WHELAN ANNOUNCES PLAN OF HANDS-OFF Government Winner in First ~ §kirmish to Test Legal- ity of “Set-Ups.” * New York, April 26 (N.Y.W.N.S.).— Contrary to first reports, the raid on the Hollywood restaurant, eleven of whose patrons were arraigned in Fed- etal court today, along with sixteen employes arrested with them early to- -@ay. was undertaken solely on the initiative of New York's prohibition aédministrator, Maurice Campbell. Washington announced tonight. And the latest enforcement wrinkle —generally taken as a test case in & drive against public drinking and the gale of “set upse”—weathered the pre- liminary court skirmish, all 27 of those arraigned before United States Commissioner O'Neill being held for @ hearing May 7. . Altogether, it was rather a drab picture for restauranteurs and hip flask toters which was presented to them by the authorities, the one cheering feature being the announce- thent by Police.Commissioner Whalen that he “certainly would not” follow “phe action of the prohibition edimints- trator in arresting patrons and sellers @f accessories.

We have not made a new “rule Or promulgated a new policy. “Campbell wants to test out the possession phase of the law in his community.. We shall leave that up to him.” Seymour Lowman, Assistant Sec- retary of the Treasury in charge of customs, Coast Guard and prohibi- tion, declared that if Campbell was arresting simple flask toters in the @bsence *of any special circum- stances he was violating orders is- sued a year ago.

"Hore Will Approve Tariff Bill If Logic Ts Followed, Is View Measure, Whatever Its Shape, Will Be Chargeable to Republican Effort, and President Can Not Escape Responsibility for Bill—Tariff Vetoes Many, Some With Disastrous Effect. By DAVID RANKIN BARBEE. President Hoover will sign the tarif? bill. That is just as good «a "guess as to say that he will veto it, and it has this advantage over the Jatter, that it stands upon solid logic. When President Cleveland was con- fronted with the situation of signing or not signing the Wilson-Gorman measure, he let it become a law with- out his signature, and in a very force- ful letter to Representative T. C. Catchings, of Mississippi, he said: “I refuse to permit myself to be sepa- rated from my party to such an ex- tent as might be implied by my veto of tariff legislation, which, though -@isappointing, is still chargeable to Democratic effort.” No matter what the present tariff bill contains—whether the debenture without the flexible provision, whether the latter and not the former, or both, it is a measure that “is still chargeable to Republican effort,” and it is inconceivable that Mr. Hoover cah and will do what Mr. Cleveland could not and would not do. He 1s not made of the stuff of which martyrs are made, and he has shown no disposition to pose as the leader of tariff reform, or any other sort of reform. While he has a stubbrn will of bis own, he has too often met defeat et the hands of Congress in the past. before he became President, to wish now to have an unfriendly legislature on his back. When the Wilson-Gorman bil) went to the White House, Mr. Cleveland received alj sorts of advice from all sorte of advisers as to what disposal he should make of that measure. Senator John M. Palmer, of Illinois— or was it Indiana?—he lived in both States and was a Republican in one and a Democrat in the other, urged him to sign the bill, in a letter that is the most sagacious bit of political Philosophy I have ever seen. “The present tariff bill contains all that your true friends in Congress were able to obtain,” he wrote old Continued on Page 4, Column 2. 24 PATIENTS oAVED IN AUSPITAL FIRE Two Nurses and Orderlies Take Elderly Persons From Blaze. FIREMEN ARE PRAISED Fire yesterday endangered the lives of 24 patients at the Meplewood Sani- tarium, Silver Spring, Md Most of the patients are elderly persons and eimost were in bed when the fire alarm was sounded at 11 o'clock in the p . Two nurses and three orderlies on duty at the time performed miracles | of strength in carrying the patients out of the building, a three-story frame structure. Miss Florence Stark was feeding a patient when she heard the alarm. She picked the patient, weighing nearly 200 pounds, up in her arms and carried her to safety. The Silver Spring Volunteer Fire Department arrived in record time and quickly brought the flames under control. The firemen arrived in time to assist in taking the last few patients out of the building. The fire was confined to the roof and third floor, burning a large hole in the roof. Firemen said that the fire would have’ spread more rapidly had the roof not been slate. Damage was estimated at approximately $1,000, covered by insurance. The fire was discovered by work- men on the East-West highway near- by. who were completing the last link in the road. They called the firemen and warned the sanitarium staff. Mrs. Susan F. Howlend, superin- tendent of the sanitarium, had just gone to bed after a night of con- tinuous service caused by the serious lliness of one of the patients. She Was roused and took command of the work of carrying out the patients. Miss Vera Stunkard, ef the Uni- \ versigy of Pennsylvania Hospital in Philadelphia, who was visiting the home of her aunt, Mrs. M. W. Whittle- sey, nearby, noticed the fire and hur- ried to the patients’ aid. Mrs. Howland praised the work per- formed by the wlunteer firemen, lauding their efficiency. The sani- tarium has 20 rooms and is a large rambling wooden structure. It is known as the old Curtis home. The biaze is believed to have started either from faulty electrical wiring or a defective fue. An investigation will be opened Monday by the building inspector’s office to determine the cause of the fire. MISSING GIRL POET FOUND UNCONSCIOUS Pajama-Clad Form Picked Up in Williamsburg Thick - et _by Surveyor. IN QUEST OF SOLITUDE Williamsburg, Va., April 26 (A-P.). Maud Nesselrodt, 21, who slipped away from her family yesterday was found early this afternoon lying unconscious in a thicket bordering the woods that surrounded her foster father’s | home. Vincent D. McManus, an erst- while showman, uneffringly led the |; searchers to the clump. of bushes where the limp body was found. Clothed in red silk pajamas, a pur- ple bathrobe, a red sweater, and «a discarded coat that belonged to her foster father, the girl was discovered less than a mile from her home near this city. Her hands and face blue with cold, and muddy high-heeled | pumps, attested to a delirious flight taken after she had risen from a sick- bed to steal away—"to be alone with her thoughts,” ,her uncle who had fathered her since infancy said. How long she had lain face down- ward in a clump of small bushes, was not known. She was removed to the farm home. She roue d to semicon- sciousness to ask for water. Her con- dition was regarded as grave by Dr. D. J. King. Convinced that the girl had not wandered far from home, Mr. Mc- Manus, who before settling in Will- lamsburg as & surveyor, was a horse- Tan in. a famous road show and had taken smal] parts in motion pictures of the West found the girl after rela- tives had practically abandoned hope of finding her in this locality. The band of searchers who had de- spaired of finding the girl was called back and following a trail picked up by McManus came upon the inert body of the girl. When Miss Nesselrodt had been brought to her homé, and physicians summoned, Mr. McManus, whose life for several years has been spent among the Sioux Indians learning their woodcraft hurriedly returned to Williamsburg, saying nothing of the part he played in the rescue of a; Continued on Page 3, Celumn 2. Man Ends Life When Bride Tells of Love for Brother Newark Marine Veteran Turns on Gas and Writes De- scription of How It Feels to Be Dying, as Household Sleeps. Newark, N. J., April 26 (N.Y. W.NS8.). Henty Keller was an emotional boy who liked to dramatize himself. When Nhe did even so small a thing as wave an arm in. conversation he did it as if he were playing to an audience. He began acting his greatest role about a month ago when he found that his bride of four months, Pior- ence Wolfert Keller, had fallen in love with his brother, Edward. Edward ‘asked Henry to give Florence,a divorce so they might marry. Henry agreed and decided on suicide, and went on dramatizing himself to the very ‘last breath. He wrote: “To whom it may in- terest; the cause of it all: I loved.gnd trusted my wife and trusted my brother. Now I hate my wife, despise my brother and sentence myself to die for having been fool enough to have ever loved * * * my ” wife. Both she and her lover (my brother) knew this afternoon that 1 intended to die tonight. They were quite pleased at the prospect, and did not trouble to conceal their elation.” Henry lived in a bo ding house. He was a clerk in the office of the Pie Bakers of America. A short while previously all, including Florence, had lived with the mother of the two boys. Henry and Edward had been in- separable for ten years. Both had enlisted in the Marine Corps. In Philadelphia, where Henry was sta- tioned, he met Florence—and married her. She came home with him to ‘Newark. Then, or so Edward, also a clerk, told the police: “A few weeks after the marriage we found that we-——myself and Flor- encé—loved one another. I told my brother so. He said he would give her a divorce on om any grounds she Continued om Page 3, Column 2. 4 9% DISTRICT HEADS REVERE OTAND ON LOAN TO ITY Support .of Capper Bill Revoked in Sympathy With Budget Bureau. $15,000,000 PLANS DEALT HEAVY BLOW Letter of Disabproval Is Given Commissioners by Col. Roop. MEASURE REQUESTS GOVERNMENT FUNDS Kansas Senator Is Notified of Action Following Two-Hour Session. By BERNARD MeDONNELL. The new board of District Commis- sioners yesterday reversed themselves on an important matter of »*ubli-« finances because the Federal Buresu of the Budget disagreed with them. Executing a right about face from the position they took at a public hearing held last week by the Senate District committee on the Capper bill providing for the loan of $15,000,000 to the District by the Federal Gov- ernment, the Commissioners, in a let- ter dispatched to the committee yes- terday, recommended unfavorable ac- tion on the bill. At the hearing last week Dr. Luther H. Reichelderfer, president of the Board of Commisioners, said that the Commissioners favored enactment of the Capper bill provided it was amended so as to eliminate the pro- vision requiring the District to pay 3%. per cent interest. annually on the loan which would be paid back, under the provisions of the Dill, at the rate Of $1,000,000 a year. ~Yttpop Presents Ob eebians.- The decision of the Budget Bureau against the measuré was conveyed to the Commissioners yesterday in per- son by.Col. J. Clawson Roop, direc- tor of the Budget Bureau, who called on the Commissioners at the District Building for a little social chat, but presented them, in the course of his visit, with a forma) letter notifying them of the bureau’s disapproval of the Capper bill because the proposal did not fit in with President Hoover's financial program. Col. Roop was closeted with the Commissioners for the better part of an hour and after he left the Com- missioners sat in executive session for about two hours, at the end of which time they had completed the draft of the letter to Senator Arthur Capper (Republican), of Kansas, chairman of the Senate District com- mittee and author of the loan Dill, in which they flatly reversec them- selves solely on the ground that the Budget Bureau did not approve of the project. There were no explana- tory statements made by the Commis- sioners when Daniel E. Garges, secre- tary of the Board of Commissioners, made public the ,letter to Senator Capper. » The Capper bill is but one spon- sored by members of the House and Senate and various local interests which would call for the disburse- ment of cash from the Federal Treas- ury. The Capper bill itself contem- plates the expenditure of $5,000,000 more than the $15,000,000 it is pro- posed to lend to the District for the development of the Municipal Center This 85,000,000 is the amount it is proposed the Federal Government shali pay the municipal government for the present District Building. That $5,000,000 would be used in the de- velopment of the Municipal Center. Cramton and Bingham Bills.

VOLUNTEERS ASKED TO JOIN MOVEMENT Mahatma Makes Strong Appeal for Martyrs. in Address. PESHAWAR IS QUIET AFTER DISTURBANCE a Gold Fields Remain Storm Centers as Strikers Burn Buildings. Bombay, India, April 26 (A.P.).— Mahatma Gandhi announced a strong move in his campaign of civil disobedience today, asserting he soon would lead a group to take posses- at Dharasana. sion of the government salt depot Previous manifestations sponsored by the Nationalist leader have cen- tered around the manufacture of salt illegally. At the-outset of his cam- paign he ruled out a suggestion that salt depots be raided, fearing that government authorities would fire on the invaders. Now Gandhi is prepared to offer his head for the cause, he told a crowd at Charvada, when he had motored from Bulsar. He said he would take with him both men and women, but only those who wore homespun cloth, had given up liquor and boycotted foreign cloth. Appeals for Martyrs. During the address the Mahatma made a strong appeal for martyrs. Teaying he would have been glad had Ramnik Nal—his first supporter— been shot or suffered a broken head instead of having been arrested. He added that he and all his volunteers would present their broken heads to the government. He concluded by saying that break- ing of the sait act alone would not bring independence, asserting that other acts would have to be violated to attain the desired end. News from other parts of India showed the country more quiet than recently. Peshawar was orderly and it was said that the fierce border tribes living about the city apparently had not been stirred by disturbances in the town. ~ But troops were sfil! on the alert, machine guns were posted at all strategic points and mar- kets were closed. Strikers Burn Buildings. The gold fields or Oorgaum re- mained a storm center. Strikers burned several buildings today and codlies employed in the mines began a general exodus to their own vil- lages. Two platoons of Assam rifies have arrived at Chittagong to aid the search for the insurgents who at- tacked the arsenal in that town last week. Unofficial reports said today that the insurgents had fled from the Hathazaro Mountains and that 22 guns, with some ammunition, had been seized by the troops.

A battle-born covenant of soldierly friendship, first sealed in British end American blood spilled 30 years ago before Tientsin, was rededieated here last night, with President Hoover and the British Ambassador sharing in the brief, colorful ceremony. The setting was the Gridiron Club dinner, with the rollicking satires and pungent wit of the news scribes put aside for the moment that old, heroic memories might be revived. Three decades ago American ma- rines and the Welsh Fusileers stormed togéther into Tientsin to rescue he- leagured foreigners from fanatical Boxer hordes. Protected by barricades of rice and sugar bags set in place by a young American engineer of their number, the “foreign devils” had waited weeks almost hopelessly for the coming of the troops.

Every one of the principal topics of the day, prohibition, prosperity, the tariff, the London naval treaty, un- employment, party discord in Con- gress and general politics were brought into the searchlight of edi- torial and reportorial criticism and in a series of humorous byplays, solu- tions to the problems were given the President, free of charge. That the Chief Executive appre- clated the assistance given him in matters of state, was indicated by his reply to the criticisms of the assem- bled newspapermen, but true to the tradition that “reporters are never present” at Gridiron Club affairs, the text of the President's remarks will never see the light of day. Among the chief items on the long and varied program presented was a skit on prohibition entitled “Little Boy Blue Nose;" an operetta on the tariff under the name of “Down in | the Sugar Barrel With: Smoot;” a pa- rade of discarded lieutenants of Mr. welcoming Claudius Huston to Never Land,” and a bur- lesque on the London parley called lieve that some one who has a griev- | ance, possibly Sachs is seeking revenge beating he received Mr. Sachs caped without serious injury. es- i “Alice in Wonderland.” with Secre- tary of State Stimson playing the not close up his small shop he would | Police be- | leading role of “Alice.” In addition to President Hoover imaginary, with Mr. | the guests of honor at the dinner.

President Harding Crashes With British Ship Off Heligoland. —-—----ee seer oo ~ DENSE FOG IS BLAMED Hamburg, Germany, April 26 (A.P.). The American liner President Hard- ing, bound for Hamburg, and making for the mouth of the River Elbe, was in collision today with the British collier Kirkwood, in a thick fog off Germany's dismantied island fortress of Heligoland. The Kirkwood, 1,674 gross tons, went down, but all her crew, with the exception of a fireman, were res- cued. The fireman is missing. The United States Lines, Inc., stated that the President Harding had been only slightly damaged and no one on her was injured. She con- tinued under her own gteam toward Hamburg, where there still was 6 dense fog. Second Collision In Few Days. The President Harding's collision with the Kirkwood was the second collision between ocean liners and smaller ships in these waters within a few days. Thursday, the speedy North Ger- man Lloyd liner Bremen, picking her way cautiously through a f of Dungeness, where the Straits of Do- ver link the channel with the North Sea, was in collision with the tankcr British Grenadier. The Bremen suf- fered a slight dent in her plates and after inspection at Southampton con- tinued her yoyage to New York. The British Grenadier, badly damaged, made port without assistance. President Harding docked finally at 10:30 p. m., after slipping slowly up the Elbe through 4 diminishing fog bank. Decline to Make Statement. Capt. John L. Beebe and United States Lines officials declined to issue any statements beyond saying that the damage to the ship, which & thought to be slight, must first be examined by an expert. Capt. Beebe remained near the spot where the Kirkwood foundered for some time in the hope of picking up the lost fireman, but the fog was so dense he was finally compelled to continue his course. Outside Cux- haven, he again hr to stop his ship until the fog cleared up. Shipping circles c¢ dressed thr'r sympathy to Capt. Beebe for the un- fortunate .accident on his first voy- age in command of the President Harding. He was previously first of- ficer of the Leviathan.

Halk of Submarine §-51 Pat Up for Sale by Navy (Associated Press.) * The hulk of the submarine 8-51, in which 33 men lost their lives after it had collided with a steam- er in 1925, was offered for sale yesterday by the Navy. On September 25, 1925, the 8-51 was on a test cruise when it was rammed and sunk by the City of Rome off Block Island, R, l. Three of the crew escaped. Efforts to raise the submarine that fall failed because of winter seas, and the following June it was hoisted to the surface and towed to New York, where the bodies were re- moved and identified. Since then the submarine has been stripped of its motors and fittings and the bare hulk is to be sold. The Navy also announced it would accept bids on five sub- marine chasers and the patrol boat Privateer. Events of the War 13 Years Ago Today APRIL 27, 1917.

Knox. Arthur N. Sager, former circuit st- torney of St. Louis end later an As- sistant United States Attorney Gen- eral, received a two-year term ior each of the three counts on which he was convicted, the first two sen- tences to run concurrently and the third to be suspended during good behavior. Judge Knox also disqualified him forever for any position of honor or trust in the United States Govern- ment. Joseph Shalleck and Edward H. Reynolds, who were convicted only 2f conspiracy—Sager wag convicted also of bribing a jJuror—were sentenced 10 two years and eighteen months, respectively. The sentences were stayed for two weeks and bail of $2,500 each con- tinued, pending appeals. Judge Knox said imposing sentence all three men for several years. was difficult because he had “ae e added that he believed there was little difference between them and so was passing almost identical sentences.

He said that war could never be eliminated until the causes of war are removed. The ambassador spoke before the final session of the annual three-day convention of American Society for International Law, held in the Wil- lard Hotél. He said he hoped the re- sults obtained at the London Naval Conference would be ‘followed by general agreements on a broader ba- sis.” Continuing, he said: “Only the perfection of the existing instrumen- talities for the peaceful settlement of international disputes will create among the people of the world the feeling that the dynamic instruments so long represented by war is replaced by pacific adjustments and that re- course to war, therefore, becomes senseless.” Praises Kellogg Pact. Speaking of the Kellogg pact, the envoy explained, “international law can justly be proud that it has been able to produce in our days a definite and exhaustive juridical formula for the general wish of mankind to see war abolished. “Diplomacy does not want to deny. however, that many evpectations have been deceived. We readily ‘ad- mit that most important questions of international law still remain un- solved and note with regret that such meetings as the recent conference called for the codification of inter- national law had but meager results.” George W. Wickersham, chairman of President Hoover's law enforcement committee and the first speaker on the program, expressed regret over the failure of the international law codification conference held recently at The Hague and briefly reviewed the London nava! limitations confer- ence. In discussing problems to be overcome, Mr. Wickersham said that nothing could be accomplished in the way of international. agreement un- til delegates learned that they must give and take. Scores National Obstinacy. “As long as a Nation sends dele- gates who are determined to put over certain points, despite concerted opposition, we can hope for noth- ing,” he added. Dr. George W. Kirchwey, former dean of the Columbia University Law School, discussed “The Genera] Trend Toward Good will Among Nations,” and predicted great progress in inter- national accord within coming years. The retiring president of the s0- ciety, James Brown Scott, presided as toastmaster. Officers were elected and business matters disposed of at earlier seion of the convention.

ADMINISTRATION IS HIT New York, April 26 (AP.).—Gov, Franklin D, Roosevelt was hailed to- night as the winning of a militant progressive Democratic party in 1932 Senator Burton K, Wheeler, of Montane, in an address at the annual Jefferson Day dinner of the National Democratic Club. Senator Wheeler said the “over- shadowing issue” before the American people was control of electric power. Me added that the Democratic party of the Nation must follew the policy of the Democrats of New York, as led by former Gov. Alfred BE, Smith and Gov. Roosevelt, and preserve the con- trol of the people. Gov. Roosevelt spoke on Thomas Jefferson. Other speakers were Mrs. Nellie Tayloe Ross, former Governor of Wyoming, and 8 Court Jus- tice John L. Walsh, who was toast- master. More than 2,000 Democrats, including several party leaders, at- tended. Urges States Rights. Gov. Roosevelt urged Democrats to preserve their adherence to the States right dogtrine of the founder of the party, as its chief distinguishing feature. Numerous national ques- tions, he said, would find solution in application of the principles of homas Jefferson. Mrs. Ross criticized the adminis- tration’s record in the first quarter of this term. She contrasted the Re- publican “rule,” which, she said, ex- pressed the political philosophy of Alexander Hamilton, with the prin- ciples of the Democratic party, found- “entirely on the political principles of Jefferson.” Prominent Democrats among the diners included former Gov. Smith, Senator Key Pittman, of Nevada; former Gov. Harry F. Byrd of Virginia, and Senators Royal 8. Copeland and Robert F. Wagner, of New York. “The country realizes,” Senator Wheeler said in his address, “that we are drifting from democracy and building up in Washington the greatest bureaucracy the world has ever seen. “It is autocratic, inefficient and in some instances corrupt. Mr. Hoover seems bent on having Congress delegate all the power conferred on it to commissions.” Jefferson Is Quoted. Senator Wheeler said Thomas Jef- ferson, founder of the Democratic party, had “called attention to the iniquity of an Executive's dodging re- sponsibility behind this sort of ber- ricade.” “History is full of instances,” he continued, “which show chiefs of gov- ernment tampering with the liberties of the people, through tie indirect mechanism of a council on a commis- sion who weuld hesitate to go so far in their own proper persons. “Obviourly, @ commission appoint- ed by the President over which he has full power of appointment and direct cherge, is going to register nothing -but the President’s will. Hits Tarif! Commission. “We have had that experience with the Tarif Commission, originally in- stituted as a fact-finding body to ad- vise Congress as to the economic value of items of protection, transmogrified under the rdney-McCumber tariff into a vehicle permitting the Presi- dent to alter the rates set by Con- greas, thereby placing in the hands of the President the power of life and death over industry.” ntending that there are ‘more unemployed than at any time in the Nation’s history,” Senator Wheeler Said the only thing dome by the ad- ministration to correct unemployment “has been the ballyhooing by the De- partments of Labor and Commerce.” He said the “only constructive bills introduced” were those by Senator Wagner (Democrat), New York, which will be taken up in the Senate on Monday. “No word of commendation has been given these bills by the admin- istration,” Senator Wheeler said, “and t of us who are on the ground know they will not be permitted to pass by a Republican Congress.” Polo Player Weds Mrs. Helen Hobbs Bride Is Daughter of For- mer Governor of Bay State. Monterey, Calif., April 26 (A.P.)— Unannounced, except to close friends, Mrs, Helen Foss Hobbs, of Boston, daughter of former Gov.

Miss Ritchie, who at 46, still was an able actress, had, until this year. directed and taken a leading part in production of the annual community Play. This social prestige was won this yeat by Mrs Palmer, 20 years younger, who had created the play's stage settings. Friends of both said the actress had expressed intense anger, of which she had frequent out- bursts, over the rising popularity of her young and beautiful friend. An invitation given to the latter, to a luncheon to which Mrs. Post was not asked, was the final straw. Their bodies, with bullets fired into Mrs. Palmer’s back, were found together Thursday, in Mrs. Palmer’s bungalow.

f Ss. « Dempsey Predicts President Will Approve $11 1,000,000 Plan House Passed. NEARS SENATE ACTION (Associated Press.) A prediction that President Hoover would approve the $111,000,000 omni- bus rivers and harbors bill came yes- terday from Chairman Dempsey, of the House rivers and harbors com- mittee, as the Senate commerce com- mittee laid plans to take up the measure next week. ie Dempsey said the legislation, which was passed by the House Friday, would not conflict with the program that the administration has laid down by which the annual outlays for rivers and harbors work would be held to the budget figure of $55,000,000. “The House bill simply authorizes appropriations for projects which will not be completed on the average in less than ten years,” Dempsey said. Sees Hoover Support. He said the annual allotment for the new projects in the bill would not exceed $11,000,000 and that they would share In the yearly appropria- tions with existing projects. Dempsey said the rivers and har- bors committee had reduced the Army board of engineers estimates on proj- ects from 350,000,000 to $111,000,000, but that an examination of the bill would show “every project has been given all that is necessary in the. Poeae of economical transporta- on.” . Asserting that he had conferred frequently with the President on the items in the bill, Chairman Dempsey said he understood that the Chief Executive “is entirely satisfied with the amount of the bill, atid realizes the many difficulties which confront- ed the committee.” . Bill to Promote Officer. . Referring to the bitter contest waged on the floor over the provision calling for federalization: of the New York State Barge Canal (Erie and Os- wego), Mr. Dempsey said: . “Apparently the House believed the argument made by the support for the federalization of these two ca- nals, for they voted, 146 to 59. nearly 3 to 1, for adoption of the project. And on the final passage of the bill there were so few members opposed to the project that they were unable to secure a record vote.” Dempsey said his committee would go before the House military com- mittee to support a bill to promote Brig. Gen. Herbert Deakyne, assistant chief of Army engineers, to the rank of a major genera! on retirement. A provision in the rivers and har- bors bill to carry that into effect was stricken out by the House. National Aid Will Talk At 1930 Y.M.C.A, Event Francis 8.

The Listening Post By CARLISLE BARGERON—~— NE naturally has a sympathetic O feeling toward Mr. Gifford Pin- chot because in all of this political hodge-rodge in Pennsylvania he js the only candidate who has no one to run with. Mr. Pinchot is running all by himself, the lone wolf, so to speak. There was a time when it looked as though all of the candidates were paired, that each one had a running mate, Mr. Francis Shunk Brown, it seemed, was running with Mr. Yabor Secretary Davis, and Senator Grundy and Mr. Pinchot were paired together in the cause of righteousness. But then Mr. W. L. Mellon, of the Grundy organization, announced he was for Mr. Grundy and Mr. Brown. »¢ s . * s HIS was a way of saying that Mr. Grundy was for Mr. Brown. And Mr. Davis is for Mr. Brown. Uniess he wants to be. for Mr. Brown, too, Mr. Pinchot is left all alone. There is still another pair, of course, one that is not readily thought of by any one save Mr. Davis, and he thinks of it nearly all the time. This is the wet pair, Mr. Phillips and Mr. Bohen. It is being said that every two votes for them means one against Mr. Davis, which is the reason Mr. Davis thinks of them so very much. ND Mr. Davis is naturally thinking more of this pair just now because Mr. Charies I. Denby, jr.. nephew of the former Secretary of the Navy, has wunder- taken to, manage the Phillips-Bohen campaign. Mr. Denby is the son-in- law of Senator Dave Reed. Inasmuch as Senator Reed is for Grundy and: Brown one would look upon his son-in-law’s action as mean there were no family ties at all. But ome must remember that it is being figured that every. two votes for the wet independent ticket is one vote against Mr. Davis. So Mr. Denby is apparently out to get as many two votes for the wet ticket as he possibly can. ’ e° e . . HIS Was intended; however, as a lament for Mr. Pinchot and to dig him up a running mate. It seems that Mr. Webster G. Drew. the treasurer of Bradford, Pa., is also running for senator, on a pilat- form of holding the big interests down but not being exactly against them, Little has been heard of Mr. | fre Drew and this is strange. The gentleman, accor to his advance notices, weighs pounds and is very much in earnest about this senatorial business. He can't be any more-in earnest than Mr. Pin- chot is in his candidacy for governor so why should they not pair up? Their platform could be the earnest- ness with which they are trying to get in.

Apollo Soucek hopes to pilot to an altitude of nearly & miles is ready for delivery, and the flier’s effort to regain the Jand plane record for the Navy may begin this week. To regain the land plane altitude record, Lieut. Soucek must take the small ship to an altitude of 42,088 feet, 100 meters higher than the present record of 41,760, held by a German flier. s Lieut. Soucek established the pres- ent seaplane record of 38,560 feet in the same plane, which is of the Apache type, built as an experimental! plane for the Navy in 1925. That type was discarded as unfit for use as a regular fighting plane anc has been converted into an altitude ship.

SUPPORT IS DEMANDED By CARLISLE BARGERON. The political twist that the Ku Klux Klean seems to be taking in the South is giving Southern senators as well as Southern members of the House serious pause. ‘As. yet they have not been able to put their hands on just what is happening, but they are growing more suspicious of the organization e ay. Its lobbyists here and klan lead- ets in the South have @ way, as the Southernefs express it, of bob- bing up every now and then to get the administration's irons out of the A case in point is that of the pending nomination of Judge John J. Parker, of North Carolina, for the Supreme Court. The Democrats think that the ad- ministration’s irons are in the fire in this matter, and the Republican senators are ready to agree with them. The regulars from all of the doubtful States are up for reelection this year, and still others have been protesting loudly and strongly over the judge's appointment, insisting that his confirmation means the loss of their State to the Republican cause because of the Negro opposi- tion to the appointee. Dilemma Grows Painful. These regulars have been trying with every entreaty and device at their command to have his name withdrawn. And particularly have they become more feeling in the mat- ter the last few days because the sit- vation has now developed to the point where they ere in a stew if they do vote to confirm the judge and they are in one if they do not, which is to say that two opposing fires have developed back home. In the refusal of the President to yield, their em- barrassment can only be relieved or at least eased by the Democrats con- 4 the two-year-old Shipstead bill to firming Judge Parker. The majority of the Southern Dem- ocrats et present consider that this is not the political thing for them to do Their idea ts to let the Republicans stew. Some of them intend to vote for confirmation, of course, but the majority, according to the present count, do not. Now with the situation like thi« who should bob up to work upon them. but the agents of the Ku Klux Kian. After they have shaped their strategy and just at a time when they are fully enjoying themselves these agents put in appearance with demands that they support Judge Parker. Inasmuch as the Klan itead- ers are astute politicians these South- ern senators quite naturally are won- dering just what the purpose of the Klan is. Klan Becomes Lobby. In this particular instance, it 1s pointed out that support of Parker in view of the Negro opposition would be right in line with the Elan’s pro- fessed principles. : But being practical politicians themselves the senators have not it recent years looked upon the klan as an organization of principles but 4&4 very practical political organization The general impression is that the klan exists only in skeleton form now, that it ts, indeed, not much more than a lobbying organization. at least in so far as its official frame- work is concerned. That its agents here are lobbyists is not open to question. And it is just as true tha: their activities have not been con- fined to 100 per cent Americanism and other ideals listed in the kian decalogue. For example, it is hard to see just where the question of whether the Senate or the Federal Trade Commission should investigate the power trust a year or s0 ago squares with 100 per cent American- ism but the klan lobby here at the time was most active in diverting the investigation to the Trade Com- mission. Democrats Are Wary. The klan lobby’s hand was fre- quently seen, too, in the recent tariff fight and on the administration side It is a dull day, in fact, when the klan agents do not have business 11 the Capitol when there is no discus- sion of or legislation bearing on 100 per cent Americanism. And it so happens that there are Southern Republicans here in the klan lobby for Parker now. The Southern Democrats—that is, the regulars—became very wary of the klan when it bolted and went over to the Hoover cause in 1928. At that time Claudius H. Huston, now Republican national chairman, and his protege, Col. Horace Mann, made some very valuable political contacts with the klan. | AD SPEAKER . - o; ~ ewe % CHARLES M.

SENATE REPORT fll INJUNCTION POWERS Court Authority in Labor Disputes Is Limited by Shipstead Act. re JUDGE SHIFTS FAVORED (Associated Press.) A subcommittee of the Senate ju- diciary committee yesterday approved limit jurisdiction of courts in issuing injunctions in labor disputes. The subcommittee at the same time approved the proposal! of Senator Van- denberg (Republican), Michigan, to permit change of judges considering contempt complaints on demand of the defendant in cases growing out of attacks made outside of court on the character or conduct of the judge. The committee incorporated the Vandenberg bill in a bill introduced by Senator Shipstead, of Minnesota, in December, 1927. Statement by Norris. Senator Norris (Republican), Ne- braska, chairman of the committee, said that the bill as approved would “outlaw yellow dog contracts.” if en- acted, and would “make the power of injunctions work both ways, as it does not now.” The Vandenberg bill was introduced last September, following the widely discussed case of the Cleveland Press, in which that newspaper criticized a judge for granting an injunction, was cited for contempt and found guilty. the decision later being reversed by the Ohio Supreme Court. The bill approved would invalidate “yellow dog’ contracts. Mr. Norris ex- plained, by providing that no promise or agreement contrary to the public policy outlined in the act should be a ground for granting legal relief Such contracts in which the work? agrees not to join labor unions while in the employ of the company, are “against that policy,” Mr. Norris said. and consequently violation ‘of them would not be grounds for injunction if the bill were enacted Specifications of Bill. The bill would specifically prohibit injunctions in labor disputes to pre- vent any of the following actions: Ceasing or refusing to perform any work or to remain in any relation of employment; becoming or remaining @ member of any labor organization, or of any employers’ organization; paying strike or unemployment bene- fits or insurance; aiding any person participating in a labor dispute »j any lawful means; giving publicity to the facts of a labor dispute or as- sembling peaceably to organize. The bill would require that before issuing an injunction, the court es- tablish that greater injury would be inflicted upon the complainant oy denial, than would be inflicted upon - = esas 3 ae ee ee eee ee oe ABASH ACQUIESCES NV RULING OF {6.0 First Major Line to Accept Consolidation Plan of Commission.

Ys ~ HOOVER PLAN ASSAILED ‘Repudttcan leaders of the House are Capsidering a compromise between the House and Senate sugar rates in ‘pending tariff bill in the hope of gilding representatives of the beet Sugar States in line and at the same tite handing a small sop to the American consumer. The ‘proposal under consideration igs fix the sugar duty at $220 per 109 | pounds, instead of $2.40, as car- a in the House bill, and adppted by the Senate. “Representatives from States where beets are produced in large tities are disposed to insist upon the higher rate catfried in the bill as me say the: House.

He has . stomach, I! am sure, for what bh: ened to Mr. Cleveland, who, if he had followed the advice of Senator Palmer, might have kept his hold on his party and prevented it from running hog-wiid on free silver three years later. The bill became a law with his tacit ap- proval, It might not have been a tariff reform measure, but it was a Democratic measure, and had the President signed it with the same flair that Mr. Roosevelt signed bills he did not like, we might have been spared many ills. Mr. Hoover can not escape respon- sibility for this tariff bill. His party ‘has written it, bad as it is, in re- sponse to his appeal, and without his public interference. Congressional elections are just a few months /ahead, and as usually happens in an _off-year, the Republicans are going to lose some seats. If he vetoed the tariff, and gave stout, honest rea- sons for doing so, the reaction from the voters might be worse than Will Wood and Jim Watson now antici- |pate. It would be terrible for Mr. | Hoover to have a Democratic House ‘the last two years of his first term. That adumpbrates sleepless nights. | Passed by Opposition. | Presidents aforenow have vetoed tariff bills. but in every instance ex- /cept one it was the bill that was writ- (‘ten by the opposing party, and the veto was simply a gesture to keep the ‘record straight. Thus Mr. Wilson ve- toed the emergency tariff bill passed by a Republican Congress in the cios- ing weeks of his administratioon, and |gave a very sound reason for his ac- tion. This bill was passed to give agriculture relief, and Mr. Wilson said ‘it would not do that, and proved it with a table of figures and with un- ‘answerable logic—unanswerable from a Democratic standpoint. The fact ‘that the bill was later passed and ‘signed by President Harding with- out batting an eye, did not alter the [case at all Agriculture said it did inot cure ite annual colic, and its | flag-bearer, Senator Borah, persuaded |Mr. Hoover in midcampaign to pledge ‘himself to @ revision of the tariff \ that not even Chet Gray, the high- | powered attorney for the poor farmer, | could pick a flaw in. Much as Mr. Hoover admires Mr. 'Wilson, and much as he loves the | poor, down-trodden farmer, it does ‘not seem reasonable to think that 'now he is going to say with a veto ‘that Mr. Wilson's veto was correct, or ‘that he and a Republican Congress ‘are not men enough to concoct a pain |killer for suffering agriculture. Congress is even now once more ‘reaching out for power that belongs to the Executive, and it always eases | into a better position to grab this power when a tariff bi is under _consideration. This is a potent rea- 'son why Mr. Hoover is unwilling to 'succumb to the flattery that always | goes with a presidential veto.

President Taft vetoed five Demo- cratic tariff bills in a row, His friends | and partisans say that that is the | best part of his administration. Of course, that is a nasty dig, more po- etic than truthful, but it just goes to \show what a tariff bill will do with |a President's reputation. If the truth | were known, Judge Taft did not like ' the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill any more than Senator Borah did, but he felt that as the leader of his party he was committed to that bill, to ita defense if need be, and he accepted the full responsibility of his leadership, even to the point of defending the worst tariff bill that ever came out of a legislative hopper. And when the country turned on him and his party, and elected a Democratic Congress as a protest ferninst the outrageous tar- iff bill, and Oscar Underwood and his low-tariff boys began to mutilate the Payne-Aldrich law, President Taft spent one whole summer thinking up things to say in his veto messages that would make the Democrats look small and the Republicans large. That was the happiest summer of his dear life, but every veto message made a hundred thousand or more votes for the Democrats, and they were sor- rowful when summer ended. It is a long jump from /Taft back to the next tariff veto, which came from that sterling Democrat, Andrew Johnson. One of the Republicans who hated Johnson with a private hate all his own was Senator Zach Chandler, of Michigan, to whom goes the dubious honor of joining busi- ness and congressional legislation in- unholy wedlock. Chandler owned some copper mines in Minnesota somewhere up on Lake Superior, and they were not paying so well. If cop- per could be put on the dutiable list with a top heavy duty, his mines would double, treble, maybe quad- ruple in value. At least that is what Kentucky College Chapel Destroyed $350,000 Loss Suffered in Blaze That Visits Georgetown. Georgetown, Ky., April 26 (A.P.).— The Georgetown College Chapel Building was @estroyed by fire to- day with loss to buildings and con- tents estimated at approximately $350,000. Members of the faculty and 350 students, attending chapel exercises at the time the fire was dis- covered, escaped after saving a few valuable books and paintings kept in the building. The building, a two-story bricx | Structure, housed several college de- | Partments, the chapel and the coi- lege library. The fire was discovered by children playing in the yard. Prof. Robert T. Rinton, who was conduct- ing the chapel exercises, instructed the students to walk out, and asked & few to assist in taking the naint- ings from the chapel walls on the second floor. Other students carried & few books from the library, includ- ing a Bible said to be worth $15,000. The loss was partially covered by insurance. Kidnaper of Bristow Executed by Soldiers Mexico City, April 26 (A.P.).—A Tepic dispatch to El Universal today stated that Cruz Delgado, leader of the gang which kidnaped J. E. Bris- tow and held him captive for several] weeks, had been captured and exe- cuted by fedéral troops. His brother. Francisco, also was reported to have been captured and executed. Bristow, an American oil operator, was released yf the bandits April 9 on payment of & ransom. On April 13 it was reported that eight of his kidnapers had been slain by troops. * a a ee ee ee ee ee oe Ee ee THE WASHINGTON POST: OOVER'S APPROVAL OF TAR SUNDAY, “APRIL 27100000 es IFF BILL DEEMED b many Republican newspapers of that day said, and I have taken the pains to read them. Vetoed by Johnson. There was much opposition in Con- gress to the of this bill, even stanch protection publicans think- ing that there waa a sable gentieman hidden somewhere in it. Old Zach was a rough-riding senator, and, as, usual, had his own way in this mat- ter. His bill went through and by the time it got to President Johnson a great many protests had reached the White House against it. Andy sat down and read them all); he read the bill; he read reports on copper production in this country and on the importations of copper and the grow- ing uses Of copper in industry. Then he semeusbeed that back in the hills of Tenneswee there was a sovereign remedy known as ras which even now is used in certain cases of throat disorders, and also was a standby of the old ladies in dyeing their woolen cloths. In his own hard youth, I make no doubt he often wore copperas breeches, which every loyal Tennessean was proud to do. Tennessee began to go Republican the moment her honest yeomanry forsook rough brown jeans for the more ele- gantly woven stuffs that came from Uncle Joe Grundy’s mills. Contemplating the increase in the price of copperas that would natural- ly come from the high duty on cop- per ore; having in mind his first duty to his old friends in the .Democratic party and his old neighbors in the Tennessee hills, Andrew Johnson vetoed old Zach's tariff bill. Where- upon that gentleman just smiled a wicked smile and told Congress that “the dirty traitor in the White House is up to his old tricks,” and the veto was overridden, the only instance in history where the veto of a tariff bill was not sustained. When you compare this veto mes- sage of Andrew Johnson's with his great veto mé@ssages on constitution- al questions, you at once realise that even a great man can not write |well on a little subject. The tariff veto makes sorry reading, even to this day. Historic Vetoes by Johnson. These are all minor matters be- side the historic vetoes of John Ty- ler, which rank very high among | presidential messages, and in couragé ;and courtesy are not surpassed by jany. They saved the credit of the |country when it was near bank- ruptcy, and they saved the author- ity of the presidency when it was at its lowest decline. Without his own seeking he was thrown into @ bitter controversy with Congress over the question of who was master, and when he sought to maintain, and did maintain, the rights of the Presidency as the head of the Gov- ernment he was threatened with im- peachment, It is one of the saddest and most lamentable chapters in our national history. Henry Clay, who led the fight on Tyler. using John Quincy Adams as a white shirt front, had t® retire temporarily from the Senate, and after that experience he was never quite able to reach the aim of his insatiate ambition. As for Adams, it is the blackest spot on his public life, but he suc- ceeded in doing one thing very ef- fectually. He wrote John Tyler into history in such a manner that he has never been able to throw off the stigma Adams burned into his char- acter. This incident, no doubt, has often deterred our Presidents from coming to an open break with Con- gress and from vetoing bilis that their judgment said should not be approved History has been unkind to John Tyler, just because of the unfortu- nate position his tariff vetoes placed him in; but eventually. he will emerge, just as Andrew Johnson is emerging, and will take his place among our strongest and stoutest Presidents. Destiny, me judice, will place him above Henry Clay and John Quincy Adams. Let us see how this works out. Treasury Was Depleted. When Tyler became President he found the Treasury depleted gnd the country bankrupt. Van Buren had taken no measures to correct this. True, he inherited a very bad situa- tion from the second Jackson ad- ministration, which grew out of land speculation and flat money and the destruction of the National Bank. Not only was industry paralyzed and agriculture depressed, but some of the States began to repudiate their debts. Mississippi commenced it, and was followed by Indiana, Illinois, Pennsylvania and Michigan. Sergt. 8. Prentiss, the famous orator, stumped Mississippi against repudiation, and when the issue went against him he moved out of the State, saying he would not rear his children in such an atmosphere. (Those debts have never been paid, and just the other day they were discussed in the Brit- ish Parliament, where the issue wes raised of not paying the British war debt to America until these repudi- ated bonds, held by British citizens, were redeemed.) Tyler's first problem was to restore the credit of the country so that business could get on an even keel again. The States had a combined debt of $200,000,000, most of it wildly and wastefully accumulated in an orgy of spending for public improvements. This was Whig policy and it had the effect of making the Democrats ada- mant against all internal improve- ments. Debt will make you that way, sometimes. * “It is extremely difficult to carry any scheme whatever that promises relief.” wrote Secretary of the Navy Upshur to his old Whig friend, Judge Beverly Tucker, of Virginia. “The moneyed interest is against relief. (This he underscored.) At this mo- ment this city is filled with agents from Wall street who are endeavoring to defeat every arrangement of the currency question. So long as they can keep things in their present state money will be valuable, and they have money. This is another sore evil against which the administration has to contend. The hostile influences are innumerable, and it will be wonderful indeed if we resist them all.” Roosevelt Let Tariff Alone, Theodore Roosevelt felt this pres- sure when he wanted to revise the tariff and at a memorable confer- loan of @60,000,000; credit as collateral. The had not since 18338 when Clay's ‘“comprom tariff? was put through to quell the nullification revolution in South Carolina and Georgia. bill was passed that made consider- able changes in the rates, lifting them an average well above 20 per cent. But it failed to do anything about the land sales, and so when it came to President Tyler he vetoed it, in one of the most moderate, well tempered and carefully reasoned messages written by any of our Presidents. “It is * * * In the power of Con- gress,” said he, “to lay duties as high as its discretion may dictate for the necessary uses of the Government without infringing upon the act of 1833 1 do not doubt that the exigencies of the Government do re- quire an increase of the tariff duties above 20 per cent, and I as little doubt that Congress may, above as well as below that rate, so discrimi- nate as to give incidental protection to manufacturing industry, thus to make the burdens which it is com- ange to impose upon the people or the purposes of Government pro- ductive of a double benefit. This, most reasonable opponents of pro- tective duties seem willing to con- cede, and, if we may judge from the manifestations of public opinion in all quarters, this is all that the man- ufacturing interests really require.” Public Lands Discussed. But there is a yet wider range to this question which Congress must take into consideration. “OT this universal acquiescence, and the har- mony and confidence of the many other benefits that will certainly re- sult from it, I regard tre suspension of the law for distrbuting the pro- ceeds of the sales of the public lands as an indispensable cofdition. This measure is, in my judgment, called for by a large number, if not a great majority. of the people of the United States; by the state of the public credit and finances; by the critical posture of our various foreign rela- tions; and, above all, by the most sacred of all duties—public faith. The act of September last (1841, Clay’s own bill) which provides for the distribution, couples it insep- arably with the condition that it shall cease—first, in»scase of war; second, as soon as and so long as the rate of duties shall for any reason whatever be raised above 20 per cent. Nothing can be more clear, ¢xpress, or impera- tive than this language.” Not having a two-thirds majority by which it could override the veto, Congress passed another tariff bill with the same rider attached and Tyler vetoed it, with another mes- Sage that argues the question like a gteat constitutional lawyer addressing the Supreme Court. Three unan- sWerable points he made in this veto. I use the word “unanswerable,” for neither Clay nor Adams nor the Whig majority of Congre s ever attempted to answer them. Their only reply was a floodgate of abuse that is unparallelled in our political his- tory. Subjects Were Incongruous. “1. The bill unites two subjects 'which, so far from having any affin- ity to one enother,; are wholly incon- gruous in their character. It is both a revenue and an appropriation bill It thus imposes on the executive, in the first place, the necessity of either approving that which he would reject, or rejecting that which he might oth- erwise approve. This is a species wv! constraint to which the judgment of the executive ought not, in my opin- ion, to be subjected. “2. While the Treasury is in a state of extreme embarrassment, requiring every dollar which it can make avail- able, and when the Governmént has not only to lay additional taxes, but to borrow money to meet pressing demands, the bill proposes to give away a fruitful source of revenue— which is the same thing as raising fm (, i$ not necessary to have had an Accour* at this Eank to Forrow & Easy to Pay $1,200 $100.00 $6,000 $500.00 THE MORRIS PLAN BANK Under Supervision U. 5.

A third objection remains be urged, which would be sufficient itself to induce me to return the bill to the House with my objections. By uniting two subjects so incongru ous as tariff and distribution it in- evitably makes the fate of the one dependent upon that of the other in future contests of party. Can any- thing be more fatal to the merchant or manufacturer than such an ailli- ance?” This last objection, the union of industry to a party, Tyler argues with great force and clarity, but it has no weight now, except with tariff re- formers, since the tariff has been wedded to both the old parties and protection is a shibboleth which each is proud to shout. Veto Created Storm. The veto message, = qo by every member of ngress, td storm of noise, if nothing else, that whipt about the portals of the White House. “The elements are all in motion about me,” John ler wrote his old friend, Col. Robert Mo- Candlish, of Williamsburg, after the first veto, “and yet 1 labor on in the faithful discharge of my duties, with- out affected by them; or, if the attacks of the malignants come to my knowledge, 1 only hear them to de- spise them. I am told that one of the madcaps talks of im hment. Did you ever expect to see your old friend under trial for bigh crimes and misdemeanors?’ The high crime of sustaining the Constitution of the country I have committed, and w this I plead guilty. The high crime of arresting the lavish donation of 4 source of revenue af the moment that the Treasury is bankrupt. of that also I am guilty; and the high crime of daring to have an opinion of my own, Congress to the contrary not- withstanding, I plead guilty aiso to that; and if these be impeachab!l* matters, why then I ought to be tm- peached; but be assured that this is the full extent of my offending. But, to bé serious, did you ever expect that the State-rights men of the Whig party were to surrender all their long-cherished opinions at the dicta- tion of the National Republicans (Democrats)? Did you expect that Clay would have led off the attack on his own ‘Compromise’ bill of 1838, and his distribution act of 1841?” “The Clay men are afraid to im- peach the President,” Upshur wrote his old friend. Judge Tucker. You can imagine him fattening out his quill pen as he underscored that word “afraid.” When the second veto came before Congress, John Quicy Adams moved that it be referred to a select com- mittee. This is the first and only in- stance.in our history when such ®@ thing was done. Henry A. Wise, ot Virginia, and Caleb Cushing. of Massachusetts.- probably the ablest intellect that has represented New England in Congress, opposed refer- ence in very able speeches. were Whigs at that time, but Adams had his way. and a committee ol eleven, with Adams as chairman, was appointed by the hostile speaker. Committee Was Divided. The committee divided immediate- ly into three parts—Adams and seven adherents forming the majority; In- gersoll and Roosevelt, of New York. a second séction; and Gilmer, oi North Carélina, the third; and brought in three reports. Two of these reports, fron the minority, sus- tained Tyler; the major report, writ- ten by Adams himself, condemned him in unmeasured terms. Communing with himself at this time, in his intimate diary, Adams wrote: “My mind is in the condition of a ship at sea in a hurricane, sus- pended by an instantaneous calm.

\ M FH SMITH COMPA BARRED BY VIRGINIA State Corporation Board Restrains Operations on Ground of Fraud. $1,000,000 WAS INVESTED Special to The Washington Post. Richmond, Va., April 26.—Finding that the evidence in the case indicates fraud, intentional or unintentional, the State Corporation Commission to- day issued a permanent injunction restraining the F. H. Smith Co. of Washington, D. C., and F. H. Smith Co., of Virginia, Inc., ite agents or of- ficers, from advertising, selling oF promoting securities of any kind or description in the Commonwealth of Virginia. The Security Houde is re- ported to have been capitalized at $30,000,000 Evidence previously brought out in successive hearings since December revealed that more than $1,000,000 of the F. H. Smith Co. securities are owned by Virginia people. The case against the company and its Virginia Better Trade Associations, ~one of the largest securities cases in- | volving charges of fraud ever heard in Virginia. Investigation of the activities of the Smith Co. began last May, after charges of irregular practices against the company was voiced by "Senator Smith W. Brookhart, of Iowa. In December a Washington grand jury indicted officials of the com- pany, including Daniel R. Crissinger, who was comptroller of the currency under President Harding; Representa- tive Prederick N. Zihiman, of Mary- land, and other officers. An indict- ment was also found against the corporation itself. No finding was made by the Com- mission as to the present or ultimate value of securitiés sold by the com- panies, as the investigation was con- fined to practices only. Permission was granted in the order for the defendants to apply for reinstatement despite the fact that the counse] for the State claimed to have proven that the companies con- ducted one of the most deceptive security sales advertising campaigns ever waged in Virginia. The Commission’s action was the result of an-action entered by C. V. Werne, of Richmond, manager of the Virginia Better Trade Association.

SNAKE PARABLE DRAWN Miami, Fla., April 26 (A.P.).—Crim- inal Court Judge Paul D. Barns had under advisement tonight arguments on a demurrer to a petition seeking the padiocking of the palatial win- ter home of Al (Scarface) Capone on Palm Island here. A hearing on the petition for which Many witnesses had been summoned was recessed suddenly this morning after counsel for both sides argued oved the demurrers. Judge .Jarns in- dicated. he might decide on the mat- ter during the coming week. He said he wished to stucg the papers thoroughly. The petition seeking to padlock the Capone home as a nuisance was filed, by State's Attormey N. Vernon Haw- thorne last Tuesday. State and de- fense witness lists showed the names of many prominent residents of Miami. Nuisance Charge Denied. In the courtroom today were Ca- pone, his wife, Mae Capone; Frankje Newton, recently convicted of pos- session of liquor after a raid on the Capone home March 20; Frank Gal- latt, resident agent for the home, an‘ John Capone, brother of the gangster All were named defendants in the Petition, as was Ralph Capone, who now is in Chicago. A packed court room heard the argument of the attorneys. Capone himself, attired in a brown suit and with a huge diamond flashnig from his left hand, had with him in addi- tion to his wife, their 1l-year-old boy. “Sonny.” Attorneys for the gangster denied Capone had been directing and main- taining bis home here as a nuisance Defendants in the petition, they said were in no way connected with crim- inal acts charged. They pointed out that Capone was in Philadelphia for ten months recently and was in Chi- cago when deputies raided the home and seized a quantity of liquor. “Capone is charged with no crime; he is not under indictment and has @ perfect right to live in Florida,” declared Vincent Giblin, one of Ca- pone’s counsel. State Bitter in Retort. State’s Attorney Hawthorn retorted that “it is no crime to allow a. rattle- enake to live, but if you allow one of them to roam loose in your yard, where it may bite children and other persons, any court in the world will declare it a nuisance and authorize steps to abate it.” Capone’s attorneys denied allegu- tions that he or those connected with him have caused Miami to be known as a den of crime and criminals or that his home has been used as a harbor for gangsters and racketeers. Today's court episode followed closely that of yesterday when Fed- eral Judge Halsted L. Ritter made permanent an injunction restraining sheriffs of certain Florida counties from arresting Capone and sending him out of the State without war- rants. The order to the sheriffs was given by Gov. Doyle E. Carlton shortly after Capone was released from prison at Philadelphia.

SCHOOLS IN CAPITAL REOPEN TOMORnOW Easter Recess Concluded, Pupils Will Embark on Final Term. COMPETITIVE DRILL DUE Marking the end of the Easter holl- days, school bells will ring again to- morrow morning. Approximately 77,000 children, arm- ed with books, will crowd the early morning street cars and wend their way back to classrooms. The Easter vacation began on Good Friday, and the ten days’ interlude was marked by church going and recreation. Studious pupils and others who should have been studious during the school term, devoted some of the holidays to studying. Fear of spend- ing some of the summer vacation in school encouraged the less studious to study overtime. Activities at the Franklin Admin- istration Building have been virtu- ally at a standstill during the holi- days. The ordeal of returning to school tomorrow will be mitigateu w a ius extent by the fact that the regi- mental competitive drill takes place tomorrow afternoon in the Wilson Memorial Stadium at Central High School. Next to the competitive drill of all high school cadet com- panies this is the most important cadet event of the school year. The competitive drill will be held on June 3 in the Washington Baseball Sta- dium. LO . .§397.70 235.50 Campaign Is Planned for Second Week in May to: Raise That Sum.

They will come from every State in the Union as delegates representing 1,700 cham- bers of commerce and trade associa- tions making up the constituent membership of the national organiza- tion. A heavy program of work has been laid out for the conference. There will be five general sessions at which the questions that bulk largest on the business horizon will be brought for- ward. The first general session will be de- voted to a broad survey of the imme- diate future, the difficulties con- fronted and the économic pitfalls to be avoided. At this session the cen- tral theme of the meeting, “What's Ahead for Business,” will be empha- sized. The second session, will appraise the work that has been done in the di- rection of business stabilization and will survey the possibilities of effec- tive, concerted action in planning for the future on a national scale.

The second general session, at which the possibilities of planning and maintaining business stability will be considered, promises one of the most interesting and significant features of the whole meeting.

ITY CHEFS FAVOR “TINDALL RETENTION ‘District Commissioners, in : Report to Congress, Indorse Plan. SERVICE RECORD CITED . Formal indorsement of the reten- tion of Dr. William Tindall, veteran District employes, in active service, Was given by the District Commis- ‘@ioners yesterday in a report sent to Congress. Unless there is legislative exten- ‘dion of his term of active service, Dr. ‘Tindall will automatically be retired, - under the law, on August 20 because "@ his advanced age, although there ‘ie no question of the doctor’s ability t do his work efficiently and of his .Walue ‘to the District government as @n active employe. “Dr. Tindall,” the new board states, ‘has given the District of Columbia, Both under the present form of gov- @mnment and under previous forms af government, loyal and efficient @rvice. He is now 86 years of age @nd is active, both mentally and Physically, and if his service with the District of Columbia is extended, as @uthorized by this bill, it is believed that he will be able to perform, for Some time to come, the good services Row rendered. “While special legislation of this ‘character is unusual, the Commis- ‘sloners feel that the very large pub- lic sentiment in favor of Dr. Tindall Would justify a special consideration of his case.” Indorsement of the bill to extend active service of Dr. Tindall was but “Ohne of several measures approved by the Commissioners in reports sent to Congress yesterday. They declined to express any opinion on a measure to increase the salaries of the Commniis- Sioners to 810,000 a year. Present Salaries are $9,000. None of the other Bills reported on was of major im- portance. . Shad Bake Planned By Board of Trade Members and Friends to Hold Event May 24 at Sherwood Forest. Plans have been almost completed for the annual shad bake of the Washington Board of Trade to take place Saturday, May 24, at Sherwood Forest, Md. it was announced yes- terday by the committee in charge of the event Board of Trade members and their friends will leave Washington at 9 o'clock in the morning. Two dinners will be served to accommodate the large crowd expected. Amusement features of the day will include box- ing tournaments, golf, billiards, pool, tennis. baseball, swimming, fishing, . ‘ ee oe eee: _ te on ee when we say of some particular individual that he can never be replaced, that there is nobody who can fill his shoes. But there is more than sentiment involved when such a statement ia made about Dr. Will- lam Tindall. Consider his case. Dr. Tindall, now 84 years old, has been in the service of the District government for 61 years. He has seen the city evolve from a muddy village to a magnificent world capital, and he has seen the form of its gov- ernment undergo three major changes. In 1869, when he began his service with the city. Dr. Tindall was secre- tary to the mayor. In 1871, there was a change. The city was ruled by a governor and an assembly, and an exciting time that was, too. Then, in 1878, was established what we now have—government by a commission of three. A city’s history and affairs, Dr. Tindall is now chief of the city’s bureau of information. Somebody else, of course, might be able to carry the title, but certainly there is nobody who could provide the same service. Realizing this, the Commissioners have moved to prolong the old gen- tleman'’s career. Under the terms of the retirement law. he is scheduled to be dropped in August. Chairman Capper, of the Senate District com- mittee, has introduced a bill to save him. This measure authorizes the Commissioners to continue Dr. Tin- dall in the service, and the Commis- U SUALLY it is sentiment talking HUMAN encyclopedia of the | CAPITAL ECHOES By EDWARD T. FOLLIARD. N the war between the States, Dr. Tindall was a soldier in the Union Army. His favorite anecdote con- cerns an e he had while he was stationed at Fort Monroe. As he was walking through the for; one day, Private Tindall saw a iaan approaching on horseback. Present- ly, the man and the borse were along- side, the man’s long legs sticking out from the horse’s flanks in a fashion that was almost ludicrous. In passing, the horseman'’s knee struck Private Tindall on the «hould- er and almost knocked him down. Turning, the Horseman grinned, and mumbled an apology. It was President Abraham Lincoin. « > * > Congress has reached what, in my opinion, is the height of demagoguery. In writing to‘his farmer constitu- ents, he deliberately misspells words.

In the first place, jealousy, as one | of the elemental passions, is most dis- | played by those of limited mentality, training and culture. One of the chief reasons that Frances Stevens Hall was acquitted of the charge of having murdered her reverend husband and his choir-singing paramour, was the unshakable conviction of a _ great many people, including the jury, that Mrs. Hall was too cultured a woman to be moved to savagery by jealousy. boating, bowling, horseshoe pitching. | quoits, trapshooting, movies end hiking over 750 acres of land.

By FRANCES M’DONALD ance, to reason, to restrain, The better bred of two individuals is the less pugnacious, the more poised. The one who hurls the plate is the more ele- mental and the less mental of the two. Lydia tells us: “When I see my husband smiling at. his partner at a dance I could just scream, even when I have just been smiling at my own partner. And it makes me all the more furious to know that my husband feels no anger whatever over anything I do. When we start for home he always says, “Well, you had a fine time, didn’t you?” and I can hardly answer, I am s0 convulsed with rage. What can I do? Should I stop going out to dances? And of course the last thing on earth Lydia should do is to stop going out. What she needs is to go out and to mingle with her kind un- | til she is as civilized by contacts as her husband is. Lydia is inferior to her husband in training, of mental- ity, or both. She needs social experi- ence. She needs to grow. Jealousy had its place in the days when there was keener competition for mates, back in the stone age, but today only the elemental, the un- stable and the untrained have brain- storms through jealousy. Or at least that is our*epinion. If you are jeal- ous, your opinion is very different. And your opinion of our opinion is simply terrible. However, we will print it, if it will help poor Lydia.

New York, April 26.—Is affiliation with some church a necessary part of the structure of a permanent and The Rev. Walter R. Bowle of Grace Episcopal Church, who announced last week that he would demand a pledge of church association from couples who came to him to be married, maintains that it is. In his opinion, the ideals of the church, acknowledged by a bridal couple’s desire for a religious cere- mony, will enable them to navigate out of the divorce court. This pre- nuptial contract is, in fact, his par- church bodies far and wide, to the extent that some of them have re- cently provided courses of sex in- struction for young people, indorsed birth control and issued manifestoes defining more closely their attitude toward divorce. “Some religious affiliation en- ables young people to overcome the problems and friction which often arises in married life, and gives them | courage to make adjustments and go | on,” Dr. Bowte said. “There is, of | course, no question of exacting a religious contract for the purpose of | building up a congregation. It is an experiment. and we shall see how it works out.” In the controversy which has arisen as a result of this action the whole |issue of the churches’ influence as |a stabilizer in family life has been |}under review. Both laymen and |churchmen, representing all shades of opinion, found things to say on the subject. Dr. Christian F. Reisner, Methodist | pastor of Broadway Temple, main- |tains that “the finest and most suc- |cessful homes are those which have la strong interest and membership in some church.” “I have never married a couple,” ihe said, “that I did not question |closely about religious beliefs. of ;course, I would never refuse to marry lanybody on that account, nor would \I care to exact a pledge of church |attendance from them, but I always impress on them the vital necd of Many of them ‘such an association \I have afterward taken into my o'vn church.” In full sympathy with Dr. Bowle's j\aims is Dr. William Houghton, of Calvary Baptist Church, but he too |would “dislike making church mem- | bership a requirement.” “In regard to such pledges, I feel he is worse off than if he had never Again. if a minister |down to the city clerk to get their Rabbi Jonah Wise, of Central Syna- gogue said: “Since people desire to be married by @ minister, they feel some sense of loyalty to the institution con- cerned. That loyalty can be fostered and directed, but it can not be coerced.” “I think the idea is a good one,” said Dr. Ralph W. Sockman, pastor of Madison Avenue Methodist Church, WYOMING APTS. CAFE 2022 Columbia Road. Excellent 4-course Dinner, $1.00 “but Iam not very strong on having pledges signed. I consider that spirit- ual interest is one of the strongest safeguards of the marriage relation- ship and goes a long way toward mak- ing it permanent. “Although I do not think that promises of church attendance madc under such circumstances can be taken very seriously, I think that Dr. Bowie’s idea of following up the cou- ples he marries is a valuable one. If they do not belong to his parish it is a good plan to write to the min- ister of their own church and tell him of their marriage. Also there should be no stipulation as to the particular church or denomination that they should attend.” Fall Flowers Is Topic Before Takoma Club A practical talk on gladioli by Dr. E. A.

1 t i —- me ee a ee ee —e oe at wee we eee a THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, APRIL 27, 1930. . —— Veterans Themselves As Related by _ ~ Lacky 13? Six miles back from Belfort, in a Prenth military hospital at Hericourt about 100 soldiers of the Thirty-sec- ond Division were in quarantine. I had been sent to help nurse them. This time it was diphtheria, not gas or wounds that shut us away. It was during Jume-and July of 1918 and time dragged heavily for those Who were up and around and anxious w get back with their outfits. Smokes had. gotten to be a rarity when one of the doctors came out from Belfort with a scant supply. Great was the rejoicing. We care- fully divided it up. Those who rolled their own got the Bull Durham, those chewed got their chews, those who wanted a Camel] got 13. We debated about the 13 and each decided to take a chance of “13 for luck.” That night after everything was quiet, there was a great game. I! wish I could describe it. One boy cleaned up the outfit with his 13 cigarettes, Bull Durham, Camels, chewing tobacco, everything came his way. Thirteen was his lucky num- ber and how he boasted of his game and strutted about laughing at the other boys. Sev@ral days later was Bastile Day. We left our barracks to attend the exercises. What a shock we received upon our return. Every smoke was gone, not a sign. Out came running our lucky boy, crying in dismay. “Nures, Nurse, what you think? Some d—— frog has been here and stolen the whole business while we were celebrating their Pourth of July.” NORA F. MELTON. George Baldwin McCoy Unit, Ameri- can Women's Legion. Eg A Gas Attack During the early part of June, 1918, while on duty at Hospital, No 5, just outside of Paris, we were very comfortably quartered in a small hotel within the city. Our days were long and packed full of action, car- ing for the gassed and wounded ma- Tines of the Second Division. Every morning at 6 we left our lodgings, e@ large Army truck carrying us to the hospital and again at 9 p. m. bringing us back, dead tired and anxious for a little sleep. One night about 11 we had barely fallen into our beds, when away went the siren with its weird shriek, sum- anoming us to our damp, dark cellar. Air raids had become faiuly common Occurrences to us, but we hurriedly dressed, grabbed up our flash lights and a few other possessions and join- ed the rest of the sleepy unfortu- nates, who, like ourselves, had been forced to leave comfortable beds. After about an hour, the “All's clear’”’ sounded, and back we went, but not for long. Again we were awakened by that awful shriek, and again we spent another hour in our shelter Back we went a second time upon the “All’s clear” signal, I, for one, determined to spend the rest of the night in bed. But the Germans were as equally determined we would get no sleep that night. At 3 a. m. no siren shrieked for us, but some one was banging at our,Moor. Rous- ing up enough to know that another raid was on, I lighted a small candle for what reason I bed. Being assured by my room- up” that she was staying ‘“‘bombs or no bombs,” I thankfully turned back and forgot everything. In a few minutes, as it seemed to me, though I must have been asleep. Some time I was awakened by a coughing and a spluttering, a queer sensation of something wrong. The room was filled with smoke and an awful smell Alled the air. I shook Miss J-—— and said, “Wake up, wake up! iI think we got some gas.” She sat up, rubbed her eyes, and with an accusing look, said, {Who put that candle under the telephone?” Sure enough there it was. There was the Candie and there was the telephone sizzling and smoking away for dear life. That's how we “got our gas,” but not from the Boche. NORA F. MELTON. George Baldwin McCoy Unit, Ameri- | can Women's Legion. The Big “Outfit” Was a temporarily attached cadre in a replacement and training regiment at Camp Pike. In the Depot Brigade there was a from the Southern soil. Sassafras Jackson belonged to said labor bat- talion but did not know it by that mame prior to the time he was de- tained late one night in Little Rock booked for an accounting as to AWOL. Questioned as to what organization he belonged, Jackson could think of nothing but just Camp Pike. After almost everything in the curriculim was resorted to—always the reply was the same—Camp Pike. Finally Jackson was persuaded to somehow in his own way relate the daily routine procedure, if possible, in detail. Almost instantly on hearing that word Jackson jumped up shouting: “Dat’s it—detail—dat’s it—yas sar— now 1 knows, I belongs to da Detail!” ANTONIUS STEPHENS. Chandler Wright Porter Chapter, D. A. Vv.

The reminiscence of the great up- heaval, the World War, brings back to my mind a certain elderly gentieman —we will call him Dr. Bean, of Bos- ton—who up to that time lived peacefully and comfortably with his wife, and when the United States en- tered that awful maelstrom, Dr. Bean lost no time in offering his services to the Government. He was and duly cémmissioned as captain in the medical department and tly was sent overseas for extended field | to service, so he felt big and happy. But soon after his arrival “over there” he came to a rude awakening. Dr. Bean was primarily an eye specialist. Nat- urally, he believed and expected that he would be placed on duty in some clinic where he would pursue his pro- fession and keep the eyes of the army in good repair. Unfortunately for Dr. Bean, all the soldiers had their eyes examined at the time when they were enrolled in the army, and, of course. there was not any immediate need of Dr. Bean’s services in specializing on eyes; but Dr. Bean was there as a captain in the Medical Corps, and therefore must needs be assigned to some kind of duty. Accordingly, he was placed on duty in charge of Q. M. Corral, wherein many army mules were assembled. Tractors and motor trucks must have gasoline and oil; 80, too, the army mule must have his oats and hay, and it now befell Capt. Bean, the eye specialist, to prescribe, not for the eyes of the soldiers, , but ticket, he politely put him off at some rather for the requirements of the ——_ = he HUB—Seventh and D Sts. N.

Bean aes — lez vous Fraticais.. In is wrong train out of Paris, and as the conductor came along to examine his small country station where there Was no accommodation, so from mid- night till daylight Capt. Bean was obliged to while his time at the sta- tion house until eventually another train came along and took him out. Eventually, after feeling his way, he cceeded and no sooner did out of Biscay happy home again.” Zip! Bang! went the chair and his trunk after it, out of his cabin, across the ship, and then back again, while the ship, quiv- ering, rolled on. Capt. Bean, his eyes shut, waited, in terrified suspense, for the doomsday; and to make matters wotse, the good old ship sprung «a leak, which was not discovered until there was quite a bit of water in the ship’s hold. This made Capt. Bean very pale, but he resignedily held on to his berth, bemoaning his . fate. Eventually, after some 28 days of this tossing and rolling over the Atlantic, the gold old ship Susquehanna was safely moored to one of the piers in New York, and Capt. Bean was the very first man to trot down the gang- plank, and has not been seen of heard from since—at least by the army mules. ,' ANTHONY THOMAS, A Veteran of Two Wars. rn a a ee eee eee The HUB—Se and receive manufactur- GROCERY items all the two spe- kitchen cab- any one you you receive articles AMOUNT ARTICLE AMOUNT 1 “%-lb.

HH COST OF LIVIN orT WN WAR PERIO MS BEEN REDUCED Average Dollar Is Now Able . to Purchase 1916 Values. COMMODITY PRICES REVEALED IN INDICES Extreme Phase of Upward Movement Is Held to Be Closed By A. H. ULM. Obsequies are in order for the h. ¢. 1, that concision which stood for It ' was in late 1916 and early 1917 that | follow commodity prices. . most widely eccepted the term “high cost of living” at- tained such common use that it was reduced to a semihumorous abbrevi- ation. The term refiected rising com- modity prices, the level of which is now about the same as in the latter part of 1916 and the early part of 1917. That is to say, for the first time since then the average doilar is translatable into about the same yolume of all commodities that was purchasable with it just before the United States entered the World War. While governed in part by them, living costs, however, do not exactly These costs did not expand as rapidly as did those prices and have not falleh as much. For retail prices have & way of lag- ging behind wholesale ones, and many ‘things “other than commodi- ties enter into cost of living. The main story is told in terms of averages, which are best statabie in the form of index numbers. The index num- and living costs are those of the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics. The bureau now uses 1926 as the base year of its price indices. Averages for that year are put down 4s 100, and those for other years are cal- bers for prices | culated in percentages of those in 1926. Year Average of Wholesale Prices. Thus the bureau sets forth the following indices of average whole- sale prices of all commodities and of food products during the stated years since the last year preceding the World War: All * Food Commodities Products 69.7 64.2 WD1G...ccceveess TD17... cccccceces 19BO. .cccccecsrse Thus all commodity prices are about 21 per cent. and food prices only about 30 per cent higher than the averages of the last year preced- ing the World War Sincé about the same increases occurred during the fifteen years preceding 1913, the levels are about where they would be had the movement upward which be- gan at about 1900 continued withaut disturbance by the war or otner un- usual conditions. Additional increases of about the same ratios occurred between 1913 and the time of this country’s en- trance into the war in 1917, when the extraordinary leaping of prices ' started. The gaina attained by ex- traordinary leaping are now lost. The present level is somewhat lower than that represented by the combined averages of 1913 and 1917. Peak of War Period Prices. It should be noted that the aver- ages for 1920 are much lower than the peak of that year—which was the peak of the war-period price move- ment. The peak was reached in June, 1920, when all .commodity prices are 146 per cent higher than the average for 1913 and about 90 per Cent above the subsequent average cf 1926. The present average is only about half that of the war-period peak. ; The cost of living curve is mor complex. It is trailed by the Bureau ‘of Labor Statistics with reference Only to more or less basic essentials of life, such as food. clothing, rent, fuel and light, tquse furnishings and miscellaneous goods. The bureau's cost of living index mumbers are based on average retail prices* of such goods in ‘different cities from which information thereon is procured twice a year, in June and December. It treats the averages of 1913 as the base, 100. Thus, on those bases, the bureau finds that in Decem- Ber of the years indicated, average living costs in the cities, as a whole, surveyed, were above those of 1913 in percentages stated: In 1914, 3 percent; in 1916, 183 per cent; in 1917, 42.4 per cent; in 1918, 74.4 per cent; in 1920, 100.4 per cent; in 1925, 77.9 per cent; in 1929, 71.4 per cent. > Indication for June. ' ‘The June figure probably will be . about 10 points lower than the last - Fent follows: one, which is for December last. It no doubt will be materially lower than that for 1922, when average liv- ing costs were stated at 69.5 per cent higher than in 1913, the 1922 indice being the lowest recorded for an en- tire year since 1917. These cost of living figures should not be taken at full face value even as indicative of trends; for recent ones are based on old findings as to pro- portional weights of various living cost items surveyed. Per capita con- sumption of some of those items has increased and that of others declined, while still other items have come more or less newly into. use. .Indices as to particular items are more reliable. In December, 1916, when the high cost of living was the most generally bothersome thing cur- at that time, costs of surveyed items in Washington were above those of the same month in. 1914 as Food, 15.7 per cent; cloth- ing, 23.2 per cent; rent, 3.7 per cent; furnishings,’ - laneous items, 14.6 per cent, and that ~ of all the items was in W y * of all items, 14.6 per cent.

The advance above that of late 1916 is now, on the basis of the bu- -reau's calculations, probably around 40 per cent. Most of this is owing to items not ratable as commodities. .

ALL U.S. 70 HONOR GEORGE WASHINGTON Bicentennial Officers Plan Year-Long Celebration During 1932. GRANT EXPLAINS IDEA The George Washington bicenten- nial celebration in 1932 will be ex- tended to every corner of the United States, and not concentrated in the District, as many appear to believe. Lieut. Col. U. 8. Grant 3d, associate director of the District committee in chargé of the celebration, announced yesterday. “It is the Intention of the com- mission and those who are directing its work, that the celebration shall be participated in by all the people in every school district, hamlet, town and city in the Nation,” Col. Grant said. “The associate directors are working out many suggestions and details that fit into the general pro- gram, and these will be announced as each divisional subject is rounded out.” In discussing the immediate plans of the directors, Col. Grant said that State, municipal and local authori- ties were expected to actively co- operate in oratorical contests, plays and pagednts, addresses and parades “We will also attempt to reach the school children of the land througa cooperation with national organiza- tions of State school superintendents. teachers and authorities of parochial schools,. private schools, colleges and universities. “Special programs, readings, plays, &c., will be encouraged, and it is hoped that during the entire year of 1932 there will be pictures of George Washington” in every church, school, home and appropriate meeting place in every community.” The celebration will last through- out the year, Col. Grant explained, but patriotic observances will be con- centrated within the period from February 22 to Thanksgiving Day of Tealize,” he added, “the se- responsibilities which rest upon us in the program now under consideration. It is @ work of such magnitude that it will require many more months to work out anything like a complete plan of operation.” Representative Sol Bloom, of New York, is the other associate director of the celebration.

PLANET HEAT FIGURED Philadelphia, April 26 (A.P.)—A thick moving iron vapor that hangs in the atmosphere of the sun was among the scientific discoveries re- ported to the American Philosophical Society today. The swirling of the hot, vaporized iron, measured only during total eclipses of the sun, was reported by Dr. Samuel A. Mitchell, director of the Leander McCormick Observatory of the University of Virginia. There appears to be more of this iron, he said, than the proportion of water vapor in earth’s atmosphere, and it circulates up and down. But it Can form no mists, molten rain or clouds, because it is much too hot to condense, somewhere around 10,000 degrees fahrenheit. Some of the other mixtures com- posing the sun’s “air” are calcium, rising to about 8,500 miles, hydro- gen to 7,000 and helium to 5,500. Dr. Mitchell said iron and hydrogen are fairly abundant. How much it would cost a man to keep cool with a refrigerator at the center of the sun was told by Prof. John @. Stewart, of Princeton, in describing how stars are made. He said if power cost one-thousandth of = cent a kilowatt a century that is, one-billionth ite present price, the refrigeration bill at the gun's center would be $50,000,000 a minute. The temperature outside the refrigerator would be about 75,000,000 degrees fahrenheit. Dr. Harlow Shapley, director of Harvard University, described « the “red shift” of light arriving from vast distances, suggesting that it may pos- sibly set a limit to man’s vision. The “red shift” is seen in spectro- scopes, and is apparent lengthening of the light rays that come from very distant celestial objects. The redness is due to the greater length of these rays, and that in turn leads to a supposition that the celestial objects are traveling away from earth, @ motion which would make their light rays longer. A little of the mystery of distant space was removed by Dr. John 8. Plaskett, director of the Dominion Astrophysical Observatory, of Vic- toria, B. C. He said the “essential gameness” of the whole universe is indicated in some recent investiga- tions, showing that the mysterious spiral nebulae are only vast star col- lections like our own. Our great family of stars, if seen from some far- off nebula, probably would appear as another spinning spiral. Proof that our system is revolving like the spiral nebulae he offered in his own discoveries from observing about 800 stars, indicating a whirling speed of about 200 miles a second, enough to cause the entire milky wa, to make one revolution in about 300,000,000 years.

ROBERTSON. Fat ones, lean ones, little ones, big ones—every kind and descrfpticn of incorporators have for the past quarter of a century been coming to the little State of Delaware until the legends, “Incorporated in Delaware” and “this is a Delaware corporation,” have ~.become by-words in business circles throughout America and in many foreign lands. Manufacturers of needles and locomotives; colleges and universities; oil, water, gas and elec- tric companies; beautifiers and pat- ent medicine makers; get-rich-quick geniuses and professional men and women find the Delaware corporation laws so inviting that it is estimated that between 6,000 and 7,000 charters are issued by the little State every year, the State and the incorporating lawyers and agencies receiving mil- lions of dollars annually. The principal reason for the popt- larity of these laws in Delaware is that, with the exception of two or three other States in the Union, they are the most liberal in the United States. And the term ‘‘iberal” is a mild one when used in connection with the freedom and privileges and all their ramifications which are given to those concerns who see fit to obtain their charters in the little State Incorporating Agents Get Big Fees. Recently a concern known as the Commonwealth & Southern Corp?- ration filed a charter with the Dela- ware secretary of state which permit- ted it to issue 60,000,000 shares of common stock without nominal cr par value, and 2,000,000 shares of fre- ferred stock, and granted it pri- marily the right to acquire a group of subsidiary companies, that furnish electric power to 1,500 communities in eleven States, involving 1,000,000 customers. For these privileges the company paid Delaware $125,000, together with a large fee to the Delaware agency that drew up the charter. The char- ter permits the company to do any kind of business on earth that it has a mind to, 80 long as it doesn’t com- mit murder, rape or any Other crimes or misdemeanors prohibited by the laws of the land. Another concern, known as the United Stores Corporation, paid the little State $43,000 for the privilege of issuing 21,000,000 shares of no par value stock with a view to dealing in tobaccos and also in novelties, toys, drugs, medicines and toilet articles. In addition it is permitted to acqulre, market and operate farms, planta- tians, stores and warehouses, and while the charter doesn’t say s0 spe- cifically this company may, if it wishes, go into the baking business, manufacture jewelry or turn out brown derbies. In other words, the charter gives it the right to conduct any conceivable kind of business to which it may wish to turn. Incorporated Within Day. Persons desiring to incorporate for the of doing any conceivable kind of legitimate business “in com- bination” may go to Delaware. and employ a lawyer or a _ corporation company and rush through a char- tter, and if the incorporators are in a especial hurry the charter may be obtained within twenty-four hours with not as much scrutiny as a Delaware highway policeman would give an incorporator’s automobile. By cohtrasts, in practically every other State in the Union the merits of’'the would-be incorporator’s appli- cation are carefully and fully weigh- ed, sometimes over a period of two weeks or a month, during which time a thorough investigation is made before a charter is granted. Such inquiries are concerned with the financial standing and integrity of the incorporators and the propri- ety and legality of their purposes. Some of the by-products of Dela- ware corporations have been amusing when they were not tragic. A cor- poration -may commence business with only $1,000—or of nonpar value, ten shares—which may be subscribed and not paid in until the subscrip- tions are called. Some years ago a concern in the Middle West incor- porated in Delaware, and for the sake of argument let us say that it gave as its primary purpose the putting up of pickles, because, although it may mot have desired to put up pickles, its charter would have given it the right to do so anyway. Re- minded by its incorporating agency that it “could carry’ on any k‘nd of business it desired in combination and in any part of the world, the company set up headquarters in an- other State, and, instead of putting up pickles, established a “University of Medicine.” Soon “doctors” were being turned out on the unsuspectiny public at the rate of eight or ten every two months—not far behind the record of a first-rate pickle fac- tory—and it remained for an enter- prising St. Louis newspaper man to discover that a “diploma mill” was in operation. Of course, the Delaware corpora- tion laws were not directly responsi- ble for this diploma mill, neverthe- less, consider the problem a. State would be up against if it had no law or comm to regulate or prevent = a fraud from invading its bor- ers. Most Liberal in United States. In addition to the many “advan- tages” of the Delaware tion laws, advertised by the } incor- ting agencies, are exemptions y various forms of taxation. ware; and incorporating agents an- nounce slyly, too. that’ the organiza- tion and anual tax are “moderate” and that they are fixed upon au- thorized capital and not upon in- Continued on Page 21, Column 8. | FROGIOM'S MILITIA GAINS JU,000 TODAY AT PATRIOTIC RITES 10,000 Boys Will Become Vanguardists, Making Record Accretion.

Rome, April 26 (N.Y.W.NS.).-—~To- morrow’s fourth Fascist levy of the Pascist party assumes special sig- nificance. Ninety thousand vanguard- ists will enter the Black Shirt mili- tia and 10,000 scouts or balillas be- come vanguardists and enter the militia next year. This exceeds ail previous figures and marks the first fruits of com- pulsory scout membership in elemen- tary schools. The vanguardists, amid patriotic rites, will receive muskets from Black Shirt officers and take the oath to defend the party and the Duce at all costs. The day has been purposely chosen for launching four new battleships and one submarine. The Duce wants to impréss the younger generation with the vital importance of efficient naval forces. Royalty Will Officiate. Three royal ladies will launch the battleships. The cruiser Zara will be christened by the Princess of Pied- mont, who was Princess Marie Joe of Belgium before her marriage to Prince Umberto, the heir presumptive, last January. A sister ship, the Fiume. will be christened by Princess Gio- vanni, the king's third daughter. The Zara was built at Spezia, very quickly, being laid down last July. Although in the same class as the Trieste and the Trento, she is slightly heavier and slower and naval men here compare her with the American ship Augusta. Like the Fiume, she displaces 10,160 tons and is 182 meters long and 21 meters wide with a speed of 32 knots developed by 95,000-horse- power engines. She is armed with four Duplex No. 203 guns, and three Duplex 100.47 guns. Two New Light Cruisers. The king’s aunt, the Duchess d’O. Asta, will launch the two light crus- ers of the Condottieri class on which Italy is specializing for speed and lightness in Mediterranean defense They are to be called the Alberto Diguissano and the Giovanni Delle Bando Nefo, after the famous condot- tieris of the mddle ages. Each has 4,975 tons displacement, a length just over 169 meters and a beam of 15% meters, with 95,000 horsepower. They will make a speed of 37 knots and carry four duplex 152-milimeter guns, three duplex 100-milimeter guns and two torpedo tubes of 533 milimeters. Tomorrow wil) also see the launch- ing of the submarine Defino which is 65 meters long. Everything is being done to make the ceremonies impressive. The gov- ernment will send important dele- gations from the Fascist hierarchy to Spezia, Trieste and also to Monfal- cone where the Delfino will be launched. (Copyright. 1930.) Governors Score U. S.

She was born in County Cork, Ire- land, on May 1, 1880, the child of an Irish day laborer. She followed her father to America, taught in a con- vent at Monroe, Mich. and later opened a dressmaking establishment in Chicago. She married an iron molder in 1861 and served as a nurse —— the Civil War. After the war an epidemic of yellow fever wiped out her husband and her four children.

HE difficulties confronting the wets in their effort to overturn the present strong dry majority in both houses of Congress could hardly be illustrated better than by the present situation in Montana. There we have Tom Walsh, the inguisitor terrible of the Teapot Dome investigation, running for re- election. Tom is a dry—not merely a political dry, like so many of my colleagues, but a real 100 per cent bone dry, personally as well as po- litically. But Tom is also a devout Jeffer- sonian Democrat—on everything ex- cept prohibition. . He believes in the infallibility of the people when they express themselves at the polls; they are always right, even when they are wrong—that is, on everything except prohibition. The exception of pro- hibition must be made always. r Im 1926 the people of Montana held a referendum and by a substantial majority voted to repeal their State prohibition enforcement act. Tom dismissed the returns with a shrug of the shoulders. It was only a fleet- ing vagery of the electorate. They would soon come back to their senses. In 1928 the people of Montana voted again on the question, and again they went wet. The returns showed them to be wetter than they were in 1926. They decided they wanted the State enforcement law to stay repealed. Tom's quick-witted colleague, Burt Wheeler, saw what was happening among his consituents. He kept as quiet as he could about prohibition and got himself reelecte: in 1928 while Hoover was sweeping the State. Now he is exhibiting distinct Wet tendencies. But Tom himself is un- changed. He is as dry as ever. When he questioned Henry Curran, head of the Association Aga.nst the Prohibi- tian Amendment, in the lobby inves- tigation, he remarked that the revolt against the eighteenth amendment and the Volstead act was “confined chiefly to a narrow strip along the Atlantic Coast.” Now Tom has got to fight it out for reelection agafnst a wet Republican, Judge Galen. He probably will have a hard fight. But Tom is a popular figure in Montana. His constituents respect him. They have twice re- elected him before. And so the ques- tion confronts them: Will they vote their convictions on the liquor ques- tion, as they did in two previous ref- erendums, and vote for the wet Judge Galen, or will they, when they step up to the ballot-box in November, mark an X opposite the name of the SENATOR WALSH. dry Tom Walsh his outstanding issues? in appreciation of record on other I'm afraid the wets won't get any- where until they get ma“ enough to disregard all other issues and vote for only wet candidates.

As the sponsors of the bill remark, the Vollbehr collection represents the greatest opportunity Congress ever has had to increase the value of its library at a comparatively nominal cost. This collection furnishes a cross section of the thought and culture of the people of that period, a history of the great Renaissance, the period contemporaneous with the discovery of America and with the beginning of the Reformation.

I though they had my old colleague, Tom Heflin, on the skids at jast. For years they have been gunning for him in Alabama, but they never made any headway. The harder they fought Tom the stronger he came back. He first got himself elected to Congress in 1904 and he has been with us ever since. After serving six- teen years in the House, he ran for the Senate in 1920 to fill out the un- expired term of the late John H. Bankhead, and won. In 1924 he was reelected and it began to look as if Tom were a fixture. In 1928 Tom went on the rampage against Al Smith. He fought him be- fore the Houston convention and he continued to fight him afterward. although the record is a bit shy on evidence that he actually advocated the election of Herbert Hoover. How- ever, his activities had the same ef- fect and Hoover nearly carried rock- ribbed Democratic Alabama. Some pe ' he did carry it but got counted ut. Tom's enemies began laying plans to get even. When Tom announced bis intention of running for reelec- tion this year. they held a council of war and decided he was no longer a Democrat. They ruled him off the ballot. He could run all right, they said, but not on the Democratic ticket. Tom appealed to the courts to give him a place on the ticket. The courts turned him down Now Tom must run as an independent. In a State where the voters are so firmly moored to party traditions as they are in Alabama, this is a serious han- dicap. Some think it will be fatal tc Tom. Others hope so. But Tom is &@ masterful rabble-rouser and ne knows his Alabama constituents. they'll hear a lot of noise in Ala- bama from now on until Novemoer.

The cost of the 156 hospitals covered in the census report was $91,343,752 in 1927, compared with $76,154,424 in 1922. At the beginning of 1928 there were 294,075 insane patients in these hos- pitals. Local Committee Announced. New York State alone spends ap- praximately $20,000,000 a year on its insane and its hospitals now are overs crowded. According to preliminary announcements of the congress there are now more hospital beds | by insane patients than by siehinen af all other maladies combined. — The following local committee for the world - annouficed yesterday: Frederic A.

Rankin Predicts Success For Veterans’ Relief Bill Representative During Radio Talk Declares He Does Not Believe Hoover Will Veto Measure Which Already Has Passed House. (Associated Press.) Representative Rankin (Democrat), Missisejppi, in a radio. address last night said that he did not believe President Hoover would veto the Rankin bill designed to extend relief to World War veterans which was passed by the House last Thursday. “Even if he should,” Representative Rankin said in his address over the National Broadcasting Co. network, “we would then it over his veto. I expect to continue the battle until Wwe can secure the necessary relief for those unfortunates who offered their lives and sacrificed their health in the defense of their country dur- ing the dark days of the World War.” The Mississippi representative, ranking minority member of the com- mittee which considered the bill, said he believed the veterans re- pro ‘|iMef plan would cost about $108,000,- 000 a year. He asserted that those who estimated the bill will cost “sev- eral hundred million dollars a year are opposed to any relief for these veterans.” “There are 18,000 of these men | suffering from tuberculosis and 23,000 suffering from neuropsychiat- ric troubles, who are al] uncom- nsated, to say nothing of those suffering from heart trouble, cancer, and other chronic constitutional diseases,” Representative Rankin said. “Invariably these disabilities are traceable to the World War. The stress and strain of the service, the hard grind in the training camps, the nerve racking experiences at the front under shel] fire, inhaling poison gas and going over the top in the face of withering gun fire, all left their ef- fects on the nerves of these men, many thousands of whom are help- less as a result and not drawing a penny of compensation from their Government. “The bill now goes to the Senate My advice to you boys is to get in touch with your senators and urge them to pass it without delay. Those who are opposed to the legislation tells us that the President will veto it. This I can not believe but even if he should, we would then pass it over his veto.” » OHIO LEGISLATORS BLAMED FOR FIRE Warden Says Lawmakers Refused to Construct Needed Additions. BRUTALITY IS. REFUTED, Columbus, Ohio, April 26 (A.P.) — Accused of brutality by some of the prisoners under his care and threat- ened with suspension because of the holocaust that smoked out the iives of 320 men, Warden Preston E. Thomas of the Ohio Penitentiary re- appeared today before the governor's investigating committee and blamed Ohio’s Legislatures for his plight. The convicts who lost ir lives when fire and smoke swept through the G and H cell blocks last Mcn- day night were quartered in one of the fire-traps which the State's law- making bodies for twelve years aoare refused to remove, he declared. Ohio prisons are flooded with con- victs far beyond their capacity be- cause the State has refused to build new ones and the minimum sentence laws which the General Assembly «n- acted in 1921 over hig objection are keeping them full, he said. With an expression of “heartfelt sympathy” for relatives and friends of those lost in the fire, Thomas told the investigators that he had done everything humanly possible to pre- vent such a catastrophe. To him it was & double tragedy, he said, for it cahused more suffering outside the prison walls than it did within. Warden's Removal Songht. A few days ago many of the 4,600 prisoners still in the penitentiary were clamoring for the warden’s scalp. In a state of open revolt, they broke the locks on their cells in the idle house, took possession of the cagés and demanded the warden’s removal before they could be quieted. Fire supervisors went before the in- vestigation committee and told its members that the convicts despised Thomas. They accused him of bru- tality. They boldly declared that they had organized a “passive resistance” campaign against him. They de- clared they would refuse to work or obey the orders of their guards. Thomas remained silent through most of it. while prison officials and others under his direction calmed the unruly mob. The prisoners are still in a state of “passive resistance,” but they have ceased creating disturb- ances. When the investigating com- mittee closed its inquiry yesterday, Thomas requested that be be per- mitted to tell his whole story, end the investigation was reopened for him today. He offered several witnesses to re- fute the charges that he had counte- nanced brutality and then launched into a full account of his administra- tion as warden. Son Enters Investigation. His son, Don Thomas, a Dayton at- torney, sat with the investigators to ask him questions. “In 1913 Gov..Cox told me to make the Ohio Penitentiary the best prison in this country,” he said. “I replieq to the governor that it was impossible with the material and equipment that existed. “Plans were made under Gov. Cox to build the London Prison Farm, but the Legislature shelved them be- cause it thought the work could not be done with convict labor. To prove that the Legislature was wrong the farm was completed by the work of convicts. “For 17 years I importuned the Leg- islature to provide relief as the prison population grew, but it has only been recently that they listened to me.’ “T have always protested the build- ing of anything but fireproof struc- tures.” the warden continued. “When the State constructed the Junction City Prison Bright Plant I argued and pleaded for fireproof buildings. But they did not want them. And what was the result? Nine men were burned to death in a fire there two years ago. “tT persistently called the attention of the Legislature to the fire traps maintained at our prison institutions ‘Yes, warden,’ they told me, ‘we know it and we'll try to help you.” But they always went away without do- ing anything. “On many occasions I have recom- mended additional prisons. None ever were provided. In 1921 the General Assembly increased the minimum sentence statutes to provide sentences of 10 to 15 years instead of 1 to 15 years for robbery. I told them that passage of that law would make the prisons more crowded than ever. And it has.” Dignitary of Greek Church in Capital ‘Archbsihop Alexander Will Officiate at St. Sophia’s Services Today. The Right Rev.

CAPE HENRY MARKS PILGRIMS ABBA Harry Flood Byrd Urged as Presidential Candidate by Gov. Gardner. NORFOLK WOMAN TALKS Cape Henry, Va., April 26 (A.P.).— Tribute was paid by 2,500 persons here today to the courage, fortitude and righteousness of the brave lit- tle band of Englishmen who came ashore at this point 323 years ago to establish the first permanent Anglo-Saxon civilization in a new world. The throng stood within sight of a rugged cross, planted on the wind- swept dunes, as Bishop A. C. Thom- son, of the Episcopal Diocese of Vir- ginia, led the memorial services and lauded the character of the men who came ashore from the three tiny ships—Sarah Constant, Goodspeed and Discovery. The cross stands where the colonists are said first to have touched land to claim the fer- ritory for God and king and name the point Cape Henry. Forced indoors by inclement weather, the ceremonies were con- ducted in the Cape Henry Casino. Mrs. Frantz Naylor, of Norfolk, was named by the governor to deliver the historical address. Short addresses were delivered by Gov. John Garland Pollard of Vir- ginia, Gov. L. G. Hardman of Geor- gia and Brig. Gen. William F. Ladd, of Connecticut. “As we stand on this sacred spot we feel gratitude to God and to our forefathers who braved the dangers of the sea and fought successfully against pestilence and savages to found the greatest Nation the world has ever seen,” Gov Pollard said. He paid tribute to the spirit of the doughty littfe band, including Capt. John Smith, who was in irons when the colonists came ashore, but later the leader of the group. Gov. Hardman said the courage and spirit of the colonists had made America a great Nation and ‘hat this spirit was still carrying on to greater things. He said Virginians had set an example of righteousness an‘ courage, and called attention to the words of Henry Clay, a Virginian. “Clay was for the abolition of slav- ery long before Lincoln,’ Gov. Hard- man said. “When told that this would defeat him, he said: “‘T had rather be right than Presi- dent.’ ”’ The Georgia governor praised Vir- ginia for the great men she had con- tributed to the Nation and added: “And Harry Flood Byrd should fol- low Woodrow Wilson as Virginia’s next contribution to the United States.” Mrs, Franz Naylor said, in part: “The year 1607 brought the first permanent English settlers to the shores of the New World. It estab- lished the Anglo Saxon heritage of loge of organized society, of law ani order, and of general liberty. iInter- woven in the fabric of this early dyed-in-the-wool spirit of Magna Charta, was recognition of their de- pendence upon the Almighty in their hazardous, four months adventure upon the high seas.” “A day like today, just at this time, perhaps, they came ashore to this spot where we are assembled to honor their memory today. They came to open their box of instruc- tions as the London company had ordered, and, led by the Rev. Robert Hunt, to fall on their knees dnd give thanks to the Almighty for their safe journey. “Enough of the settlers came ashore dians and quickly retreat to their Ships after Indian arrows had wounded several of them. On May 13 they founded Jamestown Island, the first permanent English settle- ment in America. They called the place Jamestown Island in honor of their King James. Here, then, at Cape Henry and at Jamestown Island began the American Nation.” Indiana Society To Greet Leslie Governor and Wife Will Be Guests at Reception Thursday Night.

MAY PLANES STAGE MIMIC AIR FATS Aviators Take Off From Deck: of Carrier Lexington Off Virginia. OFFICIALS SEE DISPLAY On Board Aircraft Carrier Lexing- ton, April 26 (A.P.).—Naval aviation bared its fighting teeth today to visit- ing congressmen and military officials in a spectacular ffying circus 20 mies off the Virginia coast. Sixty-nine air- planes hurtling into the air at ten second intervals from their nest on the Lexington screamed through fair skies in sham battles and formation flights. The aerial armada turned attacks on its mother ship, which barked and rattled its defense with fire from antiaircraft, secondary and machine gun batteries. Torpedo planes, ap- proaching under cover of a curtain of smoke to launch their missiles, were attacked from above by fleet, a seat fighters. The fighters, wires screaming and motors whining, dived and twisted in separate stunts and staged mimic “dog fights.” Ships Shadow Carrier. Two destroyers and the VU. 8. 5S. Aroostook shadowéd the carrier in the maneuvers, standing by as protection in forced landings. For three hours the air fleet rode the skies, descending one by one to their floating field, where cables across the deck were seized by hooks beneath the planes to bring them to a standstill. Fresh from maneuvers in Caribbean waters, the fliers were declared to be “at the peak of performance” by naval officers who lined the gun tur- rets to witness the circus. Senator Hiram Bingham, Connnect- icut, a World War flier and president of the National Aeronautical Associa- tion, rode as a passenger in one of the scouting planes. Two Minor Mishaps. A perfect demonstration was marred by two minor miilshaps. One plane, bouncing after ite hook en- gaged a cable, broke a landing gear strut. An amphibian, whose hook could not be lowered by the pilot, turned back to its coastal base. Amelia Earhart, transatlantic flier, was among the official guests with David 8. Ingalls, Assistant Secretary of Navy for Aeronautics; Clarence M Young, Assistant Secretary of Com- merce for Aeronautics, and members of the Senate and House naval af- fairs and appropriations committees. The visitors inspected the carrier; originally planned es a battle cruiser. but revampec after the 1922 limita- tion of arms conference, as it rode a calm sea eastward in the face of a 20-mile wind.

Sabin, Irenee L. du Pont, Pierre du Pont, L. du Pont, R. T. Crane, jr. A. C. James and several others. Wet Organization Attacked. Mrs. Nicholson's attack was directed chiefly at an organization for the re- peal of the eighteenth amendment.

By ALAN GOULD Special to The Washington Post. By FRANK H. YOUNG. (Associated Press Sports Editor). RANKLIN FIELD, Philadelphia, April 26 (A.P.).—For the second straight year, Ohio State’s grey- ‘hound of the cinderpaths, George “Simpson, today brought the Pennsyl- -yania relay carnival to a smashing climax with a world’s record per- .formance in the 100-yard dash. . Last spring the famous Buckeye _ bullet shot from his new and much- .dig@Muted starting blocks to race the century in 93-5 seconds, equalling the listed world’s record with the fastest “100” ever witnessed on his- ‘toric Franklin Field. Today, with a crowd of 30,000 cheering him on, Simpson disdained the blocks, went -back to the old-fashioned holes and repeated his time of 93-5 seconds, thereby satisfying any and all skep- tics. This was the fourth sprint of the ‘S{ternoon for Simpson, but it was s#lso his best as he sped down the traightaway to beat his nearest rival, De Armond Hutson, of Denison (Ohio) College, by a half dozen yards and eave in the ruck such Eastern aces "as Pete Bowen, of Pittsburgh, and John Harwood, of Syracuse. »~Wildermuth Pulls Tendon ‘And Withdraws. ‘The expected clash between Simp- #0n and Karl Wilson Wildermuth, of Georgetown, the Eastern intercollegi- ate champion, failed to materialize “when Wildermuth pulled a tendon “and withdrew in the semifinals. hi Previously, Simpson had. won .his "two 100-yard trial heats handily in '§0 seconds flat and then anchored the Ohio State half-mile relay team ‘that successfully refended its title in (this event and shattered its own car- Hival record. In this race, the Buck- eyes gained revenge on their con- *‘querors of the day before, Chicago, ™md were clocked in 1 minute 26 8-10 ‘seconds. The time displaced their ‘last year’s mark of 1:27. Altogether there were a half dozen JAKE EDWARDS. Summary of Events At Penn Carnival HILADELPHIA, April 26.—The pop-pop of the starters’ guns sent college and high school quartets away from their marks in a continuous stream yesterday and today and the fastest quarter-mile leg of the thirty-sixth renewal of the University of Pennsylvania relay carnival was produced by Jakie Ed- wards, former Tech High star, of Washington, D. C., who as a member of the Penn Freshman Team, sped the quarter mile in 48 4-5 seconds this afternoon. Edwards salvaged a bit of the glory for the athletes of the District*of Columbia group who could win only one event, a scholastic mile relay captured by Tech High. Georgetown, Maryland Catholic University and Eastern High athletes failed to fap- ture a single first place today. Edwards ran the third leg for the Penn yearlings and helped the Quakers to set a new record of 3:19 2-5 for the race. The big for- mer Tech High speed boy was in rare fettle this afternoon. He was away from the mark in a brilliant start and maintained a terrific pace to the finish. The announcement of his time created a stir among the 30,000 spectators. Wildermuth Injured In Semifinal. The biggest blow to the Hilltop- pers came in the semifinals of the special invitation 100-yard dash when Karl Wildermuth, veteran dashman, pulled a tendon in his second heat and had to withdraw from the race. Wildermuth had little difficulty landing the first heat and, not being extended, was clocked in 101-5 sec- onds. He was slated for the second semifinal, and, with George Simpson, of Ohio State, and Reginald Bowen, of Pittsburgh. In the. first semifinal, Wildermuth’s chances of gaining the finals were excellent. The break came, however, when he pulled up lame at the halfway mark of the Louis Johrden, Post Staff Photographer. Capt.

Edwards, manager of the Serv- ice Bureau of the American League, credits the Cleveland Indians with a new all-time major league rec- ord in pinch hitting. Seven pinch hitters were used by the Indians in games against Detroit and Chicago and each de- livered. The seven hits drove in seven rums in addition to one run scored by a pinch hitter. Two games were won by 1.000 per cent pinch hitting. TIGER STRING OF DEFEATS REACHES 7 Brown, Indian Rookie, Scatters 9 Hits to Win, 11-4.

Yesterday, when i ap- peared as though the Athletics might stop their winning streak at four straight, they suddenly rallied, over- came a 3-run alien lead, and finally won out, 8 to 4, The victory, which permitted Johnson's men to remain at the top of the pack, was the third straight over the world’s champions and, should the Nats win this evhiar ~ they will have won as many 0 games from the men of Mack as they did all of last season, when they were beaten in 16 of 20.

Irving Hadley, who drew the native box assignment, granted but four hits in six frames, but he issued four passes and the A's were able to pick the spots for their binglés so wisely that they netted three funs. Grove, on the other hand, had his Offerings knicked for twice as many hits over the same stretch, but ai- ways had a little in reserve, thanks largely to six strikeouts, to stop the Nats just as it appeared as though they might get a run or so. Some fine fielding, especially a catch turned in by Mule Haas in the fifth, also figured most opportunely for the tall left-hander. Mackmen Score Runs One at a Time. ! The Mackmen scored their mark- ers one at @ time.

Warne hurled his body over the bar, with inches to spare, but he knocked the cross-bar from its moor- ings with one arm in his descent and the spectators, waiting breath- lessly to cheer, gave way to @ groan as the crossbar came tumbling to the ground, ruining Werne’s record- breaking attempt.

AMAICA, N. ¥., April 26 (A.P.).— William Woodward's Gallant Fox, ridden by Earl Sande, accopnted for the $10,150 purse in the Wood Memorial Stakes here today. The victory was a popular one, as Gal- lant Fox is the faverite for the Preakness and Kentucky Derby, for which he will be pointed, and Sande staged his comeback by plloting him to victory over a high-class field of 3-year-olds. The time, 1:43 3-5, was exception- ally fast and stamps the son of Sir Gallahad III in perfect condition, and it will take a smart colt to trim him in either of the two stakes.

However, there was a tinge of luck te the score, as G. W.

Leblanc, who rode Michigan Boy, the one that fouled Ned O., was in- définitely suspended by the stewards, and his case referred to the Maryland Racing Commission. Michigan Boy, who trailed Sweet Sentiment to the wire by a length and a half, was then disqualified, and the place given to W. J. Salmon's Swinfield. Third place went to the en Riddie Farm's Full Dress, with . P. Whitney's Skirl receiving fourth oney. Crazy Coot and Michigan Boy Battle to Back Stretch. Crazy Coot, one of the Whitney en- ty, and Michigan Boy fought it out head and head from the wire until they reached the back stretch. When the field settied into its stride and started its run down the back lane, Crazy Coot still led, but Sweet Senti- ment had rushed into second place. Iq the meantime, Ned O. was being rushed from last place to fifth via the rail, and here he made the run around the last turn. Turning for home Sweet Sentiment and Michigan were leading. but Ned O., on the . was devouring ground rapidly. and was almost lapped on the leaders at the eighth pole. At this stage Leblanc was seen to pull Michigan Boy over on Ned O, end the latter was knocked off his feet. As he bounced back off the Yails he was pulled up as he had no chance then to be in the money.

The colt was fractious at the barrier and broke | through several times, and when the start came he was away in front, but the others crowded over to the rail and they got Sande into a pocket. In the run around the turn Gold Brook was pinched out of it and Sande was finally forced back. How- ever, it was a wise move, as Sande took his mount to the outside and then rated the colt along to the turn. where he sent him up to the leader. Crack Brigade.

Sent - To Red Sox _ InTrade Right-Handed Hitter Formerly Starred With White S Ox. js | Jones Is Selected to . *Face Walberg in ' * Today's Game. 3 |. By FRANK H. YOUNG. | WA ANAGER WALTER JOHNSON | brings Delieves that the deal an- nounced Outfielder Bill the Sox in ex for Earl Webb, will improve Wash- ington outfield conditions in no smal) } * degree. With Goose Goslin, Sammy Rice, Sammy West and Red Barnes, as well as Webb, left-handed hit- tetra, the Nats had only George Loepp hitting in the orthedox manner. Barrett is a right-handed hitter and, even when not ert er should be valuable as a pinch-hitter. Barrett is no youngster, being 30 years old next month, but he is a fair fielder and hitter. He started with the Mackmen in 1921, spent three years in the minors, and then ‘went to the White Sox in 1923, re- maining in the Windy City until last May. when he was traded to the Sox for Outfielder Douglass He reached his high-water mark as a swatter in 1925, when he 280 mark ever since, traveling at a 270 gait last year in fourteen games. His lifetime average is .290. Barrett to Report for Téday’s Game. Webb left to join the Red Sox in New York before yesterday's game, while Barrett has been ordered to report here at once and should be on hand for today’s game, the final of: the current set with the world’s champion Athletics. A crowd rivaling that of openiag day is expected to turn out this aft- ernoon, which will see the veteran “Sad Sam” Jones -making his 1930 debut. George “Rube” Walberg is expected to draw the pitching assignment. First Baseman Harley Boss, on 24- hour option with the Chattanooga Lookouts, is again’ having trouble wfth the ailing knee which kept him from starting off with the Southern Association Team. Water on the knee has developed as the result of another injury, and the Nats, who have him in mind as the ultimate successor to Joe Judge, have. decided to bring him here and put him under the care of the Washington Club’s physician. As soon 28 Boss is pronounced cured he will be re- turned to Chattanooga. Joe Engel, president of the Look- outs, declares that Boss is not tak- ing his injury seriously and refuses to take the rest treatment ordered by the Chattanooga medicine men. Preident Griffith, of the Nats, guar- antees that this will not be “he case when Boss shows up here, for he plans to tell the player that he either does what the Nat physician tells him to or his pay will stop. Léepp Shining as Lead-Off Man. Loepp. has led off for the Wats in three games against the Mack- mén this season, and in each has opened with a hit, singling to start |) contest for the natives. |: terday’s He slaged center, following the usual plan of subbing for West when 4 southpaw pitcher is . Seam Rice was back at his old stand in right, following a layoff Friday be- cause of an injured knee. His injury was not entirely cured, but the old “war horse” volunteered to play. In the first game of the series with the Yankees, which starts here to- morrow, Babe Ruth will make his arinual presentation of 51 autographed * baseballs and as many bats to the War Department. Assistant Secretary ¥. Trubee Davison will receive this pment, which will be used as re- wards to the outstanding athiete in each of the 51 Citizens Military Train- ing Camps about to be established. Col. Jake Ruppert, Yankee owner; has donated the balls. Third Baseman Jimmy Dykes made , @ nobby one-hand stop in the second ‘inning yesterday to rob Muddy Ruel : of a hit. ‘Catcher Gordon Phelps. and Out- fielder Arthur “Buck” Freeman are scheduled to be sent away by the ' Nationals on option this week. They probably will go to Hagerstown, with atrings being kept on both. Capt. Joe Judge, usually a smart player; suffered a slight brainstorm in: the Macks’ third. With Simmons on first, a quick peg by Ruel, trapped him, but Judge, apparently counting the crowd, forgot to thréw to second, the big outfielder being credited with a gift theft. This helped the Macks none, however, as Foxx ended the inning by rolling to Cronin. “Mule” Haas made a nice catch of Cronin’s drive In the fifth to rob the _ shortstop of a hit and the Nats of a ‘Tun. He fell and rolled over three times after making the grab, the last two turns looking like a “grand stand” play from the press box, ap- parently not being necessary. Dmpire Brick Owens was booed loudly by the fans for calling Bluege out at second after Bis had made a great stop of Pinch tter Jack Hayes’ pop just over second. From box, It looked as though the ompiré was correct, ag Bluege, a tly thinking the blow was a alot. slowed up just before reaching the base. : Glen Liebhardt, who relieved Grove fot the A’s starting the seventh, is a 19-year-old youngster, who tried out with the Nats in Cleveland two seasons back.

The score was 8 to 3. Pipgras held the Red Sox to ten hits, four of them coming in the ninth inning and bringing two runs. The Yankees drove Horace Lisenbee from the mound, scoring four times in the third inning, but could do little against his successor, Bayne. ri’s first single drove in the first New York run and his second sent two more across the plate.

Continued From Page 15. . In the fourth, the visitors became three up, Bishop's opening two-bag- ger and Cochrane's single turning the trick. Their other rum came in the ninth while Garland Braxton was pitching and did the Macks no good, for they were badly beaten by that time. Meanwhile, the Nats had been con- tinually threatening. Singles by Loepp and Myer went for naught in the first, an error and Goslin’s single did the Johnson's no good im the third, while they filled the basea in the fifth, only to have Grove stop them in their tracks. After Cronin had lofted out in this latter frame. Judge and Bluege inserted singles and Ruel coaxed a walk. Hadley fanned, however, and Loepp then rolled to Dykes Judge Opens Sixth With Triple. The Nats finally broke through Grove’s defense in the sixth” Judge led off with a lusty triple to the immediately singled him home. After Ruel had popped to Bishop, Jack Hayes went to the bat for Hadley and he shot a soft liner over Grove’s head. It had all of the earmarks of a hit, but Bishop managed to knock down the ball on the first bounce and to force Bluege at the middle station. Grove discovered that his finger was sore after this round and Jim Keesey hit for him, with Braxton on the job in Hadley's place, This slim southpaw showed some of his best form and simply breezed through the last three Innings. He issued two passes and one was turned into the useless run scored by the Quakers in the ninth. Boley followed .with a single and the run scored after Loepp’s catch of Bishop's long fly. Young Liebhardt previously had stopped a Yankee rally when reliey- ing Grove and Connie Mack was hopeful that he could turn the trick against the Nats in the seventh, but yesterday was another day. Ma- haffey was yanked after one run was scored off him. Ma- hone finally stopping this rally, but running into a peck of trouble in the eighth, due largely to his wild- ness. He started this session by walk- ing Rice, and Goslin came through with a triple, scoring a moment later on Cronin’s sacrifice fly. Then came another sacrifice—Myer advancing from first to second after Cochrane's catch of Judge’s pop foul—a walk to Bluege, Ruel’s single, and a pass to Braxton. Eddie Rommel then stepped in and stopped this onslaught. Goslin and Judge Make 3 Hit. Every member of the Washington Team except Cronin and the pitchers contributed to the Nats’ fifteen-hit total. In addition to his homer, Myer was credited with a single, While Gos. lin and Judge each cracked out a triple and two one-basers, with Bluege hitting three one-shots. Simmons, with a double and a single, led the alien attack. ‘ Haas and Myer furnished the field- ing gems, the former robbing Cronin of a hit in the fifth with a shoe- string catch, while Myer ended the game by racing well over toward first to snare Haas’ hot grounder with one band for a killing at the doorway.

By BOB CONSIDINE. RANK MARION SHORE, 17-year- old junior champion of Wash- ington and No, 9 In the city’s rankings, learned to play the game in the Capital and has done most of his playing here. His father, who still wields an intelligent, if faltering, racquet, is mostly responsible for Frank’s success. Frank's is another case of spirit transcending stroke equipment. Al- though he considers his game well developed, for the time he has played. it still is somewhat below his innate tennis sense and will to win. To a certain degree this will to win has stood in his way, if anything can HE Maryland University Baseball Nine registered its fifth consecu- tive victory by conquering Army, 8 to 2, yesterday. The game marked the dedication of the new baseball field. Senator Millard F. Tydings, of Maryland, pitched the first ball.

Jackson's hit was registered in the second inning when West Virginia Scored its lone run. The ball was fairly hard hit and barely eluded Frank Baumann, Georgetown short- atop, who tried desperately to stop it ,as it bounced into center field. Jack- #en also counted the visitors’ run, following two walks and an infield- out. be said to havé stood in his way. He plays to win too often, it being diffi- cult for him to lose to any person whom he can beat. Consequently his stroke equipment does not show the finish and polish which is only achieved after months of wearing practice and many defeats. Frank is the most consistent winner of any tournament player I know. His Volley Needs No Will to Win. He needs no particular will to win when he takes the net to volley. This particular department of his game showed a mushroom growth in im- est stroke, followed by his backhand. When driven frum his net position he frequently falls back on a chopped forehand and backhand for his base- line play, but these are only effec- tive when he comes to the net be- hind them.

Army scored twice in the first, when Lindquist, first batter, walked, and went to second when Hauver messed up Powell's grounder. Both runners scored on Golden's two-bagger to left center. Batson relieved Hauver at this from Stieber for another marker. Army Beaten Early In Game.

ABH ozek.rf... it | OMETIMES I wonder what would S happen to local collegiate tennis if there were not such men as Ab Leech and Al Gore. The two ten- nis playing colleges in the District, Georgetown and George Washington, depend entirely on the benevolence and tennis complexes of these two hardy veterans. What we're talking about is that Georgetown's courts are not on a plane with its tennis team and G. W.s lone rectangle is one of the better examples of everything wrong in the art of court building. Each of the two schools must apply to outside agencies to stage its matches, and each year either Mr. Leech or Capt. Gore, tennis committee chairmen oi their respective clubs, listen to the long and anxious lament of the tennis managers and probably compare them with the requests of other tennis managers since Columbian College lost its amateur standing and turned G. W. Capt. Gore Benefactor Of Colonials. It so happens that th: West Point- G. W. match, held yesterday at Con- gressional Country Club is a case in point. The cadets were supposed to tackle Georgetown, but there was &@ mixup over guarantee money and £0 George Washington took the match. Maj. Finley, Army mentor, wired QG. W. that the match had been decided and that they were—literally—leaving on the next train. Here is where a Leech or a Gore is needed—and badly. Capt. Gore came forward this time. More than that he arranged every- thing, staged the match, purchased nets and attended to the many jobs a match entails, for instance gaining permission from the rest of the ten- nis committee to hold the match, posting notice of the match, seeing of Tennis y Speaking BOB CONSIDINE ers, Ralph Robinson, writing in the current issue of the Racqueteer Bal- timore’s tennis manual, raises the question of the failure of the U. 5. L T. A. to rank Eddie Jacobs. Now there Is every reason why this article should not have been re- strained. Eddie is“ practically ven- erated in Baltimore. Against more odds than you would suppose existed in a democratic nation he has forged to the top of tennis in Baltimore and has gone from there to national honors. He received no ranking for his laat season’s work despite the fact that he went to the semi-finals in the intercollegiates, defeating Johnny Doeg, America’s third ranking player, to gain the post. A few weeks later he defeated Doeg again. Besides Doeg, Eddie won from Abe, Cogge- shall, Cram, Sutter, Mather and Bruce Barnes. Ed Fiebleman was ranked No. 20 because he scored a victory over Berkeley Bell, ninth in U. S. rankings, yet lost in the first round of every other tournament. Jerry Lang, ranked No 19, received that position for making a good showing against Doeg! New York Net Team Here Sunday. Washington, or more to the point, Congressiona; Country Club, will be the scene of some big league tennis next Sunday when the Seventh Rezgi- ment Armory netmen move on the town to engage an all-Washington team. The New York group will in- clude such stars as Herb Bowman, Bill Aydelotte, Perrine Rockafeller and Hal Jenkins. Capt. Al Gore, basso-rotundo in ed to the infield and all runners were safe when the throw to third was again too late. Radice stole second and both he and Berger scored on Chalmer'’s safety to center. Mary- land counted four more runs in the second on three walks, a pair of sin- gies, and Chalmers led the Old Liners at bat with a double and a single in four times up.

ITH Catholic University in the lead by two runs and with two out and two on the bases in the ninth inning, Marn- hattan College rallied to win the game in Brookland Stadium yester- day afternoon by a score of 8 to 5 before 400 spectators. “Douce” Devin, bespectacled Car- dinal pitcher, was the victim of the Jaspars’ late attack, while Devaney and Shand did the heroic work for Manhattan by making the hits that drove in the tying and winning runs. Cohen and O'Neil were on second and third, with two away, when De- vaney came to bat. He promptly doubled to left, scoring his mates to knot the score at 5-5. Shand fol- lowed immediately with a single to cash Devaney. After that two more Jaspar rums were scored with the aid of an error by De Mello and a single by O’Connell. Cards Get 4 Runs In 8th. The Cardinals had high hopes of winning as the ninth inning opened, for in the eighth they had punched over four runs to take the lead, after having trailed from the start. Kelly’s home run with De Mello on base featured this rally. Until the eighth, Corrigan, Man- hattan pitcher, had yielded only one VAN RYN AND ALLISON IN VICTORY Mason-Dixon Title to 1930 Davis Cup Doubles Pair. HFTE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W. Va., April 26 (A.P.).—John Van Ryn, of South Orange, N. J., and Wilmer Allison, jr., of Austin, Tex., justified the selection of the Davis Cup committee, which yesterday named them to represent the United States as the doubles team in the 1930 competition by van- quishing the national doubles cham- pions, George M. Lott, jr., of Chicago, and John Doeg, of Santa Monica, in the finals of the Mason and Dixon doubles championship this afternoon. The defeated pair were named ‘by the Davis Cup committee to repre- sent the United States in singles com- petition. The scores of tke match, which was fought on the courts of the Green- brier Golf and Tennis Club, were 3—6, 12—10; 7—5, 6—3. The same remarkable ability to volley at the net which has charac- terized their play in other matches, was the reason for the success of Army’s Rifle Team Wins Over Colonials Army’s rifle team opened its second season yesterday by defeating the George Washington University shoot- ers on the Camp Simms Range.in « six-man match by the score of 1,402 to 1,335. In the last fifteen years, Army has lost only two matches. This match was the only one scheduled away from West Point this year. Capt. Ewbank led the Cadets with a score of 239, while Capt. Harrell of the Colonials was best for his team. Thuney, a Washington boy on the Army Team, shot 227. The shoot- ing was conducted under the follow- ing conditions: 200 yards offhand, 200 yards rapid fire, 300 yards rapid fir and 1,600 yards prone. . The summaries: CG.

The schedule of the impending sea- ‘son's matches is a remarkably thor- ough job. As far as I remember it 's the first time a local league ever took notice of the fact that it rains in Washington. Four periods are evenly placed in the schedule to take care of the postponed matches, with courts reserved, and everything. Seven teams are ready for the sea- They are the Filipinos, Kann’s, Commerce, De Molay, Edgewood, Bur- roughs and the O’Briens and Ritzen- bergs, a team which has treasonably renamed themselves “The Claire- monts.” This latter group, by the way,-has drafted a trio of Henry Park’s well-known racquetmen, Bill Seidel.

He thinks it will re- store interest in it. With the coaches off the benches during the course of games, he believes the players will Play harder and become more self- reliant. Perhaps, under thosé cir- cumstances, he thinks the game will grow more thrilling. Now we hear the players don’t want to be the whole show. They can not and never will be able to do as well minus the instruction, strategy and inspiration of an experienced head. They would rather play good baseball than have the right to direct their own actions. First College Baseball “Guide” Is Out. For the first time, a college base- ball “guide” is published. Spalding’s is circulating it. Compared with other sports “guides,” it suffers nothing in comprehensiveness and authenticity. Every section, practically every con- ference in the country, is represented by a review which includes statistics In the first issue, a denial that col- lege baseball is slipping is made by Harry Wolter, director of baseball of Stanford University. As an argu- ment, he cites a remarkable expansion of the game on the Coast during the past six years. Stanford will open a new park next season. In Defense of Tennis.

NNAPOLIS, M4., April 26.—Toss- ets from Emerson Institute, of Washington, wéte badly battered by the Naval Academy Piebe Team today, the youthful Midshipmen win- ning, 18 to 4. The Tar proteges of Ensign T. Huff Walsh had a number of batting rallies which, together with wildness on the art of Tech pitchers, resulted in the ig margin venport, lanky right-hander from Davenport, Iowa, was in good trim for the Middies. He allowed the visitors but seven hits and fanned nine. Em- erson took advantage of its every break on the attack and to gather its four runs. Ray Davidson, chunky portsider, be- gan on the hill for Emerson and managed to get by the first without a score and the second with only one run, but In the third three bases on balls, hits by Davenport, White and Wright, together with a boot by Tril- ling, netted the Middies half a dozen tallies. Plebes Add Three In Fourth. Three more Midshipmen scored in the fourth and after four more had counted in the fifth, Busher was called im from right field and he did considerably better, though also dent- ed for a quartet of tallies in the sev- enth., Navy ran the bases brilliantly, tak- ing many chances and making good on nearly every one. The redeeming feature for Emérson was the hitting and fielding of Shapiro in left. He pulled a home run to open the game and later got a double and a single. Navy. AlEmerson.

Reviewing the clubs 3 ; uations of regulars of the 1 have not been filled to the entire isfaction of the coaches, and mentors of both Eastern and respectively, the champions and ruf- ner-up in 1929, are not very about prospects for the series about to get under way this week. Eastern Faces Task To Retain Title. The champions of 1928 and 1929, Eastern, have a difficult task before them to live up to thelr two-year record in series play, the copping of eight straight series games, because field of Shapiro, Ware and whose heavy hitting was a prominent factor tn 1929, as well as Fisher, Zehn and Capelli, three-fourths of the im- field, and Hanna, who twirled the four interhigh games, are missing this year, and “Chief” Guyon has his work cut out for him, attempting to #ll these places.

EW YORK, April 26.—Persistent advices from Cleveland would have one believe that Mr. Fat Meade is holding a few chips again. and your correspondent hopes this is quite Fie wee Mr. Meade is one of your porsient’s favorite prize- fight managers, a few years younger than Uncle Will Gibson and Dumb Daniel Morgan, but of the same gen- eral school. The prize-fight industry lost its sense of humor when such amiable Play-fellows gradually withdrew and @® new type of prize-fight manager muscled into the business, buying up fighters’ contracts with bootleg money @nd applying the methods of the alky Tacket to a game that used to enjoy its moments of hilarity. Gunmen are Serious-minded lot, and a joke is practically the only thing they can be Telied on not to take, whereas the old Doys used to enjoy many happy hours Stealing little advantages over one an- Other and doing as they had been done by. Would Wash Down Their Bitterness. “Not that they wouldn’t have their Spells of scowling and sulking and re- fusing to speak as they passed by, for they were downright womanish about some of their little spats and would Keep a hate on the books for months Gta spell. But presently some night they would meet in some foggy room in Philadelphia or Buffalo and wash down the bitterness with something or other and meander out full of brotherly feeling and pretzels and What not drawn from the wood. The Best way to cure such gripes is to Grug.them with pretzels and what not Grawn from the wood: but the gun- men are a sober lot, and the only way they know is to shoot them out, which @nly causes further il! feeling, disor- Ger and woe. Your correspondent has been re- Ceiving advices by telegram and let- r for several months to the effect that Fat Meade has finally established Dusiness relations with a couple of Prize fighters who are able to support him in the manner to which he was once accustomed. One Named Fitzgerald Upset Champion. There is one named Johnny Farr, a lightweight, who fights in a scuffling, tussling style, and another named Freddie Fitzgerald. a welterweight, Who. had the honor to upset Jakie Kinklestein, the champion, for a few moments on a night not long ago, al- though Jakie then hopped up and in- terrupted Freddie for the evening. ‘Between them, these two boys are Maintaining Fat Meade in something like luxury nowadays, and it is to be Moped that they appreciate the honor Of their position, because Mr. Meade ig a very pleasant and deserving fat man who never counted the cost when he had chips piled so high he could Mardly see over them. In those days, Mr. Meade would merely clap his large, moist palms for the waiter. throw him a hundred dollar bil] and | Say “Take it out of that.” That was when he was the manager of Joe Lynch, the bantamweight champion, they were for Mr. Meade and also for a large personal following of hungry, thirsty, idle men about various towns In the course of a couple of years, Mr. Meade made about $100.000 in one way and another as the manager of Joey Lynch, and then, one day, Joey fetired from under him, so to speak, leaving Mr. Meade in a predicament ZI believe he would have been quite willing to go to work, but the fact that he didn’t know much about work, never having had any experience im that line. Johnny Cox Tells of Fouching Incidents. “Work,” he used to say. “Of course I would like to work, but where does @ guy learn how?” Mr. Broadway Johnny Cox, who as- sisted Mr. Meade in wishing he knew how to work, has told me of many touching incidents in their career to- gether both before and after the @isastrous retirement of Joey Lynch. .“You never saw such a generous man as Mr. Meade,” said he “Always buying presents for his friends and taking a lot of bums to dinner and bailing their baggage out of hotels and staking them to railroad fare to see their old mother out in Cali- fornia. It is a very strange thing to me that when a bum is on Broadway his mother is always sick in California, and when a bum is in Seattle, his mother is always sick in New York. “Pat comes from over around Hell’s Kitchen, and, of course, a lot of the neighbor boys were sent away 1 school in the course of time, some of then to Sing Sing and some of them to Atlanta, and such places. There were two boys up in Charleston that Mr.-Meade was always sending pres- ents to because they were “the vic- tims of prejudice and injustice, and he was sorry for them. They had been playmates together in his boy- hood days, and they had enjoyed many happy hours at their innocent Pranks, throwing chimney bricks off the roofs at the cops, but, when Fat# ew u to man’s estate, frivolity behind him and down to a serious career as a mana- ger of pugilists. Drug Store Hold-Up Was Good Joke. These other two boys, though, just Would not take life serjously, and one might they thought it would be a good joke to hoist a drug store some- where up in Massachusetts. They ex- plained that they were only fooling and meant to return the money, but the Massachusetts people are very Marrow minded toward New York boys, and they put these boys away for twenty years. But, as the years went by and Fat began to make all that money with Joe Lynch, he al- ‘Ways sent then, presents of cakes and Bananas and sweaters and money. I often used to think that it might be a good idea to inclose a few files jm a cake because the boys might want to manicure their nails, but he mever thought very well of that. “Then there was a time when we were in St. Louis and a fellow came around and offered us a pound ot cocaine at a great bargain Of course. meither Fat nor I used cocaine in any Way, shape or form, but Fat got to gma about a poor fellow back on Tenth avenue who used it to ex- cess and never could get enough, be- @ause it was so expensive, and he was all for buying it as a present for this friend. »“*It is only 500 bucks,’ he said to me, ‘and think of the pleasure it would give my old pal to get a pound al) at once.’ “But I argued him out of it on the und that it might not be his old I's brand of cocaine, and we went on to New York without it.

ONDON, April 26 (A.P.).—Great Britain's Davis Cup players came from behind with a pair of /amashing victories in the closing sin- | gles today contest with Germany by a count of to win thetr first round three matches to two. After losing the first two singles and needing to win all three of the their sensationa] rally yesterday by winning the doubles and today tey achieved their goal through the pril- liant playing of Henry Austin end H. G. N. Lee. The youthful Austin, former Cam- bridge captain, fully atoned for his disappointing play of the opening day by trouncing the German ace, Daniel Prenn, 6—3, 6—4, 7—5. With the count at two matches apiece, the is- sue now lay entirely in the hands of H. G. N. Lee, of Britain, and Dr. Heinz Landman, German veteran, and Lee came through at 5—7, 6—3, 6—2, 6—3. Britons Confident of Singles Players. Britons now are confident that their singles players have found themselves and with the aid of J. C. Gregory and I. G. Collins in doubles will go a long way in the European zone play. Lee made a fine record in recent play on the Riveria, while Austin, despite his youth, is an experienced interna- tional campaigner. Austin never played better than in his match with Prenn and the Ger- man never had a chance. Against Landmann in the cruical match, Lee steadied after losing the opening set and was never in the slightest danger thereafter. (Manor) and R. N. Burnham (Manor); f Bea A. Bennett (Cong.) and E.

The unorthodox golfer who started 71-69 in the last British title event, slump- but still finished third, was stopped long enough for a few | questions. “What do you think of the removal of the British ban on steel shafted clubs?” “Not interested. I don’t use them.” “What of the merits of the larger and lighter ball against the smaller and heavier?” “One ball’s as good as another if you hit it right.” | “Suppose the British should put a limit on the number of clubs a player Can carry?” Has 53 Clubs With 36 More Ordered. “Then. I'm .rulned and might as well stay at home.” In his two bags, with all the re- turns not yet in, the P. G..A. cham- pion has 31 irons, 14 woods and eight putters. Every indication is that the crop of putters will grow. No golfer in the world has experimented with more putters than the smiling Le*. “Funny about the putters I ex- pected to meet me here,” he said. “They haven't shown up yet, and I’m sailing Wednesday.” “What putters?” “Oh, only three dozen from which I expect to pick out a few to use in Great Britain. “Putting is more important there than anywhere else in the world. A player who can't putt might as well stay on the boat. It won't do him any good to get off.” Diegel’s putting stance is a strange creation, unlike that of any other first-class golfer. Fe has been likened to a crab as he swings the putter pendulum fashion from a posture far from the graceful attitude usually associated with good putting. But Leo at times can place the ball in close proximity to the cup from 40 and 50 feet and he sends many a 10 and 12 footer straigit into the cup. Diegel on 5 Months’ Leave From Agua Caliente. The former Fenimore professional, paying his first visit to New York in eight months, is on a five months’ leave of absence from ..gua Caliente, Mexico, where he is the professional. Before he'returns “down below” he will defend his P. G. A., a title at Fresh Meadow, and play in a number of other events in the Metropolitan district. He will-also isit Canada to defend his Canadian open crown, which he has won four times. The conversation returned to the half hupdred clubs cluttering Diegel's apartment, with three dozen still un- accounted for. ° “Do you expect to use all these clubs?” “No, no, but I would hate very much to find myself in urgent need of one of them when I am in Great States or Mexico.” A somewhat hesitant word of sym- pathy was expressed for the caddies who will carry the clubs over the long stretch of the British champion- ship at Hoylake and two 36-hole matches with Abe Mitchell. “T’ll pay ‘em,” said Leo. “Many a tournament my caddy has realized more than I when the pay-off came.” District A. A. U. Tank Meet Attracts 5 S. A. Champions Field of 60 to Compete in Title Tourney Which Starts in Ambassador Pool Tomorrow Night. ORE than 60 entries, represent- ing seven organizations, have been filed for the first annual of Columbia Association, A. swimming championship for men and women, scheduled to open tomorrow night and continue Tues- day night in the pool of the Ambas- sador Hotel. The program tomorrow, starting at 7:30 o'clock, will consist of twelve events, while the program for the second night will consist of ten, both including heats and finals. The events for men will be 150-yard back stroke, fancy diving (low board), 210-yard medley (3 lengths each back stroke, breast stroke and crawl] stroke), 220- yard breast stroke, 220-yard free style. 200-yard relay and 100-yard for no- vices. Those for women are 210-yard medley, 100-yard free style, 220-yard free style, 100-yard back stroke, 100- yard breast stroke, fancy diving, 200- yard relay and 100-yafd for novices. As this is the first championship swimming meet conducted by the District of Columbia Association, all winning times will be recognized as records. Five champions of the South At- lantic Association, two of them Washingtonians, will be seen in ac- tion. Clifford Sanford, formerly of Central High School, now represent- ing the Washington Swimming Club, holds the South Atlantic outdoor high board diving title, and will compete in the low board event of this meet, the only diving event listed for men on the .

By RICHARD 8. TENNYSON. HE unwillingness of the British kickers of the District to place n has caused postpone ent of eleven ca a of the opening of the ington and Southeastern District Soccer Assocta- tions international series. Originally there were five teams scheduled to play for the interna- tional title, namely: Irish, Americans, will play and the following week jhe Irish and Scotch probably will be scheduled. It is understood that the the refusal of the English kickers to Washington Assaciation granted a re- play of the Marlboro-British United rule wrong. John MacBeth, sociation, stated nt of the as- by the English only course replay of the game in question, as it was proven conclusively that a ryle had been interpreted wrong in the game disputed. Decision Hardship On British. Mr. MacBeth’s statement was: “We fully realize the hardship it works on British United to have a game re- played which it had won, but, of [the other hand, we had to take in consideration the viewpoint of Marl- boro, who felt that it had suffered through a mistake of the referee. Had Marlboro’s protest been based on a decision of the referee on a matter of opinion it would not have been given consideration, but as it was on the question of a rule, which the referee admitted he overlooked, there was but one path left for us to follow.” , The rule comes under law 10 of the soccer rules. The first sentence of the rule covers Marlboro’s protest. It reads: “When a free kick has been awarded, thé kicker’s opponents shal! not approach within 10 yards of the ball, until the kick is taken, unless they are standing on their own goal line!” e In the w ng minutes of the Marlboro-British United game, Goal- keeper Keep, of the Uniteds, took more than the allotted two steps with the ball in his hand, and the referee gave a free kick. The kick was given about 6 yards from the goal li@e, and, according to the rule. the British United players should have been placed on their goal line, but, instead, the referee told them to stand half the distance between the Place of taking the kick and the line. All of which was admitted by the referee. . Soccer Here Survives Petty Grudges. Mr. MacBeth also stated that the leagues and association had gone through a hard season with a rini- now being made by a few individuals to criticize the whole structure be- cause a just ruling did not favor them could certainly not be consid- ered “comstructive criticism,” which he always welcomed. Other observers are of the same opinion as Mr. MacBeth. Soccer, still in its infancy in Washington showed the hold that it has taken in a short time when it survived a well planned effort at the start of the present sea- son to disorganize it merely to satisfy a few personal grudges. It is true these attempts worked a hardship o the league and association officials, but the game has survived and the fa furnished with plenty of sport during the year, British United has appealed the de- cision of the association as a pre- liminary move toward sending a final appeal to the United States Football Association. Next Tuesday night, .t 8 o’@ock, the W. S. D. 8. A. will meet in Room 2, Distri¢t Building, to*con- sider the United's appeal. Washington Aiumni Finance Crews’ Trip Seattle, Wash., April 26 (A.P.)-— The University of Washington's va-- sity, junior varsity and freshman crews were assured today of competi- tion in the National Rowing Regatta at Poughkeepsie next June when the Washington alumni organization an- nounced it had raised $18,000 by popular subscription to cover éexX- penses of the trip. Parsons and Cook Win Traps Honors Parsons and Cook won top honors in the two-man team contest of the Washington Gun Club at the Ben- ning traps yesterday. Three other pairs were but one target behind the winners, however. Marcey and Shelton, Stine and Bartholomew and Hunter and Messick tied for second honors. Culver and Livesey each won a leg on the Upson Cup. Lane broke a per- fect score of 50 in practice doubles. Messick and Fawcett each scored a 24.

Allan said this ruling permits driv- ers to carry mechanics only in races at Indianapolis, where the annual 500 mile classic will be staged May 30, and at the wooden oval at Altoona, Pa.

The episode in which Dawson so unpleasantly figured, by the way, has occasioned no little discussion in the locker rooms. Only last Sunday, at the Bannockburn Club, a group of members, including “W. Fred Byrne, chairman of the golf committee; T. W. McGuire, W. L. t, Harry Harwood and several others became involved in an animated conversa- tion when some one asked. “What do you think of the Dawson case and the way he was treavéd by the United States Golf Association?” If the truth must be-*sold. there was universal sympathy for Dawson. Everybody agreed that amateurism must be strictly enforced, but in Daw- son’s case, as was pointed ovt, -he had at first declined to enter the Pinehurst event, and had only agreed to play when especially invited. Then, having qualified, he was sud- denly ousted by the national associa- tion on the ground that as a sales- man of gol goods he was barred from amateur competition. Points Develop of Interest. The symposium, which lasted for nearly an hour, developed several points which are of interest to golfers peverywhere. In the first place, the manner in which the national organi- zation handled the case of Francis Ouimet many years ago was recalled, Ouimet, it will be remembered, was declared a professional because ‘he opened a sporting goods store in Boston. ¢ Public sympathy was with Ouimet. More than this, the Western Golf As- sociation allowed him to play in the Western amateur championship and the U. 8. G. A., which had blacklisted him, never said a word. Quimet played also in sectional events and club invitation tournaments without question. Not once was the heavy hand of authority laid upon him. He was not summarily removed from any competition—the fate which was meted out to Dawson at Pinehurst. No one doubts the authority of the U. 8. G. A. to supervise the personne] of national championships, but until it interfered with the procedure at Pinehurst it had kept its hands off all other events. Technically and literally, it has jurisdiction over -all competitions played under its rules and it is now evident that it pro- poses to assert this authority. What the outcome will be no one can tell. Dawson O. K. in England. Dawson is a professional under the decision of the United States Golf Association, but the British permit representatives of athletic supply houses to compete in the British am- ateur championships. Dawson played in one of these last Year and reached the semifinals. What if he should elect fo play again this year? \The general sentiment expressed among golfers who have discussed Dawson’s case is that the Pinehurst officials should have stood k of their invited guest and insisted that he play through the tournament, but perhaps they were afraid of a ruction with the national organiza- tion. The pressure which the rul- ing body exerted at Pinehurst, if the Pinehurst officials had not ylelded. might have gone to the extent of barring from national competitions all the amateurs who played in the North and South. If the United States Golf Association has now de- termined to exercise prerogatives which have long been dormant, as seems evident, it will have a veto power on sectional tournaments as well as national fixtures. U. S. G. A. Show Go The Limit. Having disposed of Dawson in a somewhat ruthless «fashion, the United States Golf Association should now go thé limit. Amateurs who give instruction through magazine articles, for which they receive pay, should be put in the same categ as profes- sionals who receive money for teach- ing on the practice tee. Amateurs who profit by so-called inventions, to which their mames are attached and which are marketed by sporting goods firms, and amateurs who sell insurance and stocks and bonds be- cause they are nationally knowg play- ers, should be dealt with as sum- marily as Dawson. The latter was not engaged because he was a great golfer. He became a great golfer long after he had entered upon his employment. Accarding to the United States Golf Association, he should have given up the employment for which he had become fitted through many years’ ex- perience or suffered disqualification as an amateur. This does not seem fair nor logical, but as this was the out- come of the Pinehurst tournament, the United States Golf Association should -hew to the line, let the chips fall where they may. Converse Makes Ace Up Drain Pipe. Sam Converse made the seventeenth at Bannockburn in one last week. The green is 184 yards from the tee and is guarded by a ditch in which there is a drain pipe about 6 inches in diam- eter. After Converse’s tee shot the bal] disappeared in the pipe. Harry D. Cashman has been named as the chairman of the subcommittee on handicaps of the golf committee of the Washington if and Country Club. Ray J. M n is the new chairman of the house committee and will be assisted by J. E. Rice. On the course of the Indian Spring Club last Sunday were four players— Robert E. J. Whalen, Harry Whelan, Neil Burkinshaw and W. B. O’Connor. + “to a lie,” replied Whalen, ahd in order to prove his contention lifted the ball . - grass. “ chorused his 1101—23—78; W.

Thereupon ensued an animated discussion, but Whalen was allowed te play the ball from its final position without penalty. ‘ | All through the second nine the sumed when the quartet reached the locker room. The rule book was con- sulted. It shows that a ball i in ground under repair may be } ference being that this lifting and did not specify how many times the action might be taken, it was optional he was satisfied with the lie of the height when ; * chairman of the golf committee, en- tered the locker room. He was told that ground under repair was under discussion. 7 : “What ground under repair?” he inquired. “On the ninth hole,” ply. “There is no ground under repair,” remarked McCarter, “anywhere in the course.” Whalen looked at his three com- was the re- “Let’s call all bets off,” said Whalen. which began not long ago with four four-men teams, now has fourteen four-men teams and 50 substitutes. Who says that golf is not spreading like a yellow-fever epiuemic? Calfee Hole Record; Freaks Help. The’ remarkable score made by P. W. Calfee when he played the second nine of the, Washington course in 30 strokes—a record which has never been equaled and is not likely to be duplicated—is still a matter of con- versation among the club members. It was a freak round in more ways than one. For instance, he had seven sliced drives but he took only ten putts on nine holes. nning with the tenth, he ran down a'‘35-foot putt for a birdie 3. On the eleventh he holed out for a in two putts for a 4. On the four- teenth, after a drive far to the right, he pitched close to the cup and holed out with a single putt for a par 3. On the long fifteenth, 446 yards, he chipped into the cup from off the green for an eagle On the six- teenth he drove into a trap, was just. out with his second, pitched to the edge of the cup with his third and holed out fora par 4. On the seven- teenth he again sliced from the tee, was short of the trap on his second, but pitched close enough to the pin to hole out with a single putt. The eighteenth was played in legitimate fashion—on the green in 2 and cown in 2 putts. He had, therefore, six single-putt greens, two putts on two greens and on the fifteenth holed out without putting. Here is his card: $24333 44 4—30. Calfee was playing with Denise Barkalow and Paul V. Keyser. As he took 42 strokes on the outward journey his card for the eighteen holes totaled 72. Willis Has String Of 1 Putts. Speaking of single putts, J. M. Willis finished his round .on the Washington course last Sunday with single putts on the last four holes. He had twelve single-putt greens dur- ing his round. He was playing with A. M. Porter, Eugene Godden and Dr. Clarence Kelly. Owing to the congesteq condition of the course the board of governors of the Congressional Country Club de- cided last week not to grant this year to the students of Georgetown Uni- versity the privilege of playing prac- tice rounds on the course. Nearly 250 members teed off last Sunday. For some-~time the Congressional Club has had under consideration the question of remodeling the present tenth hole. Before undertaking the work, however, Henry J. Richardson, chairman of the green committee, will, by authority of the board, engage Donald Ross, the well-known golf architect, to survey the course and suggest any changes, these alterations to be permanent. Ross will visit the course in the near future. Argyle’s No. 6 and 9 Are Hardest. Of the nine holes at the Argype Club the vote for the hardest to make in par usually goes either to the par 4, 41l-yard sixth, or the par 4 438-yard ninth, but to decide between the two usually leads to considerable argu- ment. In going over the score sheet of the kickers’ handicap held last Sunday, Percy W. LeBuc, chairman of the green committee, found that of the 125 pars and 6 birdies made by the 40-odd players in the tourna- ment, there were six pars made on the ninth and only four pars on the sixth, with no birdies on either, these holes proving the most difficult to score on. The fifth hole, par 4, 275 yards, proved the easiest, the players making 22 pars and 3 birdies. The next easiest was the second, par 4, 315 yards, with 20 pars and 3 birdies. The annual meeting of the Bright~- wood ex-Caddies Association was held last week at the Argyle Club. George C. Gist was .elected president, with Thomas 8. Pitt vice president. Ed- ward L. Mc was reelected secre- tary and Harry G. Pitt was chosen treasurer. It wag decided to hold a tournament next fall on a course to be selected and a committee was named to frame a constitution, the principal provision of which will be a clause restricting membership to players who were actually caddies in the Brightwood section.

Mother Jones was also active in the Organization and distribution of the Appeal to Reason, one of the éarliest labor journals. She latér denounced the paper when it became too radical to suit her. Mother Jones lived rennially amid thé angry elements, ut Nad no patience with those who would tear down without building up. She defied Federal Courts and their injunctions, she dared govérnors. to do their worst, and she once called a judge on the betich a “scab,” yet she wes never in jail longer than a few Gays at a time. ; Her greatest triumph, she says, came when she effected a compromise with John D. Rockefellér, jr., follow- ing the Ludlow “massacre” in Colo- rado. “I told Mr. Rockefeller the truth,” she says, “and when he saw that I was right he speedily reme- Gied conditions.” ‘ Mother Jones organized children for a march on Oyster Bay when Roose- velt was President, and is credited with bringing about many reforms in child labor. She was in the midst of virtually every major strike occur- ring in the last 60 years, and she is still active.

I knew a woman who found one in an unexpected way. & was faced with the necessity of éarn- ing more money, and for some time groped about in the dark. She tried to think of some ability or of some talent which shé could commercial- ize. but for a long time she could think of none. “What am I interested in more than the average woman?” she asked her- self Becomes Health Teacher. It was in exercise and diet. She had a strong yoting body and had once ranked well as a tennis player. “Maybe I could teach other women something about health and exer- cise,” she thought. She began to study up on diet, she read Hooks on ft and took @ cotirse in dietetics. She studied exercise and | systems of exercise until she knéw & great deal about it, and then she went to a club and made arrange- ments to usé the loungé room during certain hours each week. She then started to’ organize a health class. She went to her friends and acquaint- ances, and to the people whose names were given to her and explained what she was doing, and got them to join hér health’ class. was able to start with five, but soon bullt it up to ten. When it grew larger than this in numbers she made two classes and had them at different hours. There were many women who were suffering from ailments which could be helped by exercise, and in some cases cured. The women knew this, but they would not do the exercises when alone in the room. Which is only human nature. The first. part of the hour she gives up to a health discussion, and then the rest of the hour is devoted to the exercises themsel¥es. She has for the purpose a few simple music rec- ords which she plays on a gramo- phone to give the women the swing of the exercises and to kéép the exer- cises from seeming like work. During the winter the classés are a success, but in the summer the wom- en gO away, so she gives thém up. But €ach winter she starts again, Party Specialist Proposed. Are you what is sometimes called a “fancy cook?” That is, can you make attractive desserts? If so, and if with it u have an ability to arrange table decorations neatly and artisti- cally, you can become a pafty spe- cialist. As dinner parties become more and more elaborate, the hostess finds her- self swamped with work, and before the party begins she is completely tired out. Women who entertain a great deal for social reasons, oF women who must entertain a great deal for political or Business rea- sons, are now beginning to Avail themselves of the services of a party specialist, or assistant hostess. party specialist is needed not only at dinners, but also at weddings, re- céptions and bridge parties. IM a growing field and one well worth cultivating. You will have two duties, the prac- tical and the artistic. In the artis- tic’end you willl be expected to think up ideas for decorations, novelties for the table and pleasant little guest surprises. You will havé to study the house, the drawing room or the dining room, and suggest something that will make it more homelike and more cheerful, or which will fit in with the spirit of the occasion. In the practical end gou should know how to prepare some special dessert, some unusual salad, or make some tempting kind of cake or cookle If you have these abilities, by all means cash In on them. Have some pictures made of tables you have arranged. or of decorations you have planned—have something tangible to show what you can do. Watch the papers to see when wom- en of means are going fo entertafh, and then call them up, tell them you | have some ideas about entertaining and ask to come and see them.

Once, according to Roosévelt’s valet Who included it in his book, “Roose y fixed their eyes and then started t—over fallen trees, down gullies, up their stéép sides, over fences, and at last they came to s deep creek. The Ambassador looked up and down the creek for a bridge. but as he looked he was amazed to see Roosevelt and the boys skinning out of their clothes. without a word of comment. Doing their clothes up into bundles, they held them high above their heads and started across the deep creek. Ambassador Jusser- and stood a ént staring at them, but theré was nothing else to do. and so he took off his clothes and fol- lowed. Only an incident, but béhind it ts & principle, a principle that will make the difference between success and failure. When you start out to make money, fix your mind on a goal and let nothing turn you asidé. Make earning money a point-to-point hike and you will get somewhere. I kmow one woman in the city who icks up a good many extra dollars or herself during the course of a year in & very simple, practical way. She watches the apartment houses and private homes in her section of the city and when she sees a “rented” or “sold” sign go up, then she goes and sees the woman and asks to hélp her with her curtains. She will take either the old cur- tains and cut them and refit them. or she will undertake to put up new curtains, Due to her experience she can make suggestions about the cur- tains which will almost save the amount she charges. To have help with her curtains usually appeals to the employer, as at this time she has a mountain of work on hand, and here is somebody drop- ped straight from heaven. Colors Are Suggested. Sometimes she makes suggestions about colors and decorations to her employer, but usually she follows out the woman's ideas without suggest- ing any of her own. To get the prospects, she not only watches the. rented and sold signs, but goes to the superintendent of the apartment house and offers to pay him a commission on the work he gets for her; also she watches the real estate columns for sales and pur- chases and frequently writes to the er diréct before they have moved n If you live in a city of 50,000 or more, and if you Know something about music; you have at hand a méans ‘to add to your income. Start a musicians’ booking agency. There is # constant :all for musicians, and usually the orchestra leaders depend on themselves to get engagements, and as 4 result getting engagements is ugually run in a higgly-piggly way. These calls come from different lodges, party dances, business organi- gations having an “evening,” frater- nity dances, salesmen’s clubs, and s0 on, When they decide to have music, one of thé members is usually asked to see what can be done in the way of “music.” He makes a few in- quiries, and finally decides on an or- chestra. Supply this want by being a cen- tral booking bureau. Get acquainted with the musicians in your city, find who are their orchestra leaders, hear them play and explain your pign. Get in touch with all the organizations in your city who are apt to need mu- sic, and explain that your business is to furnish music and musicians.

Strict rules and regulations never did fit in with the artistic temperament easily It Wasn't so long ago that ina Claire mot only went to Hollywood and made a picturé or two, but mar- ried the handsome John Gilbert, as well. Then something happened to her film career Reporte say she bde- came of & notion to return to Broad- way and do some more of the sort of acting she loves, far from the mad- ding throng. One thing Miss Claire discovered was the fact that she can be her own boss in the spoken stage drama, while there were plenty to give her orders on the picture lot. And Miss Claire ise a young woman with a strong will of her own. Then there is Lenore Ulric, tne alluring; the talented. This young womah reached the top rung of the Belasco ladder. She fought off film offers for a long time and finally, heaskened to the call of the camera Out to Hollywood she went and about that titme it came to light she had a husband, none other than Sidney Biackmer. Miss Ulric made a picture and it was @ good one. Now, how- ever. shé appears to herve given up film work and is directing her ambi- tions in the direction of the Belasco headquarters again i 7 > o May Be Belasco Star Again. 1 would not bé-surprised to see Miss Ulric étarring once more under the Belasco management next season. although I heave ne assurance at this time that such a plan wil) be carried out. But the dean of American pro- ducers knows her qualifications and would not be averse, I am sure. to having her appear under his banner It would mean added laurels for her and financia) gain for him. The com- bination of Ulric and Belasco—or re- verse if you wish—has always been unbeatable in American circles Another spoken stage star who did hot make a go Of motion pictures is George Jéssél. He acted in several films, but then he made an arrange- ment which released him from Fox control. Now he is back in the realm of the regular stage as star and pro- ducer. After he returns from an Euro- pean vacation he intends to stage three or four productions. And there are others. Some of these days I wouldn't be surprised to see Al Jolson starring in another musical production. He has done marvelously well in pictures, but A] is both wealthy and temperamental. He is a genius who likes to do what he likes to do— ee ee 1} si — ee eee re ee ee me and there is no telling when he will take a notion. F Her First Play. O you, dear reader, it may not stem strange that among 4!) New York's 6,000,000 inhabitants, there should be a 17-year-old girl who never has seen a spoken stage play But to me, it was hard t understand, since the greater city has nearly 100 theaters, including those in the out- lying districts, at which plays are given. However, 1 fan across such & girl He name is Betty Fishman and she is a New York University fresh- man Little Miss Pishman called at my office to interview me for the college weekly publication. The first queés- tion she asked was: “Tell me, what is a spoken play like? I've never seen one.” Immediately I c-'led up Charlies B Coburn, who, with his wife, ls appear- ing in “The Plutocrat,.” at the Van- derbilt Theater, and he extended Miss Fishman an invitation to see the play. She attended with her mother “It was wonderful,” she said later, “but the voices weren't as loud as those in the movies.” 7 — > Burke Has a Plan. ® to come sooner or later T had theatrical | me ee ee Se ee has feverishly turned theatrical | producer and is about to stage an in- timate revue called “Check and ' Double Check.” Now where did he get the idea and the title, I wonder?

FT ODT MV CAPITAL 15 BEGUN BY COMMISSIONERS District Heads Seek Relief From Duties Required in Trivial Business. ASK SUBORDINATES TO BE HELD TO ACCOUNT Legislation Planend by Trio Which May Be Presented to Congress. Means with which to cut the red tape which surrounds their actions are being sought by the new Board of District Commissioners. Just what is to be done the new Commissioners do not know, but they are convinced that under the existing system the administrative heads of the District government are com- Manded to spend entirely too much time in purely formal] action. Under the law and the precedence of practice the Commissioners must pass upon the sick leave of the most minor District employe, pass on che transfer of a police private from one precinct to another or from one as- signment to another within the same precinct, give their approval to the award of a small contract which must be awarded to a certain individual in conformity with law and pass on the administrativs action of each of their department heads. Seek to Place Responsibility Now that sort of administration doesn’t fall within the field of effi- clency as it is marked out by Dr. Luther H. Reichelderfer and Maj. Gen. Herbert B. Crosby, retired, the new Commissioners, and Col. William B. Ladue, Engineer Commissioner, also believes that the various isolated laws enacted for the District have piled upon the Commissioners too much detail. The new Board of Commissioners began to buck within a day or two after they had assumed office. The Getails presented for their approval didn’t impress them. They had to be, in any event, guided by the recom- mendations of their subordinates They want the subordinates to have the responsibility. Cloaking their department heads with requisite responsibility the new Commissioners want to hold them strictly to account. There is no sen- timent about the matter, and if a department head can’t run his de- partment properly, then he doesn't Delong at its head, the Commission- ers feel. Beats Army Red Tape. “My Lord,” Gen. Crosby is said to have exclaimed to a friend, “what do you mean when you speak about red tape in the Army? This has got anything I’ve ever seen licked.” Dr. Reichelderfer, who was in com- mand of hospitals and corps of phy- sicians and surgeons for several years before his retirement from active practice, felt just about the same way. William W. Bride, corporation coun- sel, was given the task of finding out just how much of the red tape the new Commissioners could cut away so that they would have more time to give to the major problems of their jobs. But so detailed and specific were the various laws that the Com- missioners withdrew their request for another plan until they had had more time to study the situation themselves. Congress Action Seen. “My goodness,” one of the Commis- sioners exclaimed, “why should I have to pass on the request of Jacob Schniglefritz to erect a sign on his delicatessen store out on the edge of town. All I can do is to accept, the recommendation of my department head, and I do not know any more afterward than I did before. It seems to me that the Commissioners are loaded up with so much detail that they. can't possibly give adequate at- tention to the major aspects of ad- ministration. We will always have the safeguard of checking our subor- dinates, and that, it seems to me, should be adequate.” Mr. Bride is understood to have sug- gested a plan for helping the situa- tion somewhat, but the matter has been left at rest for the time being. Legislation looking to alleviation of the situation is under consideration by the new Commissioners and may be recommended soon to Congress.

What | street, WASHINGTON POST; SUNDAY. ‘APRIL 27, 1930, | SEIZURE OF CHOICE | QUORS REPORTED SERIES OF RAIDS Police Arrest Man in Chase Through a City Thoroughfare. MACHINE IS TAKEN WITH ALLEGED RUM Number Slips Are Reported Found by Authorities in Surprise Visit. Liquor and gambling raids in vari- Ous sections of the city yesterday re- sulted in several arrests and the seiz- ure of a quantity of assorted bottled goods by squads working under the direction of Sergt. George M. Little and Sergt. Oscar J. Letterman, who was recently acquitted following a di- rected verdict on a charge of making a warrantless raid. Acting on information that an au- tomobile bearing a Virginia tag was making visits to fashionable hotels. apartment houses and residences with cargoes of choice liquors, Sergt. Lit- tle’s squad late yesterday afternoon, in a lengthy chase through streets and alleys in the neighborhood of Ninth and L streets northwest, cap- tured a Virginia machine driven by Mario Maters, 32 years old, of Alex- andria, Va. Maters was booked on charges of speeding and transportation and pos- session of one bottle of creme de menthe, 12 quarts of champagne and 12 quarts of a well-known brand of old liquor reported found in the ma- chine. Me also was charged with pos- session of 3 ‘quarts of champagne, 14 quarts of cognac and 12 quarts of choice liquors reported located in his rooms on Tenth street near M street northwest, which the raiders entered on a warrant. Another Machine Taken. Early in the afternoon Sergt. Lit- tle’s squad ended a lengthy pursuit by seizing an automobile at First and G streets northwest in which were found six half-gallons of liquor. The policemen declared that they sighted the machine at Second street and Massachusetts avenue northwest and that its two Negro occupants finally leaped from the car and escaped, leaving the machine to crash into a tree. Another of the alleged headquar- ters for the “numbers” games in the District was raided early yesterday afternoon on Fourteenth street near N street northwest, and William Shannon, 30 years old, was charged at the Pirst Precinct station with per- mitting gaming. Seven persons were taken as Government witnesses and later released. Sergt. Letterman, acting on infor- mation which had been given police, entered the establishment, which was on the second floor, by a secret pas- sage way which led him and his men through two heavily barred doors, and they were admitted on the secret pass- word which had been furnished them. Number Slips Taken. Once inside, they confiscated nu- merous number slips, a quantity of gaming paraphernalia and seven add- ing machines. The place had been guarded by six of the reinforced doors, electrically equipped, and other alarm devices. Two other raids netted the raiding squad a small amount of liquor. The first of these, at an address on Pierce street between L and M Streets north- west, resulted in the arrest of two colored persons, Julius Strange, 25 years old, and Donald Harley, 20 years old, who were charged at the First Precinct with possession and sale of 4 quarts of liquor. The other, made in Seaton Court northwest, brought about the arrest of Walter Gorham, 27-year-old col- ored man, who was charged with the sale and possession of 3 quarts of liquor. Emma Smith, 40-year-old colored woman, was also raided by Sergt. Letterman’s squad yesterday in Lees Court, and was charged with sale and -possession of 4 quarts of liquor. All of these cases were booked at the First Precinct. Fresh Series of Raids. Arrested yesterday afternoon in a series of raids by police of the Second Precinct, John Wyer, of Fairmont, W. Va., and Kenneth Hildreth, whose home the police raided on L street, near Eighteenth street northwest, were held for a bond of $2,000 on charges of selling a half pint of alleged liquor and possessing 213 bot- tles of alleged beer. Police say they destroyed 30 gal- lons of beer found fermenting in the house. Grace Houston, colored, was held in another raid on a house on L street, near Third street northwest, and charged with illegal possession of 14 half gallons of alleged liquor.

Monument Elevator To Stop at 450 Mark To facilitate handling of the thou- sands of tourists expected to visit the Washington Monument this sea- son, officials are planning to stop the elevator at the 450-foot mark, requiring passengers to walk the re- maining 100 feet to the top. This plan is expected to eliminate much congestion about the elevator’s "e entrance in the small area at the top, and it has been estimated that it will increase the elevator capacity pér day by 25 per cent.

A final hearing on the Bowman bill to permit small loan, or poor man’s, to operate here will be held orrow morning by & subcommittee of the House District committee. The bill, which is aimed at “boot- leg lenders” who prey upon Gov- ernment workers and othets, is sponsored by the Russell Sage Foundation, which has had it en- acted in many of the States. The bill would permit small loan banks to operate here and charge 38% per cent interest a month on loans up to $300. The present anti- loan shark law limits the interest to 1% per cent. According to the testimony, this is so low that the small loan banks refuse to come to Washington. Holds Rate Too High. Thus far most of the witnesses who have appeared before the sub- committee have been in favor of the Bowman bill. At tomorrow's hearing, It is expected that the opponents will predominate. | Representative Lampert (Republi- can), of Wisconsin, has been stead- fastly against the. bill. He maintains that 3% per cent interest a month is 42 per cent a year, and this, he says, is far too much. Leon Henderson, of the Russell Sage Foundation, points out that the “pootleg leaders” who are operating in the city now charge as much as 150 per cent interest. E. Pearl Warwick, who has made an investigation of small loan banks in lillinois for the department of trade and commerce of that State, has written a letter to Representative Bowman (Republican), of West Vir- ginia, in which she strongly indorses his bill to permit smajl loans here. Participation of Women. “As I go about the different of- fices,”” she says in her letter, “I hear many interesting and varied reasons given by persons who are applying for loans. However, the largest per- centage of loans are nrade to liquidate existing debs. Often loans ate made to pay doctor bills and funeral ex- penses, as well as other emergencies. “Probably 95 per cent of payments on loans are made by women. This is due to the husband being em- ployed and not wanting to lose any time from his work. The wife joins in the note and chattel mortgage and is almost always present when the money.-is obtained—in fact, often sees to it that she gets the money in her own hand first, thus making sure that it is used for @ legitimate purpose. “From my experience, it appears to me that the small loan business is nothing. more than a poor, ,man’s bank, a place where a man who has no collateral to offer or friends to indorse his note may obtain small sums Of money, using his household goods or assignment of wages as se- curlty.. In view of the small size of the loans and the nature of the security offered, the cost of miaking . and collecting them is high.” Dry Agent Denies Theft of Whisky Reports That Seized Rum Was Looted Are Called ' Unfounded. » If any one got some of the more than 20,000 quarts of liquor seized in a raid in the Potomac yards last Thursday; Prohibition Agent W. A. Heddens, in charge of the raid, would like to hear about it. Mr. Heddens said yesterday, fol- lowing reports that some of the liquor had been taken for private consumption by Alexandria citizens, that no evidence has come to him of such looting. “It is almost im- possible to keep track of such a large quantity of liquor,” he: pointed out, but no indication has come to me personally that any of the contra- band is missing. One colored man was seen running away with some, but he was caught.” Mr. Heddens denied reports that Alexandria officials had obtained some of the whisky. He will go to Richmond tomorrow to obtain & court order for the destruction of the liquor. A small quantity is being preserved for evidence. Mr. Heddens has not yet been able to determine who sent the liquor or who was to receive it. The liquor was found stored in sacks in two freight cars. The supply was--valued at $200,000 and contained champagne, rum, gin and whisky. Poor Now Enjoy Nurse Visits on Easy Terms Services of trained nurses on the installment plan, are now available to poor people, a radio audience was told last night by Miss Gertrude H. Bowling, director of the Instruc- tive Visiting Nurse Society. The talk was one of a series presented by the Washington Chamber of Commerce. It was broadcast by station WMAL. Miss Bowling explained that. under the society plan a nurse gives at- tention. to eight or more cases in a day. In this way, the family pays for one eighth of the nurse’s day like the physician, the nurse pays a professional call, renders what ever) service is needed and then passes on to the next case. During 1929, the Visiting Nurse Society made 115,510 visits in Washington and served 13, 837 patients, Miss Bowling told her audience.

Hope springs eternally in the Demo- cratic breast, but it is springiest in that — mellow midseason between elections, 4 after the prostration of defeat has worn off, and when it is safe to speculate upon the victory that lies afar off. This is the season when ever-faithful Demo- crats foresee landslides, avalanches, popular uprisings and political revolu- tions that will blot out of existence the detested and demoralized foe. Among the most ardent of these soothsayers is the New York Times, which harks back to the dark ages of Ameritan history for comfort in the theory that off-year elections invariably favor the Demo- cratic party. It points to the panic of "713 as a precedent for ’30, but it ad- mits that the panic of 1907 was fol- lowed by the election of a Republican President. “But-that was the sole“in- stance,” of course. . “Even.so, the Re- publicaw House plurality was reduced in the very year of Taft’s election.” Panics are not the sole reliance of Democratic hopes. “There were other complicating causes.” In 1882 and 1890 “the admittedly paramount cause was the country’s revolt against a newly enacted high protective tariff.” The low price of wheat was a blessing to the Democrats in 1894, and a “wide-open breach” between Republican leaders in 1910 helped the Democratic cause. “The interesting fact at present-is that all these historic causes appear to be simultaneously in evidence.” So hope sails high, waving her magic wand and casting a hypnotic spell over her wor- shipers. “One familiar remark in regard to the present peculiar situation,” says the Times, “is that the Democratic party has neither policy nor leadership. Yet a similar situation has existed on-other occasions without apparently affecting the result.” ‘To be sure!. When panic, unemployment, tariff revolt and Repub- lican dissension are all combining to bring Democratic victory, why worry because of a lack of policy or leader- ship? Any mere mob could win against the Republicans—in April, May, June, July, August, September and October. It is only when chill November’s surly blast withers the fields and forests that Démocratic hopes curl up and die. Glorious summer and golden autumn nourish these hopes, but with the ap- proach of winter the detested foe wipes out all evidence of panic, finds a way to diminish unemployment, bamboozles industry and labor into believing that high . protection is a blessing, and patches up party quarrels. By election day the tough old Republican elephant appears with sharpened tusks and a dangerous glint in his wicked little eyes. Now is the time for reveling in the prospect of landslides and upheavals. No Democrat who is true to type will ‘forego the pleasure of premature vic- tories and imaginary slaughterings during this spring and summer. If ever he i& to be happy, it must be be- fore election day. FLOOD DANGER REMAINS. Down at Black Canyon gorge in the Colorado River the Interior Department is preparing to build the largest dam in the world. It is ta be financed by the Government ostensibly because it in- volves flood control for Imperial Valley. i Congress was induced to authorize an appropriation of $165,000,000 on the plea that the people of that locality were in danger of having their homes ’ | swept away. In spite of the fact that this is to be the largest dam in the world; the Colo- ‘\rado River board of engineers. and geologists has recommended to Secre- |tary Wilbur that its height be increased ‘| 25 feet over the former specifications in order to provide adequate flood control. So much of the proposed storage capacity has been preempted for the development of power that: unless the dam is raised 25 feet Imperial Valley will still be in danger of inundation. ~ “Tt is obvious,” the board reports, “that a reservoir can not be used to develop a stated amount of power and at the same time adequately regulate fidods unless, after setting aside the storage required for the power, there remains sufficient storage for flood con- | trol.” It was found that in the event of a great flood ‘such as swept down the canyon in 1884 it would be neces- sary to send as much as 160,000 second- feet of water down the valley in order to prevent the dam from being over- topped. The board recommends that the capacity for storage of flood waters be virtually doubled. Flood control, which is the only ex- euse for construction .of this gigantic project with Federal money,.is being sacrificed to the development of power. The original purpose of the dam has been all but forgotten in the clamor to secure cheap electric’ current at the Government’s expense. The irony of the situation must be rather poignant down in Imperial Valley. —_—_—_—_ ON THE RAPIDAN. It was understood that President Hoover built his camp on the Rapidan so as to have a place where he could “get away from it all.” The cabins were located far from the road and a Marine guard was placed to keep out the curi- ous. But no sooner had the President taken possession of his retreat than guests began to arrive. On one week- end it would:be a Cabinet officer intent fon discussing the public b _On another it would be a publisher sum- moned to acquaint the President with the state of the public mind. Again it would be a foreign dignitary who came to sit on a log and settle the affairs of the world. The “place in which to get away from it all’ became a place for concentrated attack upon affairs of state. Now it bids fair to become a permanent “deputy capital.” Secretaries Wilbur and Hyde and At- torney General Mitchell have obtained wooded plots on the Rapidan about two miles below the President’s camp, where they will erect log lodges. These are not to be places where they can “get away from it all,”’ but places where they can live the simple life while they con- fer with the President. The pine boughs will rustle in the winds over their cottages. The trout will leap in the Rapidan. But there will be some- thing more than communion with na- ture and angling for piscatorial beau- ties. ‘There will be work to be done and conferences to attend. Presiden- tial City, if so it is named, will hum with activity. It is too bad that the banks of t ‘Rapidan are to be desecrated in this fashion. The woods are made for leisure. The streams are meant for fishing. The President should have been permitted to retain the privacy of his retreat. He deserves better than vacation week-ends consecrated to the public business. A BEDLAM AT ARLINGTON. The House of Representatives can render good service to common sense by killing off the bill which proposes to make the District of Columbia tax- payers go into debt for a “munieipal airport” at the edge of Arlington Na- tional Cemetery and bestriding the Washington Memorial Highway. A more unsuitable place for an airport would be impossible to find; and neither private nor public money should be per- mitted to establish a flying field there. The American Legion enters a pro- test against the desecration of Arling- ton by subjecting it to the noise, con- fusion and danger attendant upon con- tinual airplane operations. The Na- tion’s hallowed spot, set apart for eter- nal repose, is now bombarded by the roarings and sputterings of sightseeing and sporting airplanes. The amphi- theater and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier are raided hourly, while funeral services are frequently interrupted by | eS the swoopings and roarings of aerial joyriders. The desecration of Arling- ton is a public reproach that calls for the removal of flying fields from that Vicinity. The Washington . Memorial Highway, from Arlington Bridge to Mount Vernon, should be kept free from the nuisance and'danger resulting from air, operations near by and overhead. Private enterprise, and not taxpayers’ money, should provide an airport for Washington, if one is necessary. Un- less an airport is commercially success- ful it has no excuse for existence. The taxpayers are not demanding an airport as a municipal enterprise. They are not willing to be saddled with debt for the sake of providing conveniences to sport- ing fliers. All mail and courier busi- ness by air can be accommodated at Bolling Field and the Naval Air Station. Private pleasure flying should be looked after by private interests, and no field ® should be placed where it would be- come a public nuisance, as is the field adjacent to Arlington. AMERICAN TRADE ROUTES. The merchant marine act in support of American-owned ships is bearing fruit. Sailing from New York yester- day on her maiden voyage the new Grace liner Santa Clara is scheduled to arrive at the Panama Canal in five days, at Callao in nine days, and at Valparaiso in sixteen days, as against six, twelve and twenty-one days, under the old schedule. This quickened intercourse with the other Americas is the result of the new national shipping policy. The mail con- tract and’construction loan provisions of the Jones-White merchant marine act of 1928 is at last giving American ship- ping an equality of opportunity. Con- gress has provided the means of equaliz- ing the competitive disadvantages and assuring the rebirth of the American merchant marine. The reduction of the voyage time to Valparaiso by five days is a notable ac- complishment. It is not generally real- ized that Valparaiso is almost directly south of Washington. Closer neighbor- | hood is a nééd of the Americas, and this. new fast service, with sailings every fortnight, should serve that need, Eighty ears ago when the founda- tions of the Grace Line were laid on the west coast of South America, the-most traveled route was around the Horn by clipper ships. When the Panama Rail- road was built there began some tran- shipment south from the Isthmus, but windjammers remained the chief car- riers. Steamers began to navigate the | Straits of Magellan, but the way was too long for trade with North America. Then, came the Panama Canal, render- ing more accessible the opportunities for trade between the United States and sister republics to the south. American enterprise and capital have from the time of the Panama Canal. sought to make the most of the mutual advan- tages offered, and the present policy of Congress now insures rapid. develop- ment of these advantages. SOVIET FOMENTS WAR. Frequent . dispatches from Moscow reveal that Soviet Russia is preparing for war.. One reason for the feverish haste in organizing the peasants into collective units is to be prepared for the war that Soviet leaders are predicting. Industry is being established in a way that will make its output available for war. The Soviet press is endeavoring to arouse nationalistic feelings in the Russian people, so that they will be ready when the time comes “to defend the revolution.” : ; The Communist leaders are trying to create the impression that the Soviet Union is in danger of armed attack by the capitalistic nations. They tell the peasants who have been forced into collectivization and the workmen who have become slaves of the state in the industrial sections that Russia is on the verge of becoming such a powerful factor in the field of international trade that the rest of the world is certain to make war against the Soviet to destroy its competition. They picture the con- flict as a certainty, leaving the time of its commencement only open to ques- tion. This argument is calculated to make the peasants fall in line with the com- munistic program. It carries a subtle implication that the Bolshevist program is so successful that all other economic systems will be destroyed by it unless the nations of the world unite against Russia. Outside of Russia most of this propaganda is discounted as a psycho- logical potion which the Belshevist e \ ‘y respectively, | * . 7 2 heats, SS an oo < ws Bet emt ercan GAME oF Govern Oc 4p LFW It Won’t Be Long Now Until the States Are Stripped of Everything. dictators have prepared for disgruntled peasants. eas Nevertheless the danger of Russia becoming involved in a foreign war is by no méans remote. The Communist regime is dedicated to the principle of world revolution and it is bending its best efforts toward that objective. The cause of this conflict will not be the success of the communistic system, but the vicious propaganda which Moscow is disseminating throughout the world. Communistic propaganda has already brought the Soviet Union to the verge of war with China. The grievance which caused China to expel the Soviet agents has not been removed. Reports indicate that Red propaganda has in- creased in China and is making great headway among the masses. A com- munistic army of 60,000 Chinese, paid in Russian currency, is ravaging Kiangsi Province. It is stated that nearly 2,000 have been massacred and many towns have been looted, in spite of the fact that the population is near starvation. Internal dissension prevents the Na- tionalist government from dealing ef- fectively with this situation. If China had a strong central government it would, no doubt, make war upon the enemy that is bringing if so much distress. But the central government is scarcely able to maintain itself against rival war lords, and is helpless before the Soviet propagandists. Communism is likewise being carried into Palestine and Imdia. Wherever weakness in a political system appears, the agents of bolshevism are on hand with their subversive doctrines., Seeds of unrest and revolution are being planted throughout the world. The project of world revolution is making the Soviet regime an enemy of every nation. It is not surprising that the Communists are preparing for war. They would not dare to encourage re- volt in other nations and thereby in- vite reprisals without making military preparations at home. If war comes upon the Russian people it will not be because of economic competition, as the peasants are being told, but because the Soviet dictators may force other na- tions to defend themselves. FUTURE TRAFFIC. Representative Elliott’s prediction as to Washington’s future comes at a time when the National Capital Park and Planning Commission is considering employment of an expert in transit problems. Since the Government is en- gaged in a gigantic building program in Washington, provisions’: made now largely the mobility of traffic for many years to come. While building “the most beautiful Capital in the world” it ris well to be eertaiti that adequate pro- vision is made for future traffic. Mr. Elliott, who is chairman of the House committee on public buildings and grounds, foresees a population of 1,500,000 for Washington by 1980. His estimate is conservative, in view of the rapid growth of the Capital in recent years. This means that the city must be prepared for a 100 per cent increase in traffic during that time. A sstill greater increase is probable because of the growing popularity of Washington as a tourist center. As its beautifica- tion progresses and the Federal City becomes better known as a center of art, culture and splendid architecture, this traffic is certain to be stimulated. Washington should begin now to pre- pare for it. It is most fortunate that the impor- tant section of the city between Penn- sylvania avenue and the Mall is being rebuilt in an age when traffic has been motorized and the needs of the future can be estimated with some degree of accuracy. This area ig destined to be- come one of the most attractive sections of the city. Every tourist will drive through it, and thousands of Govern- ment workers will use its streets every day. Their number will increase from year to year. Only far-visioned plan- ning will avoid serious traffic conges- tion in the Triangle. 2 If there is any question as to the adequacy of plans for transit to and from this proposed group of Govern- ment structures, by all means let the commission employ an expert who can point out the deficiencies in advance. Every angle of the traffic and parking problems should be carefully considered with a view to future needs before it is too late. RAIL MERGER PROBLEMS. The Senate interstate commerce committee has concluded hearings on the Couzens resolution to suspend all railroad consolidations until Congress has enacted additional regulatory legis- lation, and will meet early in the week to take action on the two modification proposals that have been placed before it. One modification would suspend consolidations which now are exempted from the antitrust laws, as well as make holding company joint control illegal. The other would prohibit only consoli- dations effected through holding com- pany stock pooling. Hearings on the Couzens resolution have been characterized :by acrimonious debate. It developed that the Inter- for traffic facilities will _ determine state Commerce Commission itself was divided as to the desirability of halting all merger movements at this time, and, the railroads, of course, opposed such drastic prohibition.. But no answer was. given to the question implied ini the in- troduction of the Couzens measure. The railroads having found a way to circumvent the law, what weapon is to be placed in the hands of the Interstate Commerce Commission .to prevent the remaking of the railway map by the roads themselves, instead of under con- trol of duly constituted public author- ity ? The railroads must be regulated and controlled by the Government. When the Interstate Commerce Commission was created for this purpose and, for that matter, when the railroad act of 1920 became law, no one foresaw the rise of the holding company. Since 1920 the commission has been laboring to @ffect the consolidation of the car- riers’ into better balanced systems, while certain of the roads, through holding companies, have gone calmly about effecting consolidations that have not always been in harmony with the commission plan. Daniel Willard, president of the Bal- timore and Ohio, opposed the Couzens resolution on the ground that it would “freeze” the present situation. Un- doubtedly, this is a serious fault in the proposition. On the other hand, how- ever, the holding companies themselves threaten to “freeze” the situation or, at least, to thwart the attempts of the commission to remake the railway map. If there were any assurance that Con- gress would enact new regulatory legis- lation at an early date, there would be no question as to the advisability of halting the merger movement for the time being. But Congress probably will spend years considering the problem. Legislation is needed. If the Couzens resolution does not meet the need, Con- gress will have to find another means of- meeting the challenge of} the holding company. “ : The lobby committee is carefully pre« serving the names of dry-voting, wet- ‘drinking congressmen from the public, Another case of congressional im- munity.

ASHINGTON women will turn W their thoughts from the na- tional conventions, which have been the order of each day for the last month, to the many annual meet- ings and conferences of the ldcal clubs. As so many of the loca! or- ganization leaders are also leaders in the national organizations, the guests of honor and those making reports ©n local work will often be women who hold national and even interna- tional offices in their organizations. The thirty-sixth annual meeting of the District of Columbia Federation of Women's Clubs will be held May 8 and 9 at the Roosevelt Hotel. Re- ports will be made by the women |i whp have been leading the federation work for civic betterment and educa- tional projects diiring the last year. Mrs. Edgar B. Meritt, the president, wil} make her annual report, which ‘will show that the women of the Dis- |{ trict of Columbia, although voteless still keep pace with the work being done by women al] over the country. @ annual breakfast of the Politi- eal Study Club, which is always an important event locally, as many of the members are women of impor- tance in the club, professional, busi- mess and social as well as the political world. This breakfast will be held in the ballroom of the Mayflower Hotel May 24. Today the thoughts of the women's Organization will turn to Louisville, Ky.. where the tenth anniversary con- vention of the National League of Wamen Voters will convene for a Beven-day session. This event is of Special importance this year, for it is the tenth anniversary of woman suf- frage and is the tenth birthday of the league. The women who worked for woman suffrage will be the special Guests of honor of the convention. Washington women will be particu- darly interested in the report to be made on Thursday afternoon an- mouncing the names of the women nominated by the various States for service for a place on the national roll of honor. The District of Co- lumpia women have nominated Mrs. Ellen Spencer Mussey, leader in im- proving the legal status of women and founder of the Washington College of Law. Mrs. Mussey is the only Dis- trict nominee. With the next national election year but three years off the adoption of & new study and legislative pro- Gram for the next two years will be one; of the convention's important de- cision. The object of this study pro- gram is to prepare the women to vote intelligently for President and Vice President of the United States and for all the other national and local of- ficials. The legislative program of the league will be outlined as guide to the work the women are to do for the next two years nationally and locally. As many of the measures in the in- terest of women and children for which the league has been working have not been passed by national and State legislatures the program will be much the same as it has been with provision for increased activity along certain lines. Committee conferences on tariff, Juvenile delinquency, unem- ployment, the legal status of women and child labor laws will be held. The election of president, five vice Presidents, secretary and treasurer. and seven directors will take place on Friday. The result of this election will be awaited with interest by suf- frage groups in every State. | Curley Club Mies Maude Norton, chairman of the welfare committee of the Curley Club, entertained the members of the executive committee at her home, 152 R street northeast, Wednesday evening, at which time arrangements were completed for the annual mass of the Curley Club, which will be held eat 8 a. m.

Shrine Notes After a successful military campaign the Roman Senate of old would pro- claim a “triumph,” on which occasion the commanding general was honored with a festival, and frequently to per- petuate his achievements the grate- ful nation would erect a triumphal arch. Although modified in expres- sion, that age-old sentiment still lives, and even in such an organization as the Mystic Shrine can be found man- ifestations akin to a triumphal arch. Almas Temple has not been conduct- _ing a war of conquest or aggression, but its leaders have long been con- ducting a vigorous campaign to give to Shrinedom in the National Capital a monument of distinction to serve aS a home to the 5,000 Shriners in this jurisdiction. The efforts of years were made manifest last Monday when the new clubhouse was dedicated. In the absence of Imperial Potentate Leo V. Youngworth the honor of serving as his representative in the ceremony of dedication was entrusted to Leonard P. Steuart, second ceremonial master of the Imperial Council and a past potentate of Almas Temple. James C. Hoyle, potentate of Almas Temple, acted as deputy. The elective officers of Almas Temple were assigned the positions of imperial officers corre- sponding to the rank held divan as follows: Robert 8S. Regar, im- perial chief rabban; J. T. Prendergast, imperial assistant rabban; Edward D. Anderson, imperial high priest and | prophet; William C. Miller, imperial | Oriental guide; Frank E. Ghiselll, im- perial treasurer, and. fF. Lawrence Walker, imperial recorder. The ceremony was held at 4:30 o’clock and the large crowd present filled the auditorium on the main floor. James A.

Following the dedicatory exercises the new clubhouse was thrown open Leonard P. Steuart and James.C. Hoyle christened the new ove alleys, of which there are six, by roliimg a game.of duckpins. Potentate Hoyle, however, was awed by the impressive score of 114 rolled by Imperial Second Ceremonial Mas- ter Steuart and did not finish his score. In the evening from 7 to 12 o'clock the ladies were admitted and guided by members of the reception commit- tee from roof garden to basement. Re- freshments were served and an in- formal dance was held in the audi- torium, music for the occasion being furnished by the Almas Military Band, led by Frederick Wilken, jr., director. The uniformed bodies of Almas Temple crowded a number of inter- esting eventé into their activities dur- ing the past week, all held in the new club home, On Monday, April 22, a dance; Wednesday, an evening of en- tertainment by the Dramatic Club of Job's Daughters; Thursday, a card party was held in the ball room, and last night concluded the week with a dance. With the clubhouse dedication as the outstanding ¢vent of the year in the background Potentate Hoyle is now bending his efforts toward mak- ing the first ceremonial on June 5 to be held in the new Shrine headquar- ters a success. Applications for this class must be filed with the recorder not later than Saturday, May 31. All novices initiated on June 5 will be eligible to make the pilgrimage to the Imperial Council session to be held at Toronto on June 10, 11 and 12. University Women A walk today.

Washington Goes “Garden Minded” In the Spring Al Fresco Fetes Are Planned When, or Hf, Warm Weather Comes; Notables “Sign Up” for Pilgrimage to Famous Mary- land and Virginia Estates. By JEAN ELIOT. ASHINGTON has gone “garden mind- W ed”’ Everybody who has a patch of ground is with a vengeance these days. busy digging in it, preparations are being made for garden parties—if ever winter ceases to linger in the lap of spring—and scores, nay hundreds, of Washingtonians are “signing up,’ with delegations from many other cities, to make the pilgrimage to the historic gardens of Virginia, which has be- come an established feature of the .spring season. This year, moreover, there will be oppor- tunity to view many of the loveliest gardens in nearby Maryland. “Garden Week’’ in Vir- ginia will open tomorrow, continuing through Saturday and the famous gardens of Mary- land estates will be on view on the first three days of the following week—May 4, 5 and 6, Mrs. Claude Swanson will make the grand tour by motor with a group.of guests; and others from Washington planning this pleasant pilgrimage are Mr. F. Trubee Davi- son, Assistant Secretary of War for Aviation, and Mrs. Davison, Mr. and Mrs. Adolph Cas- par Miller, Mr. and Mrs..Frederic A. Delano. and Mr. and Mrs. Duncan Phillips. Stratford, where Robert E, Leé was born, and which was the home of two signers of the Declaration of Independence, will be a special center of attraction this year and proceeds from garden week will be devoted to the restoration of its fine old gardens. Groups of distinguished Virginia women will be hostesses at Stratford each day. ‘Tomor- row Miss Charlotte Haxall Noland, of Fox- croft, will receive, with twelve of her honor girls at Foxcroft School. Members of the Lee family, including Mrs. H. Rozier Dulany, Mrs. Hanson Ely and Mrs. Hunter De Butts, will receive on Wednesday, and on Friday— Washington Day——the hostesses will be Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, Mrs. William Corcoran Eustis and Mrs. Cary T. Grayson. Although all three are residents of Washington, each has a Virginia background. Mrs. Grayson, by the way, is in charge of arrangements for the pilgrimage from Wash- ington. For weeks she has maintained head- quarters at the Mayflower and informatioa may be obtained there—at the Social Bureau —as to.the gardens which are to be on view and the most convenient routes through Maryland and Virginia. ~ * ¢« ¢ ® ATLANDS, Mrs, Eustis’ beautiful coun- try home near Leesburg, is one of the ‘ fine estates which will be opem to‘the public through the week and another nearby is Oak Hill, once the home of James Monroe.

Estates in the Shenandoah Valley and around Richmond, Charlottesville, Lynch- burg, Fredericksburg, Petersburg, Staunton, Norfolk and a score of other picturesque Vir- ginia towns may be visited, as well as the fine old places on the James River: Shirley, Upper and Lower Brandon, Westover and the rest. Westover was once the home of “fair Evelyn Byrd,” whese glamorous his- tory is written into the ancestral chronicles of: Rear Admiral Richard Evelyn’ Byrd, former Gov. Harry Byrd of Virginia, and their brother Thomas Byrd, familiarly known to Virginians as “Tom, Dick and Harry.” The place now belongs to Mr. and Mrs. Rich- ard Crane, many of whose friends in Wash- ington are planning to visit Westover in the course of motor trips through Virginia. The Cranes were residents of the Capital for a number of years when Mr. Crane, a son of Mr. Charles R. Crane, some time Minister to China, had a State Department post before going to Czechoslovakia as our first minister to the ipfant republic. The gardens of Gunston Hall, originally the home of George Mason, author of the Virginia bill of rights, which Mr. Louis Her- tle, the present owner, and the late Mrs. Hertle restored so lovingly, will be open to the public, as will Rippon Lodge, built be- fore Mount Vernon and now the property of Mr. and Mrs. Wade H. Ellis, and many of the historic places in and near Alexandria. Mr.’ and Mrs. Ellis left town yesterday for Rippon Lodge, where they will remain through this week to personally greet visitors to their garden. Among the Maryland gardens which may be visited are those of Montpelier, near Laurel, which has a long and interesting h'a- tory and which Mr. and Mrs. Breckinridge Long have restored in the most authentie ‘to make to the fund. and delightful fashion; - of - Belmont, Baltimore, near where Mr. and Mrs. Howard Bruce will be hosts; of other fine places nesr Baltimore and of many of-the estates on the Eastern Shore, among them Hope House and Widehall. The latter is the home of Mr. and Mrs. Wilbur Hubbard, who spend part of each winter in Washington. ‘Millions of people,” to quote one of the somewhat harassed sponsors of the pilgrim- age—will head for Richmond in the early days of this week, planning to go thence te the James River plantation belt, with quaint Yorktown and Williamsburg as important ob- jectives, and on to Charlottesville to visit Monticello, the University of Virginia and such beautiful estates as Mirador, Morven, Tallwood and Enniscorthy. But an alternate route is suggested, which may make it pos- sible to avoid the traffic. This involves visiting Oatlands, and the other estates in Loudoun County first, then heading for Winchester and Lees- burg and on through the Shenandoah Valley to Staunton—Woodrow Wilson’s birthplace— and thence down to Tidewater, Va., if the time permits. Oak Hill - 7. . . Rearetes of the movement to restore Stratford, Mrs. William Corcoran Eustis reports that she has a contribution of $6,390 It will be remembered that, with Mrs. Woodrow Wilson and other distinguished Washington women as mem- bers of the committee, she had arranged to open her house for a concert, featuring Miss Grace Moore, of the Metropolitan Opera, and Mr. Osear Seagle, proceeds from which were to go to the foundation. The concert was canceled because of the of former President Taft. But many of those who had bought tickets made a contribution iliness and death = of the purchase price, the aggregate amount- ing to $1,195, and some $5,195 was received in voluntary contributions.

Tiaras were conspicuous by their absence and, save for pearls, few gems were worn except in glittering pendant ear- rings which seem to be growing in popu- larity.

And Wednesday, Thursday and Friday were given over to the opera and its attendant entertaining. For the first time in its history grand opera in Washington might be compared, from the point of view of the spectacle presented, to grand opera in New York—-or in London or Paris. In truth memories of the grand escalier of the Paris Opera were recalled in the picture presented between the acts, ~hen women in the smartest of springtime gowns and cloaks and distinguished men in evening that most of those displayed were ‘vintage coronets, mever reset in a dozen generations and practically nevér cleaned.” This visit of the Metropolitan Opera may be written down as a tremendous success from every point of view. It must have been successful financially, for the great house was well filled even for the matinee, when “Traviata’’ was presented. ‘“‘Andrea Che- nier,” new to Washington, and an enchanting opera, drew even better, and the house waa sold out for ‘“‘La Boheme,” on the opening night..

The importance of the si ie $§ =" s ’ > shorter ones do with the gauntlet short gloves or even the six-button ones. : Date to Romantic Times.» , The sheért puffed sleeve belongs to the age of romance as do the pannier- like effects on thé hips and the pep-. lume and the short ruffled jackets to be worn with quite as beruffied skirts. While the clever woman will s¢2 that her clothes have nothing of the “too much” appearance of too many frills and furbelows, few will be abie to resist the cascade-like scarfs whica Come.from one shoulder in the back and in beauty and with. grace in tHe back of anh evening dress or just escape the fioor for afternoon wear or dinner wear. One bride had her lustrous satin dress cut with a princesag effect in front but with a Watteau pleat in the back from under which a. wide lace train swept. To carry out the effect the bridal head dress was & fitted lace cap with only a shoulder veil of tulle. To be as modern as she could, the sleeves were of the fashion of yesteryear, short puffed ones of the lace of the train, The, distance ‘between the ‘fash- jopable and the unfashionable in evening dresses ig perhaps only an}. inch or two in reality but miles as . seen through the spy glasses of Mme. Modish, For those who like the nat- ural waistline a lower point may be adopted. Woe, indeed, to the seeker after a fashionable appearance if she places ber waistline really low. The skirt of an evening gown may be above the ankle at some points ofr even to what we used to call shoe- top length. But the woman on gir! who would wear a formal dress after 6 o'clock shorter than this has a piti- ful attenuated appearance, as far as her dress goes, at any rate. Just as we know that the evening dress must be really long we turn to regard with something akin to pity the very occasional wearer among the morning shoppers of a long dress , or one with points coming well down to the ankles under her coat. The up-to-date follower of the fashions di do this: for a short while, but this fashion only lasted a few weeks and is among the gone and forgotten. Dressing More Sensibly. The fact of the matter is, that the women of today, especially our Amer- women, are dressing more sensi- bly and becomingly than they have for a humber of yeats—not having to borrow the extreme skirt of the little schoolgirl or the mannish attire of their brother. The summer clothes are to fit well into the picture of life in the city and the country and at the summer resorts... They are to be becoming and comfortable. Even the most ardent devotee of ‘the plainness of attire wearled somewhat of the mediocre plainness of some of the clothes women have been wearing up to the last few months. The flares and the tailored flounces pleats, add so much to the feminine note of the simplest costume. Tiny bows are being added to slip-. rs and buckles long unworn have mn searched for and polished up to make the foot wear of the day fem- inine and up-to-date. The ‘cut-and-dried. rule for hosiery has also been abolished under the new order of things. Flesh and nude and the various shades of dust and Tose taupe have given way except for g wear with dark dresses to hosiery:that matches the slippers or the dress. Mrs. Adams Wears Grayish Blue.

Mrs. Joseph E. Bird was seen at one f — a Dare’s Weekly The “Material” Fashion Letter Story PLD Paris, April 26. O BE sure, I have given you & aketchy idea of the materials worn where and when this spring and summer, but it occurs to me that a resume of things as they are in the mode of materials would not be out of order. In town. . . tweeds, usually mixed tweeds, light: weight and pliable to the almost inevitable - incrustation; soft, loosely woven woolens, and wool voiles, are the materials being used in sul nsembles and dresses for walk- ing, 10r shopping and for business. And out of town, at the country club and for approaching summer wear, shantung is most popular and fashionable, and there are both the silk and the cotton versions, the lat- ter called ‘“‘tussor,” some linens, and soft flannel, usually white or plain colors. Suits in General. Suits of the tailleur type are made of tweed or light wool. But these dis- tinctly morning suits for s wear have a time and place, and when their “hour” has struck—soon after lunch, if not just before—they give Way to the more dressy tailleurs. Afternoon suits were never more modish and depend for their elabor- ateness mn soft moires, crepe de chine and crepe marocain, heavy geor- gettes, and now and then taffeta. Most frequently seen are the silk voiles and georgettes, in black and navy blue. Afternoon Frocks. Delightful light weight woolen dresses appear both In town and out. There is usually a small in the material, oftener than not a tiny checked or dotted design that blurs into the semblance of « shaded color. And perhaps because the wools are so smart, their design is woven oF printed’ onto a silk for afternoon dresses, sometimes to go with & matching wool coat, sometimes for no other reason than just that they are chic enough to have imitated the wool take their in the mode. Many are printed, and more are dn plain colors. For Evening. Evening frocks must be ele- gant, and, needless to say at this point, long, and therefore A great many more yards of material of crepes, much chiffon, sometimes com- bined with lace and sometimes* flower printed or shadowy, and some satin, especially cire. There are enough palllette, or scaly materials shown to make them worthy of mention, but these, and also lames, are fewer and farther be- tween, as it were, than the other materials I have told you about for everring. As for the wraps, they are often of the same material as the dresses, and when not, are apt to be of sof sheer velvet, or lame. And very often satin. Silk Voile in the New Mode, Exquisitely fine and dainty batiste ig sponsored by most of the cou- turiers for blouses, these batistes out- numbering the silks by a good many. This material is so particularly suited to beautiful handwork, There are blouses of very flat beaded material, or of paillettes in leather or crystal. And there is a new woolen material used for blouses that are really sleeveless sweaters, and for sport dresses, with its design woven in such a Way as to give the appearance of being stuffed. For instance, on 4 beige background there is a “raised” design of red _ strawberries. The berries are thick-looking as though you could pick them right off the ma- terial One of the most important new ma is a silk voile which is fast usurping the place of crepe georgette. It has a mat surface, is soft like georgette ahd more durable. it comes im all the so-called “wanted” shades.

Mrs. Barnett also has a dress of silver cloth made very long in princess effect. Much Matching Shopping. Since the slippers match the dress or the predominating color in all dresses for afternoon and evening. if they are made of lace or chiffon espe- clally, and the stockings must match the slippers, there is much shopping about matching tones. After the woman of fashion finds herself all |’ dressed with her hat and slippers and trose matching, she will hesitate a long time about what gloves she will wear and what bag she will carry. It is prebably to solve this problem that the glove makers have advanced a new type of glove this spring, made Of the gros-grained silk of the slippers or of linen. The charm of the crepe de chine slipper match- ing the dress has brought forward the crepe de chine glove. In a few rare of the ultra modish, mitts have n revived. It is, however, only the type of woman or girl who can wear her clothes so that she will look smart and up-to-date and yet as if she has stepped from ‘an old-fashioned pic- ture book, who can afford to wear mitte. or, in fact, the type of dress that goes with mitts. In keeping with the countless de- tails of the present mode the hats have taken on themselves many in- tricacies of trimming, although it must be fiat and an integral part cf the hat itself and hever a wreath of roses or flowers slung carelessly about / the crown. Even some of the tailored hats, however, have a white leather or col- dred leather gardenia tucked under the brim at the side. The transpar- ént hats fof wear with afternoon and dinner dresses nay have and do have, in fact, a flat garland of roses sewed well down on, the brim. The picture hats heve turned up in the back brims often caught with ribbon that falls in long or short streamers down the back. Washington likes te dine at roof gardens and quaint tea houses in the warm weather. Perhaps that is the reason that every summer evening~ dress seems to have a wrap and 4 hat of some kind to be worn with It. — ee ee Capital Horse Show Features May Program ‘Society Reserves Boxes for Event to Be Held at Bradley Farms.

Your accessories must be in some neutral or basic color, such as black, beige or navy.blue; and as your coat usually represents the greatest ex- penditure, it ls well tO have the ac- cessories related to it. Dresses must, of course, be considered, but in spring and summer, print frocks prove amenable to various color schemes 30 that your coat and the other details will harmonize or match. In the center of this page we have sketched two groups of accessofies which contain several suggestions. At the left is a hat of picot luciole, a soft drapable straw that lends itself to intricate manipulation with emi- nent success.

Your stockings this season should carry on the darker trend which you have seen this last winter, but, of course, are a bit lighter. The big point is to avoid the reddish sunburn. tones of last spring and summer, a cool beige tanned tone being correct this season. Costauming the Occasion. Having selected the color scpeme on which you are going to work out your wardrobe, the next thing to do is to decide what types of cos- tumes your business and social life wil] require. A coat. of course, ani it should be one that you can wear for both dressed up and informal times.

A Two-lime Chiffon Frock FTEN the most formal parties O of spring and summer eve- nings have such a delightfully casual spirit that planning the eve- ning wardrobe for these occasions need not be so exacting a problem as it is in winter. Printed chiffons, the very essence of summertime, can be formal at one minute and informal the next, and lace has the same chameleon character. The vogue for matching jackets adds to the elasticity of a costume, for with its jacket and a wide- brimmed hat it is the hit of the for- mal afternoon party, while jacketless and hatless, it assumes the most queenly evening airs. Dress and Wrap Ensemble. The wardrobe which must be 4s- sembled with an eye to the econ- ‘omics of budgeting, the solution of the evening problem lies best in the dress which has an accompanying wrap. Often such a costume has more elegance in itself than a single dress, as it must be more carefully designed; and certainly it is better economy to pay a bit more for a cos- tume than to purchase several dresses for those occasions. Dress Sketched. Just to the left we have. pictured a frock which answers these require- ments to a T. The material is a chiffon printed in a delicately col-, ored flower patterning. The dress is sleeveless, with a rounded. shoulder yoke of plain chiffon which tones in with the print ground color. Pitted at the waist by rows of tuckipg, the skirt has four sections set on in a scalloped line; the two side sections have generous circular flares and are a bit longer than the center sections. The jacket combines the effect of a scarf and a cape in a very noyel manner, for the dipping cape is brought up onto the shoulders like a yoke and the ends formed into a soft scarf tie. A narrow band of chiffon set onto the edge of the cape sleeves and thus gives them the ap- pearance of old-fashioned mitts. Animal Cargo Seasick.

Homespun looking tweeds, fuzzy basket weaves, the lacey jerseys and even flannel all came in for their share of attention and we need hardly point out that when Chanel con- éentrates on the woolen sports frock for “spectator sports,” she achieves a combination of smartness, practicality and youthfulness that is Hard to beat. We're inclined to Obelieve that Chanel must have concentrated quite a bit on the model which we are discussing here. For she has designed a frock that may a-sporting go, if that is the day’s program, that can adopt a town aspect, if that be your mood and that is withal a frock which is thoroughly feminine despite the mas- culine aspect of its suspendered shoulder straps. The material which Chanel select- ed was a red and white finely striped knit woolen,.and by varying the di- rection in which the stripes ran, she has contrived to give extra emphasis to the jaunty shoulder capelets, the Slim up-and-down line which the loose buttoned straps give and the competent cut -of the skirt with its three side pleats neatly stitched down. almost to the Knees.

They burn it in little lamps made from coconut shells, rub it on their bodies when ili, or even when well, and make their Diack hair behave, also more brilliant, by its application to the scalp. The liquid of the nut is water and milk to the native, and the sap of the tree is wine and “white mule.” The mp makes a sort of mild wine called toddy, and by fermentation it can be turned into the intoxicating drink known as ar- rack.

ee PARR MAY BE ABMBONED MAY MOVE TO QUANTICO a Final decision on the bill to pro- vide for construction at the Marine Corps post at Parris Island has been deferréd by the House Naval affairs committee until its mext executive session. Hearings were conaucted an the bil] Monday, during the course of which Representative Britten, chairman, expressed the opinion that it might be advisable to.move the post to Quantico. The bill, introduced by Represen- tative Hare, would vide for the construction of buildings at @ total cost of $1,649,000. Acting Secretary of the Navy Jahncke recommended ‘against the bill at this time, saying ‘that there are other construction projects which the Navy considers of the Parris Island Marine Barracks, told the committee that the tem- porary buildings there are in such 4 state of deterioration that it would be very advisable to replace them. Photographs of the ‘were shown, and, after looking at them Representative Britten asked if the Marine had ever considered moving the post to a more attractive location. “Parris Island,” Mr. Britten said, was originally designed as a prison, and these photographs show if to be @ most unattractive place. is in- accessable and from all accounts I have heard, a very unpopular place. My idea is, if we are to spend a million and a half dollars in new construction, we should pick out a better location.” Mr. Britten then advanced the idea of moving the post to Quantico, and stated that he thought the commit- tee should make a visit to Parris Is- Jand to look over the situation be- fore authorizing any new construc- tion there. Representative Vinson disagreed with the chairman, saying that “The reason Parris Island is not so beauti- ful is because we have never spent any money on it.. Quantico was un- attractive until we appropriated money to fix it up.” Members of the committee asked Brig. Gen. Hugh Matthews, quarter- master general of the Marine Corps, whether, if the Marine were ‘allotted the sum provided for fm the bill to spend as they see fit, they would use it at Parris Island. He re- plied that they would not, as they nsidered the need for new con- struction at Quantico more urgent. War Mothers The American Wer Mothers and the Congressional Club are busy arrang- ing a most notable program for the annual Mother’s Day ceremonies at Arlington Amphitheater to be held in the afternoon of May 11. The cere- monies will begin promptly at 2 o’clock« War Mothers will gather from many States to participate in the solemn and impressive ceremonies and the patriotic organizations of the Nation’s Capital will cooperate.

Ranking officials of the Army and Navy and Congress, as well as mem- bers of the American War Mothers and the Congressional Club, will con- tribute to the patriotic program. It is significant and beautiful that the day set apart by Congress as Mother’s Day should be selected by the American War Mothers as their day for paying tribute to America’s ‘Unknown Soldier son who represents the entire unknown dead of the World War as he sleeps in the shadow of the Capital of the Nation, which he died to defend. | Republican Women The League of Republican Women has an unusually delightful program to present to its members for the month of May.

Fine Paintings On Exhibition At Arts Club F Notable Etchings Shown at Dunthorne and Veerhoff. By ADA RAINEY. Tt exhibitions at the Arts Club , this week are of much interest by reason of the number of artists exhibiting and the variety of the work shown., First in interest and importance is the work of Mary G. ey, who is a member of the club. The paintings, mostly of 2 ‘Jd A 4 a P,*, - ~ oe —e xs meena Up ae Le Ae . : eee BSS er, ‘ | | | i i | j i i ’ ; Poértu- | guese and Spanish subjects, are han- | dled Bional way. “Portuguese Hills” and “In the Sierra de Guardarrama” are finely balanced compositions expressed with bigness. Whatever Miss Riley has to say is always of interest and importance, and her paintings have @ way of improving upon acquaint- ance. Her still life and “Peonies and Delphinium” are delightful in color and well organized. There is a fine third dimensional quality in “Ver- Mont-Autumn” and in “New England Village.” There are fine possibilities jin store for Miss Riley as she con- Zinues to grow in her art. In the large gallery are the paint- ings by Gladys Brannigan and Alethea Hill Platt, both of New York. There is harmony in the paintings of these two artists; they hang well together. ‘The paintings of the former are more modern and up to date than the lIat- ter, which are slightly old-fashioned | tone. Two “Decorations” by Miss Brarmni- fan are quaint and attractive. Their ‘color is harmonious. “In French ‘Canada” is rich and full in color and “Heather in County Mayo” is sone of the most satisfactory of all canvases in the exhibition. Miss Brannigan is growing in strength and power of managing her color and “her masses. Each time that she shows here in Washington a deepen- ing and greater power in her work to be seen. She studied at the ‘Corcoran School of Art and lived here ‘for some years before her marriage. ‘Since then she has lived in New York. She has painted in Ireland and her exhibitions of her Irish scenes have ‘met with much success. _ The paintings by Miss Platt, who is very well known for her English cottage scenes, are attractive but more in the suave English style and in ‘harmony with the water colors that were in favor some years ago. There is still charm in her Devonshire scenes, but one wishes they were a little more of landscape or a little more green to them. They are a mixture of the two and a little sen- timental for the taste of today. They | are rather story telling in their con- tent, pleasant and attractive, but lacking in some element of decision ‘in in a truly artistic and profes- | | and certainty. Yet there is charm and a warmth of color. © Upstairs there are the scientific Water colors by the French artist, E. Cheverlange, who is in Washington doing some important work for the Smithsonian. He is painting the water colors for the volumes to be published by the Smithsonian Insti- tution, which will be a popular ac- count of Natural History. The pres- ent paintings are of fish, in brilliant colors and delicate and delightful de- Signs. The fish are absolutely scien- tifically drawn and painted in all the ' These | water colors are brilliantly done with | an exquisite fineness of line and de- | Gifferent in their point of view, one They are, however, more than | 8¢ing strongly, the other with deli- |}cate and poetic fineness of feeling, beauty of their natural colors. tail. merely a scientfic illustration of Marine fauna and flora. They are accurate and remarkable drawings in water colors of the denizens of the deep sea. M. Cheverlange has lived for years in the tropics, in the South Sea Island, in Tahiti and elsewhere. makes his scientific observations fre- quently under water. He is an expert Giver and when under the sea sketches the fish or marine plants for his completed work. This is done by taking a copper plate and covering it | With grease which will withstand the water and then when in his diver's costume and when each foot has IS pounds of extra weight on it to keep him under water, he makes nis sketches with his etcher’s needle, and when he is ashore he finishes his paintings. The artist has the “wan- @erlust” and enjoys his life of mean- | dering over the face of the globe. He has freedom of movement whether re is living in America, France or in the South Seas. His interesting person- @lity makes his paintings even more remarkable than they would be other- wise. The exhibitions at the Arts Club will be on view through Saturday. In Black and White. Most of the other exhibitions to be @een here the present week are of work in black and white. First in ary points by Cadwallader Washburn recently made in North Africa. These heads are on exhibition at the Dun- thorne Gallery and are perhaps the Most artistic work that has been Shown there this season. Mr. Wash- burn’s work has gone ahead by leaps and bounds. It is instructive to note the improvement between the first etchings made by this artist and the Peally significant work that he is showing in the present exhibition. These latest examples of his work wave the depth and richness of a Rembrandt. They are splendid char- gcter studies of men from the ends of the earth, from Algeria, Tunisia and other parts of Africa. The heads have been printed on dark cream paper | ; like old which gives a deep tone Perchment to them.

ARTS CLUB, 2017 I street— Paintings by Mary Riley, Gladys Brannigan, Althea Hill Platt and E. Cheverlange. Mostly the drawings are of the men themselves, such as “Breton Fisher- man,” “Three Men of the Sea,” “The Village Politician,” “Ancient Mari- ners,” “The First Mate” and “The Last Word” in which the kindly hu- man sympathy and humor of the art- ist comes to the front. The writer was privileged to meet the artist at Concarneau in Brittany last summer and watched him draw some of these inimitable sketches into which he puts so much that is characteristic of the Breton fisherman in his habitat. The drawings’ in pen and ink and pencil, as well as the etchings and dry points, are broadly and spontane- ously done, in quite a different style from the drawing of his loved ships. Mr. Grant is a member of the American Water Color Society, New York Society of Illustrators, Allied Artists of America, New York So- ciety of Painters and other art clubs and organizations. His exhibitions will be on view through May 18 and will be the last of the present season to be shown in the Smithsonian Building under the direction of Ruel P. Tolman; director of the department of graphic arts. . . ‘The exhibition of Elizabeth Muhl- hofer at the Carlton Hotel will be on view every afternoon from 3 to 5:30 and on Sundays from 5 until 8 o'clock.

The poster shows a horse jumping high in the air against the background of a brilliant red disk. It follows out the principles of good advertising for the red disk Carries a greater distaince than any other color and the black horse tells its own story simply without any ef- fort. It is a direct, simple design, but one that carries much distinction and “gets over” the idea strongly.

The boy's father had many friends among the captains of through them the lad knew well many of the ‘famous ships that have passed into | memory. Page Cooper says of him that he ‘was at 12 years old sent to Scotland \to school. “Committed to the care j of the skipper of the crack Glasgow ship City of Madras he spent four months on the way. It was a fasci- nating school of sea lore to the eager | youngster who managed to find un- | holy entertainment in the foc'sle in 'spite of the captain’s ‘don’ts.’ The master was a pious disciplinarian, who forbade the boy's going aloft, but at the end of the voyage there was no more hardened little salt /afloat, or one with a more precocious knowledge of the sea jargon and pro- fanity picked up from the crew. The ‘impressionable boy with the passion | for drawing had fallen in love with ‘the sea and everything afloat.” Later the boy went to Fifeshire, a |seaport town in Scotland, where he | spent his spare time loafing with the tions. Later Grant studied art in London and then was back in San Francisco with a position on the staff of the Examiner. Within a year he was in New York working on the staff of the World as an illustrator. He was sent to South Africa for Harper's Weekly as special artist during the Boer war and later for nine years he worked on the staff of Puck. Recently he has abandoned every- thing to perpetuate in his paintings and drawings the memory of the clip- per ships which made America for a brief period queen of the sea. He draws the men of the sea and their women folk, ancient mariners who have such strong characteristics that their whole life is saturated with the The Woman's Club, of Kensington, has held two very delightful meetings \In April, the first on April 4, when the members were entertained at luncheon by Mrs. Frederick Holton, at the Holton Arms School, in -Wash- ington. After a five-course luncheon served in the beautiful dining room taste- fully decorated in spring flowers. with the table appointments of blue crystal and lace, suggesting the school colors, |the guests adjourned to the library where coffee was served. rs. Holton was not only the hostess for the day but also the speaker, her subject, the “History of Art,” and its place in the curriculum of every school and college. The warmth and magnetism of the hostess as she de- livered her address—her wonderful poise entirely deyoid of self-conscious- ness—made each woman present fee) what a rare opportunity lay before the girls privileged to attend this school of such unusual and sincere atmos- phere. The speaker at the second meeting which was held in Kensington, was Mrs. James H. Alburtis, for so many years a teacher of nature study in the schools of the District of Colum- bia. Mrs. Alburtis has recently re- turned from an automobile trip of 10,000 miles to the Pacific Coast and return, extending over several months. She described not just the country and the scenery but the “human” part of the trip, which was intensely interesting to her hearers. Business Women The regular meeting of the Business and Professional Women’s Club of the District of Columbia will be held Monday evening at the clubhouse of the American Association of Univer- sity Women, 1634 Eye street. Maj. Julia Stimson, chief of the Army Nurse Corps, will have charge of the meeting. Maj. Stimson has been act- ing as chairman of the educational committee.

WATSON 1 North Paca St., | Baltimore, Md. | Telephone National 5700 for an Inspection Appointment Se eee: OX To People Who Have Been Unwisely Influenced by Well Meaning Friends A number of people in Washington have WANTED to buy a coopera- tive apartment home in Tilden Gardens. They have decided that such a home is the IDEAL PLACE AND MANNER in which to live. But well meaning friends have talked them out of it. The advice and suggestions of friends are often quite valuable. But ONLY if based on facts. Had these friends had COMPLETE informa- tion—F ACTS—rather than random hearsay, their advice would have been by all means to purchase. ' Because cooperative apartments are comparatively new to Washington, there is much misinformation and misunderstanding about them. Time will eventually correct this condition, but in the meantime HUNDREDS of rent-paying people will CONTINUE to buy their apartment homes for THEIR LANDLORDS INSTEAD OF THEMSELVES: Our firm has built more cooperative apartment homes in Washington over a longer period than any other organization. The people who have INVESTIGATED our cooperative plan of ownership and as a RESULT have purchased these homes are certainly a guarantee of the SOUND- NESS OF THE PLAN. The list includes some of the most eminent judges, attorneys, engineers and architects; included also are senators, congressmen, two of the District of Columbia Commissioners, and lead- ing business men throughout the city. : In Tilden Gardens alone ALMOST TWO MILLION DOLLARS WORTH of cooperative apartment homes have been purchased within the past three years by as INTELLIGENT, KEEN-MINDED AND FARSIGHT- ED a group of representative Washingtonians as could be found in any other development in the city. s Write for this list of purchasers today. Visit the Early Georgian Ex- hibit Homie, so charmingly furnished by W. B. Moses & Sons, walk through the lovely gardens, and then permit us to present to you the TRUTH about this ideal form of home ownership that offers so much for so little.

It concerns Phyllis. a very modern young girl, who has been taken on a visit by her father to his ancestral “home and given ‘he room formerly inhabited by his grandmother in the hopes that its hallowed atmosphere will have a calming effect on Phyllis’ modern, and to him, her disturbing, ideas and ac- tions.

Marjorie Brockett, who did such ex-- cellent work in “The Curtain,” the Community Drama Guild Tourna- ment entry, plays the part of Phyllis; Frederic E. Staebner, the father; Leanno Palmero, his grandmother, and Ellen Russel, the maid. A very lovely set of the period of 1840 is be- ing planned by the stage committee which includes the .Misses Eleantr Giladmon, Janet Gover, and Dorothy Kembali. Miss Ina Hawes is the direc- tor. “Released” by Edward F. Smith, the second play, is a stark tragedy in which all the parts are taken by men. The scene is iaid in a prison cell and all the action takes place behind bars before which a jallor paces. The set is being worked déut by John W. Adams. The players are very fortunate in having as the chief actors in this play, William E. Bryant, who has done much work in the Shakespeare Society, and Paul Alex- ander, who has twice appeared in the Drama Community Guild prize tour- nament plays. Other actors are How- ard Hosmer, Felix Schwarz and Wallace -Dyar. The director is Harry A. Westcott.

MUSIC AND MUSICIANS By ELISABETH E. POE. ASTER music for the most part 3 will. be repeated in the Wash- ington churches today and thus give those unable to get into the crowded edifices on Easter Synday itself a chance to hear these elaborate programs. Washington choirmasters and choirs have every reason to feel proud of the results of their work in preparing these programs for they compared favorably with any sung in the country. Washington reveled in a feast ef opera music last week through the . visit here for its spring season of the Metropolitan Opera Company en route from Atlanta, Ga. The occasion was one which reflected great credit on all connected with the presenta- tions. It demonstrated also that \.ashington will support grand opera when adequately presented. Washington also enjoyed the first appearance of the augmented United Service Orchestra at the Pan-Ameri- can Union last Monday when the Marine Band Orchestra added men to the personnel already including mem- bers of the Army Band Orchestra and the Navy Band group. Music for “Dedication Sunday,” to- day, of the Universalist National Memorial Church, Sixteenth and 8 streets northwest, will be given by the National Capital Choir, Dr. Al- bert W. Harned, organist and director, at the two services. For the morning service, at 11 o’clock, the music will be: Organ prelude, “Grand Fantasia” a2 MUSIC EVENTS OF THE WEEK.

Music Week under the auspices of the Wash- ington Choral Festival Association will take place Saturday afternoon, May 10, at 5 o'clock in Epiphany Episcopal Church, 1317' G street northwest, and will be open to the public. , This first concert to be offered by Washington’s newly organ- ized choral group comprising singers from all sections of the city, and in- cluding representatives from many leading musica] organizations, will be conducted by one of America’s most distinguished choral conductors, Dr. Frederick Alexander, who has been working with the big chorus once a month throughout the winter in preparation for this event. Due to the loyal support of a num- ber of Washington's music lovers who have made generous contributions to the cause of “better choral music in the Capital City,” it is possible for the executive board of the association to offer this opening concert to the pub- lic without charge, instead of giving the concert in a much larger audi- torium, necessitating paid admissions, as was the original intention. 4 On the day following the public concert, Sunday, May 11, at Arlington, in the Amphitheater, the chorus will make its first moVietuae picture, which will be released for Decoration Day throughout the country. On this occasion also Dr. Alexander will con- duct. Recent contributors to the founde- tion fund of the Choral Festiva] Asso- ciation are Gracie K. Richards, Alice T. Strong, B. F. Saul, Col. U. 8.

DALY ———_—_______ PRTAINLY, no one can complain this week about a poor ad- mixture of\drama. There are all kinds of plays for the dis- cerning. ' At the National Theater, Mr. Stephen E. Cochran's celébrated com- pany offers a modern farce, one fashioned for the charms of. Miss Biljie Birke and used by her aéa vehicle for two years. . Miss Marion Wells, another red head, will essay the leading role in “Jerry.” On the south side of the Great Appian Way, Walter Hampden brings in three plays—‘“Richelieu,” “Caponsacchi”’, and “Hamiet.” Here, then, is diversification. 3 ° pn OO) Oz @ HERE is good contrast in this assemblage of plays. The. four of them represent as many periods of playwrighting and of life. “Jerry” {g distinctly American, and of the moment. It is fast and furious farce, the stuff of which the National Theater Players make ‘the most, Indeed, over a period of five years, the National Theater - Players have made their‘reputation as entertainers in the realm of \ light comedy... They have done serious work, too; but always they are at their best in the lighter moods. ey wa This is as it should be. Exponents of the modern drama, they work e well in modern settings. Once in a while they go back to some of the remote modern plays, of our own time; but even there ‘they re- main within the:fold. Let the Walter Hampdéns do the heavier stuff, ‘they assert, and we will attend to our Knitting ‘inthe frothier ma- teriais. ¢ ; By adhering to this policy the National Theater Players have built up their following, and it can not’ be taken away from them; mo mat- ter what the opposition. Indeed,\one of the tributes to the Players is that they manage to overcome the stiffest opposition. In this * their fourth week on E street, in the current season, they have . weathered storms that would have wrecked lesser. companies, ' After this week their opposition will-vanish as:the thin air.: Mr. _ Walter Hampden has the honor of being the last player to tread, the , boards at Poli’s. On Saturday night next, when the curtain falls. on ‘the last play in the Hampden repertoire, Mr. T.-D, Bonneville, the manager, will close his accounts, send his statements to New York, the Hampden players will depart, and th#t will be the last of a great -and glorious old playhouse—a house that has seen sefvice here these past 46 years. . No special ceremonies are in order for the passing of Poli’s. The doors will close, the Government will send along the wrecking crew, sometime in July, and the old theater will tumble and fall. That will “be the end. | FTER Saturday night, - « . * therefore, the National Theater Players / \ will have the field to themselves. most of it. , Naturally, they will make the Mr. Walter. Hampden, who furnishes this final competition for boxoffice sheckels, brings to town three of. his best-known works, He opens with “Richelieu,” a version that has capsed some comment since it is not of the old or sterotyped order, In fact, Arthur’ Good rich, who rewrote the work, has sort of pepped it up—as the saying goes. He took out all the “asides” and played down some-of, the old) outstanding lines and speeded the action. “AS It was Mr, Wendall Phillips Dodge, the former dramatic: critic and now (publicist, who uneathed an interesting bit of theatrical lore, a letter which Bulwer-Lytton wrote to Macready. This missive is out of the John Forster collection in London, .and~ gives. the author's original outline of his celebrated. play, “Richelieu.” Not published in ~ Macready’s “Reminiscenes” in 1838, the letter bears the date Sep- ‘tember, 1838, and is published herewith: : “~ “My dear Macready: I have thought of a subjact.. It is to this effect: In the time of Louis XIII, the Chevalier de Marillac is the wittiest-and bravest gentleman, celebrated for his extravagant valor . and his enthusiasm for enjoyment, but in his most mirthful moments a dark cloug comes over him at the one name-—the name of ‘Rich- . elieul’ He confides in his friend ‘Sing Mars’ the reason, viz: He had . Once entered into a conspiracy against Richelieu; Richelieu discov- * ered and sent for him. ‘Chevalier de Marillac,’ sy he, ‘I do not wish to shed your blood on the scaffold, but you must die; here is a com- mand for the frontier; fall ia battle.’ He went to the post but met flory and not death, Richelieu, reviewing the troops, found him still living and said, ‘Remember the sword is over your head. I take your parole to appear before me once a quarter. You can still find death; I will give you time for’it.’. Hence his.extravagant valor; hence his desire to make the most of life. While making this confidence to ‘‘Cing Mars’ he is sent for by Richelieu. He goes as to death. Riche- lieu*receives him sternly, reminds him of his long delay, upbraids him ‘for his profligate life, &c...Marillac answers with. mingled wit and nobleness; and; at last, Richelieu tells him that he has qualities that * make him wish to attach him to himself, and that he will marry him _ to a girl with a great dowry, and give him high office at court. He “must marry directly. Marillac goes off enchanted. 7 . “Now Richelieu’s motive is this: Louis XIII has fallen in love with . this girl, Louise de la Porte, and wishes to make her his mistress, All the king’s mistresses have hitherto opposed Richelieu. He is resolved that the king shall have no more. He will have no rival - with the king. He therefore resolves to marry her to Marillac, whose . life is in his power, whom he can hold in command, whom he believes « tod*noble to suffer the adulterous connection. *“‘Marillac is then introduced, just married, with high appointments and large dowry, the girl beautiful, when on his wedding day ‘Cing Mars’ tells him that the king loves his wife. _His rage and despair-— * eonceives himself duped, scene with the girl in which he recoils from her. Suddenly three knocks on the door. He is. sent for by the king, dispatched to a distance; the bride, not wived, is summoned to court. ‘‘Marillac, all pride and wrath, and casting all upon Richelieu, "agrees to conspire against the cardinal’s life. The fortress where ‘ Richelieu lodges is garrisoned with. the friends of.the conspirators. Just as he has agreed, he receive anonymous letters telling him that his wife is at Chantilly, that she will sleep in the.chamber of the .. Montmorencies; that Louis will enter the room that night; that if “ he wishes to guard his honor he can enter the palace by a secret passage which opens in a picture of Hugo de Montmorenci, the last “ duke, who had been beheaded by Louis (an act for which the king * had always felt remorse. This Montmorenci had been a most inti- * mate friend of Marillac, and had left him his armor as a present. A 2 thought strikes Marillac and he goes off the stage. . “Louise alone in this vast room, the picture of Montmorenci ir complete armor, a bed at the end. She complains of her husband’s _ want of love and laments her hard fate; dismisses her woman. The * king enters.and locks the doors; after supplication and resistance on *, her part, he advances to seize her when from Montmorenci’s portrait * comes a cry of ‘Hold!’ and from the figure in the frame, apparently the ghost of the murdered man? descends. Loiis recoils in’ supersti- tious horror, and the disguised; Marillac seizes the terrified Louise . and escapes. whence he had come.” . (Some lines are missing here that I supplied from the context. Marillac evidently goes through ' the same processes ,of thought as does De Mauprat; attempts to « murder the cardinal, finds he is the one who had helped him regain ~ his wife and foils the conspirators by telling them that he has . strangled the cardinal in his sleep), “that there, are no marks of « violence, that it seems like a fit” (suffocation). ~ “The king, who has always feared and hated Richelieu, hears the - news and is at first rejoiced, the courtiers delighted, Paris in a ~» jubilee.

TO SEE THE AN ACTRESS ALWAYS LONGED CITY BEAUTIFUL INCE she was a tiny tot and S through her high school] years, small Marion Sterly, now in- genue with the National Players, has nursed that rapt admiration for Washington that intense people hold for distant places associated with hie- tory. Naturally every school child holds a reverent curiosity for a Cap- ital redolent with events from’ the invasion of the British, through Civil War days. Lincoln's death and other quasi numerous happenings. Through- out the year there are steady pilgrim- ages of school children from far away cities to view the sights of Washing- ton. Such a youngster was Marion, but a child born and raised in California has little chance to enjoy the.privi- leges of travel across the continent. So she satiated her curiosity in the next best way by collecting pictures, postcards and curios from the Capital, preserving them carefully until that time came when she could see’ in actuality the scenes she was familiar with in pictures. Before the time came,for her to come to Washington, just five weeks ago, she had made a journey to Aus- tralia and to various mid-west sec- tions. Though a splendid young actress. fervid, almost, in her enthusiasm, daily rehearsals were sometimes irking while thoughts of unexplored sights about town flitted through her brain. She has already made the routine cir- cult—the Monument, Library of Con- gress, the Capitol, LAncoln Memorial and such. The big sight, to date, was to have dawned Haster Monday when the much-advertised egg rolling on the White House lawn was to be her goal. They have these contests in many cities, including Oakland, Calif., but usually on private or schoolhouse lawns. Never with so august a back- ground as the White House. hearsal for Marion last Monday be- cause there was no role for her in “The Honor of the Family.” So every- thing was, as she expressed it, “just perfectly awful ideal.” Marion tea-ed with friends that significant day. Time flitted with no care for gossip over the china. Three o’clock, 4. Then consternation! Half the eggs in the city had already rolled to their doom’ when Marion and en- vourage embarked for the White House. Traffic was what {t always is on such 4 day. One mile from their goal the gas tank ran dry. Left-hand turns were forbidden dn their high- wey. By a circuitous route they reached a {filing stetion.

Mm. and Marion THREE PLAYS IN HAMPDEN REPERTOIRE Tomorrow evening in Poli's Theater America's leading romantic and clas- sic actor, Walter Hampden, will ap- pear in three Of his greatest suc- cesses—“Richelieu,” “Capsonsacchi,” and “Hamlet.” For his opening bill Mr. Hampden will give his latest success, “Riche- lieu.” being a modern version of the famous Bulwer-Lytton classic drama made especially for the actor by Arthur Goodrich ) Instead of five acts, there now are three, divided amon# eight scenes. All of the action goes forward in the house of Marion de Lorme, apparent mistress of the ambitious Duke of Orleans, but actual agent of the far- reaching Cardinal, or in the palace «f the Cardinal himself, or in the newly acquired residence of the stupid and impetuous Chevalier de Mauprat, or in the gardens of the Louvre. “Richelieu” will be repeated by Mr. Hampden on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday nights. At the Thurseday matinee and on Thursday and Sat~- urday nights he will play “Capon- sacchi.” This play, based upon Robert Browning’s poem of “The Ring and the Book,” also was written by Ar- thur Goodrich, this time in collabo- ration with Rose A. Palmer, and especially for Walter Hampden. Brief- ly, its plot concerns Pompilia, daugh- ter of a wealthy bourgeois family, who, when 13 years of age, was forced by her mother into a loveless mar- riage with cruel and impoverished Couht Guido, who wanted her for her money alone. Four years later in Arezzo, Pompilia me? a young priest, Guiseppe Caponsacchi, who took, pity upon her plight and at- tempted to save her from Guido. The husband ‘tried to compromise Pom- pilia with Caponsacchi so that he might be justified in killing her. In the end he did kill her and her par- ents, too, and entered a plea of justification because of Pompilia’s supposed relations with Caponsacchi. Then the play begins with the mur- der trial, dramatically unfolding the evidence in a series of highly color- ful, picturesque, romantic and tragic, yet not without much good comedy. In his present repertoire Mr. Kamp- den includes his memorable Hamiet, which he will enact for a single per- formance at the Satufday matines. Por these three tremendous dra- matic productions in one week Mr Hampden brings his full and com- plete scenic equipment, costumes and accessories, designed by the noted architect - stage designer. Claude Bragdon, as used during the long runs of these plays in Hampden's Theater, New York. Appearing in support of Mr. Hamp- den will be Ingeborg Torrup, Evelyn Goodrich, Mabel Moore, Cecil Yapp, Ernest Rowan, C. Norman Hammond, Edwin Cushman, 8. Thomas Gomez, Moffatt Johnson, Dallas Anderson and Portuitously there was no dress re- | several others. | The schedule of performances of Mr. Hampden’s repertoire at Poli’s | Theater this week is as follows; Mon- | day, Tuesday. Wednesday and Friday evenings, “Richelieu;” Thursday mat- inee and Thursday and Saturday eve- nines, “Caponsacchi,” and Saturday matinee, “Hamlet.” Held Over. The gratifying response following the announcement that “Nana” was to leave the city has induced the man- agement to continue its exposition herefor a few days longer. Wherever the superb picture of Suchorowsky has been exhibited it has drawn thou- sands of people. In Chicago at the World's Fair over 500,000 visitors ap- preciated its beauty; and in every city to which it has been taken the same fascination has been exercised. Everything about the picture is of the same uniform perfection, and proclaims the genius of the painter and the triumph of his art. It is all of a piece; the golden heir falling showers, the eyes of blue, laugh- ing inhocehtly. the teeth gleaming like pearls, and the accessories, the jeweled bracelet, carelessly fallen on the rich-hued rug, and the table cov- ered with drapery of the richest satin sheen. The picture is shown to pe- cullarly fine advantage at 1411 G street northwest from 11 a. m. to 10 p. m. dafly. Demand for Browning. Walter Hampden’s production of “Caponsacchi” has caused more de- mand for Robert Browning’s “The Ring and the Book,” upon which Gramatic poem the play is based, than has existed in years. Brentano re- ports that they soki more copies than In the receding twelve months, and Putnam & Dutton got rid of their entire supply during the same pe- riod and had to order a new lot. The New York Public Library also felt the interest in the Browning masterpiece, all the available copies having gone ‘into circulation since Mr. Hampden began playing “Caponsacchi.” The leading publishers have made offers for the book tights of the play and it is likely to be on the market inside of a month. ROLAND HAYES. Roland Hayes is said to express the particular genius of big race more completely than any other Negro; He has made his voice.a More delicately perfect organ than eny singer of his race and has probed more truly than any other Negro the inner ‘beauty ,of the world’s greatest songs. As Roland Hayes sings to. thousands in America and Europe each season. the inevitable effect upon interracial. understanding and coe one is, of course, inestimable. With the spirit- uals, precious folk songs of his péo- ple, he has astonished musical Eu- rope, transfixed his American audi- ences with the Negro’s vision of God. He has newly revealed the art sorigs of each nation to countless péople, black and white. And lines of color vanish as the miraculous singer through music, the emotional art, softly touches the depths gnd the gamut of human feelings. Roland Hayes will give a recital] at April 30 at 8:30.

Dr. Hub-« bard believes. In fact, the surface of this field has hardly been scratched. “Kfowledge and aré accumu- lating at such a rapid pace nowadays,” he explained, “that it is impossible for any man to keep abreast of all the developments in his own spe- Cialized vocation, to say nothing of the strides made in others. “Radio, as I see it, when it reaches @ mechanical stage that it can be used for communication more easily, will play an important role in bring- sng to & man any information that he desires from ahy part of the world, oa — only a few minutes of vs : Technical Data to Be Had. “Say with the utilization of téles Vision and radio if ‘an instrument that may be called, by way. of illus~ tration, & radiograph, a man in New York may wish to get some. technical data on iron, for instance. “He could communicate with a large library where this information is filed; number, he have -the his eyes.” £ might:pe in Washington or Berlin or London.” a ‘This accumulation and, Classifica’ tion of knowledge on various subjects is already well under way, according to Dr. Hubbard, but it needs some- thing like radio to give it a maximum of usefulmess as so much time and effort are wasted in traveling or writ- ing for such information. Memory to Be Discarded. “Memory, which was hever a. pri- mary functfon of thé brain, will pe supplanted by. creative’ imagination under this system,” he predicted, “as men will no longér have to burden’ their minds with a lot of facts which they may use only once in a life- time.” ; ; With such equipment man will, aiso be able to more nearly approach the Utopia. when working hours will be cut té6 a minimum of time.

Dr. Hubbard thinks that this dis- semination of knowledge will be re- ciprocal, too, in that the hordes of listeners will respond to requests for personal experiences or cbservations via radio as they now do .. ques- tionn‘-es or straw votes. . For instance, an author wishing data on examples of intelligence in dogs could gather a tremendovs amount of material by merely broad- casting an appeal, he poin out, while a university class in psychology could get any number of at a naires answered in short order. 50 Kinds of Noises Produced by Cabinet “Big Noise,” & newly invented sounds-effect cabinet, used by lumbia, is capable of ucing more than 50 different k of noises.

As heard over the air, there was a smoothness in their playing and a tone balance which would have done crédit to many of the older symphony orchestras. Due to the exceptional acoustics of the Pan-American Building— the most brilliant of any’ we know of, with the possible exception of the old Academy of Music in Philadelphia, from which the Stokowski Orchestra conéerts, were broadcast—the tympani and the basses, 80 rarely heard to advantage over the air, came through thafVelously. .

Rowe, director general of the . Pail-American Union to the attentton of long-winded radio spenkers,. Always brief, Dr, Rowe established a new record. As the schedule worked out, he was allowed but 55 seconds to make the concluding address. This he did adequately in exactly 45 seconds. N the old days before the advent of the motion picture there used I to be terrific discussions following a prize fight as to whether a blow had been struck under the belt and whether or not a referee had beén correct in a close decision. At such times, with all the attending excitement, the actions of the fighters were often quicker than the human eye with the result that endléss controversies arosé. Today, in such a contingency, & slow, run of the motion picture is made and evéryone can see exactly what happened. For years it has been customary to compare the amount of applause a speaker received on controversial portions of a speech. However, with the coming in of radio, as in the case of movies, a new way has been found to record and check back on exactly how much applause was registered at certain points. This was revealed in an unusual expériment made by E, J. Spitzer: “When one of the publications, opposed to the World Court idea, reported that President Hoover's reference to the World Court at the opening session of the D. A. R. Congress met with meager applause, it did not take into consideration the fact that the President’s fu)! address over the radio was recorded on dictaphone cylinders,’’ Mr. Spitzer said. “I succeeded in doing this and when I applied a stop watch to the recorded applause after yarious statements made by the President in the course of his address, it was found that his referénce to the World Court received an applause that was as great in volume and spontaneity as the one that followed his introduction and his con- It was also only a few seconds less than that which follow- éd his introduction atid greater than that which followed his con- clusion.”’ vn | WONDER. how many people besides myself and my friends .

Scott, Washington representative of the Radio Manufacturers’ Association. “The inquiry as to ‘radio receiving sets’ in the present _kensus ques- tionnaire will afford the first reasonably dependatle information 4vailable to Congress and the Federal Radio Commission,” Mr, Scott said With Some animation. “ “The equality of radio reception to the people of all the zones’ at present is an unprovable formula. The attempt to effect such an axiom in physics that ‘sound is that which is heard.’ At present areas in the United States are radio deaf. The limited number of receiving sets in a few States might justify their being catalogued as ‘hard of hearing.’ “My personal regret is at the infrequent collection of data by the Government.’ This thought was emphasized by Dr. Julius Klein at the recent trade conference suggested by the President to meet an indus trial depression. Dr, Kleia implored the trade associations to stimulate the collection of trade statistics, asserting that such infor- mation was comparable to the physician's thermometer a’ an accurate register of physical conditions.” . . ” * * .

Study Deals With Mass And Individual Frailties Careful Yet Human Survey of 898 Fatal Accidents in Ceveland Looks at All dren Aided by $ Accident Causes; Chil- afety Education. By WILLIAM ULLMAN. Motor vehicle accidents can be earefully and uniformly analyzed, yet | mot in the cold, statistical fashion that laboratory phenomena are classi- fled. They can be viewed. from the standpoint: “This was a human life. What human failing caused its un- timely end?” ‘It is trom the latter perspective that 808 fatal accidents in Cleveland during the last 44 months have been studied. The mood of the study, . which is hopeful as well as human, a9. much as the conclusions drawn | ' from it “makes it more than ordinarily interesting. . In. linking these mis- haps with the human fallure behind | them the study.~has viewed human failings broadly. Failure to Rave 4 sufficient mumber of traffic officers it views as human. It takes the same position on the failure of the city to provide streets that are wide enough and smooth enough and fast enough to move the vehicle stream safely. These it regards as human failings, Mass failings, but much the same as those individual weaknesses that im- pel drivers to turn corners too fast ,of interest in this connection. It | evidences the value of safety educa- | tion conducted among children, it is pointed out, and, beyond that, it | reveals the disposition of the able- | bodied adult to take chances that the child has learned is wrong and which the older person will not risk. Another fact developed by the study that is contrary to the common assumption on the subject is that relating to responsibility for acci- dents. Whereas “too fast for condi- tions” and similar intimations of driver guilt are given to account for a majority of accidents, the Cleveland study ascribes the fault to the victim |in the strikingly high proportion of 60 per cent of the cases. Few general traffic surveys have been more interesting in shedding 'ight upon intoxication as an acci- dent factor. So much attention has been focused upon the drunken driver, some observers point out, that the intoxication of pedestrians in fatal mishaps has been largely. over- looked. When Driver Was Drunk. “A significant change is noted with regard to intoxication on the part of both drivers and pedestrians,” says the report. “For the 44-month period the average was one fatality in thir- or pedestrians to step cT the curb into-a moving stream of vehicles. | | Facts as Revealed. | Ag to the -conclusions drawn from the study, some of them are in strike | ing contrast to common assumptions | with regard to traffic mishaps. Among the facts revealed by this study, made by the Cleveland Automobile Club and the Cleveland Safety Council, are: That adults, not children or the old, were responsible for the city’s recent increase in traffic fatali- | ties. That during the entire period wom- | en crivers caused onl; 4 per cent of | the fatalities and. during the last | thirteen months, only 2.5 per cent. That 60 per cent of the fatalities | ere classified as being due to the vic- | tims’ own negligence. | That while deaths caused by | Grunken drivers decreased 50 per cent in the last 13 months of the 44- month period, fatalities caused by intoxicated pedestrians increased 25 per cent. That passenger cars were respon- sible for 79.3 per cent of the fatalities during the thirteen-mdnth period: trucks for 15.5 per cent, taxicabs for 2.2 per cent, and street cars for 1.9. That of the 315 traffic deaths “7 | ing the thirteen-month interval. per cent were caused by dition under 35 years of age. Hit and Run Drivers. That of the same number of Geaths, 7 per cent were caused by drivers who fied after the accident without making their identity known. That the congested areas are the most prolific in fatal accidents and that a majority of these occur during periods of greatest congestion. Not all of these, of course, are con- trary to what might be expected to be shown by such a study. For in- stance, it is pretty obvious that pas- senger cars would account for by far the greater proportion of fatalities. Nevertheless, there are some points in the summary that will cause re- flection because they will come as a | surprise. The fact concerning the | increase in deaths among able-bodied adults while those among children | and older persons have decreased is ' | movement. teen chargeable to drunken drivers and the same ratio chargeable to in- toxicated walking. In the thirteen- month period, however, only 1 death in 25 was caused by a drunken driver, while the number caused by intoxication of the pedestrian victim increased to one in ten. In other words, drunken driving as a cause of traffic fatalities decreased about 50 per cent, while those due to intoxi- cated pedestrians increased about 25 per cent.” Not a word of defense is uttered for the defenseless drunken driver in the report, but the intoxicated pedes- |trian is brought into the foreground. | too. Considerable interest attaches in some quarters to the analysis. of acci- |dents caused by women drivers. That during the thirteen-month period which showed a general increase in fatalities women should be responsi- ble for only 2.5 per cent is regarded as indicating not only greater caution, but more respect for the traffic regulations. If women account for, roughly, 20 per cent of the drivers and are responsible for only 25 per cent of the fatal mishaps, the figures afte regarded as significant. “Tired hours” and “play hours,” | the interval between 5 and 11 p. m.., the survey reveals,’ per cent of all the accidents. “Work hours,” the six between 6 a. m. and noon, on the other hand, had only 16 | per cent of the total mishaps. These figures with regard to pe- riods in which accidents are concen- trated tie in directly mith the impor- tant fact that most accidents happen on streets carrying the greatest’ vol- ume of traffic and at the peak of An aspect of this which especially interests many observers is that, despite the most rigid control of traffic exercised om such thorough- fares, they account for the majority of mishaps. Detached, thorough, and with a mood of human interest, the study winds up with the establishment of the point that conditions in congest- ed areas are improving. It holds out strong hope of further improvement through street improvement. adequate traffic regulation and control, and ed- ucation—broadly, by overcoming hu- man failings on a mass and individ- ual scale.

DELUXE AIRPLANES PLNNED FOR TRAVEL Extra Fare Will Provide More Comfort for Passengers, Mayo Says. CLUB SHIPS ARE COMING Extra-fare, de luxe planes for those who are willing to pay an extra charge for a greater measure of comfort is a forthcoming evelopment in the field of aerial transportation, according to William B. Mayo, o leading figure in the industry. According to Mr, Mayo, the intro- duction of club planes with luxurious interior appointments and accommo- dations will be @ logical step as a re- | sult of reductions in air passenger rates. “Bince’ the first of the year,” Mr. Mayo says, “many of the commercial alt lines have reduced their. rates, In some imstances where they are com- parable with rail plus |Pulimen fares. The result has been an immediate and remarkable increase in alr pas- senger traffic. “Before * these reductions air = sengers.as a general rule were’ who were not concerned “with But sinee fares have been brought within the limits of the traveling man's expense account the air lines are carrying large numbers of sales- men and other business représenta- tives. “There still exists a class of persons who are willing to pay, higher fares for additional comfort in airplane travel, just as there is a class of rail passengers who patronize the extra- fare trains. Interviews with opera- tors have convinced me that before .yery long club planes with individual upholstered chairs and davenports and other attractive interior appointments ‘will be available to those who wish to pay for them.” Plugs May Be Wrong. If the motorist fails to get expected performance out of a more volatile gasoline, it.may.be because the plugs are of the wrong type. A hotter gas takes a hotter spark plug. : Cat Ganare, Litt ideas ‘For Road Improvement -H is @ very definite idea that many motor vehicle authorities have as to what is needed to make highways faster and at the same time safer.

HANDSOME LACQUER FINISH 15 EXPLAINED Chromatic Beauty /of Cars Determined by Balancing of Solvents. DRYING IS SHORTENED How the modern car gets its chro- matic pulchritude—in ‘other words, its handsome lacquer finish—-was ex- plained to the Society of Automotive Engineers recentiy at a meeting held at Toronto. The speaker was R. M. Smith, executive of a large paint pro- ducing epmpany. Diustrating the unparalleled growth of the lacquer industry in recent years, Mr. Smith noted that in 1924 there were uced in the United States 3,500, gallons of lacquer; in 1925, 11,000,000 gallons; in 1926, 22,- 000,000 gallons; in 1927, 30,000,000 lons, and tn 1928 no leas than 47,- ,000 gallons. A large proportion of the production of cellulose lacquers, Mr. ith said, was used by the automotive industry, and these lacquers had given to the industry accelerated production and conservation of floor space, by elimi- nating the long-drawn-out process and the extended acreage needed for drying. The speaker did not enter into any extended discussion of the technicali- ties of lacquer production, but touch- ed on the qualities of the various ni- trated cottons used as a solid base and gave a practical demonstration of the solution of cotton in ethyl ace- tate.

Hints GETTING RID OF POISON IVY AND SUMAC, (Bureau of Plant Industry.) In undertaking the eradication of poison {vy and poison sumac, it would be preferable to employ the occa- sional persons who are practically immune to ivy or sumac poisoning. Workmen unfamiliar with -the plants should be warned of the risk in- volved and advised that leggings, long leather gloves, heavy work shirts offer considerable protection. In. the -rabsence of leggings and gauntlets, the trouser cuffs should be snugly and the shirt sleeves connected in first ounce and 10 cents for each additional ounce. Use airmail daily for qu tied around the tops of the shoes) similar manner to the cuffs of short secre. All articles of clothing com- ing in contact with the plants should afterward be removed. The poison adhering to such articles may make them a source of harm for an in- definite period. Thorough washing in the manner previo recommended (as a preventive) should invariably be practiced after exposure to the plants, and similar precautions should be observed in the washing of clothes or articles contaminated with poi- son. Workmen should be warned against touching the clothes to the face or permitting twigs of poison ivy to brush against the face. In burning dried, uprooted plants, cafe should be takén to keep away from the poisonous smoke. | Straight Eight 125 i ower 30° Wheolbass Four Door Sedan reason for paying more, for less.

Fielding Lewis, were plan- ning to tear down the house and subdivide the property. The wom- en of Fredericksburg. prevented this. histori¢ tragedy when they speedily took action and founded the Kenmore Association, which hag saved the home and grounds from déstruction. The Garden Club of Virginia having agreed to restore the Ken- more garden, in order to secure funds for this purpose, prevailed upon the owners of the most beau- tiful and historic estates. in. Vir- ginia to open them for a wéék last © spring to visitors. A fee-of 506 cents for each garden visited was charged, and so great was the in- terest fn this garden pilgrimage that again this year it is being repeated. ¢ ; Sixty thousand people made the tour last year, and from the ad- vance. interedt taken in it this year the Virginia Garden Club expects more than 100,000 visitors the week of April 28 to May 3, when more than 100 of the lovely old homes and gardens will be open to the public. Again it will cost 50 cents a person to’ visit a garden, and where the house is open to visitors $1 will be eharged to go through it. This year the money earned will be used toward the restoration of the gardens at Stratford, or Strat- ford Halli, the birthplace of Gen. Robert E. Lee. built- about 1730 by Thomas Lee, president of the Council and Act- ing Governor.of Virginia. One of the most distinguished citizens of his day, he was the father of eight. sons, two of whom, Richard Henry Lee and. Francis Lightfoot Lee, were signers of the Declaration of Independence. They, too, were born at Stratford, in that distinc- tive colonial home, called today ‘the most historic in America. Un- fortunately, with the ravages of time and war, the original garden at Stratford. was completely de- stroyed. However, with but little effort of the imagination and aid- ed by a knowledge of the general plan of gardens of that period, it is certain that the members of the ‘Virginia Garden Club will restore it most beautifully. As there is so much interest -in connection with this garden pil- grimage, a word or two about the lovely gard ns and their planning will add to the visitor’s enjoy- ment. The late Mrs. May Newton Stanard in her splendidly accurate book, “Colonial Virginia, Its Peo- ple and Customs,” writes that very little is known about the early colonial gardens. She finds that Robert Beverly, ease with which both fruits and flowers were grown in Virginia and especially mentions the tulips, the perfection of flavor of all sorts of 'erbs and the charming colors of the humming birds reveling among the blossoms; but he adds that there are but few gardens in Virginia that he considers worthy of th: ; es Mrs. Stanard st tes that the first mention of a garden.in Vir- ginfa is in the Voyages of De Vries, a Dutch .sea captain, .who This house was ~ the historian, yriting about *700, spoke of the _— _ ' > ~- Photes by Frances Benjamin Johnston.

A History of Some of the Great Estates of the Old Dominion—A Brief Account of the Reason of the Pilgrimage to Them by the Public—The High- ways- to Reach Them—An Appreciation of a Great Opportunity. By BARBARA TRIGG BROWN was at Jamestown in 1633. He describes a visit to Littleton, the plantation of Csorge Menifee on James Ri- 7 or 8 miles from town, of its two-acre garden, full of Provence roses, apple, pear and cherry trees, the various frui‘s of Holland with different kinds of sweet smelling herbs, such as rosemary, sage, majoram and thyme. Life in the fire’ century had been too diffic--"‘ to permit garden planning, but the housewives must have -had their garden plots where they grew medicinal herbs, so ~**seasary for the family’s health. The vegetable gardens were often bordered with flowers contained a large area devoted to them. “The circle, a driveway from porch to gate around eacn side of a large or small circular, or oval plot planted more or less elaborately in trees, shrubbery, or flowers, was the rule with Vir- ginia farm houses of +"' descrip- istoric Garden Week tions before the Revo'stion and long afterward. Beyond this, the more ambitious houses—the manor, mansion, or great house on the pla-':tion—had lawns, groves, and avenues of trees se- elrding them from the road. At Stratford there was an oval flower plot at both front -1d rear—-the one in ‘nt having in it a sun- dial. i “Other favorite details of the colonial garden, whether terraced or level, were the box-walk, the box-maze, and the rose-embowered summer-house. Both dwarf-box and tree-box were much in use. A dwarf-box maze at Tuckahoe (near Richmond) and one at Mount Ver- non may still be seen.” The Westover garden, consid- ered the most beautiful spot in, America in the eighteenth century, is gone, but the ancient box-trees have survived and the gardens have been restored. This garden is planted half in shrubs and flowers and half in fruits and vegetables. At Sabine Hall, situated on the Tidewater Trail near Warsaw, there are some original terraces, and this home is reached by a pri- vate road that winds through a wooded park for a mile to connect the house with the State highway. One of the most perfect ex- amples of dwarf-box planting can be seen at Montpelier Manor, near Laurel, Md. The plan is said to have been copied from Marie An- toinette’s little garden at Ver- sailles. The Maryland mansion, with seventeen others, will be open on May 4 and 5, while twelve Eastern shore estates will be open on May 6, the owners having agreed to cooperate with the Gar- den Club of Virginia. Montpelier Manor has a rare example of the old bowling green, as has Mount Airy, on the Rappahannock, where there is a striking example of a sunken bowling green. Again on a river, this time the royal James, the garden at Bran- don is one of the most famous in Virginia. In the last three years the present owner has made it even more beautiful than ever, in spite of the fact that Mrs. Stanard wrote of it in 1915: ‘Stretching from the rear entrance of the house to the river, unbroken by . terraces, but with its broad grass walk hedged with old-fashioned perennials of every kind, its spaces of bloom and spaces of greensward, its masses of shrubbery, its mag- nolia, mimosa, smoke, and other ornamental trees, and its charming water view, make it a place to dream in and dream about.” It is impossible to give more than an idea of the wealth of beauty and history that are a part of these old homes in the cradle of our great Republic. The very fact of their being in the cradle of the infant America, when there comes the opportunity to visit the private homes and public shrines, that opportunity has been, and will continue to be, seized by the forelock. Immensely helpful for this particular occasion is the comprehensive and entirely ac- curate guide-book, “‘Homes and Gardens in Old Virginia,” that willgbe on sale wherever the gar- dens are open, as well as in many of the towns and cities, at the bu- reaus of information. established in them pilgrimage week, Designed, as its coeditors, Mrs. Suzanhe Williams Maggie and Mrs. Frances Archer Christian, state On the jacket, “to give to the tourist making the garden pilgrimage g

Perhaps Mrs. Mollie B. Light- foot has struck the keynote and emphasized the reason for the tre- mendous interest shown by the theusands of visitors from other States who come to Virginia every year, when in this book at the end of a brief description of Jamestown, she writes: “Welcome, tourists, and let us pause in reverent memory and re- call that here was the first trial by a jury; here the first English Church with its administration of the sacrament, preaching of the Word; the first English marriage: the first birth of an English child in Virginia; the first seat of gev- ernment in this great land upon which our national Government was founded; here the Old World first met the New, and here was the foundation of a Nation of free men which has _ stretched its dominion across the continent to the shores of another ocean. Let use cherish our Past for the sake of our Future.” The name that the members of the Garden Club of Virginia have chosen for this tour, “Pilgrim- age to Virginia's Old Gardens,” Omits the word historic, that would seem to be a necessary ad- junct in order to give a complete idea of the rare experience that lies in store for the expectant vis- itor, for the ground that he will cover, the places he will visit paint a true picture of America’s colonial history. In Virginia, divided as the au- thor Paul Wilstatch has suggest- ed, like Gaul, in parts, there is to be found, according to him, Tidewater Virginia, “beyond compare more interesting than any other equal area between the two oceans;’’ Mountain Virginia, fought over and romanced over, rich in beauty and, paradoxically, rich in battlefields: Southern Vir- ginia, tobacco heaven.

The story of every State is woven with romarnce, and in Virginia, her homes and gardens are her ro- mantic expressions. It is iaivty easy to prophesy that for several years to come, as the spring comes round, the Virginia garden pilgrimage . will be staged for some artistic and historic cause. It will become, like Washington's famous cherry blossom show, an event to be looked forward to each year. Therefore, the visitors this year, realizing that they can not see all the gardens, can choose the places that appeal most, knowing that another year will méan another chance to visit gardens in a dif- ferent part of the State.

APHTE 97, “4530. dca Is Facing the Dole of the American Federa- tion of Labor, is a mild- mannered man, not given to ex- plosive speech, and opposed, offi- cially and personally, to anything and everytliing that- has a com- munistic taint to it. No witness who appears before committees of Congress is given a more eager and a more respected hearing. It is conceded to him, I believe, that he does not go off half-cocked, but that when he makes a state- ment it is bulwarked by facts that he has clearly in his mind. With this background, when he told a committee of the Senate that is holding hearings on un- employment: “The country can not stand these shocks as they come from time to time as the result of unemployment, and the Government will be face to face with providing funds to take care of workers, or revolution, or have a revolution on our hands; that is my opinion;” he gave the country a jar from which it has not yet recovered. W ‘ct ihe GREEN, president It is said at the headquarters of the American Federation of Labor that no statement ever made By a president of that body has met with such an instant and favorable response as this one. This is attested by letters, by tele- grams, by telephone messages and by press cuttings from newspapers published in all parts of the country. This vast body of opinion is being assembled and studied, and it will probably be brought into use in the tampaign that is now on to find a‘ remedy" for unemployment in this country. Mr. Green sees just ahead of the Government the adoption of the dole as a temporary, maybe a permanent, expedient. ‘I do not like the commonly) called dole,”’ said he. “I do not think it is a good thing. It is rather demoral- izing, because I think a man is better off to earn the money than to have it given to him, and there ought to be . opportunity ated for him to earn the money. -Yet I am sure, from a study of the situation here and abroad, that it is impossible for us to go through these experiences unless we adopt some measures to. deal with them in an adequate way.”’ Amplifying this statment, Mr. Green made it clear that.the Gov- Govern- labor, ernment alone, nor the ment plus the help of could solve the problem. Indus- try, said he, must be educated. “Legislation must be supplement- ed by patriotic and economic and . industrial service on the part of private employment corporations and employers.” Unless they do this, labor can not escape the dole. “They can not let mep and women go hungry,” he went on. “They will have to choose be- tween better planning and the dole, in my opinion.-- Thréy are headed for it, and that will be a shorter working day and a shorter working week, so that the pro- duction in industry can be bal- anced with the consumptive power of the people.” This is pretty strong stuff; un-- palatable to many in this great, rich and progtessive country. It does not seem to fit in with our conceived notions of an industrial America. But it should not be forgotten that rich and progres- sive Great Britain, next to Amer- ica the most powerful industrial nation on the globe, has long had the dole, and still has it. Her most enlightened statesmen wish that she didn’t have it. They think ' it is bad advertising for John Bull. And so it is. To get an apposite picture of such a situation in this country one does not have to think back more than a dozen years to the day when the buy-a-bale move- ment “to help the poor South” was in full swing. The South was not poor, the buy-a-bale pro- gram did not stabilize the cotton market and the poor farmer who grew the cotton sold at the mar- ket and carried the hot brick home as usual. Out of the welter of that situation the South, a very rich, a very potential and a very proud and self-respecting section of the American Union, was ad- vertised as a beggar in rags hold- ing out her hands for alms. In the day of her humiliation, after the collapse of the Confederacy, she did not do that, but proudly, almost defiantly, shouldered her losses ahd went head to rebuild her broken fortunes, There has been n0_.publicly spoken reaction in Congresa or in “e@ny other branch -of the, “ree: ment to this prophecy Mr. cre- | The Present Unemployment Problem Confronts the Nation With Dire Outlook—Perfection of Mechanical Appliances and Fertility of. Ameri- can Inventive Genius Advanced as Causes—Pres- ident Green of American Federation of Labor Sounds Warning Note. By DAVID RANKIN BARBEE We naturally do not care to think of a revolution—the last one in 1861 lasted four years and let a lot of blood——nor do we care to think of our splendid army of working men and women being converted into a rabble of beg- gars. That is what most of us think the dole is—a miserable handout to a set of miserable, lazy, shiftless idlers. Such a group in our industrial life surely would lower the self-respect and morale of the whole labor fabric. It is not the purpose of this writing to discuss unemployment in America or the cures for it. That is left to the philosophers and the statesmen. What is to engage us is a peep at the dole in England, to see whdt it is and Green. how much it costs and how many English working people are on it. Thesé facts are set out in the an- nual reports of the ministry of la- bor and in official statements by members of Parliament. “The dole is not a public char- ity,”’ according to Fenner Brock- way, a Labor member of the Brit- ish Parliament, who recently made a visit te-the United States. “It is a benefit arising from an insurance scheme. The workers, when they are employed, pay weekly contributions to the scheme, Similar amounts are paid by the employers and the state, and it is from the fund so created that the unemployed ben- efits are distributed. Under the scheme the worker, when em- ployed, puts part of his -wage aside to provide against the dan- ger of unemployment; the em- ployer contributes in order that his employes may maintain their physical fitness during unem- ployment until he requires their services again; and the state con- tributes fn order to prevent the unemployed from becoming a complete public charge upon the poor law funds.”’ This is a fair statement, per- haps, but reading between’ the lines one gets a lightning glimpse of the truth. Those on the dole are paid back something that they have paid into an insurance fund, the employers and the gov- ernment then chip in and make up the balance. In short, those on the dole are really objects of charity. Now, what do they draw from the dole? “The amount of the benefit is so small,’ says Mr. Brockway, “‘that it is ridiculous to suggest that any worker -would be content to live upon it if there were possibilities of obtaining wages from work. An adult man receives only $3.50 a week. If he is married he receives an ad- ditional $1.75 to maintain his wife and 50 cents for each of his children. Even though the cost of living is less in England, it will be seen at once that these benefits are only just enough to maintain a family above sem!- starvation.” This was the situation in France ~which. brought on the French Revolution, a condition of semistarvation. If the French peasants had been round, fat men such as Julius Caesar liked, and not lean and hungry “like yonder Cassius,” the chances are, that they would have endured taxation a bit-longer and have worked out their salvation in some other way than by blood. This, perhaps, is what William Green had in mind, when he spoke of revolution. Our American standard of living is so high that any quick, sharp descent from it to a state of semistarva- tion might bring on _ serious trouble. ; Every country in Europe has for long years been faced with the .problem of unemployment, and so has the United Statés.- Germany first worked out a —_ of unemployment insurance, and “Bagiadd took to “it ae tb oe “Tt the. William Green, president of the A. F. of L., who foresees the coming, of the dole, due to unemployment resulting from mechanical and inventive perfection of this machine age. its early stages it had to do more with old age insurance than -with actual unemployment and bread- line problems. .After the World War, however, when the war in- dustries were deflated, so many met and women who had been especially trained in those indus- tries were thrown out of work that the unemployment situation became acute and new legislation had to be enacted to cure it. This resulted {n a series of changes in the insurance laws that brought the dole into existence. Every year these laws have to_ be changed to meet changing condi- tions, until now chtldren 15 years of age are on the dole, with a weekly dole of six shillings for boys and five shillings for girls. Squirm as much as British statesmen may, and do, over this situation, the fact remains that it has resulted in a serious lewering of the self-respect of the British working classes, and also the fact is that the dole is a heavy drain on the British exchequer. With regard to the financial drain, the following official item, taken from. the July number of the Gazette, is illuminating: ‘“The total annual revenue (of the dole) at present is about 43,000,000 ’ pounds, of which about 31,000,- 000 pounds is paid by employers and employed and 12,000,000 pounds by the exchequer.” Even this large sum, some $2156,000,000, is not sufficient to care for those who are eligible to fund at present is sufficient to cover the expenditure arising from an average live register of about 1,000,000,” says the Gazette. “The live register on June 24, 1929, was 1,117,800. The debt of the fund on June 29 was 36,620,- 000 pounds, and its borrowing powers are limted to 40,000,000 pounds.”’ all hands to the fund do not pro- vide sufficient revenut to care for those on the dole it becomes nec- essary to borrow from the excheq- uer to make up the deficit. More charity. This is how the fund is consti- tuted, according to the Gazette: “The weekly rates of contribution, in the case of men, are: Em- ployer, 8 pence; employed, 7 pence, and exchequer, 6 pence. The exchequer's contribution is less than 40 per cent of the whole.” In the past nine years, during which the dole has been a heavy burden on England’s wealth, the total cost to all hands, including the government, has been about $1,885,703,030, of which sum the exchequer has paid about $550,- 000,000. These figures are taken from the reports of the ministry of labor and are converted from British money into American maney. They do not tell all the tale by any means. Perhaps this can be glimpsed from a para- graph in the last annual report of the ministry of labor. “The increase in unemployment ~“the “aeler” “The revenue 6f the “daring” “the year (1929) from Sa hla PES ae San Crate eo -chines. When the payments by April onward, was reflected in the state of the unemployment fund, The total amount of bene- fit. paid out during the year was 44,260,606 pounds, of which 42,- 123,315 pounds was paid out direct through the local offices of the ministry and 2,137,291 - pounds through associations. These sums include dependents’ benefits. The average weekly number of persons paid benefit was about’ 954,000; and the aver- age weekly payment per head was 175,100. In consequence of the heavy demand on the fund, it be- came necessary to increase the borrowing powers of the fund from 30,000,000 pounds to a tem- porary limit of 40,000,000 pounds. The total’ outstanding debt of the fund on December 31, 1928, was 31,720,000 pounds.”’ These figures, of course, are not very exciting. They do not mean much to us in America. But some- where in them is hidden a tale of woe and misery that is pregnant with disaster. How do they com- pare with William Green’s star- tling statement that the first three months of this year the working population of our coun- try lost $1,000,000,000 through unemployment? If you multiply this by four you will get the astounding fact that American, labor this year will lose $4,000,000,000 in wages— not labor alone, but the whole commercial and industrial fabric or set-up of our country. Just how many working people are affected by this situation we can not tell. Mr. Green says the Government has no dependable statistics, and his own estimate is that 3,700,000 wage earners wére out of work in February. This large group is made up largely of those who have lost their jobs through the substitution of ma- chines for Men and through over- production, he says. One great industry of which we used to hear a lot no longer employs human beings——the glass-blowing indus- try. That is now manned by ma- “There are no skilled hand bottle blowers any longer,’’ said Mr. Green, with sorrow. Some of them are driving taxi- cabs and some are driving old Beck, and crying gee-haw. But he is accustomed to hard work, is this glassblower, and when his trade was wiped out by invention he was absorbed in some other work, even though it might not have been so remunera- tive. But consider the musician. He poses an almost insolvable problem, says Mr. Green. ‘He is temperamental and emotional: he is 50 or 60 years of age: he isa genius probably; a musician from childhood. His hands are soft, his muscles are soft. He is dis- placed because the talkie is intro- duced and the orchestra driven out and he can not go out into an already overcrowded industry and find a new place. * * * Where is he to go? Can he take a pick with his soft hands and dig in the ditch? * * * What are we going to do. with that man?”’ This sturdy old miner gave that Senate committee something else to think of besides the dole. ‘‘The man who loses the job Is the man who’ pays the price for the social progress that we are making. * * * He ought not to pay that price.”’ © This is something for the Henry Fords and the Edisons and the other mechanical and inventive geniuses of the country to answer. Industry is turning out its products faster than mankind can take them and pay for them. Last year manufacturers actually fab- ricated 15,000,000 radios without taking into consideration the fact that there is such a thing as a saturation point, beyond which no industry can move. This will make cheaper radios for those who can afford such a heaven- born gift, but if the radios are left in the warehouses and on the shelves, then labor pays the pen- alty by being laid off, and Mr. Green’s acute remark is illus- trated by this situation. Labor has had to pay the price. If America does have to come to the dole, as Mr. Green fears, it will be quite a shock to Capitol Hill. where every problem that nobody else can solve is carried for solution. Even now it is playing “‘higglety-piggiety, my son John” with this one. By the time Senator Wagner's curative bills get out-of the hop- per the situation may be very much like a national colic. . Let us hope not. Ree

4 T 4 F there is any truth to the old ] assertion that drama is con- flict, and clash, and contrast, then there is no doubt that the celebrated bombing outrage known as the Brady murder was fillea with the essentials of drama. ' Te begin with, the Brady mur- der happened at a time when the doctrine of peace on earth and good will toward men was being, and bad been, preached from ev- ery pulpit—at the Yaletide season. It was on New Year’s morning, in the little tewn of Seat Pleas- ant, Md., that a mother and her children gathered to open what they believed to be a delayed Christmast package. With the cutting of the string, the peering of anxious eyes and eager faces, there was a detona- tion that rocked houses from their foundations—a report heard a mile away-—and the resultant loss of three lives and the maiming of three persons. This was the beginning of the New Year. 1930, in Seat Pleasant, Md.. in the home of the Hall fami- ly on Carmody road. There was drama, pure and sim- ple. An 18-year-old bride—Mrs. Na- omi Hall Brady—was first to die. It was from her marriage name that this bombing outrage derived its appellation, the Brady murder. Naomi Hall had been married the previous year to Hermann Brady, a 22-year-old farmer of Mitchellville, Md. They had kevt their marriage secret—-the bride living with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. John S. Hall, the bridegroom remaining merely a suitor in the eyes of the world. Only one or two persons actually knew the status quo of this marriage, and one of these was the brother of Herman Brady, a Washington auto mechanic, Lawrence Leroy Brady, soon to be tried with “he husband-brother on three murder counts. Not only a bride, but an expec- fant moter, the hand of face dealt a double death blow whep it permitted a bomb to explode in the presence of Mrs. Naomi Hall Brady. It was her mother, Mrs. John S. Hall, who opened the package. At this ceremony, which took place in the kitchen of the Hall home, were gathered _the three youngsters of the family— Thomas, 8 years of age, Dorothy, half that age, and Samuel, a 19- month-old baby. The Christmas spirit had not yet departed. The Christmas trees had not been taken down in mest homes, Santa Claus had come and gone, true: but there were these New Year gifts, and visits from friends; 80 when young Leslie Hall came running from a neighbor’s house with a big package, that looked as if it might contain more Yuletide cheer. there was great rejoicing. “Open it,” the children shout- ed. They were asked to be pati- ent—-to wait until all hands gath- ered round. ~ ' hen. as Mrs. Hall, the mother, placed the box on the kitchen table. the Hall home knew its great thrill of New Year's morn- - a little while came the clash and the conflict and the contrast that makes for drama. Where, up to this point had been peace, and good will, and understanding, and order, and the yegular joy and happiness that permeate a home where little chil- dren gather at the morning festi- vities, there came now the mon- ster death—and destruction and desolation. - ‘The interior of that kitchen out in Seat Pleasant suddenly took on the aspects of the world’s end; of an earthquake, of a dug-out up near the front-line trenches after a bombing raid. It was New Year's morning—— a holiday—-and yet some members of the Hall family had to work. On the way out that morning John S. Hall, the father, undoubtedly reflected upon the gravity of his job—and of the sadness that goes with it, for he was then on his way to Mount Olivet Cemetery to dig a grave. To dig a’. \ve! It isn’t the happiest occup.stion for a man on any morning. On New Year's morning, with tne little children laughing and playing round the house, it gives the contrast that again makes for drama—and John Hall must have thought of this as he pulled on his overtoa: and started over the hills for the cemetery.

There was drama aplenty in the so-called Brady murder; more drama than is usually seen on the stage or the screen—is ever seen on the stage or the screen, since neither of these two media are big enough to hold all the drama packed in the Seat Pleasant bomb outrage. There were three generations —and a possible fourth—involved in this murder. In another part of the house an 86-year-old, grandmother sat reflecting on the passing of the old year and the birth of the new. And, perhaps, wondered how many more New Year Days ‘would roll over her ancient. head—-when, bang!——the walls of the Hall home were rent asunder and the house quaked. The-old granamother—Mrs. Mar- garet Bromley——was knocked un- conscious, suffering from concus- sion of the brain and other injur- ies. When she awoke, it Was many miles away, in a Washing- ton hospital. Yet, with all her age, she managed to get out of the hospital, to go back to the scene of the tragedy, and later to “learn of the contrasts in life— that permit the going of 19-month- old babies and the temaining of 86-year-old women; women whore lives have seen their fulfillment, babies who have yet to begin the march through the mazes. It was, In truth, a strange New Year's morning in Seat Pleasant. It was a bomb whose explosion will be reechoeed now in the Mary- land hills fer many days to come, for soon; .in the Upper Marlboro courthouse the legal battte will begin, the fight to save the lives of the Bradys——those two broth- ers, Herman and Lawrence Leroy —held on three murder counts. There was more contrast, and drama, even in the indictment of Herman Brady. It came during the Lenten period, when all the Christian world is in moufning. i , "Twas on the joyous New Year's Day that the bomb exploded. Incarcerated in the cells at the county jail in Upper Mariboro the Brady Brothers spent the Easter period awaiting the stage to be set for their trial. The holida the great ones —seem to re prominently m this human drama that cost the lives of three persons and resulted in the permanent affliction of three others. Mrs. Halil, the mother, will be blind for life. The two children are maimed. So, while the world joyously cele- brated the arrival of a new year, 1930, earey stalked toward the little town of Seat Pleasant. Out in this strange little. Wash- ington suburb, a delayed Christmas package turned out to be a mes- senger of death. It was shortiy after 10 o’clock on the first day of the new year that Mrs. Nora Hall, 45 years old, surrounded by her children, while Naomi Hall Brady opened a cam- ouflaged Christmas present, which turned out to be a bomb. Echoes of that dire day early in January were heard at the Easter- tide when Herman Brady, husband of one of the Hall women, was in- dicted, with his brother Lawrence Leroy Brady, by a Prince Georges County-grand jury on three counts of murder. In a little while, when the dog- wood trees of Maryland are herald- ing to the wide world the spirit of Maytime, the Brady boys will stand trial for one of the most atrocious, and at the same time dramatic, murders that has ever taken place in this vicinity. ‘Twas a poor little house out on Carmody road, in Seat Pleasant. that harbored this tragic scene on the New Year morn—a poor little house and yet a house filled with happiness of the Yuletide—for there were children, little ones, 4 and 8 years of age, Dorothy Hall and her brother, Thomas, and then the 19-month-old Sam- uel Hall: Three members of the family to escape injury were: John S.

Now this is the way it hap- pened, according to all the tales told: Steuart Carneal, who hap- pened to be the only eyewitness to the catastrophe, came running te the Hall home bearing, what he believed, to be joyous tidings. He had been down the road a way vith one of the Hall boys, Leslie, on just such a pr-sa‘: mission as having a pair of shoes mended. On-the way back, they passed the home of Mrs. John Buckley. ~ She called the boys, told them that three days previous she had found a package at her door®ep ad- dressed to Naomi Hall Brady, but thet she had not had time to de- liver it. Naomi Hall Brady was the sister of Leslie Hall, so he, natirally, voluntecred to fake the package home. Neither Leslie nor any of his family knew that Naomi Hall was married to Herman Brady. The package, a tempting affair for children, looked as if it might contain candy. It was wrapped m brown paper and bere various em- blems of the Yuletide. In ink was written ‘“‘Naomi Hall. second house on Carmody Road.’ It was later explained that the Halls, only re- cently having moved into the neighborhood, the bearer of the package was not aware of the location of their home and un- knowingly teft it at the wrong house, where it remained three days. = As soon as he received the pack- age from Mrs. Buckley, young Leslie -Hali started running down the roadway toward his home, the Carneal boy following. It was a wonder then that both these boys were not blown to pieces, for as Carnea] afterward told reporters, “I heard a rattling sound in the box while we were running.”” But he, in his ehildish fancy, thought this came from candy or nuts that might be bouncing around inside. Leslie took the box into the house and Steuart Carneal went around on the back porch to look in a window, while the opening cere- monies took place. At that win- dow he watched Mrs. Hall and her children gather around what they believed to be a belated Christmas present. As Carneal described it: ’ ~~ ~ bias i* sie? s ears Day -~ va : , + - -- THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, APRIL 27, 1930. . - . + “There was an awful bang @nd a flash and I hollered and ran.” That bang, and the flash, muti- jated. and kiHed -Naomi Hall Brady, an expectant mother; de- stroyed the eye of Mrs. Nora Hall, blew off two fingers from the hand of Leslie, the boy ‘who-- had brought the package in, knocked into unconsciousness Mrs. Mar- garet Bromley, the 86-year-old mother of Mrs: Nora Hall, and lacerated and wounded the three younger Halls, Thomas, Dorothy and Samuel. These last two-after- ward died from their wounds. Thus three members of the Hall family are déad as a result of this bomb miirder. Immediately following the ex- plosion; members of the Seat Pleasant Volunteer Fire Depart- ment rushed to the scene, followed by the rescne squad from Boule- vard Heights. They found there a scene of carnage comparable to what happened in many a dtgout in Francé. The bomb in that Christmas package had the same effect as a hand grenade. It totally de stroyed the kitchen of the. Hall family where the folks had gath- ered, eager-eyed, to revel in the spirit of Yuletide. Immediately rumors spread through the tower. A rejected suitor was recalled, an elderly man who had courted the 18-year-old Mrs. Naomi Hall Brady and who was jilted. The man, it was said, had proposed to the young woman two years be- fore. She spurned him and in June of. 1929 married Herman Brady, a 22-year-old farmer. Mrs. Naomi Hall Brady was the only one of the trio to die prac- tically outright’. She lived only long enough to get to the hospital on New Year’s day. On the fol- lowing day her 19-month-old brother, Samuel Hall, died at Sibley Hospital, where his sister Dorothy later died. The 86-year- old grandmother of these chil- dren, Mrs. Margaret Bromiley, was the least hurt of them all and left Casualty Hospital the day that Samuel died. In the meantime, the finger of suspicion was pointing to this old-time suitor of Naomi Hall Brady, an unfounded surmise, since later the man was released after seVere grilling. He proved to be an innocent bystander. Little or no progress having been made the first two of three days of the trial, two Baltimore detec- tives—Lieut. Joseph Itzel and Sergt. Charles Schalter—were set ,On the trail of the murderer. It was the suggestion of Gov. Alfred CG. Ritehe, of Maryland, that these two aces of the Baltimore Detec- tive Bureau were placed at the disposal of the Prince Georges County authorities. The case by this time had at- tracted the attention of the entire country and Seat Pleasant, a little town not far from Washing- ton, became the center of a great murder mystery. Up until the time that the Bal- timoreans got on the case, the whole thing was . handled by County Policeman Frank Prince, who later distinguished himself in the case. It was Clarence W.. Brady, 50 years of age, a giant of a man from Mitchelville, Md., who first became ensnared in the web of circumstances woven around the Hall-Brady mystery. Clarence Brady is an uncle of Herman, whose wife was killed in the ex- plosion. Herman Brady is now confined In the county jail at Upper Marl- borough in a cell alongside his brother, Lawrence Leroy Brady, both men indicted: on murder counts. Old Clarence Brady proved to be a great character. Doggedly he answered the ques- tions with the one phrase, “I don’t know,” and after grilling he was released. Then came the thrill of the whole case. Late on the night of Sunday, Jenuary 5, Ferman Brady and his brother, Lawrence oa 8 Brady, were placed in the Marlboro Jail.

current population census . are compiled, those spe- cialists who are following—with -bated breath almost—a certain odd, complex and quite important development throughout the West- ern world are apt to find some District of Columbia data quite ‘useful, : The development is that of a falling birth rate, long in evi- dence, but of late so sensational as to stir up, in the minds of many students, real worries as to the future of the race. It is now 25 years since Theodore Roose- velt, then President, spoke to a gathering of women in Washing- ton of the threat of “race sui- cide.” Since then the birth rate has slowed up tremendously. Conditions peculiar to the lo- cality make Washington data as to this particularly~ interesting. These data might throw a good deal of light on several questions entering into the problem, such, for example, as: To what extent is the falltng birth-rate a result . of women pursuing occupations outside the home? In what de- gree do women prefer comforta- ble single blessedness to preca- rious wifehood? ‘How far does the holding of positions by mar- ried women weigh against-moth- erhood? For, with respect to the greater part of Government employment in Washington, women have full equality with men, and often more than that, as to both avail- ability and pay. There are -no discriminations against married women, but to these when in Gov- ernment employ no concessions are made on the score of mother- hood. Life here is more favor- _ able than it is elséwhere te wom- en who wish to be economically independent, husbandless and ~ childless. These conditions tend to make - Washington—whatever we males may vainly imagine to the con- trary—a _ city predominately of females. In 1920 there were 13 per cent more female than male inhabitants of the District of Co- lumbia. In the United States as a whole, and in most sections and localities thereof, males predomi- nate numerically. In no other comparable locality is there an excess of females anything like as _ large as in Washington, which, in fact, is thus distinguished among the large cities of the world. Moreover, this is a city in large - part of unmarried females. Nearly half the white women be- yond their sixteenth birthdays in the District of Columbia in 1920 were single. This does not in- clude widows, “grass” or other- wise. In the country as a whole _ the married about double the _ number of unmarried. How many of the married in this area were childless is not stated, but the proportion is un- doubtedly larger than that for all ‘the country; and it is~probable that the number of children per married mother is smaller fn the District than as a rule elsewhere. In 1910 children under 5 years _ old constituted 9.3 per cent of the population; in 1920 they account- ed for only 7.6 per cent. Of course, Washington condi- tions attract to the city many women who, wherever they might live or whatever they might do, would not marry, and some who, though madrried, would not be- come mothers. But the modern phases of life which give to wom- en a widening range of practical choice between wifeh6éod and motherhood. and individualistic careers are, after all, only ampli- fied by conditions, chiefly of em- ployment, in Washington. Hence local data are especially valuable for ‘‘case’’ studies of the birth rate puzzle. When adjudged by the age- groups composition of the popu- lation on which it is based, the current birth rate of the white in- habitants of Washington is. not much above half of what demog- raphers say is necessary to sustain a stationary population. That is to say; if the white residents of Washington continued to produce —and not to produce—children and to die in accord with present ratios, and there were no incom- ing or outgoing of people; only a handful of white folk might be here two or three hundred years hence. On the basis of its current ra- tios of births and deaths, the Ne- gro. population likewise would disappear—-perhaps even more W “cer all the figures of the ee THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, ‘APRIT: eCo minitting Race Suicide i: 7 a Statistical Experts Agree That Washington Occu- pies a Precarious Position in the Matter of Re- productivity—Many Causes Contribute to an Obvious Distortion of National Figures in the Case of the National Capital—But Roosevelt’s Warning of a Qua quickly. But this section of the population ig governed demo- graphically by conditions much unlike those affecting the white section. ; .In 1929 births among both blacks and whites exceeded deaths in the District of Columbia’ in the number of 1,604. This natu- ral increase amounts to only about one-fourth of 1 per cent, whereas the rate of natural increase for the-country as a whole is about 1 per cent. The local natural increase is accreditable .almost entirely to the white population, as Negro births and deaths practically bal- anced in 1929. A factor of prob- able error might deprive even the whites of credit for the apparent increase. The total of births, es- pecially those of white babies, ac- eredited to the District is un- doubtedly inflated. This inflation results from the increasing use of hospitals as places for introduc- ing the newly born to the world. In 1929 72 out of every 100 births in the District occurred-in hospitals. A recent survey show- ed that about one-fourth of the mothers giving birth to babies in District hospitals were non- residents. Most of these came from outlying localities that are without hospital facilities. Thus these births by nonresidents are offset in only small extent by births elsewhere by Washington mothers, for there is no occasion for a Washington woman going elsewhere for hospitalization. So much for “natural increase” as indicated by surface figures, which as to births and deaths never, by themselves alone, mean much. The Washington birth rate last year was 16.4 and the death rate 13.45. For reasons other than the factor of error arising from increasing resort to hospitals for gbstetrical care, the birth rate figures are “abnormal,” though several points lower than for the-country as a whole. For like reasons the death rate was “subnormal.” The “true” birth rate was not above 12 per 1,000 of the popu- lation, and the “true” death rate was 16 to 18; that is, according to rules of determination devel- oped by Louis I. Dublin and Al- fred J. Lotka, Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. statisticians, and accepted by practically all vital statistics experts. By those rules “‘true’’ rates are determined by comparing births and deaths with the sex and age grouping of a population. For example, in Samaria, Palestine, there are about twice as many males as females—such a dispro- portion that the average man can not procure even the promise of a wife until he is around 30 years old. Then it may be possi- ble for him to buy the right to wed—when she grows up—a new- ly born female. The result is a very low birth rate when total population is the base, but a high one if the base is the number of females of child bearing age. It would be absurd to compare birth rates based on total populations of Samaria and Washington. The statement of it seems trite, but it is a fact usually overlooked in studies of birtk rates that women only and of certain ages can bear children. The propor- tion of these in different popula- tions varies. These facts are . taken into account in the finding of “true’’ rates. Likewise, age is the biggest factor in mortality. Death rates for the very young and the very old are much higher everywhere than for the in-be- tweens. And the proportional po- sitions of the very young and the very old vary widely. ‘A Local conditions tend not only to make Washington a city where- Than Valid. By A: H. ULM in females predominate numeri- cally, but also a place wherein the in-between age groups of both males and females are propor- tionately larger than in most lo- calities. In the country as a whole if 1920, 42.8 per cent of females and 41.6 per cent of males were 18 to 44 years old, the age of principal reproductiv- ity. In Washington 53.5 per cent of females and 50.4 per cent of males were of the age groups noted. Females being 13 per cent more numerous than males, and those females of child-bearing age be- ing 10 to 12 pgr cent more nu- merous among females in Wash- ington than in the country as a whole, it follows that the poten- tial reproductivity of the local population is around 25 per cent above that of all the country. That is to say, if births per cap- ita of women of child-bearing age were as numerous in Washing- ton as in all~the country, the number of babies born here in 1929 would have been some 3,000 above what was actually recorded, including those of nonresident mothers. There are distinguished demog- raphers who hold that the “true” birth rate of all the United States—which in 1929 was 19.7 per 1,000 of the population—is now only about equal to the sus- taining of a balanced stationary population. But the gloomiest of io sti pn e “ee +: rter Century Ago Still Is More them say that natural Increase will continue, at a declining pace as at present, for same time to come, They explain the seeming . anomaly by saying that natural increase is now mostly a result of momentum accounted for by dis- proportioned composition of the population. With a low birth rate and meager immigration, these disproportions are being “froned out,” say they. The experts contend that a birth rate of 18 to 19 is neces- sary to the maintaining of a sta- tionary population. They have gz00d experience data for this finding, as, with a birth rate of 19 to 20, France’s population has been virtually stationary during about a half century. The white birth rate of the District of Columbia, as calculated by the Health Department; was 14.4 in 1929. It was above 20 when Roosevelt made his histcric “race suicide’ speech. When discounted for “probable error’’ and for the excess potential re- productivity represented by the out-of-ratio proportion of women of child-bearing age, the present “true” rate is probably not above 10, or only a little more than half what experts say is, in the long run, necessary to the per- petuation of a people. High birth rates, of course, are not essential to the maintaining or the increasing of a people. In India, for example, the birth rate > Theodore Roosevelt, who, while President 25 years ago, warned of a condition of “race suicide” that now seems to be threatening Washington. i) ’ A I OTT + «sates BI GIE DY, eed 8 ™S is very high, running from 36 to 40. But the population increases very little—-that, for last year being, though unusually large for the country, only about one-fifth of one per cent. For the average life span in India is very short—— that in the United States being some three times as long. A third or more of babies die before reach- ing their first birthdays in India, while in the United States sow only about 65 out of every 1,000 born die during. their first years of life. The falling off in the American birth rate has been accompanied so far by something like corre- sponding decline of the death rate, This is true likewise of Washing- ton. The local death rate dropped from an average of 19.41 during the first five years of the century to 13.45 in 1929. It was even lower than the last figure in 1927 and 1928. The local white death rate has fallen from an average of 15.60 in the period of 1901-05 to 10.82 last year. The white in- fant mortality rate was only 43.5 in Washington in 1929. The rate is among the lowest in the world, being probably close to ‘‘zero.”’ It has gone down much in recent times, almost one-third in the last four years. For comparative purposes. the present white death and _ infant mortality rates of the city are highly creditable, indicating one of the most healthful communi- ties in the worla. But the rates for the Negro section of the popu- lation are not so flattering. Those rates have been reduced, and are lower than like ones for Negroes in numerous other cities, but the local rates still are unflatteringly high. The local Negro death and infant mortality rates are both more than dodble the correspond- ing rates for whites. However, some of this is accounted for by differences in age-group composi- tions. The composition factor relates to death rates in much the same manner as to birth rates, and un- less age-grouping is taken into account mere death rate figures mean, by themselves alone, almost nothing, though of value for pur- poses of general comparison. For instance. a calculation which even a fifth-grade school pupil can do mentally with ease, will show that the present white death rate of the District of Co- lumbia, the rate being based on total population, implies an aver- age life span here of nearly 100 years. Even the death rate for the United States as a whole now implies an average life-span of about 80 years, The average life- span of the people of the country is now about 59 years. It has ’ been increased much during the last 100 years, considerably, even, during the present century. But students of the subject say there is little likelihood of its be- ing increased much more. For they say that addition to the average life-span owes almost entirely to reduction of deaths from diseases more or less peculiar to the young. The average period of life beyond, say 50, eens | is shorter now than formerly; it certainly has not been increased, say statisticians who study such things. So the specialists hold that American death rates soon will be- in to move upward, and that, un- ess conditions change, the death rate will equal the birth rate in the next 30 to 40 years. The effect of prosvective changes in population may not be as pro- nounced in Washington as in the country as a whole or in the av- erage of American cities. This is because Washington’s is only in a small degree a “natural” popula- tion, being, because of the location of the Federal Government here, a more or less “selective” one drawn from all the country. Such, no doubt, will continue, at least for a long time. But this selec- tiveness, with appurtenant condi- tions, makes.the white population of the city peculiarly worthy of special study as to influences bear- ing on the perpetuation of the race, On the surface of things, the in- tensiveness here of many influ- ences which possibly have bearing on the birth-rate problem does not reflect altogether assuring results. Apparently, the people of Wash- eg are, as a whole, engaged in what Theodore Roosevelt, were he alive, would r- “ably denounce not as a mere threat, b* as actual race suicide. A thorough study might show that policies of the Federal Government are in much part responsible for this. poet eaghy f ?

I had not then seen 30, and all days were pretty good to me; but old, the idea! I consider it quite a recent book, and one, by the way, that will bear re- reading. I Have just accom- plished it at one sitting by skip- ping the best remembered paris. It was a worth-while experience and one that I shall soon repeat with some other best seller of yesterday. Of course, there were results from the reviving ef poor Trilby’s romance. For one thing, I learned the reason why the story Not So Long Ago. The waste basket shown on this page today is another example of what crimes -we committed in beauty’s name during that period when we believed that if decora- tion was desirable more decora- tion was more desirable. A wide satin ribbon run through the ap- ertures in the weaving of the bas- ket, though it terminated in a huge bow that inevitably caught all the dust as well as some of the discarded scraps designed for the inside of the receptacle, was not enough; other bows, loops and tassels must be added wherever space permitted. Sometimes we achieved the ultimate in beautify- ing the object when we added a cluster of artificial fruit or flowers to the side intended for display. The example exhibited on the ‘‘fancy-work” page of the maga- now seems just a little puerile— no, perhaps young is the better word, meaning not quite adult— is that I myself am too seasoned, too tired, to entirely relish Du- Maurier’s simplicity. How could it be etherwise when one considers the legion of “most popular books of the sea- son” that have marched in an unending column through the mind of an average reader during the last ten years. If we are fair we will admit, after a two-hour session with the book, that Trilby is a beautiful story, beautifully told. Its setting is as charming today as it waa when “Les trois Angtliches" roamed the Latin quarter. The plot at least is definite, and, unlike many novels of its day, it was spared the in- evitable happy ending. Read it again, for discipline if for no other reason, but be prepared, as I was not, to take your medicine.

The seventh decade of the last century was about half spent when this picture was made. No doubt it was true to life in the days before the system governing civil service was established and a free-for-all scramble followed the inauguration of a new Presi- dent. This. particular new broom started. out with the proclama- tion that no vacancies would be created except for cause and no appointments made except on merit. Cards to that effect were posted about the lobbies, and sec- retaries responded to all appeals like automatons. Nevertheless, insistent callers flourished letters of recommendation above their heads and shouted the names of influential backers into the ears of the attendants, hoping that their importance would some way reach headquarters. The harassed incumbent of the presidential chair was accused, of course, of being false to preelec- tion promises, just as all men in high place have always been ac- cused by the disappointed hordes, The illustration is a current picture of the time, perhaps, though nowadays such scenes would scarcely be tolerated at the White House.

The Search for Antiques. Auction sales in the country, es- pecially in sophisticated New Eng- land, are not what they once were if we are to believe the magazine writers who specialize in antique collecting. Half a century ago the “‘craze’’ was “new.” Perhaps Mr. Greeley helped it along with his memorable slogan, “Go West, young man.” But if household possessions were offered in the open market for that reason (and we refuse to consider the Tore- closed mortgage possibility), there is always a note of pathos in the breaking up of a home. Old things loved for their asso- ciations, regardless of their value otherwise, are dragged out from the snug corners where they have stood for years and subjected to the unfeeling criticism of strang- ers. The secretary that Uncle Eben worked on evenings in the big kitchen all one winter miter- ing and morticing the hard wood into the beautiful thing it was, the chest of drawers, clumsy per- haps, but so well made that a few superficial misfortunes, though they may disfigure, can not ruin its sturdy frame.

Let us hope that she bought it for a begrudged half dollar and that it stood in the tool shed for another 50 years and then Was triumphantly bid in by an antique hunter for $100, the tarnished brass ferrules on the “feet” ac- counting for the extra $25. : “Rarey.”’ Inconceivable as it may seem there was a time when whole sec- tions of the weekly newspapers were not devoted te portraits of baseball players. When prize fighters, erudite or otherwise, hav- ing no following among the lit- terati or royalty were not taiked of freely in polite society. Film heroes and crooning experts were yet to come and that variety of personality known as “it” had not been discovered by the psy- chologists, who themselves were yet unborn. Yes, there was such a time and since human nature was then about what it is today and hero worship is_as necessary as breathing, herse racing was the sport preeminent. and race horses the heroes of the day. Sometimes a miniature jockey shared in the fame of his mount, but the name of.the well-born, trained and beautifully groomed trotter who had lowered a record most recently was always on every tongue. Who of his time did not know Dan Patch or, of hers, Maud S and, earlier still, in those zest- ful days, who had not heard of Rarey? There were other Rareys, too, than the one shown here, for the cognomen was rightly popular, be- ing that of a famous horse break- er who was said to be the first of his trade to tame a horse without the use of the lash. This humanitarian, though born in Ohio, spent several years in Texas studying horses in their wild ~state. Later he traveled abroad, preaching by his practices the extraordinary gospel of kind- ness to animals. It was said of him that he never failed to subdue the most stubborn horse without striking one blow, believing that an animal must understand your will in order to comply with it. So this is Rarey of racing fame, whose godfather, let us say, lived from 1828 to 1866 and left the world better for his stay. ALICE DAKIN. the Home. iol Al Gin

em me ae eee ca Laying a Nation's toric laying of corner stones in Washington than in any other city in the United States. The most important, of course, was that of the United States Capitol. The second in impor- tance was the White House. The third greatest in importance will be that of the new Supréme Court Building, which will probably be Placed in position some time dur- img the present year. The corner stone of the Capitol was laid 137 years ago—Sep- tember 17, 1793. This greatest of all corner stones was put in place by President George Wash- ington. It was one of the most impressive ceremonies in the his- tory of the Federal City. Hun- dreds of people were present from Maryland and Virginia. The sol- dier-President was snowy-haired. He had grown old in the service of his country. Newspapers at that time were comparatively few in the new re- public. No venturesome editor had as yet started a paper in the straggling new city on the banks of the Potomac. The story of the corner’ stone laying was therefore published in distant cities and weeks later carried back to Washington by a man on horseback for the citizens to read. The story, for imstance, appeared in Boston on October 5, eighteen days after the actual happening. In the Library of Congress there is an age-yellowed old Bos- ton paper which contains the fol- lowing account of the proceed- ings: “On Wednesday last one of the grandest Masonic processions took place which, perhaps, ever was exhibited on the like important occasion. “About 10 o’clock, Lodge No. 9 were visited by that congregation, so grateful to the craft, Lodge No. 22, of Virginia, with all their offi- cers and regalia, and directly aft- erwards appeared on the southern banks of the grand River Potow- mack, one of the finest companies of volunteer artillery that hath been lately seen, parading to re- ceive the President of the United States, who shortly came in sight with his suite—to whom the artil- lery paid their military honors, and his Excellency and suite crossed the Potowmack and was received in Maryland by the offi- cers and brethren of No. 22, Vir- gihia, and No. 9, Maryland, whom the President headed, and pre- ceded by a band of music the rear brought up by the Alexandria Vol-" unteer Artillery, with grand so- lemnity of march, proceeded to the President’s square in the City of Washington, where they were met and saluted by No. 15, of the City of Washington, in all their elegant regalia, headed by Broth- er Joseph Clark, Rt.

The only bit of comedy in the whole thing was that this man Brady, Clarence W., proved beyond doubt that he had never in all his life taken any interest in women; that his idea of spending a joyous evening was to remain on his farm an' read a mail order catalo until he fell asleep. In the celebrated statement, said to have been signed by Herman -Brady, and vouc for by Lieut. Joseph Itzel, the Baltimore detec- tive, were said to be three salient admissions. On the 9th day of January, Leroy Brady was form- ¢c with the murder of Swearing of the warrant fo a conference between Lieut. Joseph Itzel and Charles Schalter, the Baltimore detectives, Officer Aree, and , States Attorney, .J. Sharareeety : tae ‘ ' : : .}! Tet anhoundéime that he had ‘been retained as counsel for the Brady boy, Mr. Hampton Magruder said that State Senator Lansdale G. Sasscer and Frank Hall would act as assistant counsel. : At the preliminary hearing of Lawrence Leroy Brady on charges of murder, his brother Herman, who was being at the time held in jail, refused to testify, on the ground that he might incriminate himself. His counsel stated that he had no objection to Herman’s testifying provided that he was granted immunity from. further prosecution. Herman Brady was the second witness placed on the stand at the hearing, which was held in the Circuit Court room at Upper Marlboro. Justice of the Peace Harry W. Gore presided. When arraigned, Herman said he refused to testify if Mr. Magruder said not to. It was at this hear- ing that Herman Brady was shown the statement which detec- tives said he had signed while in jail, the statement implicating his brother Leroy. Herman was ask- ed if he had signed that state- ment. He admitted he had. Quibbling over this bit of testi- mony and over the demand for immunity led to a consultation amongst the lawyers, at the com- Lodge of Maryland, several lodges under its jurisdiction, and Lodge No. 22, from Alexandria, Va.; Thomas F. Johnson, David Steuart and Daniel Carroll, Commission- ers; Joseph Clark, Right Worship- ful Grand Master, pro temporae; James Hoban and Stephen Hal- lette, architects; Collin William- son, master mason.’ “The plate was then delivered to the President, who, attended by the grand master P.

Wilson Ryon, conducting the prosecution of Lawrence Leroy Brady, issued a statement saying that the State of Maryland would not concur in any offer of immunity which might possibly interfere with the ttial and conviction of the person or persons responsible for the New Year's day bombing at Seat Pleasant. They professed them- selves as utterly against legal quibbling. On the following day, Herman Brady was released from the Marlboro jail upon promise of his attorney that the man would testify at hig brother's prelimi- nary hearing and under bond of $1,000. He had been free until recently, when he was locked up with his brother Leroy on the indictment. Leroy had been in jail ever since his first apprehension, held for the action of the Prince Georges grand jury which recent- ly returned the indictments.

The trial is expected to prove one of the most interesting held hereabouts in years. pre Cornerstone A Brief Outline of the Events That Attended the ee me 7 “The President of the United States and his attendant Dreth- ren ascended from the cayasson to the east of the corner stone, and there the grand master P. T., elevated on a triple rostrum, de- livered an animated and ingeni- ous oration. “The whole company retired to an extensive booth, where an ox of 500 pounds was barbecued, of which the company generally par- took. With every abundance of other recreation, the festival con- cluded, with fifteen successive vol- lies from the artillery, whose military discipline and maneu- vers merit every commendation. “The oration delivered by Jo- seph Clark, right worshipful mas- ter, P. T., was in part as follows: “IT presume you expect I shall in some measure address you on this very tiniportant occasion, which [cenfess is duty incum- bent upon me, although quite in- adequate to the task, and entirely unprepared for, until high me- ridian yesterday I was not solic- ited, neither had [I a conception to have the performance of this duty. “*Therefore you my observations with brotherly love. They are, I assure you,, sincere, and dictated by a pure Masonic heart, though very brief. “ *Brothers, I beg leave to de- clare to you that I have, and I expect that you also have, every hope that the grand work we have done today will be handed down, as well by record, as by oral tradition, to as late poster- ity as the like work of that ever memorable temple to our order erected by our ancient G. M., Solomon. ““The work we have done to- day—-laying the corner stone of this designed magnificent temple, the Capitol of our extensive and Populous States of veteran repub- licans; States which were recov- ered, settled and permanently es- tablished by the virtuous achieve- ments and bravery of our most illustrious brother, and benevo- lent friend to mankind, George Washington. “‘T say, that we further hope that this work may be remem- bered for many ages to come as a similar work hath from the com- mencement of time to this re- markable moment: I mean the work of laying the corner stone of our ancient, honorable and sublime order. “*We also hope that the Grand Architect of all men, Free Masons and Master, may continue His great gifts of ability to all those concerned, to preserve in raising, not only on this particular cor- ner stone, buf on every other cor- her stone, already planted, and that may be planted, in this ex- tensive site for a Federal city— edifices so durable with strength and beauty, that with common care and nurture they may not envy time. **And we further hope that all the edifices which may be erected in this Territory of Columbia, may be numerously inhabited with citizens, to merit every com- mendation for their virtue, honor, bravery, industry and arts. “‘and I hope that our super- excellent order may here be inde- fatigably laborious, not only to keep in good repair our hallowed will aecept 1\dome+but the incessantly indus- ‘trious ‘th adorn it, with the ‘grand theological virtues,’ faith, ‘hope and charity and embellish it with wisdom, strength and beauty. ‘It would be ungrateful—in- deed I think impossible on this occasion not to notice, under the auspices of our most glorious di- vine providence, the rapidity of the growth of these magnificent buildings, and this extensive city, in so short a period, by the as- siduous indefatigible labor and industry of all those very valuable characters for virtue, honor, un- derstanding and ability, who have not only the supreme command, but in every grade. “ *Brothers, permit me to sug- gest to your good understandings, if so much can be done by the lIo- cal assistance of two-fifteenths of these vast States, by such an eminent leader, excellent direc- tors, architects, surveyors and mechanics; what ought we to con- ceive will be done by them, when alded by the remaining thirteen- fifteenths, who will set to with willing and powerful hands, not in a local and sparing, but in an infinitely generous and loving manner.

WAHiUH HANNA — FAT ANT Ni THE STORY SO FAR: Edward Bardolph, million- aire, planned a marriage dis- tasteful to all friends of the prospective bride. In announce- ment of the betrothal he issued invitations to an elaborate din- ner. Before it could be held, stock in his enterprises crashed in the market, his finance eloped and Bardolph was found dead, apparently a suicide. Five indiriduals, to whom the truth might have been known, suddenly disappear, leaving the implication of murde?. While friends of the five seem willing to let the suicide verdict stand, a London newspaper gets scent of the story, stirs up Scot- land Yard and deepens an already bafj/ling mystery. CHAPTER SEVEN. 66 LUCKY chance,” gays the poet, “oft decides the fate of monarchs as of lesser folk.’’ It was a lucky chance that caused me to turn from the telephone to the window at that moment. In the next moment the man who was slowly walking by the garden gate and glanced at the house would have passed and I should not have seen him. I took no special notice of him at the but for some reason his features re- together with time, obscure mained in my mind, the fact that when I saw him I was thinking of Fenstock, ‘‘Re- mained mind’ is hardly a correct of the thing. I suppose the vision of a man’s face through the gateway was stored, to be dug in my account geen subconsciously out by some subsequent associa- tion of ideas. I sat in my study most of the day, making up arrears of work, or rather trying to work—for I thoughts wandering whip’s while to Adelaide and Wilby, and Fenstock back from the north. I reckoned that if Fenstock had started from Hull before then, as he must would probably reach home by 7 o'clock. But before 7 o'clock came I had begun to take my share in the turmoil of that turbulent day. Mrs. Batting brought in the evening paper about 6. tenis drove everything else out of found my every Mellon, on his way have done, he Its con- included excited at the Can- But these my mind.

James Edderley, who was one of the guests at the dinner-party; That both Maj. Edderley and his wife had left Woodbury Manor on Friday night, that they were believed to have gone to thé north of England, how or when the police would not explain, though they were in possession of certain clews; and that Scotland Yard was anxious that Maj. Edderley should report himself to the police wher- ever he was with the object of clearing up the suspicion that maturally attached to him in the circumstanees.

THAT DINNER CLT CT, ered the secret thatthe dining- room bookcase at Woodbury Manor contained, or got at the facts in some other way. The marriage of Edderley and Miss Darley it was impossible to con- ceal. Several people must have known of it, and the mention of their names in connection with the Bardolph affair could not fail to make some of those people talk. But how had Pierce obtained the clew to Ederley’s motor-jour- ney to the north? That was the crucial question for me. I was positive that we had left no traces for the police, or anybody else, to follow. It was most unlikely that in the lonely district of Wood End we had been seen that night. We saw nobody. Nothing had been got out of my servants; I could stake my life on that. The truth wag (and this made the position so dangerous for me) that Pierce had deduced the clew from things actually known—my close friendship for Edderley, his visit to me with Miss Darley on the Wednesday, the fact that I did make a long motor journey on Friday night and gave out that I had been to the north to see my sister at Hull. If Edderley, for any reason, de- sired to lie perdu, or if for any then he was now in the greatest peril. And I, who alone knew of his whereabouts, was hamstrung by the ingenuity of Mr. Pierce. That one little sleepy-eyed man should have done so much in less than twenty-four hours! It was up to me now to play at diamond cut diamond with Mr. Pierce. How could I get at Edder- ley without putting Mr. Pierce on his track? The closeness of his investment of my citadel was shown within an hour. I had asked Mrs. Batting to bring dinner forward to 7 o’clock and to show Fenstock in to me immediately he returned, He arrived while I was at the table, looking pale and hol- low-eyed but full of suppressed ex- citement. I made him go and re- fresh himself with a wash before he talked, had a place laid for him opposite me, and fed him, refusing to listen to a word until he had dined. “Now, Fenstock,” I said, when he had lit a cigarette. “First, sir, about the car. 1 hope you don’t mind. -I haven't brought it home!” “Then how on earth did you get here?”*1 asked. “I walked from the other side of Woodbury Manor Woods. I left the car in a linhay. There’s a girl I know. It’s her father’s linhay.” “What went wrong with the car?” “Nothing, sir. as oil.” Running sweet in th +; of——” ad St Jnow fort as | was coming into Reigate I lew Be a fellow I know in an- other car, and he stops me.

What’s he want, I wonder?’ But I told the man he needn’t go out of his wav to say he seen me, and I misses Reigate anc every other town and gets to Woodbury Woods. without seeing so much as the button of a police- man. And then I thinks that old Foker may be lyin’ in wait for me, and possibly he may be pokin’ his nose where it ain’t wanted; so I thinks of the girl nd the linhay and I gets home without advertis- ing myself—so even the fellow atrolling the lane don’t know I’m ome.” I listened to this recital with Mr. Pietce had taken his first fall. ecsling “Capital idea, Fenstock,” said I. “We'll talk it over directly. rave not av ay wreng., But ‘ “sire what Bren ee But tell me what happened last night.” I tried to keep the hunger out of my voice. “The young lady,” said Fen- stock, “had a very comfortable journey. She, slept most of the way. Mr. Wilby is a very pleas- ant gentleman, sir.” “Yes, isn’t he?’’ I said. “And the young lady—-what did you do with her?”’ “When we gets to Goole—it was about 8 this morning—Mr. Wilby says: ‘Fenstock, do you mind if we alter course 10 points to port?’ Not being nautical, sir, I didn’t know what he meant, but I said I didn’t mind. So under his direction we took off to the left, northwestward, more or less, and got to a little village about 5-and-20 miles on, whtre we stopped. The young lady was taken into a cottage and left with an old woman that Mr. Wilby called Nanny. He tells me after- ward she was his old nurse. He says he didn’t think he would take the young lady to his house just now in case there should be any nosey-parkers about, and I was to tell you she'll be quite all right there so long as may be needed. I drives him to Hull, leaves him at his office, and he tells me to get along back as quick as the speed limit will allow—he’s hu- morous, is Mr. Wilby—because you never know when you may be wanted.’ “Splendid, unasouy ‘“‘Now let me think.” Mr. Pieree, of course, did not know his Fenstock. Doubtless he thought he would get hold of just a chauffeur, whom he could bully or threaten into telling him all that happened on Friday night. But the very fact that Mr. Pierce was so eager to get hold of Fen- stock showed how close he was to the truth. And his passive siege of my house was evidence of his determination not to let go what he unquestionably regarded as his strongest suit. It has seemed impossible to get away without Pierce’s knowledge on the mission which grew more urgent every hour. But Fenstock’s horsesense had made possible the impossible. *“*Fenstock,” I said, ‘“‘you’ve been driving nearly twenty hours. Do you think you could make it twenty-four?” “Forty-eight, if you like, sir,” said the brave fellow. “I- want to get across the Chan- nel tenight. There’s a boat from Southampton at midnight. How about it?’’ “Simps,: sir,” said Fenstock. I believe he meant that it was sim- ple. “IT don’t want the man who’s pa- trolling the lane to know I've left the house. I don’t want him to know you're here. I don’t want anybody to know where I’m going. And I want to send a telegram. How about all that?’”’ Fenstock gg wr > “Annie said I. ihe telegram. ate telegram, tin’ her speak to the hia in e lane? He's sure to be curious about a tele gram “Good!’’ I exclaimed. “And while he’s nosey-parker- ing about the telegram, we can slip through the garridge, and I know a way across the fields to the woods—it’s really ‘shorter than the road. I should think that’s got it.” “It has, Fenstock. It’s what the Americans call ‘a cinch,’ I think. Now, when we get to Southampton, I'm no longer Mr. Allison. I am, well, let us say, Mr. Jones—Mr. Arthur Jones. If anything happens which you want to tell me before noon to- morrow, telegraph to A. Jones, Poste Restante, Paris.

There was just a chance of sending him off on a false chase. Fenstock’s notion of killing two birds with one stone was much better. With the pen in my hand I rejected sév- eral ideas. One was a message containing the name of Edderley. But that would probably be too patent a blind for Mr. Pierce, I thought of one with Edderléy’s Christian name, such as: “Tell Jim to look out for news.” Final- ly I decided. that some jumble which would appear to be a cipher was the best form. So when Fenstock came to tell me he had assembled the two bags in the garage, I called Annie and Mrs. Batting, and told them what 3 neat a she . 7 2 ws Onl Pe WOR SHIN ey wT through a gateway from the last | fleld on the hillside, he touched | my arm and gently urged me off } the path and into the thicket. | “We're being followed, sir,’ he \ whispered. “Will you sit down’ here and wait for me?

And I anted to make sure he wasn't n the way to my linhay.” “Ah!” said I. “Of course.” “So I follows him. And this is vyhat I can’t make out, sir.

But the funny thing that the person that lets him n is the chap that was second potman to Mr. Bardolph.” nai} “No, I know it don’t, sir. But, if I might say so, l’'ve been won- dering whether seeing Annie's telegram had anything to do with it.’’ That was certainly a new light. But why should the sight of a telegram to Wilby in Hull bring Pierce’s watcher to a _ keeper’s cottage in the middle of the wood to interview a footman from Woodbury Manor? I pondered the question while we came out of the drive and reached the main road beyond Wood End, walked.a few yards along it, and turned into a lane. I had not resolved it when Fenstock said: *“Here’s my linhay.”’ It was a shed beside a farm la- - porer’s cottage. “I'd better tell the girl, sir,” said Fenstock. “I won't be a minute.*’ He was as good as his word.

It lihreatened to upset some of my theories. . “You're sure it was the man in the lane?” I asked. | “As near as nothing, sir. Same build. Same sort of hat. Bowler hat.

In another two min- utes we were headed west for Southampton. And still I had not resolved the question. Fenstock gobbled up the miles. Haslemere in less than an hour was 40. per hour, and in hilly country. Petersfield twenty minutes later. Southampton in two hours from the start. We drove to the docks direct without stopping: im the town. And still I had not resolved the question, A forming in my mind. all. “Fenstock,;” said I, ‘‘we'll cut out the Bristol trip. I've got a notion that somebody should keep an eye on the little man you saw this evening and the footman from Woodbury Manor. What You’re That was about it, Fenstock?”’ “Do you mean my eye, sir?’’ “It’s for you to say, Fenstock.

I think it’s possible that Mr. Pierce may know some- thing about that footman. Now, they all think you've been away in the north and haven't come back. Can you leave them in that belief?”’ Fenstock hadn’t a particle of doubt that he could. I looked xt Fenstock’s excited eyes. They were the only symptom of excite- ment about him. To all other ap- pearance he was a wooden-stiff chauffeur. “You take a lot on trust from me, Fenstock,’’ said I. “Do I, sir? Perhaps it’s nat- ural.” “Can you do one thing more? Think of a way for me to get in touch if I should want you in a hurry “You mean—to meet you any- where with the car?’’ “Yes, mainly that. else.”” “IT think so,” said Fenstock, after a minute’s deliberation. “A very good pal of mine keeps a pub at Godalming—Bill Burch, at the Grey Goose Inn. I'll fix it with him. You telegraph anything you want to Burch, Grey Goose Inn, Godalming, and that'll be all right. Only, if I might say so, sir, supposing you want me to meet you at a channel port. it might be as well to have a code in case of accidents.” “Admirable!"’ I said. - “We'll have west coast ports instead.” We worked it out, Fenstock in a greasy pocketbook and I on the back of an envelope: Bristol for Dover, Cardiff for Folkstone, Swansea for Newhaven, ‘Milford for Southampton, -Runcorn for Weymouth, Fleetwood for Plym- outh. Then I wished Fenstock good- by, and told him to take care of himself. “Very good, sir,”” he said, and drove off as I turned to find the booking office and arrange for a berth on the steamer, if by chance there was one vacant. I booked through to Paris. A 7. + Or anything CHAPTER NINE. T Havre in the morning I had not yet resolved that question of Pierce and the footman and the man in the bowler hat. In fact, l slept so well that there had not been much time to think about it. I found my seat in the train, or- dered breakfast, and paced the platform waiting for the depar- ture. ~ I had taken three turns when I received a shock that caused my every nerve to prick. My name was being shouted down the plat- form. it had been Frenchified—— the accent pushed on, and a nasal ending. It sounded something like ‘‘Aleessong.”” But there was no doubt about it. A man in a blouse with a peaked cap on his head was walking down the train flourishing a telegram in a blue envelope in his hand and yelling at’ each window for Monsieur Aleessong. Suddenly there came into my ming what f bad saidito WPI. « *Reware the police!”’ instant I had thouaht of Fenstlet macs —but I had told Fenstock I was to be Mr: Arthur Jones. Fenstock was ruled out. It might be Wilby —but how had Wilby learned of my journey, unless. from Fen- stock? And Fenstock would hardly have dared—and if he had dared he would have told Wilby my nom de guerre. Yet I want- ed to see that telegram. All this in a flash a@s the man came to- ward me. And in a flash I stopped him. My French was not the best, but I could make it comprehensible if I tried hard. ‘“‘A telegram for Mr. Allison?’’ said I. “Yes, monsieur. Allison ?”’ “No,” I replied. “I’m. Mr. Arthur Jones, but 1. know.a Mr. Allison very well. Mr. Allison, of Bristol. An intimate friend. I have not seen him on the boat or on the train. If I might look?” The facteur seemed a little doubful, but he showed me envelope. It was addressed: lison, Boat Train, Havre.’’. “I could perhaps.help. y8u_if I said I, making a, des- - rather bored wit “Mr: Allison, and he might think this a way “ing.

Must see you. Flying over. Meet me St. Lazare station under clock in great hall noon today. I folded up the telegram, put it back in the envelope, and hand- ed it to the facteur. “Pardon,” I said, “I know nothing of it. It must be another Mr. Allison.”’ Five francs were nothing at the rate of exchange prevailing, but they were evidently more than the hard-working man had expected to get for his labor of the morn- He said: “‘“Merc’ bien, mon- sieur,”’ put the thing in hig, wal- let and marched away shouting no more. I took my seat and, in due course, was called to break- fast. This was quite obviously, Mr. Pierce being clever. Wilby had had nothing to do with the tele- gram, for he was quite ignorant of my intention to go to Paris. Nobody knew of it save Fenstock —and Mr. Pierce. How Mr. Pierce had divined it or got hold of it I could not imagine then. But the telegram showed me two things: Mr. Pierce had decided that a telegram from Wilby in reply to mine was a natural sequence, and he had telephoned to the police at Hull to send it: Mr. Pierce was determined that where I went he or somebody on his behalf should £0, too.’ It was veritably diamond cut diamond. I had two days to do the thing I wanted to do and a considerable part of Europe to cross. I did not mean to be fol- lowed by Mr. Pierce’s representa- tive, however fast he might fly. How to evade him must be my study on the way to Paris. Tempting as it was to speculate about the picture which Wilby was guarding, I must dismiss that from my mind and concentrate on the business of conveying a Warn- ing to Edderley. The Andalusian, on her leisurely way south, was due at Lisbon on Thursday eve- ning and would sail again on Fri- day evening. Edderley would be quite unaware of what had hap- pened since he sailed, and, if he picked up news at Lisbon,- might be tempted to do something rash —such as telegraphing to me. If I could reach Lisbon by Thursday night——— The. program had been clear in my mind before Mr. Pierce butted in. Now, if I was not very care- ful I should be dragging a detec- tive with me, to the undoing of Edderley. I came to my conclusion after half an hour of unseeing gazing at the fiying landscape. The train would stop at Mantes, and Mr. Arthur Jones would alight from it there, so that Mr. Pierce’s emissary might arrive in the grand -hal! at St. Lazarre at noon and find nobody awaiting him. In the meantime, Mr. Arthur Jones would be on his way south , in’ the “fastest ‘car’ he céald et’ *: with’ the "most *reckteds: * driverc Mantes could produce, and if he reached Orleans in front of ‘he Bordeaux express, he would keep in front of it—even as far as Bordeaux, if necessary. He reck- oned that he might be in Bor- deaux, with luck by 10 o’clock that night, and that he might then hope to reach Lisbon by Thursday night or Friday morning with Mr. Pierce none the wiser. It was very hard going. The garage at Mantes was not partic- ularly well equipped. for Mantes is a small town. It had one fast car, but an open car—and mon- sieur might not care about a long journey without protection from the weather. - Monsieur, however. asked only to .be provided with car, driver “0 rugs.

We had started from Mantes at 10 o'clock; we were In Bordeaux by 6! We actually caught up the morning train from Paris to Bayonne. I was able to settle with the fury at the helm, book on to Bayonne, and catch up two hours from the skirts of chance. Thereafter it was a question only of trains, which in the part of the world lying south of the Pyrenees will not be hurried. I got out at the Central Station at Lisbon at midnight on Thursday. There had been two argumepsta- tions about the vises on my pass- port, which was more than a year old and had been at the bottom of a drawer most of the time. But it is wonderful to see what can be done by a little lying, a little will- ‘ful misunderstanding and a good deal of treasury paper. . The Eng- lish pound note at that time would buy 95 Portuguese dollars, > * > ° CHAPTER TEN. é‘¢T HAD been in Lisbon only once before, but recalled enough of it to be able to pick up my bag and find my own way to the hotel in the Rocio Square, not far away. The great city was in full feather at midnight, with vast crowds in the square, every cafe buzzing with customers, and strings of cars waiting for the theaters to discharge their audiences half an hour later. The square seemed full of light and bustle and noise. : But I knew that if | went down to the docks on the Tagus I should find still- ness and silence. The Andalin- sian would be tied up to her berth, with a couple of Portucuese sentries at her gangway, and everybody on board would be asleep. So Senhor Jones, of London, entered his name in the hotel book——the need for producing a passport having gone—and slept with one eye open until 6 in the morning, when he was called, ac- cording to his orders, took a cup of coffee, paid his bill and carried his bag out into Lisbon. The universal vehicle of Lisbon is the tramecar. The taxi seems hardly to be known and the ome- nibus not to exist But the trame- cars run everywherc—hundreds of little toy things on a 2-foot gauge. Last night all Lisbon had seemed to be in Don Pedro's square under the electric lights, This morning all Lisbon seemed to be traveling on tramcars down toward the river, through the no- ble gateway leading into the Praca do Commereio, and it was one of these that I boarded to reach the Apollonia dock. Within half an hour I stood on the quay looking up at the black side of the Anda- lusian. The Portuguese sentries had gone. There were dockers run- ning up and down the gangway. The winches hauled in cargo from lighters lying in the Tagus on the starboard side of the ship. No- body took any notice of me. I walked on board and stopped the first eon steward | fia r9% Kpow, By, Diviein 42335 . He did. i. tact, he had just taken tea to Mr. Harrison and Mr. Harrison had gone down to his bath. His room? It was No. 39,. promenade deck, starboard side. The steward looked at my bag. Was I going on @m the ship? Should he direct me to the purser? No, said I; my visit was to Mr. Harrison, a friend of mine, and if I could be shown to the prome- nade deck I would wait for him. Thus Edderley, coming up the companionway three steps at a time, holding up the skirts of his dressing gown and whistling mer- rily, nearly fell backward over the stairs when he saw me. “Great Scott!"

bt ND if it ever does go A through,” the old man would say passionately— “if we ever do get that route put by here and mail coming every day to our very door in a Gov- ernment wagon, I tell you what; the first day that wagon comes down this road I shut up the door of my shop,and I walk up this lane and I open the box and I take out my Boston paper and sit right down on the grass here with my back up against that elm tree and I read that paper throvgh from the first headline clean ov to the want ads—and let anybody stop me that can! That’s what I calculate to do, and I'll do it, too, —if it’s 10 o’clock in the fore- noon!” Joel Ames Edwards could not remember when he had first heard Grandfather Alonzo Ames talk hopefully about the mail route Ghat had not yet come. Joel was @leven now. From the age of six be had spent all of every summer @n his grandfather’s farm. All that time he had heard his grand- father speak of the day when the mail would come along their road in a Government wagon. When the old man touched on this subject a trace of pardonahle exaggeration came into his speech. “To our very door,” was his in- exact phrase. The mail would ac- tually be deposited in a box on a post at the edge of the road; and grandmother would be the one to step forth from the side door and peer into the box. Joel could see her doing this, her blue apron thrown up over her head if it was Training. Grandfather Ames built wagons. Down the lane through the orch- ard, in the valley traversed by the brook from the pond, there was a wheelwright shop, with power from a waterwheel at the dam, and ten steps from it was the tiny blacksmith shop. Grandfather Ames built wagons out of oak grown on wooded acres of his own and out of iron hammered to the solidity of his own idea] on his own anvils with hammers that he had also made. Every afternoon at 10 minutes of 5 he stopped his operations. harnessed gray Dolly into the democrat wagon and set out for the village to get—with whatever kitchen provisions were on crandmother’s list—the mail. Joel always went with his grandfather on this ride. It was three miles and seventeen rods from the curb of the well house to the grain platform of Fred V. Jenkins (hay, grain, feed, hard- ware, provisions, general mer- chandise — postoffice). Grand- father had measured it more than once with a piece of white flannel tied to the rim of his near wheel. The total for 50. years ran into miles—‘‘more than a small for- tune if you had it in dollars,” Alonzo Ames would say. The express wagon, which they took on the days when sacks of grain had to be brought, was older——1878. And the heavy blue farm wagon, used for rough work on the place, that was the oldest of all. 1873: and in. its fresh paint and newly set tires the new- est looking. It was not, though, the oldest of grandfather’s extant creations. One day when he and Joel drove on an errand that took them along the back road they met a battered, paintiess and down-at-heels farm wagon wabbling noisily behind a cadaverous horse, the seedy driver of which mumbled greetings through a tobacco stained beard. Grandfather scrutinized Tit from narrow gray eyes. “I built that in 1867,’" he said when it had passed. And after a sil- ence: “Joe Littlepage never did take any care of things—any more than of himself.” At Jenkin’s. grandfather would do the errands on his list. Joel would scamper across the road to play with the minister’s two sons unl they saw, at the center of its moving cloud of dust, the mail wagon posting over the hill into the main street of the village. He would then scuttle back to the store because he liked, when the sacks were opened behind the postoffice partition of glassed boxes, to see the mail pop into this compartment and that, with a special eye to his grandfather's No. 31 and a specially jealous catch of the breath whenever a letter or journal apparently aimed at this target shot instead into 29 or 33 Joel was not the only one who experienced a tension during these few minutes or who was fascinated by the speed with which Mis’ Stella Harcourt per- formed these familiar motions. the out- be] . THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY. APRIL 27, 1930. LL A A A CT Te eT a A ee -—— ee ee A Number Four of the Best Short Stories, Series of 1930, Nominated by Hewitt H. Howland, Editor of the Century Magazine. The talk, at other times animated, dwindled to murmurs. Every one stood fm a huddle about the delivery wicket. Women who had come in to make purchases gave their orders self-consciously and slipped out as if they were being stared at. It was a species of rite, this sorting of the mail. When it was completed and the wicket shot up the atmosphere changed on the instant. A dis- comfort suddenly melted. It was like the change of pitch on getting out of Sunday morning meeting. “Well, my boy, | guess we can go along home now, can’t we?” grandfatber would say. as if it were Joel who had kept the expe- dition waiting. A yoke of oxen couldn't have started his grand- father home until the mail was in. Ordinarily the mail was on time for all practical purposes. In the democrat wagon. jogging down the main street to the Burnt Swamp turn, grandfather wonld edge the Boston paper open with his right hand, the reins lying in his left, and look at the weather predictions with a judicious after glance at the sky. And if it were a Presidential year or there was an important antitrust suit going on or sOme great public disaster had left yesterday's reader in sus- pense he would pass the reins over to Joel and let him hold them for perhaps a mile, though with half an eye on the road. Grandfather was one of those Olympian. in- comprehensible beings who not only read the editorial page complete but could actually see sense in political cartoons. It was grandfather's theory that the newspaper should be taken in by Joel and put by the two-burner reading lamp and that the letters should stay in his own coat pocket (the coat lying on the wagon seat) until supper. ‘‘Let all things be done decently and in order,”’ he would quote. Grand- mother, on the other hand, want- ed to know whether there were letters; and if there were any for her she wanted them. She would go out to the barn, always ask the same definite questions, always receive the same noncom- mittal answers from erandfather and end by fishing the letters out of the pocket for herself. Thus she got her letters and grand- father got the satisfaction of air- ing his theory once more—includ- ing for good’ measure the dictum that women who always resolved a newspaper into its sections in- | | ihe ,* . r — = (Xa } | ie ‘mother oe. stead of reading it im one piece weren't fitted by mature to cope with anything less than a bound book. 7. o om © FTER supper grandfather sat down by the reading lamp in his great easy chair and folded the Boston paper neatly open at the editorial page. And then Joel and Martha Ames, the boy of eleven and the wisp of a grand- mother, suddenly became of ex- actly an age and put in an hour giggling together. For Grand- father Ames no sooner began to read than he began to go to sleep. He went to sleep with greater and greater frequency as the hours passed—his eyes glazing as he stared at the print, his head and his lids drooping simultaneously, until in the end his head nodded low enough to snap him awake with a jerk. Joel and his grand- thought it immensely funny. And Alonzo Ames never minded this. It was the one oec- casion in life on which Joel had dared laugh overtly at the one living man whom he perfectly feared and loved to fear. Grand- father Ames would smile a sheep- ish and kindly smile. “Well, my boy, I guess it looks as if I'd gone about fur enough for one day.”’ And before Joe! was asleep in the great carved four-poster up- stairs he would hear grandfather wind the shelf clock in the sitting room—twelve burring turns with the key shaped like a crank, worn smooth by 50 years of the same thumb. Joel saw why it was that men would sometimes drive eight and ten miles to get Alonzo Ames to file a saw for them and be ac- tually pleased if they had to wait half the morning forit. It wasn’t altogether the manifest superior- ity of the work done by a man who couldn’t bear to do anything with mere average competence. That such a man could be left wanting R. F. D. the way his grandfather did—that any gov- ernment on earth could know that he wanted it and still not break a leg to give it to him—-was more than Joel could get through his ll-year-old head. One night toward the middle &f August there was excitement. Joel and his grandfather had been late starting for the postoffice and it was dusk when, in the mid- die of Burnt Swamp, they met Abijah Ray driving home in his buggy. | ‘é ELL, she’s come!” Abijah sang out in his high, throaty whine. “Got my notice right here’’—he slapped a coat pocket—‘and you're a-goin’ to git yourn, ‘Lon. They’re all a-readin’ of ’em back there.’””’ He gestured with his whip in the di- rection of the village. Granfather looked at him with a kind of rigidity—the look that made people translate their ex- citement into such diction as would entitle a man of dignity and sense to recognize that some- thing had been said. “The mail route,” Abijah am- plified. “The R. F. D. She's a-comin’ sure, this time. Tells you what kind of a box to get. *n’ where to locate her, ‘n’ all about it.”’ Grandfather gave a hardly audi- ble whistle. Then his excitement partly wilted and he asked: “Does it say when, ’Bige? When's the point interests me. A promise from the Govérnment is like a promise from a woman —not much good except she hames the day. I’ve heard from the Government afore now, ’Bije, on one account and another, and I sometimes think the Government goes on the principle of Neill Gillson that was comin’ to fix my chimney. He was comin’ the Monday, and when I caught bim on Wednesday and~-taxed him with it he says: ‘Wall, I kind o’ figgered ‘twas a mean man that wouldn't even promise.’ ”’ Abijah Ray scratched his head slowly. “No, it don’t say when, egg- sackly,”” he admitted, “‘but it says we'll be given notice when they're ready to begin.”’ ™~ Grandfather had recovered his casualness. “Oh, well, then it don’t mean a thing,” he assured the other. “You can set your heart easy, "Bije. I guess Burdick is just plannin’ on bein’ reelecte@ and gettin’ out some campaign litera- ture.”” Burdick was the Con- gressman of that district. “If I was you I wouldn’t lose no sleep over it till they name the day. S'ling 'Bije.’’ He clucked to gray Dolly. “Some folks just naturally be- lieve everything they’re told.” he said to Joe) after a while. Never- theless he coaxed Dolly to a pace that made her turn her head back several times, as if her feelings were burt. At the postoffice grandfather did not open the long, thick envelope which had come, under the Government’s frank, into his box; but he did join the group of his country neighbors who were reading their identical inclosures to each other with a fusillade of questions and specula- tions. Also he borrowed Fred Jenkins’. mail order catalog, a vol- ume endlessly fascinating to Joel because of its illustrated pages of fishing tackle, firearms and boats. * *e"@ @®& HAT night grandfather spread out the mail order catalog by the lamp, and when he had conned it he got out a quire of ruled writ- ing paper and with inexorable and slow method indited, signed, seal- ed, directed and stamped a letter. To grandmother’s legitimate curi- osity his replies were neatly evasive. But Joel, after he had heard the clock wound, heard. the rumble of Grandfather Ames’ voice from the kitchen bedroom, punctuated now and then with in- tervals which would mean that Martha Amés was being meekly vocal. And ten days later came the resplendent new aluminum-paint- ed mail box with a door at one end, a red signal flag to hoist and the word “AMES” in buld black capitals. Grandfather did not open the package at the store. But when at home it was un- wrapped he set it in the glow of the reading lamp and both he and grandmother spent so much time looking at it that once more the old man forgot to put on his usual entertainment. And once more Joel lay awake to the rumble of his grandfather’s voice. He awoke to early morning light and the most magical sound of his young world: the clink- eclink-clink-clink, musical and me- tallic, of the waterwheel penetrat- ing the rush of the unchained wa- ter that drove it. On this sunny morning he aiswered the magnetic call in’ two garments, with the conscientious pause at the back kitchen sink for dabs at his teeth and hair before he fled barefoot down the orchard path, the dew cold on his toes. He had to lie prone for a moment on the plank bridge across the brook trench and peer back under, where in the redoubled rush of shadowy water from the opened gates the small mud pickerel struggled to keep from making tailway. But it was a shorter moment than usual. Running on, he came to where his grandfather stood by the huge power grindstone at the side of the shop, putting onto the newest, shiniest and sharpest of his axes an edge that was nothing less than sacramental. “Hello, my boy. Up so soon, eh?” It was the fashion of his instinctive delicacy to ignore. the spell which his water-run ma- chinery and its noises had always exerted upon his grandson. He never twitted younger folk with their shy enthusiasms. “Well, my boy, shall we shut the gate?” he said at last. This ‘‘we”’ was the special dispensation that, perhaps three times in 4 summer, let Joel touch true sub- limity. He darted into the back shop, flung himself over the lathe bench and seized the long handle that projected diagonally frem the wheel: house into the far cor- ner of’ the room: ' ‘As he pulled it ‘back and forth’ in slow strokes, | closing inch by ratcheted inch the heavy water gate at the flume, the clink-clink-clink-clink, of the wheel slowed down—slowed down —stopped. There was a definite quality in the sudden silence, through which he heard, from the front shop, the silken-and-velvet whisper of the ax blade taking its ultimate polish from the whet- stone that always lay on the tool bench. For what? It was clear at breakfast that grandmother knew all about it. Presently she drew Joel out into the back kitchen and, from the full cookie jar, a huge erock, thrust upon him a great dotible handful of yesterday’s her- mits. “Thére, Joel, you'll want to be going along with your grand- father and I want you should take these.”” And he had to find his coat for pocket room. His grandfather had trundled the farm wagon out the sliding door into the yard and removed its seat. He was harnessing Dolly on the barn floor. Now he backed her skillfully between the shafts and buckled the traces. The ax and crosscut saw were lying on the floor of the wagon, the head of the ax wrapped ‘in a burlap sack. Grandfather had

With the reins, he climbed in himself, over the wheel. Dolly stood; and the tongue-tied Joel, standing at the corner of the well house, felt his heart begin to thump with a kind of small ache. Grandfather Ames looked at him, grave, unsmiling. ‘Well; my boy?” he said. Joel snatched up his bulging coat from the well curb. “Oh, can 1? Can I go?” He climbed in, hung his coat on another of stood behind grandfather, bracing himself for the lurch of the start, They were off down the lane, Dolly holding back against the grade and letting them delicately over the thank-you-marms. HE wood road descended, be- coming mossy ani boulder- strewn, so that the farm wagon tilted crazily. Then they pulled up a sharp rise into clear and level woodland, bore in a wide curve to the north and left the wood road for a sunny clearing set about with oak and maple sec- ond growth, older, grandfather remarked, than the farm wagon of 1873. They drove across it now to- ward a gleam of blue and sun sparkle which Joel could make out through ‘the fringe of forest. And suddenly he noticed a single straight oak standing twenty yards from the margin of the cleared space. Last winter’s cut- ting had gone around without touching it. By this oak Alonzo Ames stop- ped Dolly and the wagon of 1873: and his silent upward scrutiny verified calculations from data that were, to an 11-year-old grandson, invisible. Satisfied, he clambered out over the wheels and snapped the hitching weight. to Dolly’s bridle. os me the ax, my boy,” he said. And then, as Joel did so, unwrapping tt, “You better stand here, I guess.” He indicated a place to which his chips could not fily—redoubtable chips, edged al- most like the ax blade itself and of a weight and speed to stun. The old man braced Wis feet apart, settled into his stance and swung the ax—a free, leisurely, loose joined motion that had be- hind it the 2710 pounds’ weight of a terrific bodily efficiency. The stroke pealed and echoed from that sap-filled butt and among the August foliage, but with a more muffled decisiveness than if it had been winter when trees were leaf- less and the wood brittle with cold; then an ax spoke out with an inflection like the crack of a rifle. Joel watched with fascinat- ed eyes the incision itself. Each massive chip that came out raised into slight relief the line of its cleavage, a precise demarcation of the blade on gleaming wood, and each next stroke erased this line and raised another farther in. Always, it seemed, there must be one of these welts left: there was no possible way to smooth down the last of them. But Joel had no more than formulated this thought when the last of them vanished; his grandfather paused, and the boy suddenly realized that the two planes of the incision had met in an angle exact and sharp half way through the great butt. His grandfather was not even breathing deeply. . * oe ITH hardly a shift of his po- sition Alonzo Ames began to send a wedge of daylight into the tree from the other side’ to meet the first. Joel moved over slight- ‘ly behind him. The chips flew out in a curving stream. Joel’s eyes blurred in the effort to trace the progress of the cut; every one of the rain of strokes changed its shape. It was axmanship to make a boy think that his grandfather, had he been so minded, could have sawed the tree through at its butt and then chopped it down above the cut in the seconds be- fore it would have fallen. Suddenly Grandfather Ames stepped two paces back from his work and stood leaning on the ax. Joel darted a quick look-up. The top branches waved, quivering across a small are of sky, paused ona speck of fluffy cloud, waved again and reeled into a wide sink- ing curve of gathered speed. Then, an instant of superb concussion from the midst of a rending crash of upper branches borne down, and grandfather's quieting voice, “Whoa, Dolly—-whoa, mare!” The butt had come free. A flick of the ax knocked off the row of splinters left across the center of the stump. It was flat as a plate, with the one thin faint ridge straight across its center where the two cuts had met. With his folding pocket rule grandfather measured off nine feet from the butt and nicked the OCRew oi? to FOR of) + IX) ml Date Os _ es Ri i 6a; — bark with his ax. With the cross- cut saw he and Joel teok off this nine-foot section. Grandfather backed the farm wagon up to it, heaved the butt up until it rested on the tail of the body and slid the great log in. It was a full year before Joel deciphered the meaning of their expedition. That it had to his grandfather a kind of ceremonial purport had been implicit in the very air of the occasion. Back at the shop the old man had squared off the butt of the tree with the circular saw, meas- ured and marked off a square cen- tered on the heart of the log, measured and marked off a simi- lar but smaller square at the other end of the nine-foot piece, set the guides on the sawing table and run the saw four times lengthwise through-the log, trim- ming off bark and pulp wood and leaving a nicely tapered rough obelisk. But this he shoved up on to the strong tie beams under the roof of the back room where the choicest of his wagon timber lay seasoned or seasoning; and there, for all Joel knew to the contrary, he forgot it. The boy, with all the relatives who could come, was at the farm for Thanksgiving; and again, alone, for the week after Christ- mas. Then he had four more days there in mid-February when grandfather was hauling wood across the ice: on one of them they burned up the brush pile to which they had added the waste of the oak tree. 7 7 UNE came and Joel, grown like a weed and with another year of civics and geography behind him, picked up the mail wagon at Chiswick station, rode the five miles to the village, threw his suit case on the democrat wagon at Jenkin’s grain platform and took possession of the right end of the seat. And there he was sitting when his grandfather came out of the postoffice with the Boston paper and some letters. His grandmother was standing on the porch watching the bend. “Well, Joel,” she said when she kissed him, “I filled the cookie jar this morning.”’ It was all just as it had been every year, just as he wanted it always to be. After supper he rambled about the place by the last hour of day- light. One of the first spots he visited was the back room of the shop. Grandfather’s rough sawed oak obelisk was still in its place. Joel saw by the remains of the pencil marks on the wood that it had been. given a quarter turn since iast he had noticed. At the beginning of the dry August following Alonzo Ames began to complain of feeling poorly. Even on cold days, at his, work in the shop, he would fre- quently pause to wipe a beaded forehead with a blue bandanna. At meals in the kitchen Joel noticed that big drops would form one after another at his wrists, run down to his elbows as he plied knife and fork from his low rush chair and tumble to the floor, making a little darkened spot on the maple boards at each side of his place. Several times the boy overheard, in grandmother’s mild expostulatory voice, the word “doctor,” and each time his grandfather was ever so slightly testy and short with her, so that she soon relapsed into a lifelong habit of keeping her worries to herself. Toward the close of a suffocat- ingly hot afternoon, during the last hour of which Joel had seen the blue bandanna more fre- quently than ever, grandfather closed the shop half. an hour earlier than usual and plodded up the lane to the house so very slowly that it seemed as if it had been for this that he had allowed the extra time. Instead of turn- ing into the barn he crossed the porch to the sitting room door and went in. Martha Ames ap- peared with frightened eyes at the doorway to the kitchen. **I feel kind of poorly, Marthy,”’ said grandfather. ‘I don’t know how it comes I mind the hot weather so much more’n I- ever did. Guess I'll have to lie down a minute before I harness up.’’ He stretched himself ont supine on the hair-cloth lounge by the three windows. Grandmother made no com- ment. He relaxed and closed his eyes, and she went back to the kitchen. When nearly an hour later she heard grandfather be- ginning to stir she hurried to him. “*Lon,”’ she said, “I want you shouldn’t do any more today. Here’s Joel wants to walk up to the village. He's going to fetch the mail. And the other things— we don’t need” Grandfather was on his feet now, swaying a little, With her first words he had sunk back for a moment on the pillow, but her mgption of the mail seemed. to goad him. : began to pull “INO, no,’ he said WItM severity. “Now you just hold your hosses, Marthy. When I get so’s I can’t harness Dolly “and drive three miles and 17 rods for the mail I'll be older’n I be now.” He stopped to the side door, his hand on the latch, and turned. “I tell you what, though,” he said with emphasis, “if that mail route of theirs ever gets put through and we have a Government wagon bringing the mail every day—to our very door—I don't care if I never see the inside of Fred Jenk- ins’ store for weeks at a time. “And [ tell you one other thing,” he added. ‘The first day I see that mail wagon come down this road I shut up the doors of that shop and walk up that lane to the box and take out that Bos- ton paper o’ mine and sit right down on the grass there with my back up against the tree, good and comfortable, and read that paper through from murders to advertisements——before any wom- enfolk get it all sorted to pieces and scattered round the house,” he added bitterly. “And I'd just like to see any one stop me.” Joel saw his grandmother shake her head to herself in a sad sort of bafflement. And that was the night of the great tidings. They were late in getting start- ed and when, as once before, they met Abijah Ray in the midst of Burnt Swamp, they saw that he had begun to brandish his arms wildly. “Well, she’s a-named the day!” he yelled in his throaty whine even before the wagons were abreast. “Well, you needn't act as though you'd invented the whole mail system,’ Alonzo Ames flung after him. And then to Joel: “It’s always the empty wagon makes the most racket.” In the postoffice there was the same vociferous group, exclaiming over a second batch of franked envelopes. The first delivery to route No. 4 would be on Thurs- day, the 14th, and with the formal personal notices was a duplicate of the earlier printed instructions which by this time even Joel knew by heart—the box to be of such- and-such a type and size, mounted at so many inches’ height, not more nor less than so many inches from the side of the road. And, yes, grandfather's notice was in his box, along with the Boston paper. On the drive home and through the belated supper the old man still breathed a little queerly and continued to produce the blue ban- danna, but he had forgotten that he was feeling poorly. e . . HE next morning promptly after breakfast he led Joel back, without a word said on either side, to the subject of sub- jects. When the boy appeared in the front shop a few minutes be- hind his grandfather the nine- foot obelisk was laid out on the bench with elaborate and exact pencil markings and grandfather had the blade out of the largest of his planes and was giving it a final touch of the whetstone. He planed all four of its sur- faces down to his marks, the long shavings curling over his right hand on the knob of the tool. Then he laid the post out on two sawhorses and he and Joel sand- papered it to a satiny smoothness. After that he carried it into the back room and arranged it on the bed of the turning-lathe, tighten- ing the clamps at each end. “Well, my boy—think we can run the wheel just a leetle while?”’ It was six weeks since they had had any rain to speak of and the pond was low. For two weeks now his grandfather had been turning away all work that needed waterpower. Joel vaulted over the bench and the long handle back and forth. There was a gurgle and rush of water as inch by inch the heavy gate came open. The wheel began to turn, the main shaft to revolve. The whole in- side of the shop beeame a whirr of machinery, and through it came the clink-clink, clink-clink _of the turning wheel, accelerat- ing to its full speed. Grand- father forced a broad cowhide belt from one shining drum to an- other, using a wagon spoke. Then the old man pulled a handle aitd at once the nine-foot post was whirling on its axis so fast that it appeared as a round column, Grandfather laid’ a chisel of’ special shape against the rest and, calculating the angle _ nicely, pressed it against the wood ata marked point: some seven inches from the smaller end—in and in’ amid tiny flakes of chips that rat- tied like hail against the tin ‘shield. He moved thé chisel to- ward the right, relaxing his pres- sure; then still farther te the ee ee ee ee ee a ee Te eee right, leasimg More OF the weilgnat of his body against it. And the smaller end of the wooden shaft turned into a ball of the atmost perfection of roundness under the magic of this freehand drawing done in spinning oak. “I guess that’s about all the water we can take, my boy,” said Alonzo-Ames. “The sandpaper’! do the rest—not so quick mebbe.”’ Joel leaped to the handle and shut the watergate. A little later they left the post on its pair of saw- horses, the upper haPf in its firet coat of white lead, the lower blackly tarred. That was Wednesday. A week from tomorrow! On Saturday, grandfather returned to the post and gave it the second coat. On Sunday, for the first time since the Saturday blizzard of 11 winters before, he did not go to church. Joel went though, on foot—to tell Dr. Angell that his grandmother needed him for his grandfather. Alonzo Ames had not even tried to get out of bed that morning and Joel and his grandmother had managed his morning chores. It was, said the old doctor, more than a touch of malaria. He left some medicine, careful directions and a clinical thermometer. He would be back tomorrow. On Monday he said that on no account was Alonzo Ames to set foot out of bed for at least three days after his temperature was normal, whenever that might be. And—he would be back tomorrow. “But, doctor,” said the old n, with the querulousness of one who has had a long time to forget what it is to be ill, ‘“‘Thursday & “Tell yourself the world is coming to an end Wednesday mid- night,”” said Dr. Angell dryly. An hour later Martha Ames said. “Your grandfather wants to speak to you, Joel. Don’t let him talk much.” The boy went to the door of the kitchen bedroom. His grandfather smiled at him from the pillow, but he looked, somehow, shockingly wearied and wasted and his grand- son had a fleeting impression that whole weeks of illness had tram- pled him in the two days since Saturday. “Something I wish you’d do for me, my boy,” said grandfather. “This touch of malary—be all right tomorrow. But we must have the paint dry in _ time, mustn't we? You put on the third coat. Post’s right there on the sawhorse—you know. Pot of white lead in the corner. Mix it up good—take you longer than the painting, if you do it right.” “Yes, grandpa,” said Joel, ‘I know just how to do it. Tl do it the very best I can.” He was off like a shot. E went for the mail on foot. That night after supper his grandmother tiptoed to him and said, “Your grandfahter wants to know if you got the post painted, Joel. I think he'd like best for you to tell him. But don’t let him talk much, if you can help hg Joel went again to the bedroom door. “I painted the post, grand- pa,” he said shyly. “I thought it looked pretty good—not as good as what you would do, of course, but——_—”’ “Thank you, my boy,” said Alonzo Ames, and Joel could see him smiling feebly from the pili- low in the dimness. There was a brooding oppres- sion upon the house, with its mas- ter flat on his back for the first time in 40 years. But Tuesday, in spite of one chill, Alonzo Ames seemed a great deal better. And when, Wednesday, Joel went che third time for the mail, he re- ported to Dr. Angell that grand- father’s temperature had been normal all day. ‘‘Well, tell him not to forget that extra vacation in bed,”’ said the doctor. “I'll stop Friday and you let me know if you want me before.’’ At the first gray of Thursday, in the thick of a dream of queerly babbling voices, Joel came awake to the discovery that he was being shaken——as violently, it seemed, as his grandmother's frail strength could manage. “Joel, wake up—wake uD, Joel,” she was saying between shakes. He sat up and rubbed his eyes. Martha Ames, in a quilted dressing gown, was wring- ing her hands and moaning. “Oh, Joel, your grandfather tej Joel's first confused thought, so unnerving to him was this aban- dobnment to distress, was that his eegrandfather had died in the night. ‘But she was tugging at his wrist now, sobbing the while. ‘Look, Joel, look!”’ Alonzo Ames, in brown overalls and jumper was out on the lawn under the giant elm. Beside him was a wheelbarrow filled with tools and on the grass lay the oak post, the shaft and surmounting ball vivid against the grass like a 6 ce eee nari Lesengp rages Mie cee: mallee Meare 12 pirch stem among the pines. From a circle of lawn at the very edge of the road he had cut the turf, and this turf was neatly piled at the foot of the tree. The old man was driving a spade into the brown earth that he had iIiaid bare. “Go, Joe!” He was half way down the creaking stairs in his two gar ments when it fiashed into his mind that his feet were not very well equipped for the tussle that was coming. He ran back and slipped on, without stockings, his toughest shoes. His grandfather, shoveling earth and stones into a pile by the roadside, flung a mere glance — his shoulder without paus- ng. “Let me do it, grandpa.” Joel begged; and again, “Come, grand pa—let me take the shovel.” No answer. “Won't you go lie down, grandpa? Just a Ift- tle while? You know Dr. Angell said—and grandma, she's.” His grandfather wheeled on him with so stern a forbearance that Joel knew, with sinking heart, that there was no hope; that there never had been any hope. If the old man had raged at him, bellowed or even stopped to phrase an argument, there might have been a dim chance to persuade or cajole him. But no one in his senses ever tried to pit himself against Alonzo Ames in the obstinacy of this frozen quietude. “My boy,” he said, one foot on the spade, ready for the next stroke “‘you better tell your grandmother we'll be wantin’ breakfast come 7 o'clock. And I guess we'll all be needin’ to save our breath to cool our porridge.” ee drove the spade in with final- ty. ; * + o . HEN grandfather had got bés post hole down 2 feet it r into the corner of a ledge. The sounding which he had taken with a crowbar had. by black luck, missed this obstruction by an inch or two. “My boy,’ said grandfather, “you know where the drilis aré? Get me the longest inch-and-e- half one.”’ For the first time in his lifé Joel Ames Edwards stood come fronting his grandfather in dumb inaction in the face of a definite request. “Grandpa,” he said, “couldn't we—couldn’t you—set the post just a couple of inches farther this way—just against the point of the rock? Couldn't you, grandpa?’’ There was an intensity of re buke in the way his grandfather gazed at him then. Then cone science, the workmanship of 60 years was focused in it, a life- time’s scorn of cheap and tricky makeshifts. “‘I don’t seem to be s0 young and spry as what I was once,” he said, mildly. “I thought mebbe you could fetch the drfil faster’n I could.” Three minutes later Joel wag holding the long drill near its top, giving it a fraction of a turn after each stroke of the sledge wielded by his grandfather, amazed that the old man could swing it at all, even more amazed to find that he hadn't the smallest apprehension for his own hands, which a mis- calculation of an inch would have crushed to bloody pulp. His grandfather measured the quantity of black powder, tamped it and the wadding in with the fuse carefuly arranged, and piled on timbers and an old carpet, When Joel leaped back into the reek of exploded gunpowder and pulled the remaining timbers aside, he saw that the corner of the ledge had come away cleanly in one great triangular boulder. He flung himself upon it savagely and desperately and tugged until it seemed as if his arms were com- ing out of their shonider sockeis. He was all but sobbing. “There, there, my boy," said the deep voice behind and above him. “Easy does it.” Alonzo Adams thrust the crowbar deep into the crack and put some of his weight on it. Nothing happened. He re- laxed himself for a second of prep- aration. Then he .put all the force eof his 200 pounds and the stil greater leverage of his will into one effort that was like an explo- sion of muscle following the ex- plosion of powder. Joe) heard, with a rending of earth and elm roots, another elemental noise that seemed to come from some deep hellow within his grand- father—a tearing, muffled grunt, part relief, and, it might be, part pain. The boulder lay free. With four blows of the sledge he re- duced it to a wheelbarrow load of splinters. Grandmother called them in to breakfast and, to Joel's relief, he Centinued on Page 16, Column 2.

What a wreck! Splintered windshield, cross-eyed lensless lamps, fenders tied on wéth hay wire, a dragging running board, one rear axle jacked up on a carpenter’s saw- horse, and a rubber patchwork of tire and casing on the sidewalk near the belabored rim. o > > ‘THE CURSE of the modern taxicab,” I explained, “is that it lacks a sufficient cubical content of wholesome atmosphere. It is a germ trap contrived to contaminate any normal human being compelled to breathe through its bacilli infested interior.

He was now busy stretching the tire over the rim. An old white-haired darky and several urchins had be- gun to gather around. Andy was annoyed. - — “Uncle Jimmy,”--he turned to the white-haired old man who leaned on a cane, ‘“‘is all dese kids youahs?’’ “No, no, Andy, all my chilluns has growed up and got dey own chilluns now.” , “Den I wants all you kids not kin to Uncle Jimmy to beat it,” said Andy, scowling and bugging out his eyes toward one little tot in kinky braids. “Dis ain’t no free show. Go on befoah I calls de cop. You is blockin’ de sidewalk.” derby and shoved it back on his head about a quarter of an inch. The lady dropped a momentary glance on Amos and the briefest possible nod, then floated on. Amos put his foot inside the rim and gave the tire a tug with a flat piece of steel. “Andy sho’ am crazy "bout dat woman. He was chuckling. “He talk about her in his sleep.” “Amos, will you quit messin’ in my private affairs? Dis ain’t none 0’ yo’ business, an’ I ask you now to keep yo’ mouf shut.” Andy shoved his hat down to where it had been before Madame Queen had passed, bit off the end of his cigar stub and blew it from his lips vehemently. “We hear so much about Mad- ame Queen on the Radio,” I ven- tured, “may I presume to ask if she has said the little word yet?” *‘Wel, I reckon dat is about as pussonel a question as you could ask, Mistah, but I’s heah to say I ain’t zactly asked her yit.” Andy Underwood & Underwood.

I spects if they knowed where we is dey would run us to death.” “It must cost you a lot of money putting on two programs every day.’’ “Well, it don’t zactly cost us no money,” said Amos. “Oh, do you mean to tell me they advertise your taxicab busi- ness all over the country for nothing?”’ “De Pepsodent people pays de bills,Y said Amos. “You don’t have to pay any- thing—the Pepsodent people pay everything?” casting Co., in center. “Why must you worry de pore little kids,” Amos sympathized. ‘““‘What’s dey goin’ to do? Don't you reckon dey has to play some place?” ‘“‘Woof! Woof!” Even the dog turned on Andy, who grunted and sauntered back to the doorway of the little office, where he resumed his rest against the door jamb. “One of these days you may find a little gal climbin’ upon yo’ knee, Andy, an’ callin’ you pappy, den you'll feel different,” hinted Uncle Jimmy. But Andy didn’t hear that. His eye had wandered to a small group of women talking in front of the shop next door. Amos gave me a respectful wink. “‘Das right,”’ he said. ‘‘Look at ‘im! ‘He gone clean up to hebben cause he see Mada1iie Queen gab- bin’ wid de preacher's wife. Tha’s she, de plump one wid de green hat and@ de red shawl, turnin’ dis way.

She beamed at him. Andy smiled. Two great fingers touched the rim of his fusty old was still glowering at Amos for bringing the subject up. But Amos gave the tire a-final heave into the rim and grinned toward me. “Don’t you git mad with me, Andy, cause I ain’t told how you all is waitin’ faw de Kingfish to declare dividends on yo’ delayed ayments to de bank. An’ maybe adame Queen might be thinkin’ de same thing "bout her money you got her to invest wid de Kingfish.” This was powde> to the flame. Although he remained glued to the door jamb, Andy pulled his hat still lower on his brow and bit more off the end of the unlighted cigar butt to be shot from his teeth. Words almost failed him, but he said: “Amos, I has asked you like a gen’leman to min’ yo’ own busi- ness. Has I “got to ‘come ovah thah an’ bust yo’ in de nose to splain what I means?” ~© “Reckon yo’ ain't goin’ to bust me in de mose, Andy. Ef yo’ busted me in de nose ever’ time you say yo’ was goin’ to I wouldn’t have no nose left—an’— an’—yo’ wouldn’t have nothin’ left but you mouf. I reckon dat would keep right on goin’ aftah all de rest of yo’ is gone.”’ “Woof!” The little dog bristled at Amos’ side. Andy grunted and walked into the office, slamming the door behind him. “I likes to tease Andy ‘bout de “new mess he thinks up?” Madame Queen cause he got’ so much to say "bout gettin’ mixed up wid women and lettin’ ’em mess up yo’ life faw yo.’ He’s goin’ to fall sumpin awful, an’ I reckon Madame Queen goin’ make a little lamb outta him.” Amos was now sweating over a bicycle pump. I would soon discover whether this outiaw from the punk yard would really go. “How is the Kingfish making out with his bank?’ I asked. ‘ “ET don’t hear much about it any mo’ since I done tell ’em to leave me alone.” “I would like to see the King- fish—and™ talk to him,” I re- marked. “Better not let him see yo’ first and begin de talkin’ hisself less yo’ got yo’ watch an’ chain pad- locked an’ all you’ spare change sewed up in yo’ pocket. Cause when he gets through talkin’ he'll have all yo’ has in his own pockets.”’ “Oh, really, I don’t believe the ‘ Kingfish can be as bad or as good as all that, Amos.” By this time the young man was putting the rim on the wheel. He paused from a final kick to straighten it into place. His eyes opened wide, then he bent to the business of screwing on the nuts with redoubled -energy. Under his breath I could hear him mut- tering, “Awa—awa!” He re- frained from further speech until I asked him if he still had his money in the big bank. ‘“Mistah,” he asked, all his gathering suspicions culminating into this one thought, “did de Kingfish send yo’ to talk to me *bout gettin’ my money into any “Certainly not, Amos, I have never seen the Kingfish, but I should like to. And I’li take my chance on what he can talk mé out of.’’ : , “What is it yo’ want with us?” “Oh, I simply go around talking to the different people we hear on the Radio. Then I write up what they say, and how they look, for the listeners to read in my maga- zine. A lot of poses want to know about you boys, so I came here to find out—to get the gen- eral background, you know.” “De background? We ain’t got no backyard. It’s all built up clean to de alley. Das why I must fix de car heah, less we take it to de Millers garage.” “Oh, that’s all right, Amos. Tf. don’t mean your backyard. I simp- ly mean your surroundings—the circumstances to fill in the picture you create by what you say on the air. It must be an awful nuisance to get ready and go down to the National Broadcasting studios every day. Do you drive your fresh air cab down there?” “Sometimes we goes down theah, but mostways de talk goes out from de office.

BOOKS By ELISABETH E. POE, es HERE are the poets of W yesteryear?” one might inguire as the slim batch of poetic volumes on the re- iewer'’s table are examined. It very evident that, in a year, hen publishers, in common with Sener business men, are feeling e pressure of stock market de- pression, and other signs of finan- ial unrest, they should be chary f poetry—the drug on the pub- shing market even in the best ears. So volumes of poetry have been he and far between this year. ne wonders sometimes if the Cause, after all, is not in the poets hemselves. They have lost the ivine urge to starve in attics in the desire for the fleshpots of royalties. Real poetry has never been Gomposed with one eye to the purse. It just can not be done. Jn Valhalla there are scores of Witnesses to this fact. Poe was ot the only poet who starved for Pie art. Catch a twentieth cen- r meals for the sake of writing sonnet! It is the spirit of poesy which is ber’ poet going without his regu- acking in our modern life. Why, t is hard to see, with novel topics or poetic flights on aH sides. The new domain of the air in it- Gelf is material for an epic which Might tempt a Virgil, a Homer, a aehegy or a Shakespeare. Has it een written? Oh, no! Even Lindbergh's flight did not achieve the feat. Yet never was there a more Poetic combination. . All the ele- nents fer a great poet were there fm the making. Alas, that no poet worthy of the name knew the for- Mula of putting them together. The age of the spirit, or of the ir, if you like the term better, nds itself without a prophet. APPROACH TO POETRY. By Phosphor Mallam. (Thomas Y. Crowell Co., New York.) Mr. Malliam has given ‘tthe ree- Spe for a poet in a concise form An this volume. He describes his @ssential equipment as follows: “A feeling for language, an ear for music, a heart for passion and a soul for beauty.” Such a book as the author has Written will cultivate a reading public for our poets which is a great lack at present. After all, G@assic poets had an audience. (That was assured for them. For they went out and got their au- Giences and held them by the force of their personalities as well @s by their poetic wares. This book is an evaluation of Poetical merits rather a mere freatise on prosody. This is for- unate because it is the spirit of @ poetry rather than its form Which, after all, can hold the at- tention after it has been claimed y a beautiful metrical form. oetry of all arts can be dis- Buised by a false beauty. To do his is to make a mere empty hell. a very mockery of the di- yine temple of this queen of the Spiritual arts. FIFTY FAMOUS LETTERS OF HISTORY. (By Thomas Y. - Crowell Co., New York.) an age when the fine art of fetter writing has well nigh dis- ppeared such a volume is a real reat. ‘ Mr. Gentry covers 25 centuries of time in his book and its varied ¢om pany includes kings and teeng statesmen, scientists, phi- osophers, poets, warriors, adven- irers and adventuresses all of Whom met and rub elbows on the Common ground of this compre- bensive book. ' What an epitome of thought is fn that classic phrase of Socrates When he spurns King Ochus’ of- fer of a lift, “I had rather £0 @foot.”” With more philosophers we ate in that fashion to kings ‘ nd worldly potentates the course pf history would be different. HARVEY W. WILEY. An Auto- , biography. (Bobbs Merril! Co., | Indianapolis. ) The City of Washington, which has counted Harvey W. Wiley as One of its most distinguished citi- Zens for many years, will rejoice dm this chronicle of his achieve- ments from that most reliable of gources—his “own pen. Dr. Wiley is one of the celebri- ties pointed out to visitors on the 6treets of Washington. Until Baie recently, despite his advanc- ing years, he could be seen dally, a vigorous figure, wasting to his "downtown office and disdaining rp the soft delights of transportation. Millions of his countrymen and countrywomen have cause to be grateful to Dr. Wiley for his pure food crusade when he fought the good fight for the health and safe- ty of the average American against a myriad of trusts wish- ing to increase their swollen gains by betrayal of the people’s best interests in adulterated food and poisonious drugs. Dr. Wiley won, but it was a real fight. It was typical of the way he has wrested fortune and fame by harfl work and intellect from the hands of destiny. His life story is one of inspira- tion to every boy and girl who may be fdortunate enough to read it. Like many other great Amer- icans, his horizon in early life was bounjsled by the hills of his native farm. Yet they could not long imprison such a spirit as that of Harvey W. Wiley, and soon he was “over the hills and far away,” on a quest which was to end in the Bureau -of Chemistry of the De- partment of Agriculture, where he was ¢o find a national opportunity for service. Hard work only stopped for Dr. Wiley in October, 1929, when fail- ing health led to his withdrawal from too active duties. In his eighty-sixth year his mind is still vigorous and he is fulfilling the prophecy of his own book: “When I retire it shall not be to idleness, but to study and contemplation. I hope to cultivate the higher phi- losophy which teaches that life and death are the extreme links of a harmonious whole.”’ THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF CHAMELEON. By Daisy Breaux (Cornelia Donovan O’Donovan Calhoun). (The Potomac Press, . Washington, D. C.) The graceful art of writing memoirs is’ well exemplified in this highly entertaining account of an interesting life in which princes and potentates, presidents, politics and personalities throng in delightful profusion. a The author aptly takes her unique title from the fact that she has lived in five distinct and separate communities and been an outstanding figure in all of *them. In Harrisburg as little Daisy Donovan; in New Orleans and At; lanta as Daisy Breaux; in Charltes- ton as Daisy Simonds; Daisy Gum- mere in Princeton, and in Wash- ington as Mrs. C. C. Calhoun, Cor- nelia Calhoun, leader in philan- thropic movements, playwright and builder of palatial homes. The author confesses to chameleon characteristics made the changes in her life veritable reincarnations but with the advantage of continuing mem- ory from one State to the other. When a dynamic woman like Mrs. Calhoun in the heyday of her life and energy takes up her pen to tell the story of her career, it is sure to make a .dramatic tale, especially when it is a life that has had more than its share of color and change, of joy -and grief, of tragedy worse than death, of devotion and friendship, of bitterness and misrepresentation. Such a life with all its ramifi- cations is bound to be of thrill- ing context. Those who buy this handsomely bounds well illustrat- ed book, will not be disappcinted. There is real interest on every page. The book has a certain histori- cal importarfce also because it gives close-ups of national not- ables of the past three genera- tions. The author’s powers of description are of unusual merit. She pictures the environments in which she has lived with amazing Clarity and vividness. The in- dividual charm of the social life in several American cities as weli as foreign capitals has been fas- cinatingly told from the point of view of one who has been a part thereof. Intimate glimpses of the Prinze of Wales, who called on/Mrs. Cal- houn during his Washington visit of 1919, and the versatile Queen Marie of Roumania, are given in Mrs. Calhoun’s book. Queen Ma- rie was sponsor for ‘a charity show in New York during her American stay which caused a so- cial furore. Mrs. Calhoun shows us glimpses, too, of the intrigues which beset the path of royalty but takes pains to assure us that the book is in no sense of the word a “chronicle scandaleuse.”’ Society life in Washington is the theme of a highly absorbing chapter. “vidently the writer knows her Washington, ifs follies, parasitic the that t= SS SS : ane =-- - told by Harrison 8S. Morris in “Confessions in Art,”’ is this one about Andrew Carnegie which, says Mr. Morris, the_iron- master used to tell on himself “with much wicked enjoyment.” “When I was pretty well off,” chuckled Carnegie, and getting on in years, I felt that I needed a rest in the summertime far from the noise and grime of Pittsburgh. So I called the heads of my busi- ness together and addressed them. . om e f MONG the many good stories “I said I was going away; my health was good, the mills were giving me no anxiety—but I needed the relief. After I was through my old foreman, Jones, got up to make a reply, and this is what he said: “‘Well, Mr. Carnegie, if it is going to be a relief to you, what do you suppose it will be for us?’ ’’ . +. > 7 Once when Carnegie was visit- ing his sister-in-law on Jekyll Island she told him she could not get any letters from her sons who were at Yale. She was anxious about them. Carnegie bet her he would have a lett from them as soon as the mail could reach New Haven and return. The bet was accepted. He wrote the boys that their mother was worried about them; that he wasivisiting her; that all>» were very well at their home; and gave them other news that would interest them. -Then he added that he was enclosing five dollars for each, and he signed himsélf their affectionate uncle. But he did not enclose the $10. 7 7 ce . As he told the stgry himself (re- calls Mr. Morris), his twinkling little eyes enjoyed the slyness of it immensely. Then, in two or three day¥s, a re- ply came. It revealed the atro- cious fact that he had forgotten to send the $5 bills. He should ,send them at once, as the boys were nearly dead broke. + He had outwitted his nephews and won his bet; the power of his -money was demonstrated. . . * +. That Carnegie had a lively sense of the origin of his wealth was, foibles and frivolities more than passing well. Epigrams abound in the books and there is more than one bit of really fine writ- ing in its A407 pages. Written in an easy, graceful style, it will be found most read- able and a book the last page of which will be turned reluctantly by all who cherish the gentle art of the raconteum In the several autobiographies of the year this book should earn a definite place through the novelty of its pres- entation and the new light it throws upon eontemporary social) history. INK. By John C. Mellett. (Bobbs Merrill Co., Indianapolis.) To the. members of the Fourth Estate this book will have a par- ticular appeal for it is evident that it may have been written by a newspaper man (not a journal- ist). . We can readily believe that the author of this book has really cov- ered stories and gone after facts although, somehow, he has writ- ten his book as a book and not a newspaper story. When some au- thor does write a book as he would a story for the newspaper- reading public, we will then have the great American newspaper novel. But he has written-a story that will be read from the beginning to the end by every newspaper man and-woman who has a dream never expressed deep down in his or her consciousness that he could do much for the world if they owned a newspaper. So this red-headed, courageous and independent central charac- ter in this newspaper book, the counterpart to be found along any newspaper row, perhaps, starts out on his great beat and buys a moribund sheet in Columbia for one dollar and along with it five thousand dollars worth of liabil- ities. w= 5 : wi Then_ things begin to happen and the town and the community about the town begins to hum and to buy the paper and many crusades. spring up, There is much stirring up of stagnant com- munity spirit and many protests against such blatant statements of facts. But this man has a pas- sion for facts and for putting them down without fear or favor and letting the action come from the people. “came to hand, =By W. Orton made manifest, Mr. Morris says, when on a visit to his confidential old. friend, Joseph Wharton, he was enlarging on the luxuries he had installed in his Scotch castle of Skibo. “You see, Joseph,” Carnegie ex- plained, “I have no religion to speak of; but on a Sunday morn- ing, when other people are at church, I like to float about there in my swimming pool, while a Highlander in all his regalia plays sacred music on his pipes; and as I lie there in the water thinking over my possessions, the convic- tion comes to me that :f a commis- sion was sent down from heaven to assess my rights to what I have, J should be deprived of a goodly part of it.” ~ 8) o . . * In days gone by a young Ameri- can matron went to stay with Mr. and Mrs. Rudyard Kipling in Bng- land. Necessity had forced her to leave in America her two little girls, from whom she had never been ‘parted before. Upon arrival at the Kipling home, much wor- ried at not having heard from her children, she was handed a cable saying they were well. Relieved, tears rose to her eyes. G. B. Bur- gin relates the incident in ‘‘More Memoirs and Some Travels.”’ Kip- ling saw them and said to his, wife: ‘“‘Take Mrs. up to the nurs- ery and show her the children. What she wants is-baby talk.’’ > © & *@ When the Earl of Aberdeen was Governor General of Canada, Mr. Furniss was invitéd to dine at Government House, Ottawa. A dl- rect result of that dinner was the furnishing by Mr. Furniss to J. M. “Barrie of tha idea for his delicious play, “The Admirable Crichton.” “On my return from my Ameri- can tour I was having lunch at the Garrick Club when Barrie sat down at the same small table,” relates Furniss, “and-in chatting over my visit to Canada I men- tioned the nye innovation the Aberdeens had introduced into Government House. > 7. > as “Onee a week they changed places with the servants, and they and their staff—sg I was informed by their aid-de-camp — waited upon their domestics at dinner. _“As if one more germ of an idea had penetrated into his well- stocked brain, Barrie’s massive head slightly oscillAted, but, as he is not demonstrative, he . said nothing. * 7 ” > Pett Ridge, novelist and Dick- ens enthusiast, tells this: A little girl went to stay with her aunt, and gravely _ watched her saying her prayers upon the first morning. When the aunt arose to her feet again the child said: . “Auntie, do you say your pray- ers now as well as at bedtime?” “Of course,” said auntie, “don’t -you?”’ “No, I say “my prayers at bed- time and in the morning I do breathing exercises.” . . — 7 One of Louise Jopling’s sitters was a parson—-the Rev. Barnes. He talked continually of a certain Jezebel. ‘Whe is Jezebel?”’ the painter asked—she tells the story in “Twenty Years of My Life.” “Oh, my wife.” “Why do you call her that?” “Oh, when I married, rather late in life, we went away to the usual parson’s week——-Monday to Saturday—and coming home late I had no time to pick and choose a sermon, so I took the first that It prove to be all about Jezebel. ‘Oh, the parson’s found ’em out,’ my parishioners said: so now I always call my wife ‘Jezebel.’ ”’ * 2 ¢ * Once’ upon a time, yarns Compton Mackenzie, the novelist (in “Gallipoli Memories’), the civic dignitaries of some town wanted to make a presentation to Lord Kitchener as a mark of their regard for his genius. They were told that the best thing they could give him would be a piece of china. So a piece of china was bought, but being aware of the great man’s expert knowledge. of china the donors were anxious to ‘know if the piece they proposed to. give him was likely to meet with his approval. > # ¢ Without saying a word to him, it. was put. on the table at a civic lunch im the hope that his favor- | An. / Salt-Shaker | =: - — - _ - — able opinion of it would reassure their anxiety about its acceptable- ness to a connoisseur. Now it really was a very fine and rare piece, and as sdon as the great man sat down at the table he cocked an appraising eye upon it. 7. 7 . . While the dignitaries were waiting for the verdict Kitchener, who knew nothing about the pres- entation, had been deciding that he must somehow secure that piece for his Own collection and also that he must buy it cheap. So with this object in view he ob- served in his gruffest voice that the piece was not genuine, at which the poor dignitaries were so much depressed that they said not a word about the intended gift and . took the china back to the dealers! 7 > > . Which recalls the story told by former Prime Minister Asquith (in his memoirs) of an occasion éarly in the World War when he and Kitehener visited Ypres to- gether. The Germans had been peppering the famous Cloth Hall which was in ruins although large parts of the fine arcades of statues were still intact. “I observed that Kitchener was scanning them with an expert’s gaze,’’ records Mr. Asquith, Then some one nudged the prime minister’s elbow and, turn- ing, Mr. Asquith saw a young staff captain who said: : “Do You see that?- Those stat- ues have been bombarded by the Germans for 100 days, but they liave never been in’ “uch danger as they are now.”’ “Do you mean,” replied As- quith, “that we may some day hope to see one or more of them at Broome Park?’’—/(Kitchener’s home in England). The audacious youth nodded and disappeared into space, and ‘to my regret,” adds Mr. Asquith, appreciatively, “I was never able to establish his identity.” The most remarkable prophecy in the history of photography— of pictures that would record sound as well as light——appears in the famous diary of Philip Hone, of New York City, written in 1839. The Frenchman, Louis Jacques Mande Daguerre, had - sent to America a collection of views made by. his newly discov- ered process—the daguerreotype. Hone went to have a look at the views and then wrote in his diary: ‘And who knows whether,.in this age of invention and discov- eries, we may not be called upon to marvel at the exhibition of the human voice muttering over a metal plate prepared in the same or some other manner.’’ . > > . And it may interest you to know that the problem of “fixing” was solved in the year 1839 when Sir John Herschel, famous scien- tist, recommended to Daguerre his own discovery of twenty years earlier, hyposulphite of soda, since familiar to the photographic world as “hypo.” Then, at last, says Carl W. Ackerman (in his biography of George Eastman), pictures stayed as they were taken. + . . * “The first impression is not al- ways the most important. one,’’ as the publishers said when they an- nounced the latest and largest edition of a best seller.

ee ee re a ee ee ee -_——--- ee RBOR DAY celebrations {throughout the country re- call the consideration al- ways given by the Government to the conservation of our national resources almost from the be- ginning of the répubtlic. The natural wealth represented by our forests and woods is al- ‘most beyond ¢éompiutation. It means .safety and security for homemakers because such wooded areas enrich the land as well as furnish fuel, furniture material and other riches for mankind. The United States, according to the Forest Service of the Depart- ment of Agriculture is the largest coffsumer of wood in the world. Few know that our national for- ests consist of over 150,000,000 acres of land. The young growth of trees is protected by the Forest Service and other forest resources are conserved in every way pos- sible. This is most necessary because lumber is now consumed four times as fast as it Is grown. It has been estimated that out of the 22% billion cubic feet of lumber cut we waste each year more than 9$ billion feet. Think of these figures the next time you witness the unnecessary destruction of a growing tree. Put in your protest about it, if possible, for American home- makers need to prtecot our forests and lumber reserves where they can. “How hot is it?” is a question which will be more frequently re- marked in American homes as summer comes on apace. In or- der to answer that question ac- curately from his homemakers, your Uncle Sam spends more than $2,000,000 annually. The homemaker should be par- ticularly interested in the storm signals which are given to farm- ers and others who handie_ food stuffs, warnings of bad weather which often lead to the savings of thousands of dollars worth of food supplies either in the raw or in process of manufacture. For instance, growers of fruit. tebacco, cranberries, and market garden produce find the signals of frost or freezing weather of great advantage. The daily life of the people is thus reached and aided in many ways by the activi- ties of the Weather Bureau. Of course, the signals given of storms at seas no doubt in the course of the year save many lives as well.

Very often in large-sized pat- terns and ready-made garments the width of the shoulders has been increased in the same pro- portion as the bust measure. Because the shoulders are a bony structure and the bust is a tissue structure, the shoulders do not necessarily increase in proportion to the bust. Therefore the gar- ment is apt to be too long on the shoulder and the armescye not in ite proper position. This long shoulder tends to give a broad effect to the figure. It is particu- larly unfortunate, when a person has already rather broad shoul- ders, to cut a dress so that it adds to their apparent width, and makes the wearer of the garment look short and squat. To correct the trouble, says the Bureau of Heme Economics. of the U. 8. Department of Agricu!- ture, in the bulletin on “Fitting Dresses and Blouses,’’ fold a small lengthwise dart.in the front and back of the pattern, through the center of the shoulder, taking out the necessary amount. This al- lows plenty of fullness in the bust and gets rid of it on the shoulder. Be sure to keep the back shoulder from the neck to the armscye one- half inch longer than the front shoulder. Rip the shoulder seam and recut the armscye from the altered pattern. This preserves the original size of the armscye nd ie safer than trimming it out. . If fullness is desired, make tucks or shirring in the front shoulder je take up the extra width. ._ To alter a ready-made garment, ,make a small lengthwise dart or ‘&. group .of tucks in the front shoulder and trim out the arm- scye in. adiaf wes. rr oe. eee UPS! «=~ bol) > att pees “3°08 en vert THE WASHING _ GOOD DIET NEEDS ABUNDANCE ee ne eee eee OF FOODS RICH IN VITAMIN B Our knowledge about vitamins has been undergoing constant ex- pansion. It is still far from com- lete. First came recognition of the fact that in natural food ma- terials there existed, in minute quantities, certain substances other than proteins, fats, carbohydrates and salts, which appeared to be essential for normal nutrition. Fur- ther investigation showed that , these substances,-or vitamins, also — various pathological con- itions, or “deficiency diseases.” Early in the work three separate vitamins were identified, and called A, B and C. Each one had func- tions uliar to itself. Several years later two more vitamins, D and E, were discovered. Compara- tively recently it has been found that another vitamin, named G, oc- curs in a great many foods which are also rich in vitamin B. The identification of vitamin G was ob- secured for a long time bécause of this parallel occurrence. e functions of the two vita- mins differ. Vitamin B prevents beri-beri, while vitamin G prevents pellagra. An abundance of both vitamins is essential for growth and well-being at all ages, but par- ticularly for nursing mothers and young children. As both occur toa large extent in the same foods and in a very wide variety of foods, a varied diet containing fruits and vegetables will usually be satisfac- tory in respect to these two fac- tors. The Bureau of Home Eco- nomics of the United States De- partment of Agriculture suggests the following foods as good sources of vitamin B: Asparagus, beans, fresh and dried; brains, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, celery, cow- pees. egg yolk, fish roe, grapefruit, idney, lemons, lentils, whole-grain products, lettuce, liver, milk, nuts, okra, onions, oranges, parsley, parsnips, peas, potatoes, pineap- ples, ruta-bagas, spinach and other reens, tomatoes. With so long a ist from which to choose, the diet may be pleasingly varied and yet always meet the requirements for an abundance of vitamin B. To Plan Meals Properly. (Bureau of Home Economics.) Thé thoroughly modern girl— and boy, too—wants to know some- thing about good diet. Whether the main concern is choosing meals at a cafeteria or . lunch room, or helping with meals at home, it is clearly important to everybody to know what to eat to keep well and store up energy, and what food combinations are suitable together. The older boys and girls in many families can be of great help if they can from time to time relieve their mothers of the task of planning and pre- paring meals. What a real “day off” a mother | might have if the meals on Sat- urday, for example, could be at- tended to entirely by one of her daughters, leaving her free to go shopping, visit her friends, at- tend a club meeting, make a trip to another town, or get caught up on other things! And the daugh- ter would not only enjoy the change from books and lessons, although she would actually be learting something of permanent use to her, but she would have the satisfaction of releasing her mother for-a few hours from her daily routine. A girl of 11 or 12 is not toe young to try planning and as- sembling a simple dinner without help. After she has gained con- fidence in handling food materials and kitchen range, she might do this regularly when school work permits. Perhaps her brother would find it interesting to -help her, too, and at the same time learn why there should be more spinach than pie in his menus, and why fried potatoes and doughnuts. at the same meal would be a poor combination. The Bureau of Home Economics of the U. 8. Department of Agri- culture, a few years ago, prepared a brief circular on the subject of meal planning, which ig just what the beginner in this field needs. It was intended especially for the use of 4-H elub members, and is written in simple; readable form, easily followed. Both boys and girls belong to these clubs, and as many of them have to take part in the farm home activities, food se- lection and meal planning is one of the regular projects in club work. The. circular describes each of the five food groups, tells which food belong in each group, and makes a number of interest- ing suggestions about combining foods in menus, It points out, too, that attractive appearance and texture in the foods served at a meal is important as a stimulus to good appetite. This publication can be ob- tained. free by writing to the U. S. Department of Agriculture, as long as the supply for free dis- tribution is available. Changing Curtains For Summer Months (U. 8S. Department of Agriculture.) It is always a good plan to have in reserve a second set of window curtains for use in the summer months, so that the best ones can be put away for a while, Thin curtain fabrice are sometimes greatly weakened by the action of light. When windows are open in warm weather much dust and grit is blown into the meshes of the curtains, and so if they are left up all summer they may go to pieces when they are washed in the fall. Substitute for the delicate lace or sheer marquisetts curtains used in the winter some gay, durable fabrics that will modify light and give privacy, but not keep out the air to any extent. Choose some of the sunfast materials in colors, or such materials as vaile or scrim with figured voile, colored binding or a band of plain colored material. A change of dress like this often gives the family the re- freshing feeling that the house is a new and different place to live in. These summer curtains, in their turn, disappear in the fall when the formal draperies are put back. Put the winter set of curtains away washed, but not ironed or stretched. Wrap them carefully in paper to “protect them from dust. In the autumn it is only necessary to dampen and put them on a stretcher, if they are made of lace; or to press them if made of marquisette, scrim or voile. ~ If they are put away fully laundered, any necessary folding makes creases that necessitate pressing or stretching again. For directions on washing and stretching or pressing curtains, send to the U. S. Department of Agriculture for Farmers’ Bulletin 1497-F on methods of home laun- dering.

Timely Tested Recipes from . The Bureau of Home Economics (Department of Agriculture.) Fried Okra. Okra is one of the vegetables which, after being chiefly ased in a limited locality, suddenly began to find its way all over the United States, due to better marketing and storage facilities. One result has been that many people are not quite sure how to cook it when they see it offered for sale. In the South there are numerous uses for okra and various meth- ods of preparing it. Here is one of the best. The recipe is fur- nished by the Bureau of Home Economics: 2 quarts okra. 4 tablespoons fat. Salt to taste. Select young okra, wash_it well, and cut crosswise in pieces about % inch thick. Heat the fat in a heavy skillet, add the okra, cover, cook for ten minutes and stir fre- quently to prevent burning. Re- move the cover, continue to cook until the okra is tender and light- ly brown and serve at once. Asparagus on Toast. Cook the asparagus as quickly as possible, but cook it gently, by simmering, to avoid breaking off the tender heads and toughening the stalks. Quick cooking pre- serves its nutrients, its color and its favor. The bureau says: “Wash the asparagus well, scrape off the little scales with a knife to remove all sand and trim off the tough lower ends. Leave the stalks whole or cut into 2-inch pieces. Drop into a small quantity of lightly salted boiling water,. simmer for from 15 to 20 minutes, drain, and arrange neat- ly on thin slices of buttered toast. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. pour melted butter or other fat over the top and serve at once.” Lattice Potatoes. The attractive appearance of lattice potatoes, their color and crisp texture, makes them unu- sually pleasing when served with cold meat and salad for lunch or supper. They are not hard to prepare. To make them, a grooved board covered with a piece of tin with a cutting edge can be bought almost anywhere kitchen wares are sold. This ap- paratus is not expensive. After the lattice potatoes are eut they should be rinsed in cold running water and soaked for two or three hours in cold water to remove as much starch as pos- sible. Dip. the pieces from the water and pat them with a clean dry cloth to absorb as much moisture as possible. Heat a ket- tle of deep fat hot enough to brown a small piece of bread in 60 seconds. Fry about a cupful Re- move them from the fat when golden brown, drain on clean ab- sorbent paper and sprinkle with salt. Serve at once while hot and crisp. Shoulder of Lamb. A shoulder of iamb is one of the most tender and juicy cuts, but it is scometimes passed by be- cause the housewife believes it will be difficult to carve. All of the bones can be easily removed, however, and the meat is then sliced without any trouble. The Bureau of Home Economics of the United States Department of Agriculture likes a boned shoulder to be stuffed and sewed up for baking in the form ofa “cushion roast” rather than a rolled roast. Directions for taking the boues out properly are given by the Bureau of Animal Industry. The first requisite is a sharp knife with a narrow blade about four or five inches long ané@ half an inch wide. Do not keep this knife in a kitchen drawer among other kitchen tools, or where it is likely to be picked up fer odd uses, like peeling potatoes or whittling. For boning the knife must be well-sharpened and in good condition so that it will slide easily along the surface of the bone, cut the muscle free, slip down into the joints and cut sinews and tendons without gash- ing. Keep this knife by itself in a special place. Lamb shoulder, as cut for the retail trade, is almost as square and plump as a cushion. It con- tains four or five ribs, the shoulder blade, the round arm bone and part of the neck. To bone it lay the shoulder flat on the table with the fat side down and the rib side up.._£-First. slip the knife under the edges.of the ribs and follow down along them to the neck bone, leaving just as much meat as possible on the shoulder. Cut the ribs and the neck bones from the meat. In- side the shoulder there still re- main the blade bone and the short end of the arm. The fiat blade and the round arm bone form sort of ell that extends through the center of the shoulder. The edge of the blade bone can be seen on the rear of the shoulder, and the arm bone on the side toward the one who is cutting. Slip the knife deep into the meat along the top or smooth side of the shoulder blade. Continue the cut around the corner to the arm bone, raising a flap of lean meat that can be laid back far enough to expose the full length of the bones. Peel out the sheulder blade and arm bone. You now have a cushion of meat open on two adjacent sides with a fine large pocket to hold a tasty stuffing. Whether roasted with or without stuffing, the edges of the pocket should be sewed to- gether before cooking. Cream or Neufchatel Cheese Toasted. 1% cheeses. 1 egg. % teaspoon salt. % teaspoon baking powder. Tabasco or Worcestershire sauce. Cream the cheese and add the beaten egg yolk, the salt and enough tabasco, worcestershire or any other highly seasoned sauce to give favor. Mix well, fold this into the beaten white of eg. When thoroughly blended add the baking powder. Toast thin slices of bread on one side. Cover the untoasted side with the cheese mixture. Slices of mild-flavored onions may be laid on the bread before the cheese mixture is add- ed if desired. Brown the cheese slightly under slow heat and serve at once. This is an excel- lent luncheon or supper dish when served with bacon or may be used on small topnds of toast er on - Stackerq tor, afternoon jea, ..

Joel and his grand- mother waved dispirited hands to him from the window. It was the most they could do. He flour- ished his whip, drove on, disap- peared: down the road toward Jacob's. “We mustn’t get the mail,” whispered grandmother. “He'll want it to be right there in the box when he wakes up,”’ Joel nod- ded.

A SURE SIGN OF SPRING 4b Ly, A GREAT EVENT IN HISTORY ‘My First Meal at Camp My first meal at camp was neither satisfying to my hunger nor pleasant to me. After sitting down at the table I was given some soup which I started to eat with great relish. Sud- denly my teeth hit against something extremely hard, which, in my surprise, I swallowed. Upon further investiga- tion of my soup I found four good- sized stones. Being then afraid to continue eating this dish I picked up a biscuit. After I had made several unsuccessful attempts to swallow it I became wary and on looking care- fully saw that the biscuit was filled with cotton. My hunger and thirst not yet satisfied, I started to drink a glass of milk. This, however, was so bitter that I set it down and made a wry face, much to the amusement of my fellow campers. In my distraction I- picked up an orange which I had brought from home. I carefully scrutinized the outside for punctures, used my own knife in cutting it and, after taking one careful bite, I decided it was all right. In two minutes there was nothing but the skin of that orange left, and I almost chewed up that. - Far.be it from me to accuse those fine boys I met at camp of having tried to fool an innocent “rookie” like me, but 1 don’t think the cook put the stones in my soup or the cotton in my bread or the quinine in my milk.

Jean Francois Millet Jean Francois Millet was born in the little Norman village of Gruchry, near Cherbourg, France, on October 4, 1614. While his peasant mother and father worked in the fields, his grand- mother, a remarkable old woman, took care of the family and became the guiding influence of Méillet’s boy- hood. At the age of 12 he began to study Latin under his uncle and soon developed a passionate love for books. His few leisure hours he de- voted to reading and drawing. When Millet was 18 years old, his father, seeing a sketch which the boy made of an old man, became con- vinced of the boy’s talent and both Millet and his father set out for Cher- bourg, where Millet was placed under an artist named Mouchel. His father’s death, two months iater, called him home, and would have ended his artistic career if his grand- mother had not sent him back again to Cherbourg. His progress was rapid and in 1837, with the aid of a small pension granted to Millet by the City of Cherbourg, he went to France to continue his study of art. Millet’s life in Paris was a hard One for it was filled with bitter dis- appointment and poverty. His pow- erful interpretations of peasant folk seemed crude, rough, and laughable to the critics with whom he came in contact. In order to make a living, Millet was reduced to drawing pastel por- traits which he sold for a mere ¢ ng. So, in the year of 1844, he returned to his home in Gruchry. But in the meantime his pictures began to at- tract some attention, and on Mr. Mil- let's return to Paris in 1845 things looked better for him. But when he decided to use only peasant life for his subjects, his orders immediately began to decrease. When the Revolution of 1849 broke out, Millet and his friend, Jacque. left the city and went to the village of Barbigon. The struggle against poverty had not lessened, but. grad- ually the rugged power and realism of his canvases began to be appre- ciated. At the Paris Exposition o2f 1867 he was awarded a medal of “he first class. Orders came in and he even dared to raise his prices. In 1868 he was given the cross of the. Legion of Honor, the announcement of which was greeted. with a burst of applause from the leading art cri- tics of his day. Jean Francois Millet died in the year of 1875. He was 61 years old. ALMA C.

Mary’s room is a lovely, restful one, always neat and clean, while Edith’s is like chaos, everything everywhere. Upon entering Mary’s room, a sense of peace and quiet steals over you. Everything on her bureau and desk is in order; the big armchair, covered with soft-coleged cretonne, is, invit- ing, and the bed, with its lovely spread of soft biue and its many tiny. pillows, is delightful. There are several well-chosen pic- tures on the walls; and one or two school banners occupy the place of honor. The books in the bookcase, nearly all romances, are covered in gayly colored cretonne, and are neatly arranged on she shelves. An old doll, relic of Mary’s early childhood, occu- pies a little chair in one corner of he room, and near it is the pillow for Mary's little dog, “Nip.” At night several lamps cast a rosy glow over the crisp whiteness of the window draperies, the big armchair and the whole of the room, making it doubly delightful. Surely one could not wish ‘o see a prettier, daintier room any- here. ~ But now let us hasten on to Edith's room. There a rude shock awaits the visitor.

Admiral Dewey On the 15th of February, 18906, «& ship-called the Maine was blown up It was an American ship. It was biown up by a Spanish submerine . mine. When the United States heard that the Spaniards had done this thef demanded Spain give the Cubans their liberty. Spain was fighting the Cubans Spain refused, so the United States took up arms on Cuba's behalf, Troops were called out, ships were sent to blockade Cuba's ports, and President McKinley telegraphed George Dewey to go to Manila and Geatroy the Spanish fleet. To make tt a more ticklish job, the Germans and English were in the seme port. Dewey was afraid the Cermans would help the Spanish, but the @ngliish fieet kept the German Leet quiet. %. on the last night of April Dewey's Geet was outlined in the mooulight off Manila Bay. Tne next morning the Spaniards opened fire The fight was on. Be- tween the Spanish and the Americans lay a string of mines. These did net stop the American admiral. He ordered his fiagship to go over them. As they neared them some went up but did no damage. The other ships followed in battle order. At about 7°30 a saflor came to Dewey and said. “There are only fifteen rounds of ammunition left.” Admiral Dewey then ordered his ships from the line of fire. While the men ate supper the ammunition was counted It was found there had been a mistake. The Americans went back into battle. and in an hour made the Spanish cease firing. They had - gunk, riddied and burned the Spanish boats Dewey's fiecet was not hurt. By this battle the Philippine Is- lands a ion of the . Cube’s liberty was realized.

Tiny Tots Corner Billy Boy Billy Boy got up early Saturday morning, thinking of the following morning, which would bring Easter. After dressing, he went downstairs and ate his breakfast. Having fin- ished that he began helping Mother, but the little, chubby 4-year-old boy caused more trouble than was needed. Then, that evening, Billy slapped his little baby sister very hard and made her cry, because she put his new book on the floor Mother scold- ed him, but it did no good. That night, when Billy was in bed, he thought of what he had done, and he was sorry he had done it. but it was too late now. Would the Easter bunnie bring him anything? Billy went to sleep with this on his mind. But the bunnie—well, I will leave that to you. JANE DAVIS WILSON (age 10). Weyers Cave, va, R. F. D.

I can see the puppies play in a bright, sunshiny day, When all the children are as happy as can be, Going at their games pleasantly. I can see the autos pass, And the cats play on the grass, And hear the whistling of a horn As I sit upon my lawn.

HUNT (age 10). 910 Quincy street northwest. My Garden One day while walking through my garden 1 heard whispering. Looking around I saw only the spring flowers. Stooping to pick a jonqujl, I said aloud, “I wonder how you received your name.” The flower replied: My original name was John Quill. One day a boy — one of my ancestors and ught him to his teacher, who asked him if he could spell it. name. Yes, he answered j-o-n-q-u-i-l. Since then my name has a been spelled that way.” I next went to the hyacinth, The hyacinth’s story was: “A long time ago, when my plant was very young, a little girl named Cynthia came to the garden every day to play. One day she spied this plant and was try- ing to think of a name for it when one of the flowers called ‘Hyacinth,’ an abbreviation of ‘Hi Cinthia.’ The little girl thought it an ideal >» ame, so ever. since I've been called ‘hyacinth.’ ” A large forsythia bush attracted my attention then. Asking the same question, I was answered: “My mother was given the name and I was called the same, but I} ‘never. tired' of hearing how. she obtained: it. She was hth! ° Every evening, rain or shine, two lovers met and sat on the bench near mother, so close in fact that she could hear every word they said. One time when they were unusually happy, the young man cut a sprig off my mother and gave it to the girl. For a long time this continued, till finally two days the girl didn’t come. The third day neither the girl nor the young man came. A week passed and mother missed them dreadfully. Then one day the young man, look- ing very sad and with drooped shoul- ders, came up to the bench and ad- dressed my mother. “I loved Sythia and now she is dead, I am going to have a rememberanee of her. I am poor and ce not afford anything. I have no friends and since .cu have watched our romance daily, I am naming you ‘for Sythia,’ he said and departed. Mother saw him often and he always mumbled as he passed, ‘forsythia,’ and tipped his hat.’ A daffodil was touching me play- fully with her head. “My original name was. ‘Dil,’” she said, “and be- cause 1 doffed my head and was proud, the other wers said I was crazy. One bright flower, who prided himself on his knowledge, said I was daffy. The flowers thought it a fine name and called me ‘Daff-o-dill.’” BESSIE ANNE ANDERSON (age 15).

He would stop and put stepping stones down or build a bridge for others to cross on, using the bricks of courage, education and such aids to knighthood for stonés and wood.

Ding! Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong! Whir! Whir! Whir!”’ Of course, the members of the George Washington Circle of the Knighthood of Youth were sorry somebody's house was on fire. But it was exciting to have a.fire alarm come in just as the. ‘ages and the newly promoted esquires had finished going over the fire engine house. They had heard Little Lilian’s father and &% * the chief of the fire engine house tell them all] about the different fire en- ginés and ladders, and even allowed them to climb up in the seats into the places of the firemen. But as they stood well back out of the way they felt very excited to see the smoothly running fire engines and other parts of the fire rescue equipment dash out with a lot of noise. | The Valiant Lady and Lenore’s father shared the excitement, al- though, of course, the Valiant Lady did say that she hoped that the fire wee not a big one. “Oh, no!” Sam assured her. “Don’t worry, mother; the engines wii] be there so quickly and this crew is such a wonderful one they can beat any fire ever started.” The pages and esquires had formed an instant liking forthe sturdy men who were _com- panions of Lilian’s father in keeping Washington safe from fires. “Thank you, my boy; the boys will be glad to hear what-you say,” said Lilian’s father. “Don't you go to the fire?” Jenny asked, secretly wishing that they * could al] follow to see Lilian’'s father at his heroic deeds. “No; this is my day off.

He has & permit to take us around.” “Oh, that is so exciting,” Nancy said, as she and Anne pressed each other’s hands. They whispered to each other that they were going to be fliers themselves, just like Mrs. Lind- bergh and Amelia Earhart. Lenore was as eager as the rest. She thought flying most poetic. She rmieant to write a poem on flying for The Junior Post. “Are we going to see a real air- plane—touch it and get in it?” asked little Johnny. “Perhaps, my lad; perhaps,” Lil- lian’s father answered. “Well. let us be on our way,” Le- nore’s father said, as he piloted the Valiant Lady to & seat in his car. “Where will you sit, madam, and you, sir?” he asked Mr. and Mrs. Brown. who were as air-minded as their chil- dren. ; “Lilian’s father is to ride with us.” Jack said, as he, Bill, Bob and Sam pressed about the former sailor fire- man so that they could have him to themselves. “He is going tc tell us tales: of the Navy,” Jack explained to his father. Soon the three cars were off, full of happy knights and eaquires. Almost before they knew it, the little party had arrived at the Naval Air Station. ego “It looks just like Arithmetic Land ” - ner Washington Cirs. —oOr Spotilessvilie,” Jenny whispered to Anne, for they had been exchang- ing the moet fascinating book with stories about little people who counted every thing they did and lived in a land Where the leaves of every tree were exactly the same size ang had a number and the houses were cut just as even and arithmetic like as could be “That is the Navy, that is the way they do it in the Navy,” Anne ex- plained. “‘The Valiant Lady says that _ the Navy has everything “in order | Sayings ef Children Mrs. Hartwell had taken her smal) son, Vernon, to church.

What is an urchin? Do you know?” she inquired of Lenore whom, she thought, knew many things of many subjects. “I know that you are a sweet urchin!” Lenore replied as she leaned over to kiss the flushed face of the tiny daughter of the former sailor Secretly she liked the friendship of this lovable little gir). “Do. you know where 1 got this dress?” Lilian asked proudly as she spread out her short skirt of pink linen. “The Valiant Lady made it for me,” Lilian explained. “She was making a dress for Anne just like it and she had this piece of goods left. She said she just could not resist seeing how I would look in pink. She kissed me and said I was a darling.” Lilian’s voice showed het pride in winning the praise of the Valiant Lady. “Ang she does, too,” Jenny said to Nancy. “She is a pretty little thing.” “This summer mother wants me to make some of my dresses by hand.” Anne said, “and she said you girls can come over and sew with me or we can take our sewing under the trees In the park.” / “That would be fine. Mother likes us to sew,” Nancy replied. “I do want a blue linen dress.” “T want a yellow one,” Lenore said. “JT want to make one.

Promptness Asked Of Every Page in Knighthood Realm Being on Time One of Stones in Castles Youths Build. Being on time is a way kings have of being polite according to an old proverb. Looking over the reminder cards of our pages yesterday the thought came‘ that boys and girls need to check themselves on the question, “Have I been on time today at school, in returning home and in other duties?” Do you remember from Mother Goose: “A dillar, a dollar, a 10 o'clock scholar, What makes you come s0 soon? You used to come at 9 o'clock . But now you come at noon” I hope that song will never be true of any boy or girl who belongs to The Washington Post Knighthood ‘of Youth. The boy or girl who builds the good habit of being on time is in a fair way to win the stone of “Promptness” to place in his or her Castle of Knighthood. ” The question of being on time is one that starts very early in the Morn. ing. Do you get up on time each day? Or do you wait until the very last minute after the alarm clock has sounded its cheery warning for mother to call: “John, pen must get up!” How much nicer it would be to spare mother that call each morn-ng . O; course, it is hard to get out of a nice warm bed and rush over and close the window and start to dress. But, after all, if you do it, why you are building a habit which is not only going to build success for you in after life but will start each day for you without that dreadful sense of hurry which keeps you from doing your best work. ; The tardy boy or girl at schoo! will be suge to miss something very im- portant some day. It makes it véry hard for the tmchers, too, to have the pupils arrive late. ‘ The leader of a club for boys and girls made out this pledge to be on time, which I think should be adopt- ed by every circle and members “of The Washington Post Knighthood of Youth. Here it is: = 1. I must try always to be on time, not too late or too early. . . 2. I must try never to ask to be ex- cuséd for anything except sickness. 3. I must begin my work as soon as it is given out. 4. 1 must have my papers and all school work in at the time needed. 5. I must keep all the promises ! make, never expecting any one to wait for me. : 6. I must go in as soon as the bell rings. , 7. I must come when mother calle me. . 8.1 must go home right after school, unless mother tells me I can do otherwise. 9. I must be ready to go with others when the time comes for us to start. 10. I must answer at once when I am spoken to. Isn't that a fine set of rules with which to train ourselves to be alwaye on time. Cut it out and paste it jn your room where you can see it the first thing in the morning. To the Junior Artists I have been and always will be very interested in drawing. It ia a4 good pastime and could keep you busy for many an hour, especially on rainy days. Perhaps many of you expect to make art a life-work. It is not an easy job, and Many years of hard work is required before either you or I could succeed. I remember when our family first moved to Wash- ington, and I entered the third grade. I always drew, perhaps on rig paper or fy my persoral tehlete, - contalnty: “wae & thrfll.’, when’, the teacher, Jet.‘ me, draw ‘a. TaR’ on the Diackboard. ° DY The test way. *o get practice is to think of an idea, then put it over, as Ripley, creator of “Believe It or Not,” told me when I met him. The Junior Post is one of the best ways to express your thoughts in picture form—or writing. We certainly are lucky to such a wonderful paper in our own city. It is all right to copy some work, but only for prac- tice. But, it is best to create your own work. a ¢e Another wonderfu)] way to get prac- tice is to sketch from life. When riding, or hiking, it is a good idea to carry a sketch-pampbliet along. While I was sketching the cherry blossoms and Potomac River, I had many people stop and look at my work. Some of them even admired it. The distant Lincoln Memoria) sur- rounded by cherry blossoms made 4 wonderful picture, I saw many, many people taking snapshots under the cherry blossoms. They are a rare sight. So those who are interested. in drawing, try to get some of them in The Junior Post. I am sure you wit have them accepted, or,some of them, that is, where room permits. Don't forget the editor has a very hard time selecting the drawings, &c.

Songs Are Urged For Meetings of Knighthood Club “Hyninal of Youth” Serves to Express Creed . of Members. How are those Knighthood of Youth clués coming, the ones you've already formed and the one you intend to form? You know these school or neighborhood groups, which are a part of our great Knighthood of Youth organization can be made a big part of the fun of the whole thing. A business meeting. a pro- gram, funny stunts, dress-up affairs sometimes, eats, yells, songs. Why these are just a few of the things you can have at your regular meet- ings. By the way—have you thought of yells and songs? You know, ones that you can yell and sing at every meéeet- ing. You should have some by all means. Teke songs for instance. You'd he surprised how many letters have come in asking “What shall we sing at Knighthood meetings?” Well, good patriotic songs always are in order. Such airs as “America,” “The Star-Spangled Banner.” “The Battle Hymn of the Republic” and “America. the Beautiful,” we think o/ at once And, right here, it mighr be said. you should always close your meetings with at least one verse of “The Star-Spangled Banner” There is one song, though that seems to fit just right into Enight- hood of Youth meetings. It ts “The Hymnai of American Youth” and tne mame of the song is “I Would be True.”’ and really it could be taken- as the official song of any group Perhaps you already know it, but for those of you who don’t here it is: I WOULD BE TRUE. be true. for there are I would those who trust me; I would be pure, for there are those who care; I would be strong, for there is much to suffer; I would be brave, for there is much to dare; I would be friend of all—the foe, the friendless; I would be giving, and forget the gift: I would be huwm*'-+, for I know my weakness; I would look up and laugh end love and lift; I would look up and laugh and love and lift. The music is fine and easy to learn and after you have sung it once you'll want to sing it over and over again Just get hold of a copy and try it at your very next meeting. It carries your Knichthood ideals and expresses everything that is meant by a KEnight- hood of Youth creed.

APRIL 27, 1930. Through the courtesy of the National Child Welfare Keseviation of New York, which originated the Knighthood of Youth now being sponsored by The Washington Post, The Junior Post will publish serially the new Parents’-Book of the Knighthood of Youth, This book contains many valuable hints on the Knighthood and suggests a number of ways with which to make it effective in the Home, Circle and School. The second installment appears herewith: How Parents May Conduct Knighthood of Youth Clubs in the Home. Parents and children may form a Knighthood of Youth Club in the home. A good way to interest future club members might be to have a family story hour in the evening and tell a story about Knighthood. A suggested one follows: “Knights lived in Europe hundreds of years ago. There were no police in those days, so everyone looked to the knights for help. If a merchant were captured and put into a dungeon while robbers took his bags of gold, it was to some friendly knight to whom he looked for res- cue. Kings had no regular armies, but had todepend upon the knights to keep order in the land. “To do all the things that were expected of them, a knight had to be brave, skillful and strong, and they were expected to be loyal, gentle and true. They had to prove their eour- age by worthy deeds. Even kings were proud to be called knights. “All boys looked forward to the time when they could wear shining armor and ride prancing steeds, but they could become knights only after many years of training. At the age of 7 a boy became a page and. went to live in a castle -with some famous knight, who directed his training and became his ideal. There he would learn to ride, hunt, fish, wrestle and perform various dutiés about the castle. “At the age of 14 the page was made an esquire. Then he stayed close by his chosen knight, serving as persona] attendant, helping him put on or take off his armor, leading forth the horse dr carrying the knight’s shield and helmet. He also increased his exercises. Besides running and wrestling he had to learn to scale walls, spring over ditches and jump upon a horse while wearing heavy armor. When an esquire reached the age of 2) he was knightetl. This was usu-. ally done at some special occasion, such as a grand festival. Sometimes, however, when a youth did a special valiant deed the king of leader would ‘dub’ him knight on the spot. But always he had to take certain vows which meant that he would be generous, Benes, truthful and, in fact, in word and deed, a gentleman.” Many people today are known as “modern knights” because they do er service. might be called “The Knight of Electricity” and Lindbergh “The Knight of the Air.” Today there are many boys and girls who are “Modern.Knights.” They belong to a. club called the Knighthood of Youth. They are going on an imaginary journey called “The Quest of the Goodly Knights,” and- are overcoming their bad habits which they call “dragons.” Each one builds a Castle of Knighthood out of Castle Stones which he earns by various activities. In the Members’ Book the child will find listed many things to do. It is important that Par- ents help to keep him interested. .A few ways are suggested here: Hold weekly family club meetings at which all members of the family report on their adventures and their activities for which they expect to earn castle stones. Stories might be read and program numbers given at these club meetings. In place of a meeting at home, sometimes have an outing, a hike, a trip to a museum or at- tend some good picture show. ” Encourage other children to become club members and have neighborhood club meetings. Have a contest for club members to see which can complete his castle first. An interesting game has been worked out by two boys, one 11 and one 13. They follow the map in their Members’ Book and each day try to take the entire journey to the “Castle of Knighthood. ” Any act which takes them off the Knightly Highroad prevents them from reach- ing the Castle that day. After they have succeeded for a zertain number of days they earn a castle stone. One boy uses red and the other green to make this castle. One mother suggested that the children choose as an adventure, “I ate all the food placed on my plate.” Every two weeks the child, who has succeeded best earns a new cup or glass to ooeat at meal times, or some treat for which he is host to thé other children and earns a castle stone Parents will find many such uses for the’ Knighthood plan.

This«gives us 142,857. Multiply by two and get 285,714—which can still be read around the circle, starting at 2 Multiply by three and you get 428,571, which is also on the circle. The sam? thing happens if you multiply by four, five or six, giving you 571,428, 714,285 and 857,142. This makes every possible number that can be read in one direction, since there are only six digits. But multiply by seven and you get 999,999—-six nines. Now add the vairs of opposite numbers on the circle, 1 and 8, 4 and 5, &c., afid you also get six nines! The digits missing from the circle are 3, 6 and 9—forming two more nines.

Convenient trains every day from Washington to Chicago, including our all-Pullman No Extra Fare train—the CAPITOL LIMITED— which leaves Washington at 3:15 P. M. NE SENTENCE occurs again and again in the letters that come to our offices every year: “I was led to make my trip over your railroad at the suggestion of a friend.” This is not an accident. It is the result of a definite plan which was started several years ago. At that time we said to ourselves, “What can we offer people as an induce- ment to travel with us?” And we answered, “We can honestly try to give people a little more than they’ve paid for. “Their ticket calls for a ride on our railroad. We are required to provide a locomotive, an engineer, conductors, porters, various pieces of railroad equip- ment, and dining-car service. That’s what every railroad must provide. But let us try to give them an enjoyable trip ; an engineer who is doing his very best to start and stop his train without jolt, and a locomotive that will help him do it. Let us have tracks that are smooth, equipment that is modern and clean. Let us try to have conductors and por- ters who take pride in their work and who have a feeling of sympathy, kind- liness, and thoughtfulness toward trav- elers. And let us provide our passengers with meals that are really good.” People like to talk about railroads, and when they found out what we were try- ing to do they began talking to their friends. That’s one of the reasons our business has grown. So it’s you, after all, who have helped make our railroad more and more suc- cessful. You on your front porch, and in your club and church, and wherever you meet your friends. We appreciate it. When you ride with us, we'll endeavor to show you that we do. D. L.
