WASHIN HOOVER PLANS ~— TOKEEPLEGGE ‘ANOTHER YEAR Retention Will Be Reply to Chamber’s Attack on Farm Board. CHAIRMAN SYMBOL OF FARMER’S FIGHT Barnes Becomes Em- blem of Crusade Launch- ed by Business. MEN NOW WRITING _ DRAMATIC CHAPTER President Apparently Re- mains Strictly Neutral in Battle Between Friends. By CARLSLE BARGERON. President Hoover’s answer to the United States Chamber of Com- merce’s attack upon the Farm Board will be the retention of Alexander Legge as its chairman for another year. Mr. Legge, when he left the presi- dency of the International Harvester Co., only agreed to serve as head of the Farm Board for a year and that time is up about June 1. But the President has already prevailed upon him, it is understood, to continue at his post. One gets the impression, too, that not very much persuasion had to be used because Mr. Legge gives every evidence of getting more fun out of life than he has for some time. He has come to be looked upon as em- blematic of the farmer’s struggle and Julius Barnes, long a close personal friend of the President, has come to symbolize the fight on the board being made by business. Dramatic Chapter Written. The two men, indeed, are writing one of the most dramatic stories of ‘Mr. Hoover’s administration. It as become apparent now that when business was denouncing the old equalization. feé and urging the passage of the Parm Board nothing more was expected than what Mr. Legge calls just another board, one that .would issue a lot of pamphlets on how to curtail acreage. The farm act itself was a harmless enough looking thing. But it undoubtedly lends itself to a most aggressive administration, and that is what Mr. Legge has given to it. Resigning his $100,000 harvester presidency, he t up the farm act and promptly began to do things with it. It was only a matter of a few weeks before business, particu- larly the grain operators, were squawking that they were getting hurt. © | From this trade the opposition has grown to the point where the board was subjected to a most bitter attack at the recent annual meeting of the chamber, which ended with the pas- sage of a strong resolution. Legge’s Determination Grows. Apparently the only effect the res- olution had was to increase Mr. Leg- ge’s determination to stay with his job and> as a matter of fact, to add gest to it. The lanky, plain-speaking, hard- hitting Farm Board chairman has long since emerged as the outstand- ing figure. of Mr. Hoover’s adminis- tration. . The interesting thing about it all is’ that Mr. Barnes, although in the forefront of the opposition to Leg- ge’s administration, standing person- ally to lose money as he does be- eause of the board’s tendency to eliminate the private grain operators, is still on just as friendly terms with Mr. Hocver as he ever was. Mr. Hoo- ver made him the director of pros-/. perity sevetal months ago, after the market crash, But Mr. Barnes*has apparently not lessened the President's support of the Farm Board. There have been apocryphal! reports from time to time that Mr. Hoover Continued on Page 4, Column 3.

Washington, growing rapidly and with ever-expanding business and commercial! interests, is ready for a step which has been taken in most of the Jeading cities of the country—the amalgamation of all its trade, business and civic groups into one compact, smoothly func- tioning unit to increase the efficiency of handling the city’s affairs and give it an outstanding organization to which every resident may The Washington Post, with the welfare of the entire District in view, believes firmly that such a step’is near and is willing to support that belief with the suggestion that this amalgamation be brought about in as short a time as possible. Washington, for a great many years, due to the lack of any unified organization, such as. is now proposed, has been without any real political representation on matters of city-wide interest. paign toward such a group, must, perforce, be purely educational and in addition it must be widespread to take in every organization, asso- ciation and community now functioning. ’ Creation of this spirit of cooperation and backing for the pro- posed new council will not be difficult, judging from interviews with a number of Washington’s leaders already obtained by The Post.

Crotts failed to appear at the hear- ing yesterday, saying he was sick. Elgin, prosecution witness, said that Crotts mistook Detective Gravely for a bandit and fled to save more than $100 that he had in his pocket. Called upon to explain variances in his testimony yesterday, and that given recently in Police Court, when Gravely was tried and acquitted on charges of assault, Elgin admitted that he had failed to tell all the truth in Police Court. H. E. Brodie, headquarters detective, testified that Crotts had admitted to him that he fled prior to the shooting. because he feared arrest on an extor- tion charge. Swortzel’s testimony closely fol- lowed Elgin’s. Before the hearing closed Defense Attorney James O’Shea marshalled a long line of character witnesses, who told of Gravely’s hero- ism in France and his devotion to police duty, : The Trial Board was composed of Inspector Louis -J.

PARKER REJECTION FORECAST IN SENATE Opposition Believes It Has Made Sure of 51 Votes, Including Pairs. WATSON ADMITS DOUBT (Assoetated Press.) * The rejection of Judge John J. Parker, of North Carolina, as a mem- ber of the Supreme Court, was pre- dicted confidently yesterday by the Senate opposition as leaders in the contest. checked over their forces after a week of debate, but the jurist’s friends refused to concede defeat. {Tre Senate will resume the debate on Monday with a vote likely on Tuesday. Administration’ senators will pick up the fight at the opening of débate Monday. The Parker op- position, led by Senator Borah, (Re- ipublican), Idaho, believed after a care- ful survey of the line-up yesterday that 51 votes, including pairs, were against the nominee. However, Senator Overman,.(Demo- crat), North Carolina, who is leading the contest for Parker repliéd that the outlook, yesterday “is more en- couraging.” He believed one vote might decide the issue. He also took into account that a tie vote was pos- sible and he expressed confidence that in such an event Vice President Cur- tis would favor Parker. The Senate battle has been one of the most furiously contested of this session and even yesterday after a week of debate in which a dozen doubtful senators have held the bal- ance of power no one was sure enough of his ground to speak for publication on a definite prediction. All day leaders were busy in con- ferences sizing up the situation. At least four members were considered still in the doubtful class last night and upon those friends\of the nomi- nee, based their hope of gaining a majority of the 96 votes by Tuesday. The opposition expressed alarm over the effect of President Hoover’s efforts in behalf of Parker. Several Republi- cans on the doubtful list have been called to the White House.

SENATOR DECLINES TO GIVE STATEMENT Measure Now Réposing in Pigeon-Hole at Capitol, Awaiting Passage. By EDWARD T. FOLLIARBD. For seven weeks now, the new bill to liberalize the civil service retire- ment law has been lying in a Capitol Yesterday it began to look as though that pigeon hole might prove to be a death chamber. ‘Sponsored by President Hoover and indorsed by representatives of a ma- jority of the 400,000 Federal workers it would affect, the bill passed the House on March 4. Then, because. it carried the title of a bill that already passed the Senate, it was sent directly to a Sen- ate and House conference. The conferees met shortly after- ward. They failed to agree and broke up in a deadlock. And not a meet- ing has been held since. Meantime, with Congress scheduled to adjourn in a little over a month, the workers, many of them in dire need of relief, are becoming alarmed. They are wondering what is meant by the de- lay and the silence. Some of them, indeed, are muttering the word, “frame-up.” The two men most responsible for the bill are the chairmen of the House and Senate civil service committees, Representative Lehlbach (Republi- can), of New Jersey, and Sanator Dale .(Republican), of Vermont. “I am helpless,” said Mr. Lehibach yesterday. “The House passed the bill two months ago and it went to conference. In the conference the Senate conferees would not agree to it. When the meeting broke up it was with the understanding that the senator from Vermont would let me know when he would be wiling to meet again. “I have not heard from him since, ‘and I am completely in the dark as to the cause of the delay.” Thus he put it up to Senator Dale. “There is nothing I can say,” the senator declared. “If I did say any- thing it would just complicate mat- ters. “The matter simply will have to rest. There’ is nothing we can do now. I haven’t any idea what the House conferees will do.” Compromise Is Necessary. Interpreting these statements, they mean that the situation is this: The Continued on Page 3, Column 2. in| Chairman of the District | ; ' } ’ ' EFFICIENCY BUREAU that the lawyers here will cooperate SIMMONS WILL PUSH BILL FOR EXTRA JUDGES Subcommittee Has Changed Mind. ss FORMERLY OPPOSED GIBSON’S MEASURE Threatened to Block It Unless Bench Here Worked Harder. CLOCKING RECALLED Representative Is Convinced $40,000 Expense Will Aid Relief of Congestion. Executing an about-face, Repre- sentative Robert G. Simmons (Re- publican), of Nebraska, yesterday came out for the Gibson bill to pro- vide two additional judges for the local Supreme Court. Last February Representative Sim- mons, who is chairman of the sub- committee that handles the District appropriation’ bill, threatened to block the bill unless the present judges worked harder. He issued this threat after he had assigned Bureau of Efficiency inves- tigators to go into the courts and check up on the number of hours each judge was actually sitting on the bench. The report of the investigators, Chairman Simmons announced at the hearings on the appropriation bill, showed that the judges on an average worked less than three hours a day. Judge Siddons, a witness before the subcommittee, was trying to show that the congestion in the court was due, not to laziness on the part of the judges but to the vast amount of work and a shortage of judges. | “I emphatically say,” declared Judge Siddons, “that the judges have done all they humanly could to overcome this congestion.” “Now,” said Mr. Simmons, “I had just as soon tell you that there will be no more judges until we can get some evidence that the judges we have already are working harder down there than this record shows they are working.” So much for Mr. Simmons’ attitude in February. Yesterday he said he not only would vote for the Gibson bill, but would work for its passage. He had seen the ‘House leaders, he said, told’ them of his position, and was assured by them that the bill would be taken up within two weeks. “A committee from the District Bar Association has called on me,” Mr. Simmons said, “and has assured me with the judges and do everything possible to relieve the congestion. The judges also have promised to do their part in speeding things up. $10,000 Called Low Price. “In view of this, I-have told the leaders that I will support the bili Continued on Page 10, Column 1. Congestion in Courts May Jncrease in Fall Situation Attributed to Failure of Hoover to Fill McCoy Vacancy; Two Relief Measures Will Be Inaugurated Tomorrow. By DUNBAR HARE. With 1,129 civil cases already filed during the first four months of this year and with only two months to go before summer recess and suspen- sion of the regular calendar, the Dis- trict of Columbia Supreme Court faces the prospect of beginning the October term with even more conges- tion than marked the opening of the last fall term. The only bright spot in the pic- ture is the appearance of the criminal docket, but unless at least two judges can devote their time to trial of such cases, the situation there also will be bad, it was said. No actual figures were available yesterday as to the number of crim- inal cases now pending, but attaches of the office of United States Attor- ney Leo A. Rover pointed out’ that the situation is much better than it was last October and that there are only 116 persons in jail awaiting ar- raignment, trial, sentence or appeals in cases coming under the Supreme Court. ' The picture in the civil side of the court—equity and law divisions —however, is not so chereful. . Clerk Prank E. Cunningham was optimis- tic, stating that the situation should not bé much worse when the next October term begins than it was when the last one was inaugurated. ° I¢ .was pointed out, however, that both the equity and law branches of a YT ALAAVSE OADIW the court faced congested calendars then and that in some of the branches little progress has been made in clear- ing up the congestion. In the law side alone, if was stated, the calendar contains not a single case filed dur- ing 1929. This situation, it was said, is due largely to President Hoover's failure to appoint 4 successor to fill the va- cancy on the bench due to the resig- nation of Chief Justice Walter I, Mc- Coy. The chief justice resigned De- cember 9 last, but his post has not been filled. Other contributing causes are the illness of Justice Wendell P. Stafford and the number of lengthy and bit- terly contested condemnation pro- ceedings which are occupying practi- cally the entire attention of Justice Alfred A. Wheat. In order to make the best of the situation and in an effort to relieve congestion in some of the courts as far as possible two steps will be initiated tomorrow, and it is, poeneny that others will follow. The justices will realign their as- signments and in the criminal courts a new procedure will be put into ef- fect. The latter will bring witnesses in criminal cases to court at 9:45 o‘clock instead of 10 o'clock, as in the past, in order that matters pre- liminary. to a trial can be completed before the Justice got goes on the. bench, Continued on n Page 4, Column 2. ifn TWO MAJOR ITEMS ° IN PROPOSED TARI / Frances Saul Dead After Riding Mishap Socially Prominent Capital Woman Succumbs to Injuries Suffered While Training Horse for Wardman Park Saddle Club Show. Miss Frances Saul, 25-year-old daughter of the socially prominent Mr. and Mrs. B. F. Saul, of 2224 Wyoming avenue northwest, died Hospital, where she had been taken | following an accident Thursday afi- ernoon at the Wardman Park Saddle Club. While taking her horse through its gaits, in company with — several friends, the animal shied suddenly and, rearing up, fell back upon her, crushing her body beneath its weight. Although it was at first believed that her injuries were slight, hospital authorities announced Friday that her condition was critical and since that time her family had been in con- stant attendance at her bedside. Miss Saul at the time of her acci- dent was training her horse for the benefit show held yesterday at the Wardman Park Club, and even after she was hurt specifically requested at | 9:25 o'clock last night at Emergency | | that her horse be entered in the show. | AS. a consequence, her mount Was | allowed to run and won a blue rib- bon. Popular with the younger set, Miss Saul was especially identified with , Outdoor sports, and was a member of the Riding and Hunt Club and the Chevy Chase Club. She attended Sacred Heart Convent here and Eden Hall, outside of Philadelphia, and made her debut in Washington a few seasons ago. Besides her mother and her father, secretary of the well-known real estate and insurance firm of B. F. Saul & Sons, of 925 Fifteenth street, she is survived by two sisters, Teresa Saul and Mrs. Warwick Montgomery, jr.. and three brothers, John, Ber- nard and Andrew. Members of the family were at the bedside when °Miss Saul died. Funeral arrangements had not been made at a late hour last night. DR. REIGHELDERFER OPENS DIAL SERVICE 58,000 Telephones Changed to Latest System After First Call. ee VETERANS AT CEREMONY Ce uacaae newest telephone on tem, kriown as the dial system went | into effect at 11:50 o'clock last night when Dr. Luther Reichelderfer, prpsi- dent of the District Board of Commis- sioners, dialed his residence, Adams 9610, and talked with Mrs. Reichel- derfer. This marked the rapid progress in telephone operations since the first telephones were installed in Washing- ton in 1877. The first line connected the Chief Signal office of the Army with Fort Whipple, now Fort Myer, Va. The new system affects telephone | users connected with the District, and Metropolitan central | National offices. The cut-over of the 58,000 telephones connected with the dial central offices rving downtown Washington was made with clock-like precision. John C. White, “cut-over captain,” was informed everything was clear, and he relayed the message to men stationed at the main frame to pull on the ropes, which removed 40,000 heat coils from the terminal frame serving the manual central offices, and service was at once discontinued. When the operations were com- | pleted, Dr. Reichelderfer then dialed | his residence, officially opening the new service with his call. The Dial System has not taken complete hold in the District. About 3,000 telephones connected with the Franklin central office will continue to be operated manually for about two months. These coin box and party telephones.

Maj. Henry G. Pratt averred that no warrant had been sworn out and Lieut. Edward J. Kelly declared that he did not know of any warrant hav- ing been issued. Reports that the apprehension ol the killer was imminent are believed to have arisen from an investigation two days ago in Baltimore by District detectives. It was learned yesterday that Bal- timore police had furnished Inspector | William 8, Shelby with a picture of a man who had been once confined in a hospital for the criminally insane. A copy of the man’s. record, showing that he had been convicted on 61x occasions of criminal assaults, accom- panied the photograph.

PRESIDENT’S LETTER’ READ BEFORE V TR Democrats Criticize Note From Chief Executive as Type of Threat, (Associated Press.) The House, by big majorities, stood by President Hoover twice in the long contest over the tariff yesterday and refused to accept the ‘Senefe's export debenture amendment and modified flexible clause withdrawing execu- tive authority to make emergency changes in the rate structure. Party lines split on both votes, the debenture ‘being rejected, 231 to 16%, and the legislative flexible provision, 236 to 154 Republican leaders regarded the debenture vote as definitely eliminate ing this form of farm aid as a part of the Hawley-Smoot measure. feel that a compromise ultimately will be worked out in conference and approved by both houses with respeck to the flexible provision. May Return to Conference. The actions on the two contrae verted administrative provisions, placed in the bill by the Senate coale_- ition of Democrats and Western Reé- publican independents over the pra+ test of the President, came after an all-day debate. They ‘completed the House work on the eight major dias putes left unsettled by the conferees of the two branches and sent the complex document back to the Sen- ate, where it is expected to ” cone sidered next week. There is a possibility that the meage ure will be returned to conference first, but this had not been definite. ly determined last night. By unanimous consent the House agreed to return to conference for padjustment of the differences over the make-up of the Tariff Commig- sion. The House measure calls for @ nonpartisan fact-finding body of seven reporting to the President. The Senate measure provides for a bipare tisan commission of six, as at prege ent, but answerable to Congress uncer its new flexible clause. Concur in. Sugar Rates. Of the eight rates and ndministra- tive provisions reserved for separate votes in the House, only the Senate rates on silver and lumber, the Blease amendment exempting state and municipal cement from duty, and the debenture, flexible, and Tariff Commission proposals are subject: to further consideration. The House concurred in the Senate rate on su- gar and the Senate's free listing of logs and shingles, settling these dige putes. A ietter from President Hoover ad- dressed to Representative Tilson, of Connecticut, the Republican leader, in which the executive said he had not changed his views in opposition to the debenture farm relief plan, was read to the House by Mr. ‘Tile son.

The Constitution provides a way for President to consult with Con- @reks—by special message.” The President, who last April found ten objections to the original deben- ture provision in the farm bill, said the Norris modified detenture con- tained an “additional objection” in that the “export subsidies proposed Vary with different agricultural prod- ucts” and that tobacco growers under it “could apparently afford to raise ~ mission reports as unconstitutional because it would mean one Congress ay Over six ceaturies and ex ‘WARRANT IN BAKER their product and export it forthe | subsidy alone.” Text of Letter. The text of the letter follows: “I have your letter of inquiry as to whether I see any reason to change the views which I expressed on April 20 last year upon the so-called deben- ture plan introduced by the Senate into the tariff bill. I do not. “Some minor alterations have been myde in the plan which do not go to the essential fact that the prac- tical working of it will depress and mot elevate prices to the farmer. “The plan in the present bill pre- sents an additional objection in that the export subsidies proposed vary with different agricultural products and thus are widely different to dif- ferent farmers. “They vary from about 9 per. cent upon the cost of production of rye to apparently nearly 100 per cent- on tobacco. In the latter case, growers could apparently afford to raise their product and export it for the subsidy alone. Vote on Measures, “Since my previous statemenf, the Tariff Commission has estimated the cost of the plan to the Treasury,. if Put into operation and on the basis of present exports, at about $280,000,- 000 per annum.” Forty-eight Republicans and the one Farmer-Labor member, Kvale, of Minnesota, voted with 112 Democrats for the debenture, while 37 Demo- crats and 194 Republicans opposed it. Eight Democrats and 228 Republi- ¢€ans voted against the Senate flex- ible provision, while 12 Republicans and Kvale combined with 141 Demo- ¢crats for it. The eight Democrats in opposition Were Connery, Douglass, Granfield, and McCormick, all of Massachusetts; Drane, Owen, and Yon, all of Filor- ida, and O’Connor, of Louisiana. Republicans In Favor. The twelve Republicans for it were Browne, Cooper, Hull, Kading, Lam- pert, Peavy, Schneider, and Stafford, all of Wisconsin: Christgau, Minne- sota; LaGuardia, New York: Lambert- son, Kansas, and Sinclair, North Dakota. The constitutionality of both the nate and House flexible. provisions was questioned in the debate. Representative Beck (Republican), Pennsylvania, a former United States solickor general, in a letter read for him by Representative LaGuardia, urged acceptance of the Senate pro- Yision and termed the House amend- ment ‘a momentous and indefensfble change tn our form of Government.” “Beck reiterated the delegation of rate-changing power to the Executive Was unconstitutional, and predicted resultant harm to industries if “in the coming upheaval in politics, a free trade President should be elected in 1932.” Any Result Possible. While recognizing that President Hoover was a protectionist, Mr. Beck eaid, “No one can say with any cer- tainty who the next President of the United States will be, and the man is blind who can not see that, with the disruption of both political parties on the prohibition issue, any Tesult is possible.” Representative Chindblom (Repub- lican), Wllinois, described the safe- guard clause in the Senate flexible provision limiting Congress to act on the items dealt with in tariff com- legislating to restrict the powers of @ subsequent one. The fact that the tariff bill has been before Congress almost a year end a half was stressed by Repre- eéntative Treadway - (Republican), Masaschusetts, as an argument in fa- vor of letting the President change duties within the 50 per cent limits in existing law. Georgian Fears Power. ’ “Think of the potentialities of de- stroying the popular form of Govern- ment by permitting the President to make tariffs,’ asserted Representative Crisp (Democrat), Georgia. "y wouldn’t vote to delegate this power to either a Republican or a Demo- cratic President.”’ Representative Selvig (Republican), Minnesota, in a statement issued off the floor, said the bill likely to be passed “will be an industrial tariff, with certain limited groups of farm- ers getting the best deal they ever had, but with agriculture as a whole being left out in the cold for the most part.” “The House action in rejecting the debenture provision,” he added, “de- nies tariff benefits to producers of 44 per cent of our annual farm produc- tion.” Italians Fear Tariff Will Kill.

Ja |NOBERGH RETURNS: MKES RECORD HOF Airman Baffles Crowds by Circling One Field and | Landing in Another. OPENED NEW MAIL LINE New York, May 3 (N.Y.W.NS8.)-—— With a crowd of several hundred per- sons Tunning bewilderedly from one field to the other, the ever-elusive and prankful Charles A. Lindbergh brought his scarlet, black and gold Lockheed Sirius monoplane to a pef- fect landing at Roosevelt Field, No. 2, at 4:35 this afternoon after a record- breaking flight from Miami, Fila., having flown approximately 1,200 miles in 8 hours and 57 minutes. The crowd had originally waited at Roosevelt Field, No. 2, where Lind- bergh was expected to land. Seeing them from the dir he apparentiy changed his mind and flew to a land- ing at field, No. 1, about half a mile away. The crowd, undaunted, dashed on foot and by automobile to field, No. 1, but by the time they got there the prankish flier had taken off again and flew to another landing at field, No. 2. It as later explained that the flier had learned on landing at the first field that there was no room in any of the hangars there. Averaged 135 Miles Hourly. The “Flying Colonel” arrived at Miami Friday, completing his round trip to Cristobal, Panama, and back, on his inauguration of a seven-day air-mail service between New York and Buenos. Aires by the Pan-Ameri- can AirwaYs, Inc. He left Miami for Panama a week ago this afternoon. He took off 4rom that city on his re- turn trip at 7:37 a. m., daylight sav- ing time, and flew at an average of 135 miles an hour. The airman was in a jovial mood and posed wilingly for still and news- reel photographers. He said he had clipped two days from the mail serv- ice time by flying directly over the Caribbean. “It was leisurely flying from Miami,” he said. “I did not try for a record. I’d turned over the mail in Miami to another plane, so there was nothing to hurry about.” The airman departed somewhat from his custom by waiting to be asked question, and asked a few him- self. “Are there any more reports,” he asked, with a laugh, “about my mak- ing another transatlantic flight.” He was answered that there had been none to that effect. Laughts at “Accident” Story. ‘I under‘stand I was killed down in Panama,” h yelunteered again, and laughed heartily, flashing his char- acteristic smile. Routine busines swil Ibe his only occupation in the immediate future, he said. He added he would atténd the air show which opened tonight at Madison Square Garden, but just when he did not know. He left for New York-in his automobile, and it was understood he was to rejoin his wife at Englewood, N. J. The Lindbergh Mail arrived at New- ark, N. J., Airport ahead of the filer, at 11:25 a. m. today. Verne Treat was at the controls of the plane, which had picked up the mail from Lond- bergh at Miami Friday night, con- sisting of 205 pounds of the 211 flown ‘by him over the Caribbean. Treat was greeted by officials of all the largest air transport companies in the East, on the completion of the first round trip of the New York- Buenos Aires airmail service. As soon as the cargo was discharged an auto- mobile procession was formed to the New York postoffice, where they were greeted by the postmaster. Later the party proceeded to the opening of the air show at, Madison square aGrden. South Vies With West In Population Gains (Associated Press). The South against the West, features the 1930 census race. Four California cities have turned in returns showing 100 per cent or more increase, while the South has. reported three cities with in- crease of more than 100 per cent. The East has reported one such city and the Middle West one, the latter the city of 10,000 or more population which shows the big-# gest increase thus far reported in the. 1930 census. That city is Garfield Heights, Ohio, which re- turned a growth of 510.7 per cent. Increases in population of from 50 to 99 per cent have been shown in 12 Pacific Coast and Western cities, 13 Southern cities, five Middle Western cities and two Eastern cities. There have been decreases in population in ten Eastern cities in the last decade among those thus far reporting, three in the South, and two in the Middle West. .committee. MCORMICK INQUIRY WILL REACH ILLINOIS Nye Says Senate Group Is Likely to Hold - State Hearings in 10 Days. GRUNDY IS SEEKING Quiz (Associated Press.) Expectation that “within the next ten days” the Senate inquiry into campaign expenses of Ruth Hanna McCormick and Senator Charles De- neen will be carried to Illinois was expressed yesterday by Senator Nye (Republican), North Dakota, chair- man of the investigating committee. At the same time, Senator Nye said in an interview that he could see “no occasion now” for the Sen- ate’s special committee to go into Pennsylvania to inquire into expen- ditures in the Grundy-Davis fight. The committee has investigators in both States. Since it received written statements from Mrs. Mc- Cormick and the senator she defeated in the contest for the Republican nomination, a mass of additional in- formation has been submitted, un- sought. Senator Nye said it was “clear” that Mrs. McCormick’s account of $252,000 and Senator Deneen’s of $25,000 covered everything they them- selves spent in the race. But he stressed the committee} responsibil- ity to inquire into sums spent on their behalf by and through others. When they appeared before the com- mittee they were asked to list or- ganizations that supported them. “Indications that it will) be neces- sary t> go into Illinois to hold hear- ings are fast growing,” the senator said. “The committee will decide within the next ten days. If it does not go within this time it will sim- ply mean that what we expect has not developed.” The committee will meet tomorrow to receive officially a statement filed by Senator Grundy on April 9 be- fore the standing Senate elections In this Senator Grundy complained of activities of political combinations working against him in his race and demanded investigation.

ON VIEW NEXT FRIDAY Models of two important sections on the Mount Vernon Memorial high- way, the approach area at Mount Ver- non and the section including the grade separation bridges in Virginia south of the present Highway Bridge across the Potomac River, are to be placed in the rotunda of the United States Capitol. The Bureau of Public Roads, United States Department of Agriculture, has prepared the models. Installation will start tomorrow and the exhibit will be open to inspection next Friday. The models show not only the de- sign of the highway, but also the natural contours of the land and the shrubs and trees that will be planted in accordance with the landscape plan, To visitors to the Capitol, they will reveal, for the first time, the ad- vantages and prospective beauty of the memorial highway. They also suggest, says the Bureau of Public Roads, the possibilities of the pro- posed parkway system for Washington, of which the Mount Vernon Memorial Highway will be a part. Models Are Made to Scale. The models were executed by H. W. Hendley, chief model ma.wer of the bureau, under the supervision of the bureau’s engineer and landscape architect, and with the assistance of skilled shop mechanics of the United States Department of Agriculture. The model of the approach area at Mount Vernon is 15x18 feet; the one of the bridge, 15x24 feet. All trees, shrubs, fences, walks and buildings, aS well as the bridge structure and design of roadway, have been modeled to scale and have been colorec. to make an artistic arid realistic repre- sentation of the actual highway as it will appear after it is opened for traffic in 1932. The bridge south of the Highway Bridge is regarded as one of the finest grade separation . structures ever designed. It is on the Alexan- dria road, and “is a two-arch span over the Memorial highway, which at this point provides for two -road- ways, each 40 feet wide, separated by a parkway,. and accommodating eight lanes of traffic. This divided section extends, for more than a quarter of a mile, under and beyond the railroad bridge. The bridge has four ramps of long, easy curves, making for a continu- ous and safe flow of traffic between the Memorial highway and the Alex- andria road. At no point does one traffic lane cross another. Honeysuckle at Water’s Edge. The model shows that the water’s edge in the area between the two bridges will be planted with wild honeysuckle; the bridge abutments will be banked with rhododendrons and other shrubs, and the land area will be planted with elms and oaks and shrubs, providing frames of ver- dure through which the traveler on the highway may glimpse beautiful vistas of the Potomac. The approach area at Mount Ver- non lies in a, huge natural bowl, the contours of which have been pre- served in the design of the highway as shown in the model. A wide cir- cle permits the arrival and departure of cars and buses without confusion. Ample parking space for hundreds of cars has been so located and screened from the highway and the estate by trees and shrubbery as to avoid en- tirely the cluttered appearance which is usually associated with large groups of parked vehicles. The bu- reau believes ‘that the modelmaker, the engineer and the landscape ar- chitect have captured in their model, through design and planting, the har- mony and charm of the mansion house and of the grounds beyond the gates. FUNDS GIVEN TO BE INVESTIGATED | New York Capitalist Called as Next Witness Before Lobby Committee. IS LINKED WITH BISHOP (Associated Press.) An investigation of funds con- tributed by E. C. Jameson, New York capitalist, to Bishop Jar <= Cr-non, jr. of the Southern Methodist Church, for the 1928 ar -S 4 cam- paign in Virginia was determined upon yesterday by the Senate lobby commi**~e.

Largest Single Contributor. Mr, Jameson was described by Mr. lobby committee as the largest single contributor to the Hoover campaign. Mr. Tinkham said reports showed $172,000 had been donated. The Massachusetts representative, who is an outspoken wet, added that Bishop Cannon had explained that he acted as banker for the Virginia com- mittee, advancing it Nis personal fun“. when necessary and being re- paid when funds were available. After questioning Mr. Jameson, the committee will adjourn until Thurs- day, when F. Scott McBride, general superintendent of ~-the Antisaloon League, will testify. The adjourn- ment will be taken at the request of Senator Blaine (Republican), Wis- consin, the only wet member of the committee, who will be unable to be present Wednesday. P Will Present Records.

J., chair- man of the National Hospital Day Committee of the American Hospital Association, and Dr. Christopher Par- nall, of Rochester, N. Y., President of the American Hospital Association, called on the President at the White House.

The policeman arrested Harold Baer at the time O’Rourke is alleged to have made his escape. | DAY IN CONGRESS | SENATE. Not in session. Lobby committee decided to inves- tigate a contribution by E. C. Jame- son, New) York capitalist, to Bishop James Cannon, jr., of the Methodist Episcopal Church South, for the 1928 anti-Smith campaign in Virginia.

DELAYS MEXICAN VISIT (Associated Press.) Rejecting an opportunity to sit in the United States Senate by appoint- ment, Dwight W. Morrow announced that he would open his campaign for the Republican senatorial nomination from New Jersey within the next ten days with a view to entering the Sen- ate at the opening of the December session by election of the people. If nominated and elected in No- vember, Morrow will succeed Walter E. Edge, now Ambassador to France, during the short term from December, 1930, to March, 1931. He will be a candidate also for the six-year term beginning in 1931. Morrow announced that he had re- jected the offer of Gov. Larson and Senator Baird that the latter resign immediately to make way for Mor- row’s appointment. He said also that he had postponed until after the pri- mary election on June 17 his proposed trip to Mexico City. Some matters left pending when he sailed for the London naval conference required the ambassador’s attention, and a pre- viously announced plan indicated he would make the trip to the Mexican capital before opening his campaign. In announcing the changed plan, Morrow said, however, that he would fulfill his promise to Mexican officials by returning after the election. Under the present arrangement, Motrow will campaign for the nomi- nation as a member of the Diplo- matic Corps. In announcing his can- didacy last December, Morrow ex- pressed his purpose to resign from the State Department before enter- ing the home political campaign. Morrow gave no indication yesterday of the planks to be embodied in his State platform. These, it was under- stood, would be made public for the first time in his opening campaign speech to be delivered at Englewood, N. J., his home, some time within the next ten days. The exact date will be determined at a conference with campaign managers in New Jersey this week-end. The ambassador will go to New York: today and will spend several days attending to personal matters. He planned to make a trip to Am- herst College, in Massachusetts, to see his son, a student there. Morrow expressed a willingness to respond to any call from the Senate foreign relations committee consider- ing the London treaty, but has turned over to the Government his official records of the naval conference and wound up his connection with the American delegation.

The body was removed to the District Morgue where an autopsy will be performed. DR. REICHELDERFER OPENS DIAL SYSTEM Continued from Page 1, installed in the District, September 7, 1877. He was the first telephone operator in Washington and con- tinued in this capacity until 1879, when he became chief operator and later superintendent of operators. He resigned in 1908 to enter private siness. Another who witnessed the progress made by the telephone system of communication was Maurice Otter- back, president of the Anscostia Bank, who joined the company as a messenger July 2, 1879. He resigned in 1890. . Mrs. Maurice Otterback, too, was present. She became an operator in August, 1886, and was the first woman chief operator in the District. Lloyd D. Wilson, president of the Chesapeake & Potomac Telephone Co., introduced the veterans to the guest at a banquet which was held following the initial dial call. ; ; Ison in a brief talk gave an interesting history of the establish- ment of the telephone system in Washington, recalling that the first telephone directory was issued April 8, 1879, containing 123 names.

The figure for New York, 8.1 per 1,000, :is a little better than the average for all American policyholders combined, Lowest in Canada. ae The lowest death rate in any of the regions of two countries is that for the Western Provinces of Canada, 5.7 per 1,000. Each individual proy- ince in this group also registered a remarkably favorable mortality rate. This, however, is to be expected in a region where the population is, rela~- tively, a new and prosperous one. mortality in the Province of Mani- toba, 5.3 per 1,000, was lower than jin, any other . Canadian — province oF: American State, although closely folr lowed by British Columbia and, Minnesota, in each of which a. death- rate of 5.4 prevailed. - The death rates of eastern Canada are in marked contrast. Here, for the combined population of Novae Scotia, New Brunswick, Ontario and Quebec, a rate of 9.6 per 1,000 was recorded. In Quebec the figure was 11.3 per 1,000, the third highest in either country; in New Brunswick, it was 10.6 and in Nova Scotia, where the mortality from tuberculosis runs very high, it was 9.9. Ontario, on the other hand, with a death rate of 7.2, shows @® much better record than most American States. The Pacific Coast States had the best United States regional health: record with a mortality rate of 6.5 per 1,000 and Washington made the best showing, 5.6 = 1,000.

The highest regional deatlx rate, 10.2, was recorded in the South tral region, the mortality in all of the States in this group be- ing far above the average.

Investigation of Communist activi- ties in the United States by two House committees was proposed yes- terday as the official reaction in the Capital to the disclosure of alleged Gommunist documents in New York City. } Chairman Johnson, of the House /Mtamigration committee, who long has ativocated more stringent legislation te. deal with aliens entering the country Nilegally, requested the Labor Department to furnish available in- formation On the manner of entry of some 30 persons named in the docu- ments made public in New York Friday. ‘ava veciolng the belief that the re- ‘wal of visitors’ permits makes it esible for many undesirable aliens remain here indefinitely, Johnson indicated his committee would make a study of the subject. Along with this, the committee will inquire into réports that many Russians leave the trains between New York City and Montreal, after being admitted at New YOrk for passage through this country to Canada. Almost simultaneously an an- nouncement came from Representa- tive Fish (Republican), New York, that he had obtained assurances that his resolution’ proposing that & special committee delve into Com- mhunist propaganda activities would be acted upon favorably by the rules committee within a few days. -Chairman Snell is out of. the city, but Mr. Fish said he expected quick action when the chairman returns, probably early this week. The com- mittee probably will make his meas- ure more comprehensive and increase the fund for the study from $5,000 to $25,000, Mr. Fish said.

White House spokesman any more, nor does he seem to bask in the White House glow as he did in the days of yore. However, he should.

FERE should be a place at, the table for Simeon, so that he could just drop in any time and feel at home. He should never have to wait for an invitation. He should, indeed, be in every way and respect part and parcel of the household. Because if thére was ever a man to carry the administration load with the consistency of Mr, Fess he does not come very readily to mind. In and out of season, in fdir weather or rain, he is on the floor with the administration’s fight, and whether he is on the right side or not.

Thus, unless Sen- ator Dale yields. to Mr. Lehlbach, there must be a compromise. But—and this is the- point that how is being made by the employes— if there is to be a compromise, there first must be a meeting. And, as has been said, no meeting is in sight. Other legislative deadlocks nave frequently been broken by a good, heart-to-heart talk between the statesmen involved on the one hand and the President on the other. Hoover Could Help Situation. If President Hoover would step in now and bring about such a confab, the result, it i believed, would be extremely helpful. The genesis of the present dead- lock goes back to the time the Senate first passed the Dale bill. Under the terms of this measure, the maximum retirement annuity was increased from $1,000 to $1,200; retirement was made optional after 30 years service, and the age of retirement was lower- ed by two years. The Senate passed this Dale bill, Or one substantially like it. no less than three times. And finally, in the os Congress, the House also passed Then President Coolidge killed it with a pocket veto. , Action at Present Session. At this session of Congress, the Senate again passed the Dale bill and sent it to the House. While the measure was before the House civil service committee, Chairman Lehl- bach introduced a substitute, an en- tirely new bill. Eventually it developed that thi Lehlbach bill was in ryt a Hower. or White House bill. The President had long been a student of retire- ment. He felt that the new bill would provide a really scientific system of retirement, and he threatened to veto failed to provide such a system. The Dale bill placed $1,200 as the maximum annuity that an employe might draw.

Provision of Lehibach Bill. Thus, in the new Lehlbach bill, it is provided that some of the em- ployes eventually may draw an an- nuity of $3,000 or more. This is made possible by the “ton- tine,” a feature whereby a part. of the employe’s contribution to the re- tirement fund is placed in a separate Federal fund. The higher the em- ploye’s contribution to the retire- ment fund, ‘the higher will be his Share in the tontine fund. And in the end, this tontine money will have much to do with the size of: his annuity. The new Lehlbach bill was not al- together popular when it was first introduced. In the hearings, only one large~ group indorsed it—the Federation of Federal Employes, headed by Luther C. Steward. Presi- dent Steward declared that the Lehl- bach bill did all that the Dale bill did, and then some. Alcorn Changes Attitude. Robert H. Alcorn, chairman of the joint conference on retirement, at first opposed the bill, but later came out for it after Chairman Lehlbach had offered to make certain changes in the méasure. ~ Mr. Alcorn had declared that under certain forfeiture provisions in the bill, employes would lose considerable | sums through the working of the ton- tine system. When these provisions were modified, he and his followers swung into line, and a few days later the bill was To save time the new bill was tacked on to a title of the ole Dale bill, which already had the Senate. Thus, instead of being sent before the Senate for a vote, it was sent directly to a Senate and House conference. Then came the deadlock and situation that exists today. GORDON WARNS DRY LAW SPECIAL AIDS Continued from Page 1. Senate Office Butlding and started into thé building with several quarts of gin neatly wrapped in a package. “Have you a badge or other cre- dentials?” Justice Gordon asked. “No!” replied Gardiner. “I’m not a special agent, but a special em- ploye.” “Then. what right did -you have to arrest this man?” the justice asked. “I didn’t arrest him. I merely held him until another agent arrived on the scene and placed him under ar- rest.” “You had no right to do that,” said the judge. “And don’t you ever do it again. Don't you ever lay hands on another. man in such cir- cumstances .”’ The other agent referred to by Gardiner was Ralph R. Aiken, spe- clal agent of the prohibition unit. who had placed Cassidy under arrest as the latter left his automobile and started across the street in the direc- tion opposite from that taken by Gately. -Both men, as a result of their arrest, were indicted jointly under the Jones act. While the motion to suppress was filed only in connection with the case of Gately it also in- cludes Cassidy inasmuch as he was arrested at the same time, and in event evidence is suppressed against Gately the’ charge against Cassidy also wil] be dropped. A similar plea filed on behalf of Cassidy in another similar case also is involved. Attorney Myron Ehrlich contends that the agents had no probable cause to erest Gately or Cassidy and that the seizure of liquor and the subsequent search of Cassidy's auto- mobile was illegal. The Government, through Assistant United States Attorneys Neil Burkin- shaw and James R. Kirkland, con- tends that Cassidy is a known boot- legger and thet his presence in the vicinity of the Senate Office Build- ing gave the agents probable cause to arrest him and his companion. Cassidy first came into fame several years ago when seized in the Senate Office Building and charged with violating the prohibition law. At that time Cassidy became known as the ‘| “the man-in the green hat.” Heering on the motion to suppress was begun several weeks ago and in- terrupted until yesterday. It is scheduled to be concluded tomorrow. Justice Gordon yesterday in a ver- bal statement from the bench reiter- ated what he said at the first session of the hearing when he declared that because a Man was a; known bootleg- ger did not give police or prohibition agents warrant to arrest him when- ever they saw him on the street with & package. “Why if that were the case,” said the justice, “a man could be convict+ ed in the court, pay a fine, walk out with a package and be subjected to immediate arrest.” .. The justice said that the ‘only way a policeman or agent could be abso- lutely sure that a package contained liquor was to see it before it was wrapped up. He qualified this to state that an officer might suspect a bottle was in a package if it were wrapped so as to make the shape evi- dent. ‘Gardiner -in his testimony stated that he had been trailing Cassidy for several months, and had been watch- ing his movements around the Sen- ate Office Building. He declared that the day Cassidy ‘and Gately were ar- rested he and Aiken had been as- signed to cover Cassidy's movements by W. A.

FOX, With the London naval treaty about to be subjected to the acid test of senatorial approval, and with hearings before the naval affairs committee to begin tomorrow, it is now ascertained that there will be serious opposition to unconditional ratification of the pact. A relatively small group of senators, backed by some of the most neted American naval authorities, will form the nucleus of this opposition, and their attack will be seyeral well- defined lines based on their analysis of the treaty text. In the first place, it will be claimed that the consultative pact idea has not after all been completely eliminated and that qa “joker” in the escape clause commits the United States to a form of compulsory c ultation re- specting the political affairs of Eu- rope. Western senators, and particu- larly the senators from California, are understood to be concerned about this feature, and a determined effort will be made to eliminate the language which is construed as-a form of‘con- sultative pact. The language is found at the very end of Article XXI, which is the ¢es- cape clause and reads as follows: “And the said other powers shall promptly advise with each other through diplomatic channels as to the situation thus presented.” Western Senators’ Interpretation. whereby any one of the three pow- ers may exceed the treaty Iimita- tions if it regards its security threatened by an outside power. It \is conceded that this clause was in- sisted upon by the British admiral- ty and that its sole purpose is to permit Great Britain to build in ex- cess of the limitations in case France carries out her contemplated naval construction program. The consul- tative pact feature at the end of Article XXI therefore concerns only the United States and Japan, it Is emphasized. Western senators, in some _ in- stances, have construed the language in the escape clause to bind un- questionably the United States to advise with or consult Japan re- specting any British-French contro- versy which may arise out of Brit- ish charges that her security is threatened by France. This, the senators assert, is compulsory con- sultation concerning European. af- fairs of a political character, and likely to involve America in the po- sition of assisting a British program of coercion and likely to offend France as well as other continental powers. Japan-U. 8S. Status. The word advise seems harmless enough, it is further suggested, but ih international diplomacy every word is chosen with great care. According to the Century Dictionary the word advise means “to také counsel—to \join others in deliberating—to seek the advice of.” Senator Hiram John- son, of California, has already indi- cated that he does not desire to have the United States pledged to seek the advice of Japan before being free to deal with a situation resulting from British determination to escape from the treaty limitations. Furthermore, it is contended that if America agrees to join Japan in deliberating over an Anglo-French political crisis, it follows as a matter of course that America will take no action during the deliberations until Japan and America have agreed as to what action should be taken. Amer- ica might desire to maintain parity by keeping pace with British in- creases but Japan, it is suggested by several senators, might advise against an American building program to match the British. Great Britain might announce a new cruiser build- ing program and America might de- sire to build 10,000 ton 8-inch gun cruisers but Japan might advise against such large ships. Experts Will Testify. Senator Robinson, the minority leader and delegate to the London conference, will assume the burden of defending the language of the escape clause. Realizing that there might be opposition to the consultative feature involved, the American delegation asked Senator Robinson to stand sponsor for this clause and to have a part in framing the language. The hearings tomorrow will speed- ily develop the controversy among naval authorities as to the relative merits of the 6-inch and 8-inch gun cruisers. One particular point will be stressed in connection with the re- placement program for cruisers. By building 6-inch gun cruisers America will have virtually all new ships of that category in 1936. The British 6-inch ships will be nearing the ob- solete stage and ready for replace- ment. Should the British admiralty decide to replace these ships with 10,000-ton 8-inch gun cruisers, there would be no violation of the spirit of the treaty and America, with practi- cally no ships to replace, would be compelled to rely upon the smaller cruisers, Testimony of the naval experts is to be given to the naval affairs com- mittee in public tomorrow morning.

May 3 (A.P.)— The League of Women Voters today | placed itself solidly and hctively be- | hind the London naval disarmament | treaties at today’s closing session of the tenth anniversary convention, at which feminine enfranchisement wag celebrated. A resolution of hearty support was unanimously voted, supplemental ac- tion pledging the league to further all national legisiation relating to international naval reduction trea- ties.

Health Service, Jobless Compensation Study, Support of the pending women's ‘citizenship parity act, “without ham- | pering amendments,” was unani- 'mously voted. In the face of yesterday’s earnest | plea of Mrs. Florence Kelley, of New York, executive secretary of the Na- ,tional Consumers League and for more than 40 years a labor leader, the league voted to continue to study, but not to support, unemploy- ment compensation acts. Then, with brown portfolios filled with legislative projects for two years to come, the 1,000 women conven- tioners left a Louisville already gala with preparations for the Kentucky Derby.

COURT CONGESTION | MAY GROW IN FALL | Centinued from Page 1. This move has been conceived by United States Attorney Leo A. Rover,| who has asked lawyers and witneses | to cooperate and make the move a) success. Due to the fact that Justice Wheat, who presides over Equity Court No. 2, has been busy with condemna- tion proceedings, @ number of press- ing cases have accumulated in that) division so, beginning tomorrow, Jus- | tice Jennings Bailey, who since Oc- tober has been presiding. over Cir- cuit Court No. 2, will take over Equity Court No. 2 and Justice Wheat will move his condemnation cases to Equity Court No. 1, which for the past several weeks has been presided over by Justice William Hitz. Justice Hitz is scheduled to return to Criminal Court No. 2, which he deserted to?relieve pressure in the court assigned to Justice Stafford. Justice Frederick L. Siddons will continue to preside over Circuit Court No. 1, the only law court that will be in session, while Justice Peyton Gordon will continue to handle Crim- inal Court No. 1. These steps, it is thought, will help matters to a degree, but do not De- lieve that they will do much more than relieve immediate pressure. What is really needed, it is said, is for President Hoover to fill the va- ecancy caused by Chief Justice Mc- Coy’s resignation, and for Congress to rush through the bill that provides two additional judges far the court. If that.is done and the appointments made before Congress adjourns, or even by the recess appointment meth- od the court will face bright pros- pects when the summer recess is over, court officials say. They state that at least nine fudges are needed for the court under pres- ent conditions, and point out that only one has been added since 1922, despite the phenomenal increase in civil cases alone. ’ A check of the records of the court shows that since 1922 there has been an 80 per cent increase in law cases and a 29 per cent increase in equity PRESIDENT PLANS RETENTION OF LEGGE Continued from Page 1. threw up his hands at something or another that Mr. Legge has done. But there has been no outward evi- dence that the chairman has been ehecked in the least. Reason of Chamber Grievance, . The board has made many modifi- cations of its policy from time,jo time lof its own volition, or as Mr. Legge says, as it has gone along and learned, For one thing there is to be no more pegging of the market as was done when the board went into the wheat pit and bought wheat outright or when it loaned $1.25 a bushel when the market price was lower than that. Wheat loans are to be made in the future at slightly below the market price but closer to it than the private trade is willing to loan. It is apparently such as this that is the most serious grievance now of the Chamber of Commerce. William Butterworth; president of the chamber, issued a statement ex- plaining the meaning ..of the organi- zation’s resolution against the board. He thought there was a misunder- standing as to the chamber’s attitude but there is none. The chamber wants the board bereft of that $500,000,000 with which it has to operate. The chamber is “opposed. to any permanent policy in the employment of public funds for the purpose of participating in business in competi- tion with established agencies.” Considerable speculation in this re- culture Hyde's remarks before the chamber that personally he did not see the need of the fund. There was wonder in some quarters if this was not the entering wedge ultimately to do away with the fund and make the board what Mr. Legge calls just an- other agency. There seems to be no evidence, however, that this is the case. Woman Faces Dry Charge. cases. Federal District Court cases have increased correspondingly in both civil sections, although exact figures are not available.

Every one of these workers is a part owner of the business—every one of them is a stockholder. They have backed the quality of their productwith their savings. ’ > Fem Mivsti-we Seve preeed ott through the world. We have plants in Los ‘Angeles, Boston, Fall River and New Bed- ford. We have plants in Canada and in Eng- land. We have a plant at Singapore—in the heart of the East indies—so that we may buy the raw rubber where it is grown. We have offices and expert buyers in every impor- tant rubber growing center in the world. y ’ v i - When the British Rubber Restric- fion Act sought to raise the price of rubber, Firestone fought it practically alone and un- aided. And, in order that this country might sees again have to beg its rubber from a foreign power, Firestone planted an out- post of American life in Liberia on the west” coast of Africa—the Negro Republic foun- ded by Americans in the days of President Monroe. There we have'a million acres to in- sure that America may always have rubber ata fair price. ne The first tittle shop could make a dozen tires a day. Today we.can make eighty thousand a day. That is progress. We will not make a tire that is just a tire. Every @ tire must express all that we know about tires and its finess for its use. That is why we have progressed. ’ ' Lf Such is the spirit which has taker Firestone into absolute tire leadership. Such is the spirit which maintams the leadership. Never has the leadership faltered. The rec- ord of Firestone is the record of fhe march of improvement in fhe fire industry. For Firestone brought out for automobile use: ’ a. 1h. e —The first straight side tire —The first rabber non-skid tread mountable rim —The first balloon tire 1 ‘ ae Each of these five inventions marked a new era in tire building. Together they made possible the safe and economical high speed motoring of today. ° ’ ’ ' ’ An automobile is no better than its fires. ' ‘ ' ' Firestone has: —kept ahead of the tire makers. —kept ahead for the automobile makers. | —kept ahead for car owners in safety, comfort and economy. s , ‘ ‘ ‘ Thatisleadership.| The ultimate test of leadership is performance. i € 388 —Firestone Gum-Dipped Tires hold all.the world s records on road and track for safety, mileage, speed and endurance. —for ten consecutive years they have won the 500 mile Indian- —were on the winning cars in the Pike’s Peak Race—where a slip meant death. —were on the Studebaker car which on a board track in At- lantic City in 1928 went 36,- 000 miles in 26,326 asinutes. —wereon the GM.

Each year we have learned more about tires. Each year we have put that added knowledge into our tires to give added values. ' ' ’ t And so we can say, with all the facts before us, that, while there are many good tires, the best is Firestone. “

Many of these articles were exceptionally well written and so the editor feelg that perhaps this word of explanation may not be amiss. ‘ The stories for which prizes have been awarded, as printed below, are a remarkably true reflection of the opinions of the majority who submitted ‘YOUNG PARENTS BEST critical reviews of the story recently published, in seria] form, in daily and Sunday editions of The Washington Post.

Mrs. Blanche Marsh, 1280 Neal street northeast, winner of the second prize, ascribes the selection of her review tothe fact that she merely tried to put down her honest impressions of the story and its writer. Incidentally, Marsh is her maiden name. Her husband is an employe of the United States Civil Service Commission. Miss Gwendolin Taylor, who was awarded the $50 prize. was the last with whom the reporter was able to get in touch.

And they are only too familiar with the misfits resulting from mal- wmdjustment. Their aim is a, civiliza- , tion based on sound minds in sound | bodies. This aim can never be at- tained as long as youth is.-swamped with overhwhelming difficulties when it first enters adult ‘life. “The dangerous age consists of two distinct periods—adolescence and the early adult years. Each has its. own roblems, its peculiar pitfalls. At 15 ys and girls have barely left their whildhood; yet the disturbing wine of @dolescence stirs within them. They gradually awake to new emotions, to terious process, ‘growing started. ) More Dangerous for Girls. up,’ has | “Adolescence is a more trying time for the young girl than for the boy. The physical changes affect the girl's pwhole being to a far greater extent ‘than they affect the boy. As her en- tire physique feels the strain, she is apt to become run down. Often she shows anemia. The result of this may be seen when we consider the frequency with which tuberculosis attacks girls between the ages of 15 and 19. Thus it becomes essential that young girls get plenty of sleep, Plenty of fresh air and. plenty of | *wholesome food. Too many social ac- ARivities making for late hours should ‘he avoided scrupulously if only on ‘the grounds of health. “Heart disease is the second high- est cause Of death in the adolescent age group.

As both. ailments are very | largely the aftermath of infectious | ‘diseases during childhood, this fact | “makes us realize that health in child- | hood means health in adolescence ‘and in early adult ‘ife. » “We now come to early adult life.

FIRST PRIZE THIRD PRIZE By GWENDOLIN TAYLOR. OUTH! This is the state of. be- ing which permeates the book “When Vagabond Dreams Come by Rudy Vallee. The dreams, typical youth and that is the self-confi- vagabond dreams’’ come true. | The author’s detailed descriptions | | ing. Sheer admiration is due for his} adeptness in revising the words and them popular with his audiences.

From a literary viewpoint the book | is decidedly mediocre. Lack of choice | in words and a. general carelessness | with no apparent style can be for- | given, however, when overshadowed | by the redeeming features—ease and naturalness. Regardless of any adverse criticism | made there is this to be remembered: the author recognized his ability, uti- his talents, and now that he ; to say, “Congratulations, t SECOND PRIZE By MRS. BLANCHE MARSH. NSTRUCTIVE! Fascinating! Mas- ] terly! Those are strong adjectives, but it takes just that to begin to describe Rudy Vallee’s story. Vallee | has applied to its construction the Same infinite pains and the consum- mate treatment which mark his phe- nomenal musical career. . Even those who had to listen to Rudy's embryo tootings on the saxo- | | phone will forgive him after reading | | this interesting autobiography. The story is sincere and _ inspiring, | and there runs through it a vein of | delightful naivete which the. most | Vallee’s endeavor ‘throughout has been primarily to please the public rather than to exploit himself. This has proved such a welcome novelty that success hag resulted as his just reward. . Rudy’s unusual vealing so many of his “secrets,” which undoubtedly will be eagerly utilized by mediocre competitors, is typical of the man. He has attained his place in the sun by sheer ability and hard work and need not fear | competition. | The story is far removed from the | sentimental gushings which so often come from our idols. On the con- | generosity in re- | trary, it is a manly portrayal of a/| that they are likely to become parents | and should keep fit. Parents may help in this respect. They should in- sist on a certificate of health from both parties in a contemplated mar- } } ' | | i | hard fight to succeed and is sure to} make his radio audience all the more | | appreciative. The keynote of his’ intelligent and | Sympathetic work is fittingly ex-. pressed in his concluding words: T By J. C. RANSOM. Vallee is mighty interesting, and that is the final test of literary merit. To hold the reader's atten- tion, to stir his pleasure, to stimu-, late him by suggestion and thrill him by incident, what do you want more? That Rudy has done and done well. It would be an easy thing to find fault with this life story: for the ego is prominent, details are wandering and disjointed, Rudy is prolix, and his opinion and comment open wide gates to dissenting argument. How- ever, when that is disposed of, a pic- ‘ture is presented of a mighty busy young man, who knew what he want- ed and went out and took it. For sheer industry, pluck, persistence and accomplishment few have surpassed Rudy Vallee. I am ready to forgive him for play- ing a walling saxophone, toning songs through his nose, and imitating a crooning Negro mammy singing a child to sleep. I can ‘overlook his able defense of detestable jazz—at best, not music, just rythmic noise— and give him praise for a most en- livening story clothed in the glory ,and spirit of youth. Inadvertently, Rudy. Vallee has done a greater service to education than he will ever do’ to musical art. He has effectively spiked the guns of those who affect to believe that col- lege training is of little’ use to the practical man. Rudy Valee has risen to explain that. a college degree is of immense practical benefit, even to a saxophone player who yearns to write a great song.

Because of the length of playing time no one on the modern stage has seen fit to bring back all the scenes fash- ioned by Shapespeare, until now. The playing time is from 2 until well after 5:30 in the afternoon. Thus are the lovers of Shakespeare given their money’s worth—and more—by Walter Hampden. A goodly crowd attended yesterday afternoon’s performance — and Mr. Hampden was in fine fettle; reading his lines with high. intelligence and profound effect. His is the third “Hamlet” presented here this season —and quite an event for more than one reason. "Twill go down in local stage history as the last presentation of its kind on the stage of Poli’s— to be torn down this summer. The supporting company for Mr. Hampden is made up of seasoned players—men and women who are Shakespeareans at heart; who bring back much of the glory of bygone days in the theater, when Shake- spearean actors were held to be beings somewhat apart from other mortals— if for their forensic ability alone.

More, even with the long script the action moves apace and never lags —and the final touch is something long to be remembered; Hamlet borne aloft on the shoulders of the soldiery; a martial funeral after the tragic deaths.

Lured by herring schools within the bay, 10,000 fishermen aboard 2,000 boats put to sea from Odomari, a fishing town of southern Saghalien. A majority of the male population of the town was aboard the boats. Without warning, the typhoon struck with terrific violence. Some boats went down quickly. Others were swamped as they ran for the harbor, while still others were smash- ed upon the rocky shores of Odoa Mari Bay. One fourth of the boats were lost. The typhoon came at the peak of a properous fishing season. Along the beaches, a rich catch was drying. This was swept away. At the height of the storm, land- slides fell from the bluffs upon the | city, destroying numerous homes of those who had lost fathers or sons.

FOREIGN FINANCING PROVES DUTLET FOR AMERICIN DOLLARS Net Exportation Thus Far jin 1930 Exceeds / $232,000,000. f f AJOR PART LEAVES | COUNTRY AS GOODS Economists Regard This’ as Good Current Indicator of Business. By A. H. ULM. The surplus American dollar which was inclined to stay at home and flirt with the stock market last year is apparently recovering its postwar liking for foreign scenes. According to Dr. Ray. Hall, of the United States Department of Commerce; 4 total of more than 8%338,000,000 of foreign financing was done in the United States during the first three months of this year. This was the largest volume since the second quarter of 1928. But about $106,000,000 of the total for the first quagter of this year was for refunding operations. There was a net exportation of more than $232,000,000. This was less than that for the first quarter of last year. But, since the total of foreign financing bere in March was more than double that of January, it is in- ferable that exportation of capital is again expanding. Many economists regard this as one of the best of cur- rent business indicators. For most of the dollars loaned abroad really leaves the country in the form of goods. Exportation of capital from the United States has been an outstand- ing phenomenon of recent times. In 1914 only $37,000,000 went out in the form of investments in foreign se- curities. Up to that time the net flow of capital always had been to- ward the United States. Since then more than $12,500,000,000 of Ameri- can money has gone into foreign se- curities other than ones held by the Government on account of war debts. Flotations during the five years pre- ceding 1929 represented net nominal 000,000,000 annually. The maximum during a year to date is $1,375,000,- 000, attained in 1927. Exportation of capital thus con- noted relates. only to investments in foreign securities publicly offered in the United States. Large quantities chased privately in the United States, and Americans have bought and set vp many establishments abroad with- out floating securities. Investments of foreign money in the United States still are considerable, and some .of these have been made since the war. A recent study by Canadian authori- ties led to the finding’ that nearly #1,000,000,000 of Canadian money is invested in the United States. But American holdings in Canada are five or six times as great and are increas- ing rapidly. The total of’ American holdings abroad is now not less than $15,000,- 000,000, and the larger part of these} represent exportation of capita] since the end of the war. Never before did money go out of a country on such a scale. Hitherto the British were the greatest exporters of capital. But after centuries of investment in all parts of the world, the British ex- ternal holdings are estimated as of about $20,000,000,.000. The total of those holdings was not greatly af- fected by the war: In 1929 the British were fairly close seconds to Americans in under- writing external securities. It was the first time since the war began that the British moved toward their prewar record in the matter of for- eign investing. And international financing was relatively small for all the world in 1929. This was because of the high interest rat revailing during most of the “year, a&d those rates were in turn a reflection of speculative activity in stocks? investments of American capi foreign securities in, 1929 totaled les than half the average of the preced- ing four years. Increased Gold Importations. Reflections of that falling off are im the increased importations of gold and probably in the recent decline in the volume of goods sold abroad. Since the war the export trade of the United States has been in value of goods about twice and in volume about one-fourth above the prewar average, while the international trade of all the world averaged scarcely above the prewar volume. Many fac- tors contributed to this preeminency of the United States. but the chief one, no doubt, was the exportation of capital. — A large proportion of the goods sent out of the United States since the vestments in foreign securities. Im- war ratio with exports, but the “favorable” trade balance of prewar times, when the country had to ex- port more than it imported in order to take care of its obligations as a debtor nation, has been maintained, and, as a whole, increased somewhat, despite the fact that ordinarily a creditor nation, as the United States has been since the war, must import more than it exports. Lots of things enter into-the shap-. ing of a trade balance. But when due allowance is made for all, the invisible as well as the visible, it remains quite obvious that the con- tinuance of a’“favorable” one for the United States in recent years has re- lated directly to exportation of capi- tal. Canada. now apparently this country’s best customer abroad, “buys” about twice as much as she sells to the United States. The dif- ference is taken care of in most part by the large volume of American money—nearly 300,000,000 in 1929 alone—going into Canada for perma- nent investment. In truth, however, most of the exporting thus made pos- during the first quarter this year was the volume of tions by Ameri and semi- Free Tradein Empire, Walled In by Tariff. Rising English Issue New Phase in Protectionist Question Raised by Conservatives Stirs British-Labor Party Is Answering With “Free Corn, Free Food”—Dominions Oppose. By DAVID RANKIN BARBEE. Our English cousins seem to take their politics much more seriously than we do here in America. With their well-known bull-dog tenacity, they hang on to an idea, mull over it, quarrel about it, and then take it to the country to get their reaction to it. No issue, it would seem, is ever set~- tled with them. Of course, broad generalizations like these may not do them simple and exact justice, but this plain tale will develop how far wrong they are. Right at this particular moment two of the most eminent of living British statesmen «are making a whirl- wind campaign over the tight little island on the issue of free trade and protection. One would have thought that this issue was settled with them forever in 1846 when the Cobdenites educated Great Britain to the beau- ties of free trade, and that Stanley Baldwin and Winston Churchill were but chasing butterflies in their pres- ent movement to change that an- cient economic policy of the empire. But it is not so. They have set their faces to the east and are determined to get over the mountain. What they seek to do is to convert Great Britain to a policy of what is known as empire free trade, with protection against all the world. Re- duced to simple and understandable terms, this means they would build a tariff wall about the British empire with duties so high that Uncle Sam, for instance, could not get over it or through it or around it th any way now known to our expert go-getters of trade. He might buy the empire, but that is another question. This program is not so simple as it seems, and in making this state- ment I quote the language of well- known SBritish economic students. The idea, it seems, is the child of Lord Beaverbrook, one of the wealthi- est of Englishmen, a Canadian by birth and rearing, who made his mon- ey in Canada and now lives in Eng- land, the proud possessor of one or more of the most influential news- papers in the United Kingdom. An- other nobleman, who also owns some very potential newspaper properties, has tied his kite to the same star, but Lord Rothermere does not count heavily in this controversy because he advocates no new policy; but sim- ply revives one that Stanley Baldwin faced the country with in 1923 and went to defeat on. “Lord Beaverbrook’s empire cru- sade,”” says one of his critics, “is on a different footing, and is a source of exquisite embarrassment to Union- ists. They welcome the empire cru- sade because it can not fail to edu- cate the .mother country to the im- mense importance of the dominion markets; but to have a discovery they made a quarter of a century ago represented as a new idea which will solve all problems puts them into a false position of having to depreciate what they regard as the chief plank in their platform.” } This ironic statement refers, of course, to the famous imperial prefer- ence campaign started early in this Continued on.Page 16, Column 4. AMERICAN RESIDENT DESCRIBES. CHINESE Shanghai Publisher Avers Ancestor Worship Hurts Country’s Progress. BANDIT MENACE IS CITED “If the Chinese thought more of country than of ancestor worghip.. they would. soon make some real prog-") ress. When a man gains power in China he is*forced by this custom to support all his relatives, and to put them into positions for which they are wholly unfitted. If the system were done away with and considera- tion for country amd government, rather than for self and family, were made the order of the day in China, considerable improvement would be made there.” Thus did Carroll Prescott Lunt, edil- tor and proprietor of the China Di- gest, at Shanghai, sum up the pres- ent Chinese situation from the stand- point of an American business man, with a member of The Post staff. Born in Shanghai, China, 41 years ago, Mr. Lunt is the son of New England parents. It was in 1872 that his father first went to China, in a sailing vessel belonging to a seafaring uncle of Salem, Mass. The elder Lunt was, incidentally, chief mate of the first Chinese steamer to touch an American point. At that time a cor- don of San Francisco police prevented a mob of infuriated citizens from en- dangering the lives of the Chinese passengers and crew because looked upon as competitors in the labor field. The father spent 50 years in China, and Mr. Lunt himself has lived there all his life. Foreigners Are Imperiled. Bandit uprisings in China, accord- ‘ing to Mr. Lunt, seriously menace the present Nationalist regime, and dan- ger to foreigners is averted only by the presence of warships and armed forces in the treaty ports. Elsewhere in the Oriental country, he declares.- foreigners are imperiled by river pi- rates, roving bands of plunderers, and unpaid deserters from the Nationalist and other armies. “All of this proves,” said he, “that the Chinese contention they can protect American and other foreigners is without foundation. The mission- aries seem to take a more gloomy view of the situation, rather than the emotional outlook which has been theirs heretofore. Knowing it is at their own risk, only those with suf- ficient spirit dare proceed into the back country. away from the protec- tion of warships. However, priests and other Catholic missionaries in China,” he explained, “refuse to be deterred in their purpose of minis- tering to the: physical. and spiritual needs of the Chinese. They are there to stay, to live and to die in China, without once coming home.” When, a few years ago, the Nation- alist movement began to.take shape, Mr. Lunt, like many fair-minded Americans in China, strongly sup- ported the newer tendencies: but when it was seen that the Nationalists failed to show that they were any better than their predecessors, under whose regimes railroads were built, peaceful conditions obtained and bus- iness was conducted under less un- certain conditions, he joined others In again supporting the Peking govern- t. mn what China needs principally is foreign money and other credits, ac- cording to Mr. Lunt, who is the founder of the China Who’s Who. publisher ot a tabloid called The People, and who has written and published ‘several volumes of poems. ‘But in his opinion these important items wil] not be secured if the Na- tionalists intend to repudiate China's past commitments or to default on them as, in some instances, they have already done, a ee con- fidence of American capi ts. would be injudicious mize these future possibilities.

Sold to a Texas €xcurfsion company, the Harry Lee was bound for Plaquemine, La., and Port Ar- thur, Tex, In 1867 when river traffic began perking up after the Civil War Capi. James Lee founded the Lee Line Sixteen packets bore the name of Lee in trade between Memphis, Cincin- nati, St. Louis and dozens of smaller points north and south of Memphis. Up and down the river lanes they plied in passenger and freight traffic, their black funnels and white super- structures symbols of the wealth and in an exclusive interview last might ,/uxury of the river’s boom days. But their prosperity did not stay as 1917 Lee . boats did a booming business. Then came the war, mak- high. Prohibition likewise did part to make things more difficult. taking away the great cargoes of beer which once came Southward on the steamers. 5 Added to all the changes was the traditional hard luck of the river Of the Lee boats seven sank, four burned and others were sold for ex- cursion trate elsewhere. Capt. Peters Lee, last of his family, has two packets left. One makes two trips a week. The other is tied up at Lee wharf here. Neither carries his name. The old Harry Lee was sold to L. L. Abshire and a group of other Port Arthur associates. It will enter excursion between Morgan City, Orange, Beaumont and Port Arthur.

RULE Doorn Official Is Forced to Resign When Wilhelm Objects to Policies. HOHENZOLLERN NOW CITY’S CHIEF ASSET How Fallen War Lord Has Won His Way Among Dutch Neighbors. Doorn, Holland, May 2 (N.Y.W.N.S.). The former kaiser has forced the burgomaster of Doorn to resign. The population of the little Dutch town where the former kaiser has spent the last ten years, looks upon him s the first citizen of the community who has full rights to let his voice and desires be heard concerning af- fairs affecting the local administra- tion. When the former emperor let it be known that he did not approve of the policies of Baron Schimn.elpenninck Van Der Oye, who was mayor of Doorn for four years, the people took the hint and ousted him. The successor of the baron is Myn- heer M. J. Thomaen Van Der Hoop. At the festival of inauguration of the new mayor, Kaiser Wilhelm was represented in the person of his adju- tant in full uniform, spiked helmet, gleaming boots and spurs and the spotless culrass of the Prussian Guard., The people of Doorn, it seems, don’t mind this martial display in the least. In the first place, it’s pic- turesque, and then the kaiser is the biggest taxpayer in the community. He is the biggest tourist drawing card Doorn ever had. Kaiser Pays Cash. He is also the biggest customer in the local stores. He pays cash for everything he buys. He is the most generous local contributor to the up- keep of the poor of the community. At Christmas he is in the habit of sending out a hundred well-stocked baskets. He is a patron of the Doorn Tennis Club. He gave a cup last year to be contested between two rival football: clubs. Two Doorn boys are studying at his expense in one of Holland’s state universities. The kaiser has further endeared himself to the people by donating a large num- ber of books to the local public library. His spouse, Princess Her- mine, is an ardent supporter of women endeavor societies. But what the people of Doorn like the kaiser best for, is his walks through the main street of the town in the afternoon. This brings visitors to Doorn, all the year around. The inns and hotels have always been filled since the kaiser built his home in Doorn. The visitors came from all parts of Holland to catch a glimpse of him. Some afternoons there is a dense crowd of motorists and cyclists from the nearby cities of Utrecht and Amsterdam on the main street to see the kaiser. ' Wilhelm is very accommodating in this respect. He appears promptly at 2 o'clock. His daily appearance is so punctual that the townspeople set their clocks by it. “Kiji,” says the shopkeepers, “there goes Wilhelm, It must be a quarter after 2!” Learns Dutch Language. The former kaiser has learned Dutch. The people of Doorn take this as a compliment to themselves, and also aS an indication that his majesty intends to stay permanently in their midst. For his departure would be nothing less than a calamity. Discovery of the Kaiser's command of Dutch came at Christmas. A group of children went over to “Huize Doorn,” the former imperial residence, and sang a carol under the windows. the kaiser came out, complimented them on their performance and asked as a personal favor that they sing: “Oh, Tannenbaum!” which goes to the tune of “Maryland.” It was the hymn with which -the imperial family began its Christmas celebrations in Berlin or Potsdam in years gone by. The request was made in Dutch to the astonishment of the carol-singers. . Although many folks refused to believe this, confirmation came a few days afterward when his majesty asked for picture postcards in a local shop and again used the newly-acquired language faultlessly. Life at Doorn Castle differs little from that in any of the kaiser’s Ger- man country homes in former days. He still reads a chapter of the Bible to all present in the morning and preaches on Sunday. As in former days he frequently changes his clothes, wearing the gala uniform of one of his favorite regiments at din- ner. Court styles are required of all visitors, and the chamberlains and secretaries and adjutants whom he keeps are just as formal in their ways as if everybody was still in the Neue Chiloss of Berlin. Guarded by Dogs. There is even a German guard in front of the castle. A Dutch police- man stands outside the gate, but the German guard performs inside the castle grounds. The kaiser often at- tends the change of guard and per- sonally inspects their equipmnt. 4 The former ruler of the Germans walks out unattended in Doorn. No secret service officials ever accom- pany him. He is amply guarded, nevertheless, by a pack of wolf- hounds, which he imported from the | famous Swiss police-dog training ‘school near Zurich. An inspector \from Switzerland has trained the dogs “on the man” and nobody can approach him without his personal word of command. To the kalser the dogs are the tamest and most docile pets, to any stranger they are fero- cious wolves. (Copyright, 1930.) Rain Delays Completion Of Record Junior Flight Colton, Calif..

The storm of religious persecution which has swept the vast territory of Russia as the Soviet government seeks to obliterate the worship of God in the vast empire of the czars. has brought to Washington a new and picturesque religious institution. It is the Russian Orthodox Church of St. Alexander, housed in a converted residence at 1317 Twelfth street northwest, where a few of the scat- tered exiles of the ancient regime of the Czar of all the Russians meet weekly to keep alive the religion to which their ancestors were loyal for generations. In the meager ranks of the Russian colony of Washington are represented the nobility and royalty which went down to defeat, poverty and banish- ment in the revolutions which over- turned the Imperial government and sent the Czar and his family to Si- berila and death. These scattered remnants of a once all powerful aristocracy have sought to keep alive religion through St. Alexander's Church. They are few in number but mighty in loyalty and faith. The church was founded in 1925, when the victims of the Russian debacle began to drift to the Na- tional Capital, where many of them joined American friends who had known them in their days of splen- dor. The late Patriarch Tikhon, of Russia, then head of the Orthodox Chureh, through his eminence, the Metropolitan Platon, head of the church in the United States and Canada, designated the archpriest, the Rev. Viachislav Gindlin, as rec- tor of the church to be organized in Washington. Father Gindlin, desti- tute and hampered by his meager knowledge of the English language, took up the task, which, after five years of endeavor, he has brought to success. In its beginning, with but a dozen members, the tle congregation, in Capital THE REV. VIACHISLAV GINDLIN. through the cooperation of the Right Rev. James Freeman, Episcopal Bishop of Washington, held its services in St. Alban’s Chapel at the Washing- ton Cathedral, which Father Gindlin calls the “Mother Church” of his little pastorate. Crowded out of the Cathedral quarters the Russian Or- thodox: Church was next housed in & three-room apartment, which Pather Gindlin rented and trans- formed into a chapel. Later a house was rented, and re- cently, through the aid of the many patrons of the little church among diplomats and other foreigners in Washington, as well as among high officials of the Federal Government. the congregation purchased the house in Twelfth street. There each week the representatives of the ancient re- gime of Russia,. fallen from their mighty estate, kneel in the solemn surroundings of the centuries old religion, in the rites of. their ancient faith, while busy Washington goes by unknowing. FROM A SENATOR'S DIARY Being the Day-by-Day Observations of a “Member- at-Large” Set Down for His Own Satisfaction. ; By the 97th Senator Wednesday. N BYGONE days voluntary retire- ments from the Senate were rare, as rare as—I hesitate to pro- nounce the exact degree of rarity— well, as rare as statesmanship in Congress or the instances of party | regularity in George Norris’ record. | Once in a blue moon, a senator quit | without being pushed out by the voters, as in the cases of Jim Reed and John Sharp Williams. When that happened, it was big news and the newspapers would be full of it for days. Praises of the voluntarily retiring statesman would be sung | from morn till night and endless farewell parties given by puzzled col- leagues who simply couldn't under- stand any one deliberately retiring from political life. But mostly— ninety-nine out of a hundred times, I should say offhand—senatora hung on until death took them off or their constituents kicked them out. Now the custom is reversed. We have recently developed an actual epidemic of voluntary retirements among senators with terms expiring next March. Some of them have gone into diplomacy, but most of them. have. quit outright with no thought of returning to the Senate -——that is, unless the voice of the people at some future date should suddenly become overpowering. I think it was Gould, of Maine, who let off the procession. As an openly avowed wet, Gould discovered that it would be somewhat difficult to get himself reelectea in the most ancient of all our dry Commonwealths. Then | came Fred Giliett, dean of the'| Senate since the death of Warren, of Wyoming, who saw that the going | would be rather hard in a contest for reelection in Massachusetts. Wal- ter Edge, facing a tough fight for reelection in New Jersey, decided to accept President Hoover's tender of the Paris Embassy. Fred Sackett, feeling that the prospect was none too rosy for his reelection in Ken- tucky, concluded the Edge idea was a good one and accepted appointment as Ambassador to Berlin. Davy Baird, appointed to fill out Edge’s term, decided not to stand for re- election for reasons entirely satisfac- | tory to himself. Lawrence Phipps. | pf Colorado, did the next retiring | act. Pat Sullivan, serving out the | term of Warren, of Wyoming, Says he wouldn't have another term if they handed it to him on a silver | platter. | The latest recruit to the retirement | block is Guy Goft, of West Virginia. | Goff admittedly was confronted by | the hardest kind of a battle for re- election. His health has been none too good, and on the advice of his physicians he decideq this would be a good time to call it a day in poli- tics. I congratulate him on his wise decision and wish him many happy days in private life. If present forecasts are reliable, :t looks as though Goff would be suc- ceeded by former Senator M. M. Neely, a Democrat, who was carried down to (millions of dollars. | pending. defeat by the Hoover landslide in 1928. Neely will never be ranked as a statesman, but he is a powerful rabble-rouser, ang with no presiden- tial ticket to handicap him this year he probably will come back unless the Republicans can deyelop a candidate stronger than any one now in sight.

Aided by the incredible stu- pidity of the wets, they put the eight- eenth amendment through Congress and then proceeded to have it ratified by the Legislatures of all but two of the States. They put through the Volstead act and followed it up last year with the more drastic Jones law. Their chief spokesman, the late Wayne B. Wheeler, is generally cred- ited with having written the eight- eenth amendment and the Volstead act. They have asserted, with entire justification, I think, that they con- trolled Congress as it haq never been controlled before, and that their dom- ination extended to at least -three- fourtha of the State Legis/atures. All this has gone on virtually un- challenged. Occasionally some wet spokesman got up and denounced “the dry lobby,” but no one paid ' much heed to him. Now we have the copying | They are grad- | wets turning militant and the drys’ methods. vally building up much the same kind of an organization which proved | so effective in the dry cause.

HOT BATTLE FACES SIMMONS IN STATE PRIMARY ON JUNE 7 North Carolina Senator Is Opposed by Smith Advocates. G. 0. P. CANDIDATES SEE ACTIVE CONTEST Republicans Believe Their Chances Are Good for Victory This Year. a Special to The Washington Post. Raleigh, N. C., May 3.—The stage is set for the long-awaited pol drama to be enacted in North lina on June 7, when Democratic and Republican nominees for the Senate will be chosen in the primary on that date. Already there is apparent much of the bitterness evident in 1928, whem the State went Republican by a uma- jority of 63,000 when Senator Purni- fold McLendel Simmons, Democratie dean of the Senate, publicly de nounced Gov. Smith, Democratic presidential candidate, and urged voters throughout the State not to vote for the New York standard. bearer. Mr. Simmons, now rounding out his fifth consecutive, term in the Senate, has the political fight of his life on his hands this year. For the first ti since the primary in 1912, Mr. sheinjone, who has said that, this will be/fiis last campaign, has oppo- sition from within his own party in the primary. this year and from at least one of his two Democratic op- ponents he is getting formidable ope- position. Josiah W. Bailey, lawyer, and one-time political lieu} tenant of Mr. Simmons when the iat~ ter was regarded as the political boss of the State, is providing that oppe- sition. Political observers concede Mr. Bailey has about a 50-50 chance of defeating Senator Simmons: Estep Is Also Candidate, — Thomas L. Estep, hitherto unheard of in North Carolina politics, is also a candidate for the Democratic nomil- nation, but he is not a t cause either Mr. Simmons or Mf. Bailey trouble. It is strictly a Sim- mons-Bailey fight. Mr. Estep is run- ning as an avowed “wet,” though he says he is a total abstainer. 7 One of the letters was to! not to | While the Democrats are ing | their factional fight, the Republicans, | still amazed by the victory they won | in 1928—the first time they have won |a national election in this State since Grant carried it in 1876—are aa having their first primary tle.. Since the State-wide law Wi enacted in 1913, the Republicans consistently ignored it asd have | chosen their senatorial candidates in | State conventions, but this year they have four candidates seeking the Re- | publican nomination. | They are Representative Pritchard, son of the late Senator Pritchard, the last Republican to represent the State in the Senate; Maj. George E. Butler, brother of former Senator Marion Butler, who was defeated for reelec- tion by Mr. Simmons in 1901; Irvin B, Tucker, former district attorney of the Eastern District of North Caro- lina, and the Rev. Henry Grady Dor- sett, Baptist minister. The fight, so far as the Republicang are concerned, will be between Mr. Pritchard, who gained national recog- nition by refusing to occupy an office in the House Office Building next to Representative DePriest, — Illinois Negro, and Messrs Butler and Tucker. Republicans ‘Are Hopeful, For the first time since the late Senator Pritchard won in 1896, the Republicans believe they have «@ chance to capture Simmons’ Senate seat this year. They believe the Democrats will further widen the gap created in 1928 and that . with /any sort of luck they can defeat | whomever the Democrats nominate. |Hence the large number of trem seek- ing the nomination. In years gone by a Republican had to be requested to become the senatorial nominee. The big fight, though, will. be staged by the Democrats. What are now known in North Carolina as “loyal Democrats”—Democrats who stuck to Smith in 1928—have never forgiven Mr. Simmons for his refusal to support Smith. They recall vivid- ly an utterance by Mr. Simmons in September, 1928, when the senator, ‘asked by a number of “first” voters _a5 to how they should vote, replied: “If I had a son, I would advise him vote for Gov.

NATS HELD TO 6 HITS IN 4-TO-2 DEFEAT BY BRO WNS “Ele EW YORK, May 3.—Although ..the cup final or championship soccer game between Arsenal and Hudderfield at Wembley Stadium the other day drew 100,000 people in- cluding King George, in person, and would have drawn 100,000 more cus- tomers if there had been room for them, none of the ,dispathces from London has made any mention of a ticket scalping scandal, For that matter, one never hears of a ticket scalping scandal in connec- tion with any English sporting event and one steeped in the American tra- dition of showmanship is given to wonder why this is. It can not be that the English showmen are not emart because they invest their major exhibitions with a swank that even Mr. Rickard himself, who very frankly admired the rich for their wealth, and the prominent for their prominence, never was able. to imitate. Mr. Rickard felt honored and was inclined to boast if he had a scatter- ing of millionaires and a half dozen governors at one of his prize fights but he never had the President of the United States among his guests. It ‘is true that the President some times attends the worlds series ball games, but when he does he seems to regard it as a duty to his party and while lending his physical presence, his at- titude indicates resignation not inter- est. King Walks on Field To Greet Players. In England, the King not only at- tended the cup final the other day but walked out on the football field and shook hands with the play- ers of both teams, pausing, as the dispatches said, to say a few words to each one. He did this without apparent sacrifice of dignity but I don’t believe any one in this democ- racy has ever had the gall to suggest that the President should leave his box at a world series game and shake hands.with the members of the con- tending teams. I sup the English showmen know all about the American practice of scalping tickets to the customers at such times as the demand exceeds the supply, for the English are very alert to the operations of the lew of supply and demand in all lines of It may he that they have an old-fashioned conception ‘of the showman’s duty toward the customers who keep him prosperous, but I have an idea that it is the English cus- tomer himself who regulates matters and keeps the promoters honest. Mr. Rickard used to say-~ that any promoter who would refuse to sell blocks of seats for cash to speculators for resale to the customers at a great advance in price was a bed business man, arguing that the speculator’s money was as good as any other money and that it was none of his business what the speculator charged the ultimate customer, American Customer Different. But the temperament of the Ameri- can customer is quite different from that of the Englishman who would be likely to do without his prize fights and his musical comedies if he were turned away from the box office and then discovered seats on sale across the street for 50 per cent or 100 per cent more, -~I wonder how many tickets the English would have beught for the cup final of last Saturdey if an American showman had had charge of the price scale. There would have been a great temptation to bear down on the people and to slip. out blocks of tickets through some side door into the hands of a speculator who would be willing in turn to split his profit with the promoter or the promoter’s -pox-office man. The American cus- tomer resents this, but his resent- ment is never expressed in anything more effective than a grumbling com- ment that he is being denied his rights. Not only in the matter of ticket scalping, but in the other, more seri- ous impositions on the clientele, the Americans are noted for their patience and their forgiving nature. If Primo Carnera was to be freight- ened back to New York next month and matched with Victorio Campolo or Jack Dempsey, the boys would be certain to draw a full attandance at the Polo Grounds or the Yankee Sta- dium, although the customers are quite aware that Primo has been en- gaging in irregular practices on his Western tour and, in the celebrated California case, was convicted of un- ethical conduct. One never hears of faking in the English ring and I believe that in the simple interpretation of justice in England a faker would not. be merely suspended and denied the right to fake any more in some limited juris- diction, but would be indicted and sent to prison for entering into a conspiracy to defraud. Moreover, no athlete could expect to do a big busi- ness in England under the auspices of any such band as Primo belongs to because the a do not permit such people to business in sport. If the Carnera-Chavelier bout had taken place in London and a mem- ber of Primo’s gang had been placed in Chevalier’s corner in the guise of a second, to throw in the towel, and the boxing commission had reached the same finding that was reached by the’ California commission. then Frimo and all his various managers and Mr. Bob Perry, who threw the towel] into the ring, would have been arrested at the ring side, and, by now, would be residing in some un- comfortable jail.

JOHN’S TEAM AT LACROSSE, 7 TO 3 Undefeated Annapo- | lis Twelve Takes 4-0 Lead at Half. Old ‘Ling Title Hopes | Dimmed ; 5,000 See First Defeat. By JACK ESPEY., ARYLAND’S hopes for suprem- acy in college lacrosse were severely jolted, if not smash- ed, yesterday, when its hitherto un- defeated twelve bowed to the cham- pion St. John’s of Annapolis Team, 7 to 3, in a fast game in Byrd Sta- dium, College Park. More than 5,000 persons watched. It was a stunning defeat, for the Terp stickmen had been regarded as at least the equals of the Johnnies, who also had reached this battle without a defeat. Not even the most ardent St. John’s fans had anticipat- ed a victory as decisive as Coachiy Tody Riggs’ boys carried back to the banks of the Severn. A one or two; goal margin would have thoroughly satisfied the large St. John’s delega- tion present. It was a well-earned victory and placed St: John’s well in the van in the race for the 1930 championship. Two other teams—Johns Hopkins and Navy—also are undefeated, but it generally is conceded that the John- nies are stronger than their rivals. Maryland Aims to Remain in Race. Maryland now holds hope for a division of the season’s honors and this rests on the outcome of its games with Johns Hopkins and Navy and the contest between St. John’s and Hopkins, all three of which will be held during this month. If Hopkins can spill St. John’s, with Maryland defeating both Hopkins and Navy. the Terrapins can claim part of the titular recognition. From the outset yesterday St. John’s demonstrated its superiority. The charges of Coach Riggs appeared in better condition as well as more skillful opponents of the game. On offense and defense they held the edge throughout. The detail of the progress of the battle offers proof. Within the first five minutes of play, St. John’s grabbed a two-goal lead, with Hines and Pool scoring on neat passes from MacCartee, the Washington boy playing in home for the Annapolisans, Evans Misses Try For Goal. During this time Maryland had only one chance to score and Bill Evans, who later accounted for his team’s point total, missed a fine at- tempt near the net. Before the half closed. Hoff and Pool each found the net to give St. John’s a 4-0 advantage. Maryland, led by Evans, opened the second half in a whirlwind drive that speedily penetrated the Johnnies’ de- fense. Evans fired into the net on & pass from Colosimo. A moment later he scored again, scooping up the pellet in a wind scrable and shooting through Armacost, St. John’s goalie. St. John’s rallied at this juncture and widened its lead again. Ziegler took a pass from Pool and MacCartee executed a clever dodging shot to make the score read 6-2: Then ensued fifteen minutes of scoreless battling up and down the field urtitfinally Hoff poked the ball into the net from a point 15 feet out. Just before the closing whistle sounded, Evans slammed one by Wolanske, subbing we aaa at the doorway of the goa ‘ Position. Marvians. MacCartee jiiera LH St. John Maryland i i3s, Hoff (2). Eva (3).

Anti-Sports Discussion “Piffle,”’ Declares Dean Moscow, Idaho, May 3 (A.P.).— Not until football teams of West- ern colleges and universities began to defeat those of the East was there a cry that an overemphasis is being placed on college athletics, it is charged hy Dr. Charles M. Thompson, dean of the college of commerce and business at the Uni- versity of Illinois. Talk to the contrary, the educator said, is “pif- fie.” Thirty years ago, when tlie “Big Three” dominated all American football, Dr. Thampson was an un- dergraduate at Harvard. At that time, he says, Eastern cities went” stark mad over the game, and no comments, such as Carnegie Foundation reports, were heard.

Sol Furth, who capttred first place in three events, New York University’s Track Team this after- noon defeated Georgetown at Ohio field, 97-38. The New Yorkers an- nexed ten-of fifteen first places. Furth, with 15 points, far outshone the efforts of Leo Sexton, ace of the Hilltopper aggregation, who captured only one first, the hammer throw. Furth tied his own Ohio field record in the 120-yard high with a 151-5 second race; outran his teammate, Roche, and Kjellstrom, Georgetown, in the 220-yard low hurdles, and then took the broad jump with a leap of 23 feet 314 inches. Briggs Scores in Century. In the mile, the javelin throw, the two-mile race, the discus throw, and the broad jump, the New Yorkers cap- tured each of the three places, George- town placed first in the 100-yard dash with a 10-second performance against a strong wind by Arthur Briggs. Briggs took another first place in the 220-yard dash and thereby raised his total to 10 points to lead his team, with Sexton behind with 814 points to his credit. In the i-mile run, Joe Hickey, in- tercollegiate outdoor mile champion, had the race won by 15 yards, but slowed down and let his teammate, Jim Maloney, take first and thus make sure of winning his letter for track. The requirements call for a first place in a dual meet for a letter. The summaries: 120-YARD HIGH HURDLES—Won by Sol Furth (N. Y. U.); Harold Lefft (N. Y.

C. U. NINE 24-8 VICTIM OF MARYLAND Old Liners Make 24 Hits, Including 4 Home Runs. M baseball players were not bill- ed to participate in the big track and field meet at College Park yesterday, so they staged one of their own i na game with Catholic Uni- versity’s Nine, scoring the largest number of runs ever made on a Ter- rapin diamond to capture the de- cision, 24 to 7. It was the second time in five years that Maryland and Catholic have met in any athletic contest. The Terrapins started slamming the ball in the very first inning and never stopped. They collected as many hits as they did runs. and showed a liking for each of the four hurlers used by their rivals. Four home runs were made by the winners, three coming in.the fifth inning when six runs crossed the plate. The circuit belts were con- tributed by Higgins, Chalmers, Hetzel and Hauver, the last named being the Maryland pitcher. Hauver. Off to Poor Start. ' Hauer started on the mound, work- ing six innings, during which the ARYLAND UNIVERSITY'S Cardinals. scored all of ‘their runs. He got off to a poor start when Catholic registered twice in the first | ininng, but simply breezed through the next five frames, safely protected by his mates’ heavy bombardment. Hess hurled the last three innings. Maryland wiped out Catholic’s two- run lead in the first inning by count- ing eight times. Julie Radice, one of the Southern Conference’s leading hitters in 1929, made two singles in this round. Following isthe detail of land’s big first inning: Wilson Slams Triple. Cronin walked and Wilson tripled, scoring Cronin. Radice singled, scor- ing Wilson. Chalmers grounded out. Higgins singled. Tansil singled, scor- ing Radice. Hetzel walked.

May 3 (A.P.).— The Mississippi A. & M. boxing team, first college fistic team in the State, started the season with a group of in- experienced battlers and no equip- ment, but made a go of it financially as well as in the ring. All of the Maroon matches drew well. The Aggies won four, lost four and drew one match to break even for the season. Boxing teams in Mississippi colleges were made possible when the State legislature passed a bill two years ago legalizing the sport. 10 | Simpson Runs In 9.5 for Ohio Relay Mark “Century” ‘| Beats Tolan and Bracey in Second Fastest “100” of Season; 21 Other Records Smashed for Buckeye Games.

Rich Glendon’'s Columbia crew with a record of sixteen straight victories | since last it met defeat by Californie’s | Golden Bearsin 1928 held asmoother and more powerful Yale eight even throughout the first half of the 2 mile dash, but could not hold them when Stroke Woody Tappen decided to step on the gas. Yale’s entries also carried off the 150-pound and junior varsity laurels and Pennsylvania won the freshman sprint. Columbia, whose »owerful oarsmen last year swept the housatonic clean in al four races, coulr no better than two lasts and two seconds, but, the day was not without honor for the varsity proteges of young Rich Glen- don. Crews Line Up After Sunset. A strong north wind blowing di- rectly down the course ruffled water and held up the entire program for an hour and 20 minutes and the sun had set when the crews lined up for the varsity‘race. From the fall of the starting flag Columbia and Yale were at each other’s throat, Penn was out of it before they had gone 200 yards. Both Bill Sanford; Columbia,s stroke, and Tappen were out to grab the lead, throwing strategy to the winds. The leading shells sliced through the wavelets nose for nose as they swept past the half mileand one mile | flags. There Tappen began the beat. Up it went to close 38 to the minute. Sanford tried answer, but the Blue and White oars faltered. At the mile and a half flaz Yale led by a quarter length. With a quarter mile to go they had doubled to pick up this lead and as the shells tore down | on the finish line, Yale put on a rare | every | spring and was gaining at stroke. Through the rumble of the obser- | vation train packed with 3,500 cheer- ing partisans and the bedlam raised | by & grandstand crowd of 5,000 more | at the finish line, Yale sped to victory | as Columbia failed in a last despair- 40 mark, It was Yale's seventh victory in| resuming the) string of successes snapped by the. } this picturesque race, Columbians last year.

SNODGRASS (Staff Correspondent of The Post). ern RACE TRACK, Md., May 3—A capacity crowd of 30,000 Saw Harry Payne Whitney's Filmsey set a new time record of 1:45 to take down the $4,990 purse, also a record, in the twelfth running of the Pimlico Oaks, mile and yards feature. Flimsy, a 3-year-old daughter of Broomstick—Yankee Maid. with A. Robertson doing the booting, took command at the break and, escaping the jam which occurred at the first turn; rushed into a long lead before the field entered the back stretch. In the meantime, Walter J. Sal- mon’s Snowflake, the favorite. who Was one of those to suffer in the jam, was running again and, saving ground on the rail, she was in sec- ond place, two lengths off Flimsy 6 the field left the back lane. Weight Too Much for Snowflake. The effort took its toll on Snow- flake, who had 121 pounds up, and who was giving eight pounds to every atarter but Murky Cloud and Alci- Diades, and when the run, through the home stretch was at its height, Snowflake started faltering. This en- abled Fator to bring R. A. Parr’s Her Grace up fast on the rail to take the place. However, Her Grace, who was eauight in the early jam and who closed an immense gap thereafter, could not overcome Flimsy's > early lead. After the race Trainer Elmer True- man, of Washington, announced that he would start Her Grace in the $50,- 000 Preakness, the mile and three- m7 oh om stake to be run here Fri- ay Crumpler Sets Record Over Jumps.

The race saw Beelzebube.My Cere‘and Eider run out of the course while making the pace the second Lime around. Beelzebub finished first, but due to his going outside the course he was | eutomatically disqualified. This en- abled the Brookmieade Stable’s Rooney to take-the place from J. E. Davis’ Polish. Fourth money went to J. E. Widener’s Indigo. Malvoisine,. coupled with Eider,took command ;t the drop of the flag and led for a mile, where Beelzebub, My Care and Eider passed him, only to nullify their good work by running out of the course. Beelzvebub continued to set the pace, with Eddie Ball bringing Crump- ler up fast the last half mile, to be given the purse when the first named was disqualified. Farte Never Headed in. Opener. Tommy Rodrick sprang a live one in the Oriole, the day's 4'4-furlong opener, when he sent Mrs. Katherine EB. Hitt’s Forte postward, and the 2- year old chestnut son of Ed Crump— Nocturne made every post a winning one. Freddie Stevens broke Forte on top, and he lashed and booted the rest of the way home to be a handy winner over Harry Payne Whitney's Totem, with Howard Bruce’s Avalon third. The Rancocas Stable’s Schooner, the heavy favorite, was fourth. Forte ran greenly and should improve off tw- day's effort. Harry Payne Whitney's Summer Day, after twice failing her backers, finally left the ranks of the maidens when Sonny Workman drove her home ahead of six other 2-year-olds in the 4!4 furlongs of the third. Summer Day. Imaginary and Uncle Sam were the quickest to find their racing legs, but at the first turn, Schaefer was in tight quarters with Imaginary and was forced to take back. This probably cost his Mount the race. In the meantime Summer Day went into a length lead over Huntingdon, who had raced up fast on the outside, but once straightened out in the stretch Workman lashed the ultimate winner several times and she went away from her field. Huntingdon hung on long enough to save the place from Imaginary, who closed. an immense gap on straight- eming out in the stretch. Razzle Leads All the Way In the Fourth. Gwynn Tompkins sent a mighty [1+ maiden postward when he saddled the Brookmeade Stable’s Razzle, and the 34year-old son of Wrack-—Sadowa ran a mile and seventy yards in 1:461-5 to'leave the ranks of the maidens. A: Robertson was alert at the gate and stepped Razzle into the lead at the rise of the webbing.

Gallant Fox Logical Choice ~ In Preakness op F riday 3 Presence of Woodward Star Likely to Cuts Field to 9 or 10 Starters; 78 Eligible for Historic Race. By GEORGE DALEY ILLIAM WOODWARD’S Gal- lant Fox will be favorite for the Preakness Stakes of $60,- 000 over one mile and three-sixteenths at historic Pimlico on Friday. That is sure. His yictory is not so sure. The hazards of the race—a poo deep pockets or possible interference must be faced. Still, on his running in the Wood Memorial Stakes at Jamaica on April 26, success in this old-time and much coveted fixture appears to be fore ordained. This race is the opening engage- ment in the battle of 3-year-olds | © which will be carried on in the Ken- tucky Derby at Churchill Downs on May 17, in the Withers ang Belmont Stakes at Belmont Park, in the Dwyer at Aqueduct, in the American Derby at Washington Park, and the Ameri- can Classic at Arlington Park, Chi- cago, to mention only the richest of the fixtures for horses of this age throughout the spring and early summer season. In the absence of H. P. Whitney's Whichone and Boojum, the 2-year-~- bid luminaries of 1939, Gallant Fox blazes forth like the harvest moon. The very presence of the son of Sir Gallahad 3d—Marguerite will limit the field and reduce it to the smallest proportions in recent years. Owners and trainers hesitate to go chasing after a horse of such quality even though the temptation of great riches and the thought that racing is uncertain. Small Field Present Outlook. Seventy-eight horses are eligible. Hardly more than nine or ten will go to the post, according to the present outlook. Those likely to take issue with Gallant Fox are Mrs. Graham Fair Vanderbilt's Desert Light, T. M. Cassidy's Crack Brigade, the Howe Stable’s Gold Brook, Walter J. Sal- mon’s Swinfield, John L. Pontius’ Michigan Boy, the Seagram Stable's Sweet Sentiment, H. P. Whitney's Crazy Coot and William Ziegler’s Spinach. The last named is doubtful. Bill Spiers is frank in .saying that he knows when he is beaten and Spin- ach certainly was well beaten in the Wood, although with some excuses, as he was caught in a jam at the first turn and was lucky not to fall. Still Crack Brigade, Desert Light and Gold Brook also were well beaten by Gal- lant Fox in the same race and it is rather too early to admit that the Sir Galahad colt is invincible. Alex Gordon has only the highest praise for the winner of that skirm- ish, but feels he was partly to blame for the defeat of Desert Light in giving him two races so close together that it was impossible to ask him for a stiff trial in between. There may be something in this. Want Another Shot At Star. Tom Cassidy and Joe Bauer, his trainer, are keen for another shot at Gallant Fox with Crack Brigade, which forced the pace and finished second. They know that his training was slightly interrupted through be- ing kicked at the post in the run- ning of the Paulmonok Handicap on the previous Monday. Sweet Sentiment beat Michigan Boy and Swinfield in the running of the Chesaperke Stakes at Havre de Grace, another skirmish leading up to the approaching battle, and so made new friends for the Preakness. This colt, by Mackenzie IIl—Heart String, may be better than rated, but hardly measures up co Gallant Fox. Michigan Boy won the Louisiana Derby at New Orleans last winter and has condition on his side, but still falls short on paper to three or four of the others. The Preakness Stakes is steeped in sentiment and backed by traditions. It had its beginning over half a cen- tury ago, and over the same course. Far back in 1873 John F. Chamber- lin’s Survivor raced to victory for the small sum of $1,000. It has grown to much bulk and riches since that day. The horse was ridden by George Bar- bee, one of the leading jockeys of that time, and the same Barbee, stil] hale and hearty at over 80 years, wil] be the guest of the Maryland Jockey Club for the fortieth running next Friday. The race was allowed to lapse wins 1889 and was not revived until Preakness Named After Horse. It was called the Preakness to per- j Petuate the name of that good son of Lexington which won the sporting Diner Party Stakes ran at the first meeting at Pimlico in 1870, and since changed to the Dixie Handicap, won a few days ago by Sandy Ford. As in the Kentucky Derby, the colts have ruled over the fillies. Only two of the female of the species have car- ried off the gold and glory—Edward F. Whitney’s Rhine Maiden in 1915 and Bud Fisher’s Nellie Morse in 1924.

In recent years H. P. Whitney and Walter J. Salmon have been exercising a monopoly. with three winners each. The late Jimmy Romé@ saddled three for Mr. Whitney in BroOmspun, Bos- tonian and Victorian. Tom Healey has done even better with four, three for Mr. Salman, Vigil, Display and Dr. Preeland, and one for the late R. T. Wilson, jr., Pillory.

The Woodlawn Vase, historically if not actually, is the most valuable cup of the American turf. Vase Designed by Tiffany. Designed in 1860 by Tiffany to the order of Col. R. A. Alexander, it was presented to the Woodlawn Associa- tion, of Louisville, and won.that year by Capt. Moore’s Mollie Jackson. Dur- ing the Civil War it was buried with the Alexander plate at Woodlawn and not offered again until 1866. The late Phil and Mike Dwyer brought the vase Fast in 1883 and it was Offered at Sheepshead Bay and later at Morris Park and won by such horses as Eole, Miss Woodford, Sir Excess, Gold Heels and Advance Guard. It finally became the prop- erty of Thomas Clyde, who in time turned it over to the Maryland Jockey Club, where it has been in competition since 1917. (New York World News Service.)

You wouldn’t think it is pps- sible to win 40 horse races in a single season, be in the money 40 times, collect $47,000 in purses and still be out more than $30,000 at the end of the year, would you? But t can be; in fact, has been done, au according to Ed Arlington, the hot man who has raced many a string‘ of horses, it all happened to him in 1928. After that experience, Arlington says, he feels qualified to write or tell the tsory of “the ‘sap’ owner and five reasons why he can not win.” He insists it is not a story of the sorehead, or of one crying over spilled milk, but simply a recitation of con- ditions under which he and what he fered. He says he lost.money in 1928 because he didn’t bet his money at the right time, and always had it down at the wrong time. Experience Shows 5 Reasons For Failure. The five reasons why an owner, situated as he was, can not win, he enumerates as follows: 1—You can not be sure that your trainer is of the same opinion as you are, that he is going to to win. 9—You can not make sure that the jockey is favorably disposed. 8—You can not make sure that the foreman didn’t forget to draw the horse’s feed and didn’t give him a gallon. of water, 4—If the foreman forgot to do these things, you can not be sure that the foreman didn’t forget. 5—And then, out on the track, fe can not feel that your horse n’t going to be left at the post. my ‘sap’ owner,” continued Arling- ton, “who wants to win has no means of knowing how his horse feels. The steed may feel like winning in the paddock only to change his mind a few minutes after he is out at’ the starter’s gate. These are only a few elements against thc ‘sap’ owner, without resorting to the time-old alibi of racing luck. The whole com- bination makes him a 1-to-5 shot to lose or 5-to-1 shot to win, A poor man who owns horses should have some real knowledge of his horses, and I say he can not have this in- formation unless he trains the horses himself.” ““Sharpshooters” Got Purse Money, and More. . “Such assertions as these might draw the wrath of somebody down upon your head.” he was told. “They can’t,” insisted Arlington. “They are just simple truths, and I never was afraid to tell the truth. In 1928, for instance, I won more money in purses than Mr: Graham Fair Vanderbilt or George D. Widener, and-felt that I was away ahead, but my auditor paid my bills by check and they showed that I was $30,000 or more loser.” “Who gets the money under such deplorable conditions?” we asked. Arlington was inclined to say that he did not know. He couldn’t be sure, so he generalized, declaring “the sharpshooters.” “They know more about your horses than you do yourself,” he said. He then cited several instances, one in particular several years ago, when he raced a horse named Kohinoor. Arnold Rothstein bet $50,000 at least on the horse in a three-horse race, but when he,, the owner, went to wager on his own color * :arer the lay- ers told him they were very sorry, they really couldn’t take any more bets on the horse. Arlington’s Horse “Elected” And He Didn't Know It, “Somebody had made sure that Kohinoor would win, because the nearest thing to him in the race was a sixteenth of a mile back.” Arling- ton then began to search his memory. ae could tell you lots of things to - prove my contentions about the ‘sap’ owner, but I- don’t want to go Mmto details.” Then he thought of an in- stance when the late Joe Marrone had a hore named Harwood in a race. “Marrone bet $10,000 on him and felt sure of winning,” said Arlington, “when along came my horse and beat him. My horse had been elected, and I didn't even know it.” “If conditions are so awful and terrible, why do you come out to the track?” we interrupted. “Why not?” answered Arlington, “It - negg sommes to be out there watch- ng em run and tryin od them out.” eto: Sid “Oh,” added the hotel man, “don’ t think I am kicking all the time. I'll be back in it. I’ll buy some more horses, but I still maintain that the race track is an open air insane asylum, that you check your brains at the gate when you come in and that betting is a mild form of in- sanity. Outside of that, racing is a great game.” JAMAICA RESULTS. aneeane Free lds i awing “Board, to Hand also ae Six. purse, $1,200 added; Cumberlan for orveer -olds an SE sae Holida ay, is Oe 5 Garner), . cas :: ‘s Best Man, 3 6.

THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY. MAY: 4, 1980. —R NOW PROVIDING PUNCH FOR NAT. - VouthfalPair ' Keep Team Ahead 2 Infielders Maintain Fast Gait at Plate From Start. Thomas Due to Face Browns in Final of Series Today. By~FRANK. H. YOUNG. By FRANK H. YOUNG. SUALLY In the spring—in fact, ever since 1925—Washington fans have had to wrack their brains trying to figure out why the Nationals have gotten away to such poor starts. This year, however, the question before the house seems to be: “What’s the cause of their fast clip at the outset?. “As far as training is concerned, the. Nats always have gone well in their exhibition series and, to all in- tents and purposeg have been ready to keep on going when hte opening bell sounded. But this is the first season in many recent ones that the team has lived up to advance press notices, Several factors possibly, are respon- sible for this happy state of affairs. Perhaps the split training season, which took the Nats from the warmer |] Biloxi climate to Chattanooga and its Washington-like . weather hardened Manager Walter Johnson’s men so|° that they hardly noticed any change when they arrived here. Then again, the ‘prescription-like doses of train- ing work doled out to certain ath- letes. by Johnson and Trainer Mike Martin might have helped some. Cronin-Myer Duo In Limelight. The chances are, however, that the Main reason the Natts have started off as if they might land a high posi- tion in the race is-due to the manner in which Joe Cronin and Buddie Myer have been hitting tm support of Sam Rice. Heretofore, “Goose” Goslin was supposed to carry the _ bulk of the batting punch of the 7 team, but the Cronin-Myer duo has been stealing Goslin’s thunder. The latter has shown only an occasional flash of his real ability, but Cronin and Myer have been carrying on at a fast gait in almost every game, with the young shortstop specializing in long hits. In addition to these two getting a big share of bingles, the Nats ‘also have benefitted from the manner in which they have been able to divide their work with the stick. When a mate has faltered, some other Nat has “picked him up,” the result be- ing that in practically every game at least two of Johnson’s men have hit -plike fiends and, as a result, the Nats have continually had a punch, if not from one set of players, then from another. On days when Cronin and Myer have faltered, Goslin, Judge, Bluege, Ruel or West have had a good day; in other words, except in yesterday’s game, there always has been at least two of the Nats carrying the team along. And, as hits mean victory as & general thing, the home team natu- rally has won consistently. Myles Thomas Due To Face Browns. - Myles Thomas is scheduled to pitch for Washington this afternoon in the final of the series with the St. Louis Browns, with either “General” Alvin Crowder or “Bridegroom Dick” Coff- man, both former Nationals, opposing him. The Nats are particularly anx- ious to land this verdict, as it will give them the odd game in the set. Thomas ‘pitched exceptional ball his last time out, holding the Yankees to four hits in six innings after reliev- ing Liska in that hectic Tuesday con- 2 test in which the Nats overcame an alien seven-run lead to win. Friday was not the thirteenth, but it had all of the aspects of a hard luck combination for Sam Gray, St. Louls pitcher. That afternoon ne was pounded off the pitching hill and that night he and his roomy, Sam Hale, decided to open the door cf their hotel room to invite a little more air. - They benefited from the additional air they sought but with it came a light-fingered gentleman who robbed them of all of their money and valuables. Among the lat- ter was a watch which Gray prized most highly as it had been presented to him by admiring Philad¢@lphia fans while he was a member of the present world’s champions. Another who was a victim of this uninvited visitor was First Baseman Harley Boss, of the Lookouts, who is here having an injured knee treated by the Washington Club physician. Second Baseman Buddie Myer was lightly spiked by Lu Blue in the figst inning yesterday but gamely re- fused to quit. After Blue had led off with a single, O’Rourke shot a hot grasser to Bluege, who pegged to sec- #ond for a force play. While grabbing the toss with his gloved hand, Buddie veered over toward the runner. Al- though knocked off the base, he held on to the ball. Griffith Would Pay Cash For Blaeholder. While admitting that he made the ‘ Browns an offer for Pitcher George Blaeholder, who is now on the sus- pended list for failing to accept terms, ag long ago as when the Nats were training at Biloxi, President Clark Griffith declares that he has made as overtures since that time, reports to the contrary notwithstanding. “I’m not willing to give up the ma- terial we have on hand,” said the Washington Club owner, “but I will pay cash for any player whom I think will help us.” As Phil Ball, owner of the Browns, is rated as about 30 times a million- aire, he is not likely interested in a eash: offer for Blaeholder, while he probably wants to hang on to the re- calcitrant pitcher in order to punish him for what he considers “hold-up” a i Scion on the part of the player. It was not only the fifth inning that, except for hits, the Browns were able to hit one of Liska’s slants to the outfield, Then, with one out, Fer- rell lofted to Rice. ‘LOANS HORNING ‘Mldaspnde—Watchne—Jowalry ‘South End of Highway Bridge On the Road to Alexandria Rate of Interest 2% and 3% | COMPLETE MAJOR LEAGUE AVERAGES OF ALL Games played up to and including Saturday, compiled by The Washington Post statistician.

LEXINGTON’S FEATURE TO DON LEON Bill Morris Beaten; Clyde Van Dusen Wins Dash. EXINGTON, Ky., May 3 (A.P.).— An exceptionally good program of racing was offered here today ——the closing day of the spring meet- ing here on this, the oldest racing strip in the country. A card of eight events was provided. Clyde Van Dusen, the consistent gelded son of Man o’ War—Uncle’s Lassie, winner of last year’s Kentucky Derby and tenth in the list of money- winning horses in 1929, made his first appearance as a 4-year-old, to win the fourth number on the pro- gram, a sprint over the futurity course for 3-year-olds and upward, leading home Beaming Over and Star Lassie and covering the distance in 1:10 2-5. The featured attraction, the Idle Hour Stakes, a dash of 444 furlongs for 2-year-old colts and geldings, fur- nished the greatest surprise of the day when Don Leon, from R. W. Col- lins’ Stable, under a fine ride by K. Hoffman, flashed under the wire an easy winner. Deemster Next Best. Deemster, from C. B. Dailey’s Stable, was next best with Backlog, from Gallaher & Combs’ string, third. Lib- erty Ace was next with Bill Morris, the hot favorite, landing in fifth place, a badly beaten horse, It was a wide-open finish. The race had a value of $3,290 to the winner; 8400 to second, $200 two third and $100 to the fourth stables. The distance was covered in the fast time of 0:54 2-5 and paid $17.76 for a $2 mutuel ticket. Don Leon was taken to lead right at. the start and was never threatened, winning easily by two lengths. A like distance separated Deemster, Backlog and Liberty Ace, while the crack Bill Morris was a length and a half farther back, beat- ing Tiger Prince, the only other starter, by three lengths. Clear weather and a fast track pre- vailed. Comstockery Winner With Rush at Jamaica Jamaica, N. Y., May 3 (A.P.)—The Greentree Stable’s Comstockery, carry- ing 102 pounds, scored in a sensa- tional finish in winning the Kings County Handicap, mile and a six- teenth, here today. The Belair Stud’s Frisius was second, with R. L. Gerry’s Ironsides, favorite, third. Panuco was fourth and the time was 1:46 2-5. There was a twelve minute delay at the post, caused by Comstockery and Hard Tack refusing to line up with the rest of the horses. They got away in fairly good order and Panuco ran to the front, followed by Ironsides and Son o’ Battle, while Comstockery was back about fifth. Panuco led to the far turn, where Ironsides moved up and took the lead. The favoritg turned into the stretch leading by a length, but his condi- tion told and he began to tire. Meanwhile, Herbert brought Com- Jhonny and coming through the bunch drove Comstockery into the lead to win by half a length. Prisius beat Ironsides one and a half lengths for the place. The rate was worth $5,750. Gallant Knight Works Full Mile in 1:39 2-5 Louisville, May 3 (A.P.).—Gallant Knight, star Derby entry of the Aud- ley Farm Stable, was driven hard in his workout today to show what he could do, and he turned in the mile in 1 minute 39 2-5 seconds. It was the first time any Kentucky Derby eligible had shaded 1:40 on the Churchill Downs track this season. The Audley Farm colt was clocked in 0:23 4-5 at the quarter, 0:48 4.5 at the half and 1:13 4-5 at the three- He was paced for the last three-quarters by Royal Yeoman and Jockey Herman Shutte was driv- ing him hard at the finish. Gallant Knight carried approximately 115 pounds, In other workouts today Ladrone, former United States Senator John- son M. Camden’s Derby entry, did the mile in 1:44 4-5 in a driving finish. Billy Champ, Warm Stable entry, cov- ered the mile in 1:45 1-5; Busy, in his first workout here since arriving from Lexington, worked out the half in 0:48 2-5 and Stock Market cov- ered seven-eighths in 1:29. Nostaw Easy Winner In Aurora’s Feature Aurora, Ills..

Chester Miles, a twin brother of Frank, has come along this season until he now shows promise of de- veloping into just as capable a run- ner as his brother.

Single Game Today. look formidable on the see Job of Sandlot Manager One of Hardest in Sports ~ Rounds Up Players, Gets Seulnmeal: Ar- ranges Games, Carries Bats, Keeps Score, Raises Funds, Blamed for Everything. By RICHARD & TENNYSON. ALTER JOHNSON, Connie Mack and other leaders of big time ball clubs are paid salaries for worrying with ocmuiinenned ball players not a whit more than ye local sandlot manager, who receives only pain for his trouble. If you doubt this, ask any of the leaders of Capital City League ball clubs. Just about the time big league managers start on their annual trek to the Sunny South, District sandlot managers bundle up in their heavy oo and begin the trudge around in the wintry blasts to sign “Peanute, “ “Tony,” “Jake” and “Jim" to contracts that will bind them to the “Woosis” ball club for the sea- And they do not walk into the bowling alley, billiard parlor or ice cream parlor and thrust a contract before the sandilot star and have it signed immediately. No, no! They must first engage the donna of the local diamonds in a conversation or maybe bowl him a game—and lose in salesmanship style. Team With Equipment Usually Gets Man. Then the hopeful manager starts off by telling the object of his atten- tion the type of ball player he has corralled and others that he has in prospect, only to be met with the statement that another manager has beat him to it in requesting the services of this particular star, but there is still hope, as he has not signed with any one yet. And so it goes for weeks before the actual practice season tsarts, some- times succes and sometimes failure, regardless of which, there are al- ways obstacles to overcome. Some more fortunate teams have shoes, gloves and uniforms to offer the can- didates right at the start, while othérs “hope” to through benefits, &c. Naturally, the team with the most in the form of spot induce- ments to offer has a better chance of getting the outstanding players. en just when the manager thinks he has the nucleus of a pretty fair ball club and is ready to start prac- ticing, one or more of his potential champions requests to be released. And on behalf of most District lead- ers, it must be gaid that they are more than fair in granting these re- quetss, as, regardless of the ability of the player who desires to leave the club, the managers usually com- ply. Next on the program, the hard- worked leader must armnge 4 series of preliminary games, which means many hours on the telephone and often jaunts to various esction of the city. Sandwiched in with these early-season activities are efforts to obtain funds to purchase equipment, getting the players out for practice, and many Seen te a vg ) at manager ex ook after pec ag and alone, because he is “the m goes All of this a ae regular league season starts @ think of a manager of a sandiot ball club doing anything more than to look t on sidelines and change the pitchers et the wrong time. Everybody but the manager always knows when a player should be yanked. When the league games start the now wild-e manager must spend Saturday alent and Sunday morning collecting his Pom layers. He must either carry or see t the bat bag gets po the field. He fust have a supply of baseballs, the scorebook and woe be the lot of a sandlot leader who ar- rives on the field lacking sufficient funds to pay the umpire. If there is sufficient, or any, collection, he may be reimbursed, but if not, he's the manager, isn't he? It is usually his lot to Keep the score and after the game he Gathers up the bats and if on Monday —. ing the complete box score is n the sport page the center fielder who had a perfect day at bat for the first time in his life will sulk for a month or maybe ask to be released. Yes, the manager also is expected to take the report of the game to the news- papers. Swear Off One Season, Back the Next. He may be peaceful by nature and fair minded, but if he doesn’t dis- agree with the umpire when the heavy slugger of the team is called out on strikes, said heavy slugger tight away tals him as a weak leader. The louder a manager wails about or objects to a umpire’s decision, the more efficient he is sometimes looked upon, There are something like 150 sand- lot teams in Washington at present and, along about the middle of Aug- ust, 149 managers will declare that they are through with the thankless job of managing «@ ball club forever. But the following winter, when the big league managers start on their annual trek to the sunny south, 150 sandlot managers will be back on the job signing players. on before the IN THE COLLEGE CORNER By JACK ESPEY FTER several weary years of ill- ness, college baseball in the East and South is beginning to sit up in bed, and, according to signs and reports, soon will be able to go downstairs dor meals. Every one, in- cluding the professionals, should be glad to learn of this. Signs of new life, evidence that the sport is on the mend in Wash- ington, at least, have been appar- ent since the 1930 season opened. At all of the local colleges sponsoring baseball there have been larger num- bers of candidates for the teams, larger crowds at the games and more discussion of the sport than in three or four years past. And, moreover, the caliber of our teams this year is higher than for some time. Last week we mentioned the fact that the South is showing greater interest in college baseball, as testi- fied by Billy Rapp, Cleveland scout, who has been roaming Dixie among other places in search of professional prospects of the “intellectual” group. Now, thanks to Mr. George Daley, of the New York World, and Mr. Andy Coakley, coach of Columbia, we hear of the new life of the game above the Mason and Dixon line. College Leagues Help. Says Mr. Daley: “The new inter- collegiate league made of Yale, Prince- ton, Columbia, Pennsylvania, Cornell and Dartmouth is lending zest. The addition of at least two or more col- leges would help, in the. EF” My Andy Coakley * said ‘Six is much better than the ‘on four (Columbia, Pennsylvania® Cornell and Dartmouth), but eight would be bet- ter than six. It needs a little widen- ing. ois ii Continuing, declares Daley: In | my opinion a second league made up, say, of Fordham, Brown, Holy Cross, Georgetown, New York University and Boston College would be even more helpful. Harvard, too, should. be in- cluded in one or the other. That would lead to an all-college series between the two winners and the best jteam in the East would be definitely established. It’s fun to play, but it’s more fun to play for something.” We hope that the suggestion of a second intercollegiate league in which Georgetown would be a member is followed up before another season rolls around. Most of the teams named usu- ally schedule one and another every year, and what now are virtually meaningless contests could, in the in- terestg of all, be given some tance through the formation of 4 league. With a league the competi- tion would be greatly enlivened, since the members would have something to strive for, as the championship. Georgetown has played to crowds of over 1,200 on several occasions this spring. It is logical to assume that the figures would be doubled, even trebled, if ite games factored in some championship competition. Former Pro Stars Are Coaches. College baseball is a more attractive game today because of the presence of former professional players as coaches, says Billy Rapp: Aided by these coaches, the players are show- ing a smarter brand of baseball, he explains. Some of the former big league stars now coaching college teams are Jack Barry, of the Athiet- ics, with Holy Cross, Jeff Tesreau, of the Giants, with Dartmouth; Joe Wood, of the Red Sox and Indians, 'with Yale; Jack Coombs, of the Ath- etics, with Duke; “}’oose” MoCor- mick, of the Giants, * with Army, and career was cut short by the recur- rance of an old football injury sus- tained during his college days at Holy Cross, He was with the Nats and the Tigers for brief periods before he finally gave up playing. Smith, of Georgetown, is probably the youngest coach with professional experience in college ranks. Three years ago he was playing for Notre Dame. “In 1938 he received & trial from the New York Giants 4 last year finished the season with the Braves. It is understood that Smith will resume pro baseball following the present college season. He May go with Albany in the Eastern League. Gardner to Seek Grid Berth. Little Joey Gardner, 140-pound re- serve quarterback on Georgetown’s eleven last fall, and the lad whom the referred to as the perfect example of a brainy student and athlete, will re- turn to the campus next fall, hoping to win the signal calling berth. He has attended Georgetown four years already but he didn’t go out for foot- ball until his junior year. He is eligi- ble, therefore, to play one more season. Gardner, along with 30 or 40 other gridiron devotees, is working out dally under Coach Tom Mills in spring practice. Thus far, the Blue and Gray mentor has kept quiet concern- ing the probable line-up of his 8 next fall. In keeping with the Notre See system which he taught under Knute Rockne before coming to the Hilltop, Mills is giving his charges the hardest part of the training in the spring. It is this time of the year when Notre Dame teams, or, rather, all teams using the Notre Dame system, take on the appearances they make in the fall. As a result of the strenuous spring practice, they are ready to play football as soon. as September arrives. COLLEGIATE SPORTS PROGRAM FOR WEEK TOMORROW. Baseball——Maryland vs. V. Blacksburg, Va.

RIVAL’S LEG IS BROKEN Special to The Washington Post. Warrenton, Va., May 3.—Twelve of the best leapers in the East went to the post in the ninth annual running of the Virginia Gold Cup race today over the Elway Hall course. Jack Skinner, on the Flying Horse Farm’s entry, Soissons, a brown gelding, led the field home. Five of the original starters were able to negotiate the hard 4-mile course, with 17 fences-en route, ; ss Baldwin Spillman’s Drummer Boy, with Tom Walter up, led for the first five fences, but stopped. Here it was that Mrs. Somerville’s Troublemaker took the lead and held it until almost the first third of the race. Jack Skin- ner then went t~- the van with Sois- sons and was never beaded. Coming down a steep hill within last obstacle in the path to the finish flag, Forelark went down. Over the last fence, Ballast, second, started a drive after Soissons and when almost abreast, broke his front leg, within 100 yards of the finish. Soissons finished first, Miss M. E. Altemus’ Thornbrack second and Bul- gold, with Reginald Bishop in the “} saddle, third. Ten thousand people crowded the green. rolling hills of Elway to wit- ness probably the most grueling fin- ish in the history of the Gold Cup. Jack Skinner drove a_ well-timed race and sent his mount to the front at just the right time. After taking the lead he never relinquished it, and was never in danger until Ballast II started his drive that brought about his untimely finish. Troublemaker was fourth. _In thfe forenoon, the Clovelly Cup was won by J. L. Johnston's Maid of ‘Mars, piloted by Lucien Keith; Imp Whiskey was second and Prin- cess Clovelly third. Mrs. J. C. Ham- ilton’s Pomono won the Whitehall Cup, run immediately after this race, and R. C. Williams’ Gold Finch was second. Both of these faces’ were run prior to the Virginia Gold Cup and were both 2-mile jaunts. Those starting in the Virginia Gold Cup were Merry Widow, owned by E. J. Kaufman and ridden by A. R.

An open Iete ter was circulated yesterday which states that numbering east and west streets in Rosemont is an unjust di- scrimination against that’section, and intimates that this discrimination is for the purpose of giving a set-back to Rosemont’s “rapid development as the city’s leading residential section.” The numbering of east and . west streets, the letter states, should begin with the annexed territory and should not involve changing names of streets within the city at the time of the annexation, January 1 of this year, and if the numbering of streets is to be applied to any portion of the fof- mer city it should be to all.

One of the possible consequences of the future, assuming that’ the naval treaty shall have been ratified and ob- served by all parties, is the failure to obtain and hold cruiser parity with Great Britain. The only manner -in which substantial cruiser parity can be gained by the United States under the , treaty is by building small vessels car- rying 6-inch guns. After the United States had built such yessels it could not turn about and build vessels carry- ing 8-inch guns. At the expiration of the treaty in 1936 all but 22 of Great _Britain‘s cruisers will he over age, while practically all of America’s vessels will | “be new. Great Britain can then decide to build 10,000-ton vessels with 8-inch guns to replace its present small cruis- ly! The United States; with no ships to replace,’ could not“do~ so, without go- ing beyond the limit of tonnage parity. The treaty’ provides for a conference -in 1935 to. consider an extension or re- vision of the agreement, and it is stipu- lated that none of the powers shall then be prejudiced by its previous undertak- ings. Great Britain will have entire liberty to change “its program from. smalj to large cruisers, and with its vessels mostly obsolete the time for «replacement will have arrived. Since America’s small cruisers will not have ' become obsolete, it can not replace them unless it abandons the parity rule and begins. competitive building. Thus, while the United States and Great Britain may still agree upon the principle of cruiser parity after 1936, the way will be open for immense Brit- ish superiority, without in any way contravening the letter or spirit: of-.the treaty. Britain will have big cruisers and the United States will have small ones. The United States, under the treaty, has the right to reach cruiser parity with Great Britain, but only by build- ing small cruisers: The danger in adopting this method of reaching parity is that a large tonnage would be “frozen” in small cruisers by 1936, at which time Britain’s tonnage of small cruisers would be obsolete and open to wTeplacement by an equal yornag of large cruisers... The right of replacement, if exer- cised by Great Britain in the shape of cruisers. of 8-inch guns,- would nullify parity in fact, while preserving an - parent equality of tonnage. Naturally, the United States would look with disfavor upon a change of British policy in favor of big cruisers, coming at a time when the United States could not build such vessels with- out rupturing the parity principle. But however distasteful this situation would be to the United States, no objection could be made. Great Britain would be entirely within its rights. A number of small cruisers may be useful to the United States as com- merce destroyers, but it would be folly to build a lot of such vessels merely for the sake of reaching parity with Great Britain. The option granted by the treaty is a deceptive gift. The question ~ of replacement can not be ignored. The situation that will exist in 1936 must be considered. In that year practically no American cruisers will be subject to replacement, while Great Britain will : the free to build at least nine 10,000-ton cruisers carrying 8-inch guns. EQUAL RIGHTS. Ruth McCormick spent $252,000 in her campaign against Senator Deneen, and captured the nomination. worth it? Was it her own money? Was such an expenditure contrary to public morals or law, or so offensive to senators that they will deny to Mrs. MeCormick the privilege of associating with them in case of her election? Col. James Hamilton Lewis captured the Democratic nomination at a total expenditure of $35. Was it worth it? Was it his own money? Was his ex- penditure contrary to public morals by being too low or too high, in the esti- mation of senators who now assert the right to exclude senators elected with- out the consent of the Senate? Republicans. will suggest, of course, ‘| that Col. Lewis has been profligate in squandering $35 in an utterly useless adventure, thereby setting a bad ex- ample to American youth by encourag- ing excessive expenditures for idle lux- uries. .But here the vestiges of individ- ual liberty emerge from,the flood of re- strictive laws, and fair-minded men wil! Lsternly demand that Col. Lewis shall not be molested. When a man is for- bidden to spend his own money in run- ning for office, or in encouraging the office to. run toward him, liberty has de- parted from American shores. Natur- ally, man’s liberty is woman’s too. Democrats may say that Mrs. Mc- Cormick spent too much money. They may apply the same argument against prodigality that'is to be used with such terrible force against Jim Ham Lewis. But she has the same defense, and. in addition she can claim that the object she sought was worth the cost, which is something that might stick in the throat-of Jim Ham. : If charges of corruption should be laid against one of these candidates, justice will cry out unless it be laid against both. An investigation of Mrs. McCormick, without an equally search- ing examination of her gallant but plausible rival, would be a blow at the foundations of sex equality and civil may develop that Jim Ham could ac- complish. more political wizardry with $35 than Mrs. McCormick with $252,- 000. Let. pitiless publicity throw its light upon this matter in all its phases. ‘RED PROPAGANDA. There is a possibility that the dotu- ments made. public by the New York police, purporting to prove that Moscow is responsible for Communist activities in the United States and that the Amtorg Trading Corporation, in New York, and the Soviet Information Bureau, in Washington, are the Ameri- can agencies through which the Soviet government. distributes funds and places agents to foment strikes and in- dustrial disorders, are forgeries. Boris Skirvsky, head of the information bureau, and Peter Bogdanov, chairman of Amtorg, lost no time branding them as such. But the documents appear to be genuine and they come to light at a time when in Germany the government is making vigorous protest to the ac- credited Soviet Ambassador against the propagandizing of red agents. Amtorg, through its chairman, demands immediate action by the New York police looking toward authentication or disproof of the documents. It would seem, however, that the burden of dis- proof rests on Amtorg and the in- formation bureau. If these documents are forgeries the Russian agencies can demonstrate the fact. The Soviet government remains un- recognized by the United States because the activities of the Communists are aimed at undermining the foundations of established governments. Moscow makes no secret of the fact that it is working to overthrow‘the world’s gov- ernments. Amtorg and the informa- tion bureau. ostensibly are commercial and trade organizations, but Amtorg keeps in close touch with established Soviet embassies and its formal per- mission is necessary for visits by Americans to the Soviet republic. Since Soviet embassies and legations else- where have served as disseminating ‘centers for red propaganda, it is not unreasonable to suppose that the trad- ing corporation and the information b u have been used for purposes of Communist propaganda and revolution. ’They would be traitors to the cause of communism if they should refuse to obey orders from Moscow to carry on the system of propaganda that aims at the destruction of all other govern- me » Was it liberty within this Union of States:~“It what did the speculators do? ments by force and violence, All com- mercial ies of the Soviet are out- posts,of communism. Mr. Bogdanov in labeling the docu- ments forgeries and calling upon Com- missioner Whalen for a “thorough in- vestigation” very carefully points out, that Amtorg did a business with American firms totaling, in 1929, $150,- 000,000. “Publication of the letters,” he said, “may cause substantial damage to us and to the numerous American firms with which we are doing busi- ness.” This is the old -bait held out by Moscow for American recognition. “Trade the safety of your country and the permanency of your institutions,” says the Soviet, “for the dollars your merchants might make by doing busi- ness with us.” The fact that American trade with the Soviet has become size- able will not prevent a thorough in- vestigation of the present affair. - §$PECULATORS AT WORK. The week ended with a stock market depression characterized as the most severe since that of November 13, when Wall street was struck the hardest blow it ever suffered. Pivotal issues, includ- ing a number of the so-called blue chip securities, were driven off 5 points, 10 points, and more. Close observers: of the securities markets profess to be sur- prised that a reverse should have come at this particular time. The President’s speech before the-Chamber of Com- merce of the United States was reas- suring to the public. The New York Federal ,.Reserve Bank on Thursday reduced its rediscount rate to 3 per cent, an action that ordinarily should have been marked by an upward swing of prices. Why, then, did stock prices drop last week? Last fall business experienctd a ma- jor crisis, the severity of which may not be questioned. It weathered the storm. Under the careful direction of Presi- dent Hoover a huge building program was launched and counteracting influ- ences to restore confidence were called into being. Slowly but surely business began to improve, and the security mar- kets reflected the improvement. But : They foregaw the opportunity to take advan- tage of improving conditions.

President Hoover’s request for an ap- propriation of $10,660,000 in the second deficiency bill with which to begin con- struction of Black Canyon dam in the Colorado River is certain to precipitate a new fight over the project in Con- gress. The Arizona delegation will op- pose the item on the ground that the power and water rights of that State have not been recognized. Indications are that other Western States will join in the general chorus of complaint. Appropriation of funds is the last step toward actual construction of this huge power and storage dam that will cost the Government at least $165,000,- 000. ‘But Arizona has one more card to play—its threatened suit to enjoin the Government from starting the work. A statement from the Arizona Colorado River Commission and the State’s attor- ney general serves notice that action will be instituted in the Supreme Court if the appropriation is granted. The suit will be based on the argument that it is unconstitutional for the Govern- ment and six States to force Arizona into an agreement as to its rights in the Colorado. Other States which are dissatisfied with Secretary Wilbur’s allocation of water and power will no doubt be heard from in Congress. ‘Nevada demands one-third of the power to be generated, but contracts negotiated by the Interior Z| “Da, Da!” Department allow that State but 18 per cent. The bill provides that States and municipalities should be given prefer- ence in the allocation of power, but con- tracts negotiated allow 9 per ent to private corporations. Utah, Colorado and Wyoming are complaining about the price the Gov- ernment proposes to charge for this power. It is contended that the rate of 1.63 mills per kilowatt hour is the mini- mum that will return the Government’s investment within 50 years, and that it is too low to be competitive. This leads to two serious objections. First, the States in the upper basins fear that this cheap power in the lower basin will ruin their industries and discourage the location of new plants in the inter- mountain country. Second, there will be no surplus from the operation of Black Canyon dam to provide for con- struction of other projects for the bene- fit of the inland States, as the bill con- templates. These States claim that they ratified the Colorado River com- pact, which makes the project possible, only because of the prospects of secur- ing other dams farther up the river. They demand that the Government ap- pfopriate out of the Treasury for the Flaming Gorge and similar projects, if no surplus is to be built up from sale of power at Black Canyon. Congress can not consider the appro- priation without opening this compli- cated situation to review. It is well to probe into the ‘subject again, before taking the people’s money to present cheap power to a favored section. NIGHT BASEBALL. The first baseball game played: under the glare bf powerful floodlights proved a success. True, the final score was 13 to, 6, but there was general agreement among players of both the Wichita and Des Moines teams as well as sporting writers and spectators that the unusual conditions of lighting had nothing to do with the score. Four errors were made during the entire game, all of them in the infield. Outfielders had no trouble handling flies under the glaring lights, and the score itself testifies to the fact that artificial lighting does not affect batters’ eyes. Twelve thousand fans witnessed the game. Night baseball has advantages. In smaller communities it is difficult to get a large turnout to afternoon games. Provided the lighting equipment is sat- isfactory, as seems to be the case, thou- sands will be able to enjoy baseball. at night where now only hundreds are able tators will be more comfortable in the cool of after dark than under the broil- ing afternoon sun. In the larger sense, however, night baseball will be beneficial in that it will result in decreased consumption of such indigestibles as hot dogs and it should result in increased labor output in American cities. How many work- hours do the American people sacrifice annually to indigestion caused by in- judicious ball park nibbling What ac- zomplishments are sacrificed to the urge to see the boys in action? Grandmother will be called upon to die less frequently if night baseball becomes the rule. TWO CHINESE GOVERNMENTS. Out of the confusion of war, famine, banditry and military rule which has kept China in turmoil for many years there has emerged at last a definite movement to form a new government. The authority of the ex- isting regime at Nanking has been openly flouted for more than a year. President Chiang Kai-Shek has put down several revolts, but the opposing war lords have now gained such strength that he can exercise no au- thority over them. Apparently China is again to be divided under two dis- tinct and hostile governments. The new regime will be set up at the ancient capital, Peking. The National- ist’s name for the historic city—Peiping —is to be discarded. Peking was cap- tured recently by Yen Hsi Shan, gov- ernor of the province of Shansi. Yen will become head of the new govern- ment, with Marshal Feng Yu-hsiang as chief military commander. Wang Chin- wei, radical leader, has been selected to organize a political party which will sponsor the new government. These three powerful leaders are proceeding on the theory that the government at Nanking is merely a dictatorship. The most interesting thing about this movement is that it proposes to aban- don military dictatorship. A “people’s congress” has been called to meet in Peking soon. Delegates from 14 of China’s 22 provinces are expected to participate in organization of the new regime. The objective is to set up a permanent_ _and stable government— apparently one that will be amenable to some extent to the will of the people. One of the most: severe criticisms against President Chiang Kai-Shek is that he has failed to provide a repre- sentative government. In spite of its peaceful representa-| to get away. from their offices. fence ‘tions, the Peking. regime is committed to the destruction of Presidént Chiang’s power. Instead of oné; government fighting rebellious troops, China is now to witness the clashing of two hostile governments. Yen is calling a congress to make a popular appeal, but he has already proclaimed himself head of the © new government, with the assistance of China’s most powerful rebel military chief as head of his armies. It ig already evident that the Peking regime can offer no relief from the military intrigue and consequent economic des- olation from which China is suffering. Furthermore, it is by no means certain that the personalities brought into close association by this political maneuver will be compatible, Yen and Feng have been closely united in their opposition against the Nanking governe- pment, but should they succeed in crush- ing President Chiang’s organization there would probably be a struggle for supremacy between them. The third member ‘of the trio, Wang Chin-Wei, ia. completely out of step with the other two. Wang is a radical and inclined | toward communism: Exiled by the Nanking government he has spent re- cent years in Moscow, and is closely allied with the element that is trying to communize China. Yen, on the other hand, is a conservative. Out of such a combination of person- alties and circumstances China can exe significance of the movement at Peking seems to be that it will strengthen the anti-Nationalists and perhaps intensify the military campaigns. LE The Bureau of Engraving admits that the imprint on the new bills can be removed with a pencil eraser, but the new bills being what they are not many will try the experiment.

The District of Co- lumbia Federation of Women's Clubs has always taken an active part in all child welfare and child health measures. A feature sine the annual meeting in wi th of the federation will be the election of officers. ‘Mrs. Edgar B. Meritt, who is just finishing her first term, is as- sured of reelection, although there is much speculation on who the next president of the Federation of Clubs of the District of Columbia will be when Mrs. Meritt has served the terms allowed under the constitution of the. federation. Mrs. John F. Sippel, president of. the General Federation of Women’s Clubs, is also assured of reelection at the biennial convention which will ‘be held in Denver June 5 to June 14, Mrs. Sippel, who lives in Maryland within easy motoring distance of Washington, spends most of every day and many evenings at the national headquarters at 1734 N street north- vee She is almost always at her desk by 9 in the morning to direct the work of 3,000,000 women of the federated clubs of the United States and foreign lands. Mrs. Sippel has just returned from 2 10,000-mile speaking trip across the United States to the Pacific Coast and through the Panama Canal to Cuba. This up-to-date club executive flew- from Panama to Cristobal. On her tour of visits to the clubs and conferences Mrs. Sippel found much interest in the enrichment of the community project of the Gen- eral Federation of Women’s Clubs and the efforts to encourage the young women to join in the work of the organization’ as regular or junior workers. In Panama the club women have one great common interest, Mrs. Sip- pel discovered, and that is the estab- lishment of a junior college in order that the young students will not have have to leave their home land for ' advanced ‘schooling. At present there is no institution of higher education along the Istimus. Washington club women who have displayed much satisfaction at Mrs. Ellen Spencer Mussey, of the District, being nominated for the roll of honor of the National League of Women Voters, were equally pleased that an- other Washington woman was given this signal honor by the league when Mrs. Mina C. Van Winkle, chief of the Woman’s Bureau of the Metro- politan Police, was elected at the na- tional convention on Friday in Louis- ville for a place on the roll of honor as being the outstanding woman from the State of New Jersey who con- tributed toward progress of women and suffrage.

After dinner was served the meeting was called to order by the president, Miss Esther Gude. Chairmen of all the committees gave interesting reports showing the past year to have been one of the most successful since the organization of the club eight years ago. The permanent. work committee re- ported greater activity than during any preceding year. Under the im- mediate direction of this committee the club is now rendering financial , assistance to seven young women who are receiving college and professional and business training. This group of young women, which the club is as- sisting is*diversified in its educational work. The various members of the group. are specializng in law, medi- cine, journalism, library work, home economics and secretarial work. Miss Elizabeth Haney, who was sent as a delegate to the recerit Zonta district meeting at Albany, gave an interesting report of that conference.

The Horse Is King in Washington With Springtime Shows Coming Upon Us in Bewildering Succession The Season Opened Yesterday With Gala Day at Wardman Park Saddle Club; Children Will Have Their Innings Saturday at So- ciety Show; National Capital Horse Show Association Plans Five- Day Program; Miss Hughes’ Engagement Rouses Much Interest Among Friends. in Washington. ’ 0 By JEAN ELIOT. § ies horse is king in. Washington just now. For weeks lovers of horses and horse racing have been journeying out. of town in search of the sport which has so potent an appeal—to Bowie or Havre de Grace or Pimlico for the races, to Middle- burg or the Green Spring Valley for those thrilling cross-country runs with gentlemen riders up. And in mid-May there will be another exodus of racing fans to Louisville for that racing classic, the Kentucky Derby. But meanwhile right here in town one horse show will follow upon the heels of an- other. The “season” opened yesterday with the Wardman Park Saddle Club Show, ar- ranged as a benefit for the Chaumont Unit of the American Women’s Legion and doubly interesting for that, but a good show on its own. Its chief ‘‘news interest” lay in the fact that Paulina Longworth, daughter of the Speaker of the House and Mrs. Long- worth, made her debut as an equestrienne. Then, next Saturday will come the Society Show of the Preece Riding School in that picturesque little ring in Massachusetts ave- nue, donated by the Misses Patten, which lies beside the famous ‘“‘pink palace’’—now no longer pink—-which was the home of Mr and Mrs. Benjamin Holcombe and which now belongs to Mr. and Mrs. Hugh D. Auchin- closs, jr. And the, last four days of the fol- lowing will be given over to the National Capital Horse Show out at Bradley Farms. The ‘“‘society shaw” is Mrs, James F. Cur- tis’ pet project, for which she always brings her horses on from Aiken. It is sponsored by the smart little group with which she is affiliated and to their youngsters it is the event of the spring season. ‘Indeed, this is usually known as the children's show, al- though some of their elders take part, as there are numerous children’s ciaszses. It always brings out the smvrtest gallery of any show of the year. Luncheon is served be- tween the morning and afternoon p2riods and the scene then is especially gay, with 2uimat- ed. groups~-lunching at small tables Ainder the trees and enticing viands displayed under a marquee, ” ” * “ ANY visitors are expected for the Na- M tional Capital show to be held on May 14; 15, 16 and 17, which will have a merry climax in the hunt ball at the Willard on Saturday night,.May 17. The old bradley farm house, which is.a charming asset to the horse show grounds, will be used as a tea house, with members of the Women's Army and Navy League in charge, and the show will be- given in a delightful setting, the grandstands looking .off over rolling green meadows to the woods. It is possible that the Earl of Derby, dis- tinguished British sportsman and statesman, might be in attendance at the opening day of _the show, ‘for he is due in Washington on May 12 and, although he has come to this eountry especially. to attend the Kentucky Derby, that famous race Is not run until May 17. As most’racing fans know the American Derby derives its historic title by inheritance from the British Derby, named for an ances tor of the present earl, who was its most famous patron, Lord Derby will return to England in time for this race, which will be run at Epsom Downs on June 4. The Earl of Derby and his stepdaughter; Lady Maureen Stanley, arrived in this coun- try last week and were guests for a few days of Mr. R. Livingston Beeckman, former Gov- ernor of Rhode Island, and Mrs. Beeckman in New York. Later they went to Philadel- phia to stay with Mr. Joseph E. Widener, whose guest the earl will be at the Kentucky Derby. In Washington they will stay with Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Campbell Wallace. The friend- ship between Mr. Wallace, sometime United States Ambassador to France, and Lord Derby, is of long standing, the latter having - been Great Britain’s envoy in Paris for a jong period before his retirement from public life a year or two ago. Lord Derby and Lady Maureen Stanley will be received by the President and Mrs. Hoover while they are in town and will have luncheon at the White House. And, presumably, the British Ambas- sador and Lady Lindsay will entertain for them. The Pilgrims Society will entertain for Lord Derby in New York on Tuesday, on Wednesday he will be the guest of the Eng- lish Speaking Union at luncheon and that night he will attend a dinner of the Jockey Club. = a * - * * Her suffering from the result of a fall, Mrs. initiating anything in the nature of social ac- tivity at the White House beyond occasionally having a few close friends for. luncheon, tea or dinner. The injury to her back ‘is still painful, but the First Lady is now allowed to move about in a wheel chair, and latest reports are that she is making satisfactory progress toward complete recovery. 7” ~ * * LTHOUGH the announcement of the en- A gagement of Miss Elizabeth Hughes and Mr. William Thomas Gossett was made from New York, it seems probable that the wed- ding will take place in Washington. For Chief Justice and Mrs. Hughes expect to move some time this month into the hotse in R street, which they have purchased, and which Miss Helen Cannon has been occupying for the winter season. After that, presumably, Mrs. Hughes and her daughter will be per- manently established here. Although Mrs. Hughes has been-in town several times since the Chief Justice took the oath of office, she has spent most of her time in New York overseeing the breaking up of her home there. 3 Washington knew Elizabeth Hughes well as a child, but she was just budding ‘into womanhood when her father resigned from the Cabinet. She had been a student at Miss Madeira’s School and since then she has studied at the Brearley School and at Barnard College, from which she was re- cently graduated. She went’ through a period of invalidism in her early girlhood, but seems to have completely recovered. The son of Mr. and Mrs. J. T.

Society ty Folly "Spring Bride Wears White At Ceremony Color Usually Depends on Hour When Rite Is Performed. By VYLLA POE WILSON. S THE Easter clothes pageant A disappears into the social his- tory of the year a timid figure hesitates at the entrance to the stage ‘of the fashions. It is that of the spring bride, and while the bridal bouquet will not reach its largest pro- Portions until June, yet there are _— who risk the proverbial ckiness of a May wedding. | course, there is nothing in the doleful prediction. Probably in the beginning, the tradition arose from the overattention paid to June brides. Somehow or other, June fits into the marriage picture with its myriad roses, sweet scented air and the general air of hope, youth and happiness we have come to associate with this most joyous month of the welve. With the Victorian trend so pro- nounced there are signs in the sar- te@ial heavens that the white garbed PY bride will be the rule rather than the exception this spring. White in its varying shades of ivory, cream, or even oyster white, appears as the color de resistance of trousseau after trous- Beau. But whatever the costume or color of it, a bride, whether like a carved €ivory statue, or a moving fountain of ‘\ythe silvery lace and spraying tulle, or merely as the latest costume effort of fashion, holds the center of the stage. So let the merry wedding bells ring out whether in May or in June and Mendelssohn and Wagner provide the immortal wedding strains. Gown Must Fit the Hour. One thing to bear in mind for the bride is that the bridal gown should always be chosen in accordance with the time of day when the ceremony is to be performed. The bride who selects morning for her wedding un- less it is that mystic hour of high noon usually wears her traveling costume—a suit, or a silk dress ac- companied by a coat of cloth or dull silk. Looking around at the spectators at any wedding it is difficult to place the ages of the women present. For the women who are approaching or who have passed 40 there is only one real clethes secret. That is to think of them not in terms of pretti- ness but rather that of mature charm. This charm note can be struck not only in formal costumes by women of these years and upwards but in sport clothes as well. While they can be worn with grace and becom- ingness by women past 40 yet re- straint should be exercised. The thing to watch is that the colors be not too clear or too bright. In- stead they should have that delight- ful woodsy effect of grayed, yet with no trend toward sombreness. Some one has written that the woman over 60 can disdain the pre- vailing mode. There is much of truth in that statement, yet the vogue should not be altogether neglected. It is the age of the orchid or the violet and the genera] policy of the pastel should be maintained. After all is said and done, the only really successful clothes, no matter what the age of the woman who is to wear them may be, are “personalized clothes.” They must fit alone not the figure of the woman but her per- sonality as well. That was the charm of noted fashion plates of the past and it is the enduring fascination of those who gain the reputation of being the best dressed women in any group today. © Beautiful Blue Reigns. Once more beautiful blue, queen of rainbow of color, is visible through the myriad tints of spring fashions. It was Thomas Carlyle who once put the matter of color in a ', paragraph so neatly that it might ' well serve as a text for an atelier or sanctum of a modiste. The’ sage of Chelsea wrote: “What meaning lies in color. From the soberest drab to the high-flaming scarlet, spiritual idiosyncrasies unfold themselves in choice of color. If the cit betoken intellect and talent, so does the color betoken temper and heart.” Nowhere is color so exemplified as in the art of dress. No costume no matter how well cut or within the prevailing fashions, can withstand ‘ criticism. if its color is not suitable to the wearer of it. A cardinal point to be remembered in connection with color is that it must be suited to the purpose of the costume, that is if it is to be worn on the street, in the home or at a social gathering. Further more, it must be suited to the material and to the cut of the costume. Last of all. the mood should not be forgotten for this element plays an important part in the selection of the hue. of the gown or the ensemble. Women in selecting colors for their costumes might follow the maxim of Michelangelo, who was asked with what he mixed the colors for his marvellous work, ‘‘With common gense” was the terse reply. Here’s a hint as we leave the ques- tion of color for the present. Beware. the color scheme of the hat. On that “ne item hangs more than its full are of responsibility for the be- comingness of the entire costume. Always remember in this regard that @ woman can wear a color above her face which she could not afford to be seen with under her chin. It is the hair that makes the bridge be- tween the hat and the flesh of the face which solves the problem SO neatly. Dressed in Black Silk. Mme.

So says Mr. Webster of diction- ary fame and never suspecting what a vogue the word would have in 1930. Incrustation has invaded the fem- inine wardrobe from lingerie to wrap. It is the thing that makes “line’’ so subtly nd discreetly in today’s mode. It is the cause of elegance and of the intricacy of apparent simplicity in a garment, Lingerie. Lingerie owes so much of its love- liness to the incrustation of the re- | versible side of crepe satin material, for instance—a scalloped or border design of the crepe side of the mate- rial is incrusted on the satin night- gown or chemise or step-in. Match- ing georgette on satin or crepe lin- gerie makes very popular incrustation, for its especially softening effect. And perhaps loveliest of all are the incrustation of ecru lace on luxurious lingerie, the natural design of the lace being incrusted on crepe de chine, the waist, at which point it curves out toward the side and is left loose at the top to become a pocket. The Fullness of Skirts. The fullness of the evening gown skirts is due to incrustation. At the bodice or waistline the incrustations are very narrow, allowing the gown to fit tightly over the hips; from below the hips the gown begins to flare, slightly and subtly at first, and be- coming fuller and more gracious as the incrustations become wider to- ward the bottom of the skirt. Some- times if takes a great many sections the gown. less pronounced, less full and flowing than the evening gown, but definitely and inevitably there, and the crepes that are so popular for afternoon wear take kindly to incrustation. Often a frock looks like a blouse and skirt, but isn’t—the skirt is incrusted onto the blouse in such a. manner that the appearance is of a two-piece frock instead of one plece. D. C.

Hearts of Lett § h Dressin Summer s 0 ps ware’ rence essing. ‘Linen Gowns to the Fore. The vogue for linen for summer wear is forecast in-the many blouses and trimmings for linen in the spring attire. Since this is a suit year linen stiits of every color and hue as well as every cut will be in order For the _ tailor-made girl’ the strictly tailored suit of white or colored linen is particularly timely this year. But the individualistic suits belted and with ruffles follow- ing the Eton or the Russian vogue are just as good as far as smartness goes in line as they are in cloth. Even the ensemble costume com- posed of a sleeveless dress and a seven-eighth or three-quarter length coat are developed in linen. e present hour fad for figures and striped effects is reflected in the material for these linen suits and certainly have the advantage of look- est days. No. woman gives anxious thought to her summer wardrobe without making plans for her swimming and beach suits and linen is the material which has the first stamp of fashion for practical beach and sea wear. Some of the prettiest of the beach suits are made of gay striped linen with coats to match. Some of them even have huge purses for the knitting or sewing and an umbrella to match Since this is the summer of colored shoes it is quite to be expected that some of the -prettiest should be de- veloped in linen with hats and bags to match. There is a paradoxical note to the | linen summer slippers and sandals for the material is well shrunken be- | fore it is made up and when it gets | really soiled it can be scrubbed -with a | brush and retinted with any number | of commercial preparations especial- ly for that purpose. oe 2 This and short Our Soccieltead DRESSES particular model is of blue crepe with white orgatidy collar cuffs. . sleeves and flared skirt accent the” feminine note. 1 Zirkin Incorporated 821 14th Street i} = =) GE to r 4 +Group of | at 15 the tufted suits of all are those with sharply flaring, shorter than short pants that owe their flare to careful in- crustation. Quite the gayest beach pajamas have incrusted borders of many colors. And nary a tweed sports dress but has its flare from some point below the hips, and you wonder how in the world it’s done, such a tricky, sub- tle flare, and then you see that the hand of an artist-couturier has been at work at the business of—incrusta- tion. Often an incrusted beltline is the center of a line that starts wel! up on the waist and curves or jags to a finish at the point of flare in the skirt. Coats. A coat may have a shoulde? capelet or a back cape, or perhaps two capes, one over the shoulder and one under the arm, that incrusted on ever so skillfully. Or if a coat has successfully avoided a cape this seasons, it copies a dress of sijl- houette in normal waistline and flared skirt effects with the aid of incrusta- tion. Some coats hide a "leather belt un- der incrustation in the back only. Others have an incrusted strip from the shoulder to the hips just below has been forces the though it were about to have a cur- tain rod run through it. The effect is startling and is a fit companion for cartridge pleating. Even chic little chapeaux have thetr incrustations—most particularly those sheer, dainty little meline things that are worn with tulle evening frocks, and that have lace. incrustations to match those on the gown. They're simply adorable—the minute you see one you'll know you can never be hap- py till you have one. The Art of Incrustations. If you think for a minute that in- crustations are easy to make, you have to think again! There isn’t any reason why you shouldn’t make incrustations if you fee] so inclined, but how you must practice them and how ruthless you must be with puckers—if it puckers at the seam before it’s ironed, there just isn’t any Santa Claus—because it will pucker afterward! Practice with yards and yards of unbleached muslin, and biases, and maybe you will reach incrustation Heaven after all. | Au revoir!

a Ba . —"s Crowding Berlin Add 80,000.Last Year to City’s Population of 5,000,000. Berlin, May 3 (A.P.).—The lure of the big city is as potent hefe as elsewhere, and the city fathers are greatly concerned about it. Berlin’s population increased by 80,000 last year through immigration of people from the country, thus making the metropolis a city of al- most 5,000,000. The influx exceeded by 20,000 last year’s emigration from all of Germany foreign countries. The movement rsists, too, despite the fact that prospects of finding « job in Berlin are meager. The hous- ing commission is much troubled about it, because it is simply impos- sible to find quarters for all these new Berliners. In most cases public welfare or- ganizations are obliged to come to the rescue of stranded individuals who, in their belief that money is easy to get in the capital, spend their last cents on railway -tickets to come here, Such relief expenditure runs into; millions of marks yearly.

Road Free From Speed Laws Do Not Apply and Cannot Be Enforced, Michigan Court Rules. Special to The Washington Post. Detrott, May 3-——Because the court held that State and city traffic regu- Jations do not apply on private prop- erty, a reckless driving charge against William Blackie, 35, 6062 Sixteenth street, was dismissed recently. In giving Blackie his liberty, Judge John J. Maher remarked that he believed the defendant deserved severe punish- ment and that he was exceedingly sorry he could not give it to him. Blackie was arresteq following an accident June 2, 1929, which occurred when he took a short cut through the driveway of a filling station at West Fort street and Coolidge highway. In the driveway he ran down John Shean, who received such a severe leg injury that he wore a cast until] March l, this year. The arresting officer testi- fied that Blackie had been drinking. Trial was delayed to determine the outcome of the victim's injuries, and when it finally came before the court the motion for dismissal was made by Leo Pigott, Blackie’s attorney. Pigott pointed out to the court that. private property is immune from traffic regu- lations.

Davies Work Ends Season At Corcoran Exhibition- Is Memorial to Artist Who Died in. Italy. By ADA RAINEY. HE culmination of the art; sea- son at the Corcoran Gallery is fittingly inaugurated by the ex- mibition of paintings and sculpture by Arthur B. Davies. The exhibition is in the nature of a memorial of his gifted artist, who died suddenly, un It in 1928 and who was con- Biders@ important enough to be given Ma@meorial exhibition by the Metro- POiten Museum, New York, which mes here direct to the Corcoran Gallery. » Two large and one small rooms, with the textiles overflowing into the hall, is the considerable space given othe works of Davies by the gallery. Not for a long time has one artist been accorded such a large exhibition. he reason is not far to seek. Davies $ an individual artist, a man who yzpressed himself in many media, whose imagination was not limited o the three dimensianal world but > dared to plunge into the fourth mesrsional realm to find themes for paintings. The ideas that he /aptured there have been transcribed with beauty of color and charm of form, which are at times capricious, but always stimulating anq original. He is often misunderstood by those who insist on meticulous drawing and representative form, but he was @ master draughtsman and when he feparts from the norm it is with pre- conceived purpose to express some- thing that can not be expressed with the perfect outer form, His creations are dream creations, but he dreamed beautifully and mystically. It is this element of mysticism that frequently baffles the materfal mind, The artist loved music and was ever seeking to express in rhythm the soul of mu- sic, which is vague and not to be eap- tured . by direct. representation. Whether he was right in seeking his inspiration in music rather than in the plastic arts may be open to queés- tion. Certain it is that these vague forms ere replete with a quality that appeals to the imagination, to those ‘who love to dwell in that realm of feas that are best expressed in =iythmical lines and fare and éx- }quisite color. Akin to Ryder. Davies is akin to Albert P. Ryder in America, and to Redon in France, "yet he is not indebted to them at ell in his manner of working. Rather, he is truly self-taught and inspired by his own particular muse, that evidently inspires him to paint ‘things that no one else does. He is by turn romantic and classic, but classic not at all in the academic | sense. He is in sympathy’ with the beauty of anclent Greece~arid her nymphs, faunhs, her gods and god- desses. They people his dreams. He is akin to Theocratus in spirit. “Tis- |' sue Parnassus” is one of the most satisfactory and delightful paintings by this mastef. This is in the Phil- ‘HMps Memorial Gallery, with other works. Davies was given a retrospec- tive exhibition by Mr. Phillips last spring. Mr. Phillips has written a »Monograph on Davies, one of the — books published by that gal- ery. There is great delight t6 one who can wander through the rooms at the Corcoran seeing a beauty that ,is rare and strange, one who is not troubled by the too literal mind, who can feed on things of the universal that are related to the world of imagination who finds joy in pure olor and lovely forms without any )iliterary significance. Davies took igreat delight in the human form, ith the nude figure alone or set in Jandscape which is quite as imagi- mary as the figures. But his many ‘studies of the nude figure, done in pastel, are academically correct and rie with the most academic draughts- an. . For instance, ‘Salutation of: the Wanquished” and “The Conferénce,” hich are drawings in white chalk On a black background, are strongly @fhythmical in the relation of the mude figures, which are splendidly Grawn,.

Oils Are Shown. The oils in one of the large rooms all by themselves show the most seri- ous effort of the painter. Severai paintings in the smaller room are joaned by Martin A. Ryerson, of Chi- cago. Here are some of the simpler and most delightful of the ti The naive “Our Hudson River,” is simplicity itself. “Semele” and “Listening Valleys Hear’. with “Helen, the Dawn Flower,” are all from the Ryerson collection as well as the larger “Sacramental Tree,” which is of the gaily decorated. figures of maidens and the sacred cow for sacri- fice. Then there are “Lake and Is- land, Sierra Nevada,” “Choral Sea” and the strange “Avatar,” which is oriental in feeling, ‘Maya, Mirror of Illusion,” lent by the Art Institute, Chicigo, which is of a gariand of figures with. the hills as a background and a deep pool reflecting the fllusion of the. mind, and showing the illu- sory quality of life. . : ’ “Leda and the Discour!,” also lent by the Art Institute, of Chicago, at- test to the admiration of an institu- tion for the elusive quality of Davies’ work, This is significant and proves that this artist is not the fad of the moment, but that there is a nent quality about his work ac - edged by those who see beauty. “Movement of Time” shows large figures silhouetted against dis- tant mountains. The figures have the flat decorative quality that many of Davies’ figures show. “Into the Moving. Night” is another of these imaginative groups that may be in- terpreted variously. The nude fig- ures, harmoniously placed in a sylvan landscape, are creatures of fantasy. Different in Nature. Of a different nature is “Italian Landscape, the Appenines,” where the great. masseés of the landscape are built\ into the paintings effectively. “The Silence of the Plains” shows a single figure against a lovely blue background, ,The beauty of line in this figure is exquisite. There is a festive feeling in “Wine Press,” which shows a nude figure with the back to the spectator. It is broadly drawn. The “Great Mother”. is a composition of rainbow-hued figures harmonized into a unity that shows the influence of cubism. Perhaps enough has been suggested as to the unique quality of the paintings of this man who drew from Greek, Italian and American sources. It is a great adventure of the mind to wander through the rooms and to Current Exhibitions CORCORAN GALLERY OF ART—Paintings, sculpture, litho- graphs and teztiles by Arthur B. Davies, until May 25.

There remains the small sculpture; enamels and wood carvings which are shown in ‘the cases, the rugs and tapestries and the black and white work to be noted. , .The rugs and tapestries are as origi- nal as the paintings. Davies, when he traveled in France and Italy, became interested in textiles and tesigned many quaint and fantastic patterns which were translated into rugs by Mile. Germaine Montreau, of Paris, and by M. La Boure, of La Manufac- ture Nationale Gobelin. The rugs are more satisfactory than the tapestry; their designs are of delightful quaint- ness, sometimes of animals, again of plants and flowers of charming forms. In the large rug, which is in the room with the water colors, there is a geometric design carried out in colors of brilliant and rich tones. In many of the rugs, which are’ placed against the walls of the entrance stairs, there is a quality of mingled color and line which makes of them paintings in textiles, that are valu- able and various. The smaller tapes- tries are.not so satisfactory as to color, due largely to the texture of the wool used in the weaving. The small enamels of jewel-like brilliancy of curious and undefined form seem like playthings of an artist in his moments of relaxation. The figurines are of various forms, many of incomplete form, most of them of fine and delicate modelling which show the work of the craftsman who found no medium too far removed from his ken to be used for artistic expression. Died in Italy. In this retrospective exhibition of the work of an American artist who somehow managed to remain entirely himself despite the various influences that,streamed into his mind, we have an example 6f how the contribution of the beauty of Italy, for instance, may become the heritage of an Amer- igan artist because it gives of the spirit of Italy rather than the outer form of that nation’s art or physical cottformation. Davies was in Italy, when, a year ago last October he died suddenly from a heart attack. He was constantly experimenting. He was of a kindred nature to the great Leonardo who was an alchemist, an experimenter and a_ scientist. Davies was always seeking new forms of expression. He had great curiosity and an abundant caprice. He refused to be bound by the commonplace, by the obvious and was ever adventur- ing into realms of the spirit to gather riches to bring back to those who were akin to his mental nature. The Corcoran Gallery is to be congratu- lated upon the exhibition of a man so truly artistic and true to its tradition; the installation is artis- tically and finely arranged. It marks a high water level in the art of the year. The exhibition will be on view through May 25. Model Church. Of decided contrast to the work of Davies is the structure and interior decoration of the new University Me- morial Church on Sixteenth and 5 streets, dedicated last Sunday. The church stands for the best in mod- ern chufch architecture and deco- rations. Of Romanesque form, simple, dignified, structurally fine and true, the ohurch is a model for the com- bination of simple outer structure combined with the richness of the color within which comes solely from the windows of jewel-like stained glass. The carving of the tynpanum over the entrance door sounds the note of primitive unostentatiousness. It is }an almost flat carving yet m the round closely resembling the half frelief carvings of the Romanesque churches of Europe. Within, there is the glory Of stained glass which is practically the only decoration of the interior with the exception of the carvings of capitols and choir. There are two large rose windows over the gallery and choir which are geometric in f6érm, although symbolic in con- tent. The windows, the work of Calvert, Herrick & Riedinger, of New York, are something new in the way of win- dows usudlly seen in churches. They have the feeling of the old medieval windows of the best period. They glow with brilliant blues, reds and greens, happily combined into a jewel- like splendor that radiates the whole interior. In thé afternoon the win- dows are perhaps at their best when the western sun streams through them lighting up the interior with a glow of richness. Fortunately, the designers have not attempted any picturization. There “Little Mother,” one of the paintings by the late Arthur-B. Davies in the special ov "" easuatial exhibition at the Corcoran Gallery. = is only a symbolism adroitly carried out. Even this symbolism does not intrude itself. One has to seek for it, to find its relation to the mean- ing, which is rather half concealed than distlosed.. It ison the geometric design, appealing to the highest function of the mind rather than to the childish love for pictures that the accent is laid: These -designs are beautiful] and intricate, yet satisfy- ing to the aesthetic sense. The win- dows Stand out conspicuously against the simple stone walls of the church providing adequate decoration with- out superfluous ornamentation for the interior. If more modern churches would follow this simple, yet rich de- sign for their interiors, what im- provement would be achieved in our churches! - Not only are there two splendid rose windows put there are a number of lancet windows in the clerestory, which are companions with the two main windows and carry out the symbolism of the life of Christ. Nothing depressing in the church is seen. Instead there is an uplifting of the spirit that appeals universally, and is true to the teaching, or cer- tainly to the name of-the church. Most of the windows are memorials, a4 are most of the special decora- tions, but this element has been subordinated to the general effect and the memorial character has nothing of insistence on personal im- portance, which is so often the case in many memorial windows and statues. Certain it is that architect and artists worked together to pro- duce an organic unity that is truly a work of art, which makes for the joy of the human spirit. The church is open mearly all day and can be seen ,by any one interested. s * . = At the Arts Club this afternoon there will be a reception opening the exhibitions gf Minor S. Jameson and Paul Steintorf. Mr. Jameson will be one of the hosts of the occasion and he.will be assisted by Miss Mary A. Pugh. Mr. Jameson is*well known in Washington and is .a member of the Arts Club, the Landscape and the Washington Society of Artists. He paints mostly landscapes. Mr. Stein- torf will exhibit bromoils and brom- oil transfers. Mr. Steintorf has spent much time in Japan and many of the pictures represent his impressions of the country. There will also be a few Washington views in the collec- “Th é interesting exhibition of water color studies of living creatures in the South Seas by Elie Chever*%ange will continue for two weeks longer. Much intérest has been aroused by these fascinating water colors of the South Seas. * * * Paintings by Marjorie PhiMips will be on view at the Phillips Memorial Gallery beginning this week to con- tinue through the month> The paintings by Mrs. Phillips, who has exhibited in New York and Balti- more and has received many com- mendatory notices from the critics, are in the modern spirit, entirely in- dividual and spontaneous in manner, Mrs. Phillips has had her paintings hung on the line with those of the best known of present-day French painters, ,as, for instance, Bonnard and Cezanne, and they stand up well in comparison with these well-known painters. E, Pascual Monturiol, the Spanish artist who gave such an interesting exhibition of his paintiggs at the Yorke Gallery a year or so ago, is now having an exhibition in New York in the Fifty-Sixth Street Galleries continue through May 10. The exhi- hition is under the patronage of the Spanish Ambassador, Senor Do: Ale- jandro de Padilla y Bell, as it was when held in this city. At the Yorke Gallery beginning to- morrow there will be an exhibition of the water colors by the English artist, Vivian Guy. Mr. Guy has made the journey across the country in an atitomobile, spending seven months en route and painting on the way. He was thrilled with the be uty of the country and especially delighted in the great plains even more than whe mountains which he crossed on the way to California. Mr. Guy also had a most interesting adventure in being one of ‘he suite of the Prince of Wales when he went to India. He was .2corded every priv- llege and painted many of the bril- liant ceremonies that he witnessed on that mémorable occasion. His paint- to | sul ings are said to be brilliant with color. Many of them cepict the figures as well as the landacapes of the Far West. The water colors will be on view two weeks. The paintings of Hildegarde Hamil- ton will be on’view at the League of American Pen Women for two weeks beginning tomorrow. Miss Hamilton, it will be remembered, exhibited her paintings under the auspices of the Art Promoters Club at the Carlton Hotel about a month ago. The pres- ent exhibition will consist of an en- tirely different group of paintings. The American Federation of. Arts will hold its annual convention be- ginning May , 14 and continuing through Saturday, the 17th. It will be held at the Mayflower Hotel for the principal sessions with special sessions at the Ohamber of Com- merce and the Library of Congress for the music sections which will be add- ed this year. The session on May 16, in the audi- torium of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, will be con-| | cerned principally with art in indus- | and acivertis- | f This is \f significant and is a most important |} try, in manufacturin ing and kindred subjects. element to be considered and will doubtless produce far-reaching ts. The special program will be pub- lished next week. At the Venable Gallery there is an exhibition of miniatures by Margaret Stottmeyer. These portraits on ivory were most of them done from life, with no use of the photograph in the work. Miss Stottmeyer has studied in New York, but is now living in the city. |} Some of the miniatures are very small, the Others of the usual size. Many of them are of Washingtonians. They will be on view at Venabie's for two weeks. Also at the same gallery there is an exhibition of the etchings.of Frank W. Benson, who is noted for his studies of water fowl. These etch- ings were on view at the Arta Club earlier in the season. They are full of movement and the atmosphere of the open. They will be on view through the month. re- |i Ae ree so eee ~~ a ——— eee ——— —> — 6 nO ; $s rp Anee ; ‘ . ? ; : : i yh en } } A. ; : ’ h™ ' “Bi i} Don’t M iss the FLOWERING DOGWOOD At Its Best in Cedar Hill Washington’s Most Beautiful Memorial Park ; ' f | ; TERS Se.

Jarrell Co., realtors and developers. to resemble the inlay of holly used so frequently by this famous designer. The vanity, with its tall, upright mir- ror, reminds one 6f the pier glass used in the eighteenth century. The chair has the lyre back, and even the drawer pulls are careful reproductions of the period design. Twin beds are used to good advantage in this group- ing, while quaint hooked rugs and a large rug of appropriate design lend their added charm. Particularly for the modern guest room, the Jacobean style offers the utmost in comfortable and livable furnishings. While the rugged lines of this type of furniture are decidedly masculine, it is because of this that it meets with such pronounced fem- inine approval. Especially in its panelings does this crcation reflect its period inspiration, furthér expressed by low-built cabinets, bun-shaped feet and by the drop handles of an- tiqued brass on the drawers. Diamond-matched Australian strip- ed walnut and Australian oak, togeth- er with small] rectangular inlays of maple burl form perfect bacxgrounds for the deep panel-moldings. Whe hanging mirrors are mounted by a lacy ornamentation which combine marquetry effects with pierced scroll design in Carpathian elm burl. Thus a happy and rich arrangement is ob- tained. Here the floors are bare ex- cept for smali oval axminster rugs, with rose predominating, strategically placed.

Recently a gentleman and his wife found here in our Leland development in Chevy Chase, just the home they had been search- ing for. But they delayed their decision—and in the meantime the house was purchased by a bank exec- utive. The first gentleman asked that we construct a similar house for him—but unfortu- nately that is impossible. We have built nearly 250 homes in this section of Chevy Chase, but the five homes remaining unsold complete our operations in Leland. Ground and build- ing costs forbid their dupli- cation. Undoubtedly the outstanding values we have offered here in location, design, construction and ‘price, account for their quick sale.

ANGLERS Water-Power Development in French Rivers Is Much Resented. ARE INSPECTED BY EDGE Grenoble, France, May 3 (A.P.).— The anglers of France are up in arms against the march of progress, in the form of water-power development in the Alps, which they say is death to the trout. All down the valleys of the Ro- manche and Drac Rivers, from the foothills of the Alps to Grenoble, there are water-power installations which furnish the energy for electri- cal-metallurgical and electrical-chem- ical establishments, the first of which frightens the trout and the second of which pours out waste that kills him. i a eat a ee ee mm a me nm a ee : \ THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, MAY 4, - EE - eS er * a -_ — shown thé most recent and the most rtant scheme for harnessing the water power of the Alps, at. Chambon. This village of the vailey of the Ro- manche is destined to disappear with- in two years under 240 feet of water. A storage dam 390 feet high is be- ing built at Chambon to regulate the flow to the various power plants fur- ther along the valley and give them a steady supply the year round. This dam, which will cost $2,400,000, will increase the power of the installa- tions in the valley by 70,000,000 kilo- watt hours ann y. It is being built by a mixed company Of private capi- talists and public departments. It will be finished in 1932. The village of Chambon and its 200 inhabitants will be transferred to a higher point, which will cost some- thing more. But the enterprise will be profitable just the same, since it will enable glove factories farther down stream to work full time, and will permit the establishment of new chemical and metallurgical works. Thus it will increase immensely the economic activity and wealth of the region, though it will intensify the anguish of the trout fishermen. .

RPUTE TO BE BEAUTIFUL a Fifteen and a half miles of beaut!- ful shore drive will soon be available to} the Washington tourists who are vigiting Mount Vernon in ever-in- créasing numbers year by year. Work om the new Mount Vernon Memorial highway is progressing at many points along the route, affording tan- gible evidence of the fact that Wash- ington will have a memorial boule- vard of unexampled magnificence in 1982, the year set for its completion. orty feet wide, with a 10-foot shoulder on each side, the Mount /Vérnon Meniorial highway will begin ‘at.the Arlington Memorial Bridge and Célumbia Island, will traverse the fill now being made under“the south end of:the Highway Bridge, the two south spins of which will be rebuilt to af- ford enrance of the highway and will follow the winding shore line of the Potomac to a point in the City of Alexandria, where it will veer to the westward and fdllow down Washing- ton street to Hunting Creek; the south boundary of the city. For some miles below Alexandria the highway will again follow the river shore, bending ‘westward. again as it ap- ante the vicinity of Mount Ver- ngn. * Numerous bridges and fills simliar tojthe one depicted “in the picture will be necessary on account of the many streams and bends along the riven shpre. The fills are now being made in preparation for the building of the highway next year. Bridges along the route will harmonize in design with the Arlington Memorial Bridge. The route will be beautified by appropri- ate landscaping. Activity in acreage and. building sites along the highway route has grpatly increased in the last year. There is a consistent demand for good building’ sites on the route or overlooking the new highway. The topography of Arlington and Fairfax Counties, through which the highway is; being built, is particularly favor- ale to fine building sites overlook- ing the new boulevard. The highway route, being a rivershore drive, has @ general altitude of only a few feet above the water.. From the river the .lafid rises in a series of ridges, each overlooking the river shore. For ex- ample, Arlington Ridge is almost a mile from the river, but its elevation ‘affords a magnificent view of the river and the low ridge of land im- mediately befow which the highway is _ bding built When the Mount Vernon Memorial highway is completed there will be fine building sites created in both Arlington and Fairfax Counties on land that was formerly inappropriate for residence uses. Many of the exist- ing real estate developments, such as Aurora Hils, Oakcrest and ‘Belle Haven will contain sites from which fine views of this most beautiful of Federal highways may be obtained. Italians Seeking Raphael Madonna Detectives and Students in Galleries Are Leading in Hunt.: ‘Naples; May 3 (A:P,).—Italian art detectives, galleries ahd students are hunting for a missing Madonna by Raphael. Their search is complicated by the fact that the painting has been missing since the-sixteenth cen- tury, and the knowledge of its exist- ence was communicated only afew weeks ago by Prof. Genaro Monti, of the Royal.University of Bari. Prof. Monti came.upon records of the work in the archives of the noble Picco- lomini family. In 1542 Pier Francis Piccolomini, a Sienese noble, gave his daughter Sil- via in marriage to Innico Piccolomini. The records show that among the treasures in the bride’s dowry was “a round painting of the Madonna, the infant. Jesus sleeping and St. John, the work of Raphael of Urbino, which is valued at more than 200 shields.” The archives yield® the fact that the painting reached Naples. What happened to it is the present- day puzzle, A Raphael Madonna is worth a fortune, so the. search is worth while. Hotels Ask Law In Linen Theft ; Laundry Owners Agree to ’ Report Property Appar- ently Stolen. Special to The Washington Post. Detroit, May 3.—Hotels of Michigan may eventually have the protection of the State and the laundry owners against the theft of linens, according to J. Henry Pichiter, resident manager of the Hotel Statler. At a meeting of laundry owners and hotel men it was disclosed that there is. a law which prohibits laundries from possessing or cleaning linen be- longing to linen supply companies. A suggestion was raised to amend the existing law to include hotels in the effort to wipe out the 850,000 yearly’ loss which they incur as the result.of stolen towels arid napkins. Laundry owners have agreed to co-| operate with the hotel associations in reporting any hotel linens which may come to them from other sources. Soviet to Try Dirigibles.

CHAMBER SUPPORTS CFAVICE PAY’ RAISE National Defense Circles Are Gladdened by Action of National Body. PROJECT WINS STRENGTH Service circles have been consider- ably heartened by the expression of support given to the movement ‘to revise pay schedules when the United States Chamber of Commerce, on Thursday, adopted a resolution favor- ing rates of pay which “will afford compensation appropriate to the standards which should be main- tained in these services.” With support already given by numerous local chambers, including the Washington Chamber of Com- merce, it is felt that public opinion is‘ actually back of the plans to bring about an* upward revision in the pay schedules of the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, Coast and Geo- detic Survey and Public Health Service. The resolution, as adopted by the national chamber, read, “Existing pay schedules.for the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, Coast.and Geo- ice contain inequities in the rates of pay for different ranks and have been in force so long in substantially their present form: as obviously to require revision in accordance: with «present conditions. We believe that there should: be. such’ a revision as. will place the rates of pay for the sev- efal ranks in their upper relations and will afford compensation appro- priate to the standards which should be maintained in these services.” Following project last week by former Secretary of War Newton D. Baker, Lieut. Com- mander W. I. Lehrfeld, U.S. N., this week received a letter from Franklin D. Roosevelt, formerly ‘Assistant Sec- retary of the Navy and now governor of New York, in which Mr. Roose- velt said, “‘As a citizen thoroughly acquainted with e problems which daily confront officers of the Army pathy and accord with any measure or’ activity which may lead to more adequate compensation for the serv- ices such officers render to. the United States.” FROM AILL TO YOUR Saleh y= } Through Superior Patiiaehis me @ee WP PRINTCRAFT BLDG. 926-H St.NW.

Nash Oné@ of the most important matters discussed and acted.on at the meei- the of the executive committee of the Department of the District of) Columbia, the American Legion, last week was the proposal to create 4) large and permanent commercial, fiunitipal and Federal airport on the| Virginia side of the Potomac River, Adjacent to the Arlington National Cemetery, as well as directly across the river from the Lincoln Memorial | and Potomac Park. Resolutions adopted by Washington Post, Lincoln Tank Corps Posts protesting against | the locating of an airport in this | locality, previously adopted by these posts and objecting to the desecra- tion of Arlington by subjecting it to thé’ Noise, confusion and danger at-| tendant upon continual airplane Operations, were presented to the ex-| @cutive committee. It pointed out that the amphitheater and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier are) Continuously raided, while funeral Services are frequently interrupted by the swoopings and roarings of air- planes. The legionnaires feel that the lo-| Cation of the proposed perinanent,| airport mear Arlington Cemetery would cause concentration of alr, traffic at that point and thus serve to multiply and intensify the annoy-| ances necessarily resulting from the) noise and confusion of cuch traffic. They also felt that it was the primary duty of all veterans of the armed forces of the United States to guard and preserve the sacredness of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and | the grounds dedicated as the final | resting place of veterans from every State in the Union. To this end a resolution was unani- | mously adopted protesting against | the location of any permanent air- port in the vicinity of the cemetery and also urging the abandonment with all practicable speed of the landing fields now maintained in that vicinity. The resolution has been forwarded by Department Adjutant Howard S. Fisk to the national head- quarters of the American Legion in Indianapolis, requesting similar ac- tion as that taken by the local de-| partment, and National Executive Committeeman Paul J: McGahan was instructed at the coming meeting of the national executive committee to present the matter to that body for action. In the meantime the resolu- tion Was sent to committees of Con- gress and last week the protest of the loca] department was embodied in the records at the hearing held by the congressional comnmaittee in this connection. The resignation of “Department Commander L. E. Atkins, effective May 15, came as a surprise to some of the members of the executive com- mittee, when it was read to the executive committee by the depart- ment adjutant. The resignation was accepted with regret by the legion- Naires and as an expression of the esteem in which he was held a fare- well dinner is now being arranged for May 15 at Villa Roma, where those with whom he has been associated during his term of office will pay tribute to him on this occasion.

In general, the pattern of Ket resembled Friday's. heavy liquidation at blocks of 5,000 resenting a.large bundle of overnight Selling orders. A ghost of a rally ap- peared after the first outburst had been assimilated. but then the ket staggered downward. under Yurden of another load of last nute Bales.

The character of the selling wise differed little from yesterday's It was a yepetition of the story of weakened margin accounts, ent short selling by powerful ators and liquidation by Boldings of stocks have been moderately diminished since Market. reached its in April.

Index Loses 5.8 Potnts., So much action was crowded into the short space of two hours that the movement seemed at times to be assuming more sybstantial portions than it actually The price index for 90 5.8 points, exactly the extent of the Friday loss, and the groups—rails, industrials ties—recorded changes Proximating those of Session. As is y attained stocks lost and cloesly the usual during violent ments in either direction, ket. was filled with rumors nent professional operators Promi- ingly bearish. Some _ circles the market's action, pointing out that the decline reached violence immediately after President Hoover's statement on business. Whatever the immediate impetus to the break, it was generally agreed that the basic cause was the realiza- tion that speculative activity earlier in the year had been following a will-o'-the-wisp, taking broad liber- ties with the recuperative powers of commerce and industry. First quar- ter earnings statements, particular- ly those of the railroad companies, falled to support excessive optimism and the bullish estimates heard in February had to be revised to con- form with the cold figures of April. No Lack of Buyers. Although the volume of selling was reminiscent of the memorable days last fall. brokerage houses reported stocks were well taken on a scale down and that at no time was there any suggestion of the lack of buyers that accelerated the October-Novem- ber collapse. Many high grade investment shares were hard hit. United States Steel, General Electric, American Telephone, Standard Oil of New Jersey. Eastman Kodak and Detroit Edison, among others, lost from 5 to 6 points, while Westinghouse tumbled 13% under the pressure of the late selling. The day's largest net loss was in Auburn Auto, off 17%. Vanadium Steel dropped 16%, Radio and J. I. Case, 15; Columbia. Gas & Electric, 5; Para- mount, 8; Dupont, 5; Public Service of New Jersey, 6'2, and Standard Gas & Electric, 7. Oil, motor and rail stocks, which had already been substantially de- flated, displayed moderate firmness and a& vew carrier company shares showed small net gains for the day. There was another decline in com- modity prices, featured by a drop of 1 to 1!'5 cents in wheat on bearish weather reports. Cotton slumped 75 cents to $1 a bale. Foreign exchanges were dull, the French franc easy. CHICAGO GRAIN. May 3 (A.P ~Despite livelg Ss. wheat today followed the down hill, overwhelmed at last by heavy selling orders that came rushing from Eastern sources.

New York, May 3 (A.P.).—Cotton was today under week-end ‘liquidation combined with some Southern and local reports of continued favorable for the coming crop. relatively easy Liverpool cables and the weakness in the stock market. ane the new October contract to general market closed barely steady at net declines of 15 to 20 points. The opening was steady at an advance of 2 points to a decline of 5 points. There was some covering, but it was readily sup- plied by selling on the easier showing of Liverpool and the favorable view of the weather map. Prices soon turned easier, and the market warked slowly lower. De- mend for old-crop positions was much less active than yesterday, particularly in May, while a larger proportion of the business was in the new-crop months. There were buying orders for May at 12 points under July. which atabened the difference at about that figure. but July was sold a lit- more freely, and the price eased to 16.28. or 22 points net lower. The new October declined from 14.60 to 14.39, or 18 points below yesterday's closing quota- tion. and last prices were within a point or two of the lowest on most months. May finished 178 points over the new Oc- 18} points at the smaller old-crop sasitien. more nartiquintly in May, was regarded as an indication that the scattering interest had been materially re- duced and that traders’ attention was turning to the new-crop situation. The weather news y considered favorable. Further rain was reported in the South- west, and the more favorable view of the crop outlook was encouraged by reports of scattered Southern selling. partly from Memphis. Week-end reviews of the do- mestic goods market attracted no special comment. Tidereoet cablé&s said trade calling and covering had absorbed scattering liquida- tion upon the decline there, but reported depression in Manchester owing to a lim- ited business in cotton cloths and .yarns and said some looms were stopping. The emount of cotton on shipboard at United States ports at the end of the week was estimated at 92,000 bales, against 90.000 last vear. Putures: High. Low.

MAY 4, 1980. ee _——_—_— a re ne Se neem ee ee re ee Pa lay Houses MOVIE VS. LEGIT—~SUMMER VS. HWVINTER—BARNUMISM VS. FACT By NELSON B. BELL ¥ the Washington season of Metropolitan Grand Opera had not , been presented in the Fox Theater, it would have been: put on Psy at Poli’s. It has occurred to me many times during the last ten days that it must be a source of negligible satisfaction to the powers who rule the destinies of the traditional theater in the National Capital that they were unable to afford adequate housing for even SO - brief & season of the highest form of musical expression the theater can boast. As it happens, I attended the Bori-Tibbett-Tokatyan matinee per- formance of “La Traviata’ at the Fox a week ago Friday, and the next afternoon stood vigil over the last dying gasps of George White’ s “Scandals of 1929” at Poli’s. The contrast was vivid. In the former one found himself in an atmosphere of beauty and substantial richness; in an auditorium of vast dimensions and huge capacity, yet one lent a gracious warmth by the mellow blending of soft tones on every side, an admirable arrangement, perfect comfort art! - “magnificent lighting. A grand opera house in every sense of the-word. On Saturday, I wondered as I looked back from a vantage point in. ‘the third row over the vacuous reaches of Poli’s Here was a cutaneous, gaudy and amusing gaucherie with still some signs of lite” visible, although in its next to last performance, insuperably handicapped by the chill desolation of its environment. And let me hasten to add that I make this comment now, con- siderably after my first inclination I will admit, only because Poli’s neams its end and will be razed in July to make way for a legendary foifntain of my office mate, Mr. Daly’s impromptu creation for the dubfous delectation of his critical confreres on a certain recent oc- casion. For those in immediate charge of the house I entertain only feelings of warm regard and deep gratitude for many thought- ful courtesies. Particularly Mr. Bonneville and Mr. Taylor. But I am frequently asked why the picturé. houses should be so progperous while the. so-called “‘legitimate’’ theaters are forced to undergo such a colossal struggle for their very existence. My con- tention has ever been, and still is, that the old, dingy, hopelessly antiquated playhouses of a former era, charging from five to ten times the admission scales, ought not to expect to compete success- fujly with the modern palaces of the cinema, quantity and quality of entertainment both considered. ‘ft would seem to be answer enough that the Metropolitan Grand Opara Company had to be put on in a movie house to be done justice! . * ° * F course, another aspect of the case, that works wholly to the is* () advantage of the motion picture, is that gelatine drama knows n2 season. The movie season, all other things being equal, is no less tham.52 weeks in length, unless the individual management in some given instance arbitrarily determines that it shall be. The perfection of the modern cooling, ventilating and refrigera- tion systems, which in themselves frequently cost more to install than used to be expended for the erection of a theater, have even elemrinated seasonal differences in house temperatures and so have effectively dispelled the bugbear of the summer slump, formerly the bane of every exhibitor of the celluloids this side of the Arctic Circle. This, in turn, has practically done away with the once prevalent custom of playing all the good pictures in the winter and all of the mediocre, poor and abominable ones during the heated term. Since in the modern picture house there can be no “heated term,” the mid- sifyemer amusement fare is as much to be desired as the midwinter. If et summer had not proved it, this summer would. Last Thursday’s daily ‘“‘Behind the Screens’’ column, parented by this* department, went at some length into the superiorities of the magic lantern shows on their way to the Fox Theater as summer comes upon us. The list was a formidable one, but no more formid- alte than might be mustered nid any of the other downtown, first- ridr.interests. } “Wurst National, Warner Brothers and a split of the Paramount product assure the Metropolitan and Earle Theaters a uniform supply of ‘attractions of the first rank. Some of them are almost here, notably “The Vagabond King,” “‘The Song os the Flame’ and John Barry- méte in ‘The Man From Blankley’s.’ United Artists, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and a division of Paramount insure the same steady supply of superior aypeagss to the Loew houses, the-Palace and Columbia. Norma Talmadge in ‘“‘Flame of the Flesh,” Royald Colman in ‘Raffles,’ Eddie Cantor in “W hoopee,” “The High Road, ’*’ “Madam Satan” and ‘Romance’ may he heralded among these. “Inder the new Universal policy, which is an exact reversal of that which it has always heretofore pursued, of high negative costs and nothing but special productions—instead of low negative costs and chgap productions—the Rialto’s outlook is the most promising it has been at any time since the original opening of the house in 1918. The prospect of enjoying such réleases as ae Quiet on the Western Frant, * “Barbary Coast,’ “Ladies in Love’ and others to come, heightened by the vast improvement that has been made in the sound repyoduction and the efficient overhauling of a cooling system that is wii}-really cool. The same holds good at RKO-Keith’s. in-operation here, too, by the time the weather am being given a delightful ride on a merry-go-round that isn't going anywhere. Such pictures as ‘‘Companianata,” ‘Dixiana,” ‘“Upper- world” and the ‘‘Radio Revels,” according to every reliable forecast, may be depended upon to fortify Radio-Keith-Orpheum’s quickly won position among the foremost producer-exhibitor organizations in the A A refrigeration plant will be justifies it, unless I country. | So far. the industry has at no point betrayed my incorrigible opti- mism—nor will it this summer. Watch. * = * ~ PEAKING of RKO reminds me of “Ingagi’’—which I find is pro- , nounced preciseiy as it is spelled, ‘‘In-gag-ee,’’ with the accent on? the ‘second syllable—the symposium of monkeyshines currently occupying the screen at the Fifteenth street Keith house, where it entered its second capacity week yesterday. Bere is one of the showmanship freaks of our times! A picture that is so defective photographically as to command no better than the lowest rating; miserably synchronized with what sounds like a street hand-organ accompaniment—possibly re there are 80 many monkeys in the picture—as to be a plague of the ear, yet em- bodying a climacteric idea that will pique the curiosity of any com- munity and pack large theaters for indefinite periods. ‘Among its additional assets are a running account of the incidents depicted by a clever and -well recorded guide and occasional sound effgcts that add appreciably to the realism of scenes that are more than ordinarily thrilling. “Still, if you have a good memory and can recall certain episodes in “the Water Hole,”’ ‘The Gorilla Hunt” and other authentic camera récords of Waseréous jungle adventures in the heart of the African wilds, there will be many scenes that will greet the eye as old friends. sNevertheless, when this strictly Barnum feature reaches the clos- ing-sequences, when it seems to be made plain that women, sacrificed by their. tribe after weird and violent ceremonials, actually are living in’the brush with giant gorillas in an apparent state of safety and con- tentment, there is produced.an effect that is as bizarre as it is star- tlinig. The fact that the long-shots are genuine and the close-ups faked, strangely enough robs the flamboyant situation of surprisingly lit- t e. of its melodramatic tang and novelty. eo here has been an especially deft bit of film cutting here, whereby atigal scenes of ‘‘The Gorilla Hunt” and those made with the dis- a human actor on the outskirts of Hollywood are so cunningly rnated as to result in an almost perfect deception. “The entire episode is a deception, as a matter of fact, for science talts us that while the ourang-oulang sometimes indulges ‘in such . the gorilla, a nonsensual SO beast, experiences no such inclinations. uf a zoological exhibit, the picture is a masterpiece, probably dis- closing intimate studies bf a greater number and greater variety of beasts, birds and reptiles than any Other film ever réleased.

JAZZ KING IN ‘KING OF JAZZ’ HERE AT LAST Continuing its policy of big pic- tures, the Rialto Theater at Ninth and G streets is this week offering the much-talked-about Paul Whiteman production, “The King of Jazz,” di- rected by John Murray Anderson. This is authoritatively said to be the most elaborate and most expensive spec- tacle ever made in Hollywood. From all reports the expense was justified. Critics rate “King of Jazz’ as one of eee pictures ever made. ing of Jazz” is an imaginative creation all in color with many fam- ous stars of the stage and screen in addition to Mr. Whiteman and his band. Anderson has directed more than 300 elaborate stage creations and in this, his first picture, he has stepped to the very forefront of screen directors. This production is 100 per cent Technicolor. and Mr. Anderson has used the color for the first time to emphasize the tonal qualities of the music. The settings are all so elaborate and breath-tak- ing that it is difficult to say much about the production without break- ing out in a rash of double-jointed adjectives. There are many beautiful songs in this production, many of which will doubtless be immediate hits. Some of the sure fire ones are “Bench in the Park,” “My Bridal Veil,” “It Hap- pened in Monterey,” “Happy Feet,” “My Ragamuffin Romeo,” “Song of the Dawn,” “I Like to Do Things for You,” “Music Has Charm” and “My Lover.” Stars in the spectacle are Jeanette Loff, John Boles, Stanley Smith, Billie Kent, Merna Kennedy, Grace Hayes, Kathryn Crawford, the Sisters G, Al Norman, Charles Irwin, Brox Sisters, Jeanie Lang, the Rhythm Boys, Paul Howard, George Chiles, Frank Leslie, Jacques Cartier. Nell O’Day, the Rus- sell Market Dancers and George Gershwin. The production is prefaced by the first animated cartoon in colors. This depicts in delicious comedy, a humor- ist’s idea of how jazz music really originated. A special Mother's Day | featurette and the Universal Newsreel, with Graham McNamee broadcasting the events, complete the Rialto’s pro- gram. FILMED NOVEL REPLETE WITH BRISK ACTION Packed with thrills from’ first to last and given a directoria) and photographic. treatment that brings out its entertainment qualities to the utmost, “Temple Tower,” which is now at the Fox Theater, introduces to screen fangs something new in the wey of film fare. The novel by H. C. McNelle is the latest and most successful of his series on “Bulldog Drummond,” and with Kenneth MacKenna in the role of the intrepid ex-officer, Director Donald Gallaher has produced a gripping and faithful all-talking Fox Movietone version of the original story. “Temple Tower” hes as its theme the theft of a priceless jewel collec- tion and the resultant double-cross- ing of two of the crooks by the other two, Blackton and his giant accom- Plice, Gaspard, who take the emer- alds and hide from the wrath of the other couple behind the strongly guarded walls of Temple Tower, 4 gloomy mansion.

EXPLAINS HOW SHE MAKES ’EM Norma Shearer is one motion pie- - ture star who attends strictly to her own business, and since her pusifiéss | is being a motion picture star she gives it her undivided attention. “The time I spend before the cam- era is about one-third of the actual time I devote to my motion picture work,” she said recently. “There is Ss0 much to be done to prepare for a picture and then so many things to be done when the picture is fihished that the time actually. spent on the set dwindles considerably. “Before we start on a picture, I make voice and photographic tests with every principal in the cast. Then there are innumerable costume tests, story discussions and rehearsals. After the picture is over I usually find ‘a great amount of correspondence that has piled up, demanding persona] at- tention. All of this is part of the work of being a motion picture star and can not be neglected.” Miss Shearer’s new Metro-Goldwyn- Mayer talking picture, “The Divorcee,” is now playing at Loew’s Columbia. It is an adaptation of a story: by Ursula Parrott and was directed by Robert Z. Leonard. Chester Morris plays opposite Miss Shearer, and the supporting cast in- cludes Robert Montgomery, Conrad Nagle, Zelda Sears, Tyler Brooke, Mary Doran and Florence Eldridge. The Hearst Metrotone News, short subjects and the Columbia Orchestra, under the direction of Claude Bur- rows. complete the bill. BEST SELLER FILMED WITH ACE PLAYERS At last Zane Grey’s thrilling char- acters step from the pages of his popular novels onto the screen—and |. talk. Paramount has made the long. awaited entertainment treat a real- ity and Grey’s won tale of out- lawry on the Western frontier, “The Light of Western Stars" is now play- ing at Warner’s Earle Theater. “The Light of Western Stars” is like @ page torn from the gripping life story of the West, It pictures, in scene and dialogue, the last desper- ate stand of banded lawlessness on the American frontier. Otto Brown- er, maker of two great silent West- erns, “Sunset Pass” and “Avalanche,” and himself a product of the cattle ranges and plains country, directed this picture. “The Light of Western Stars” brings Richard Arlen forward im his second Western role. Again, as in “The Virginian,” he is at great ad- vantage in this action drama of the outdoors. And Mary Brian, the lead- ing lady of “The Virginian,’ " seen recently opposite Arlen in “Burning Up,” is the sweetheart, This first Zane Grey thriller to be filmed with dialogue has an unusually strong supporting cast, including Harry Green, funny man of “Close Harmony” and “Kibitzer’; Pred Koh- ler, seen opposite George Bancroft in many of that star’s great hits; Regis Tommey, of “Alibi” and “Street of Chance” fame, and many others. Arlen plays the part of Dick Bailey, battling man of the . West, who seeks to capture the. heart of Mary Brian with cave-man tactics and meets with a romantic . Then he changes his tactics, with more SUCCESS. The Story is filled -with- adventure and danger, and lar scenes, familiar in the West a few years ago, are daringly filmed.

He also signed Rudolph Friml to do an original musical score and brought Primi to Hollywood. LIFE OF A A GLIMPSE AT THE PRIVATE PUBLIC FIGURE HE trouble with being a great comédian is that people will laugh at you even when you try to be serious. ‘Ask Charlie Chaplin. Chaplin, on s rustic vacation with Douglas Fairbanks, décided to grow a little mustache, the-first he had ever attempted “in his life. He thought that, as a companion piece for his it would en- hance his now distinguished off- screen appearance, But when he re- turned to the studio his entire staff took one look, thought of the comedy mustache he has made world famous, grabbed its collective diaphragm and howled with laughter. “Hée got mad and shaved it off at once,” says Harry Lang, friend of the comedian, who revéals Chaplfm’s most intimate trials and idiosyncrasies in a character sketch written for the cur- rent Photoplay Magazine. Chaplin has yet to sit through his first talking picture. He insists they are far inferior to the silent ones and declares he will never make one, says Lang, Funny as he is on the screen, the one spot where the public will never see h his bedroom. So says Lang. “He wears very loud pajamas and locks ‘himself in. He locks every door, even that to his private bathroom. He will not unlock one of these doors until morning—but he keeps’his win- dows open,” relates his friend. ' Chaplin did not go to school, the writer notes, but he has a libra of 3,000 volumes, and he has r them all. “He teads the Bible and likes but has no religious faith of own,” says Lang. it, his WINNIE WINS CONTRACT, ON THREE FILMS After spending her annual vacation tm New York, Wifinie Lightner left recently for California to make her next Vitaphone picture for Warner Brothers. She got away just in time. to escape the interviewers, who were. eager to talk to her after the success of the New York premiere Of “Hold Everything.” the hilarious comedy which is now playing at Warner’s Metropolitan. Before stepping aboard the Twen- tieth Century, however, Winnie told the interviewer a few reactions of a talkie comedienne who hasn’t quite yet recovered from the fame that came to her overnight with the release of “Gold Diggers of Broadway.” “It’s Irigh luck,” the actress as- serted, “to have a long-term contract after thrée pictures—“Gold Diggers of Broadway,” “She Couldn’t Say No” and “Hold Everything.” Luck has been with me all the way. Luck got me my biggest laughin “Gold Diggers That was when I acci- dentally fell off the supper table on to poor Albert Gran and the camera caught it. That little mishap turned Out to be a blessing, and now I’m definitely in the rouglh-stuff category and I take a lot of falls in “Hold Everything” in my gentle love scenes with Joe E. Brown, who used to be an acrobat himself. “T’ll miss New York, but Hollywood is a great place. Extras get $7 a day there for doing nothing but sitting around the set waiting for something to happen. The theater was never like that! “Did you ask me if I had a hobby? Sure! And it’s not art or books. It’s going to zoos.

DALY= UST when it looked as if Mr. Stephen E. Cochran’s company, tlie National Theater Players, would have the field to themselves, Polis Theater booked in a revival of the peren#fal play, “Abie’s Irish Rose.”’ So, this week, there are two plays for theater- goéers—‘‘Wooden Kimono” and “Abie.” Incidentally, there is great concern in some quarters over the sub- acription plan now in vogue at the National. This marks the be- inning of the sixth-week for the players. The idea is to continue, cer- Inly with four more’ plays as originally planned. .Now, a lot of pady letter writers “have besieged this’ department for in- ormation, asking if the subscription season at the National is to “be extended. Thé answer lies with the management, As it has been impossible to corner this busy gentleman and sound him out, these ' ‘missives must be held in abeyance. '. . From the tone of all the letters received here it seems that the ‘Naflional Theater Players have clicked; that this is the best com- pany, taking it by and'large, that ever played under the old banner; that the leading man, Walter,Gilbert, is a smash hit with the fair young debs and subtebs; that Miss Marion Wells, the leading lady, ‘4s quite the popular miss with the, young gentlemen who have an . eye for fair femininity—as who hasn’t—and that the character men and women with the company—Romaine Callender, Addie Hibbard, Marion Sterly, Dudley Hawley, Forest Orr, et al.—-are just about what the doctor ordered, _ ‘Well, there’s a lot of truth in all these statements, Certainly, so far as balance goes, the National Theater Players may be com- pared favorably with some Of the best stock companies Washington ever harbored—and Washington is a city famous for its repertoire. As far back as the days of Augustin Daly, who was doing for New York what Mr.*€ochran is doing for Washington, the Nation’s Capi- tal has been strong for resident companies. . One of the fine points about the National Theater Players is the type of play presented—good, clean, wholesome comedy, farce and straight drama, Some of these plays have been seen here for the first time in the hands of the Players, the road companies having neglected to visit our town. So, whatever the decision of the man- ‘ agement, the regular patrons of the National Theater Players, the people who bought their ten week’s theater entertainment in advance, haye had their money’s worth. The letter writers say as much. What they want to know is: Will it continue the balance of the sum- mer on the subscription plan? Off-hand, I should hesitate to formulate an answer. like the old saying, “Too good to last!” brought to the attention of the management. It might be Perhaps this will be If ‘so, let him step to the rostrum with an official announcement—for the boys and girls ate getting anxious.

Mr: Schloss-has been doing this sort of thing for the past 20 years—opening. Glen Echo Park. For 20 years or so he has been inviting the local dramatic scribes out his: way, to have communion with nature and the like, andeto make merry-on the green sward. Right here in this old desk there is an annual pass for Glen Echo, a pass bearing the signature of Mr. Schloss. More, there is a writ- ten invitatién to be present on the opening day, and a written order calling’ for certain repasts should -thé department show up. Some day Mr. Schloss will be called upon to deliver, In the mean- time, Mr. Ernest Johnston, the enthusiastic booster for Glen Echo, calls attention to this remarkable achievement of an ‘amusement park manager—20 years at the same job and living to tell the tale. -Of Mr. Schloss he writes: “Leonard Benjamin Schloss, who has had an interesting and color- ful career tn the amusement field, Born in Détroit, Mich., in 1872, of California pioneers, Glen Echo. prior to taking. over the reins at he attended public and private schools in San Francisco, and the California Military Academy, Oakland. Mr. Schloss’ first job in the amusement business was as usher at the Bush Street Theater, San Francisco, then the leading theater im that city. Successive promo- tions led to a chance on the road in the capacity of press representa- tive and business agent, at one time being with an Uncle Tom show starring Peter Jackson, the pugilist. Mr. Schloss remained with the owner, the late Charles B. Davies, in the capacity of confidant in aa connection with the handling of the string of boxers then under his control, some being Tommy Ryan, The famous John L. Sullivan made his farewell tour under others. Joe Choynski, Jimmy Barry and the management of Mr*Davies, while Schloss acted as business man- ager. The well-known amusement park manager started in the outdoor field with the American Globe Trotters, the opening stand being Cape Town, South Africa. | Returning to America in 1903, Mr. Schloss assisted in the building of Dreamland, Coney Island, and after other extensive experiences arrived in Washington in March, 1911, to take charge of Glen Echo, making the resort a successful and popular amusement park. Mr. Schipss is married, and has two children, a boy and a girl, the former a student’ at Syracuse Univer- sity, and the latter at Central High. “He is‘a thirty-second degree Mason, Shriner, Elk, member of the Grotto, Chamber of Commerce, City Club, Traffic Club, Washington safety council and o ther civic organizations of the National Capital, and a member of Woodmont Country Club. “Mr. Schloss is recognized. as one of the leading amusement park operators of t Association of Amusement, Parks, mittee, he country, and is sécond vice president of the National and chairman of its legislative com- music royalty committee and code of ethics committee.

Coming Attractions ing the 855th aniversary of the orig- inal production of Richard Brinsley Sheridan’s immortal comedy, “The Rivals,” is signalized by a revival of this eighteenth century classic, which comes to the National Theater next under the management .of A. L. Er- langer and George C. Tyler. A brilliant coterig of players have been combined for the presentation of the play, which is playing a flying tour following the New York engage- ment Mrs. Fiske heads the. cast as Mrs. Malaprop, with James T. Powers as the ludicrous Bob Acres, Pedro de Cordoba as Faulkland, Rollo Peters as Capt. Jack Absolute, Andrew M&ck as John Craig as the choleric Sir An- thony, Margery Maude as the senti- mental Lydia Languish, Georgette Cohan, George Tawda and Betty Linley, Of the scores of eightenth century comedies of manners that were pop- ular in that time, only three have survived to this day for major pro- ductions along with Shakespeare's plays. These are :‘The Rivals” and “School for Scandal,” by Sheridan, and “She Stoops to Conquer” by Oli- ver Goldsmith. Ever since it was re- vealed at Covent Garden, London, in 1775, until the present time, “The Rivals” has held first plate among these three in popular favor because its characters and its humor are ever green and, save on the technical side, it is as wp to date as it was in. the time of Garrick. Reference to the names in the cur- rent revival will disclose that several were in the notable cast which toured the United States and Canada some five years ago. That memorable tour covered large and smal cities through- out the northern continent over a period of 70 weeks. Harrison Grey Fiske has staged the present production. 3 Two names to conjure with in the consideration of fine entertainment are those of John Golden, producer, and Frank Craven, actor-aythor. This pair is responsible for “Salt Water,” which the National Players will do for the week beginning May 12. This Will be the fifth®play offered by the players for the first time in Wash- ington. The principal characters in “Salt ‘Weter” are John and Pansy Horner, a youthful pair dwelling in a Snag Harbor cottage bequeathed John by his father. John is the last of a long line of hardy seamen and all his life he has wanted to carry on the Horner traditions on the briny deep. Picture his dismay when the best he can do is to become a butcher boy on an Albany boat.

Originality in scenery and lighting effects will be featured. Impelling Beauty. The secret of the success gf the ex- hibition of the painting, Nana, is the fact that the same visitors go many times to view it. The management says that jt ig nothing unusual to - .2 visitcrs say, “This is the fifth time I have been to see this painting Since it has been, here.” Nana is a specimen of the rarest feminin beauty, painted with striking fidelity to nature, the limbs beautifully molded and rounded, the carnations of the flesh exquisite, and the whole fer~ instinct with life and flow of health. Not’alone in the figure’ does the artist excel, but. the accessories are so beA@utiful. The draperies, the trinkets, the massive candelabra, and indeed, all the details of the picture will repay long examination. There is nothing in “Nana” to offend the most delicate tastes, and the superb genius of the artist has cre- ated a radiant, living type of woman- hood. The laughing face and those marvelous eyes—eyes which dance and glisten with real animation— and the rich flow of golden silky hair will long dwell in the memory.

The piece is of that pattern where every character is be- lieved guilty until proved otherwise and not the least of the audience's enjoyment comes from making de- ductions as to just who did what. Mystery plays are the hardest form of theatrical entertainment to devise Aas every motive must be doubly checked and the spectator’s atten- tion, while riveted on one set of characters, must be gently diverted to another without his feeling that the author is imposing on him. John Floyd has encompassed a masterly piece of mystery writing in this vehicle and, while he has con- trived a number of grisly sequences, he has not been forgetful of the first function of any play, which is to en- tertain. Thus, while maintaining suspense and puzzlement he has in- jected enough broad humor to make the piece almost farcical. He has gone even further by intriguing the patron into matching his wits against the solution And be it said that the utmost in futility is trying to guess the identity of the culprit in “Wood- en Kimono.” Less Burlesque. It has been definitely decided to limit the number pf Mutual bur- lesque shows to 40 for the comin season, instead of the customary 50. This will require the employment of more than 1,800 people. Rehearsals will begin July 28, and the season will start Monday, September 1. The free school of stage dancing, which has been conducted by the Mutual Burlesque Association every summer for several years, will be re- sumed July 1 at the Mutual’s head- quarters in New York: Every theater on the Mutual circuit will be thoroughly renovated during the summer at an approximately gross Outlay of $50,000. The ingenious routing of the 40 Mutual burlesque shows for the com- ing season will limit the average weekly “jumps” to less than 100 miles for each company, Senatorial Seat? One of the first mail orders received for “The Rivals,” which books into the National for one performance, Sunday night, May 11, was from Mrs. Ruth Hanna McCormick, nominee from Chicago for the Senate. Her primary campaign, while arduous enough, was not too strenuous to divert her mind from the date of one of the séason’s foremost attractions. “ABIE’S IRISH ROSE” COMES BACK AGAIN An elaborate revival of a world- famous comedy will be the attraction at Poli’s Theater this week beginning tonight, when Anne Nichols famous vehicle of laughter, “Abie's Irish Rose,” will again provoke the cyclonic laughter which has driven countless millions of playgoers to a state of physical exhaustion from the attacks upon their risible emotions For this revival the management got in touch with all available mem- bera of Miss Nichols’ original New York company. Without an excep- tion every member at liberty signed contracts, and the line-up is as fol- lows: Alfred White, who for five and a half years played Solomon Levy at the Republic Theater, New York; Ida Kramer, who played as long a time in her old role of Mrs. Isaac Cohen; Harry Bradley as the priest, Father Whalen, and Jack Bertin as the Rabbi Jacob ‘Samuels. Both played these roles for over five and a half years wi the original company Harry Mark Stewart assumes the role of Isaac Cohen, which he played with the New York company and later was selected by Miss Nichols to play the same role in her London company. Charles W. Ritchie played in the orig- inal company for a time as Patrick Murphy. and was with the London company. William McFadden played Abie Levy with the long run com- panies in Chicago and Detroit. Kath- leen ™)binson the Rosemary Murphy of the Boston Company will be seen here. As for the story of the famous comedy, who doesn't récall the mar- riage of the Jewish youth, Abie Levy, with the Irish girl, Rosemary Murphy? (Also, the furious efforts of their fathers to prevent or an- nul the marriage, and failing that, the disowning of their children, the birth ‘of the young and devoted couple's first born, the creeping back of the fathers, unknown to eac other, to ~ee and present Christ gifts to this offspring, and the event- ual smooshing over of age-old antag- onisms, partly through the efforts of the priest and rabbi.

NEW FOLLIES _ AT GAYETY This week's attraction at Gayety Theater is described as a “wow” in the way of entertainment, and will probably live up to that description in the minds of the many,fans who journey to the Ninth s t theater in search of super de luxe entertain- ment. “Mutual Follies” is the attractive title, for this show which has more stars than a Broadway revue. These particular burlesque stars were gath- ered for this week’s show from other vehicles on the Mutual circuit, and represent the outstanding talent of the Mutual wheel. Most of these players will be ac- claimed for their past and present performances, including Hap Freyer, Charlie Goldie, Charles gobinson, Lew Petel, Harry Ryan, Loia Pierce, Babe Almond, Syd Burke, Charles Le Roy and Elsie Huff. The chorus is composed of 20 beau- ties who sing, dance, and act merry generally, adding much to the show. There aré any number of clever and laugh provoking situations designed to accentuate the particular talent of the gifted players. Much caré and thought has also been given to the scenery, lighting effects and cos- tumes. -_ RUTH ST. DENIS=.

Saturday—5 p. m., Epiphany Church, “Hour of Choral Music;” Washington Choral Festival Asso- ciation. By ELISABETH N. POE. LOSE upon the heels of the Easter festival of choral music comes one of the pleasantest periods of the music year in Wash- ington, the time when local artists and performers have their hour in the sunlight of popular applause From this time on to the vacation period, beginning in June, student recitals and concerts will be the chief musical events. There is every reason why local music lovers should patronize these events freely. For they affect the musical future of the city. Besides @ that, the students and teachers have worked hard to perfect these. pro- grams and they deserve the inspira- tion of large audiences. Washington’s contribution to the world of music in the past has not been inconsiderable and there “is every reason to believe the future likewise will be productive of mu- sical genius. ‘The cooperation of parents, teachers and the musical public, however, is necessary to bring this about. The Capital heard with regret of the death in London of Dame Emma Albani,-one of the memorable group of song birds contemporary with Adelina Patti, Christine Nilsson, Etel- ka, Gerster, Tamagno and Victor Maurel. Dame Albani, who had received that title for her achievements in the field of music, was an all-around musician, and in addition to a 6u- perb soprano voice she was an accom- plished harpist, organist and pianist. The Washington Festival Chorus, sponsored by the Washington Choral Festival Association, will offer “An Hour of Choral Music” in honor of National Music Week, on Saturday afternoon at 5 o’clock in Epiphany Episcopal Church, conducted by Dr. Prederick Alexander, outstanding choral director in this country and nationally known as the director of the Ypsilanti Normal Choir. .

She said she didn’t care then what kind of a part she was given nor what kind of a picture it was in, just so she could do something. Now, a star, Janet intimated that protecting herself against poor roles and avoiding what she thinks will be weak or un- uae, Successful stories, f. ishalf the strug- glee. She has found, like many others before her, that getting to the top isn't nearly so difficult as staying there. “Sunny Side Up,” her last picture, was her first musical comedy and another she has just completed is somewhat similar. “I don’t believe anyone will ever go into a theater to hear me sing or se@ me dance,” she said. “There are s0 many girls who sing and dance so much better than I do that I think musical comedies should be left to them. “I don’t expect to keep on doing song-and-dance roles’ successfully, And if I don’t do well, the past good things I’ye done will be forgotten.” Janet Gaynor What Has Happened. A state of mind similar to Miss Gaynor’s, plus a sizable bank roll, has led several stars to become their own producers and directors, there- by giving them the right to cnouse their own parts and stories. Most actors who embarked on such daring ventures met with failure Charles Ray was one; Johnny Hines, Mioyd Hamilton, Harry Langdon, Buck Jones and Stan Laure] (of pres- ent baurel and Hardy fame) were others who took financial] nose dives. One of the reasons William S. Hart isn’t on the screen, his friends say, is because he demands story and di- rectorial supervision. Raymond Grif- fith is another in the same class, There Are Exceptions. Even Glori Swanson made several unsuccessful pictures after she start- ed independent production. In the last. few years, however, she has been quite successful. e notable exceptions to the actor-producer failure rule are Chap- lin, Fairbanks, Lloyd, Keaton and Mary Pickford. Why, Paul! Paul Whiteman, sighting a huge egg-shaped gas tank, thought up this simile: “It looks like Sophie Tucker standing on her head.” Cast Complete. The completed cast of “The Unholy Three,” which will be Lon Chaney’s first dialogue vehicle, includes Lila Lee, Ivan Linow, Harry Earles and Elliott Nugent.

AFRICAN FILM CONTINUES TO PACK KEITH'S The management of RKO-Keith’s, having been umable to accommodate the overflow crowds desiring to wit- neas the showing of “Ingagi,” are holding it over for a second week. @The most startling feature ‘depicted \in this picture sponsored by Congo | Pictures, Ltd., is the discovery of what i\may easily be creatures that are half human, half ape. Apparently also there is a tribe of natives lowest of all in the scale of humanity, scarce- ly as intelligent as the apes, who each year after an elaborate celebration which is hideously weird, give one of the women to the gorillas. That these women are taken as companions by the great apes is claimed and some of the pictorial evidence in “Ingagi,” which means “Gorilla,” seems to bear out this belief. In other respects, “Ingagi’” indl- cates clearly that.the expedition had more than the usual share of ad- venture with wild animals, Despite the fact that the wild life in Africa is said to be rapidly disappearing, there seemed no dearth of it so far as the Winstead-Swayne safari was con- cerned, They had encounters with ele- phants, rhinos, leopards and lions and among other things caught an im- mense python measuring 65 feet in length.

MAY 15—4:30 a FIFTY FUNNY FACTS ABOUT FILMING “SONG OF FLAME” v ONG OF THE FLAME,” Pirst S National's all-Vitaphonée and all-Technicolor spectacular film, with its Russian ‘revolutionary background, thousands of extras and massive sets, abounds with material for statistics. Some of them are entertaining. For instance: - Three and a half miles of crepe hair of ordinary beard thickfiess was used for the beards of the 4.300 arti- ficially bearded extras who partici- pated in the film. Nearly 500 putty cheek-bones were put on by makeup men to make the well-known broad, flat, high-cheek- boned Russian face on non-Russian extras. They called that “having your cheekbones lifted.” In scenes of the outbreak of the Russian revolution in Moscow and Petrograd, mekeup men used approxi- mately 50 buckets of “blood.” The longest natural beard among the rea] Russians in the picture is Sergi Grabbe’s. It measures 2% feet. It is brown and luxurious. Technical, Director Nicholas Kob- liansky says Russians wear oveards more frequently than any other great mation because no other nation has such severe weather. Beards in Russian, in other words, are truly “muffs.” They keep the face from freezing and cracking. Women wear masks marten and otter fur. Russian peas- ant women wear an average of 23 underskirts. But under these under- skirts are no bloomers or stepins. Reg- ular underwear is unknown, Only a few layers of clothing are removed during winter weather, on going to bed. If the weather is exceedingly cold, more layers are added, Clothing of soft woven paper ranks with wool and fur as the most popular garment material, Russia made of wolf, peasants are very clean and take ma baths—during the three months of summer weather. During the winter they rarely take a bath, preferring to use oil and a cloth on one emall section of the body at a time. The oil helps keep them warm and also serves as @ cleansing agent. Russians ~~ now given to taking trips, but in the czar’s regime most peasants and smal] towners never left their particular neighborhood. Wan- dering was not encouraged; only gyp- sies did it. The average rustic Slav saw only one village all his life, and never got farther than 30 miles away from it in any direction, Kobliansky declares that a village of 5,000 persons was found before the revolution to have kept to this 30- mile radius throyghout twelve gener- ations. Only the czar’s soldiers and tax officials, not natives of the town, had traveled. During the Russian revolution vodka sold at the equivalent of 6 cents a bottle, but a loaf of biack rye bread cost nearly a dollar! The Russian soldiers in the World War and both Czarists and Commun- ists during the revolt used firearms ranging from the most modern kinds back to the flintlock with which J. Fenimore Cooper’s Leatherstocking killed Injuns, A Russian, or any member of the vast nation’s heterogeneous races from the Behring to the North Ser will starve for bread rather than go with- out tea. “Russians” are in the minority in the Russian possessions. Fifty-two separate nationalities, including rea* Slavs, Cossacks, Tartars, Mongols, Turcos, Eskimos and many other wide- ly differing classes of men inhabit the vast domain. WARNER BROS.

The Russian exile in America is inveriably prosperous. but he can not resist the lure of the films. That is why there is a colony of nearly 10,000 of them in Los An- geles The proprietor of the Double Eagle Cafes of. Los Angeles, a reputed mil- lionaire named Lodijenski. was gied to work for a month in “Song of the Flame,” neglecting his business for a $10 a day extra job. Only part of the Russians in “Song of the Flame” are political exiles Nearly 1,000 of them, used at one time, were recruited from a fishing village. These came to America by way of Siberia, the Behring Straits, Alaska and Canada, ly speak- ing, the rea] exiled aristocrats in the picture found themselves playing tocrats; the peasants oon ge peasants However, when the Soviet victory was filmed, and in al] subsequent scenes, nonéristocrats were of course domin- ant. ineidesieiity, the nonaristocrats often rated the highest pay at the movie studio, ° Director Alan Crosland has all his orders repeated on the same ioud- Speaking system in Russian, since many of the extras could not under- stand rapidly spoken English. Among non-Russians appearing in “Song of the Flame” were a total] of 84 other nationals. Jews, Irish, Amer- icans and Mexicang predominated in the order named. The Jews present spoke twelve languages and about nineteen dialects, Gypsies of all na- tions were prominent in “Song of the Flame.” One of the seventeen separate groups of specialty dancers took twelve falls on a cement sidewalk within a single hour. . Among the animals and birds used in the picture were horses, dogs, wolves, jackals, doves, pigeons, geese. Swans, cows, sheep, ducks, chickens, cats, pigs, goats, oxen, mules, donkeys and reindeer, The great ensemble, chorus of the picture was once heard at a distance of two miles airline from the studio, singing “Song of the Flame,” (Oh, Mr. Hix!) Alexander Gray and Bernice Claire, leads in the picture, were taught to kiss in Russian fashion. It can’t be explained without seeing. Noah Beery, the villain of the piece, dies for the 489th time in g motion picture, by his 34th method of violent death.

HYGIENE FILM ANOTHER WEEK FOR MEN ONLY} “Damaged Souls” is being held over at the Little Theater for men only. Owing to the tremendous demand the menagement has decided to con- tinue “Damaged Souls” for another week's showing exclusively for men. On account of the smallness of the theater it hag been necessary to run continuous daily presentations from 11 a. m. to 11 p. m. and, at that, thousands of men have been turned away each day. The reason for the considerable at- tention attracted by this picture must , be due to the frank manner in which it deals with the matter of personal hygiene. The feature is a bold pre- sentation of the traffic in souls, There are four reels exhibited to male audiences which in themselves contain a life-time of education por- trayed in an hour.

ANO DBROGRAMS OF INTEREST TO.RADIO ENTH USIASTS ° ee ee I A A AO ly le. te te I ET A ER NT EE a ER TT A a RADIO SETS IN CARS BECOMING POPULAR tallation Called. Simple. and Unexpensive by | Technicians. )FTEN DONE IN FACTORY With the popular interest in the automobile radio ‘rapidly growing, someé of the questions that excite the curlosity of most automobile owners are, How is the receiving set installed; where does it go, and what is the cost? The cost of installation is not ex-|. pensive: In fact the price of the set and the cost of installing it are witHin the reach of practically every tomobile owner. While the task Is ot difficult, the work should be done by @ mechanic who knows something about automobiles as well as radio. In installing an automobile radio one usually begins with the antenna Or serial. This is an arrangement of wire or screen in the roof of the car and is necessary for intercepting the radio messages. A number of Cars mS now equipped with aerials at the actory. Equipment for Clesed Cars, Of closed cara not so equipped, quite a number are constructed with the roof covering supported on wire chicken netting, Uniess this chicken netting is connected to the metal body or frame ef the car it may, be used as the antenna. An_ insulated wire is sdldered to the chicken net- ting at the right-hand front corner and carried down inside or by the right-hand windshield post to the re- ceiver beneath the cowl. If no aerial has been installed at the factory, or if the roof is not sup- ported by chicken wire, a smell wire or screen alftenna may be used. In closed cars this can consist of @ sec- tion of copper screen (the kind used for screening a house) tacked to the toof bows inside the roof, so that it is hidden by the cloth head lining. of screén to use va- ries with the car. The Crosley in- a uses a screen about 2 by 3 ect Installing an antenna in the roof of an open car presents a somewhat dif- ferent problem,. because the antenna must not interfere with the céllapsing of the roof. A flexible, insulated wire attached to a piece of drill cloth serves admirably for this purpose. The wire is run back and forth across se drill cloth in grid fashion. Bs lige is removed, and the drill stretched over a false head lining od tacked to the end bows. When ae top is replacea the antenna is tirely concealed. The lead-in wire * taken from back-ayd is run down underneath the chassis to the pcsition of the receiver in the front of the car. ’ No Universal Rule. There is no universal rule for the location of the speaker. Some in- Stallations are made with the speaker in the back of) the car; some with. it suspended from the roof bows just ebove the back of the driver's seat. In modern, low-built cars, however, 1: seems to be advisable to locate the receiver so that it is as inconspicnous |. and out of the way as possible. Automobile receivers are operated by batteries. The car storage battery is used for the “A” supply, but in ad; dition there must be dry batteries for the “B" and “C” supply. A battery box, sunk in the floor boards at the Tear of the car, is ordinarily used for carrying the batteries; although they are frequently packed below the driv- ers seat, in a rear compartment, or in some other out-of-the-way loca- tion. ' Tuning is accomplished from a panel easily attached to the instru- ment board. Volume’ may also oe regulated at will by turning a dial. The automatic volume control keeps the Om gan at a constant level while | the car is being driven from — to place Switch. of Lock Type. Radio manufacturers have found’}t “best to provide a witch of the lock type, operated by a key. This makes it impossible for the, receiver to be turned on by passerby when the car is parked. One of the most important factors which must be considered. in the in- atallation of automobile radios is the elimination of interference from the -ignition system and other electrical circuits of the car. This must be done ‘In a thorough manner, so that re- ception is quiet while the car is being driven. There are several methods of elim- inating interference. The usual prac- tice is to install an eliminator unit on the generator and on the start- | ing motor. In addition, elimingtors may be required at the starter swi and on other electrical de amg such as horns or windshield wi Two Microphone Types Used in Broadcasting The two types of microphone used in broadcasting are known as the double-button jcarbon and the con- denser The carbon “mike” was de; veloped along with the telephone and was used in connection — public address systems It was invented by the date Emile Berliner; but has been improved and refined by telephone experts. The condenser microphone, how- ever, is rapidly replacing the old type, because of what.is called jhe “carbon hiss” in Se Pr sme a by cur- rent passing, ugh t crophone. The newer instrumént was invented by BE. C, Wente and was developed in connection with studies of methods for obtaining ap te quality telephonic speech. The condenser transmitter comprises a substantial step beyond the earlier carbon microphone.

Mrs. Faward MatDowell, wife ' of the great American gom poser, fr in her first appearance, na- , tionally, over the radio at 90 ‘clock.

MacDowell’s pecuniary fight, through early manhood with the re- sult that he was often forced to do his composing when greatly fatigued, apd under stress: of mind and conditions far from stimulat- ing, made him particularly grafeful for the ideal surroundings he was able to find, at last; in the beautiful New Hampshire country, where his farm was situated. His generous nature made him wish that others might have the same opportunity, * . * . 4 acDOWBLL hifiself being gifted in many ways besides musi- M cally, felt strongly the close relation of all the arts. He knew the value and stimulus that artists derive from association with one another—-writers, patnters, sculptors, musicians. Thus he wished al! kinds to come to Peterboro. At his death, his wife, having prom- ised hint to.do her utmost to carry out the idea, set about undertaking the séeubia sly impossible task. This the MacDowell Mémeria!l Association came into existence. Mrs, MacDowell gaye over the ‘property, which was formerly their farm, keeping only a life interest, In more than twenty years, the sblony has proved its artistic worth to America, That it shall live now depends entirely upon financial aid to complete the endowment nb which will insure its iuture main- tenance. * The Peterboro colony has become « potent influence in America’s artistic development largely through the unceasing effort of Mrs. Mac- Dowell.

Although one of the most marvelous achievements in the history of radio, the test worked so perfectly, in so far as Secretary Lamont was concerned, as to seém almost commonplace and to leave little to talk about. Old friends, Sir Henry being an hiveitckil by birth, Mr. Lamont was easily able to recognize the Canadian railway official's voice. ; regarding the conversation. ‘‘There were po noises of any-kind from the train and no indication that Sir Henry was not talking from his home or office.

NEW ART IS GROWING There are, at present, limitations as to what may be broadcast by television according to Clem F. Wade, of Chicago, where unusual develop- ments of telévision are being made. It is not yet ible to broadcast a baseball game or a football game. Ap- paratus to make this possible has not yet been perfected, Generally speaking, 14t is present practice to locate the television pick-up appa- ratus within the radio studio, al- though this will not be the case with the ompgpr ee sk at WMAQ, Chicago. This station has just conipleted a special television studio from which it is planned to broadcast ali of their synchronized sight and sound pro- ductions. The. microphgne is the only reminder of radio in the studio. A three-quarter length picture® is ordinarily to be expected in tele- vision, but larger pictures can and will be produced regularly. For ex- perimental, purposes the engineers, om several occasions, have utilized laboratory space as a large studio, and broadcast, exceedingly well, a boxing match between two young- sters of the neighBorhood, a ballet dancer in full Jength, and an instru- mental. trio? While, according to Mr. Wade, no claim is made that perfection has been attained in television receivers now being manufactured, he declares that a high State of initial develop- in the new art tained. A finished piece “ apparatus at a ressonable price he said bag been the aim of the engineers and he predicts such «@ television set will be on the market within the next month or “Ade luxe console will contain the entire equipment for the recep- tion of sight and sound brosdcast- ing.

A second console model will contain only the televisor and short wave receiver. A smaller model pontalae only the televisor, housed eabinet.

Three court stay orders were heaped upon the commission after com- a al had failed, and the - ments of a half-dozen or more sta- tions involved were so tied up that the commissioners saw the impracti- cabllity of carrying their plan forward until either the courts er the broad- casters had been canvinced of the wisdom of the change The purpose of the reallocation order was to reduce cross talk and interference by increasing the geo- raphical distances between a num- om of stations. Seventeen cleared channels were involved, Although the majority of broad- casters accepted the chamges without complaint, three stations—-KYW, of Chicago; WHAS, of Louisville, and WHAM. of Rochester—raised enough of a howl to halt the order before it became effective. The complaints will be formally heard on June 17 by the commission, an dthe order—probably revised—wil) go into effect on July 71 If the courts permit. One of the chief causes of the trouble is the moot question of) whether the commission should re-| assign stations without giving them) a hearing. Another has to do w ith | the matter of lending channels t# ¢ belong to one of the five zones to another zone. Station WHAM obtained a stay or- der from the District of Columbia Supreme Court on the first grounds, viz., that the commission had sougnt to move it from 1,450 kilocycles to the 1,160 kilocycle channel, which it would share with Station ETeT, of Muscatine, Iowa. The Court of Appeals of the Dis- trict of Columbia granted stay orders to Stations KYW and WHAS because the borrowing issue was involved. The reallocation order took the 1,020 kilocycle channel which KYW had been using and returned it to the sec- ond zone by assigning it to Station WHAS, but it failed to settle the question of borrowing. because KYW was given another second zone fre- quency, 1,140 klilocycies, although the Chicago station is in the fourth zone. KYW already has three appeals in the District court, contending that it has an inherent right to the 1,020 kifOcycle channel. and WHAS much preferred its old assignment of 820 kilocycles. Besides it doesn’t want a frequency that might be snatched away from it any time by court order Physical Defects Found In PortugueseConseripts | For Study of Esperanto |“ Lisbon, May 3 (AP.) —Portuguese recruits drafted for service in 1929 gave staggering evidence of their physical inferiority, Ali told, 8,062 conscripts were found to have curva- ture of the spine; 8.778 were unequal- | ly developed; 24625 showed signs of generacy; 8,020 were undersized, and 35,903 were afflicted with bron- chial troubles.

Mosquito Is Checked With Purple Coloring Winnipeg, May ; 3.—Part of the Winnipeg district crop of mosquitoes will fly forth this year arrayed in multi-colored wings and stingers, royal purple predominating. Sounds like a fairy tale, but is true, vouched for by Dr. H. M. Speechly, chairman of the Winnipeg mosquito campaign. A number of mosquitoes will be placed behind a fine gauze screen and svrayed with a solution of ani- line dye. They will be released at various points and afterward recap- tured, The object of this is to deter- mine the distance that Winnipeg mos- quitoes will fly in a given time.

AUCTION—CONTRACT BRIDGE By MILTON yr “Woman's Job.” EAR Miss McDonald: There are ia lot of things I do nov? under- stand and a lot of things that I have to learn. I learn something every day of my life and I expect to keep on learning something every day un- til I die, and I do not expett to know everything then. But I do not want to express my thoughts as I think and understand them now. That article that Miss Betty wrote is a little rank and shows how the thoughts of the girls and women of the present day are drifting. In. her article Miss Betty answers everything that she wants to know, the reason the men are as they are is answered in-every word, line and paragraph that Betty has written. * ‘Také a look back for an age or two and compare the men of tifose days with the men of today. We had _preat men then, men who were men, men who made history. Why? Because mission on this ours was and did their duty as they saw it, and let the men they had brought up and trained do theirs They did not try to take the man’s job away from him, but trained him so well that te had something to start with in order to make a place for himself and his family in the world. The girls and women who thnk as Betty does today are shirking their duty to God and man. Woman was put on this earth as companion and helpmate to man, and tc bear children, in order that man would not perish from the earth. If women’s place was not the home, but out in the world to compete with the men in labor and high positions, God would have made other arrangements for the population of the world We call ourselves the most intelli- gent animal on the earth, yet we leave it to the dumb animals to show us how nature intended us-to live. The male animal always hunts and brings food for the female. The female bears and teaches her young how to_ pfo- tect itself from danger, how to hunt, how to do the thousand and one nec- essary things in order that it may live and prosper. Does the animal leave it for some other animal to teach her young? No, she does it hergelf. Yet the women of today leave their chil- dren in the care of servants and go the women realized then what theit~ little old earth ofs ‘Wives of Tomoreew. ‘By FRANCES M’DONAL out to work and then otpect tondath of their children grown. As for the ect man, which Miss Betty describes in her letter. if the girls and women of today would come to their senses, and realize what their mission here on earth was. and how important that mission was and tions, we would have more of the per- fect men that Miss Betty wants. But no, they must go out and compete with the men, to show that they have brain and wit, to direct govérnment pand business enterprises. But do they show what they know? No, they show what they don’t know They v (their children and home to take care of themselves. and not ohly that, but they deprive the man, who ts. trying to make a place for himself@in the world, trying to be something for the benefit of his wife, who ‘knows her mission on earth and is trying her best to fil) It, of the position that is rightly his. And while this woman is taking a man's. place in the world, who Is taking her place, who is teach- ng her children: the essential’ of life, manners, education and other things that enable a man to take his place in the world And again Miss Betty does not show the intelligente she claims, nor the broadmindedness which she says she is giving so much effort to. She wants all men perfect. What a worid this would be if we were all of the same minds, the same habits d were all equal in every way. e would have no need of Rpovernment, business, enterprises, money or any of the things that. go world a pleasant place live In. I would like to’ask Miss Betty that if*she did get a perfect man: what could she offer in return? We are all making 8 constant effort to broaden our viewpoints on life. But always. remember that whatever a man is, be he rich man, poor man, beggar man or thief, is because of some woman, for it is women, the most noble, lovable and divine of creatures, or the women, the most hateful of creatures, that Influences man and makes him what he is from the time vhe starts to the time he leaves this world. That I think is the most noble thing a woman can d6. Make something worth while of that which she brings into the world. “A. HOWARD.” By DR. W.

The cards were | | distributed as follows: $24 At all the tables South preferred | to bid one No Trump instead of one Over this declaration Trumps and the other bid three. When North bid two, South bid three; /so that South’s contract was three |No Trumps at all the tables. The partner of a Dealer who bids /one No Trump is expected to jump ito two when his count is 9, | 38: 10 or and to jump to three when his | count is 12. The North hand counted 6 for the Ace and Queen of Spades. 3 for the King of Hearts, 1 for the more for two Tens (a total of 11); in addivion North had an extra Ten, a Nine and a hand which promised some sup- port in every suit. While the “count” strength of the holding fell a trifle | Short of a jump to three No Trumps, it was so close that the one North who was more optimistic than the others could net be criticized severely. In the play West at every table led his Deuce of Hearts. Duminy played the Six, East: the Eight, and South won with the South then put dummy in the lead with the Ten of Spades so that hand could lead the Ten of Clubs, played West won the trick and real- ized that with the! Ace and King of his own suit still outstanding, he could not hope to establish it. He also appreciated that Declarer had established a long Club suit and held all the high Spades, so there was only one chance of saving game and The chafite of winning four was remote, but as there seemed to be no chance of saving game other- _wise, the two West players who were _placed in this position both led the} Ace of Diamonds to trick 4 and Hast | played the encouraging Eight. then was obvious that the bi ate should be led next and, when East _completed his signal by playing the Four, West led a third Diamond | which” East won and led a fourth, so game was saved. | Aft one ‘table, however, the Declar- |er foresaw the danger of a Diamond lead if the Club finesses should go | wrong; and realizing that three Spades, two Hearts and four Clubs |would give him game, played the Ace of Hearts instead of the Ten on the first trick. This, of course, look- ed to West as if East had held the Ten, Nine and Eight of Hearts, and as if one more Heart lead would clear that suit. While that West} drew the same Club inference that was obtainable when South played the Ten of Hearts, he was influenced by the supposition that Declarer held poany one more high Heart and that ze ~ he would be limited to two Heart tricks. At that one table the De- clarer added a little camouflage by winning trick 2 with Dummy’s Space |Ace instead ‘of the Ten, which did ‘not show so clearly the strength of Declarer's Spades. So at the table in question West continued his Hearts instead of shifting to his Diamond tenace and of course the Declarer was able'to make an easy game. OUR WEEKLY TOPIC. There seems to be some misunder- standing concerning -what is an in- ‘sufficient bid and what happens when /one is made, so a few words on that ‘subject may not be out of place. | An insufficient -bid is one which 'does mot overcall the last previous | bid. Three Hearts over three Spades | (for example) would be insufficient. In practically every case, the produc- | ing cause of the insufficient bid js the | bidder's failing to hear accurately the preceding bid; but the laws do not | provide any mitigation of sentence because of deafness or carelessness. When an insufficient bid is made, the other side may accidentally or in- tentionally accept it by declaring aft- er it. Such declaration, even if it be only a pass, accepts the bid as regu- lar and thereafter no penalty can be inflicted. The offender may correct by making his bid sufficient if he do so before attention is called to his error; but if any player mention the insufficiency before it is corrected and before an adverse declaration, the perialty must be paid. The penalty is phat the partner of the offender may not thereafter bid, double or redouble during that hand. All that he can do is pass each time his turn arrives and therefore the entire burden is placed upon the player who has erred. He is required to make his bid sufficient, but tn doing so is not limited to the declaration he has named: nor in making it suf- ficient is he limited in the size of his bid For example, should Declarer bid two Spades.and Second Hand, understanding the bid to be one Spade, call two Hearts, he would have to make a bid higher than two Spades upon his insufficiency being noted. But he could make any bid which was higher than two Spades; three ‘or more Hearts or Diamonds, two or more No Trumps, &c. In Contract the right to make any higher bid whatever after an insufficient bid, is frequently of great value to the play- er who wishes to bid for game. It might prove a severe hardship if he were only allowed to bid in the dec- laration he had named, and not per- mitted to go higher than merely a sufficient bid.

Much of it is due to change in medi- cal opinion, and still another part to the variableness .of fasion in diagnosis. Much of what was called gout a generation ago now goes by other names. This is especially true if we include the uric. diathesis among the evidences of gout. The present day opinion is that uric acid has very little to do with disease. It- causes some kidney stone and gravel, and a few people have real gout, but that is about all we find in the present day indictment of uric acid. The theory now is that uric acid is the product of the waste and destruc- tion of cell nuclei. Some of it comes from the waste or wear of nuclei of cells of the human body. Most of -it is derived from the nuclei 4f cells that enter into our diet. Some of this acid, or of urates, is present in the blood and tissues at all times. Some is being constantly excreted. Occasionally some precipitates in the kidney or some kidney tube, causing gravel or stone. Occasionally some is laid down in the tissues around joints, causing gout, or in other tissues, causing tophl. It is to be €xpected that the ma- chinery. which uses nuclei and, then gets rid of the waste should go ong occasionally.

Ig what had been med an impossible venture, plung- ng down beetling percipices and as-« cénding steep, and tortuous burro paths, two cars of the Automobile Club of California’s caravan ‘of In- ternational Pacific Highway éxplor- ers have -battled their way over the yawning barrancas between Tepic ard Guadalajara, Mexico, accompa- nied by a third car driven by Mexi- cai, government representatives of the party, and won their way to It not only was a su- perhuman feat of cotirage, skill and endurance, but it settled once all the fact that a highway from. the borders of Mexico through to Mex- ico City will be built. Where these cars traveled others can follow.+« The epic story of the fight to reach the summit of the heights above the barrancas is hint-| ed in the fact that it took wa hours to travel the barrancas. A Many places a slip would have Meant aad, to all occupants of the cars. Progréss was by a bare yard at a time; and where huge boulders blocked the way they were removeti by sheer musclar strength. Mueh of the pathway was not even a glori- fied trail, but a bed of shattered rocks. At ome point a club car started to slide over a cliff and was saved only by being dragged to , saféty by a tow-rope. Many Perils Mark Trip. The trip was repiete with perils and thrills. Every additional mile semed to present greater obstacles. But by building rude retaining walls where soil threatened to slide, by Herculean efforts on the part of the men and the Mexican laborers, the cars finally tolled their way over the crest of the summit. From now on the trip of the trail- blazing party through Mexico, while arduous and slow at periods, is only- a matter of time. The entire trip thus far has been one of a Ee unfolded pano- Tama remarkably picturesque country, age of it ‘over highways which were fairly travelable by the caravan of three automobile trucks and two touring cars, and part of it over secluded valley roads and along, rivers which wound in and out, under the shadows of mountain ranges and peaks that loomed beyond. Here the travelers found a civiliza- tion strikingly different from that’ of the United States. Primitive condi- tions encountered in some sections contrasted sharply with the country left behind; and the architecture, Spanish and Moorish, together wita the log huts with their thatched roofs and sides, completed a picture of an entirely new world. Scene Entirely Strange. Entering Hermosillo, the first town of importance after leaving Nogales, -the«travelers came into the country of the wood-choppers, with quaint little burros packed with wood. wom- en washing the family laundry in sluggish creeks, vaqueros galloping along on their enormous stock sad- dies, hills in the distance, adobe dwellings, and a general environment utterly Mexican in character. In thé valley of thé Magdalena River,.one of the club cars bogged down in a mud hole, and it required the united effort«of the othér four cars in the caravan to bring it out. Peons gathered by the roadside watching the procession go by, to- géther with groups of charming senoritas who peered at the automo- biles as they traveled along and chattered excitedly at the sight, . This is the land of the world-fam- ous Jesuit missions. Here Father Eusebio Kino, of undaunted energy and bravery, established some 50 mis- _ sions, one of them as early as 1701. Many of these are in. ruins now, but San Ignacio Mission still stands as a& monument to his devotion. Before reaching Navajoa the expedi- tion drove through the celebrated country of the Yaqui Indians. By the splendid cooperation of the Mexican governors, the cortege was headed with a detachment of Mexican infari- try and a second company of Mexican regulars, while a group of friendly , Yaquis were placed in the center of “the train. A platoon of soldiers drew up the extreme rear. The Yaquis are a marvelous race. After a war of more than four cen- turies’ duration they now are dwell- ing in amity under their celebrated. chief, Pluma Blanco. ‘Nevertheless, the Mexican soldiers constructing a new roadway from Guaymas to -Ca- jeme had rifles swung on their shoul- fers. The Yaquis have built many dobe forts along the frontier and no more warlike nation has ever lived since the days of Sparta. When the caravan reached the Yaqui River the Indians waded shoulder deep into the rapid and tawny waters to ferry the cars across to Culdad, Oreg., where a sumptuous barbecue had been pre- pared, Indians Give Assistance. . Leaving there the company jour- meyed into the Mayo Indian country and were ferried over a second rush- ing river, with Mayo Indians going ahead to drag the boats carrying the automobiles. From there the caval- cade proceeded into Navajoa, The natives are celebrated for the mar- velous blankets they weave, usirig ' goat hair as a texture. Near the town Gen. Obregon “is interred, and at Navajoa, Roman Yucoticio, the cele- brated Mayo Indian military leader, still resides. Continuing on their journey, Cull- acan, in the State of Sinaloa, Mexico, was reached. In this vicinity the ex- plorers passed through some towns that have been in existence 300 or 400 years. In these towns a kaleido- scopic dazzle of incidents was viewed —-naked childrem, burros hitched three abreast, peons wearing broad sombreros, leaning on their wagon tongues and prodding their ox teams, the everlasting laundering of clothes at the river edges, and the slap of _ these clothes on the adjacent ‘rocks to aid in drying them, women toiling jee — e streams with. big clay heads, curious eyes aaah "Official Service Stewart Speedometers CREEL pmo: ‘eu 14th St. N.W- Decatur 4220 ~ for. greeted the Fall Cost of Road | Work Borne by Big Independent. Club By WILLIAM ULLMAN. A feat which combines in rare measure qualities of intrepldity, romantic appeal, economic worth and public service, is that of the Automobile Club of Southern California’s international Parific Highway trail blazing expedition, which, even now, is pushing for- ward far below the Meéxican bor- Gf . "9 To chart the course of the pro- jected International Pacific high-. way, the Automobile Club of Southern California has sent’ a cavalcade southward, completely equipped and with instructions to tie anna to Central and South rica on its pioneering mission. Already the expedition has made. substantial progress through Mex- ico, but not without danger and gruelling work. The men have forced their cars through track- léss régions where a slip meant instant death, and Navé undergoné some very real hardships in their roles of modern explorers in be- half of the motorist. It is the intention of the. Auto- mobile Club of Southern Cali- fornia—which, incidentally, ac- complished the tremendous task of marking and signposting the Great American Desert—to chart and map the whole région “covered by its. present expedition and to make all of the information 4nd maps compiled available without cost to interested motorists threughout the country, The club, an independént organization, has undertaken the‘ costly and huz- ardous trail-blazing task as a pub- lic-spirited contribution to the advancement of motor travel be- tween the Americas, ing through. narrow windows and a general gathering of interested in- habijants -to follow: the travelers on their way. Stopping for hunch at an old naci- enda, the visitors found a fine build- ing with high ceilings. Outside, the patios were studded with tropical trees where the flashing wings of parrakeets and other birds darted in and out. In the kitchen the women were making tortillas and cooking frijoles. Traveling on from Culiacan the voyagers passed many huts of Mexican , inhabitants,. and observed flocks of parrots flying through the trees. ‘Navy Man Joins Party. Other towns passed through on the route were Los Mochis, Guamucnhil, and Mazjoa, where Capt. Morel of the Mexican navy, joined the party as the special representative of Gen. Almazan. At Guamuchil the entire city turned out to give thé automo- bile club caravan a rousing welcome, and at Guasave the mayor and others arty with speech-mak- ing and music by the town band. After driving fifteen days, the Au- tomobile Club of Southern California expedition reached Mazatlan. Up to that point no special trouble had been encountered, and there will be no particular obstacle in the way of making that part of the thoroughfare one of the greatest highways in’ the world. All through the States of Sonora and Sinaloa road construction is go- ing on through desert and forest. Principally needed at present are bridges and hotels. Some of the rivers are negotiated by clumsily construct- ed ferries, operated by the Indians. This is slow work, but with the in- stallation of bridges automobile traf- fic will bé tremendously accelerated. A number of the hotels*in Mazatlan are as picturesque as those im other ha lands, byt are generally lack- ing in modern édmprovements. The old towns of Elota and Guila were visited, and the company took luncheon-with, the governor of Sina- loa and his staff at the latter town. At this point the cavalcade parted from Gov. Ganola and his rodd engi- neer, Senor Auerlio Castilvo, with sin- cere regret: . On April 4 the travelers reached Acaponeta, in the State of Nayarit, Mexico. Here a detachment of sharp- shooters from the Nineteenth Cavalry had been provided for an through to Tepic. Old Trails Obliterated. At Tepic arose the first major bar- rier to meet the caravan when it be- came necessary to tackle almost ob- literated trails through the moun- tains of the Barranca country, which even burro and pack-mule trains have difficulty in negotiating.

Opponents of the legislation which, with the avid sponsorship of the American Automobile Association is a likelihood in the National Capital, have pointed this out many times. Now, it appears, proponents un- wittingly are doing likewise. At least, John E. Sullivan, New Hampshire insurance commissioner, did when he spoke this week before the United States Chamber of Com- merce, Mr. Sullivan’s subject was “What's Ahead for Business in In- surance?” “Big — profits,” mated. Why? gave it: ’ “Prior to. this law (financial re- sponsibility) becoming effective not more than 25 per cent of the cars registered in the State of New Hamp- shire were covered with insurance. Since enactment of the law:there are at least 75 per cent of the registered cars the owners of which have vol- untarily purchased insurance.” As other States, and perhaps the District of Columbia, enact such leg- islation, insurers foresee motorists in them “voluntarily” purchasing in- surance on a large scale. Heretofore the State has been the agency that awarded the individual the privilege of driving a car. Grad- ually, furtively, insurance companies and insurance minded motor clubs are talking the State out of the “‘con- cession.”’ And ‘for a profit, as Mr. Sullivan clearly indicates, More Locks, More Losses. There once was a car owner who learned a lesson that he would “never forget,” by having a brand-new car stolen. Because the stolen: car never showed up again the motorist in question bought another. The first thing he did was to have the new car insured. The second thing was to supplement the locks designed to pre- vent theft with a lock steering wheel. No thief ever was going to get that second Car. But one did. Oblizgingly, one day the owner repeated his original of- fense of walking away leaving all the locks on the car unused. It turned out to be the very day that the car came in handy fora thief. This time, however, the owner got the car back Mr. Sullivan inti- Here is the reason as he Discussing Those Matters That Concern Us All By WILLIAM ULLMAN Motorists It was not much damaged. Again he had learned an unforgettable lesson. However, he forgot again to use the locks. He began to forget regularly. The car was taken again. The story, another ones that stranger than fiction, is true. more than that, it is true of other drivers than this one. Not only are car owners suffering losses of millions of dollars yearly through the theft of cars left unlocked but, authorities de- clare, they also are losing millions of dollars by the theft of small articles left in unlocked cars. Golf clubs, purses, packages of merchandise of all kinds—all these represent a special temptation to the per thief. He almost invariably falls. The police suggestion is that the 1s car owner either leave nothing in the car to be stolen or else lock it. They see no joy in a situation that finds losses growing in proportion to the number of locks provided for the car owner's protection. 2 Not for Moter Cars. One of the currently interesting experiments on aircraft engines is that which is looking toward the elimina- tion df the radiator in connection with liquid cooling. is, of course, a follow-up of the studies which led to reducing plane radiator sizes by 70 per cent by substituting ethylene- glycol for water as the cooling me- dium. Cooling the engine by use of the high-temperature liquid in only the cylinder jackets now is con- sidered. Commenting on the experiment, a noted motor car body designer de- clares: “Uriless there is a change in public taste, it would mean nothing so far as motor car design is concerned. You've got to have either an actual or a dummy radiator for the sake of appearance.” Popular Development. Now that motor car dealers in all parts of the country are beginning to look around for supplemental profits, there are those who foresee the super- service station idea which got its start and greatest development on the Pacific Coast spread generally over the Nation. Efficient and courteous service on a broad scale, indeed, is the keynote of the superservice station. It has been made a profitable venture for its sponsors and a valuable. one for motorists who have utilized its serv- ices. Conducted on the same basis, it is bound to do likewise in all other parts of the country. (Copyright, 1930.)

It is located exactly in the center of the craft and is curved at-the bottom to permit the pilot to vary the angle at which the glider takes off. The single skid is easier to land on with the glider in good balance than many realize. By manipulating the controls, the reasonably skilled pilot is enabled to keep the craft upright until it has come to a stop. Many of the earlier gliders in Ger- many used landing wheels but grad- ually these were abandoned because the wheels added that much more to the resistance of the ship while in flight. It is possible, however. that the wheel will reenter the glider picture with increasing use of launch- ing by means of towing the craft behind an automobile. a SMITH AUTO LAUNDRY ¢' i D (BE G ¥ su AS "GE ESUMREY REEL OAM op 3 4 8 * N.

One reason for its popularity jis that it obviates the necessity of ‘having a ground crew of considerable numbers present for each take-off. Incidentally, those familiar with shock-cord launching point out that for all except the pilot of the glider | the process is hard work, especially with landings take-offs coming s0 close together in the case of the aver- age beginner whose time in the air is measured in seconds. Another aspect of glider design that is getting considerable attention is the angle of the craft from tail to nose as it rests on the ground. If this angle of attaék is too great, such authorities as Dr. Wolfgang Klemperer point out, the likelihood of stalling the glider on the take-off with small chance for recovery is proportionately greater. While the pilot may easily escape injury in event of such a stall, the craft itself may be considerably damaged. .

HAZARDS ARE REDUCED Extensive provisions have been made for visitors who while desiring to camp in the national forests, yet do not wish to forego all of the com- forts and conveniences to which they haye become accustomed, it is point- er out by L. F. Kneipp, assistant for- ester of the United States Forest Service. “The average pleasure-seeking visi- tor to the nattona) forests likes to be reasonably wild and woolly,” Mr. Kneipp says, “but although he wants to get back to nature he has devel- oped certain standards of comfort, neatness, sanitation’ and care in the use of fire not always obtainable in the open forest. Moreover, contrary to populer belief, he is strongly gre- garious and likes to camp in the neighborhod of others of his kind.” These tendencies have made it pos- sible to reduce the hazards to public health and property which otherwise would result from the presence of millions of Bae. in the national for- ests each mer, Mr. Kneipp says. By making available suitable camp grounds, with adequate. sources of pure water supply, equipment for gar- bage disposal, fire prevention facili- ties, sanitary utilities and attractive surroundings, a concentration of visi- tors is achieved yoluntarily and dan- ger to public health and propert} is held, within safe limits. At the same time the comfort and pleasure of the visitors is measurably enhanced and the social value of Me national for- ‘ests is increased proportionately. To help’ meet the needs of the mil- lions of mational forest visitors, the Forest Ser¥.ce has designated approxi- mately 1,500 public camp ‘grounds within thé national forests, and ,jias installed in 1,187 ,of these camp grounds ‘some or all of the simple facilities. which contribute to public health, comfort and pleasure, and minimize fire risk.

N the morning of November G) 22,1902, a signifidant scene was staged in one of our then typical State hospitals for the insane. An unruly inmate, having been cuffed and ghoked into sub- mission, was being carried bodily through two. corridors, down two filghts of stairs, inte the violent ward of the institution entrusted with his_care and treatment. Five men lent. their efforts-to make of it a job well done. A burly attend- ant was attached to each arm and leg. A doctor led the way in a supervisory capacity» The offender, -& youth of 25, tipped the scales at 130 pounds. ; “I know there are wards in this hospital Where helpless patients are brutally treated,” the boy had said at the beginning of the con- flict. “And I intend to put a stop to these“abusés at once.” This was one of his good gays. s lan- guage, though always as vehe- ment, was not always as polite: . *‘Whether you believe it or: not,’’ he continued, with what dignity he could summon, on the way to his new quarters, “It’s a fact that I’m going to reform these institu- tions before I’m done, I.raised this" rumpus to make you transfer me to the violent ward. What-I want you to do.now is to show me the _ worst you've got.” “You needn’t worry,” the doctor retorted. ‘‘You’ll get it.”” And the folowing days proved that he spoke truly. The patient was Clifford W. Beers, cenfined from 1900 to 1903 in public and private institutions. of his State, and classed during periods of this time as a raving “maniac. Tomorrow, as a result of this remarkable man’s su uent activities, experts from the na- tions of the world will gather in Washington for five days’ inspira- tional study of the cause, preyen- ~ The Administrative Building.at St. Elizabeths Hospital for the:Insane. “The First International Congress on Mental Hygiene” Will Convene in the Capital Tomor- row—Extraordinary History of the Case of the Man Who Launched the Movement to Be Par? ticipated In by Representatives of Many Na- tions—President.

The term was suggested by Dr. Adolf Meyer, professor of psychiatry at the Johns. Hopkins University, when Mr. Beers was making his plans in 1907 for State and national so- cieties for the prosecution of the reforms his experiences had urged him to seek. It would express the idea, it was théught} nof only of the betterment of conditions among the insane, but also of prevention of mental.disorders. Much remains to ‘be accom- plished in both these fields, but the results already obtained form a heartening reward for those who have devoted their lives to the work, Dr. C..E. A. Winslow, pro- fessor of public health, Yale School of Mediciné, states that the . last two decades have done more to change the attitude. ot-America toward mental disease and de- fect than all the centuries that preceded them. Philippe Pinel did heroic work for the insane during the French Revolution, and America, 590 years later, produced a mighty champion of their cause in Doro- thea Dix, The ‘end of the nine- teenth century; howeven,,in spite ‘breeding, By MARY PORTER RUSSELL of the strides of the medical pro- fession in the -understanding and treatment of mental iliness, showed a situation that was far from encouraging. General opin- ion was indifferent. Politics had become a powerful factor in State_ hospitals. Progress, on the whole, was slow. - li was at the beginning of the. twentieth century that the event occurred which was to bring about a jolt to the pnblic eon- science and a radfcal change in conditions. In 1900 Clifford W. Beers succumbed to a complete and devastating ‘mental break- down. That the brutality to which he was subjected in his helplessness could have obtained so short a time ago, is today al- most unbelievable. That he could have succeeded in convincing the world of its existence, beginning single handed and in the fate of prejudice, is more amazing still. The history of his case is known to thousands. He was a New Haven boy, reared in ideal surroundings by parents of fine healthy minds and sound bodies. Insanity was un- known in the records of the fam- ily. hood, normal save for undue tim- idity, he was beginning his first term at Yale, when a catastrophe befell the family... Am older After a bright, active boy-- brother; formerly in splendid health, was stricken with what was believed to be epilepsy, though it later proved to be a tumor on the base of the brain. The horror of it was overwhelm- Ing to the sensitive young stu- dent. If such a thing could hap- pen to his brother, he reasoned, why might it not also happen to him? He went on with his col- lege course; managed even to ob- tain certain coveted honors. But the years were unhappy ones for him. By the time of his gradua- tion, fear had made of him a con- firmed neurasthenic. The same dread followed him to Wall street, where he was lured by his desire for a business career. Always he pictured the humiliation that would: be his, if an attack of epilepsy should over- take him. More and more strongly he felt that it was ,com- ing. He knew that he would rather die. Three years later the break came-—not an attack of epilepsy but the surrender of. his reasor to new and terrifying forces. <A niorning arrived when he tried t- speak and found himself unah}: to-express his thoughts.

The salary paid at- tendants was $18 a month, an amount: for which only the lowest and most ignorant type of man could be induced to work. Mr. Beers was still bedridden and unable to speak. In his de- lusional state, he was suffering tortures too horrible for a sane mind to comprehend. He needed the skilled attention of competent doctors and nurses. Instead, he was left to the mercy of men who, with one exception, neglected him, cursed him and, upon occa- sion, even spat upon him—indig- nities against which he was utter- ly helpless to protest. He was committed, finally, to a larger private institution. Here he regained his bodily health and power of speech, and his mental state of excruciating misery gave way to a phase of derangement known as “elation,” a condition of rapturous happiness. He thought extremely well of his ability now. Nothing seemed too difficult for him, either mentally or physically. His chief ambi- tions were to conquer gravity and reform the mental institutions of the world. The first of these de- sires he has not yet accomplished, but the second is well under way. During his stay fh this institu- tion and in the State hospital to which he was later committed, he was a difficult, but always a gal- lant figure, excited to violence only by mistreatment of himself and others; fighting with the dauntless spirit that moved his unsteady brain and never power- ful body, for the protection of those in worse plight than him- self. ‘Just press the button of injustice, and I'll] do the rest,”’ was his dictum. He was mentally deranged, and he knew it, but he also knew, by virtue of an uncanny mixture of sanity that was his, when his keepers had overstepped their rights. There was an occasion when he attacked an attendant for attempting unlawfully to force a timid, elderly man to exercise with other patients against his will—another when he resented fistically having a few corn cobs which he had treasured in his room for some dear but harmless purpose, taken from him for the unholy motive of arousing his anger. - These were the outbreaks that led to his commitment in violent ‘wards; to his imprisonment in cold, badly ventilated cells, minus outer clothing and shoes and bed- ding; to his suffering from lack, of water and food, and to numerous chokings and beatings. Qne can picture him as he sat alone in his cell, exultantly happy over a Thanksgiving dinner, eating very. very slowly to prolong the agree able and unusual sensation, only to have his plate snatched frouf him; almost untouched, by a power-drunk guard. One can fecl with him as he writhed in the torturous embrace of a strait- jacket, adjusted with wholly yn- necessary severity by a malicious hand. All these experiences he wrote into a book upon his rélease, his reenthroned reason aided by a memory that retained tmpression¢e of every detail of his illness. He ’ told, too, of the fears and the de- lights of his delusion-filled mind of the oddly logical processes of his reasoning. It was a strange and moving story, written for the gole purpose of accomplishing re- form; written with an earnestness and forcefulness that convinced mental experts, educators and financiers. alike of” its truth. Without it, he would have had dif- ficulty in initiating his project. Through it he was able to obtain the active moral support ef emi- ment medical and professional men throughout the country and the financial] aid of neted philan- thropists. During the same year that he _,returned to the outer. world, ' armed with youth, a keen.mind, experiences such as few men. had ever known and a consuming de- sire to make use of these experi- ences in the furtherance of a noble cause, a brilliant young dédctor was likewise beginning a career dedicated to a similar end. In 1903 Dr. William A. White, *Dean o- American Psychiatrists,” came to Washington as Superin- tendent of St. Elizabeths Hostital. The position that he holds there today is the same, but the hos- pital ig not the same. He -has made in it changes that leaders in the movement would like to see made in every institution in the land. He is an outstanding rep- resentative of the new generation of psychiatrists, without whom laymen, however enthusiastic, would be powerless to effect re- sults. An interview sought with him as president of the first interpa- tional congress turned into an interview on menta] hygiene in .. ovitea~wariens phasea.:..Dhe whele ii: THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, subject is exceedingly close to his heart.’ He knows the human brain as it is known by few men in the world. He knows that a mentally deranged man is merély a sick man, who is by no means eteasts alien to his fellows. He wants him to be regarded in that way. He wants him to be accept- ed back in social and business re- lationships upon his recovery with no more stigma attached to his name than if he had suffered from tuberculosis or anemia or rheumatism. “Twenty-five to forty per cent of our patients are discharged as “recovered or improved,’’ he said. ‘“‘Many of these are never bother- ed again by any sign, of mental iliness. Some of them suffer re- currences of their disability just as might be the case with a-phys- ical disorder, but that does not mean that they are not well in the interim.” He betittled the possibility that a relapse might come on sud- deénly, thus endangering the af- flicted person’s associates. ‘“‘Re- lapses don’t come about in that way,” he explained. “Usually there are long periods of warn- ing, just as there are before an original breakdown. The im- portant thing, in either case, is for a person to.submit himself for examination and . treatment upon the first appearance of symp- toms of any mental disorder. People must conte to realize that mental sickness is nothing to be ashamed of, and that it is as fool- ish to fail to heed its early symp- toms, and to attempt to cover them up, as it would be to ignore symptoms of heart disease or ap- pendicitis. “As far as being physically afraid of former inmates is con- cerned, few patients even in the worst stages of mental derange- ment are as dangerous as. the public is prone to imagine. We have 4,700 men and women in our care here. Of that number, there are only two or three of whom I have any sense of per- sonal fear. We have our little community, and I think it shows a pretty good record of behavior in comparison with other commu- nities. Our form of government is of necessity monarchical, but it works very well, for all concern- ed. I like to think of myself as a benevolent monarch.”’ “Are most of the inmates un- happy because of their confine- ment here?’’ he was asked. “‘No,”’ he replied. “I don’t think so. I should say that they are as happy. tn the whole, as most of us. Cer- tainly, they are infinitely happier than they would be on the out- side. The mentally defective are protected from want and from - women. -of humor. ‘unscrupulous persons who might take advantage of their condition, while those with bright, but de- nn, erence aré saved from the dom tion their oddities of con- ‘duct would cause them in asso- ciation -with normal men. and Here evéry one is queer, so there is nothing to be sensitive about. There may even be a comforting sense of “superiority from watching others whose pecu- liarities are more evident. One man who had insisted that he was ready for release came back of his own aecord, after severa!) years of being buffeted by the world, and asked to be readmit- ted. He had learned that our en- vironment was what he needed.’’ “There is no mistaking the earnestness of Dr. White’s desire to make his charges as comfort- able and as contented as cireum- stances will permit. Forty doc- tors assist him in his task. Nurses brought in from pc hospitals to care for the physi- cally fll are given special coufses of training. to fit them to deal with the patients’ minds as well as their bodies. Attendants are obtained through Civil Service regulations, and though participa- tion in the attendants’ training course is not definitely ‘required * of them, since ft is given outside of duty bours, most of the em- ployes avail themselves of the op- portunity of advancement that it offers. For those who experience trouble of any kind in dealing with the inmates, it becomes com. pulsory. A motion picture inka in which equipment for talking films will soon be installed, adds greatly to the patients’ interest in life, and Dr. White mentions with unconcealed pride that an aver-. age of 3.500 books from the hos- pital library remain in circula- tion, works of travel, history, biography and fiction being re- quested in exactly the same pro- portion as in public” ere of the city. Mr. Beers made it known that it was possible for an insane per- son to retain a very active sense To this interesting in- formation, Dr. White. adds that. the worst of them are not devoid of sentiment, particularly that of the Yuletide season. “We put a trimmed tree in our most violent ward last Christmas,” he said, “and the nurses saw to it that every patient had a present. That tree remained there unharmed. Not an attempt was made to de- stroy it. ~ “I spoke of our having several really dangerous patients. One of these is a gigantic megro, a former piano mover, whod killed “MAY 4; 1930. - his wife and attempted to shoot . the officers who came to arrest im. On numerous’ occasions he has let loose blasts of invective in my direction that are not pleds- ant to remember. He is a killer —a bad case in every way—and I am physically afraid of him. And yet, every year he sends me a Christmas eard, with the most sentimental of messages. They never fail te touch me.” Occasionally a sane person, ac- cording to Dr. White’s is not without his oddit havior. hospital by a man of prominence, who must be known here as Mr. Smith, accompanied by- his i year-old daughter. es of be- “You had better leave the little . girl here,’’ insisted Dr. White, as they left his office for’an inspec- tion of the wards. “Oh, no,’’.an- swered Mr. Smith. “She can come along.’”” He was a man not given to accepting advice freely. All went well until a woman from a - balcony spied them and decided she did not think so highly of their appearance. She proceeded to tell them so in language no one could. claim suitable for a child’s ears. She told them where to go and how to get there. She was: still telling them when they departed. Mr. Smith was greatly ingensed. The next day a lettér came from him denouncing the hospital and everything connected -with it. “That woman was a real gentlewoman,” said Dr. White, “who doubtless looked -back on the incident with regret and dis- tress. Yet she was entirely with- in her rights. What I want to know fs, where should a poor Woman go to be crazy, tf she can’t be crazy here?” He led.the way, at this point,- to a sample women’s ward, locat- ed in the adnrinistrative building.. A large sitting room was reached first; filled with patients’ who seemed extraordinarily quiet and who largély ignored the presence of visitors. Some of sewing. Thousands of dollars worth of their handiwork, it was learned, is sold each year. One woman, evidently laboring under an anguish of fear, pleaded with Dr. White not to allow a man of her acquaintance—pre- sumably not an agreeable individ- ual—tto kill her. A girl of. six- teen, seen a few minutes later in the dining room, was, on the other hand, overflowingly happy. She was going to dancing school and learning to dance. She was xperience, .

The tables seated four éach and .were covered with fresh, white cloths. Mackerel, corn, potatoes, apple pie and cof- fee were being served. Patients were acting as waitresses and also assisting in the kitchen. Several plain but cheerful little private bedrooms, bedecked with flower- ing plants from the hospital con- servatory, were passed, as well as a long ward bedroom, spotlessly elean, though less inviting. -Paint- ings of peaceful fields and quiet woods were scattered here. and there, bought by Dr. White in Germany for nominal sums.

From an ex- terlor standpoint, the hospital, with its ideal location and mag- is one of the beauty spots of Washington. In the ffeld of prevention Dr. White believes that the psycho- analyst fills a useful place as ome type of mental specialist. He is an enthasiastic advocate of out- patient departments in mental hospitals, and of clinics where those suffering from nervous and incipient mental disorders may go for consultation and treatment. “Could Mr. Beers’ breakdown have been prevented?” he was asked, “if he had sought aid at that béginning of his trouble?” “At that timdI hardly think so,” was the answer. “Today, it might. That is a good fexample of the ‘ : s ’ .* , ' progress that has been made since his illness.” One project that stands out in. his mind as embodying limitless potentialities for good is the es- tablishment of child ~guidance clini¢és in every city and town. He looks upon the proper handling of “problem” children—not members of the defective or delinquent classes, but children of normal equipment who present difficulties in their adjustment to home and community life—as offering richer returns than any other ‘ phase of mental hygiene work. “Symptoms of most cases of in- sanity,” he said, fest. themselves, however slightly, in childhood. That is the proper time for a case to be dealt with.’ He drew. two. lines, starting al- mest at the same point, one fork- ing -gradually° away until there was a“wide distance between the two at the top. “It is like that,” he explained. “The longer the -.mind is allowed to deviate from its course, the harder it is to get it back in alignment. The function of the child guidance clinic is to steer it in the right direction.” 11—RUSSELL—SUN. MAG : . Parents of problem childrem in ‘ many of our larger cities are al- feady receiying the benefit of © advice and assistance from these clinics, but Washington, with its equate Community Chest fund, will not provide such serv-. iee ‘in the immediate future. Through &an arrangement made with the commonwealth fund, the National Committee on Mental Hygiene is enabled to set a clinic in operation and keep it going for a-year or more, financed by that- organization. The. city in which - it is established, however, must first demonstrate its-willing- ness and ability later to- acsume the running costs. Another plan that has Dr. White’s hearty indorsement is the by Gov. Smith that judges and juries be authorized _merely te decide on the facts in ‘a criminal case, diagnosis and treatment to.be decided by a board of medical and social ex- perts. Germany and Mexico have recently adopted this policy, and he is watching the. outcome with lively imterest. ‘‘Our prisons,’’ he said, “are the most medieval of all institutions. s that the majority. of criminals, particularly murderers, are men- tally deranged. Regarding swi- - cides, he is of the same opinion. Out of the first international congress, itis hoped that a per- organiza- tion on mental hygiene will be formed, endowed with a power ’ for good that will increase with ‘the years.

ee ee ee ae mere ¢ ™~ | — UDGE JOHN J. PARKER, of J North Carolina, is not the first nominee for the Su- preme Court to run afoul of the Senate. The list is long and dis- tinguished; On the roll one finds. the names of John J. Crittenden, of Kentucky; Roger B. Taney, of Maryland; George Edmund Bad- ger, of North Carolina;. Jeremiah S. Black, of Pennsylvania; Henry Stanbery,.of Ohio; Ebenezer Rock- wood Hoar, of Massachusetts; Ca- leb Cushing, of Massachusetts; Stanley Matthéws, of Ohio; L. Q. C.

This list by no means includes | all of those who wére nominated to this court and were rejected by the Senate. Those whose names mean nothing today,oyer whom the waves of oblivion have swept, are not included. Nor does. it include all of those who were the object. of attack but were con- firmed and lived out their days on the bench. The list giver shows that shining lights were objects of senatorial assault, and with the exception of Taney, Mat- thews, Lamar and Brandeis, fell mortally wougded with a thou- sand senatorial darts quivering in their bleeding flesh. Taney and Matthews were once rejected but in each instance an obdurate and _ stubborn - willed President sent their names back 6o'S RG® Renate, (0 RAYS SRO seven thi teittereat® aneault. that confirmed.

In the caSe of Stanbary; Congress actually passed a law reducing the, size of the court, first to nine and then to eight justices, to keep any appointee “of Andrew Johnson ~ from reaching that bench. Politi¢és has played a major part in defeating these nomina- tions and in the ap- point a man from the South and gave him several names to choose from, among «them that of Yan- cey. Failing to get one of their own, they recommended Caleb Cushing, of Massachusetts. How- ever, the President disregarded these suggestions and sent in the name of his Secretary of State, Jeremiah S. Black, who at that Jedee loin J. Parker, N orth Darcilen jurist, whose nomination for a Supreme Court justiceship to succeed the late Justice Edward T. Sanford has precipitated another of the Senate's his- - toric assaults on presidential appointments. Isaac Toucey, of Connecticut, and John J. Gilchrist, of New Hamp- shire, and sent in the name of Nathan Clifford, of Maine, who had been Polk’s Attorney General, a very able lawyer of unimpeach- able integrity. - In. an instant New Englinad was y aflame, and so was the radical abolition press of the country. John Parker Hale, of New Hamp- . shire, led the attack in the Senate, and Horace"Greeley and the New York Bvening Post led the radical press in its yawping at the ap- pointee. Hale and his cohorts seemed to think that the Demo- crats, even though they had a ma- jority of the Senate and the Pres- idency, were not entitled to. the office. But Clifford was confirmed, .26°to 23. Senator Sumner and Senator Cameron, his opponents, were absent op roll call, and Sen- ator Allen, of Rhode Island, changed his mind and voted for confirmation: This. was a-narrow squeak. Judge Clifford had a long: and distinguished career on the bench, and this, says the historian of the court, Charles Warren, “afforded a complete refutation” of the partisan attacks on his nomina- tion. It was so in Taney’s case, in that of Lamar in that of Bran- deis.. The boys don’t throw sticks into the Mmbs of a barren apple — ' time was one of the foremost law- yers in America. He had been Attorney General and had served as chief justice of the Pennsylva- nia Supreme Court. 4 Of course, the Republicans op- posed the nomination. They had a stanch ally in Stephen A. Doug- las, whom Buchanan had- mortal- ly offended when he tried to disci- pline him in the matter of the Kansas-Nebraska Dill. “I will crush you,” Buchanan told the Little Giant from Illinois. “Don’t you know that no man has defied . the Presidency an¢ survived?’’ “But you forget, Mr. President, that you are not Gen. Jackson,” said Douglas, with a smile. If some historian will write the record of the queer turns Ameri- ean history has taken from thwarted ambitig ~« and presiden- tial faux pas, it will be a most in- teresting book. Black was defeated, 25 to 26. If Douglas had voted for him he. would have been confirmed, and who doubts but that his great in- tellect might have saved much misery to the country. Andrew Johnson is the next President in line of the succession to feel the claws of the Senate digging into him because of a nomination to the Supreme Court. Justice John Catron died May 30, ~-~«+~~h865, and s. yest.tater . Johnses * declined published. Just a Quaint Old Senate Cu tom! nominated his Attorney General, Henry Stanbery, of Ohio, a fault- less Republican and an incompar- able lawyer of distinguished abil- ity, to the vacancy. The Philadelphia Inquirer ex- pressed the mind of the conserva- tive Republican press when it said: “A \most excellent appoint- ment, and it is to be hoped that he will be proniptly confirmed. His powers of legal analysis, close reasoning, accuracy of statemént and concise and forcible expres- sion have justly placed him at the head of -the present Bar of the Supreme Court.”’ The more one reads about this fine lawyer the more one admires him and the more one wonders why Ohio, so tremendously in earnest in getting all the high offices for her sons, let this one slip through hef fingers. No fight could be made on the ap- pointee, so a way out was found by Layman TrumbuW, the sena- tor from Illinois,. who, while the nomination -was pending, intro- duced and Congress passed a bill decreasing the Court from ten to nine justices, and on the death of Justice Wayne it still further re- duced its membérship to eight. Partisanship has never been car- ried to lower levels than this. When Grant came in as Presi- dent the Congress increased the Court to niné members with al- most indecent haste, but the war- rior-President took his time about making the appointment, only to have it bitterly contested. For the vacancy he selected his Attor- ney General, Judge ~ Ebenezer Rockwood Hoar, a typical New England ‘lawyer of rare ability, Some of the senators did not like his parts of speech, others ob- jected to his manners, still others thought that he would make a poor judge because he favored civil service, and somé of.the most radical of the radicals said the appointment. should goto the South, and suggested Thomas J. Durant, of New Orleans, who had been a Union man all during the war. Senators Conkling, Edmunds and Matt Carpenter led the at- tack on Hoar and, supported by the carpet-bag senators from the South, they defeated it, 24 to 33, to the infinite disgust of Hoar and the Boston clique who formed the intelligentsia of the radical move- ment. The thing. they brogght into existence turned and obit them, _ Chief Justice Chase died in 1873, and this once more vrought the court afoul of the Senate, President Grant had a terrible time filling the office. First he nominated Senator Conkling, who the nomination. Then George H. Williams, of Oregon, who nad succeeded Hoar ag At- torney General, was named, and “the fight on him from his_party associates and from the bar of the country became so bitter that Grant had to withdraw the nom- inatiow. Caleb Cushing, of Bos- ton, was then named. At this time Cushing was 74 years of age; the oldest man ever _to be nominated for stich a posi« tion. He had been Attorney Gene eral in Pierce’s cabinet and judge of the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts. Warren says of him: “As a profound jurist, he probably -excelled either Marshall Org@laney or Chase.” But of him it could be said, as Jacob said of his first born, Reuben, ‘‘unstable as water thou has been’’ political- ly. He had -been successively a Whig, a Tyler man, a Democrat, a constitutional conservative in the confidence of Andrew John- son, and a Republican. He and Jefferson Davis were intimate personal friends, and so were Da- vis and Seward, for that matter, And while his nomination was be- fore the Senate a letter he had written to Davis, recommending to his tender regard as President of the Confederacy a _ certai® young man was unearthed and -It was an innocent letter, but that cooked Caleb’s goose and Grant had to withdraw his nomination. - Senatorial objection in the next contest over a nomination to the Court seems to have been justified by the events of history, for the subjéct was none other than Jus- tice George Shiras, jr., of Pena- sylvania, appointed by President Harrison and confirmed after the strongest fight that could decently be made on him.

He was a good-looking boy, liked to wear good clothes, and “put on a front,” as the saying goes. In order to get the low-down on this man Pitts you have to have the following facts—all vouched for by good Alexandrians. Bryan Pitts’ father was a Southern Railway conductor. As such he never made any great amount of money. On the con- trary, conductors in those days— away back in the early ‘eighties and nineties—got -precious little of the necessary wherewithal. Con- sequently old man Pitts was a frugal father. He made a nickel go a long, long way. * Bryan Pitts’ mother was, in her maidenhood, Carrie Bryan. The Bryan family was always more or less prominent in Alexandria. Be- fore -her marriage to Pitts, Miss Bryan had married a man named Crosser Morgan. From this union was born a daughter, Bryan Pitts’ half-sister, who is now Mrs. J. Herbert Taylor, wife of the chief of the Identification Bureau, United States Navy. Bryan Pitts had only one brother, Garnett Pitts. From all family—Bryan Pitts and his brother and his half-sister—comes word that they were ideally raised —a good, fine, splendid mother .who instilled in the hearts of the who knew this little ~ By JOHN J. DALY and his brother and half-sister, who was Evelyn Morgan. They all lived, then, together on Prince street. After the death of the mother, the family broke up—as families have a way of doing; the control- ling influence gone. Bryan went to work for the Southern Rail- road, as a clerk in the general offices, over here in Washington. That was about 20 years ago, maybe more; and the salary earned, by Bryan Pitts in those days would hardly keep a man of wealth in cigars these times. In his early struggles up the ladder, Bryan Pitts, while- he worked in Washington, still kept in contact with his old home town. When his own home was broken up, when his_ brother stepped out and got married, and his sister did likewise, the young man went to board with a Mrs. G. William Ramsey, who then ran what. was known as the ,best boarding house in town—if not in the entire South. There are old-timers in Alexandria who’ still emack their lips when you men- tion the name of Mrs. Ramsey’s boarding house. -_Now this, absolutely and posi- _Aively, is as far as the Alexandria friends ° and acquaintances of Bryan Pitts can go with him on his career—until he became what some of them call a Big Mockey- ' go much, G. Bryan Pitts, the poor Alexandria lad who rose from a Southern Railway clerkship to the command of millions. T° all this ado about the F. H. Smith Co. and its ramifica- tions, its legal entanglements, this, that and the ether thing, the name of G. Bryan Pitts comes to the surface—G. Bryan Pitts, for- mer chairman of the board of directors. . Whenever old-line Alexandri- ans get together, they comment upon the fortunes and misfor- tunes of G. Bryan Pitts; for G. Bryan Pitts will always be a seurce of great conversation in Alexandria, or a great source of © conversation; one way or another. In the years agone—and not so many, at that—G. Bryan Pitts was a poor boy trying to make his way in Alexandria. ; Today, in, the business and so- cial world of this old city on the Potomac, almost every successful man and woman who amounts to anything knows of this boy’s— this man’s—uphill struggle. ‘They love to talk about it, but, haturally, they do not want to be quoted. As this is now the sole topic of conversation, on occa- pions, it is not difficult to get a general consensus of opinion, of fact, of fancy and of whatever else may touch upon the strange career of G. Bryan Pitts. In one of the late newspaper articles, telling of receivers tak- ing over the F. H. Smith New Werk offices in the Empire State, occurred these facts: “Accountants and agents from the Department of Justice in Washington moved in with the re- ceivers yesterday to continue ex- amination of the books for the purpose of securing more evidence for use in criminal prosecutions that have been instituted in Dis- -triet Supreme Court. against for- mer officers of the company. “G. Bryan Pitts, former chair- man of the board of directors of the company, recently was indict- ed by a Washington grand jury on the charge of embezzling more than $1,136,000 of the company's funds. = “A week later the grand jurv returned indictments on the éharges of conspiracy to embezzlie more than $5,000,000-and conceal or destroy records against Pitts, Samuel H. Henry, former presi- demt ef the company; C. Albert Apadele,’ Socmer ,.7icg,.prquigent,,..ability in any line wpless: it qras....1.,- and J. H. Edwards, jr., former treasurer.”’ - Outstanding therein, to Alexan- drians, is this line: “G. Bryan Pitts, former chairman of the toard of directors, recently in- dicted by a Washington grand jury on the charge of embezzling more than $1,136,006." _ “One million,-one hundred and thirty-six thousand dollars!’’ ex- claims all Alexandria, as in one person. To think that an Alexandria boy,.a boy who faced life in al- “most abject poverty, should ever have that amount of money con- nected with his name! : Yet, old Alexandrians will tell you, Bryan Pitts has made two or three millions of dollars since he shook the dust of the old river town from his feet. More than that, Bryan Pitts is said. to have confided to an old — friend of his not long ago that he’d give a million dollars to be out of the jam that now confronts him—and all his millions, and all the minions of the law. and all the books of the F. H. Smith Co. This name Bryan Pitts is, to an extent, a magic mame in old Alexandria. With all the trouble that brewg ahout the head of this man Pitts: there are those in the old home town who believe he is perfectly innocent; who would go to the bat for him tomorrow morning if it could be done, who would like to tell the wide, wide world that _Bryan Pitts is a good- boy—and that he never did anything wrong in his life. “Why, he couldn’t have done all these things they accredit him with doing,” pointed out an old Alexandrian the other day. ‘‘The truth of the matter is, Bryan Pitts never had it ih him to do these things.’”’ “Whatta y’ was asked. ‘“‘No. mentally,’’ was the answer —and the explanation: ‘Bryan Pitts was never any financial genius——and it takes a financial genius to do all these things ac- eredited to the agents of the F. H. Smith Co.”’ As a matter of fact, they will tell you down in Alexandria, Bryan Pitis never had any great mean; morally?” whe taught them the rudiments of thrift. Pitts ury, he never forgot his sister or brother; not that they needed any financial help or anything like that, but that this was the nature of the man—te_ see that his own people sharéd with him in his hap-. piress. the Pitts family ever knew was Mock with the F. H. Smith -Co. They can remember him as a small boy, playing with other small boys, most of whom are now the legding men of the city. They recall the days when he went to school—to the graded school, and they will tell you he never got any farthe?® than the eighth grade. They will recall the sad days when his.father and then his mother died, and the day when he started manfuHy out on a career as a clerk in the main offices of the big railroad .company. - They will tell of his calling on this girl, or that, and the little eommon- places of life that affected him at oung folk the principles of right iving; a hard-working father, In his later years, when Bryan lived in the lap of lux- Strange, the first real money when the mother died.

Bryan Pitts then dropped out No one in Alexandria knew what had become of Bryan Pitts, save that he was over here in ~ Washington—and that, vaguely, he — got a job with the F. H. Smith e a * Now, as for the F. H. Smith Co., in those days that meant precious little, either. It was merely a name—like the Johnnie Jones Co. or the A BC Co., or some such outfit. : é Then, one fine day Bryan Pitts drove down to Alexandria in a limousine. : It was his own car, too, with his initials p&inted on *he side doors, with a liveried chauffeur, and That was what the boys cal) the arrival of the shock troops. It was the first thrill Bryan Pitis ‘gave to his old home town, Imagine, then, the tongues wagging. Bryan Pitts who was once poor as a church mouse. Bryan Pitts come to town in his own limousine. Well, Bryan Pitts did more than that. One day he visited his old Sunday school—where he learned the commandments, as a youth. This was in Grace Episcopal Church. Looking round, he de- cided that this would be a good place to erect a memorial to his mother—and so, later, he gave the church a beautiful baptismal font. _ .Now, anybody who has such thoughts as his, and such gen- « erosity, can’t be far wrong—the Alexandrians will tell you—and they are about right. Bryan Pitts in his early man- hood, and in his later life, was always influenced by high ideals. This is whiat his boyhood friends will tell you, and they mean it. How, then, they ask, could he have gone wrong—except that he ~got mixed up with the wrong kind of people; that some one used him as a cat’s paw. This is what they say. It may, of course, be just so much conjecture. No one knows —no one but Bryan Pitts and his confreres. Anyway, there is that beautiful memorial—a baptismal font—-in’ the old church in Alexandria, to prove that Bryan Pitts’ heart was ateone time in the right place. That day when the font was _ presented, when the memorial was dedicated to his mother, was a bright particular day in the life of Bryan Pitts. Almost all Alex- andria turned out. Bryan Pitts, in his high silk hat, his cutaway eoat, his Striped trousers, patent leather shoes, and spats, his cane draped over his hooked elbow, was the center of all attention— next to the font. That was a happy day—and Bryan Pitts, they say, would give something pretty to live it over again. He was in his .element then. Clothes had been his hobby, his dream, and here he was dressed in the height of fashion—like a motion picture actor at_a garden party.

From the cab a vigilant -engineer watched for the reassuring gleam of emerald signal lights or for the red warning of danger ahead. At frequent intervals the fireman balanced himself precariously on the swaying cab floor, while the blackness above and behind re- flected a reddish glare as he swung open the fire door to throw in heaping scoops of coal. Billows of cinder-laden smoke streamed and eddied above 68 loaded freight cars, following the engine in shrieking, rattling pro- test—-cars laden with fresh fruit. from the South, manufactured ar- tieles from the Middle West, coal, oil and a miscellany of other mer- chandise comprising a value-total in excess of a million dollars— speeding on_ express train sched- ule to supply the needs of hun- dreds of business enterprises and thousands of individuals. Midway of the train, on top of @ rocking box car, a man slowly made his way forward with head bent before the intensified fury of the storm. Pausing for an in- stant at the end of the car, he es- sayed the 3-foot leap to the car ahead and frantically clutched the edge of the ‘“‘cat-walk” to save himself as his feet slipped on the heavy coating of sleet. A moment later a terrific blow in the face from an ice-incrusted ‘‘cat-o’-nine- tails’’ warned him of an approach- ing low bridge and he lay flat on the car roof until sound rather than sight informed him that the bridge had been passed. Down a treacherous, icy ladder, and then through loose coal piled in an open “gondola,” he strug- gled to the lea of the preceding car, where he removed his gloves. and blew on nearly frozen hands before clambering on. Painfully he made his way the entire length of the train, waved a salute as the fireman saw his ice-coated fig- ure outlined in the fireglow above the tender .. and—immediately started back again. Many pleasanter ways to spend a long winter’s night may easily be visioned, but the lot of a police- man, even on the stable pavements of a city “beat,” is not an enviable one in adverse weather. That of the “train-rider” of the railroad ‘ police seems even less so, after consideration of a portion of his duty as outlined above.

The theory is wrong, however, as the various railroad police offices keep the list and pictures of “wanted” persons continually dis- played. These are consistently studied by railroad policemen, who as a result apprehend hundreds of persons each year who might otherwise never have been located. Most of these men are desperate, and the officer who enters a sus- pected hiding place needs to be quick with his fists or ready with his gun for the protection of his very life. But, to return to the man whom we left walking the tops of the cars. Many robberies from freight cars have been effected by persons who secreted themselves within loaded cars and threw out mer- chandise as the train traveled along. Later he or a confederate picked up the goods thus scattered along the wav. The man traveling back and forth along the cars must constantly be watching and listen- ing for such attempts and at every stop must travel along beside the cars and examine the seals to make sure that none has been tampered with, Incidentally, the interstate lar- ceny bill of the Federal laws makes it a felony to break a car seal, whether or not with mercenary in- tent. ‘ The duties of the train-rider are possibly more colorful, but of no greater importance, than those of the men assigned to guard duty in various freight yards or at points along the line where rail- road property or ‘merchandise within charge of the railroad com- pany may be stored. But in spite . of the constant vigilance of these men, thieves are occasionally suc- cessful in raids upon valuable car- goes, and it is then up to the rail- road police captains, with what assistance they may command, to detect the criminals and recover the stolen property. . In this work they invariably re- ceive the hearty cooperation of various State, cit and county au- thorities as well as that of the po- lice force of other railroad com- panies, but because of the spe- cialized nature of their problems the desired results are usually ob- tained by their own efforts. In one famous case an organ- ized gang of train robbers was 4 * lec prwe on ore x < FORA, Aneel A ot ne — eee PROSE SES Ba OS : | through an exceptionally fine piece of detective work that would have done credit to Scotland Yard. The leader of the band, on the other hand, was a worthy foe. Over a considerable period this gang had been operating and showing an uncanny ability to choose the time and place when and where their depredations could be made with best results and least risk. The case had all the earmarks of inside connec- tions, particularly since when ex- traordinary precautions wera taken all robbery attempts ceased, to immediately be resumed when vigilance was lessened. | A railroad policeman decided to watch closely a certain man who seemed innocent enough, but who, because of his duties, might be able to -secure information of value to thieves. Working along beside him in an ordinary occu- pation, he discovered certain facts of association and by cou- pling them with shrewd guesses convinced the man that he knew all the circumstances. This railroad employe was a ‘member of the robbery gang, who had been placed in this position with the deliberate intention of securing the type of information he had been passing along to his chief, and after his confession, and in full cooperation with . his captor, he was used to give false information which dtvided the criminals into two opposing fac- tions. Each group was then caught red-handed, and because of the bitter feeling which had been stirred up each served to convict the other. It is evident from the record of such cases, as well as from the yearly reports of the various rail- road police forces, which_indicate the enormous savings that they” effect for their employers, through recovery of stolen property and conviction of thieves, that the railroads maintain exceptionally efficient forces of men trained in police duties. The fact is also recognized, and often utilized, by various communities, including the City of Washington. During inauguration ceremonies and at other spérial times these well-drilled, smartly uniformed men are employed to augment municipal forces in traffic control and to serve in any other manner that may prove desirable to the authorities. They also represent an important reserve force of trained policemen, available to cope with any emergency, any- where, any time. Invariably the appearance , of railroad police at special occa- sions is without expense to the community or authorities whom they serve. During the various presidential inaugurations, begin- ning with Roosevelt’s, during the great national Shriners’ conven- tion and upon numerous other oc- casions, detachments of Baltimore & Ohio, Pennsylvania and South- ern Railway police did duty in. Washington, and their expenses were borne by the respective roads. 7 It is only at such times and when detailed for duty on passen- 'Céritinued bn PHEE*T6, Cotdihn 2.

The picture which we present this week as our frontispiece, ‘A Happy Evening,’ will, we feel sure, meet with the approval and appreciation of our readers, for mot only is it a happy conception of the artist, but it portrays a scene being enacted in thousands of American homes daily the year around. The magic lantern, a toy but recently introduced here, is the source of never ending pleasure to the children and to their elders as well. At the same time it teaches some simple lessons in mechanics to the little ones to whom the mystery of the trans- ferred pictures is at first past finding out. But the lesson which the artist probably had most in mind was the beauty of the fam- ily life when parents and chil- dren understand and are under- stood by one another; when the parents are willing to enter inte the small joys of the child and where affection and obedience hold sway. Never before, per- haps, in the history of men has the ideal of the family circle been so nearly attained as today in America and it is safe to predict that the future of our ceuntry is secure as long as te a majority of our people at least “‘there is no place like home.”’ SUNDAY, MAY 4, 1930. ; inf ' NEW YORK’S FIRST DOG SHOW (From a Report Written in 1877.) The first annnal New York bench show of dogs was opened at the Hippodromie on the eve- ning of May 8. Mr. Henry Bergh, president of the Society for the Prevention of Cruélty to Animals, delivered the opening address. To be quite truthful, we should say Mr. Bergh attempted to deliver the address, which, because of the barking, snarling and whining of the dogs was audible to only a very few of the audience. There were 1,300 dogs cata- logued and divided into eight classes. Among the most notable of the entrants were two deer hounds, Osear and Dagmar, bred by Queen Victoria from the late Prince Consort’s famous breed each 3 years old and valued at 10,000 pounds. Other Burepean dogs were St. Bernards, Irish Set- ters, a gray Siberian bleedhound and several bulldogs of fine breed, The firm of Tiffany & Co. of- fered several silver trophies, one for the setter elass being a beauti- ful piece of silversmith’s work worth hundreds of dollars.

Since then the ladies have kept up their exer- frequently indulging in match games of eroquet, lawn ten- mis, the amusing game of Aunt Sally, and have recently inaugu- rated an archery team. The art of shooting with bow and arrows is probably the oldest of sports, going back to the time of Nineveh and Egypt, and the histery of archery has been the history of England until the use of firearms superseded the’ long bow. In later times, since its implements have been displaced as weapons, they have been de- voted to amusements, the rage for target sheoting being revived now and again in sporting circles. Such a revival is now imminent, and the ladies of the Outdoors Club of Staten Island bid fair co become as expert in the game as are their English cousins.

First on account of the huge expense, and secondly, if completed, travel by means of it would be a most gloomy and un- pleasant experience. Not that the idea of running an elevated track through our streets has been al- tegether popular either, residents complaining that it would deprive their homes of all privacy as well as being an obstacle in the road- ways. However, these objections have been in a measure overcome and a part of what we hope will eventualiy be a large system has been completed. “Some years age Dr. Rufus Gil- 1879 bert began te urge the building of such a railway connecting the crewded section of the city with its outskirts, thus making it pos- sible for the unfortunate folk then living in unwholesome sur- roundings to remove te homes where betier air and more room would be available, while they would still be within easy reach of their work.

Ot ap arene et eran tt Gens ns tite mip te Eda CLIO OI aS AAP" By “3g m5 irst To Sing Home.Swee HE history of “Home, Sweet Home,” one of the best- known songs in the world, is strangely intertwined with the National Capital. John Howard Payne, the author, was once a Government clerk in Washington, aad spent many happy years here. During the Tyler administra- tion he was appointed American Consul at Algiers, Africa. This interesting man, who wrote so beautifully about home—and yet never had one—died at that far- away post in 1852, and his body was laid to rest there. It was not until 33 years later—-1883— that his remains were brought back to his native land and re- interred in Oak Hil Cemetery, out in Georgetown. The expense of bringing the bedy across the sea was borne by William W. Corcoran, the man who founded the Corcoran Gallery,of Art. A choir of 1,000 voices rendered “Home, Sweet Home” as his body was gently lowered into its final resting place. Anna Maria Tree had the dis- tinction of being the first person in the world to sing the song which is now known throughout the world. It was the occasion of the premiere of an opera com- posed by Payne, known as “Clari, or the Maid of Milan,” at Covent Garden, London, May 8, 4823. Miss Tree was handsome and 22 when she created the role of Clari, and started “Home, Sweet Home” on its never-ending career of popularity. She was one of four sisters who were stage favor- ites at that time. Her voice was well suited to the rendition of a plaintive air of this kind. The beauty of her face and figure were such as to win the audience before she uttered a word. The night she first sang this song she wore a white dress, all prettied up with lace and ribbons. The audience was thrilled with her performance. The dramatic critics were lavish in their praise of both the song and the singer. The next day all London was talking about her and the new song she had made famous. © The following breezy epigram in hon- or of Miss Tree went the rounds of London: “On this Tree when a nightingale settles and sings The Tree will return as good as she brings.” Miss Tree sang “Home, Sweet Home,’’ in such a nice, “homey” way that it soon resulted in a pro- posal from James Bradshaw, a young man of wealth and social position, who had previously been a member of Parliament for Can-. ‘ terbury. This wise young man figured that any girl who could sing so beautifully about “home” would be just the one who would know how to make a real home for two. He soon arranged an introduc- tion to the popular actress, lost no time in telling her that she was the “only one in the world,’ and suggested an early visit to a par- son. It seems to have been a mighty nice ease of love at first sight. Anna whispered “yes,’’ and everything was lovely until -Bradshaw’s mother heard about the affair. ‘for her son.

Anna Maria Tree, the first person in the world who ever sang “Home, Sweet Home” in public. withered and the birds become songless. . Everything was gloomy and drear. " In mad desperation she rushed to a drug store and purchased a bettle of laudanum. The drug- gist, a wise old owl, suspected that something was wrong and di- ‘buted ' the’ drug 'to such an extent - that it was harmless. Her maid, likewise a wise young maiden, di- rected the driver of the carriage to go to a doctor’s office. Through this action the contemplated sui- cide was frustrated. ; When Bradshaw learned about his mother’s interference with his love affairs he raised a row that was never forgotten as long as she lived. It was the last time shg “butted in.” Wedding bells soon were ring- ing. The marriage was a perma- nently happy one. On the night of June 15, 1825, Miss Tree made her farewell appearance at Co- There were tears in the eyes of all present when this sweet lady sang “Home, Sweet Home,” for the last time in public and left the stage forever. The opera “Clari’’ was brought to America during the same year it. was first presented in London, and was produced in New York November 12, 1823. Susanne Johnstone, who later became the wife of the elder Wallack, played the part of Clari, and thus had j H. O. BISHOP the honor of being the first person in the United States to sing “Home, Sweet Home.” The op- era and its principal song made just as great a hit in New York as. it had in London. Everybody was whistling and humming it. Henry Rewland Bishop, one of the most noted lyrical composers of England, wrote the music for “Home, Sweet Home,” and the entire opera, “Clari.’”’ The mel- ody of “Home, Sweet Home,” however, was suggested, in a vague sort of way by Payne him- self. The basis for this claim is contained in a talk which he is said to have had with. an old friend while he was in New Or- leans in 1835, in which he said: “I first heard the air in Italy. One beautiful morning as I was strolling alone amid some _ de- lightful scenery my attention was arrested by the sweet voice of a peasant girl who was carrying a basket, laden with flowers and vegetables. This strange air she trilled out with so much sweet- ness and simplicity that the mel- ody at once caught my fancy. I _ accosted her, and after a few mo- ments’ conversation I asked for ' the mame of the song, which she could not give me, but having a slight knowledge of music myself, barely enough for the purpose, I requested her to repeat the air, which she did while I jotted down the notes as best I could. It was this air that suggested the words of ‘“‘Home, Sweet Home,” both of which I sent to Bishop, at the time I was preparing the opera of “Clari.” Bishop happened _ to know the air perfectly well, and adapted the music to the words.” Anna Riviere, a young musical student, who witnessed the’ ‘first production of “Clari” in London, eventually had more to do with spreading the fame of ‘Home, Sweet Home” throughout the world than any other one person during all the intervening years. In 1832 she became the wife of Bishop, the composer, Unfortu- nately there was an unhappy jar- ring of notes in their home life. They lived together for seven years and then the restless Anna eloped with Bochsa, the harpist. They set out on a tour of the con- tinent. For a time the indiscre- . tion of the young~-wife caused a feeling of resentment among the people. But the love for Anna Bishop, the singer, soon overcame her mix-up 4s a wife, and she con- stantly grew in popularity. Thousands of people in various countries heard ‘“‘Home, Sweet Home” for the first time from the lips of the talented Mme. Bishop, as she was known. She was a linguist of rare ability and could give the song in almost any lan- guage. She sang “Home, Sweet 7 t Home” Home” in every country in Eu- rope, and in India, China, Africa, South America, and all over the United States. Once she was ship- wrecked on the Pacific Ocean; the captain and most of the crew were lost, but Mrs. Bishop and several others landed on Wake Island, and finally reached the Island of Guam where they gave a concert and the natives heard “Home, Sweet Home”’ for the first time. The incomparable Adelina Patti, for a generation conceded to be the world’s greatest singer, had a touching experience with “Home, Sweet Home” at the White House when President and Mrs, Lincoln lived there. She had been invited there as their guest, The President surprised the gold= en-voiced woman by recalling thé fact that he had heard her sing when as a little girl she had toured the country with Ole Bull, the noted violinist. When Patti had rendered a number of songs, concluding with “‘The Last Rose of Summer,” she observed that Mrs. Lincoln was looking out of the window with tears streaming from. her eyes, and that Mr. Lin- coln was sitting on the sofa with his hand shading his face. It then dawned upon the singer that the Lincolns were still grieving over the loss of their little boy, Willie. She prepared to sing something more lively and cheerful, but the President gently requested her to sing ‘“‘Home, Sweet Home.”’ With considerable embarrassment she informed him that she’ knew neither the words nor the music. Without a word, Lincoln went to a small stand and picked up an old song book with a bright green cover. He opened it at ‘‘Home, Sweet Home,’”’ placed it on the piano and resumed his seat on the sofa. It is doubtful & any singer ever madé a braver effort. When the President thanked her his voice was husky and tears were in his eyes. In a sobbing voice Patti said good-by. From that time on, more than 40 years, Patti always used ‘‘Home, Sweet Home” as a final encore wherever she appeared. A great many people seem to be under the impression that John Howard Payne never wrote any- thing except “Home, Sweet Home.” As a matter of fact, he was one of the gréat playwrights of his time, his principal productions be- ing: Operas—“Clari, or the Maid of Milan,’’ “The White Maid,” “The Tyrolese Peasant,” “Vistandines” and “England’s Good Old Days.” Farces—‘Fricandeau, or the Coronet, and the Cook,” “The: Post Chaise,” “’Twas I,” “Mrs. Smith,” “Love in Humble Life,” “The Lancers,” “Grand-Papa,” “Peter Smink”” and “Not Invited.” Dramas—“Spanish Husband,” “Therese, or the Orphan of Geneva,” “Norah, or the Girl of Erin,” “Adeline, or Seduction,” “The Two Galley Slaves,” “The Rival Monarchs,” “Paoli,” “Soli- tary of Mount Savage,” “Ali Pacha,” “The Inseparables,” “Maid and Magpie,” “Accusation,” “The Guilty Mother,” “Man of the Black Forest,” “Mme. de Barri,” “The Festival of St. Mark,” “The Bridge of Kehl,” “The Judge and the At- torney,” “The Mill of the Lake,” **Maezppa” and “Novido, the Nea- politan.” ‘Comedies—“Charles II,” “Pro- crastination,” “Married and Sin- gle,” “Plots at Home,” “Woman’s Revenge” and “All for the Best.” Tragedies—“Brutus, or the Fall of Tarquin,” “Romulus,” “Vir- ginia, or the Patrician’ Perfidy,” “Oswali of Athens,” “Richelieu, or the Broken Heart,” “The Italian Bride,” “Lovers’ Vows” and Wanderer.” >

He saw the inquiry in my eyes, and set his own face in a grave stare. If ever there nad been any glimmer of a suspicion in my mind about Edderley it vanished. I had surprised a blissful honeymoon husband without a care in the world, and not a man who feared justice or felt like a fugitive. “‘Anything wrong at home?” he asked. **You weren't conscious of any- thing wrong before you left, Ed- derley?’’ He seemed question, said: “‘No—that is—-no.

Do you really think I’ve beaten the record for detective-dodging and rushed from Woodbury to Lisbon justin order to drag you back, when I could have done that with a nait- crown telegram?”’ Edderley’s face brightened. “Well, when you put it that way it does seem rather strange. But what’s the idea?’”’ I suppose, all my thoughts hav- ing been concentrated on the Bar- dolph business since the birth of time, as it seemed to me, I was a little unjustly impatient with Ed- derley for failing to take it all in at once. I began a laborious ex- amination of the mystery of the dinner party, of Cantlick’s half- suggestions, of Mellon’s queer at- titude, of the disappearance of Lord Iseaster and Col. Darley. “Do you want,’’ I asked him, ‘‘to take Mrs. Edderley back to face all this? Do you want to be arrested yourself?—for if I’m not a fool Pierce would clap you in jail on sight, and chance it. My dear Edderley, so far as I’ve been able to think it out, the proper thing for you to do is to lie doggo till the thing is cleared up, as it’s bound to be sooner or later. That’s why I came to Lisbon. I didn’t want you to see the reports in the papers and come out in the open; as I felt sure you would. And if you didn’t see anything I was afraid you would go on the Ca- nary Islands and be caught there. You can’t get far on a small island, and a fugitive Englishman either at Tenerife or Grand Canary would have a very short run for his money. You've gof to stay in Europe within reach of cars and _ trains. How about pass- ports?” “All right. I got one in London last Thursday when Katherine and I had made up our minds what to do. Mr. and Mrs. Harri- son are free to travel in Portugal, Spain or their possessions.’’ “And how about money?”’ “Enough for some weeks.” “Then,’’ said I, ‘‘you’ve got to leave the ship, and it had better be soon. And then leave Lisbon. I’m pretty certain that I gave Mr. Pierce the slip. But I’ve a whole- some respect for his thoroughness and the cracking pace he goes.

He lingered over the thought that _he ought to “‘face the music!” I told him that facing the music was a silly phrase, and that a sensible man should not enslave himself to a phrase. But it was his wife who settled it. I need not try to describe the astonishment with which she found me in her husband’s cabin while he was pinning his tie. Or the pleasure with -which I saw her, more radiant than ever, in an aura of happiness. Or the changes that passed across her face, like clouds over a summer sky, as she dAistened to the narra- tive that I had to reproduce for her. She did not interrupt except to say, when I described the van- ishment of Lord Iscaster: “I know where father has gone. Rather clever—but I wonder why? ... Never mind.” At the end. as I remarked that Edderley seemed a little doubtful about what he ought to do, she settled it in an instant. “Of course, Mr. Allison’s right, Jim,”’ she said. “I couldn’t en- dure it. There’s no good to be done by it, either.’’ And then it appeared that Ed- emir wag only glad to be per- . suad ViVi eS PETE OTTO TEER Le eli tbbeett CHAPTER TWELVE. LL this had taken some time, and the ship’s breakfast hour was long past. Edderley had some food brought by the deck steward, and we ate in his cabin. I had planned it out during my long train journey. The little cottage at Cascaes, My old friend Senhora Almeida. One good turn deserved another, and I would get it from her. At Cascaes they would be quite private, out of reach of any English, and within reach of me while I stayed in Lis- bon, which I meant to do until I could determine whether Mr. Pierce had trailed me or not. “IT feel like a Goth or a Hun bursting into a temple,” said I to Mrs. Edderley. ‘‘I can’t expect you really to forgive me, though I know you'll pretend to. It’s a shame to spoil your trip to the Fortunate Islands. But I’m afraid it must be given up.” _ She said she quite saw that, and that I was neither Goth nor Hun, but a friendly Englishman, that forgiveness was not the word but gratitude was—and a lot of other things to put me at ease in what was a very delicate situation. “Well,” I said, “I can’t send you to anything so fine as the For- tunate Islands, but if you’ll agree to my plan I think you will be pretty well placed and quite safe. Do you know Lisbon, Edderley?’’ “Never set foot in the place till last night,” he answered. ‘Well, round the corner at the mouth of the Tagus, 10 or 15 miles down, there’s a little place called Cascaes. I’m going to take you to Cascaes and introduce you to a friend of mine, the Senhora Almeida. I made her acquaint- ance about 18 months ago. I needn’t tell you the circumstances, Oh, no,’’ I said to Mrs. Edderley, ‘nothing romantic. She’s an old lady with a family. But she will do anything in the world to oblige me, even to concealing fugitives. In fact, that’s quite in the atmos- phere here. Senhora Almeida has a villa at Cascaes, or a little way inland from it, where you can stay till I fetch you away. You may be horrified by her taste in architec- ture, which is florid—though that’s in the atmosphere also. But you'll be delighted with the Sen- hora. I think her broken English is absolutely delightful. Will you agree?” ‘ Edderley looked at his wife. “Of course,’’ she said. ‘‘We’re absolutely in your hands, Mr. Al- lison.

PLAN A FITTING TRIBUTE TO HONOR MOTHER'S DAY A Little Gift, Drawing or Poem, Would Please Mother on Her. Day Dear Post s and Girls: May 12 is Mothers’ Day and I hope the members of The Junior Post will remember this beautiful day in their stories, poems and drawings sent for the next two There are many ways in which you can show your dear mothers how much you care for them and know all the wonderful things they do for you constantly. On Mothers’ Day I want each Junior Post boy and girl and page of the Knighthood of Youth to take a flower or other smal] gift to his or her mother in memory of that day. If you can not get a flower or other gift, write Mother a little mote telling how much vou care for ~ her and thanking her for all she has done for you. This will mean more than the most costly gift to her. Perhaps some of our Junior Artists. might make drawings for their moth- ers. Or write a little poem-to her. Be sure it is your own work, do not take a Mother's poem out of a book and claim it as your own. For if you did this, it would grieve your mother greatly and make her unhappy on the _very day she should feel so happy.

Lene ll aoe TH : aaa 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 individuals, to whom the truth might have been known, suddenly disappear, leaving the implication of murder. 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 decpens an already baffling mystery. More and more people become involved in the suspicion that some one must pay a heavy penalty for the death of the magnate, until even Allison, the lawyer, is forced to assume a false name and iden- tity to confer with those he would protect. CHAPTER ELEVEN, DDERLEY own cabin. “Fortunately,’’ said he, Ship’s not very full this trip, so we got two rooms; Katherine’s next door. I was going to bump on the wall and tell her to get up and look at the Tagus in the morning light.’’ “How is .Miss—lI Edderley?” I asked. “Oh, fit—wonderful,”’ *What’s up, Allison?” I sat on the couch opposite Ed- derley’s bunk and looked hard at him. He saw the inquiry in my eyes, and set his own face in a grave stare. If ever there nad been any glimmer of a suspfcion in my mind about Edderley -it vanished. I had surprised a blissful honeymoon husband without a care in the world, and not a man who feared justice or felt like a fugitive. “Anything wrong at home?” he asked. “You weren't conscious of any- thing wrong before you left, Ed- derley ?’’ He seemed question, said: *“‘No—that is—no. I suppose it’s Iscaster, eh? Taken it badly? Done something silly?” “You balk at it. old man,” said I. “If you knew of anything wrong before you left—for heavy- en's sake tell me!’’ “Tf hesitated because I had a curious experience. But I may have been quite wrong in the idea that flashed into my mind. I gave it the go-by as a silly idea. I’ll tell you what it was, if there seems to be any need. Now, out with it, Allison! Why have you come a thousand miles to see me im my dressing gown?’”’ Then I told him, whfle he sat on the edge of the bunk literally gap- ing at me. ,I went, through | " whole ‘story from .the ; point: , ‘which Fenstock had showa atthe Liverpool which I had given Mr. Pierce’s messenger the slip at Mantes. “My aunt! what ae ghastly mess!’’ was Edderley’s comment. *“"Now I'll tell you, Allison, what the idea was that flashed into my mind. It wasn’t such nonsense after all. It weighed on me a 200d bit at first. Then I thought ft was merely foolish and I let it z0. When I was hurrying across the park to meet Katherine by the gate into the woods I thought I heard a shot and I thought the shot came from the house. Then it occurred to me that it might »be———”” ‘“‘Poachers,”’ said I. “The same thought occurred to me.” “Then you heard it, too? mever said a word, Allison.” “No, but I thought a good deal when I saw you turning back and listening at the gate—and a good deal more when I learned what had happened.” “You don’t mean that you sus- pected * he began, with a hor- rified look. “No, I can honestly say I never ‘really suspected. But when Wil- by began to speculate on what had happened, that, of course, was ene of the theories. You'd heard ‘Mothing at al] about Bardolph?” took me into his mean Mrs. he said. the then surprised _by hesitated, and You “the - Echo ‘to ‘the point at ” “Not a word. We've been at sea all the time, with no wireless news, We got in last evening and went ashore to a theater, but I saw no English papers and never thought of looking for English news in a local rag. Besides, Katherine and I haven’t been wor- rying about news. Now, I sup- pose we’re in for it. Back to Eng- land to face the music. Poor girl! She’s well plucked—but this is rather hateful, -you know, Alli- son.” “TI should think it would be— if it happened,” said I, “If——-? What d’you mean?” “You aren’t usually a_ thick- head, Edderley. Do you really think I’ve beaten the record for detective-dodging and rushed from Woodbury to Lisbon just in order to drag you back, when I could have done that with a half- crown telegram ?”’ Edderley’s face brightened. “Well, when you put it that way it does seem rather strange. But what’s the idea?”’ I suppose, all my thoughts hav- ing been concentrated on the Bar- dolph business since the birth of time, as it seemed to me, I was a little unjustly impatient with Ed- derley for failing to take it all in at once. I] began a laborious ex- amination of the mystery of the dinner party, of Cantlick’s half- suggestions, of Mellon’s queer at- titude, of the disappearance of Lord Iseaster and Col. Darley. “Do you want,’’ I asked him, ‘‘to take Mrs. Edderley back to face all this? Do you want to be arrested yourself?—-for if I’m not a fool Pierce would clap you in jail on sight, and chance it. My dear Edderley, so far as I’ve been able to think it out, the proper thing for you to do is to lie doggo till the thing is cleared up, as it’s bound to be sooner or later. That’s why I. came to Lisbon. I didn’t want you to see the reports in the papers and come out in the open; as I felt sure you would. And if you didn’t see anything I was afraid you would go on the Ca- nary Islands and be caught there. You can’t get far on a small island, and a fugitive Englishman either at Tenerife or Grand Canary would have a very short run for his money. You've got to stay in Europe within reach of cars and _ trains. How about pass- ports?” “All right. I got one in London last Thursday when Katherine and I had made up our minds what to do. Mr. and Mrs. Harri- son are free to travel in Portugal, Spain or their possessions.”’ “And how about money?” “Enough for some weeks.” “Then,’’ said I, ‘‘tyou’ve got to leave the ship, and it had better be soon. And then leave Lisbon. I’m pretty certain that I gave Mr. Pierce the slip. But I’ve a whole- some respect for his thoroughness and the cracking pace he goes.

He lingered over the thought that he ought to ‘‘face the music!” I told him that facing the music was a silly phrase, and that a sensible man should not enslave himseif to a phrase. But it was his wife who settled it. I need not try to describe the astonishment with which she found me in her husband’s cabin while he was pinning his tie. Or the pleasure with -which I saw her, more radiant than ever, in an aura of happiness. Or the changes that passed across her face, like clouds over a summer sky, as she distened to the narra- tive that I had to reproduce for her. She did not interrupt except to say, when I described the van- ishment of Lord Iscaster: “I know where father has gone. Rather clever—but I wonder why? ... Never mind.” At the end, as I remarked that Edderley seemed a little doubtful about what he ought to do, she ‘settled it in an instant. “Of course, Mr. Allison’s right, Jim,”’ she said. ‘I couldn’t en- dure it. There’s no good to be done by it, either.” And then it appeared that Ed- derley wag only glad to be per- suaded, CHAPTER TWELVE. LL this had taken some time, and the ship’s breakfast hour was long past. Edderley had some food brought by the deck steward, and we ate in his cabin. I had planned it out during my long train journey. The little cottage at Cascaes. My old friend Senhora Almeida. One good turn deserved another, and I would get it from her. At Cascaes they would be quite private, out of reach of any English, and within reach of me while I stayed in Lis- bon, which I méant to do until I could determine whether Mr. Pierce had trailed me or not. “IT feel like a Goth or a Hun bursting into a temple,” said I to Mrs. Edderley. “‘I can’t expect you really to forgive me, though I know you'll pretend to. It’s a shame to spoil your trip to the Fortunate Islands. But I’m afraid it must be given up.” . She said she quite saw that, and that I was neither Goth nor Hun, but a friendly Englishman, that forgiveness was not the word but gratitude was—and a lot of other things to put me at ease in what Was a very delicate situation. “Well,” I said, “I can’t send you to anything so fine as the For- tunate Islands, but if you’ll agree to my plan I think you will be pretty well placed and quite safe. Do you know Lisbon, Edderley?’’ “Never set foot in the place till last night,” he answered. “Well, round the corner at the mouth of the Tagus, 10 or 15 miles down, there’s a little place called Cascaes. I’m going to take you to Cascaes and introduce you to a friend of mine, the Senhora Almeida. I made her acquaint- ance about 18 months ago. needn’t tell you the circumstances. Oh, no,” I said to Mrs.. Edderley, ‘nothing romantic. She’s an old lady with a family. But she will do anything in the world to oblige me, even to concealing fugitives. In fact, that’s quite in the atmos- phere here. Senhora Almeida has a villa at Cascaes, or a little way inland from it, where you can stay till I fetch you away. You may be horrified by her taste in architec- ture, which is florid—though that’s in the atmosphere also. But you'll be delighted with the Sen- hora. I think her broken English is absolutely delightful. agree?” Edderley looked at his wife. “Of course,’’ she said. ‘‘We’re absolutely in your hands, Mr. Al- lison. If you think your friend will receive us “Yes—and make you free of everything she has, including her garage and its contents in case of need. ‘You need not worry about that.’’ a “Splendid, Allison,’’ said Edder- ley. ‘‘But it’s an extraordinary thing that you should catth us here and have a refuge all pre- pared for us.

Prob- na herri fed i Took. ty figowds: . os * J ably most of the ship’s company were dressing for dinner. The captain appeared from his quarters on the boat deck and took position on the bridge. Whis- tles were blown. A few laborers appeared on the quay and handled the mooring ropes at the orders of officers standing in various parts of the ship—all the symp- toms of immediate departure. The gendarme and his compan- fon were shepherded down the gangway, reluctant to leave. The gangway was pulled ashore, and the door in the ship’s side banged fast. The Andalusian hegan to edge away from the quay. I did not move until the dock- ers had been reabsorbed into the landscape, the few curious who had watched the ship maneuver- ing into the river had turned back, and the gendarme and his com- panion walked silently toward the guardroom. There was a special reason why I did not wish to be seen by the Englishman. When the coast was quite clear I walked out and took a tram to the city, feeling a little elated over the checkmating of smart Mr. Pierce. At the Rocio square I got off and entered the restaurant of the ‘ho- tel, intending to dine, to telephone to Edderley at Senhora Almeida’s, and to catch the night train, I had handed my case to a por- ter, been shown to a table, taken my seat and ordered my dinner, when a man came into the room and was brought up-to the table and placed opposite me. It was the Englishman who half an hour before had stepped down the gangway. of the Andalusian, whom I was anxious to avoid because three days before I had caught a glimpse of his face as he passed my garden gate at Woodbury. He gave his bowler hat to the waiter who had ushered him, sat down and looked across to me. “Good evening,” said he. “You don’t mind?’”’ ee CHAPTER FOURTEEN. DID “mind” very strongly. Whatever is meant by the sen- sation of the heart sinking into the boots I experienced—a feeling part dismay and part rage at my inability to shake off Mr. Pierce. No fear for myself entered into the feeling. Mr. Pierce was quite innocuous to me. But I had meant to shake him off—and here, in the person of his minion, he hung on to me from hour to hour. I said: ‘‘Not at all,” in a tone of bored indifference, and turned to the card— it was the only refuge. Then an idea came, I called a waiter and asked for a newspaper. He brought O Mundo of that morning, asked if he should send ‘out for an evening paper, but I said, no, this would do. The trans- action gave me time to recover my temper. From behind the paper I glanced at my opposite number, who evidently did not speak Portuguese and was order- ing his dinner by pointing at the card. He took no notice of me, except to look rather cross when he caught my supercilious eye. It dawned on me suddenly that this man, who had watched my windows at Woodbury and come to Lisbon in search of me, had never seen me, did not know me from Adam, as the saying is, that his presence in the restaurant was an accident, and his seat at my table the fruit of the ingenious idea of the headwaiter—that he would put two Englishmen to- gether! I said nothing to him while we both took the edges off our appe- tites. difference. It might make a very great difference indeed if I could entice him to talk—I might get ‘some hint of Mr. Pierce’s methods and intentions. The queer little. orchestra on a low platform at the end of the room gave the opening. It had played some popular tune of the day—I think it was called ‘‘Valen- cia’’—with a curious effect. I should never have believed that three mandolins and a= piano could produce such orchestral effects. “Not much like an English hotel band,” I said. “Oh, are you English?” he ex- ‘ claimed.’ ‘ “First I “thought’ ‘you ‘ Were, andthe? wier you spoke’ to “‘the waftet EF ¢Hdught you' weten’t. ‘ ‘No—I' never heard ‘anything: ex- actly like that.

There are lots of inter- esting things in Lisbon. You ought to see * “Yes, I dare say. ' No doubt. But the interesting thing I want to see does not appear to be in Lisbon. Lord knows where it is.” He looked rather whimsical as he said this. “What is it?’ said I, in the Same vein. “Buried treastre or an honest man?” “I don’t know whether the man’s honest, as I’ve never seen him in my life; and I don’t know what he’s done with the treasure. But you’re right to this extent— that I’m looking for a man and a treasure. Do you know Lisbon at all well?’”’ “Oh,” said I, “only just.

Of course, not knowing the language makes it difficult,” said he; “but they struck me as being the last word in stupidity.’’ I took a long time over my next drink, considering. *‘T expect,”’ said I, ‘‘we English are a bit spoiled, you know, with our Scotland Yard, and our model policemen whom every one likes, and our freedom from crime,” “Perhaps, perhaps,”’ said _ he. ‘ What does one drink in Lisbon? Water unsafe?’’ “‘No—they say not. But you never know. If one does not want to spend like Croesus, one drinks the wine of the country. This Granjo is quite good. Try it.’’ The man drank of my wine and himself ordered a bottle. “Not been in England lately?” he asked. “Not for #ome little time,’ I re- plied. “‘Ah—then I suppose you’ve not heard the latest developments in the Bardolph case?” If he had known all about me, he could not have lit upon a more awkward question. I look puzzled. “Bardolph?” said I. “What’s a Bardolph «case? It sounds like something out of Shakespeare.”’ “It’s too long to explain. I thought you might have seen something in the papers. Bar- dolph, the financier, was thought to have committed suicide, but now they say he was murdered— and everybody who could possibly know anything about it is miss- that won’t last long,” I assured him. “That’s where the efficiency of our police will come in. They solve all the murder mysteries in the long rin. But— it just occurs to me: you aren’t in the police service, by any chance?’’ “Me! Good Lord!” he cried. “‘No, I’m jn business.

In fact, it’s a work of art. We want to get the treasure back without putting the matter into the hands of the police. If we get the treasure we say nothing about his conduct. But if he doesn’t disgorge, I’m afraid he’s in for a bad time, sooner or later. I thought I had him on a ship this evening, but the pea under the thimble is stationary compared with this gentleman, so I suppose I shall have to go back to Eng- land without him or’the treasure either. However, I shall clear to- morrow or next day. Now what about a smoke?” “Let’s go out on the square and have our coffee,” said I, jumping up. I simply could not sit still. The last remarks of my companion had created wild excitement in my mind. Obviously I had been at- terly misled into the idea that he was an emissary of Pierce. He had no connection with the police, He was not even after Edderley. He probably knew nhothing more of Edderley than he had read in the newspapers. The Englishman who had left England a few days ago was my- self. The ‘‘treasure”’ I was gup- posed to have purloined was Miss Mellon. The fellow was all at sea in Lisbon, knowing no Portuguese, and he had fastened on to the first Englishman he met to relieve his overcharged feelings! ... It seemed fantastic—another bit of miraculous luck. His ‘‘firm’’ was, of course, Bal- ter. The girl had evidently been tracked down to Woodbury, and possibly to my house. There had been suspicion about Wilby’s mid- night departure, and they had made inquiries in Hull, but found no Adelaide Mellon there. It was for Balter that somebody had been bribed to tap the telephone wire and been mystified by the conversation about a. picture.

A Quaint Senate Custom! Continued from Page 3. that was not a pretty thing to do. Partisan politics of a different sort entered into the next great fight over a nomination. . Presi- dent Cleveland much desired to -honor the New York bar when a vacancy on the Court had to be filled, and so he sent in the name of William B. Hornblower, one of the foremost men in that State. David B. Hill was in the Senate and he hatecd Hornblower because he had as a member of a commit- tee df thé New ‘York Bar Asgoclid-' ' -tion uncovered fraud in the office . of the board of State canvassers while Hill was governor and had recommended impeachment of the deputy attorney general, Isaac H. Maynard, who was Hill’s right- hand man. So as a member of the judiciary committee he held up the nomination and finally de- feated it. Hornblower asked Cleveland to withdraw his name, but that Grover refused to do. Then Wheeler H. Peckham was nominated, and because he had not been consulted, Hill invoked senatorial courtesy and defeated confirmation. This led Senator William FE. Chandler, of New Hampshire, to gibe at Cleveland. He boasted in the Senate that the President could send no name to the Senate that it would con- firm. When this reached the President’s ears he blurted out in his anger: “I'll name a man to- morrow whom the Senate will con- firm unanimously and for whom that. pestiferous wasp will himself be compelled to vote.” And he sent in the name of Senator Ed- ward Douglass White. of Louisi- ana, the second Confederate to be named to the bench, and he was unanimously confirmed without so much as a reference to the judiciary committee, New England, always so hard to please over judiciary appoint- ments, rose up in her might over the appointment of Louis D. Bran- deis by Woodrow Wilson, That is an epic case. The main objec- tions to Mr. Brandeis seemed to have been, first, that he is a Jew; second, that he had been success- ful in unearthing fraud; third, that he had been professionally successful; fourth, that he had taken cases for the public with- out fee; fifth, that rather than be hampered in his public activities he had paid his own law firm $25,- 000 as a recompense for a fee he had declined. All the other ob- jections were «just.as serious, ag;' these, and not more SQ. i .' va4'*e? William H. Taft, former Presi- dent of the United States; Simeon E. Baldwin, former Governor of Connecticut; Joseph Choate, for- mer Ambassador to England; Eli- hu Root, former Secretary of State; Francis Rawle and Moor- field Story, all elder statesmen of the Republican party except Bald- win, sent this protest to the Sen- ate: “The undersigned feel un- der the painful duty to say to you that, in their opinion, taking into view the reputation, character and professional career of Mr. Loui@ D. Brandeis, he is not a fit persot to be a member of the Supreme Court of the United States.’’ One wonders, as he reads this, *“‘Who is fit to be on the bench?”’ Also, “What did Chief Justice Taft think of the distinguished justice who sat next to him for so many years, and whose brilliant opinions are the delight of the bar all over the country?” Jastice Brandeis should have been born an Irishman. His nomination hung up in the Senate for five months and then was confirmed, 47 to 22.

Finally ste came up the several steps to the little red and gold salle d’attente, where I sat hoping that some- thing of the sort would happen, and as I exclaimed “Lucy!” sho exclaimed, “George!” and in uni- son we said, “You? in Paris? Marvelous!” For Lucy was a darling, at least a species of darling, and although she was not and never will be my darling, a fact which is doubtless all for the best, I was none the less delighted to see her wise blue eyes and her rose leaf and porce- lain bit of face again after two whole years of forgetting her existence. She had on a slim, wine-colored dress, with a hat of the same shade, cupping her yellow hair, and I remembered that she always did do more with pin- money wardrobe than her rivals could with all the haute couture in the world. We waited until we saw some people leave the so-called ladies’ bar and then squeezed our way in through an atmosphere burdened with perfumes and pretty scan- dals to a small table, a plate of potato chips and two bubbling champagne cocktails. I began to realize that with a grain of prophetic sense I would have known five years ago that. Lucy Sackett would end up doing the American thing in Paris. Yes, it was inevitable, predes- tined as the end of the flapper era and the day when all those gay little sinners were busy rubbing off most of their rouge, making their boy friends behave and try- ing to acquire,at least the aspect of decorum. But Lucy was either too far gone or too honest even to try it. She knew it was harder to unlearn things than to learn them. and she had learned how to smoke, drink, be the life of a party and talk about anything and everything too well at the age of 17 to be able to forget it all calm- ly at the age of 22. Tom Crosby, who generally had her under his arm on his way from one New York night club to another in that disgraceful period, used to say: ‘“‘Lucy’s my girl. She sticks till the sun comes up.” One night in Parker’s on Fifty- second street some sly lad added, as if with a special knowledge, “Yes, and then some. Eh, Tom?” Tom Crosty knocked him across two tables She has the benefit of the doubt as far as I am con- cerned. I’m certain she and Tom Crosby had never said two love words to edch other in their lives. That she liked Tom’s parties and he liked her gayety was explana- tion enough for me. She was out to give and receive a good time, and she wasn’t out for anything else. And so, reasonably certain that she had little or nothing, I pinned her down. “Just what do you live on in Paris, Lucy, besides potato chips and cocktails?” “Oh, I’ve got a job,” she said, and she didn’t smile either. I noticed a faint line or two in that shell-smooth. faee. Poor child! I squeezed her fingers and she smiled. ‘‘Well, if you don’t be- lieve it, I can buy you anything in Paris from a top hat to a Ninon silk robe de nuit at about half the price you’d pay. You remem- ber Mrs. Coates? She has a buy- ing agency over here and I’m junior member of the firm.”’ But I didn’t feel like laughing at all. I was thinking of Lucy Sackett at seventeen, racing off to parties at Princeton, New Haven, Williamstown, running out to Southampton house parties, yachting cruises, like a young millionairess of the blood, the flapper of flappers in the day of flapperdom. She could have mar- ried a dozen times if she had quit when the rest did and let the Tom Crosby sort of thing go. L, wn SACKETT, looking for T was all over now. Lucy was the answer to what became of the flappers, at least many of them. They are all over Paris. They were all about us in the ladies’ bar of the Ritz trying to pretend that life goes on forever in the same tempo and without change. Lucy nodded to Half the people in the room. A pretty, dark head in a tight lavender felt bent dowa to our table, a pair of big, young, tired gray eyes. “Lucy, you quit- ter!’ She gave Lacy a friendly ‘has a line on the business.

Left us flat at a mere 4 o’clock!”’ “IT had a ~obreakfast engage- ment,” said Lucy. “This is George Lockwood you are talking to, Lysa. He likes all kinds of peo- ple;. so be yourself. This in- truder is Lysa Edwards, George. Go on over to your breathless sophomore, Lysa. We’re reminisc- ing.” “How painful!” said Lysa. “In Paris one so seldom remembers even yesterday. But if you must, what do you think of your friend — Tom Crosby’s scheduled marriage to Nathalie Scoville? There was a note about it in the Herald. Paris trosseau, wedding at. St. Bartholomew's, the whole show for Nathalie of course. I always knew Tom would be grabbed up any time he could stay sober for a week. Perhaps that’s the rea- son he so seldom did. Au ‘voir, crazy.”’ “Yes,” said Lucy to me care- lessly, “‘Tom’s fiancee has re- formed him, they say. She and her mother are due in Paris for the trousseau, and Mrs. Coates With all their money they ought to spend a lot.’’ I was giad to see that Lysa’s news meant no more to Lucy than a profit on the trousseau. I knew the Seovilles, especially Mrs. Sco- ville. She was famous for per- manently golden hair and tre- mendous hats, and her enemies called her the Queen of Beasts. If Tom Crosby wanted to enter that den, it was his business. May- be it was business. As a director of the business which Tom had inherited and of which he was nominal president, I knew better than others its precarious posi- tion and the extent to which his fortunes were involved. But I had rated him above a money marriage. I’d prefer he’d remain a drunk. At our funcheon table, pleasant- ly overlooking the courtyard gar- den, Lucy was at her best. This happened at Zelli’s and that at Josephine Baker’s, and somebody said something while they were all having onion soup in the mar- ket at the disillusioning hour of 6 in the morning. She talked un- til I grew suspicious and won- dered if she were talking only so that I would have no chance to. Finally I knew it. She gave up and sighed. “All right, George,’’ she said. go ahead and lecture me. I know you’re dying to.” Frankly, I was. She was a great temptation to serious- minded people. [I told her she ought to use that keen little yel- low head of hers to some purpose, collect as much dignity and Conti- nental manner as she could and then go home. I felt that at least one of the sleek scions of weaith who were once her slaves would return to the shrine long enough to ,marry. her, Possibly, _how- ever, none of them would. Pos- sibly it was too late for such ad- vice, and with the doubt came the conviction that it was too late. I began to wonder who was to blame and decided that Tom Crosby was. He was older and must have realized the changing _ hight, times. He should not have per- mitted her te keep it up. But if he did not know enough to save himself-—that was even a greater mystery. How could a _ fellow with as many qualities of taste, breeding, intelligence, wit in his head and gs much steel in his knee-grip and polo forearm be willing to dilute it all to such an extent with the semipoisonous contents of his highball glass? What right had he to reform and marry now when it was too late for Lucy to do the same? *“You know, Lucy,’ I said, “I always took it for granted that you would marry Tom in the end, if any one did. Why didn’t you?’”’ Apparently the idea was ridicu- lous; for Lucy, sipping her black coffee, half choked and then burst out laughing. She couldn’t stop laughing, covering her face with her hands, and-her slim body in that wine-colored dress fairly shuddering with glee. . e a o ONG after I remembered and wondered about that moment. I am not particularly gifted in the penetration of feminine psychol- ogy. Laughter. meant laughter to me, especially such abandoned ° laughter, and it did not occur to me that analysis might reveal something besides mirth in that tear which had stood for an in- stant round and cloudy on the back of Lucy Sackett’s hand. In fact, for three days I did not even see Lucy Sackett, al- though I did see the Scovilles. The hotel news reported them at the Claridge and I spotted them first across the crowded front room of Rumpelmeyer’s famous palace of sweets in the Rue Rivoli. There was the timeless tawny glory of the old lioness under a wide hat’ and Nathalie’s black felt helmet of a thing which became the mask of her frozen little features very well. Nathalie was the frontis- piece of Vogue. I liked her. I stopped long enough to invite them to tea Sunday afternoon and to say something banal about Nathalie’s approaching marriage. ‘We've been hearing other good news about Tom these days, too.”’ Mrs. Scoville beamed. ‘Yes, in- deed. It’s all a matter of the proper influences. But you shall see for yourself because he’s com- ing over in a few days. Poor dear, he wanted so badly to come with us, but some important busi- ness thing came up. So he lands next Thursday.” I went directly to the Ritz to find Lucy and report the arrival of her prospective clients. She wasn’t there. She wasn’t any- where apparently. I gave her up and went out for myself that finding amusement with the gaudy caricature of itself which Paris offers to most Ameri- cans as a plaything. I pretend to no finer perception than the rest and emerged about 2 in the morn- ing from Zelli’s with an astonish- ing feeling of exhilaration and a’ S charming little companion, who within the space of an hour or so had become so attached to me that she had all sorts of plans for our future. Perhaps the romantic mood suggested Casbeck to me. It was a tiny Russian rendezvous where a woman with cloudy eyes sings so low and beautifully that you can hear in your mind the slow wash of heavy, black water against the banks of the Dnieper. It may be too bad that we never arrived. One never knows how much romance one misses. But our taxicab took us.no farther than the Place de Clichy. We halted in a swirl of traffic before a gendarme who was stand- ing, like a blue statue, with his white club. held aloft. And then through the window of the cab halted alongside ours I saw a face, a face which surprised me almost to the point of collapse and at least to the point of com- plete sobriety. ~ I think the conviction that l was enjoying a champagne vision scared all of the exhilaration out of me, but the sight of Tom Crosby in a taxicab in the Place de Clichy when, according to his fiancee, he should be just about leaving New York harbor, struck me as pure hallucination. But it was Tom. I was sure of that. The lock of brown hair falling down over his forehead and the general dishev- elment with which even a drink or two invariably affected his otherwise groomed person were too characteristic and real for anything less than fact. I strained forward to see and received for my pains, like a right hook following a deft lead, my sec- ond jolt within the minute; for the features I saw faintly back in the dim interior of that cab was not the anticipated little mask of Nathalie Scoville—it was the singularly grim and determined face of one Lucy Sackett. I sat back plunk in the seat, to the utter disgust of my playmate du soir, very sober and quiet with my own thoughts. Tom _ and Lucyt Some other people’s af- fairs have always interested me far more than my own and I was suddenly caught off base with the realization that a poignant, even tragic, little situation had lain all this time in the heart of a rela- tionship which I had assumed to be casual as the friendship of a couple of schoolboys. It°hurts me because I could foresee the pain of it would be Lucy’s and because, if the truth were admitted. I felt a yearn inside over such a bad young spendthrift of life who could grin and bear it so pret- tily now that the time had come to pay up. (33 \ A ‘¥ | c ‘e , a The traffic whistle blew. The. absurd, high-pitched motor horas tooted. I had our driver follow their cab to the door of Florence’s —Florence’s, where the blackface jazz is loudest and the closing hour, if any, latest.

An arched gateway finally permitted us entry through a wide © facade and into a half real, tree- shaded court filled with the soft music of an orchestra an murmur of many people seat the small tables, the Chatea Madrid. Mrs. Scoville impressed the maitre d’hotel to the point giving us an excellent table. Nathalie had not come with us, but would taxi out later, and, with my permission, would bring a lit- tle friend. “I didn’t think Nathalie, dear child, had the character to do it,’’ she said. ‘‘He was headed for the gutter, as, of course, you know, and when I saw what an influence Nathalie had upon him I felt it my duty not to oppose the match. He can. thank her that he reform- ed in time to save his -fortune from some clique of swindlers or a scheming woman.

We saw Yes, I knew. remark greater Nathalie herself just then weay- ing her way among the tabiés on her way to join us. Her “‘littte friend’’ wag none other than my ewn little friend, Lucy Sackett, a fact which surprised me very much until I remembered her job. Coates & Sackett had apparently landed the Scoville trousseau busi- ness. Mrs. Scoville explained in vio- lent whispers as they approached. “She knows the shops and how much one sltould pay,” she said. ‘“‘Whatever she used to be in New York, and I believe she was rather too well known there, she is very useful.in Paris. That is all Nathalie cafes.’’ : No doubt that was all Nathalie cared, but a sharp, vivid little picture jumped into my mind of Lucy picking out a trousseau for Tom Crosby’s bride. I didn’t like to think of it. _ Lucy looked sidewise at me, and, during the placing of chairs, murmured, “I hear you’ve been looking for me.” “But I'd have to become a bartender to have a chance of finding you.’’ I said, adding aloud, because I wanted to punish her a bit for not having confided to me about Tom. “I happened to glimpse you in a taxicab last Friday night in the Place de Clichy.” Lucy shot me a quick, com- manding glance, and her lips tightened. The Scovilles did not observe it. “So old Tom is landing on Thursday,’’ I remarked, apparent- ly out of an innocent reflection, and immediately received under ‘., the) table a ‘sharp kick’ on the Tom Crosby hasta’ him across two tables. shinboue..I-was the madder be-. cause Lucy was smiling sweetly the while and asking if she might sip my porto. It did not occur to me to wonder how Lucy could have reached me with a kick from where she aat. Nathalie was opposite. Nevertheless. I blamed Lucy and, leaning toward her, said, “‘We shall hardly recognize him in these regenerate days, shall we?’’ “So you know Mr. Crosby, too, my dear?’”’ asked Mrs. Scoville. Her eyes above her teacup nar- rowed, and I’ knew I’d said too much, “He had so many friends.” Her implication was plain and Lucy sat up, straight and taut. She was, to my knowledge, the verbal match of any lioness in the world. I feared the worst. “*Yes,’’ she said, “I used to take him home nights when he’d for- gotten where he lived.” _ Nathalie smiled. Only Natha- lie’s lips ever smiled, but she had: a sense of propriety. I began to like Nathalie better all the time. “Don’t be silly, mother,” she said. “You know Lucy was one of Tom’s intimates.” But the lioness refused to re- treat. “At any rate,” she said, “I amp sure you were not one of those intimates of his who did ¢o mtich to ruin his life.” ~

On the way to our taxicab she lingered behind and took my arm. “Would you deliver a message for me, Mr. ’ Lockwood? Tell Tom that I would not mind his secret presence in _ Paris so much if he did not make it so conspicuous.’’ Eventually I recovered my breath. So Nathalie knew. Well, she was a shrewd young lady. ‘The puzzle to me was what a shrewd and attractive young lady with plenty of money of her own could want with Tom Crosby.

Lucy had been so gay and pleasant coming in from the Bois that, after giving the Rue Jules Janin number of her pension as our destination, I sat back in the cab prepared -to hear an amusing version of Tom Crosby’s appearing in Paris and preferring the company of his blithe little former drinking companion to that of his reformer fiancee. , I heard something quite differ- rent. “I’m not going to Passy, Mr. . ; George Lockwood,” said Lucy. My surprised glance found her flushed and her eyes full of anger which she had evi- dentiy saved up until we were ’ alone. “Suppose you take me to Harry’s New York Bar instead. That’s where I belong.” Then it ' Came out with a rush. “You must have been afraid, George, that your beloved ScoviHes wouldn’t fiftd out their lamb was here.

Well, they can ‘have Tom Crosby for all I care. I don’t want him. I hope I may never set eyes upon him again. Tom Crosby can go——” “Lucy!” I stepped her, for she Was near to tears. “You don’t even mean what you’re saying. You know very well that an hour of your happiness is more valuable te me than years of it for all the Scovilles in the world. The thing is, you can’t get an hour of happi- ness with Tom. They would all be hours of torment now. You and Tom ruin each other. You've proved that by four years in New York and by one night in Paris. _ Yeu two are done. He’s found his salvation now and all you can do is find another of your own. And as for my giving his presence away to the Scovilles, Nathalie knew it before I’d said a word.’’ ‘She wouldn’t have,’’ said Lucy. “She'd told me she was going to Les Ambassadeurs with some peo- ple from Philadelphia. I took him there. She saw Tom across the dance floor. Why didn’t she come and get him? It would be so much easier—for me. Nathalie is all right, I guess.” ‘All right or not,’’ I said, ‘“‘she is the one who, according to re- port, has done for Tom what you and I and all his other friends never did. We didn’t even try.” **At least,’’ said Lucy, pausing to brush the anger from her face and smiling a smile too old for 22, a kind of man’s smile when he sees his last margin go, or when the army surgeon tells him he is done for. ‘‘At least,’ she repeated, “we didn’t succeed.

Will you please take me to Harry’s New York Bar now?” _ * oe a EFORE we arrived there Lucy weakened. Perhaps she ex- pected me to say that love was the only thing which mattered and that she ought to run off and marry Tom if she could. But love is not the only thing which matters and I knew them both too well not to foresee their dismal end together. They would fail first; then she would lose respect; then bitterness, and Tom, in self- defense, would be bitter too. I felt very low that evening and about 11 surrendered to it and went home to my hotel, the d@’Iema, not very far from the Eteile.

I felt pretty sure who he was. ~ The concierge voice dropped. ‘Pardon, m’sier, the gentleman seems to be, as you would say, intoxicant perhaps.” “Send the gentleman up never- theless,” I said. “If he can’t walk, carry him.” Of course he was not “intoxi- cant” in the least, although he had undoubtedly had a drink. I often wondered how much of Tom Crosby’s reputation arose from his unfortunate aspect of in- ebriety coincident with his first sip—that wagrant lock of hair.

Somehow, in spite of the hard, lean health to which his improved habits had restored him, he seemed in a way tired and defeated. One of his hands lay graphically ‘relaxed and empty on the counterpane. “I suppose you came to _ talk about the business, Tom, ”’ I said, tossing him one of the cables I had just received. He glanced at it without in- terest and then passed it back to me. ‘“Can’t help it, George. I did my best for the firm the last two years, but it was too late. They had no confidence in me, and this explains why the direc- tors wanted me to take a vaca- tion. As one of them, you will have to forget friendship and do whatever you think best for everybody. It may even be best for me. I came here, however, to talk about something much more important than the fate of Crosby & Co.”’ “Such as——” “Such as what happens to— Lucy.” “Lucy!” I said. “You mean Lucy Sackett?” For 1 knew now what she meant by my having to help her. “‘What have you got to do with her? I thought you were going to marry Nathalie ville.” “Oh, I am—I am,” he muttered impatiently. “I’ll marry anybody who is foolish enough to want me—as long as Lucy doesn’t.” “What!” I was genuinely as- tonished that what I had assumed to be a sort of tender regret or hurt of conscience over Lucy on Tom's part, a feeling for which I had liked him the better, had burned till its propertions were very near a fame of love. It was impossible. It would ruin them. I knew it and Lucy knew it, and ge she had sent him te me.

She's a goner.”’ * = * a 颥 TOOK Lucy Sackett on her first wild party, George.” Tom was too much in earnest just then for me to be able to head him off. ‘“‘I’ll admit I didn’t love her,” he went on, “or anybody or anything but alcohol those years. But the day I quit the stuff—not that I became a never-touch-a- dropper—but the day I quit was the day Lucy sailed for Paris.” “Then you fell in love with Nathalie.”” I was abrupt as pos- sible. “There is no excuse for me,”’ said Tom. “I thought I did. The Scovilles took me up when every- body else in town turned me down as a hopeless drunk, although I hadn’t been that way for months. My pride came into it. I could show them all that I was not h a down-and-outer that I couldn’t marry the girl they were all after, the famous Nathalie Scoville. Of course, there was something miss- ing between us always——” “Yes?”’ I wanted to hear the whole thing now. “It didn’t seem to worry Na- thalie, though. Perhaps the rea- son it worried me was that I knew what the matter was. It was Lucy. Being with Nathalte only made me think of Lucy and re- member how she‘d trekked with me through all that muck, watch- ing out for me as well as she could. Finally I tried to break the engagement, and that’s where Nathalie’s mother came in. They wouldn’t even consider a _ post- ponement. But when they came to Paris, I sailed the next day on a faster boat. I had to see Lucy before I went through with it.” “Well, you saw her and got drunk with her again,’’ I said brutally. ‘“Wasn’t that emeugh? You admit she turned you down.

The bang of the door which Tom had slammed behind him rang in my ears for hours. The next morning I caught the Imperial Airways plane at Le Bourget and left Paris and other people’s troubles behind me in a haze of lavender and gold which was too beautiful to admit of their existence. I had friends in London and might have enjoyed it. But some- how I didn’t. The Embassy Club failed to amuse me, and the grey- hound races in pursuit of a tin rabbit struck me as absurd. The problem of which of half a dozen underfed dogs was the fastest was little to me compared to the en- grossing question of what the Sco- villes were going to get out of it, although the two were equally * none of my business. The second question, neverthe- less, worried me finally into- dis- patching an urgent cable to a very well-informed acquaintance with offices in Wall street, New York, giving my Paris address for re- turn. I was going back to Paris. I’d made up my mind to that. And all the while that big plane drummed its way from Croydon over the Channel to Le Bourget next day I kept thinking of all the little things which had worked together to form the inquiry — I had expressed in that ca- le. No answer had arrived, how- ever. For a few minutes I was too disappointed to pay attention to the two messages which the concierge did find in my box. One of them was an invitation to dine that evening with the Scovilles at Les Ambassadeurs. The other, penciled vaguely on a hotel en- velope, was from Lucy. It said: “Please come at once, George. I still need a little more help.” I was at Lucy’s pension in fif- teen minutes, and she sent down word for me to come straight up. Three simple dinner dresses lay spread out on the bed and she said at once, “I just wanted you to tell me which of these to wear, George. Sit down and have a eigarette.”’ “De you mean to tell me.’ I was almost angry, “‘you dragged me all the way to Passy just to decide your costume for the eve- “Of course, darling,” Lucy smiled. But then she bit her lip and her chin lost its firmness for an instant. “You see, George, it’s rather important. I’m going on a wild party with Tom Crosby and it’s very special. It’s our last.’’ - She had turned her back and I waited entil she wanted to look at me again. “What do you mean, Lucy?” | “Well, tomorrow's Thursday, jon’t 117 He's going to her. Don’t you understand? He’s going to his fiancee. He promised me he ning?” “You mean you made him, Lucy?” “Yes,” she said, “but he made Me promise him tonight in ex- change. So we could end up ag we began, you see.” I must tell about those two that night as though I were looking over their shoulders, and it will be clear in the end how I knew, The fact is that, dressed in a hurry, I had gone downstairs at the d’Iena to receive in eager fin- gers a cable just arrived from New York at about the very mo- ment Tom Crosby was putting Lucy into a cab in the.still shad- ows of the Rue Jules Janin. At Zelli’s they danced. Lucy was glad, when a spotlight played upon her, that she had chosen her white and silver. Tom drank & toast to her, and some other peo- ple begged them to join their party. “The real thing here,’’ said Tom, and again she looked at im closely, as if he were a stranger, and she had to discover his type. The waiter shook their champagne bottle in the bucket meaningly. It was empty. “‘Let’s go,’’ said Lucy. can’t stand it, Tom.”’ “What?” he asked. : “Oh, I mean here,’’ she said quickly. “What do you think? Let’s go to Florence’s. That's al- ways best.’ Two adjoining rooms, no larger than New York apartment living ‘rooms, a 10 by 12 dance floor, a black-face jazz orchestra with drums, trombone, saxophone, husky black boys recruited from Harlem and dressed in dinner jackets shouting some white man’s raucous ballad at the top of their strained voices. Hour after hour went by, a pro- cession of champagne bottles. . “Lucy, you’re tight. Your halt is all crazy.” ‘Who cares?” said Luey. “Aren’t we all tight? Did you kiss me while we were dancing, Tom?” : “T think so. We ought to mak sure. ‘The place is thinning out."4 They danced again and madé sure, danced easily and smoothly, because they had the entire floor, ‘‘We're the last ones here; Lucy.” . At their table Tom poured full glasses. “Well, it’s all over, then, Lucy. Pick up your glass, like a good fellow. If I tried to say any< thing, I’d bawl. Come on, little soldier. Every drop for our last.” Lucy touched his glass with hers, but she didn’t drink. The thin stem slipped from her fingers and the full glass crashed to the floor, a broad, wet splotch full of shining bits of broken glass. Tom Crosby stared at her @ moment. “Did you do that on purpose, Lucy?” Then his own glass, hurled as though it were a baseball and trailing a stream of sparkling golden drops, splintered to pieces against the opposite wall, “Yes,” he said, “that telle the story better.” There was no protest. What were a couple of broken glasses to Florence’s? By gesture and six words of Princeton French Tom Crosby told the taxicab driver to find the highest hill in Paris, and soon the puffing, grinding little five-horse< power motor was dragging them up through the deserted streets and dark, forbidding alleys of the Butte de Montmartre. They came to a small open square finally, and Tom shouted, “Ici! This is the place where we say g00d-bys Lucy. Come on. Let’s get out, He'll wait.”’ “Yes,” she said, .‘“‘because I want you to let me go home by myself, Tom.”’ They stood in that empty little place holding each other's hands, unable to talk. The mijlion tiny lights of Paris lay below them im a transparent nether firmament of gray.. A lMne of light stretched along the east. ‘ “You don’t seem tight now, Tom,’’ she said. There was no ing really to say. “No,” he agreed. “You haven't been all evening, have you? Why not?” “Because I poured all the stuff in the ice bucket when you were not looking, Lucy.” After a pause she said, ‘It’s a@ wonder the ice bucket didn’t over- flow. So did I. Oh, please iet me go now, Tom.’’ A weak, spreading daylight, minutes later, found them still clinging together, whispering frantically things which made no sense before the descending blade of separation, with a swift blow, should make their breath, their eyes, their faces into nothing but memories. The horn of the wait- ing taxicab tooted impatiently. Se Tem and Lucy paid out thei¢ parte while I went to dinner with the Sceovilles and with the key te Continued on Page 16, Colume 2 v4? “It’s —I

In plac- g it all on the record here, I Only wish to correct a few of the fhany popular misconceptions @bout song writing. ‘ Often I am given to understand that composing a song is an easy affair.

If a mposer’s endowment is great nough, the song is made to sound if it were truly inspired. * . * _ FTER all, making music is actually little else than a mat- ér of invention. ® write is only my inventiveness, ded and abetted by emotion. I mbine what I know of music , I see a piece of arger composition, like a con- rto, [I have to take it piece by then construct it so er the sun,”’ it is always possi- to invent something original. [fhe song writer takes an idea and ds his own individuality to it; @ merely uses his capacity for yention in arranging bars his jwn way.

Re- What causes me. imitate a trumpet al- most perfectly and to whistle very beauti- fully. Just as a creator of fiction or of poetry, a composer of music smells symphonic ideas in every fact. To me they are repre- sented by both ab- stract and concrete ideas. Though I am a great lover of na- ture, none of my music comes from viewing detached scenes, no mat- ter how beautiful or “inspiring” they may be, most of my ideas arise from contact with people, from. personalities and emotions of men and women I meet. The idea for the ‘“‘Rhapsody in Blue,’”’ for example, came to me quite suddenly. The vivid pan- orama of American life swept through my mind—its feverish- ness, its vulgarity, its welter of love, marriage and divorce, and its basic solidity in the character of the people. All of the emo- tional reactions excited by con- templating the American scene, with all its mixtures of races and drinks, were stuffed into the first outline of the rhapsody, with a dominant theme derived from the fashionable “‘blue’”’ or melancholy rhythm. I really prefer writing serious music. <A serious composition is either a success or a failure be- cause of what the composer does to it. I may write a good score for a musical comedy, but if the book or cast is poor my work registers a flop. A symphony, on the other hand, lives or dies ac- cording to its real worth. While popular music may be tricked very easily, serious music ,offers sO many more interesting prob- lems in construction, in orchestra- tion, in other details. For a long time—as far back ag my eighteenth year—I have wanted to work at big compositions. I am glad I can do it now. Nor will the contention of Mme. Galli-Curci that opera is old- fashioned deter me from writing my opus. fs gna epee . rain - oun F extreme importance to the concocter of tunes is his mood. Without the proper mood it is almost impossible to com- pose satisfactorily. Frequently I have to force myself into a mood. Although, to write a happy song, for example, I do not actually have to be happy, I must try to feel like one who is happy. To get into the proper frame of mind I sit at the piano and play. Thus I find myself most frequently at the piano while composing. Composing at the piano is not a good practice. But I started that way and it has become a hab- it. However, I give my mind free rein and use the piano only to try what I can hear mentally. The best method is one which will not permit anything to hold you down in any way, for it is always easier to think in a straight line without the distraction of sounds. The mind’ should be allowed to run loose, unhampered by the piano, which may be used now and then only to stimulate thought and set an idea aflame. The actual com- position must be done in the brain. Too much, however, should not be left to the memory. Sometimes, when [ think the phrase is safe in my mind, I will find that I have lost it the next day. So that when I get a phrase which I am not sure I will remem- ber the following day I set it down on paper at once. Occa- sionally I dream a composition, but rarely can I remember it when I wake. On one occasion I did get out of bed and write a song. That number, incidentally, is one of my best compositions—‘Strike Up the Band!”’ What comes first, the words or the mu- sic? Odd, how this question is the first which enters the mind of most people when the art of writing songs is un- . der discussion. In my own case most frequently the music is written first. Oft- en, however, my brother, Ira, will write the lyric first, but always in a definite rhythm. These songs are mainly of the common variety. + . os | ges the denizens of the prize ring, the song writer must al- ways keep in training. He must try to write something every day. I know that if I don’t do any writ- ing for several weeks I lose a great deal of time in catching my stride again. Hence I am always composing. My creative work is done al- most exclusively at night, and my best is achieved in the fall and winter months. A beautiful spring or summer day is least conducive to making music, for I always prefer to being out than at work. I don’t write at all in the morn- ing, for the obvious reason that I'm not awake at the time. The afternoon I devote to physical la- bor—orchestrations, piano copies, &c. At night, when othe~ people are asleep or out for a good time,. I can get absolute quiet for my composing. Not that_ perfect peace is always necessary: often I have written my tunes with peo- ple in the same room or playing cards in the next. If I find my- self in the desired mood, I can hold it until [ finish the song. “To be a song writer you must live a song writer,” a famous popular composer once remarked. I can think of no more apt dictum for those who are seriously con- templating composing music as a profession. You can’t be some- thing else—a butcher, a baker or a broker—and then suddenly oo - Continued from Page 4. well-dressed man wanted—mo- tors, well-appointed apartments, servants, everything that money could buy—and Bryan Pitts got these. He had a 21-room apart- ment in Washington, toward the heyday of his career, all the motor ears his heart desired, every lux- ury money could buy—and a cou- ple of million dollars in the bank, or in stocks and bonds, It was, in a word, a great life. .As one old Alexandrian put it, & man who knew Bryan Pitts when he was struggling for an ex- istence, “It was afar cry from Bryan’s earlier days——frem the days, for instance, when he took his lunch in a paper bag and went up an alley to eat it.’’ Now this simple little practice of going up an alley to eat lunch out of a paper bag, during the re- cess period from work, has been interpreted in various ways. One version is that this proved the stalwart saving ability of the man; that he meant to make sacrifices until he was able to squander money for high priced lunches. The other way of looking at it, and the way most Alexandrians see it, is this: Poor Bryan Pitts could afford no regular lunch, such as other fellows might eat, and so went with his frugal fare up dn alley—away from curious eyes. Though Bryan Pitt’s people were poor—that is, his immediate family—-he was connected on his maternal grandmother's side with the richest family in Alexandria: at least one of the richest, the _familz,of William, B, Soot. write a successful song. One must write, rewrite and then write again. Knowing Tin Pan Alley, living in the atmosphere-of words and music, tells the beginner what not to do. The outsider looking in will find it extremely diffit to break through to recogniti I learned to write music studying the-most successful song published. At 19 E could write a © song that sounded so much liké Jerome Kern that he wouldn’t know whether he or I had writ- ten it. But imitation can go only so fat. The young song writer may start by imitating a success- ful composer he admires, but he must break away as soon as’ he has learned the maestro’s strong points and technique. Then he must try to develop his own mu- sical personality, to bring some- thing of his own invention into his work. For some song writers it is not even absolutely essential that they know anything about music. Many of the composers with the greatest number of successes to their credit—among them Walter Donaldson and Irving Berlin— can’t read a line of music. What they have is an innate sense of melody and rhythm; all they seek is to write a simple tune that the public can easily remember. In order to write longer composi- tions, the study of musical tech- nique is indispensable. Many peo- ple say that too much study kills spontaneity in music, -but I claim that, although study may kill a small talent, it must develop a big talent. In other words, if study kills a musical endowment it deserves to be killed. I studied piano for four years, and then harmony. And I shall continue to study for a long time. Above all, the aspiring com- poser should write something every day, regardless of its length or quality. Continued writing offers greater chances for achiev- ing something original and im- portant. Perhaps the tenth—or the hundredth—song will do the trick. (Copyright, 1930.) - ‘‘He may have been poor in his earlier days,” ig the way the Alexandrians put it, ‘“‘but when he did break loose he scattered money right and left.’ Well, he did that very thing. And yet, in his spending he never stepped outside the realm of conventionality—the folks say. He didn’t stage wild parties, like some of the boys with huge sums of money to spend. He didn’t do this, he didn’t do that. ... What Bryan Pitts was, really, in the descriptive term of a wise old Alexandrian, what he was is this: A little boy playing at be- ing a big man. So here is a smattering of in- sight into a character that is al- most fictional. Bryan Pitts; true, was well known in Alexandria, as a boy; but.as a man Alexandria knows little of him. Even Wash- ington, where he plied his finan- cial trade, knows little or nothing of the man. He got to be a big figure in the F. H. Smith Co., true, but his rise in no way resembles a — Horatio Alger story. -He ‘got there, in some mysterious way, and if the old-line Alexandrians could only solve this mystery—of his rise—-they’d come pretty near telling you how he also came by his downfall. And thén, to explode the theory that he was not frugal, they tell of his first great success: The opening of a huge hotel in Wasli- ington—and invitations sent to all his old friends in Alexandria to “come on over and join the party, attend the opening ban- quet”—and of how each one whe attended was assessed $5—a ban- quet in honor of, Bryay Pitta,

The real injury done to study is when the student is alone; his book is open, but he is‘ thinking of foot- ball, or whatéver his game may be.

Those who can remember 20 years ago will remember how the football teams of the various col- leges used to go away a few days before a great contest and thns prepare for the game at a distance from what was supposed to be the disturbing element of curriculum routine. Well, it never worked out; because, with nothing to do except think of the approaching contest, their nerves were worn to a frazzle. I advise, therefore; boys and girls who wish to excel in some form of athletic sport to devote themselves with all their emergy to study, to reading, to some in- tellectual pursuit that will com- pletely absorb their minds when not actually engaged in training or in practice. And just as this applies to hun- dreds and thousands of school and college pupils, so it applies to ma- ture men and women who, en- gaged in-the actual work of life, are also interested in some form of outdoor recreation. If one en- joyy golf, tennis or other forms of sport, one enjoys them far more if one is seriously busy most of the time at something useful or important.

NOTHER poet laureate of A Kngland is numbered with the immortals of English literature im the death last week of Robert Bridges, full of years and honors. Robert Bridges was the lineal descendant in a literary geuse from Geoffrey Chaucer, who pix hundred years ago was the first English poet to be officially recognized as laureate by an Eng- lish king. The roll of poets lau- reate between Chaucer and Bridges was a noble one and adorned with such names as Ten- see and rare Ben Jonson on the oster. The leading candidate for the honor is Rudyard Kipling. This rould be a choice in which the whole wide world would heartily concur. The nomination is in the hands of the present premier, (Ramsay MacDonald. This is a - detriment to the chances of Kip- jing. Among the others who are _feiag mentioned are Henry New- bolt, Alfred Noyes and John . Masefield. America would be hard put to it if President Hoover should de- ‘ @ide to create the office of poet - Jaureate or a commission for the oet laureateship. The contest which would ensue would be as that to select the twelve greatest women. of the United States,. Certainly women candidates would be represented among the ¢ontestants. In a real sense of the word, the women poets of this countr$? rank very high.

This, he declares, is a most potent question, for it might lead to decadence or be ex- tinguished in some war of its own creation. But, writers, Dr. Millikan is not con- tent merely to ask such a ques- tion but answers it as well. He is most optimistic as to the future of the human race. He answers it in a way that all who read may understand, This book is particularly inter- esting at this time as the author is in the public press in another way as the discoverer of cosmic rays, vibrations: one hundred times more penetrating than X- rays.

Through all the vicissitudes of the war he holds his ideals of his tilancee. But war’s experience have their effect on the young man’s mind and he comés to re- gard himself as unworthy.

MULBERRY SQUARE. By Lida Larrfmore (Macrae Smith Co., Philadelphia). This is a human story of-two girls and two men with one girl in love with a man who is in love with her sister and a man who loves the sister but understands her, too. Janie loved Mulberry Square as much as she did Hugh. Kennedy, but Celia, who loved only herself, but wanted Hugh, hated Mulberry Squaré and wanted to leave it. Tom McAllister, who also had his affection for Mulberry Square, loved Celia but understood her. ‘Tragedy came stalking ‘in and in the crucible these four got a new perspective of life. : This is a story of romance and human nature written in a real- istic way without fear or favor. Miss Larrimore has etched her characters with a true pencil and has not been afraid to have them act and think as such characters would under certain. circum- stances. She has also refused to take the formula of many modern novelists and leave a moral out of her story. For it is certainly a novel with a moral which would have delighted the Victorians, yet she has handled it in a most up- to-date fashion. UNDER THE PIG-NUT TREE.

ST ae The proprietor expatiated at length on the benefits to be de- rived from sea water, but could not land them. Finally, in a last effort, he offered to. deliver “a couple of pailfuls of pure ocean water at their billets on the un- derstanding that they were to give it a fair trial, per the sponge method, and, if found satisfactory, were to pay sixpence -{12 cents) a pail for it. The offer was ac- cepted. : ' ess @ ®@ Next morning the recruits, re- freshed by the sponge bath, went down to the water front to pay their sixpences.

It puzzjed him and it would not leave him, till he enteréd his own door and removed his hat. Then he saw that the hat he had*worn was not his own, but a hat with a brim folded back on the sides and tied on top with a string that crossed it. Ha-ha! He had taken by mistake a bishop’s hat!

The sculptor would touch the clay here and there, then walk far back; then forward again. Taylor, patient, an artist of keen observation himself, silent by mood, made no comment. Then, one day, after many touches, St. Gaudens backed far away, and his face beamed his satisfaction. : “Why,’’ he said, ‘‘it’s finished!’’ » as “though it had been done by somebody else.

Sun baths should be given to all well children to keep them well and to many sick children to help make them well. When the weather permits and the sun is not too hot, arrange for the youngster to be outdoors in the — sunshine as much aS possible. Most modern children who are well can take their sun baths as part of their usual playtime. Of course, these little girls have been accustomed very gradually to playing in the. direct sunshine. Short periods of sunning were given at first, and the garments “worn exposed a less extensive area ‘of the- body. Both the time and the amount exposed were in- . creased until a coat of tan was ac- quired. That meant a change from the short-sleeved bloomer dress to the sleeveless dress with abbreviated panties, or to rom- pers, until the child was ready for > @ sun suit cut out as much as pos- sible at the neck and armholes, with very short, loose legs. A light-weight brimmed hat is worn ‘on very bright, = days to protect the eyes: Almost any woll-fitting commer- cial romper pattern can be modi- .fied for use in cutting sun suits. P says the Bureau of Home. Eco- ‘nomics of the United States De- partment ‘of Agriculture. (The bureau does not distribute pat- terns.) - As qa beginning it is well to select a pattern conforming as closely as possible to the sun suit - desired. » In the picture one little girl is wearing a-sun suit made from a Dutch romper pattern, fastened at the shoulders ipstead of down the back, The. front is cut in one piece. The crotch is slightly shaped, and the drop seat is as flat_as possible with a deep plait on each side. ~The back is cut away under, this piece except for sufficient material to keep it from pulling out... Four buttons, ar- ranged two on each side, are much . easier for.the child to manage than three, with one placed in the > center. Two roomy pockets add * to the wearer’s happiness, and leg “bands large enough to slip up to her thighs without binding add to her comfort. The fabric is a light- weight cretonne with a floral de- sign in. which the yellows, browns and dull reds of autumn are nice- ly blended: The tepmming js gol- den-brown bias tape. A. perky little s bonnet of the _-eretonne was madé to go with this. gun suit: The sides of the head- piece and the bacK were made as y ' monthe. Approaching warm weather suggests that kiddies be made ready to 5-1 asia the sunshine. . The_fabric in tiis san suit has a conventional design of tiny oranges and lemons: among green leaves. The edgea of the gar- ment and of the large pockets.are bound with orange bands. Care of Rubber Goods. (Bureau of me Department of There are two agencies which hasten materially the deteriora- tion of rubber goods—-heat and sunlight. At 70 hegrees C. (160 degrees F.) articles which would otherwise last five or. ten years are’ destroyed in three weeks or less. At higher temperatures the action is even more rapid. These facts will explain the deteriora- _tion of waterproof coats, hotwater bags, &c., which are thrown over steam radiators to-dry. sunlight rubber bands which -ordi- narily would tast four to six years have become worthless in three The - ideal storage for rubber goods when not in use is in a cool, dark place, Oil has also a serious effect on rubber.

(Department of Agriculture.) In direct. (Prom gan of Economics, artment Ja Aaricalers:} Points on Sandwich Making. — If sandwiches are wanted fre- quently for social occasions try keeping on hand some of the but- ter fillings that can be made up and kept for several days, sug- gests the Bureau of Home Eco- nomics. A cupful of any of these fillings will meet the emergeney when guests arrive unexpectedly for tea or when you want some- thing to serve with a beverage during the evening: Ground cress, parsley, and the winter vegetables, and also grated orange rind, may be used in these butter fillings. Wash watercress and drain it thoroughly. Then using the nut knife of the food grinder, grind up enough water- cress to filla cup. Save a few of the best sprigs of cress for deco- rating the sandwiches or the plate on which they are served. Blend this ground cress with about half a cup of well-creamed butter yntil it ‘makes a smooth-spreading mix- ture and season with about a fourth teaspoon of salt. Only one liberal spreading» on the under De- “ part of each sandwich, is neces- sary to distribute the butter fill- ing, so the sandwiches are very quickly made. Crusts are usually, trimmed on sandwiches for spe-. cial occasions, and sometimes cut-- ters of fancy shape are used. The bread is of course cut very thin. To avaid waste spread the filling with regard to the part of éach slice that will be used. If the ‘sandwiches: -are to be rolled it is best to spread them on the loaf = oveamie to remové any oil from eae goods as soon as possible, and it pays to take precautions that the two do not geome in con- tact with each other @ all. and slice each piece with a very sharp knife. Parsley butter is similarly made, with the addition of 2 ta- -blespoons of lemon juice to each cup of ground parsley and each half cup of creamed butter. Car- rots, raw cabbage, and celery, may all be ground up, seasoned, and mixed with butter for. fillings in about the same proportions— two parts of the vegetable to one of butter. Open orange sandwiches are made by spreading a mixture of equal parts of grated orange rind and butter on thin sandwich bread, cut in fancy shapes. No cover slices are used When these butter mixtures are stored in a cold place, they must of course be worked again to a creamy consistency before spread- ing. Cookies for the Children. When oatmeal is used in place of part of the flour in making cookies it gives them a particu- larly good nutty taste. Cinna- mon flavor and raisins make oat- meal cookies especially acceptable to the ehildren. These cookies are easily made and wholesome, says the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture. Oatmeal Drop Cookies. % cup shortening. 1 eup sugar. % cup milk. 1 cup raisins. % cup chopped nut meats. 1% e¢ups fine oatmeal. 1% cups flour. 1 egg... % teaspoon salt. 2 teaspoons cinnamon. %’ teaspoon soda dissolved in 1 teaspoon water.

Crush and cook the six cups of smaller berries for five minutes, stirring all the time; strain. This amount of fruit should yield about two cups of juice, To this juice add the sugar and heat slowly, t ‘‘l it is entirely dissolved. Drop the large berries into this sirup and allow the fruit to simmer for 3 to 5: minutes. Drain the berries fror: the sirup and place them carefully about an inch apart on shallow, enamel- ware pans or china platters. Boil the sirup for about ten minutes to a temperature of 105 degrees C. or until it is thick. Re- move the scum, add the lemon juice, and pour’the sirup in a thin layer over the berries on the pans or platters.. Cover with window glass propped up about.a quarter of an inch so as to allow air to circulate over the fruit. Place the pans of preserves in the sun for two or three days, or until the sirup has formed a jelly. After each day’s sunning, turn the ber- ries over, and take them into the house before the dew falls. Without reheatir - put the: jel- lied preserves into hot sterilized lasses, cover the top with paraf- in, label, and store in a cool, dry place. This amount yields quart of preserves.

One reason why Hamburg steak is so popular is that it can be quickly cooked, in individual por- tions, but a more important rea- son is probably that when it is properly cooked the fine flavor of broiled meat can be obtained from cuts which are not tender enough to cook as steaks. “Many people* think Hamburg steak is tastier if a little onion flavor is added to the ground meat, or served with the meat cakes, or both. Another good flavor with Hame burg steak is bacon. The ilius- tration shows how you can wrap each portion with a slice of ba- con, fasten with a skewer, and then broil and serve with onion. Here’s a recipe from the Bureau of Home Economics of the Uniter States Department of Ag- riculture: Broiled Hamburg Steak on Onion Rings. . 2 cups ground lean raw beef. % cup ground suet. 1 cup soft fine bread crumbe. 7 strips bacon. 7 slices Spanish onion, % inch ck. 1 tablespoon chopped parsley. 3 tablespoons ° butter. 2 teaspoons onion juige. % teaspoon salt. % teaspoon pepper. 1 tablespoon water.

Ie the meantime, cook the chopped parsley in 1. tablespoon of butter and combine with the beef, suet, crumbs and seasonings. Knead thoroughly mixed. . Mold into seven flat cakes and- wrap each in a slice of bacon. Place each cake on an ‘onton slice in the baking dish and broil under, minutes on occasionally direct heat for five each side.

Why, if we iose thig year it will mean the sophomores will tri- umph over us for the rest of the year, and we only have two more weeks till Easter.” Every year, a month before Easter, Miss Carl, the head of the girls Dart- mouth Boarding School would present @ small gold key to the sophomores one year and the freshmen the next year. The object was for the side who had the key to hide it (on the cam- pus or in the School). The other side must try to get the key in their possession. The day before Laster holidays, whoever had the Key, fresh- men ar sophomores; would win. The sophomores had been presented the key this year and for two weeks they had kept it. Now, the freshmen were getting serious and a group of the more active girls had called a meeting to decide what to do. Ruth Chase had just been talking. “You're right, Ruth, we just have two more weeks, but what can we do?” Why, Gracie Carlton, two more weeks; we ought to be able to do everything in two weeks.” “I say, Ruth, I have a fAan.” “What is it Raquel?” A tall dark-haired girl, Raquel Claymore, the president of the fresh- men class, had just come into the room. “Suppose we trail the sopho- mores. Ol, no; better still. Let me call up Jean Corley, she has been running around a lot with the presi- dent of the sophomores and maybe she knows where the key is.” Raquel picked up the phone. In a minute she had rung up Dresden House where most of the sophomores lived. In a@ high, soft voice, which was just the opposite of Raquel’s deep voice, she asked for Jean Corley. * “Be quiet, girls,” to the group of giggling girls around her and then over the phone: “Hello, is this Jean? Well Jean, this is Babe Darling. “I was sitting here in my room and suddenly I got worried about the key. -I don’t think we have such a good place for it, do you? What? Who am I? Don’t be silly Jean, but sup- pose I come over and talk to you about it. What? You are in bed and, anyhow you don’t ,think anybody would look in the old book case in the library for it. Neither dol. Thanks a lot Jean. Good-by.” Raquel hung up the phone. “Oh, girls, isn't it grand. She told me everything. Now, all we have to do is go down and get the key.” Mable Graham gave a vio- lent yawn. “Oh, say girls, I’m s0 gorry, but I'm sleepy. Let’s turn in. We can get it just as easily to- morrow morning.” “I know, Mabel. but suppose Jean thinks something is fishy about it and calls Babe up and they go down and get it.” Ruth Adams opened one eye. “I agree with Mabel. You know how sleepy Jean wes she wouldn't bother to call up anybody at this time of night.- Besides Miss: Carl will be up here soon. She must have seen our lights.” Convinced by this argu- ment, the girls agreed to turn in. It was next morning. Raquel] and Ruth, who shared a room together, were lying comfortably in bed when the door opened and Babe Darling came in. The girls blinked at her in amazement, for a gout key was in her hand. “What a cute little argument, Ra- quel Jean’s dumb. and if you all hadn’t been so sleepy you could have | ~ had the key last night. But just remember this, you freshies might be smart, but we sophomores are smarter,” and with a final tantalizing wave of the key, Babe was gone. The two girls lay looking at each other. “Well, Ruth, I guess it’s a washout for us,” Raquel finally said. The two R’s, as Raquel and Ruth were called, were sitting in their room that night. It was raining torrents. “They've probably hidden it out on the campus.” Ruth remarked, “and it would rain to prevent us going out to look for it.” Mabel stuck her head in. “Telephone for Raquel.” Ruth was left alone, sitting gloomily in the room: The rain was beating monotonously against the window. Suddenly Ruth heard a_ scratch, scratch on the window pane. What was it? Probably the wind. Again she heard it and this time a faint “meow” accompanied it. Ruth walked to the window and, throwing up thé shade, looked out. Two bright green eyes looked beseechingly in at her. Ruth gave a start and then she lifted up the window. The sorriest speci- man of cathood she had ever seen was standing there. A small gray kitten was standing shivering against the window, two big yellow eyes looked pbeseechingly at her. As Ruth stared at the kitten, it made itself into a small little ball and rolled on the floor with a loud thump. Ruth stooped and picked it up. “Poor kitty,” she murmured. When ues came back, a small kitty lay in front of the fire busily lapping milk. “Why, Ruth!” Ruth looked at her .beseechingly. “Please, Raquel, let’s keep it. It was in the window sill soaking wet. I don't know how it got there, but it was nearly drowned, so I let if in.” “But Miss Carl?” “She need never know. I am sure we can keep it here, and none of the girls will tell.” “All right.” And the kitty had found a home. Raquel had gone to the library leaving Ruth alone. The kitten had gone out on the campus to play. Freshy, as the girls had named it be- cause they had made her their fresh- man mascot, always climbed up in the window sill and scratched on it Cet. ah Cee Pde Pia ee tl acta a ae aise .

Freshy hed been gone for two hours now and Ruth was getting worried. “I reckon I'll just waik out on the campus and see if I see her.” Once out on the campus there was no sign Of Freshy, and Ruth was just turning around to come back when in front of the sophomore dormitory was @ large tree and under the tree was Freshy» What was that in the kitten’s mouth? Some bright object! “Preshy, come here.” The cat shook its head playfully and then, still car- rying the shiny object in her mouth, she ran over to Ruth and laid the key (for that was what it was) at feet. Then, picking it up, she dashed back under the tree-and laid it in a small hole in the ground. Ruth picked up the key, for it was the one the freshmen and sophomores had been fighting over for ae month, Ruth stooped down and picked up the kitten also. Then she rushed back to her room. Raquel was al- ready there. “Why are 7m looking so . blue, Raquel?” “Why not? Tomorrow the key is turned in and -the sophomores have it, don't they?” Ruth laughed.

Tifey were going to go 30 miles up the mountain side to an old trapper’s cabin that they had found on a previous hunting trip.” That time they hunted for bear, but this time they were going to hunt for pan- thers; a dangerous sport, but very exciting. Fred and Bill had gotten up at & o’clock 50 as get every- thing ready and be off by 7, and ‘as it 5 minutes of %, all ready to _—« égo.. their parents” good- they were off. As they were going up the main street of Berkley, they could see the inhabitants at the doors and windows of their houses, and presently they L-.ard the cries of “good-by” and “good luck” that was shouted out of many of: the doors and windows, and as you have prob- ably guessed by this time, Fred and Bill were both well known and well liked. As they came to the end of the town, both Fred and Bill ae oltoees and looked back, as if earranged agreement. “Well,” aid Pred, “we're leaving old Berkley for-another wéek.” “Yeah,” replied Bill. “In a my I hate to leave.” “So do I, Bill,” was the answer.

But fore they go very far let’s see what, in the way of pro- visions and equipment, that Pred and Bill carry. In FPred’s knapsack there are two light, but warm, wool biank- ets, five pounds of flour, one slab of bacon, three pounds of coffee, two of -tea, milk (condensed), butter and some seasoning, al] packed in a way that would keep them fresh for at least four days. In Bill’s knapsack there was exactly the same thing that was in Fred’s, but with the ex- ception of one thing, and. that was there were two one-pound bags of candy in Bill's knapsack, for you seé, he was very pee 2. of poe The night before Fred d started on their hunting Lone one is, _ Priday night, it had snowed very heavily, and - ty Bree had rt now reached the ountain slopes gai Was very hard.

Pretty soon an appetizing smell, that of ham and eggs, was wafted out of the cabin by a playful evening breeze, and that same playful breeze wafted that smeil right under Bill’s nose. “Boy, what a smell! Um, um, um.” So picking up the boughs that he had gathered, Bill literally ran back to, the cabin, just in time to see Fred change a big” piatter full of ham and eggs from the. stove to the table. “Man alive! longer, Fred.” “Al) right,” said Fred laughingly. “Pall to and do justice to your ap- petite.” But words were not necessary, for Bill certainly was doing justice to his appetite. After he had washed, Fred came in and made a rush for I just can’t wait any ‘the table, too, and, although he did not say aloud how hungry he was, he certainly showed it by his eating.

Bob’s Temptations “Bob,” Lewis called “we have only one more day to get our” essay fin- ished.” “I have already finished mine,” Bob replied in his usual calm way. The two boys were standing on the corner of the street talking about the essay that was to be passed in one day later. There were prizes for the best essays and each boy was wishing He would win one, ; “I know Harry would be sore if either of us should get the prize.” Lewis was speaking of a schoolmate who hated our hero because he thought he “tried to be too much.” “He would have a right to,” Bob replied dryly. “If you don’t ‘ook out he will pull off some of his stunts on you,” Lewis warned. ' “Guess “not.” Bob did not like to talk about Harry and was always ready to forgive him after every mean act. A day later the boys sat.in school with their essays ready to be passed in. The teacher was speaking: “Place your essay on the desk right side up, and when I ring the bell pass it to ' the person in front of you and so, on, until they are on my desk.” Just as the bell sounded. Harry, by some cunning accident. upset the bottle of ink on Bob’s paper. He knew Bob would not have, time to copy it over, so he counted him as out of the contest now. Several of the boys saw the dirty trick and one _ exclaimed: “Harry!

Tomimy replied. “Harry needs a good licking.” “If he treated me like that I would give it to him, too,” was another's comment. “Well, maybe it was an accident,” Bob answered them in his forgiving way. “And if it wasn’t—well, t’s mot talk about it. Anyway, it’s all over now.” “You sure have a sweet temper,” Lewis sighed. “If he had treated me like he treated you I would have knocked him over long ago.. Harry has been dirty to you ever since we met him.” “Well, there is not.any use of fight- ing him, Lewis,” Bob explained. “I want him to see his faults and you can’t make him see them by treating him mean.” “Well, how are you going to make him see them?” Tommy questioned’ “By showing them to him.” “How?” “The only way to make any one se® their faults is by doing a kind deed for them.” “Are you going to do a kind deed for Harry?” Lewis asked. “As soon as I get a chance, yes,” Bob spoke. “I think you do one every day by not licking him,” one of the boys giggied. © “What I want_to,do is to: put my- self danger tp. help him, You don't Know how that strikes them: Harry really deesn’t mean to be spiteful.

It was Bob’s sweet temper that had made him loved by all the boys, except Harry and, as Bob said, he did not really mean to be hateful. A few weeks later Bob’s chance ar- rived. The boys had decided to go out into the woods to explore. They went merrily along, with Harry playing tricks on Bob all the way. Bob, on his part, took them 60 good-naturedly until the boys could not help from admiring him. Finally they came to an old shaky bridge. It was built across a fairly large creek that was full of rocks and sink holes. The boys stood looking at it for a whole and then Harry, trying to act. smart, started across the bridge.

Last week we printed the names of the pages eligible for promotion to the rank of esquire. ‘There are three new esquires this week, brothers and sis- ter, who started the Knighthood game of character building together and who finished their reminder carts at one and the same time. These new. esquires were Albert Vance Hamm, jr., George Alexander Hamm and Mary Jane Hamm, 2020 Thirty-fifth street northwest. The reminder cards of the esquire rank are very attractive. It is printed in red and cream tones and on the first page is a stunning picture of a knight on horseback with his Jance piercing a horrible looking dragon under the horse’s feet. The esquire pin shows an esquire leading a spirited horse. It is in green and oa low tones and the shield of the Knighthood of Youth on it has two crosses on it. These crosses tell that this is the second step in the Knighthood. The daily questions on the esquire reminder card are these: Did I.do promptly what my par- ents and teacher asked me to do? Did I follow the rules of safety to the best of my ability? Was I on time for every meal un- less excused by my mother or father? Did I do all my lessons and_work today? Did I clear up any litter I made? Was I polite at table? Did I avoid cheating in any way? Did I do my_best to break the habit that my parents or teacher asked me to break? Did I avoid picking a quarrel with any one? Did I share something I liked with others? . It must not be forgotten that the questions on the page reminder card are to be served every day as well even if they are not marked on & card as formerly. The reason for this is that it is thought by the National Child Welfare Association, nsors for the Knighthood of Youth, that after building up a good habit for sixteen weeks it will come as a matter of course. The following outline is printed on the third page of the reminder card: Gird on they shield and sword, O Knight, And mount thy fiery steed! Go forth to fight for truth and right In thought and speech and deed. Thy armor shall be Honesty, Clear as the Heavens above, And in thy hand none shall with- sta nd The shining sword of Love. © seize thy shield of Courage, then, Gird on thy armor bright! is long, but be thou ng, And nares shalt win the fight! - “The knight in olden times,” con- tinues the explanation, “put on his armor before going forth to battle. The football player nowadays puts on his headguard and shoulder pads before the game, so you and every other member of the Knighthood of Youth, must put on the armor of Honesty, Courage and UWnselfishness; if you are to win your battle. “It is a finer and More exciting battle than any knight or any foot- ball player ever fought—a battle to make yourself more worthwhile and to make other people happier. “The titles of Knight, Banneret, that go with them, will be granted you as fast as you win them by your own efforts. “But what the members of the Knighthood of Youth are really working for is not titles and badges but happiness and usefulness. “Truthfulness and honesty are the very first things expected of every knight. Try to mark this record as fairly as if you were keeping tabs on the other fellow instead of on your- self. “Every day, in the blank spaces, mark each question X (favorable) or O -(unfavorable)..

In a recent letters from Mrs. James U. Kincheloe,-who has been active there in promoting it, she writes: “We are hoping to have the Enight- hood circles give an account of their work at Patrons’ Day on May 1.

Knighthood Code. Makes Impression On Its Members Inscribed on Young Hearts, Motto Leaves Mark Upon Youth. By OLIVIA 8S. HENRY. How often the cry goes up, “Every- thing we build up in five hours # torn .down as soon as the children leave us!" At last the magic words have been found—Knighthood of Youth! The club which has as ts code: I have to lived with myself, and = I want to be fit for myself to know. I want to be able as days go by, Always to look myself straight is the eye, I don’t want to stand ting sun, And hate myself for the things I have done. If you write that upon the hearte of the children, it will take much adverse influence to tear down what you have built up How to write these words indelibly on their hearts and minds ig told clearly and simply by the Knighte hood of Youth materials issued through the National Child Welfare Association, Allow me to cite a few instances which show the results of the de- velopment of character through the use of the Knighthood idea. Our children have only been under the influence of the club since February, yet the results are simply amazing at this early stage. As for class en- thusiasm—it is indescribable. Miss Faison, a sixth grade teacher, writes as follows.: ‘When I was asked to try the Knighthood of Youth with my class, I must admit that my thoughts were those of a skeptic. The trouble was, that there was a lack of faith in the’ children and also in my ability to handle a situation so new, SO vast, sO appalling. Subject Is Opened. After much reading and thinking I opened e subject and found to my joy,.that Mrs. Henry's former children, a few of whom «were now in my group, and who had a bit of experience with the Knighthood of Youth, could, and did help me trem- endously with the discussion. Every- thiig went off with a bang. What has all of this done for my class? It has given them higher ideals. They seem to have an idea of a particuler kind of perfection and. striving toward a goal. Truth seems to be a favorite slogan with them. Children who do wrong will tel] the truth and take the. consequences. I had for a long time tried to instill a sense of responsibility in my classes, a desire to “carry on’ when I hap- wimed to be called away. Today, it is far from being ogee but the spirit hag developed to such a degree that it can be seen. One day I was out of the room. The previous day I had remerked that we would finish our drawings the next day. No specific directiong had been given, but on returning to the room I found that materials had been given owt and everyone was busily painting. It might also be stated the results were exceedingly gratifying. It-might be added in addition to whet Miss Faison has said that in all the groups there is an enthusiastic, lively participation in_lessons which we have traced directly to the result of the influence of the Knighthood of Youth Club. The following is a report of Mrs. Thomas on one of her meetings which brings out the great spirit of unselfishness which the club has developed in her group. Text of Report,’ with. the set- Bee se mone of members asked for She told the class that one of the members was going to another school the following Monday, and since this was her last club meeting she thought we should all tel] Thel- ma good-by. Immediately all over the class children stood up and told Thel- ma how much they would miss ber and how sorry they were to see her go. Many asked for her new address and promised to write. A member then suggested that. we give' Thelma some token of remembrance. The club unanimously voted to give her a book from’ our library. The secretary wrote these words on the inside cover: - “Remember us, please! Best wishes . from the Knighthood of Youth Club.” Can you imagine being able to de- velop such class spirit in les than two months? As for my own group, I stand astounded. A slow group, from three classes with no” ideals for self betterment, no class spirit, they stand today a compact little famfy with the rudiments of splendid develop- ment beginning to show. If the pro- gress in the next two months equals that of the past two they will be well on the road to strength of character, Jpead and shoulders abo other less fortunate children . For I deem that child opportunities presented to Khim which are offered through the oo tay ae va

PAGE 6 = Knighthood Plans Good Health for All Its Members Keeping Strong and Fit Is Reminder on Cards Kept by Youths. NE of the first requisites of a member of the Knighthood of Youth is good health. Uniess you are well you can not expect to win your quest for knight- hood. It takes strength and well be- ing to be able to enjoy the great game of knighthood fully. Even the youngest boy and girl can learn habits of health. Keep yourself clean. That is a fine way to keep healthy. That means brushing your teeth, morning and night, daily baths of at least a good scrub with warm water and soap three times a day. Always wash your hands before you eat anything. Germs often get on the hands and if they are not washed, they are carried into the mouth and thus infect the body. As a little verse says: No Health Crusader is content With just a hasty, careless rub, I give my neck and ears and nails A thorough, hearty, soapy, scrub. Some one has said that health habits are stepping stones to Ameri- can manhood—and womanhood. Among these stepping stones are good plain food, frequent baths, fresh air. out of doors play and plenty of sleep. Write on your reminder card whether page or esquire this ques- tion: ‘Have I done the best I could to keep strong and well today?” You can not answer that question with a big “X” unless you have been careful to eat the right kind of food that day. For remember that your body is the house of your mind and it must not be overheated with the wrong kind of food or chilled by not eat- ing enough of the proper articles of food. The Way to get a good start on the day’s work .in school or play in holidays is by eating a good break- fast. .To begin the day right your breakfast should at least hadve in it milk, egg, cereal, fruit and bread and butter. Have you ever heard of nature’s toothbrush? It is made up of al- most all fruits, tomatoes, celery. raw vegetables, coarse crusty foods. They help to keep the teeth clean. Too sugary foods packed into the teeth help to cause their decay. Another way to keep healthy is to drink plenty of water a day. That is a very easy thing to do and yet it will do a great deal to Keep you well. So at night when you check up your reminder card on the health question ask yourself: “Did I drink plenty of water today?” = = ee .

You hold the other end tight with your left hand. With your right forefinger you now take fhe nearer string and pass it over the other as in Figure B. Keeping the forefinger in this space you twist the hand to insert the right thumb between the crossing of the strings and the spectator’s finger, as in Figure C. Then, as fn Figure D, lift the forefinger and touch the tip of the spectator’s finger. After this move the string seems hopelessly tangled, but when you pull on the end held by your left hand at the same time slipping your thumb free, How Many Triangles? Why Admiral Dewey Is One of the Nation’s Heroes (Henorable Mention.) During the Spanish-American War George Dewey was in command of an American squadron at Hongkong, China. The President, Mr. William Mc- Kinley, sent orders to George Dewey to sail for the Philippine Islands. He arrived at Manila Bay on the evening of April 30,1898. Mr. Dewey had six war ships, while the Spanish had twice as many and’ were within‘ @ fortified port. Mr. Dewey, however. had more sailors, and they were good fighters. Early the néxt “morning, Mby 1, George Dewey fought in one of the Greatest battles in naval history Within a few hours, the Spanish fleet had been destroyed without the loss of an American sailor. The Spanish lost nearly 400 men Mr. Dewey was given the honor of being made rear admiral, which is the highest station in the Navy. AGNES BALDWIN (age 12). 1819 G street northwest, Apt. 215.

The final installment appears herewith: How the Teacher May Help You If your boy or girl is a member of the Knight hood of Youth you will have an excellent oppor- tunity to visit his or her teacher and talk confidentially about the child’s habits and disposi- tion, ~- The teacher will be happy to recéive you because good habits and attitudes of children are so necessary for her own happiness and success. You canéhen plan together for the train- ing which the child has undertaken. | If a girl has selected the advanture of keeping her room neat and clean at home it will ’ be helpful for the teacher to emphasize her keeping her desk and books tidy at school. You can tell the teacher of any special training which your child needs: For example, he May be very dependent and lack initiative. Under these circumstances, he may select as one of his adventures “Did I try hard myself before asking help fronr others.” His teacher will . find an opportunity to encourage and help him in this at school. In the building of his Castle, which is explained in the Members Book, there will be many things which he may do at school, such as making a scrap book in geography or language, a nature book in nature study, a bird house or other articles in manual training. The teacher / will be glad to note your effort in helping the child succeed in their school adventures. ~ Through your interest, the teacher may be encouraged to enroll her entire club in Knight- _ hood. If so, your child will be very proud and happy to have the support of his classmates. You may also be able to intérest the Parent-Teacher Association in the Knighthood plan. A Few Suggestions for Parents. If you are to make a success of Knighthood of Youth or any home activity, you must be a comrade to your children. You live for them, but do you live with them in the sense-of understanding their thoughts, their desires and problems? : . Children must be given in the home daily op portunities to put into practice habits of un- . selfishness, courtesy, obedience, truthfulness, order and thoroughness. Many parents try to bring this about through fear. They do not realize that harmful results come from whip- ping, teasing, nagging, shaming.a child and demanding strict obedience. without good reasons. Such treatment may cause increased misbehavior in home and school or shyness, stammering, lying, stealing and general hostility towards parents. Boys or girls can not be taught virtues by mere preaching or scolding. Leatbthe by do- ing is the only effective. way. To learn to read, to-become a ball player or a musician, to be- ‘come skillful in anything, oné must first desire to learn and then practice. It used to be said that “Practice makes Perfect. ” Pathologists now say, “Practice—plus enjoyment while acting—makes perfect.” Thus, good. charact er can be attained only through actual practice ‘under conditions which satisfy the child. The boy or girl must be so interested: in right acts ‘that he or she will wish to'make a practice of doing right.. | You can help children with this by having more family fun; more family picnics, more reading, studying, working, playing and living: together in the home. Knighthood of Youth ‘apens the way for you to do these things. You have something definite with which to work. You can arrange matters so each child will have the attention which he craves and should receive so that he will not have to depend upo n misbehavior or pretending ilmess-in order to. attract attention. In this. way, he grows from dependence to independence and receives recognition for his efforts... 2A .weNUGENTS There is a terrific struggle going on here, and our monk friend is al] upseh To see both the combatants you must finish the picture for yourself.

Announcement of prize winners will be made each Sunday for the contest published two weeks previously. two divisions; one for INSTRUCTIONS FOR COLORING We. all love a beautiful landscape and here is your chance to paint one with two pretty birds as the point of interest The sky should be an opal gray with faint tints of yellow and red, the distant hills should be a light purple, the clump of trees in the upper left cormer should be light green, yellow and dark green, the field near the trees should be light cream yellow with blending of rose and green getting stronger and more greenish as it nears the foreground. The daisies are white with yellow centers and green stems, the clover is green with red bloom, the straws and grass blades upon which the birds are swaying should be yellowish green shaded with dark green. The male bird, the large one near the top of the picture, is the brightest in color; it is almost solid black with a bright lemon yellow spot on the back of its head, a patch -of gray over the shoulder and running back to the tail: the tail feathers are “black. The female is yellow and brown. with deep brown spotted streaks on the head and deep brown wing feathers; the breast and throat are yellow, the . nM 223 . feet are light rec ‘ ? ; 4 - / | The Bobolink By MISS CARRIE JACOBS We may know more of bobolink through what is written about it than through what we have seen here, for we are just a little too far pouth to see it in its summer home and much too far. north to see it in its winter home Neither. do we see much of it as it migrates from one home to the other ‘ The States in the northeastern ‘part of our country seem to suit it best for a.summer home and here is where they know it as a jolly fellow Here and there, about here, they are seen and all who are on the lookout for birds may have a chance to see them. Farther north in these States they are more pientiful. The greater mumber choose a way farther east when they journey back and forth. but even here during the clear even- tof ings of late April and early May, and- again in parts of August and Sep- tember, their tink, tink calls can be ard overhead, .as signals Ee eee together,, birds trave ance’ they leave their ‘ ~ © . ee er: i> : i ne summer homes in August or Septem- ber and turn their faces toward Plorida.

Prom Plorida num- bers go to the islands out in the Atlantic Ocean Upon some of these islands are tall grasses and here the birds feed until they become fat and are called butter birds Their journey is~not yet finished. Along in October or November they leave Fiorida and the islands and fly a long distance over the ocean ta South Amerjpa, where they spend the rest of the winter. [In all they travel between six and sever thousand mites. Again in spring this distance is gone, over to reach -a place to build &@ nest and rear three or four young bobolinks. No one knows just when they start back, but they are back again in Florida in April and reach their summer home in May. They spend about four months’ with us and twice that long a time in their winter home and on the way there and back. , *, ? ee ne ne er ne ert eee MAY 4, 1930. i ae Oi; 220! ee ae —— 7-07 “TOP -WIEW= =H 2-TTPANEL’ EFPEC x7°STel a ‘CONSTRUCTION?

Instead of using all of his money. for food, he spent one-half of it for a rose. because he loved flowers and D* you remember the story, boys, felt that his hungry soul must also be fed with beauty. There is a splendid thought behind this tale and I hope it will start you thinking along this line. Learn to love and care for flowers. There is room somewhere on the outside of your house or garage——a place where the sun. will shine for at least a few hours each day—a place you wish to brighten ur with the bloom of some brilliant fowers, such as geraniums, petunias, nasturtiums. é&c., so let’s make a flower box or two. boys; you will not find the job a difficult one. ” Flower ooxes must stand a great deal of exposure to the weather; for that reason select the right kind of lumber. The following woods are ali good to use: White pine, cypress, fir, spruce, chestnut and redwood You will require the following: 2 pieces for front and back, % in.x 85, inx10¥% in. i piece for bottom, % in.x11\% in.x 6 ft. 10% in. 7 4 pieces for ends and partitions, Y% in.x8% in.x9%, in. 9 linear feet of molding for the top. 9 ilnear feet of molding for the bottom. — 1 piece for panel effect, %4 in.x2™% in.x6 ft. 7% in. 1 piece for panel effect, % in.x2\, in.x6 ft.7% in. 4 pieces for panel effect, 4% in.x1' in.x85 in. | | 2 pieces for panel effect, % in.x11, in.x8% in. . 2 pieces for panel effect, % in.x1, in.x4¥, in. 4 brackets, 1% in.x9 in.x12 in. 1 piece for strip against the wall, 1 in.x2 in.x7 ft. Lumber that comes dressed from the mill is smooth enough-to use; no hand planing will be necessary, as this project must be painted. Step No. 1—The stock: Cut the various pieces to the sizes indicated on the drawing, being careful to square up the ends and to get the length alike on the short pieces. A clean true saw cut will be all right. Step No. 2—<Assemble: Nail the front and back pieces to the ends and partitions with 8-penny common wire nails,.using four nails to each joint. Now securely nail the bottom in place with the same size and kind of nails, fastening into the partitions. sides and ends. 2 _ Step No. 3—Panel effect: Use 1 inch No. 16 brads (small head nails) for fastening the outside strips to the box. Start at the corners, then nail the long strips and finally the two intermediate pieces so as to form three panels across the front. Re- member there are, no strips fastened to the back. Now use your miter box and cut the top pieces; securely nail these to the box with M4 inch No 16 brads or 4penny finishing nails. Cut and fit the moldings under this top strip, and also run the molding at the bottom. sink all nails. Step, No. 4—Painting: prime coat of white lead or lead and zinc paint, mixed with raw linseed oil and about one-third tur- pentine and sufficient dryer, or should you prefer, buy a ready mixed out- side paint. When the paint is dry. putty all nail holes and' defects with white lead putty. Apply the second coat of paint, which should contain more oil and less turpentine: When dry and hard (allow abeut a week or ten days) give the job the final coat, Apply «4 paint Counter- - being careful to brush out the paint to prevent runners. Paint the inside also and use very little turpentine on the last coat. ’ Step No. 5—The linings: Although your flower box will last about six or seven years, if kept well painted in- side and outside, without any metal lining, it will keep for more than a quarter of a century if properly made and lined. Zinc or copper make the best materials for lining the flower box. If you are a little handy with a copper bit (soldering iron) aud a pair of tinner’s snips (shears). the job is not at all difficult. Use 16-o0z. copper zinc and be sure to connect with drain pipes of about % inch in diam- eter for each section, so as to carry off the excess water; otherwise, the soil will become sour and the plants will not grow properly. The corners must be soldered together carefully to prevent water getting under the ns. Allow the edge to turn over on the top strip; then nail se- curely. Step No. 6—Setting the box: Make four brackets as shown or have some mill saw them out for you. Fit and fasten these securely in place, nail a 1 by 2 inch strip along the house at the back, to give additional support. The box is not fastened to the walis, as the weight will keep it in place. To start your flower box, put in a layer of about 1% inches of. cimders or small stones. Then the rich top soil to within 1 inch of the top. The stones give good age to the box. Mix a little fertilizer with the soil and keep the flowers watered. regu- larly. but not soaked. — A few plants of vine, allowed to gracefully hang over the edge adds much to the ¢tharm of your flower box.

No ab- normal exercise or diet to bring harm. Note the results you see everywhere. Slender fig- ures now prevail. Excess fat is the exception. New youth and beauty, new health and vigor, have come to multitudes in the easy, pleasant, right way. One great reason is a discovery that science made some years ago. It was found that most fat people had an under- active gland. That gland largely controls nutri- tion, and its weakness leads to fat. Modern physicians. since that discovery, have | applied a new treatment to obesity. They have fed the lacking substance. -Marmola prescription tablets, prepared by a right method is at everv- one’s command. Marmola has been used for 22 years—millions of boxes of it.. Users have told others the results un- cl Marmola now stands alone. A book in each box gives the formula and explains the reasons for results. So users know what they are taking and why the good effects ap- pear. Is it not folly to stay fat when so many have found .an easy way to slender, normal hgures? And the nght way.
