Nosingover in the early dawn, after leaving the sthooth rnuway that stretches out from Harbor Grace air- port, the plane suffered irreparable damage. Neither Mears,“‘his pilot, Henry J.

HEAT WAVE RETURNS WITH READING OF 100 Kiosk Three Degrees Above Official; Boston and West Swelter. NO SHOWERS IN SIGHT Another siege of excessive heat is in store for Washington, as indicated by the temperatures yesterday, which broke this year’s new all-time record | when it rose to 100 for the eighth time. The Weather Bureau predicts fair and continued warm for today and says there is no chance of tem- pering rain. Previous to 1930 the record was four. days of 100-degree temperatures in one summer, set in 1874. An official temperature of 100 de- grees was recorded at the Weather Bureau at <4 o'clock. The streets hotter, as the Penn- thermometer reached 103 about 3:30 o'clock. The humidity, which was about 30 all day, again proved a factor which some- what discounted the high tempera- ture. About 4:30 o'clock a strong southwest breeze started the temper- ature dropping slowly. Again yesterday the heat caused an exodus of Washingtonians toward beaches and bathing resorts. Those who were unable to leave the city sought relief in the parks and swimming pools as the mercury rose. Nearly 18,000 persons who attended dium were vividly shown the effect of the long heat and drought on the grass of the playing field. Large plots of brown dead turf marked the out- field, which is usually a sparkling green throughout the summer, Although thousands sought relief night had received no reports of drownings or other water casualties.

Filling Station Man Identifies" Davis as Bandit. NO CHARGE AGAINST TWO HELD {N THEFT Third Linked in Holdup of Messenger Sought Vainly Here. CASHIER AT HOSPITAL’ FAILS TO NAME PAIR Unable to Recognize Them as Those Who Wrested $7,000 Pay Roll. Carl B. Davis, 20 years old, of A street near Sixteenth street north- east, who was arrested in connection with the recent holdup of a bank messenger, has been identified as one of the bandits who held up the Lord Baltimore filling station collector on July 13 and escaped with $2,200. Davis has not been charged with either rob- bery, however. Officials at headquarters sald yes- terday that Davis Had been confront- ed by one of the men who were robbed in the filling station eat S¢e- ond street and Pennsylvania avenue northwest just three weeks ago, and . that the man had pointed out Davis as one of the bandits. Two men bound and gagged the driver of a taxi and used the machine to transport themselves to the Penn- sylvania avenue station. Here they found Benjamin F. Burch, a collecté? for the chain and robbed him of the week-end receipts of the 79 stations. The taxi cab was later found aban- doned near the scene of the Spa Putice., Hu "Potter third man implicated.in the — Friday of a young messenger for the Mount Vernon Savings Bank have had no success, and the opinion is prevalent that the man has left the city. It is thought that he took alarm when he read of the arrest of his confederates, and immediately left town Meanwhile, no specific charge has been placed against the two men ar- rested Saturday in connection with the case. The men are Davis and Morris C. Beck, 18 years old, of Four- teenth street near Girard street north- west. They are being held in cells at separate precinct stations for investi« gation. Davis is at the First Precinct, while Beck is staying at the Third. About $400, which is alleged to be a part of the $3500 loot of the robbery, was seized when the pair was ar- rested. Car Owner Released, Another man, owner of the car used by the bandits, who was held for questioning, has been released. It was established that the machine implicated in the holdup was either stolen from this other man, or bor- rowed from him by friends. The cashier of Children’s Hospital, Miss Eleanor Page, who was robbed the day before of $7,000 by two ban- dits, did not identify them as the same men who threw her to the pavement and wrésted the bag of money from her. She viewed them at Detective Headquarters, but said they did not resemble the pair who robbed her. Taxi Driver Held Up. A taxi driver was held up last night in a lonely spot in southeast Wash- ington by three armed bandits who were frightened off before they got anything. Police believe them to be the same gang which Saturday robbeq a cab driver in the same spot of $9. Yesterday's victim was Jack 6, Harper, of 19 G street4 northwest. He was hired by the three men at Third street and Pennsiltani® ave- nue northwest to drive them to C-2- gress Heights.

The same drastic reduction in purchasing power has been made in India and the remainder of the silver-using Orient, said Mr. Roche. Direct results of the falling price |of the white metal have been shown in the shutdowns of lessened produc- tion plans of miinmes throughout the West, with the consequent unemplcy- ment. $15,000 Fire Destroys Store in Harrisonburg Special to The Washington Post.

The error was discovered when a postcard ar- Tived at the professor’s house from j Moorer, addressed to the boy, and asking him why he did not write. Brilliantly and widely read, young Moorer graduated from high school in Asheville last year and went straight to the university. His mother says that he was “too clever” and she believes now that his brilliancy in- duced the mental disorder that sent him astray. Young Moorer is slender, 6 feet in height, weighs about 142 pounds and has bright black eyes and dark hair. He holds his head slightly to one side when he walks and talks. There is a slight scar above his left eye, severing the eyebrow. His moth- er says that this scar could only be seen on close inspection. The youth in New Haven who, au- thorities believe may be Moorer, has given his name as Luther Hiney and tells police that. he has been in Ashe- ville and other North Carolina cities, but can’t remember where he lives. Mrs. Moorer has sent added informa- tio and pictures to New Haven, anad Haven authorities are still convinced that they have located Moorer, the mother will go there. 38 Ttaken From Lost Schooner.

LINGLE KILLING TALLIES Chicago, July 8 (A.P.).—Officials investigating the assassination of Jack Zuta,: who trafficked in women, today were agreed the wily head of the Moran-Alello vice syndicate had come to his death through the same medium. With revenge for the slaying of Alfred (Jake) Lingle, Tribune crime reporter, generally accepted as the motive; authorities have uncovered evidence indicating that it was a woman who put Zuta “on the: spot.” Zuta telephoned an unidentified woman in Chicago frequently, they have established, and made the last call shortly before his scheduled departure for a summer camp in Delafield, Wis., was blocked by the bullets of an execution squad. Two groups of gangsters were in the general vicinity of Zuta’s hideout, detectives ascertained, and presum- ably they moved into slay Zuta when vhe mystery woman informed them of the vice chief’s intended retreat. One of Zuta’s calls to Chicago was traced to a Mrs. Laura Nelson at a North Side address. She was ques- tioned yesterday and released. When police sought to take her into custody again on later information, she had Meanwhile, Pat Roche, member of the commission investigating the Lin- gle murder, announced he believed the blonde gunman who shot Lingle to death June 9 in a crowded railroad runway was in the group that ended Zuta’s long career in extra-legal ac- tivities. Descriptions given by witnesses to both assassinations tallied in detail. Roche's theory holds Zuta employed the gunner to kill Lingle because he had used his police department in- fluence in harrying the Zuta North Side organization. The gunman, Roche believes, feared Zuta would turn informer under po- lice in ation and decided to eliminate him. Police tonight expressed belief that Vision, whom Zuta put in as a collector for the Moran gang in place of Ted Newberry, may also have been slain. He is among the missing, au- thorities said, along with Albert Bratz, whose car Zuta was using in Wisconsin. FISH ARE DYING OUT fish life everywhere, and has drawn IN SHRUNKEN RIVERS Continued from Page 1, forth a@ the efforts of the State and national protective organizations in an effort only partially successful in saving the stocks. “All of the cold water game fish, such as trout, began to show signs of stress weeks ago. As the temperatures of their brooks and streams ran up, there were wholesale endeavors to seine them out and transfer them to greater streams where they might live. This has been done in several States, but naturally only part of the stocked waters could be so treated by hasty emergency organizations, and many of the less known stream- lets will be found barren in coming years. “The actual dropping of the water levels in lakes and rivers everywhere has played havoc with other fish tribes. As the shortage continued, * the spring-fed hatcheries of the Fed- eral and State Governments began to suffer. Temperatures of the water supply ran so high that the game fish broods maintained at several places are in danger. We are now consider- ing the transfer of the harassed stock of one of our establishments in West Virginia, where the situation is becoming desperate, in order to Save some of it. “Then as the shrunken rivérs have been unable to keep their levels up, further and further into the land around all our sea coasts, to the dam- age and discomfort of all fresh water fish. Some of the marine species are being encountered inland at record distances; crabs, for imstance, are be- ing commercially taken within twen- ty miles of Washington, as the Po- losing its freshwater character and tomac River in its lower reaches is becoming an arm of the sea. “I wouldnn’t attempt to estimate what the cost has been; we may not know until in succeeding years the the size of the surviving fish stocks makes itself known. Along the Pa- cific Coast, the salmon catch is turn- ing out to be less in total than it has for many years; but that is prob- ably not a drought imcident. How the drought will affect the reproduc- tion of the species for future years we do not know. “Nevertheless, the probably hopeful pushing ahead with its five-year plan for enlarging hatchery establish- ments. That organization will come to usefulness at a most opportune moment.” U.S. Officer Succumbs To Wounds in Nicaragua Four suspects, three men and a woman, were -arrested in Milwaukee for questioning in connection with the slaying. Police refused to reveal the names, but said they believed one possessed valuable information. ThrongViews R-100 At Quebec Airport 150,000 to 200,000 Sees Craft.

John Gar- land Pollard, President Edwin A. Al- derman and Dr. Charlies G. Maphis, director of the institute. The exer- cises will be followed by a reception to members and invited guests at the Colonnade Club. “The glory of all religion is, so far as its relation to society is concerned, the lofty moral quality of its proph- ets,” declared Bishop McConnell. “If we look at Christianity itself, and the Judaism out of which Christianity came, we see that one function of a Christian community is to aid the individual prophet of social right- eousness by supplying a community which. will make an audience for the Prophet and a reenforcing agent of his message. “It is treason to the spiritual ideals for which Christianity stands when the churches begin to make it hard for a social prophet to get a hearing. Of at least equal importance with this prophetic utterance of the indi- vidual is what might be called the function of corporate prophecy of the church. That is to say, the church has a right, as one of the organiza- tions of society, to express as an or- ganization its approval or condemna- tion of public policy. The State rec- ognizes these organizations as ex- isting in their own right. It lays down the laws which they must ob- serve just as truly as individuals must observe laws.” Relations of Minor Groups. Bishop McConnell declared that one of the pronounced tendencies in so- cial thinking at the present time is that which seeks to determine the place of so-called minor groups in their relation to the large organiza- tions of society which are called states, “In the business world, said the speaker, “we have come to recognize that an orgegization like a corpora- tion has almost a personal existence. In fact, it is looked upon in law as existence to the extent that it can exercise privileges which we ordinarily think of as belonging to persons. It can sue and be sued; it can assume responsibilities itself and insist upon the assumption of responsibilities by\ other organiza- tions, Outside this rather narrow business realm, however, we have too long regarded the minor groups in society as merely the sums of the individuals composing them. “Of recent years there has been 4 marked change in the direction of the emphasis upon the importance of the minor groups for the larger issues of social life. This realization has come partly out of our increasing knowledge of the truth that individ- uals acting together in an organized group are quite different from those individuals acting separately each as a solitary unit. | “When men organize together .into associations of any sort the very fact that they are thus assembled together calls forth powers that originally —* never manifest themselves in individual experience. . “Critics of organized religion some- times speak of these powers as due to what they call ‘crowd contagion.’ Crowd contagion is indeed bad if it induces unworthy action by the crowd. It is entirely possible for a group of persons to do together some- thing below the moral standards which each individual member of the crowd would maintain for himself, if acting alone. On the other hand, it is equally possible for the crowd to rise to @ loftier understanding and to a nobler resolution than could the individuals acting seperately. * * * A church is, or ought to be, 60 closely interwoven through the devotion of the individual members to the eccle- siastical community that it takes on new powers when it acts thus as an organism.” Youth Injured by Golf Ball.

In lifting the embargo against pulpwood from Soviet Russia the Treasury Department has not relinquished its determination to en- force that section of the tariff act prohibiting the importation of goods made by convict labor. The ban was removed because the only evidence the Treasury had to support its case was “conflicting and inconclusive.” The Treasury is continuing its investigation and the controversy will doubtless be revived. Thig action was similar to_that taken in connection with the temporary embargo on Soviet lumber. Treasury officials were un- able to prove that either the pulpwood or lum- ber shipped to this country were products of convict labor, and therefore gave the im- | Dorters the benefit of the doubt. It is not | denied that podlittcal prisoners are forced to work in the lumbering and mining trades of | Russia; but agents of the Soviet in this coun- 'try contend that such produéts are not being ' shipped to the United States. The future policy of the Government in re- gard to these imports will doubtless turn upon the facts yet to be uncovered. Since the jnited States has no diplomatic relations with the Communist regime in Moscow, those facts will be difficult to obtain. But the law specifically directs the Secretary of the Treasury to prescribe such regulations as may be netessary for the enforcement of this embargo provision. It is not to be supposed that the Treasury will let the matter drop be- cause it can not at this time prove that the ‘law is being viblated. Senator Gerald P. Nye is skipping | investigating the in primary cam- paigns. He has had no trouble in es- tablishing the fact that in most States a nomination costs money. In some cases several hundred thousand dollars have been spent for that distinction, and in others, the cost has been negligible. But in general the findings of the cam- paign inquiry committee suggest that ‘in populous States a successful cam- paign must be backed up by somewhat ‘of a fortune. Campaigns were not so expensive be- | ‘fore the direct primary came into vogue. ‘Under the convention system the aspir- ‘ing candidate did not have to convince so many constituents of his ability and -statesmanship. Now he must appeal to ‘every voter in his party, and that costs ‘money. This is one defect of the direct ‘primary, that was apparently not fore- ‘seen by the reformers who secured its -adoption in 45 of the 48 States. — —3 mary elections between the middle of With 20 States holding senatorial pri- ‘July and the end of September, and “with Senator Nye.probing ever deeper into the use of money for political in- fluence, the States will no doubt do a “good deal of reflecting on their reform achievements in the next two months. ‘In fact, some States have already re- -pented their action. Idaho and New =York have reestablished the convention “method of nominating candidates for a A study by the National League of Women Voters reveals that during a single year nineteen States initiated movements for ‘repeal of their direct primary laws.

The delegates really had little to do with the selection of party standard- This gave rise to a popular demand that the whole membership of a party be allowed to choose its candi- dates, and the direct primary followed. Before the direct primary was given a thorough trial it was impossible to see that if a select group attending a political convention could not control nominations it would be impossible for the entire membership of a political Instead of selecting slates for the conventions, the invisible powers now select them for the pri- In theory the primary offers ‘bearers. party to do so. maries. any member of the party an opportu- “ nity to seek office, but the heavy ex- penses. involved make political aspira- tions a luxury.

The people as a body are but little interested in political affairs.

A special senatorial committee will soon inaugurate an investigation of. the so-called postoffice lease scandal. Whatever may be its findings, one fact will stand out: The $17,000,000 a year that the Postoffice De- partment now pays for rentals is entirely too much. The annual rent for the Van Buren Street Station in Chicago is $360,000, -and the sums paid for the use of buildings in New York, Philadelphia, Newark and other cities are almost as large. Postmaster Brown is prepared to recom- mend that the Government, in order to save these sums, erect its own buildings in the large cities where buildings now are leased. |His recommendation, if it is adopted, neces- sarily will mean a reduction in the amount available for new postoffice construction in small towns and villages. Congressmen representing rural communi- ties and smaller cities may possibly fight the recommendation. Postoffices have enabled many a man to retain his seat in Congress. If a given sum is available for postoffice construction, it will have far more effect on elections if it is distributed for the construc- tion of 50 small postoffices than if it were utilized for the construction of 5 large offices. | Economy, however, demands that the offices by small groups, and doubtless will con- |¢ a there | is ground for — “og for which large rentals are being paid be replaced by Government-owned offices and that smaller offices get along for the time being in their present quarters, RESTRICTING AMERICAN CARS. The talk of the imposition of a “quota sys- tem“ to govern the importation of American automobiles by European countries need not be taken too’ seriously. The project was broached a year or so ago, but fell through, and now, it is said, a modified proposal has been advanced and discussed in deepest se- cret by representatives of the various na- tiens that Would be affected thereby. Briefily, it is proposed that each country shall impose quota restrictions governiig the number of automobiles produced by other states that may be imported. Thus Germany might fix on a quota of 1,000 cars, whereupon the United States and any other manufacturing nation would have the right to ship 1,000 cars to Germany each year. The United States, of course, would be hardest hit by such a scheme, inasmuch as Many more cars of American make are sold in Europe each year than of all other foreign makes com- bined. American cars enjoy wide popularity abroad because they are generally more satis- factory than the product of European fac- tories. They sell in competition with Euro- pean-produced cars despite the fact that re tively heavy import duties must be paid them. In most European countries the Ford, for example, sells in large numbers at a price higher than that of the low price domestically produced cars because it is sturdy, compara- tively powerful, Jong lived and generally sat- isfactory. The virtues of the American car as compared with the European are such as to make any proposals for boycotting them impracticable. If Europe were producing cars as satisfac- tory as the American, it might be possible to impose restrictions limiting the importation of the latter. If Europe had been able to produce motion pictures as satisfactory. as the American, the various restrictive schemes that were under discussion for several years might have been put into effect. But the European audience was not satisfied with do- mestically produced pictures; it demanded American films and its demands were largely responsible for the breakdown gf the film re- striction schemes. Europeans will not be satisfied unless they can obtain American cars and they will not permit their governments to impose restrictions on their importation. ADULT EDUCATION. Dr. Robert E. Raup, professor of the phi- losophy of education at Columbia University, gave expression in a recent address to a thought that is steadily gaining recognition. “Our public school system,” he said, “‘is based on the false belief that the education of chil- dren and of young people can provide a guar-. antee for a desirable quality of adult life and citizenship.’’ It is a grave fallacy, he added, to suppose that childhood learning can pfe- pare the individual to cope with the problems of mature life. ‘ “The country is not spending too much in education,” Dr. Raup said, ‘‘but we are de- ceiving ourselves by thinking that in spend- ing this large amount of money we are get- ting genuine public educatidn. Genuine pub- lie education’is a matter of adults tackling * of ee eee a the business of shaping and reshaping their present environment, and becoming masters of themselves in the process.” This is more than a plea for adult education. Dr, Raup pictures children trying to imbibe learning that can only be mastered by adults.’ Thus training is wasted on them in youth, and when they reach maturity the learning process is brought to a halt. | This picture is unquestionably exagger- ated; yet it contains a very poignant criti- cism. The schools are making excellent prog- ress in fitting their curricula to the capacities of their pupils,.but the education of the av- erage adult still ends before he reaches ma- turity. This deficiency is also taken care of to some extent by the growth of adult edu- cation movements. Thousands attend night, afternoon or summer schools, but compared with the total adult population the number is negligible. Under present conditions it appears neces- sary to look beyond the schools for agencies of adult education. Dr. Raup mentions the newspapers, magazines, motion pictures, ad- vertisements and public forums. He might have added the radio, literature, museums and travel. But education that comes from these sources is casual and unsystematic. It often ignores’ fundamentals. Some source of education that will definitely center the attention of adults on; their problems as such is needed. If learning is confined to childhood. one’s attitude toward life is essentially distorted. The world is moving so rapidly that under no circumstances can a person leave school with the feeling that he has learned all that he will need to know. If leisure time becomes more plentiful, as economists say it will, sys- tematic adult education will be substantially facilitated. * “ a NEW ENGLAND SOIL From. the Boston Transcript. Some who have read the recent republica- tions of the writings of the early settlers in Massachusetts—the words of Winthrop, of Bradford, of Thomas Morton and others— may have been surprised by the frequent Panegyrics in those writings of the quality of the soil, and their accounts of rich and spon- taneous production. The most fruitful land on earth,” these original settlers called the hinterland of Salem, of Boston and Plymouth. The Massachusetts Bay region was universally described as a région where the earth had only to be tickled with the hoe to laugh with the harvest. In recent literature we are not accustomed to read of any such luxuriance. On the other hand, we hear only of the sterile soil of New England—of our stern and rock- bound coast, and our sandy or stony farms where a scanty crop is wrung from barren fields. Reading these old glowing accounts of assumed fertility, the present generation may be inclined to wonder whether those old fellows were the smooth real estate agents of their time, seeking to sell their easily ac- quired acres at a good rise to no less easily beguiled purchasers in old England. The founders of the Commonwealth must be acquitted of any such selfish propaganda. The simple fact is that the founders were |. right at the time they landed, but their praise of Massachusetts Bay soil rested on the ex- cellence of the thin mold which the forest had been making for centuries; and when that surface mold was exhausted by a few years of cultivation, the soil was found to be anything but rich. Already, by the year 1630, the Pilgrims of Plymouth had, so to speak, got down to hard pan with their hopeful agricultural operations; they had skimmed the forest mold from the surface, and were raising corn only by the aid of the carcasses of alewives caught in Plymouth Bay and planted in each hill of maize. Their younger men were pushing back into the swampy country at the back of Plymouth and Dux- bury, where now are the towns of Pembroke, Halifax, Hanson, East Bridgewater and Abington, where a richer soil was to. be found, but with laborious drainage. It is scarcely an exaggeration to say that a hundred years of cultivation had reduced the “fruitful’’ Mas- sachusetts Bay and Plymouth colonies of the first settlers to a bed of gravel. And by that time the best farmers of the colony had scat- tered themselves through the Connecticut and Merrimack valleys, and certain promising re- gions of Maine, in search of richer fields. The logical proceeding, in every country, when superficial cultivation has thus ex- hausted the primitive goodness of the soil, is to turn in and make the soil rich again with fertilization. To some extent this process has taken place in New England, particularly with the growth of the dairying industry. A dairying country need not fear the exhaustion of its soil. But in New England’s case the re- covery of the soil was checked by the settle- ment of the rich lands of the West, and the competition of a more favored region. The present writer has seen, in southwestern Iowa, a black, alluvial or prairie-mold soil which goes down, without the loss of a unit of energy, to a depth of fifteen feet. What New England field could compete with that? But a new day, we are sure, has dawned for New England agriculture. Means of fertilization are soon to be offered to us which will turn sterile land into fertile. We shall recover our lost nitrogen from the air. There is no rea- son in nature why the day should not return that will once more justify the old Puritan governor’s statement that “‘the earth here be very fertile.” JUST A MOMENT. By STEPHEN B.

CHECKERS AT CONEY ISLAND. Checkers, sport which the movies invariably portray as being played by two rustics on a board over a cracker barrel in a village store, has suddenly reached the status of a “house game” at the booths in Coney Island, where New York’s millions seek diversion. What is more aston- ishing, says the St. Louis Post Dis- patch, is the way city dwellers hand over their dimes at the booths bear- ing placards, “Ten cents a game, lose or draw—free if you win.” So, for 10 cents a game, the met- ropolitan takes his lessons from the “house men,” bucking their variable ability instead of the fixed percent- ages of other games of chance and skill. The intricacies of the Bristol Cross and the Ayshire Lassie open- ing, the danger of falling into the Goose Walk, the giving of one man to get three and the forming of‘ one combination after another have a restful appeal for the many evening bridge victims who trump the part- ner’s trick or fail to take the part- ner out. And then, too, 10 cents a game for relaxation and a chance to get one’s money back beats $10 a lesson on how to make the most of an eight of clubs on a no-trump bid. | JUST FOLKS | MIND AND WILL.

W By ROBERT QUILLEN HEN I was-a small boy, a traveling horse doctor came to our town and made headquarters at one of the livery stables. I was one of an admiring throng that watched him pull teeth one morning, and the thing that impressed me most was not his strength and skill but the apparent indifference of the horses. I recalled the scéne during the early days of the great war when I saw a motion picture of a Russian dentist extracting the defective teeth of peasant recruits. He moved with the deft precision of a hen picking up corn, and his victims—great, stupid looking creatures with clipped polls—set with their jaws spread wide until most of their molars were yanked out, and then grinned and did a jig step to show how little saad had sut- 4 fered. I don’t know about horses, but I do know that all men have nerve systems much alike and suffer similar pains when their nerves are tampered with. One man who has a tooth pulled suffers just as much as another; one broken leg hurts just as much as another; one man’s aching head feels much like every’ other head that aches. How, then, do you account for the evident fact that some people seem to suffer more than others? Does one man bellow because he is a calf and another sit quiet because he is a hero? In some instances, perhaps; but all of us react to stimuli in much the same way, and as a rule the man who groans most is suffering most. His pain isn’t greater, but his imagination is. The horse and the Russian peasant felt the actual pain and no more; the “high-strung” and sensitive man suffers the same pain, but it seems more terrible to him because he is more keenly aware of it—as he is more keenly aware of everything. The ‘“faith-cure’’ people—now called psychologists—are on solid ground. When they soothe the patient’s imagination, he finds it easy to endure the actual pain that is left} Those with delicate sensibilities suffer needlessly. Control of their imagination will give relief, as a passing circus parade. a ‘small boy’s toothache is relievd_ by * (Copyright, 1930.) THE ONCE OVER TOM THUMB GOLF AND THE THEATER.

Cleanliness, to Do Away With Taxes and, Perhaps, to Help Im pecunious Policemen. To the Editor of The As New York desired to learn better ways to dispose of municipal waste, Dr. George Soper, sanitary engineer, took a trip abroad to, learn a few cleanliness from European cities. Upon his return, Dr. Soper told newspaper correspond- ents that anybody in Munich who drops a tiny piece of paper like a bus ticket in the street is told courteously by_a policeman to pick it up and put it into one of the refuse baskets. The offender must pay the police- man a German mark, the equivalent in municipal tidiness. It is not re- garded as a fine for the policeman is merely the cost of the policeman’s service. In other words this bit of advice which is purely a matter of mark. Dr. Soper said that it ap- peared to him that neither the citi- zen nor the policeman seemed to teke the matter as cause for resent- ment. It is a recognized fact that it is the duty of the policemen to help keep the city clean. If such & system were adopted throughout the United’ States, the Treasury woum / be filled to overflowing 25-cent contributions and Uncle hag would be able to abolish all taxes, der if it costs a mark to throw @ cigarette butt on the, street in The penalty must be the same for all offenses relating to un- tidiness.

Bulls feared the business upturn ex- pected during the next month or two might not come up to their sanguine hopes, while bears, on the other hand, had a disconcerting inkling that it might. The market did not come to rest, however, until the bull ieauers, who had engineered the rally from the lows of June 24, received a stunning blow on Wednesday, in the form of one of the sharpest reactions since | mid-June. Trading gw ye the week, however, was S ight, at the end of the week was the —9 in four years, as most market operators oy up in disgust and left town for e week-end. Simce the rally reached the end of technical limits on July 18 the market has been unable to make definite progress. Twice threatened prices were driven up to those levels, only to meet overpowering selling. On Monday the index of 90 shares re- corded a level slightly above July 18, but in the next two sessions it dropped 6 points, and has managed to rally only about a point since. Efforts to bring about a decisive reaction, however, have soon petered out, After selling off a few points, the market for the past fortnight has turned extremely dull, and shorts have been unable to cover without causing a substantial rally. Steel Reports Published. In the meantime, much theory and little fact concerning the business prospect has been appearing. The quarterly reports of the two leading steel producers made their apearance, but were too close to Wall street esti- mates to influence the market. Some observers placed a highly bullish in- terpretation on a statement issued by the finance committee of the U. 8. Steel, expressing the belief that fe- cession in operations had ended and that output would increase during the remainder of the year. Wall street, however, apparently takes it for granted that the bottom of the decline has been reached, since operations must now be speed- ed up to fill autumn requirements but it ts interested in knowing some- thing about the scope and duration of the recovery. It learned last spring that seasonal fluctuations alone do not make recoveries. The victory of the high tariff party in Canada was used as an excuse for considerable bear selling, as well as renewed depression in cotton and wheat. Late in the week, utilities were sold on reports of electrical power 7 MONDAY, ‘AUGUST Events of the War 13 Years Ago Today AUGUST 4, 1917.

Credit Situation Favorable. The banking and credit situation remained decidedly favorable, al- though gold continued to flow to France and Canada, some $55,000,000 having now left the country on the present movement. This, however, is only about a quarter of the gold that has come in since the beginning of the year, and stocks remain exces- sive. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York in its survey disclosed that one bugbear might be minimized. Coun- try banks have been rumored for some time to be loaded up with frozen loams on security collateral. The New York Reserve Bank reported that of 118 country banks examined in this district, 92 either had no loans or a negligible amount against security collateral, the market value of which had dropped below the amounts of the loans. Only nine had from 5 to 11 per cent of their loans against in- adequate security collateral. Although the month-end turnover of funds amounted to about 8600.,- 000,000, call money did not go above 2 per cent. The amount available at concessions in the outside market, however, diminished.

The reserve banks are expected to support the bull market actively dur- ing coming weeks, to help the move- ment of crops. Raskob Girls Escape Injuries in Car Crash Centerville, Md., Aug. 3 (A.P.).— Miss Helena Raskob and her younger sister, Mary Louise Raskob, daughters of John J. Raskob, chairman of the Democratic national committee, were injured today in a head-on collision between their automobile and one driven by Frank Patchatt, of Queens- town. Mr. Patchatt and his three children received minor bruises. ‘The youngest child, Prances Hatchatt, 3 years old, was taken to the emergency hospital at Easton in a car from the Raskob estate. The accident, which occurred on a dirt road near the entrance of Pioneer Farms, the Raskob summer home. was blamed by Miss Helena Raskob on dust, which had accumulated inches deep since the beginning of the present drought.

TREAGURE TEMPLE LOOKED FOR IN B06 Gold Ornaments Believed Buried in Aztec Ruins in Guatemala. Aoven BY MONTEZUMA Mexico City, Aug. 3 (A.P.).—Stories have been revived here of an enor- | | mously rich treasure, said to haye | been hidden by the Emperor Monte- zuma before he died a prisoner of | the Spanish conquerors of Mexico. It is stated that Thomas Gann, a British archeologist, has started a second attempt to penetrate a swamp in Guatemala in whose midst the ruins of the temple are said to exist. A story even appeared in a local newspaper that the treasure had been found, but this was denied by Jorge Beltranera, a Guatemalan writer. The latter declares that the temple is surrounded by a swamp which, for a white man, is impassa- ble. Beltranera’s account of the treas- ure relates t 35 years ago Capt. John Carmichael, of the British army, saved from death an aged Ind rebel while on a punitive expedition in British Honduras. In gratitude for this the old man gave the offi- cer a gold mt which, he said, came from “the Temple of a Thou- sand Grot * Carmichael’s curiosity was aroused and the Indian agreed to take him to the temple, but first made him promise never to return to it nor to divulge the secret of its location. For 25 years the officer kept his promise, meanwhile conserving a rough sketch map of the route across the swamp. Ten years ago he re- after entering the swamp with an Indian escort was never heard from again. A copy of the map remained in possession of Carmichael’s son, now a resident of Florence, Italy. It was from him, so the story goes, that Gann got the chart for guiding his expeditions. G. 0. P. Committeeman Flies to Mex! Mexico City, Aug. 3 (A.P.).—R. B.

What Today Means to You By MARY BLAKE “LEO.” F August 4 is your birthday, the best hours for you on this date are from 8 a. m. to 9:30 a. m., 3 p. m. to 4:15 p. m., and 10 p. m. to 11 p.m. The danger periods are from 6 a. m. to 7:15 a. m. and 1 p. m, to 2:30 p. m. The world and his wife will have no need to envy other planets on this date, as astrological influences are auspicious for this plane of existence. Do not hesitate to explore new -paths —you may adventure with safety. Dreams begin to come true. The child born on this August 4 will force its way through the world, and will not allow circumstances or opposing relatives to curtail its am- bitions. It will have a clever mind, will be ingenuous, and somewhat pugnacious. It will travel far and wide. Your three redeeming. attractive qualities, intelligence, liveliness and character, are more than skin deep. Pirst, the world generally concedes that you are intelligent, and your good mind will lead you far. It opens the gate to vast vistas which can never be explored by those who are less mentally gifted. You have a re- sponsive, lively mind, quick to grasp a point, and ready in understanding an idea. You are a stimulating, flat- tering companion. You put up an attractive show, of resistance in an work. You are a doer and not merely a dreamer of dreams. Like other clever, lively people, you induce a sense of cleverness and live- liness in those around you. You give rather than expect ddmiration, al- though you receive it —— Your character and mental assets are not quick self-advertisers like looks and “smartness,” may be, but they are al- ways found out, and your charms last. You hold the affection of your friends and admirers. You do not inflict your troubles upon others. Outwardly, at least, your spirits are chronically gay. You are a very bright and cheerful companion, and not an unsympathetic one. You are good because it is not in you to be bad. You ‘are a live wire, but not a dangerous one.

It fell off monthly there- after to a low of .99!) for December, 1929, since then -has fluctuated i t fashion’ between 104 and 107 for the months from January to May, 1930. It has not yet shown a strong rise upward. Similarly, in the depression of 1927- 1928, the Federal Reserve Board in- —2 of industrial production, adjust- » reached a low of 95 in December, 927: see-sawed between 106 and 115 for the ensuing seven months; main- taining a higher average for the pros- perous remainder of 1928, and turned further upward beginning with Jan- wary, 1929. The 1924 Depression. ‘ The unadjusted index of the Fed- @ral Reserve Board showed a level of uction during the depression year srg of 95, compared with 101 and for the prosperity years 1923 and 3 respectively. During the de- ion year 1921 it was down to 67 m a level of 87 in 1920, and it rose to 85 in 1922 This, roughly, answers my ques- tioner. Because, largely, of the en- lightened policy of the Federal ‘Re- serve Board in adjustin ng the flow of credit to the demands business, we had between 1922 and 1929 a remark- bly stabilized price level. The de- _ @line in prices since 1925 has not been especially signi ting the go-called “ ess cle” because other than credit factors were domi- mant to produce the decline. Prémi- nent among these®factors was the de- reasing cost of production, due to arge-scale operations, rapid increase fn the utilization of inventions, stand- ardization of product and simplifica- tion of business processes. Thus in 1926 the level of wholesale / prices declined, while the rate of pro- duction increased. But during the period from 1915 to 1923, inclusive, there was a defintle correspondence (between the rise and fall in the level jee wholesale pricee and .the ups and -_ e : wernt J downs of industrial production. This correspondence persisted duri ae mild depression of 1924, 1926- during the présent business 38 sion. So that reference to the level of wholesale prices, as indicated in the accompanying chart, supplies an- other key to searchers for a time of definite’ business ’ Must Stop Fluctuating. But 4t @ not at all necessary that the curve of wholesale ces should turn upward. All that required is that it shall cease to fluctuate rapidly in either direction. When the price level rises, and especially when it rises rapidly, business automatically e Merchandisers are quick to increase their stocks of goods on a ris- augmen - But price inflation is an unsafe stimulation of busfneas. Wages do not rise with prices. Neither do the pay- ments for long-term obligations. As a consequence consumer purchasing power is ultimately reduced, and the price imfiation is followed by dis- astrous deflation. t is wanted is a steady level of prices, so that busi- ness men can make contracts for the re with the assurance that they are not calculating upon the present level of. prices only to find, when the delivery is to be made, that the level has changed violently.

Paradox of Bank Run And Cash Is Illustrated The paradox of a run on a bank is well expressed by thé case of the man who inquired-of his . bank whether it had c&sh available for paying. the amount of his deposit, saying: “If you can pay me, “I don't want my money; but if you can't, I do. 2d All depositors want to’be sure their money “is there.” Yet it never is there all at one time. Length of Business Cycle. . According to experience in the past, a ‘complete “business cycle” about ten years. That is, ten years is the usual time from the beginning of a prosperous period, through its peak and a reaction, to the start of the next upward move. io THE IRVING F ISHER WEEKLY ) COMMODITY PRICE INDEX Lew 19276 Average 99.1 7.0 Bastund 61.0 Italy 1929-1930 Avg, for week ended Ausust 2.

General Motors. B. V.—What is the outlook for Gen- eral Motors? Answer—Earnings for the first half | | were $2.15 per common share against $3.88 for the same time last year. | Cash, United State Government and other marketable. securities, as of June 30, 1930, totaled $175,693,782, as compared with $127,351,530 on Decem- ber 31, 1929, while net working capi- tal amounted to $290,577,234 against $251,287,782 last December. | General Motors has no bonds or | |bank loans outstanding. Business is well diversified, and the company js |now dependent upon the automobile business for only 50 per cent of its | earnings. Cars produced last year amounted to 34 per cent of the pro- | duction in this country and Canada. Total assets exceed $1,326,000,000, while current assets are three times current liabilities. With the belief that the worst is over in the automo- bile industry, the outlook is viewed | with some optimism. Pacific Mills. Cc. G. T.—How is Pacific Mills re- garded? What shape is the company in? Answer—-The funded debt was re- tired August 1, which leaves nothing but. 396,128 common ‘shares. The program to wipe out fixed charges should strengthen the stock. The outlook for earnings, however, is none too promising. Much time will be required to bring the productive ca- pacity of the textile industry into line with demand. In addition, there is No evidence of any sustained im- provement in consumption of cotton goods, and earnings in the last six months are expected to be less than last year. No dividends are paid on the stock, making it speculative. Blaw-K nox. Vv. L. K.—Kindly give me some facts regarding the Blaw Knox Co. Answer—Blaw-Knox is in a diversi- fied line, catering to the public utility field, road building, bridge, tunnel and subway construction, apd furnace equipment. Six months earn- ings equaled $1.27 per share, against $1.05 last year. Full year 1929 earn- ings of $2.19 are likely to be ex- ceeded this year, as unfilled orders July 1 were 25 per cent ahead of last year. There is no funded debt. Capitalization is 1,322,395, no par shares, and $350,000 subsidiaries’ pre- ferred stock. Dividends are $1.50 an- nually. Blaw-Knox js in strong shape, with current assets, as of last December, seven times current liabili- ties, and cash of $2,155,752. The out- look appears fair.

EVANS | pillow is apt to be more unpleasant vhan otherwise for a baby. An adult asks whether sleeping on 8 plllow makes one round-shouldered. J he answer is no, since round shoul- ‘ers result from poor chest develop- 11uent. But there are errors in pos- ture which may result from the wrong use of this article of comfort. For instance, sleeping on a large, firm pillow tends to cause stooping and also ewe neck. The body of a newly born babe curves markedly. The senile person bends forward to about the same degree. When man is in his prime he stands straight The use of large, firm pillows tends to de- velop that stoop which we recognize as indicating advancing years. Ewe /meck is a forward bending of the back near where it joins the body, and a prominence of a spine of the backbone low down in the neck. The improper use of the pillow tends to promote this deformity. In normal, light sleep a person shifts position every few minutes in order to ease the pressure on certain nerve endings. He bends his body first this way and that, if he is to be comfortable and sleep well. A large, firm pillow tends to splint him in one position. He can not easily twist himself around and find comfort. A moderate number of people have pillow asthma. They are sensitive to feathers and when they breathe while the nose is buried in a pillow the microscopic particles drawn from the feather by the inspired air precipitate an attack. It is possibls for exposure to a feather pillow to qause hives, al- Fhough this is rare. 25 Army officer 27 Construct 29 Took the part of 30 Vestiges 32 Large ocean WOW ae vesse 34 Actin 35 A sunk-fence 36 Quote 37 Prong 38 Initials of a “ aS > to) ra 39 Ill-bred person | -™= — — A Goofus Idyl (Suggested by the Sights at Goofus Beach ) Radiant, handsome, big and strong, Most as wide as she is long, The Goofus Sea Cow must impress All with her quaint loveliness.

South bid one Heart: West (trying to preempt, although it is difficult to do so after an adverse bid has been made) oalled four Diamonds; North bid four Hearts, and that ended the auction. Had it been played in Contract, the bidding probably would have been: South one Heart, West three Dia- monds, and North three or four Hearts, If the former, South might have risked a bid of four Hearts, or he might have passed it; it would be a close choice. While it might be said concerning South's initial bid in either game that he lacked two high-card tricks, his declaration was fully justified because in thé first place his the head of five Hearts is a slightly stronger combination than Ace and four small Hearts, and the holding readily may be worth more than three tricks. The side King-Jack: at the head of four Spades, plus the Queen- Ten of Clubs, more than made up the compensating strength which would justify a dealer in opening the auc- tion. When the hand was played West led Diamonds, winning first with the King and next with the Queen, but the third round was ruffed by Sout4, who then led a trump. East won and led a Club; dummy won, exhausted the trumps; led the Ace and Queen of Spades and put closed hand in with a trump to cash his good Spades, on which dummy discarded his two losing Clubs. Consequently the De- | clarer made four-odd in Hearts and went game. THE CORRECT PLAY. When playing should have appreciated that it was unlikely that South had held more than two Diamonds. West's four- Diamond bid seemed ‘to indicate «a holding of at least seven. . West also must have some side strength; and it must be in Clubs if it is to be help- ful to Bast and West. It was impor- tant tHat this,side strength be de- veloped immediately and that the Crub lead should come from East. So Fast should have ruffed the sec- | ond Diamond and at trick 3 led a Club. It will be noted that this play would haye saved game. (Copyright. 1930.) gar? “BUDGET BOYS” WMAL Every Wed. at 7 P. M.

EW YORK, Aug 3 (A.P.).—The Ebony Kid from Havana, Eligio Sardinias, otherwise known as Kid Chocolate, faces the hardest test of his career at the Polo Grounds on Thursday night when he tackles the Whitechapel whirlwind, Jack (Kid) Berg. Unbeaten as an amateur or pro- fessional and held to a draw only by Joe Scalfaro in his first big-time bout, the 33-year-old Havana Negro will be conceding something approaching 10 pounds to one of the toughest. of present-day battlers. The match was made at 133 pounds, but Berg, by the time he enters the ring, prob- ably will scale close to 137 pounds. Chocolate is not expected to make more than 127 pounds and perhaps will scale even less. . master boxer and a hard hitter to boot, Chocolate rates as one of the ring’s outstanding attractions at this time, but he will need all his clever- ness and punching power to halt berg, a Whirling Dervish on the at- tack.

Giving Babe Ruth credit for a home run, No. 40 of the year, and Benny Bengough credit for smart catching and timely hitting, and making due allowance for some very fine pitching by George Pipgras, it seemed the consensts tonight that Tony Lazzeri won the honor of being the Yankee hero of today’s battle with the Philadeiphia Athletics at the Yankee Stadium. Tony’s bat belched a pair of very timely three-base hits: The first put his team in the lead after a stiff uphill battle against Rube Walberg, noted Mackian southpaw. That was in, the seventh inning. In the eighth the second one came with the bases full axid completely wrecked a ganie which *Acting Manager Eddie Collins had» to.take back to. Phila- delphia and place-at the feet of Mr. Mack. The score was 9 to 3. 35,000 Crowd Gets Plenty Of Thrills. But it wasn’t as 6ne-sided as that. Not at all. Some 35,000 fans had all sorts of shakes and quivers through seven innings of ‘desperate fighting between Walberg and Pipgras, the A’s assuming the lead and the Yankees battling hotly every step to catch up. Pipgras fairly outlasted Walberg, even though the A’s made more hits, for he gave but two passes, while Wal- berg gave five, and four of these were cashed in for runs. In spite of the heat, it was a smart- ly played game, both teams making more than the usual number of sen- sational plays. The Yanks were greatly helped by the presence of Bengough behind the bat. He was there because a left-hander happened. to be pitching for the opposition, and he excelled even his own smart work when he was the Yanks’. star backstop. two ytars ago.

Miss Walker and Mrs. Martinez started with a rush and shortly after the match got under way it could be seen that this team would win han- dily, for its opponents seemed to have lost much of their pep and the dash, especially that which usually marks Miss Krucoff’s game, was conspicuous by its absence. Three sets were needed in each of the morning ‘semifinal matches and both were long’ drawn-out affairs with rather sloppy: tennis played at times. In advancing to the ultimate round, Misses. Dunham and Krucoff defeated the Wakeford-Graham duo, , 6—3, 9—7. As is indicated by the score, the third and deciding set was a thriller, with each. team within set-point on several occa- sions. Miss Walker and Mrs. Martinez ad- vanced to the title round by elimi- nating Misses Kingsbury and Raver, 6—4, 4—6, 6—4. While these sets were close, the winners had quite an edge in the final one. W.

Marberry Out| With Injary For Week Hurler Hurt Wrist, Forearm in Slide at New York. Nats Méet Yanks in ‘2 Games Tomorrow; Kuhel Impressive. By FRANK H. YOUNG ITCHER FRED MARBERRY will be lost to the Nationals for at | least a week, and probably long- | it was learned yesterday when er, Trainer Mike Martin made a careful examination of his right wrist, which he strained In the second game of Saturday's .double-header in New York. While sliding into third base in the fifth inning, Marberry’s wrist and forearm were slightly wrenched Little was. thought of it at the time and he continued pitching. As the Nats’ sixth ended, he called for help and Irving Hadley was rush- ed to the bull pen and warmed up while Marberry went through that round, the relief man starting work in the seventh. Marberry’s injury was thought to be nothing serious at the time and it seemed to be re- sponding to Trainer Martin's ice-pack treatments on the train on the way home. The wrist stiffened Saturday night, however, and the arm was badly swol- len when the big pitcher showed up at the ball park yesterday. Marberry spent nearly an hour yesterday having his arm baked, but indications are that he will not be available for duty for possibly ten days. While the Nationals have not given up their pennant hopes, at the mo- ment they are having a fight on their hands holding second place, and !t is mot necessary to state that the big Texan will be sorely missed at this. time.

The Nationals are scheduled to leave for New York at 4 o’clock this afternoon in order to obtain a good night’s sleep before tackling the Yankees twice tomorrow. Acting Manager Joe Judge is figuring on us- ing Lefty Lloyd Brown and Irving Hadley as his pitchers. these two are at their best, the Nats are hope- ful of repeating the dose they ad- ministered .to Ruth & Co. Saturday, when they captured both ends of a bargain day bill. Phelps Not Impressive As Outfielder. Gordon Phelps, catcher and con- verted to outfielder by the Hagers- town. manager since he was optioned to the Maryland team by the Nation- als, had a day off yesterday, and so came here to work .out with the Johnsons. Both President Clark Grif- fith and Acting Manager Judge took & look at him while Coach Patsy Ghar- rity chased him all over the wide open spaces for fungoes, but they were not greatly impressed and believe that the chubby lad’s baseball future lies be- hind the bat. The Red Sox showed home fans a new shortfielder yesterday in the per- son Of Harold (Rabbit) Warstler, re- cently purchased from the Indianapo- lis club of the American Association. This youngster, who cost the Bean- cash, was scouted and’ bought by President Bob Quinn “ih pérson.” He ig little, but fast, and is reputed to be a good hitter. sive at bat yesterday, though. Kuhel Impressive in Big League Debut. First Baseman Joe Kuhel, high- priced rookie from the Kansas City American Association Team, made his debut as a big league starter yester- day and created quite a favorable im- pression. He was scheduled to play in only one of the two games against the Red Sox, but did so well in the first fracas that Acting Manager Joe Judge decided to let him continue through the second, too. Buhel, who pronouunces his name with ,the “h”™ silent, came to bat in three tough spots for a réokie in the first game and twice delivered with hits. All told, he was responsible for driving home three runs in this fracas, while it was his clean single which propelled Joe Cronin home with the only Washington run in the closing number. Kuhel also looks to be quite a fielder. He accepted 23 chances yes- terday without the semblance of a slip-up, can shift his fget.on the sack like a veteran, and delighted the large crowd in the fourth frame of the first game by cleverly negotiating the double play for which Judge is fa- mous, that of starting and finishing it, first to short to first. All in all, the rookie’s debut may be termed a “howling” success. HAWKINS 1529 Fourteenth St. N.W. Decatur 3320 Conpentently Located on Fourteenth Street eaters several players and a wad of.

PS LEAD IN FINAL GAME Manush, Kuhel ‘Are Leaders of Attack in Opener. — Crowder Gives Only 5 Hits; Russell Nats’ Master in Second, By FRANK H. YOUNG. W “aby ony. first and prob- ably only Sabbath double- header of the year, attracted approximately 16,000 fans yesterday, all of whom leaving the Griffith Sta- dium convinced that there is sound logic in the saying that “even a blind sow will find an acorn once in a while” After having beaten the Med Sox in twelve of their previous 1930 starts, the Nats hopped on the slants of Milton Gaston and Frank Bushey to turn tn an ii-to-2 victory in the opener. Then the visitors turned on Johnson's pennant hopefuls and downed them easily, 7 to 1. In this second contest, the Nats looked just as weak as the Sox had been in the previous encounter. with Jack R'issell matching the fine brand of pitching shown by “Gen- eral” Alvin Crowder in e first game, and with Adolph Liska a_i as ineffective as had Gaston in opener, although his wildness was rn most as expensive to him as were alien blows. Nats Gain on Macks; Yanks Advance. By dividing this bargain-day bill, while the Yankees were beat the Athletics, the Nationals cut the lead- ing margin of the league to 7% gemes, but also saw the Yorkers pull up to within 24 games in the battle for the runner-up berth. Heinie Manush, who cracked out three homers and as many singles in Saturday’s twin-bill in New bine = continued his streak in y first game, having a 1.000 average as a result of three singles, a double and a base on Kuhel, the latter making his fis mejor league debut as a Spencer, playing second “ddl. pene of the latter trio was credited a brace of safeties. The Nats poled out fourteen hits in this eng t, while Crowder held the aliens to but which Webb, ex-Nat, got two. Neither Manush nor any other. Nat did anything with the stick calling for letters home in the nightcap. pose Gh sell granted but five hits, Bluege ting two of these, with Kuhet : in getting a timely blow, scoring Crenin for the only Washington run of this affair. Sox Put 8 Hits te Good Use. The Sox were credited with but eight bingles, practically all being used to score four men whom Liska put on via the four-ball route. Another was a surprise —— _ by Pitcher Russell, who five, of brace of doubles which drove — three runs. After the third there * never any doubt but what the | total in the next, and brought | final figures to eleven by scoring four more times in the sixth. Red Sox Blanked Until Seventh. Then triples by Webb and. a useful out gave them markers of the. game. So was Crowder that, except in this scor- ing inning, only one of the visitors got as far as third, with no others passing first. One was out when the Nats start- ed their first scoring rampage. Rice opened this third by coaxing his sec- ond pass of the game and then fol- lowed, e Manush’s single, a wild pitch, a walk to Cronin, which filled the sacks; Kuhel’s single, an error Todt, West's double and Bluege’s sacrifice fly.

NATS DIVIDE ‘ BILL WITH RED SOX Beaten, 7 to 1, After Taking Opener by 11-2 Margin. Continued from Page 9. Bluege’s lo wthrow out of the dirt to nip Regan. Todt was credited with the first hit of the game, singling past Bluege, who ed in the fourth were Myer’s opening one-baser, Rice’s suicide, Manush’s double and another single by Kuhel. Bushey relieved Gaston after this frame and had no troubles until the sixth, when the Nats staged their final rally of the game. Myer opened this with a single and Rice beat out his intended sacrifice. Both runners advanced on a wild pitch and a walk to Manush packed the aisles. Cronin doubled two home, another counted on Kuhel’s useful out, while the fourth registered on West's sacrifice fly. Liska Encounters Poor Start. Liska atarted off badly in the second game and got no better fast, the result being that the Nats were trailing from the start. Bases on balls starting both the first and second innings figured*in the making of runs when followed by some timely hits and when the submarine ball flinger started the fourth by passing two. Burke was rushed to his relief. Todt’s scratchy deuble and an honest-to-goodness one by Connolly followed before the relieving south- paw could get properly warmed up and the visitors were leading, 6 to 0, when the frame ended. Thereafter, Burke granted but two hits, but one was Russel’s homer in Round 7, while Harry Child pitched hitless ball dur- ing the ninth. The Johnsons only had one man as far as first in the first six frames and then delayed the, game long enough to score a useless marker in the seventh. This came from Cronin’s opening triple and Kuhel’s single to center. After West had hit into a force-play, Bluege singled and Acting Manager Judge thought- that this would be a good spot for Shires. He batted for Ruel, but hit into a double- play and not a Nat saw base-life thereafter. Pirates Defeat Cubs, 12-8; Wilson Hits 35th Chicago, Aug. 3 (A.P.).—Pittsburgh took another reef in the Cubs’ hopes of overhauling the Brooklyn Robins, slugging out a 12-to-8 victory in the final game of the series today The Cubs got away to a big start and led by 7 to 4 when the Pirates went to bat in the eighth Charlie Root blew up in that session and his successors, Fred Blake and Bud Teachout, were unable to halt the rally until eight runs had been scored. Erv Brame was hit hard by the Cubs but stuck it out. Al Bool, Pirate catcher, kept up his home-run streak, getting one, to make it four in the three-game se- ries.

In the Wake of the Game Serena Sg Continued from Page 9. made a pretty one-hand grab for the ball, with two gone in the second. Oliver traveled back almost to the stands to snafe Spencer's long looper with Bluege on first in the second. Bluege did not have to move for Warstier’s liner ending the visitors’ third, After Rice had walked for the sec- ond straight time in the third, Man- ush, for the second time in a row, lined cleanly to right on Gaston's first offering. In the fourth, the big left fielder doubled to left center, scoring Myer with the Nats’ sixth run of the game. West's double in in the Nats’ big third took a weird hop past Todt and caromed to the stands in short right. Had not a fan reached out and grabbed the ball the center fielder would have been credited with a triple. If the “cash customers” want to help the Nats they will confine their ball-chasing efforts to within the stands. In a close game the loss of this base might have cost the Na- tionals the verdict. Reeves ended the home fourth by making a brilliant one-handed stop of West's grasser toward short. Warstler went back on the grass to make a sensational bare-handed stop of Myer’s grasser opening the native fourth, but he was in no position to try for the killing at first. The stop probably prevented Buddie from turning the blow into a double. In the sixth, Oliver crowded Durst while chasing West’s fly. Thinking this made the third out, the left fielder held the ball and started ar- guing with his mate. Meanwhile, Cronin, on third at the time, scored and West was credited with a sacri- fice fly. Had Durst pegged home, he would have had a good chance of nailing the runner, for he~made the catch in very short left. In view of the Nats’ big lead, Os- sie Bluege and Sam Rice were given a short rest, giving way to Jimmy McLeod and Jake Powell, respective- ly, in the seventh. Cronin went over almost to second to make a fine stop and peg of Ber- ry’s grass-cutter ending round 7. SECOND GAME. Liska walked the first man to face him in each of the first two frames and each of these passes was used in the coinage of runs.

Seventeen hits, including three home runs by Hafey, Puccinelli and Pisher, rattled off Cardinal bats in the first game, 6—4; Tri defeated Keilen ana . 6—4. Rusgell’s homer opening the sev- enth was a drive which sailed into the left field stands, striking a fan who was standing at the top of the manhole exit, Ending the visitors’ seventh, Bluege went over in front of Cronin to make a great play on Webb's hard-hit bounder with Oliver scoring at the time.

Annapolis, Md., Aug. 3:—With Lefty Crews, who hurled the Eastern Scout- ing Pleet Nine to the championship over the team representing the bat- tle fleet of the West Coast recently, twirling a nigh perfect brand of ball, although touched up for eight hits, the United States Naval Hospital tossers, of Washington, today de- feated the Annapolis Baseball Club, 7 to 2, at the West Street Arena. Crews was never in danger after the first frame, when Annapolis filled the bases with two out. n then he settled down and Arnold was called out on strikes and Boetticher was robbed in right field for the third out. Boetticher drove in the local’s only to left after Myers Arnold singled. Southpaw Newby Catlins, the local’s fast ball ace, was off color after the first inning.

The Spengler Nine clinched the second series by scoring its fifth straight victory, defeating the Nash Team, 1017, on the West Ellipse field. Sergeant Jasper, which had previous- Two-base | ly gained the first series honors, dis- posed of the Victory Post Team by an 8-4 score in a game which deter- mined the second series runner-up. Spengler and Sergeant Jasper will probably play early this week as the National American Legion rules call for a winner to be declared by Aug- ust 0.

He al- lowed only six hits and fanned four- teen batters. At that, Spengler had as to come from behind. Seven runs, chased across the plate in the fifth inning served to sew the game. Ford was the batting hero for Spengler. He hit a homer and a triple and each time two players were on base. Sergeant Jasper clinched its game with Victory in the ninth inning, scoring four runs for ite 8-4 triumph. — Three home runs marked the game. Wheeler. Thomas and Burke hit for the circuit.

Since 1907 he has given them loving and assiduous care, and in return they mage pos- Sible the dream of his declining years—a trip back to his old home at Samos, Greece, and his paralyzed wife, Xenia. Gus George ts just a little banana man who made good in a big’way. He operates no fleets of ships and re- frigerator cars, but he owns a push cart and despite his 65 years, he can push with the best of them. For years George's banana cart has awaited the exodus of workers in the Justice Department building at Ver- mont avenue and K streets. Rain or shine, hot or cold, his bananas were always on tap. He became a fixture in the neighborhood, his customers included the high and the low and the betwixt and between. Nickels came in slowly but steadily. Then one day last April George disappeared. For months his cart was nowhere to be seen. Some con- Drigo | fore the close of the year. firmed gbanana eaters of the neigh- borhood made inquiries at George's room on Third street, but to no avail. Sadly they went elsewhere for their bananas. Gus George Constantinos Paputsis, who sold enough bananas to revisit his home in Greece, where he left a paralyzed w'fe 24 years ago, with the promise to return. Recently Gus George returned, as silently ag he had departed. Where had ‘he been? To Greece, of course. Hadn’t he promised his poor Xenia that he would return, when the nickels piled up? Xenia looked just like she did when he left her 24 years ago. He had wanted to bring her back with him, but she had pre- ferred to die among her own people. His’ daughter wanted to come with him, too, but she had twelve chil- dren. “Too big family,” Gus ex- plained. He exhibited his bank book with mingled pride and sorrow. Hundreds and hundreds of small deposits had grown to nearly $5,000 on April 1 last. But on August 1 he had only $€.20 to his credit. “All gone,” he said, with a shrug. “One time rich, broke now.” 4 The bank clerk*expressed sorrow over the condition of George's ac- count, but George told him “you no scrry like I do/’ He isn’t discourag- ed, however. He's got a new stock of bananas, and people will always buy bananas. And he has some choice olive oil that he brought back from Greege with him, The only thing that worries him is that he doesn't expect to see Xenia again It will take some time to get nough nickels to go back to Greece. BETTER GRADE Rill, UTILITY BONDS Alot Gain in Two Groups in Face of New Financing for Week Surprises. SALES VOLUME IS SMALL New York, Aug. 3 (A.P.).—Steady improvement in the price of utility obligations in the face of a large CURB UTILITY ISSUES FEATURE IN MARKET American Gas & Electric Scores 20 Points Dur- ing the Week. LACKS DEFINITE COURSE New York, Aug. 3 (A.P.).—The curb market faces the new week with price trends lacking. Speculative sentiment volume of new financing was an out- standing feature of the bond market last week. The advance made by the highest grade utility issues on the New York Stock Exchange during the week was surpassed only by railroad obliga- tions which have provided the leader- ship in the rise in bond values. Bond houses believe this a good sign, as there has been strong competition from new issues which in a fortnight surpassed $2,000,000,000. Most of the utility flotations have been of the short term variety for which there has been an insatiable demand. Bond men say that the reluctance of institutions to bid briskly for seasoned issues, which quickly re- spond to nominal inquiry, and the amount of new utility financing probably account for the thin market in bonds of this description. The new financing so far has not heen a handicap to progress. Eighty-two per cent of the offerings last week, which totaled $118,968,000, was for utility companies. Three is- sues accounted for all but $4,000,000 of the $97,974,500 worth of -utility of- ferings, these being the $50,000,000 General Gas & Electric short term issue, $25,000,000 Pacific Gas & Elec- tric Co. offering and $18,834,500 Ohio Edison Co. loan. Offerings for July contributed $734,- 752.777 to the large volume of bond issues which have appeared this year. Of that amount $228,925,000 came from public utilities. The averages show that the level of bond prices remained close to the year’s peak throughout the. week. Foreign buying of ‘standard foreign dollar bonds, particularly French 7s and 7%4s, enabled them to make marked progress, and several reached new 1930 highs... Another feature was the drop in the new Austrian 7 per cent loan, following withdrawal of support by the offering syndicate. The price fell nearly 3 points below the figure at which the bond was offered, then gained about 1 potnt. The volume of trading-has. been small, which is normal for this time of year, when activity in the bond market is slight. Considerable irreg- ularity characterized the movement of secondary, speculative and stock privilege issues. Nevertheless, bond men say that demand for fixed in- come securities gradually is extend- ing to issues which rank below the gilt-edged class. Time and call money rates during July rested on the lowest levels since September, 1924. The Federal Re- serve Bank of New York points out in its monthly review that the end of July usually marks the beginning of @ seasonal increased demand for Fed- eral reserve credit, which, it predicts, will amount to about $500,000,000 be- Bond buying by banks Is strongly influenced by credit conditiorfs. Representative firms offer many items at exceptional prices in Post was so inert in recent sessions, espe- Cially at the week-end, that fluctua- | tions were virtually meaningless and gave no indication of the market’s in- | tentions. There was further revival of activity in the utilities last week. The group was irregular, with some wide fluctu- ations in issues which have a thin market. A notable performer was American Gas & Electric, whose 20- point advance in a little more than a week attracted only moderate profit- taking. The move in this stock, fol- lowing publication of the earnings statement, was attributed to urgent covering. The available supply of the issue is not large and shorts had to bid briskly when the upturn started Electric Bond & Share was gener- ally steady, and a few other active utilities displayed a similar tendency. Prices rallied moderately early in the week, but sagged in the later sessions. United Light & Power A. which is said to be earning at the rate of about 82.50, was supported around the high for the recovery, although it slipped back a few points from the top. Niagara Hudson and American Superpower eased in the dull markets of the week-end. There ‘was little activity in the ous Cosden was a pod! feature, but otter- ings outweighed buying orders in most of the other favorites. * Industrials and specialties thinned out noticeably as the week progressed and price changes reflected the slacker trading by showing some wide varia- tions in the less active shares. Lerner Stores was heavy, breaking several] points to a new low. Deere was also in supply during most of the week. Short selling was tried with fair success in the investment company group. Goldman-Sachs Trading report for the first six months, showing less than 50 cents a share, was apparently disappointing, despite the stated asset value of $30,.as of June 30, and the stock met liquidation that sent it to & new-low. United. Founders was quiet and ‘firm. . National Investors. was heavy. Two Seriously Injured In Collision of ‘Autos Two persons were seriously injurea when their car was in-a collision: with another at Eighteenth and Mon- roe street northeast yesterday.

Most industrialists are planning on no more than seasonal improv nt during the next month or two, atleast, and are laying their plans with decided caution. Steel Production Qutlook. With the quarterly reports of the two leading steel producers were is- sued statements last week expressing the opinion that production would expand during the remainder of the year. The statement of the finance committee of U. s. Steel gave no in- Gication as to the scope of the ex- pected ..expansion, and President Grace, .of Bethlelrem, explaining that things “Look a little better,” added, “Very little,” . Analysis appearing from important banking sources at the turn of the month were noncommittal, but mild- ly optimistic: The National City Bank found reason to believe that production had been below consump- tion in many lines during recent months, and ‘that increased produc- tion would be necessary to take care of comsumer demand in the fear future. ‘The Guaranty Trust Co. pointed to a disposition on the part of ‘observers generally to look for some progress In autumn, but added, “This expectation, of course, does nob. imply that good business will return at a bound.” The Guaranty Survey pointed out that “Business in the future will not be stimulated oy the urgent need for postwar rehabilitation that bas been such a powerful infuene® in the past decade,” and indicated that this sig- nificant. factor must be considered in any appraisal of future prospects. Commodity prices were still under pressure ‘in spots, but on the whole, continued to. display mote steadiness than during June. Although no: bust- ness Tévival’ is likely while prices are recéding rapidly. Late Upturns in Commodities, Slow recession is not necessarily hindrance. A survey of business an commodity price trénds over the -40 years, published by the Annal shows that business rarely turns u ward during the main~ decline commodity prices, but that it doe not require a rally in commodities: in fact, upturns in business on the average have started eleven months before upturns in commodities. The yiieet market caused some nervo ‘6 during the week, as wheat futures again tumbled to new low levels since 1914.- Cotton was also under pressure, recording low levels not seen since 1921, save in 1926. Crude rubber futures on the New York market tumbled below 10 cents & pound for the first time in the history, of the 4ndustry, in so far as the records of the New York Rubber Exchange show. Corn, however, shot up several cents, selling above wheat. The crop appears to’ have been hurt by the hot» weather more severe than in any year since 1901. The weekly reports as to retail trade during the week varied. Brad- street's concluded that both retail and wholesale trade were quieter, but Dun’s decided that retail trade was somewhat better. -The statistica)] re- ports coming to hand were not very pleasing. Freight car loadings as re- ported for the week. ended July 19 showed. some. gain over the previous week, but. were lowest for the like period in any year since 1922, ‘The weekly failures reports were a little more pleasing,.gand the petroleum :sta- tistics were again more favorable. Bank clearings as computed by Brad- street's for the week ended® July 31 showed a little gain over the previous week, but a drop of 27 per cent from the like week of 1929. 2: Concern was expressed in some quar~ ters over the vi of the high tariff party in the Cang@dian elections, and vee —— of likely loss of trade n tes ran as —* 000,000 annually. —— | Vital Statistics’ | BIRTHS REPORTED.
