Efforts were being made to save some of the 400 tons of freight aboard. Only a narrow point of land sepa- rates Port aux Basges from Grand Bay, the approach to both being almost identical in appearance from seaward. At the time of the wreck— 5:30 o'clock this morning—the fog was so thick it was impossible to see a ship’s length. In the~- half’ light-of dawn the mouth. of Grand Bay was mistaken for the entrance to Port aux Basques, 344 miles to the west, and the steamer ran ashore. All of the passengers were below decks and most of them asleep in their bunks when the ship struck. They were thrown into a near panic by the terrific, uhexpected shock. Wildly they tumbled onto deck, clam- oring in their terror for some word of what had happened. > Try to Crowd Boats. Capt. Robertson, ordinarily first of- ficer of the Caribou, but in command during the vacation of Capt. Tavinor, quickly quieted the fears of the ex- cited, women. Most of the men pas- sengers remained cool-headed and re- assured the panicky ones that all would get ony away from the stove- in vessel. Capt. Robertson ordered all passen- gers to return to their cabins and gather their clothing and other be- longings while the lifeboats were be- ing swung out, This convinced the passengers of their safety as it indi- cated that there was no immediate danger of the ship sinking. « They obeyed the officer’s instructions and order was restored while the boats were prepared for launching, Further reassurance was provided by the fact that there were lifeboats enough for » 800 persons. j When ordered to take their assign- ed boat stations some of the passen- gers were overcome by a second mo- ment of panic. Several attempted to crowd into the first boat launched, although not assigned to it. — captain and officers sharply ordered them to await their proper turns and the rush was checked before danger- ous stampeding began.

When he did not arise, Dr. Thomas’ J. Kennedy, of 3609 Georgia avenue, was called and pronourited him dead. It is said that Pearson had suffered from heart disease. The autopsy was performed by Dr. A. M. McDonald. Suspicion arose that the man’s death was not due to natural causes when investigators found blood on his face near-his mouth. Quill, who is a messenger in the Department of Agriculture, is said ‘to have, during the quarrel, struck Pearson. Quill’s daughter previous had asked neigh- bors to call police. They delayed doing this, however. Quill told police that the argument started when Pearson rushed at him.

The trooper walked across a freshly scrubbed kitchen floor and down into the cellar, where he found the. bodies beside as shallow ‘grave. . Both had been mutilated about the head and body with repeated heavy blows of an ax. The weapon believed to have been used in the killing was found, cleaned and polished, in the rear of the house. Bogue made a full confession, po- lice said. According to the police version, he had been a boarder in Mrs. Roberts’ farmhouse for three and a half years. Then, recently, Ostberg, a molder liv- ing at a Mystic hotel, had come from Hartford and replaced him in the §2- year-old woman's affections. Satur- day night he had returned to find Mrs. Roberts and Ostberg together in the farmhouse kitchen. In a rage he snatched up an ax, he told police, and hacked away at the pair. Then he dragged the two bodies into the cellar, washed the blood from the kitchen floor, changed his clothes and started to dig a grave. But remorse overcame him, and he slashed his wrists and throat with a / carving knife..The wounds, however, were only superficial and Bogue was taken to the State police barracks for detention. Collins, Mrs. Roberts’ other boarder, was asleep in an upper room at the time. When police arrived he dis- claimed any knowledge of the killing. Continued on Page 3, Column 5.

Communication Wires Cut. /Simla, India, Aug. 10 (A.P.).—Raid- ing parties of Afridi tribesmen on Saturday night cut all telegraph and télepphone wires running east and south out of Peshawar. Communica- tion with the northwestern strong- hold was very scanty today. The British and Indian cavalrymen defending the outskirts of Peshawar skirmished nearly all day Saturday with Afridi detachments. At the vil- lage of Sorazai the troopers inflicted heavy casua)ties on the tribesmen. Sniping by expert Afridi marks- men has become a menace to the city. The. tribesmen are apparently being sheltered and fed by sympa- thizers in the surrounding villages. At one time a party got close enough to Peshawar to set fire to a small warehouse containing army telegraph stores. British soldiers sur- rounded them-~and killed half a dozen. The fire was quickly extin- guished. Air Force Field Menaced.

B. J. Sackett; of the Chevy Chase Volunteer Fire, Department, and Lieut.

Replies to President Hoover's invi- tation to twelve governors to attend the conference at the White House on Thursday had been received from all but Gov. Arthur J. Weaver of Ne- Draske.

Four States Affected Less. In issuing the call President Hoo- ver listed Nebraska, Montana, Kan- $18 and Iowa as having been less se- Tiously affected among the twelve States. Unless today’s reports war- Tant, it was said that no additional State heads would be asked to come. Rain was expected in Kansas City, Kan. according to an Associated Press dispatch. Reports from other points in the Middle West and South- west showed scant relief from the hot spell. Showers in St. Louis, Mo., cut the temperature from 100 to 87 de- grees. The readings remained high in much of Texas, although rain fell in the panhandle. ormal temperatures were reported in Oklahoma. Federal weather observers in Oklahoma City predicted a break in the drought. Texas Farmers Hit Slightly. George B. Terrell, Texas commis- sion of agriculturee-in Austin, said there was no immediate suffering in the Lone Star State because of the drought. Farmers, he said, are in little worse sha than they were last year except for the low prices of farm produce. Weather reports gathered from all quarters of the country by the As- sociated Press showed a temperate bélt banding the Northern States from the Golden Gate to Newport. High pressure areas moved across the country, routing high temperatures before them. . Scattered showers, a month over- @ue in some places, fell in the corn territory. Parts of lowa, Michigan, Wisconsin, Nebraska, Illinois and the Ohio River Valley were visited by rain. Falls Also in Rockies. Precipitation was also recorded in the Rocky Mountain and plateau re- gions and in the North and Middle Atlantic States. It was considered too light to be of much benefit to the crops, except in the vicinity of the Great Lakes, where various points had as much as a l-inch fall. Showers fell in the last 24 hours in Hannibal, Neosho and Noel, Mo., and Concordia, Kans. Concern still obtains for the effects of the protracted aridity on the vegetable, grain and livestock trade and the dairy industry. Anxiety is still felt for dwindling water supplies and threatened curtained river navi- gation in many districts. Vegetable Prices Up in New York Drought Has Destroyed Crops of Many Plants, Merchant Says. New York, Aug. 10 (N.Y.W.NS.)— New York, cooled off somewhat today by a shower and breezes after eight blazing days, tomorrow will begin to feel the effects of the heat and drought in its pocketbook. Produce men announced that an acute short- age has been caused by the Dlight on upstate vegetable yield. and ‘that consequently prices to the housewife will be doubled by Wednesday. This, it was estimated by William A. Diegel, president of A. E. Meyer & Co., com- mission merchants, will add at least $1,000,000 a day to the city’s feod bill. Tomorrow also the announced one cent increase in the price of bottled milk goes into effect, slapping another $35,000 on New York’s daily cost of living. The vegetables affected by the drought are lettuce, string beans, green peas, cucumbers, salads and the bunch crops. The blazing sun has destroyed the late summer and faill yield in many sections up-State and has so dried out the plants that a poor quality has resulted.

This point was reached at 4 p.m. Low temperature of 80 degrees was registered at 6 o'clock in the morning. Cooling breezes that fanned the city are credited with the lack of heat prostrations. None were report- ed all yesterday. Most of the city’s populace journeyed to the adjacent countryside and seashore resorts. Some time toward evening they de- cided to come home. Traffic police- men guessed that they all mugt have decided at the same time, for all the highways converging upon the city were gorged with automobiles. Dif- ficulty was had in keeping the traf- fic moving, although officers man- aged to prevent any serious snarls. Long lines of cars poured over the bridges from Virginia, while the most of the traffic coming from the north was superintended by officers on all the arterial highways. Prayers for rain were offered at services in all Protestant and Catho- lic Churches in the city. Special in- tercession was made in all churches of the Catholic archdiocese of Balti- more. .

The occasion was marked only by a birthday cake with 56 candles at dinner and by the presentation of gifts to the President by Mrs. Hoover and other guésts at the week-end retreat. It was a typical Hoover birthday, however, for he has long been op- posed to ceremony upon such occa- sions. The President spent the day quietly in relaxation after the strenu- ous activity of last week on relief plans for drought-stricken sections. Part of the day was devoted to a conference on the drought with Sec- retary Hyde and Vice Chairman Stone of the Federal Farm Board. ‘The coolness of the rugged moun- tain camp was a welcome relief after the heat of Washington last week and the President enjoyed the change. He will leave early tomor- row for Washington to plunge again into the drought problems. King George Felicitates President on Birthday (Associated Press.) King George of England yesterday felicitated President Hoover on his 56th birthday. He sent the following message to the White House: “It is with great pleasure, Mr. President, that I offer you on the oc- casion of your birthday my warmest felicitations, together with my sin- cere good wishes for your continued health and happiness.” Earth Will Cross Path of eMteors Perseid Stream Across Or- bit of Earth 70,000,000 Miles Wide, Estimate. New York, Aug. 10 (A.P.)-—The earth will clash into the heart of the Perseid meteor stream tomorrow night. Flying through space in a stream estimated at 70,000,000 miles wide, these meteors for years have preserved the same thicknd cloud in the same portion of their wide path. Facing northeast, an observed may begin looking for them low on the horizon after sunset, but the best time to look is after midnight, and fairly high overhead. They stream from the position of the constellation Perseus, after which they are named. Their orbit is computed to be nera- ly perpendicular to that of the earth, which spends a month from mid July t)> mid August in cutting across the stream. This meteor river reaches out an immense distance into space. Oswald Thomas, the astronomer, says they travel in an inclosed, ellip- tical ring as far beyond the orbit of Neptune as the distance from the sun to the orbit of Uranus. Thomas’s fig- ures and the latese estimates of Pluto’s orbit would indicate that these meteors travel outward some- where near to Pluto’s front yard. U. S. HOPES TO CUT BRITISH VISA FEES Continued from Page 1. ed waived the rule that each appli- cant for a visa must appear personally before an American consul. The State Department in replay politely but firmly declined the re- quest unless the British would enter into a reciprocal visa agreement for former service men. Ignoring the State Department's rging for such an agreement, the British government in a second note last week pointed out instances under which a precedent had been set by the department in granting previously visas under a partial gruop system. In its most recent note, which has just been handed Sir Ronald Lind- | say, the British Ambassador, the de- | partment has again emphatically de- clined the request unless the British will enter into a reciprocal agree- ment. The British request for the waiver of appearance at a consulate was made on the grounds that the legionnaires were scattered over all parts of the United Kingdom. The department, in refusing this request, pinted out that the American Gov- ernment manitains sixteen consulates | in the United Kingdom, any of which is authorized to issue a visa. Department officials are hopeful the firm refusal in the present in- stance may result in an agreement on waiver or reduction of cost for former servicemen and will eventually lead to a more extensive visa agree- | ment covering all types of travelers.

CITIES IN KENTUCKY One Person Is Killed and Seven Injured; Damage Put at $250,000. LIGHTNING BRINGS FIRES Louisville, Ky., Aug. 10 (A.P.).—A 70-mile gale struck Louisville and surrounding territory last night, killed one person, injured seven. and caused property damage estimated at more than $250,000. The storm hit Lexington a short time later and lightning fired a: barn at the Ken- tucky Association race track. Sixteen thoroughbreds and the structure were destroyed with loss set at $55,000. A 14-year-old Negro boy was killed at New Albany, Ind., across the Ohio River from Louisville, when his skull was crushed by a falling tree limb. The seven persons injured included four Louisville firemen hurt while fighting fires caused by the storm. The storm struck Louisville in the early evening, the rapid sweep of the wind was followed by the wailing of fire sirens in all parts of the city, as anxious property owners summoned firemen to extinguish fires or remove falling trees that blocked traffic at various places. One Louisville building worth 850,- 000 collapsed, and another valued at $25,000 was struck by lightning and destroyed by fire. The loss at New Albany and Jeffersonville, Ind., was set at $100,000. Very little rain accompanied the storm, hence it, failed to break the five-month drought. Light rains fell in Kentucky today but they were of slight value to crops. Ship Inspections Increased by U.S. Passenger Boats Must Be Given at Least Four Each Year. In addition to the regular annual inspection, all passenger - carrying steamships entering American ports must now undergo three reinspec- tions every navigating season or within the year for which the United States Steamboat Inspection Service issues a certificate. This fact was disclosed last night by Dickerson N. Hoover, supervising inspector general, in a radio address over the Columbia Broadcasting Sys- tem. Another new rule recently put into force requires the master of every inspected passenger vessel to drill males—at intervais of not less than three months, in pulling oars in the | ship's ‘lifeboats. In addition, the | crews of motor-propelled boats are ieee to demonstrate their abil- ity in the workin of the enigne and /handling of the boat nuder power.

The charge was preferred against her by Policeman laude Waddell, who reported that the incident occurred during an argument between Mrs. Burford and her husband. PESHAWAR, KEY CITY IN NORTH INDIA, ATTACKED BY TRIBESMEN Continued from Page 1. against Peshawar and that the re- ported intention of the Afridis to storm the city was merely a ruse, spread by spies, to distract attention from a more dwpgerous attack upan the air force field@\at Risalpur. The correspondent; does not say whether the attack materialized. All trains running out of Pesha- awr on the main line to Nowshera have been stopped to facilitate mili- tary operations.

Calcutta, India, Aug. 10 (A.P.).— Several persons were injured today in a fight between Moslems and some civil disobedience volunteers from Peshawar during a dispute at a con- ference of Bengal Moslems. The whole meeting was marked by disorder. Mr. Abdurrahim, member of the All-India Congress committee, opposed a resolution supporting Mos- lem representation at the October round-table conference in London. The meeting promptly howled him down, Fazl Ul Haq, president of the ecnference, appealed to the delegates to show a united front to both the government, which was forgetful of the loyalty and devotion of the Mos- lems, and the Hindus, who were anxious to ignore Mosiem claims,’ I TO-MILE GALE HITS | bodies of William | farmer, PIPER SAYS CAPONE SUPTEME IN GHICAGD “Bugs” Moran Abdicated From North Side Control, ls Belief. KEEPS SMALL RACKETS Chicago, Aug. 10—The Herald and Examiner said tonight that the kill- ing of Jack Zuta, reputed ‘‘brains” of the “Bugs” Moran gang, had put Al “Scarface” Capone in supreme com- mand of Chicago's illicit liquor, vice and gambling operations. The paper seid that Moran had ab- dicated from his steadily weakening control of the near North Side section and that this district was now being run by Teddy Newberry, once a Moran follower, but now affiliated with Ca- pone. Newberry is one of the persons sought in connection with the Zuta killing. The Herald and Examiner offered the following explanation of the sit- uation it said now existed: “At the start of the year, with Ca- pone in a Philadelphia prison, Moran, aided by the Aiello brothers, New- berry, Leo Mongoven, Frankie Foster, Willie Marks, Benny Bennett and Zuta, held sway on the near North Side. Newberry handled the liquor interests of the gang, with Bennett as his assistant, but Zuta is understood to have engineered the demoting of Newberry and the, placing of Solly Vision in his job. Then one night Moran called Bennett for a confer- ence, and Bennett has not been seen or heard from since. A meeting of the gang chiefs was called and de- mands for the removal of Zuta—never popular personally—were made. Moran refused. Foster, Newberry, and Marks thereupon left the gang. Mongoven is believed dead. The Aiellos—reported at the time of Capone’s release from jail to be ready to desert Moran—are thought now to have done so. And Zuta has been slain. This leaves Moran virtually deserted of his lead- ing lieutenants.” The paper understands, it said, that Moran would be allowed to retain some of his minor rackets, such-~as the organization of various labor groups and small shopkeepers. With such a condition in the un- derworld, the paper charged that po- lice had ceased harassing gambling houses, speakeasies and vice resorts and that the Capone gang had gotten back to what the newspaper calls “the serious business of making bigger money than ever before.” Beacon to Herald Royal Birth Soon Huge Fire to Be Lit When Duchess of York Again Becomes Mother. Glamis, Scotland, Aug. 10 (A.P.).— Burning of a huge pile of fallen trees and brushwood which towers above Glamis will convey to remote villages far into the heart of the Grampian range the news that a child has been born to the Duchess of York in gray Glamis Castle, when the eagerly-awaited event occurs. Villagers had expected to be able to dash up the slopes of Hunters Hill and light the beacon before now, and they share the eagerness felt all over England will enable them to do so. They be- lieve that the pile may be fired at any hour. The Duke of York has been stay- ing close to Glamis Castle and home Secretary Clines, who must be in the house when the birth occurs, has re- mained close by. Villagers believe these signs are not to be ignored, and that soon the hilltop flame that in old days would have an- nounced the advent of some hostile raiding party will proclaim the news that a royal prince or princess has been born, Twin Murder Seen In Finding Bodies Remains of Farmer and Wife Discovered in Grave by Four Youths. Stow, Mass., Aug. 10 (A.P.).—The Stefanovicz, Stow and his wife, missing since May, were discovered in a shallow grave in a woodlot near the farm by four youths late today. Detective Ed- ward P. O'Neill said it was a double murder. The youths were attracted to the spot by the barking of a hunting dog. The disappearance of the couple first attracted attention from State and county authorities this week. Joe Stefanosky, a farm hand, employed by Stefanovicz, had told neighbors the couple had gone to Chicago. Meanwhile he took charge of the farm and disappeared a few days ago, Po- lice said he took with him $800 cash in rents and the proceeds from auc- tioned cattle. The discovery of the bodies re- called the disappearance of a pre- vious owner of the farm, “Tiger” Hale, 70 years.ago. He was believed to have been killed, robbed of $4,000 jand his body tossed into quicksand. for the word which, Oe, aS ; 4 — CHITICZES POLAND incident Feared as Official Expresses Grief Over Boundary Cut-Up.

Death to Agriculture. His article was taken as in the na- ture of an official party declaration. He said any such attempt against the corridor would mean the economic cutting off of Poland from the rest of the world and a death sentence for Polish agriculture and industry. Pacifists of other countries, he said, were maki of the corridor problem, but he de- scribed propaganda for cession of the corridor to Germany as “not peace propaganda but war propaganda.” Paris, Aug: 10 (N.Y.WNS.).—tIn recent Russo- hegotiations in there was talk of military collaboration between Germany and Soviet Russia, and also of the Polish question and the Danzing corridor to the sea, according to reports received here from Berlin.

Less was heard, however, of be gen German delegation working in Mos- cow at the same time, also under the direction of Raumer. While the main delegation concentrated on dis- cussion of commercial and economic questions, the other is said to have discussed matters of a political and military nature with a view to de- velopment and extension of Ger- many's existing conventions with the Soviets Now that Germany’s chief preoc- cupations on her eastern frontier are removed by evacuation of the Rhine- land and the putting into operation of the Young plan, the Reich is rep- resented as turning to eastern fron- tier problems for solution. She therefore’is thought to regard tight- ening of her relations with Russia as desirable. Broad hints of an alliance in the making are given, while ]’Intransi- geant, Paris newspaper, connects the Russo-German negotiations with Moscow’s ambitions in Poland and Roumania. (Copyright, 1930.) Dry Repeal Plank In New York Seen Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler Predicts Action by State Convention. New York, Aug. 10 (N.Y.W.NS.).— Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler prophe- sied today that the Republican State convention this year will adopt «a declaration in favor of the repeal of the eighteenth amendment. Probably 60 per cent of the mem- bership of the convention—by Sep- tember, perhaps 70 per cent—will favor such a declaration, he said in a statement issued from his summer home at Southampton, ng Island. If there are drys who l they can not support the candidates of & party pledged to repeal, they are not Re- publicans but prohibitionists, he said, and “both logically and ethically” should join a separate party. He estimated the possible Republican loss from such an exodus at 100,000 votes. Dr. Butler has told friends that he will press for the approval of a re- peal plank, similar to that of Dwight W. Morrow in New Jersey, and that if he is defeated in the resolutions committee he will carry the fight to the floor of the convention. U. S.

Squadron Leader R. 8. Booth is in command and a number of distin- guished Canadian officers and guests are aboard. The ship is expected to tie up again here Monday night and refueling operations for its return to Englgnd will begin at once. After gliding up the St. Lawrence River, the R-100 sailed over the har- bor of Montreal and started for Ot- tawa along the course of the Ottawa River. The ship was expected to pause above the capital for half an hour and to dip its nose over the Peace Tower in a salute to Canada’s war heroes. Leaving Ottawa, the dirigible was to turn toward Toronto and is ex- pected to reach there at 9 o’clock to- morrow morning. It is scheduled to circle above the city for 30 minutes and continue its flight to Hamilton. The course then is down the Niagara Peninsula to Niagara Falls and back to St. Hubert. Weather forecasts for the trip were favorable, although it was indicated the atmosphere would Be “bumpy.” The work of releasing the airship from its mast was cafried out with ease.

BANK SUPPORT LACKING New York, Aug. 10 (A.P.).—Bulls collapsed uuder the _ scorching drought in last week's stock market, while the bears thrived on it like dromedaries. : The bull campaign launched after Fourth of July found itself back where it started. Save for the lov leyels of June and the first few days of “ly, stocks were the lowest siuce last Christmas. Some prominent bulls decided to suspend operations until after Labor Day. ,The price index of 90 shares lost about 8 points, net, during the week, about three-quarters of which was lost in Friday’s severe decline. The index ended the week at 1608, the lowest since.

Extremely dull periods during the past several years have “usually. been periods of accumulation when the groundwork for a rise has been laid. It used to be almost axiomatic never to sell a dull market short. ‘ Business News Discouraging. Bear drives appear to have been the impelling force for each decline, but severe bear pressure has been exerted only after bulls have failed. Purth- ermore, business mews each time has uraging and prompted some appeared : ped from the start, for in addition to the public being .discouraged after the June drop, some important bankers are understood to have felt that the —— was premature, and while _ it, to have withheld ph su While the effects of the severe drought over much of the country’s best sarge J country remain prob- lematical, this very uncertainty proved @ major bearish factor. On Monday,’ a substantial spurt in the grain mar- kets, predicated almost entirely on crop. damage, was at first glance re- garded in the stock market as of bullish import, but thereafter traders were less inclined to regard far-reach- ing crop failure as favoring general business recovery in. the autumn, al- though it may have broken the dis- turbing depression in the grain markets. Warner Dividend Passed. The crash on Friday came as the result of an accumulation of devel- opments. The omission of the War- ner Bros. common dividend, while forecast for several weeks, was the straw that broke the market’s back, and the cotton market was brought down on top of it by a better than expected crop report as of August 1. The almost negligible public par- ticipation in the stock market was indicated by “failure of huge bunched selling orders to appear ab today’s opening, after a crash such as Fri- day's. Bankers expressed little n- cern over the new decline, pointing out that no general impairment of purchasing power would result. There was a feeling in Wall street at the close of the week that after the readjustments necessitated by this. last line in prices the market would be in for another resting spell. despite the fact that the recent iow level of business has been costing large comimiasion houses severe lesses in maintaining their organizations.

NEW BONDS AVAILABLE New . York, Aug. 10 (AP.).—Sea- soned issues are still the favorites on the bond market. New offerings were small last week and the continued linstitutional demand for high-grade bonds forced prices up appreciably. The gains made by rauroad obliga- tions and to a lesser degree, utilities, set a new high pricé mark for 1930 as measured by the averages. Although the bond market was not expected in most quarters to do more than hold its own during the Au- gust vacation period, prime corpora- tion bonds have been working stgadily toward higher levels. There is a wid@ spread between their.price po- sition arid second and third grade jasues, bud little change in this sit- pea A is expected until the invest- ng public shows more interest. In- ——— are doing most of the bid- ding and are taking only bonds that can be quickly liquidated. The situation last week was favor- able to an acceleration in the upward move. Only $70,940,000 in new offer- ings, including a $30,000,000 note issue, was marketed. Credit, condi- tions amd commodity prices showed little change. In addition new funds were available for reinvestment. Activity Continues Normal. Activity was about normal for mid- ummer. Despite the cautiousness of institutional buyers, their inquiry for standard issues influenced 4 ‘steady advance in prices. Heading the rocession, both in price movement and trading, were good railroad ebli- gations, which on several days set new — for the year in the aver- 2 the ‘toe days the gains made by carrier obligations boosted the aver- age price level to new 1930 highs. .For some time the market has hovered around the mark established last March, but it was not until last week that the spring record was surpassed. Inquiry for foreign bonds slack- ened somewhat and the price level was little disturbed. Stock privilege issues and speculative. bonds moved lower, with some sharp breaks occur~- ring on Friday when pressure in the share market virtually erased the gains made the past few weeks. Savings Bank Deposits Gain. Among the developments of the week which may influence the future course of bonds were the reports showing large increases in deposits of savings banks and commercial finan- cial institutions and the resumption of buying of Government securities by the New York Federal Reserve Bank. ‘The Reserve's action was in+ fluenced by the gold exports and was in line with its policy of maintaining easy credit conditions. Bond men regarded the $273,000,000 iricfease in mutual savings banks de- its during the. first six months as an indication of the huge fund avail- able for investment in bonds. - In citing the large increase in the volume of “other securities” held by banks during the last quarter, the Federal Reserve’ Board said the swing to bonds was natural in view of the yields available, in contrast with low interest rates on open market loans. Bond men expect bank buying will continue until the current ease in money abates. Maria Tavenner, Instructor, Dies Rites for Jackson School Teacher to Be Held Tomorrow.

OPEN A CHARGE ACCOUNT “FINE MEN’S WEAR EISEMAN’S, 7th & F Prophet to Back to God Is Asked TON POST: MON DAY, AUGUST 11, 1980. eee - ET —— — — — — — — — — — Lead U. sr — Crime Wave Exists Because People Are Forgetting _Réligion, Minister From Fort Wayne Declares at Gathering of Masons. Ind., & Baptist minister, discussed the subject before a large gathering of Masons and their- families. His general idea was that the so-called crime wave is only a symptom of the general unrighteousness of the Na- tion. He prayed for a prophet to bring the Nation back to God. A summary o& what Dr. Gunn said fol- lows: “None of you, I am sure, would consider President Hoover an alarm- ist, but several months ago he issued to the country a most alarming state- ment, in which he called attention to the fact that 9,000 human beings were slain in America last year. This is fifty times as many persone as were slain in Great Britain. His statement further said that there were twenty times as many robberiscs committed in this country as in Great Britain, “Our recorg@ for law observance stands no comparison with that of stable nations. Life and property are not safe in this gountry. No one will deny that we have an acute crime problem in the United States. It is more than that. It is not a mere wave. ‘We are facing a national neces- sity of the first degree,’ said President Hoover. “The wave of crime sweeping over the Nation must give us pause to consider if there has not been a subsidence of the founda- tions.’ “This statement gave me great con- cern when it was made, and has been present in my thoughts much of the time since. ‘If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?” “America does not need a reorgani- zation of the machinery which we have set*up for the control of crime. That is not the real remedy for the situation. What our country needs is to come back to the foundations—to a belief in God and to practice of the virtues of religion. Our fundamental trouble in America is a subsidence of our religious faith, teaching and ideals. “The crime wave is only a symptom. Irreligion, irreverence for God, unwil- lingness to be bound by His moral code constitute the real evil. Multi- tudes of our people have lost the sense of God. They have forgotten their maker and are worshiping idols. “It is not to be wondered at that the Nation is cursed with crimes of all sorts in all walks of life and affect- ing people of every grade of society. When people forget God, those things follow as a natural result. When peo- ple turn their backs on the Author of all law and order, and give loose rein to their own evil passions and desires, personal, social, commercial and political integrity go. “On no other foundation, save on now | peop a God of law and order, can a righ- | teous nation be built. We mustcome | back to the foundations of God. “I am no pessimist. I do not be- | lieve that the whole country 1s going | to the bad. But the spiritual condi- | tion of our country is 80 diseased that it is a fertile soil for every sort of iniquity. It is producing an abun- | dant harvest of every kind of crime. which is daily paraded before the country in the daily press. “What constitutes this soil? Minds and hearts and lives where there is no place for God. That is the root of all our troubles, the cause of all lack of morals and “looseness in our social life, which are causing such wide- spread concern. “When people dismiss God from their lives and consciousness they dis- miss every holy thought, every holy ideal, and every holy thing that stays them from doing evil. In the soil of | Godless hearts every iniquity springs, | and what America now needs is to break up that soil and plant God in these arts,and when that is done | you will see a new Nation. | “In Ameri¢a we need no business | awakening. I don’t think any one will say that American business men | are not wide awake. But we do need | a spiritual awakening. We do need a | revival of religion. We do need to get God back into the hearts of the le. “Religion “is. the foundation on which thig American Nation was built The President of Argentina made a study to see why his counfry and why South America generally were so far behind North America. They both had about the same natyral advantages, but our land has far outstripped theirs. | At the end of his investigation he | reached this conclusion: “The Span- ish came to South America looking for | gold; the British went to North Amer- | rica looking for God.” “In these latter times, I think that | perhaps we are looking more for gold than for God. The fathers are being rapidly eclipsed by ideals of money power and material | greatness. Materialism is the curse | of America, The drift of our age is | away from God, from all ideals that have lifted the race up. | “Again I say that I am not a pes- simist. Somehow I can never be- lieve that God is going to let loose of this Nation, that Me will let the United States break down. But you know what happened to Israel. They broke down, says Jeremiah the pro- phet, “because they forsook the cov- enant of Jehovah their God and wor- shipped other gods.’ “Wake up. America! Forsake your | evil ways! Put away your false doc- trines, and return to God! “Oh for a prophet to bring a re- vival of religion to America, to bring us back to our Bible, to restore the old family altar and to lead the peo- ple back to God.” “Corpse” in Auto Seat Found Alive Virginia Police Stop Car on Notice From District Authorities.

Our foreign has dwindled to the lowest trade point in six years. This is due, in part, to the fact that new money obtained by foreign governments and corpora- tions in American markets during 1929 failed to reach the high level of the past five years. The te of this new financing for 1929, accord- ing to the Dow-Jones compilation, was $1,005,551 000,000 less than the total for 1928. Foreign Financing In¢reases. But during 1930, foreign financing in the United States has already ex- ceeded the total for 1929 by almost $100,000,000, The $466,000,000 of for- eign securities market here during the second quarter of 1930 alone al- most doubled the two largest quarters of 1929 combined.

Idle funds in our banks are being used to help create what Thomas W. Lamont char- ‘ acterized as a “new epic of economic and political peace in Europe.”. Commodity Decline. Faster. American exports have been dwindling as a consequence, partly, of the dwindling foreign loans; partly because of the world-wide business recession with falling price levels, which would have been bolstered up by such loans, and partly because of retaliatory tariffs. The foreign financ- ing of this year, accompanyifig the new plan of commercial reparations, should stimulate the European mar- ket, with renewed demands for Amer- ican goods.

The tendency of the age is to check the increase in pulation, and there is every indication that\the birth rate will continue to decline. It should be noted that during the last fifteen years, while the world’s population was increased by 10 per cent, production of foodstuffs and raw materials increased 25 per cent. The tendency is not toward food shortage, but toward annoying surpluses. Improved methods of cultivation, applica- tion of science to the soil and better meand of food conservation Nave greatly extended the productivity of both the individual farmer and his farm land. The end of these im- provements is by no means in sight. It is impossible to predict what science will contribute to the food supply. But the theory that life will be sustained by syn- thetic food in tablet form is as improbable as it is obnoxious. The body demands food in bulk form, and the eating of such food is one of the foremost sources of enjoyment. So long as agriculture can be extended (and that appears to be indefinitely) there will not likely be any drastic changes in the form of | human food. The world probably would have little difficulty in doubling its supply if that became necessary. ¢ But there is not the slightest indication that it will be necessary by the year 2,000. A glimpse at the great open spaces of the two Americas and Aus- tralia, to say nothing of what might be arc- complished by modern methods in Asia, and even Europe, might add an incongruous chap- \ ’ nf ter to the British scientist’s theory. | BATTLE OF KING’S MOUNTAIN, The forthcoming journey of President Hoover to South* Carolina will recall one of the epic battles of America’s struggle for in- dependence, a battle which some historians have held to be the “turning point of ‘the American Revolution.’’ This was the bloody engagement of October 7, 1780, at King’s Mountain, in which a force of untrained and undisciplined patriots thoroughly whipped a force of British militiamen and Tories, and thus smashed Cornwallis’ campaign in the South. The President goes to King’s Mountain October 7 to take part in the celebration of the 150th anniversary of that battle. His presence will focus attention on an event that too often has been overlooked or minimized in history textbooks, In the spring and summer of 1780, things looked black indeed for the American cause. Charleston had fallen, and Cornwallis seemed about to subjugate the entire South. In the summer, Col. Patrick Ferguson, one of Corn- wallis’ most trusted officers, went into the region of King’s Mountain In search of Col. my | Elijah Clarke, a daring American patriot. For 'a time, it seemed as though the British might continue on to North Carolina, and it was this threat that led to the memorable battle of October 7. In September, 1780, there gathered at Syca- more Flats, near what is now Elizabethton, Tenn., a band of warriors, who, from a Sar- torial standpoint, presented a strange con- trast to the British red-coats. Mountaineers from Virginia and the Carolinas, they wore leather-fringed hunting shirts, moccasins and leggings, and coonskin caps. Each man car- ried a hunting knife and a rifle. Some of the officers were armed with swords, but Col. William Campbell, who headed 200 Vir- ginians, carried an anciernt“claymore that had come down from his Scottish Highlander ancestors. On the morning of September 26, the mountaineers listened to a fiery sermon by the Rev. Samuel Doak, a pioneer Presby- terian clergyman. He sounded the Biblical battle cry, “The sword of the Lord and of our Gideons,”’ and the men echoed it lustily. Then they set out over the mountains and through the forests on a grueling forced march to King’s Mountain. The charge up the ridge, which was made by men who had been without sleep-or rest for 48 hours, was accompanied with a wild war whoop. Campbell's detachment at first was repulsed by a British bayonet charge, but it soon was reassembled. Thereafter the men fought Indian fashion, dodging from tree to tree, and pouring a deadly fire into the ranks of the enemy. Other American detachments were equally successful. The Tories tried to surrender, but Col. Ferguson, a gallant officer, furiously cut down the white flags they sought to raise. In the end, Ferguson himself was killed, to- gether with 206 of his men. Of.the re- mainder, 128 were wounded and 600 taken prisoner. The American losses were much lighter—28 killed and 62 wounded, Gen. Washington in his ‘‘general orders” hailed the victory, and Congress acknowl- edged the country’s gratitude to the men who had won it. Thomas Jefferson declared that the battle turned the tide of success, and ‘‘terminated the Revolutionary War with the seal of independence.” MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS.

FUTURE OF DIRIGIBLES. ~The flurry of excitement that arose from publication of stories to the effect that the Navy, in the interest of economy, had can- cefed the contract for the second of the two dirigibles to be built at Akron. Was speedily silenced by Secretary Adams. No decision has been reached as to whether or not the second ship will be built, he said. The ZRS-4, which is now building, is scheduled for de- livery in 1931. Two months are to be given over to trial flights, following which the de- cision as to whether or not it will be worth whilg to go ahead with the ZRS-5 will be made. The Navy has an open mind on the question of,*he value of lighter-than-air air- craft, said ¢he Secretary. Dirigibles unquestionably are still in the experimental stage. The R-100, which re- cently was flown from England to Canada, is the last word in Zeppelin construction, but her builder and hes commander admit that she falls far short of perfection. To be ef- fective from the military standpoint or prac- ticable commercially the dirigible must be larger and speedier than thus far it has been possible to build her. Because the ZRS-4 and 7ZRS-5 will be larger and speedier than the R-100 and will more closely approach theo- retfeal perfection in other attributes, it 1s wise to continue the construction of the for- mer at least. Assistant Secretary of the Navy Ingalls has faith in the future of the dirigible from the military standpoint. In the course of a speéch delivered recently at Cleveland he ¢éomipared the airship with the cruiser. It takes something over three years to construct a cruiser, he said, whereas a dirigible can be built in less than a year. The cruiser costs approximately $15,000,000, as compared with less than $3,000,000 for the rigid air- ship. The cruiser, it is true, has an esti- mated life of twenty years, as compared with ten for the airship, but its annual operating cost is a third larger. Cruisers and dirigibles would perform similar functions in war. Theoretically, it is possible to make out a good case in favor of the airship. In practice, the dirigible might not prove as effective as the cruiser. There is no way to find out except through actual experiment. which is to say that it is impera- tive that the Navy build dirigibles. Simi larly, there is no way to tell whether or not the dirigible will be a commercial success ex- cept through actual operation of these craft over trade routes. The ZRS-4 will be the experimental medium for discovering whether or not lighter-than-air aircraft properly be- long with the fleet and it probably will be used for experimentation over trade routes. SOVIET EXPORTS Be From the Wall Street Journal. As one temporary expedient substituted for another, Assistant Secretary Lowman’s de- cision to admit Russian pulpwood may an- swer the purposes of the moment. It does not dispose of a question which is obviously becoming a serious one for numbers of Amer- ican industries. In its simplest terms, that question fs whether or not Russia is sending us goods produced by men and women working under any kind of degreé of compulsion. Under our faws there happens to be a distinction between the products of “convict” labor, which may be excluded by Treasury order at once, and those of ‘“‘enforced” labor, which do not become excludible until January 1, 1932. In their practical commercial effect, of course, these two legal classes of mer- chandise are one, Mr. Lowman’s decision means that the Gov- ernment imposes the burden of proving the use of enforced labor upon those who seek to exclude the merchandise in question. That is a familiar rule of procedure, borrowed for use in the Instant case from the law courts. But it is not established as applicable here by any provision of our tariff law and in the case of Russia there is the gravest danger that its continued observance may wholly defeat the sole purpose of Section 307 of the tariff act. Indeed, so important has Congress considered the question of unfair foreign competition that it has gone further and provided safe- guards in Section 303 against the importing of bounty-fed goods. Bounties are of many kinds, some of them cleverly hidden. Returning to the question of facts and proof, the Treasury will sooner or later have to face the doubtful reliability of even the most official statements from Soviet sources. Neither Moscow, Archangel nor the lumber camps of the interior are open to foreign ob- servers. Thus the Soviet industries and Americans doing business with them are now offered the opportunity. to brush aside vitally important provisions of the tariff act by the simple expedient of making statements. One way to answer the controlling question of fact is for the Treasury Department to make continued imports of Soviet-produced } The Biggest Loafer of Them All.

That, you will say, establishes a vicious and hopeless circle, for shat- tered nerves cause worry a3 worry causes shattered nerves. But it isn’t as hopeless as it seems, for worry can be prevented. That is not a Pollyanna platitude, based on the assumption that a sufficient exercise of will power will enable you to think of cheerful things and forget misfortune: It is a simple statement of fact. Worry can be prevented by locking the stable before the horse is stolen. A clear €onscience doesn’t worry. In almost every instance, worry is nine parts remorse. You worry because misfortume has occurred or is threatened as a result of your failure to do your best. You never worry if you have no reason to reproach yourself. Efficiency depends on normal nerves; normal nerves depend on freedom from worry; freedom from worry depends on a clear con- science.

Latest Suggestion—Terrific Explo- sions, Annually Appropriated for by Federal and State Governments, to Induce Rain. . To the Editor of The Post—Sir: Aa we have not had rajn in 40-odd days, I am hereby offering a weather sug- gestion as to how to make it rain. Let me say, first, however, that our Federal and State governments would have to “approprifite a large amount of money for this wurpose. If the appropriation could be made, the money certainly would be more than refunded in the saving of human life, saving of cattle and of crops. I propose periodically to make it rain through concussion, or air- vibration, caused by the firing of multitudinous cannon, and of other high-powered explosions, with the use of dynamite, powder, nitroglycerin, nitroleum, gasoline, oil, &c. - Outside of the use of thé cannon, there are other means that JI could design, or invent, for this heat control. Service stations, forts, sky rockets and aeroplanes would play an im- portant part in this work. This would be opening up a new industry for the oil and powder come- panies, manufacturers of, various equipment, c. Besides comfort, there would be @ good circulation of money generally, and a Nation-wide return of good times and prosperity. Let our United States senators, congressmen, governors, State sena- tors, farmers and the public get busy, - and let's _see if 1931 will be as hot and destructiv as 1930. LLOYD CONWAY.

The British government, says the Winnipeg Tribune, is disposing of 18 more prisons for which it has no further use. This makés.a total of 26 prisons in England and Wales which have been closed since the war. Statistics show that Britiam has escaped the “crime wave” which has swept so Many other countries since the war. ‘While there has been an increase in recent years in minor of- fences punishable by fines there has been a very heavy drop in major crime, particularly in homicide and other crimes of violence. This is the more remarkable from the fact that during the past nine years Britian has been suffering from a persistent economic depression which has brought thousands to the verge of starvation. There have been industrial conflicts which culminated in a general strike. But this strike passed almost entirely without vio- es ¥ POSTAL IMPROVEMENTS. The Postoffice deficit has subjected that department to official scrutiny. Postmaster General Brown has given a good deal of his time to ways and means of making the postal service self-supporting. A plan has been launched for construction of postoffices in the larger cities where the Government is paying exorbitant rents, and efforts are being made to reduce all rentals to a fair value when new contracts are entered into. The department has just completed a sur- vey of nineteen of the largest postoffices in the country with a view to placing them on a better business basis.

The Circuit Court of Appeals reversed the decision, and ruled they were eligible to citizenship. Both Prof. MacIntosh and Miss Bland refuse to bear arms in defense of the United States and can take the oath of al- legiance reservations. Miss Bland objects on the ground that fighting is not consistent with the Christian religion. Prof. MacIntosh is not a conscientious objector to- ward all war but he refuses to bear arms unless he considers the cause of the United States to be a righteous one. A fundamental! issue is involved. called liberal thinkers seek to dodge the real issue by pointing out the fact that Prof. MaclIntosh a divinity professor and that he served as chaplain in the Canadian army. All this is beside the question. Prof. MacIntosh is attempting to secure the privi- leges of citizenship without assuming its ob- ligations. He would set himself up as judge __ gs to whether any war in which the United States might be involved is justifiable. If he thought this country to be in the right, he would serve, otherwise he would not. would make himself a sort of one-man sub- stitute for Congress. The fallacy of such a position is too ob- vious for comment. Carried to its ultimate eonclusion it would mean that a poll of citi- zens would have to be taken in event of mar: those who thought the cause of the United States righteous would defend it, and the remainder would not. No other conclu- sion can be reached unless it be admitted that the Government is willing to grant spe- ial privileges to some aliens to induce them to become citizens. £ .This case involves the duty of every citizen to defend his country. “It presents ‘the ‘ques- not therefore without is a and a group of Southern cities. A uniform system of collection and delivery of mail is being installed in the large cities. Heretofore, each city has had a system of its own.

A uniform system of accounting has been, worked out, and an effort is being. made to eliminate night work for clerks and carriers. No postal employes are being dropped from the service, but vacancies caused through re- tirements and resignations are being allowed to go unfilled in the interests of economy, ex- cept in offices where the volume of business is sufficient to demand new appointments. It is apparent that the Postoffice Depart- ment is making every effort to apply business methods to the postal service, and to reduce The so- | He | the deficit to a minimum. This action is commendable. When every economy has been made the public will not object to supplying the remainder of the deficit from the Treasury. PLENTY TO EAT. It must be amusing indeed for those pro- ducers who are struggling to raise their heads above the depressing surplus of food- stuffs to read the prediction of G. P. Bailey, British scientist, that a world food shortage in the next 70 years will make a change in the human mechanism essential. Maybe Prof. Bailey is just trying to be optimistic. Yet he says in apparent seriousness that un- less science can substitute a tabloid food for the bulk that is now consumed three times a day, there will be a depressing famine by the year 2,000. : This fantastic prediction is based on two erroneous suppositions: First, that the pop- ulation of the world will increase much faster than it has in the past. and, second, that the production of food will not keep pace. Prof. | Bailey estimates the world population in the [ rear 2,000 at 4,000,000,000, Inhabitants goods conditional upon the results of an in- vestigation to be made in Russia by repre- sentatives of its own selection. A goyern- ment which considers it necessary to examine the books of French manufacturers"te obtain trustworthy evidence of production costs can not justify its acceptance of unverified state- ments concerning Soviet Russia as conclusive. Possibly the absence of diplomatic relations between the two countries would add to the difficulties of such an inquiry, but it only emphasizes the danger of trusting, as Mr. Lowman seems. to do, to the representations of a movement which in its own country pro- fesses other fhan commercial aims in the con- duct of its foreign trade. Russian goods should not be excluded merely because wé do not atcept the political and social ideas of the dominant Russian group. But American and western European travelers in Russia assure us that a wide- spread assault upon the economic structure of the United States and other so-called capi- talistic countries, by invading them with underpriced goods, is avowedly part of the Russian communist program. Whether they can ever hope to accomplish such purposes is not the immediate question. There is reason to believe that they can in certain industries render the existing depression much worse than it is, To such imminent probabilities Washing- ton can not be indifferent. Its contact with the problem of Russian imports has only begun. JUST A MOMENT. By STEPHEN B. STANTON. Consciousness at-its full is without iden- tity, because universal and everlasting.

AUGUST 11. 1930. 4 EW YORK, Aug. 10.—It is pleas- ant te note by the papers that Mr. Alva (Cozy) Dolan, the boy who forgot to remember, has mended his ways and turned the service of his fellow men as a boot- legger in Chicago. The Federal agents recently raided Mr. Dolan’s establish- ment, which is described as a resort of unique design and quiet and re- fined atmosphere, as 1 am sure it must have been, but there is no rea- son to doubt this matter will be sat- always are in the enlightened centers. I always knew that Mr. Dolan had some good in him and that, given plenty of years, he. gould go com- paratively straight. And it is my hope that these paragraphs will be of sOme service in advertising his resort of quiet and refined atmosphere to potential clients, feeling that it is just as ethical to publicize such an estab- lishment as a phoney. prize fight or a tennis tournament between profes- sional amateurs. Precedent Established, Says Pegler. Por all I know to the contrary, Mr. Dolan must live and always, in the old days, it was customary to make mention of the fact in the sporting news when Jim.Corbett, Jim Jeffries, Tom Sharkey or Kid McCoy opened a saloon. The papers gaye due notice to Mr. Dolan’s lapse of memory when he couldn’t recollect just what it was that he said to Jimmy O’Connell about the pool the boys of the Giants team.had gotten up for presentation to Heinie Sand, of the Phillies. And now that he has said good-by to all that sort of thing and turned to use- ful public service it would. be churlish to ignore him and fail to wish him better luck with the raiders in the future. It only Ses to show that if a man has character he will rise to the thing of that sort in time. Mr, Dolan, as a ball player in the Western League many years ago, shoWed oc- casional glimpses of the sterling char- acter which has now begun to prove itself in the humane work that he has chosen. Present in those days as @ second-string baseball reporter in Denver, under. the late Otto Floto, was a juvenile journalist named Gene Fowler, who has subsequently degenerated into a novelist and play- wright.

ASHINGTON’S public court racqueters yesterday defeated the pick of Baltimore’s muni- cipal courts, 9 matches to 6, to gain first leg on the Aaron Straus Trophy, put in ‘competition after the Monu- mental City lads won permanent pos- session of the Backrach Cup last seea- son. A large gallery was on hand to witness tiie play on the Potomac Park courts, and plenty of good tennis was shown. The two teams broké even in the singles matches, winning five each, with Washington clinching victory by taking the decision in four of the five doubles meetings. This was Washington’s third victory in the seven years of play. Bob Considine, of Washington, met Alexander Keilers in the No. 1 singles match, and this proved to be the featuré one of the day. Considine figured to win rather handily and had little trouble taking the first set. Tt was different in the next two, however, the Baltimorean rallying to win the second, 10—8, and then car- rying the third and deciding set to sixteen games before succumbing. Frank Shore Bows To Elliott. Dooley Mitchell, playing No. 2, had ‘little trouble disposing of Elmer Rudy, of Baltimore, in straight sets, but Prank Shore came a cropper in stack- ing up against Bob Elliott. The latter took the first set, a deuce one, but was badly beaten in the second. In the deciding one, however, he came | back with some brilliant tennis and literally played Shore off his feet, winning at 6—2. . Shore also was on Washington's only losing doubles match. Paired with Latona, he lost a three-set match td Welmon and Clabaugh. Summaries: SIN Considine NGLES.

New Motor May Cost And How Ill Trophy St. Louis; Aug. 10 (A.P.).—Edwin C. Loenig, of St. Louis, donor of the challenge cup for the speedboat record between New Orleans and 8t. Louis, tonight received a telegram from Dr. Louis. Leroy, of Meemphis, Tenn., saying it was’ reported there that C. H. Mickler, pilot of the And How III, had installed a new motor in his craft after leaving Memphis. “If Mickler installed a new motor, he would lose any claim he might have to the challenge cup,” Koenig said, adding, however, that he did not know whether the report Mickler had installed a new motor was true. Koenig said he planned to leave here early in the morning for ‘a trip down the Mississippi River to meet the And How III. He said he was of the opinion Mickler had no chance to reach here before daybreak. The And How III left New Oreleans at 9:25 a. m. (Central standard time) Friday. Dr. Leroy’s record is 87 hours and 31 minutes. Tigers Down Red Sox; Whitehill’s 9th in Row Boston, Aug. 10 (A.P.).—Earl White- hill won his ninth consecutive game for the Detroit Tigers today, turning back the Boston Red Sox, 4 to 2. Until the ninth the Red Sox went runless and made only three hits, but in the last frame they combined two singles and a double with a sacrifice fly for a vain rally which netted two runs, Unt the ninth they had gone runiless for 17 straight innings against the Tigers, for they were shut out yes- ABE p Spec. ae he Koenig,ss.

IN THE WAKE OF THE GAME VERILL chased back almost to! the stands In deep center to fasten himself on the end of Miyer’s liner opening the game for the Nationals. 1— 6 | x—18 | Chariey Jamieson, formér National, was credited with the Indians’ first hit yesterday, singling cleanly to cen- ter with two gone in the second. In the home second, Sam Rice, on first, gave the fans a laugh by head- ing for second and then changing kis mind and rushing back to the iziitial sack. Hudlin’s first three walks of the game were turned into Washington runs. Jamieson came in fast to make a mice catch of Bluege’s near Texas Leaguer in the third. Two Nats were on the sacks at the time. The Nats turned in two brilliant Plays in succession in the fourth. After West came in fast to take Mor- gan’s looper close behind second, Ho- dapp rolled sharply to Kuhel. The latter knocked down the ball and Jones took the first-baser’s toss with his gloved hand at arm’s length over his head just as he crossed the sack. Buddie Myer seems to be specializ- ing on swinging bunts this season, having beaten out several. He did it yesterday, opening the fourth, roll- ing an easy one to Morgan, which went as a hit. Roxie Lawson, who relieved Hudlin in the fourth yesterday, is a rookie fresh from the Terre Haute Club, of the Three-Eye League. Myer made a pretty stop on Porter's bounder back of first in the fifth frame, but it proved to be a wasted effort when Jones, covering frst, missed his throw to the sack. This was Myer’s first chance afield.

The latter provided a real test. After forcing a burning early pace the colt looked beaten at the turn for home when Novelist chal- lenged, but two or three cuts from | the whip changed everything.

As predicted, the game was a pitchers’ battle from start ta -finish between Lomax, of Georgetown, and Cuozzo, of the Wonder Boys, with Manager Buck Trundle’s ace having @ slight edge. Little Mickey Harris provided the blow which gave Georgetown the vic- tory when he slammed out a home | run with one teammate on base in | the sixth inning to tie the score. This was the only frame in which Georgetown scored. Givonnetti’s double and singles by Dunigan .and Wiles produced the other two tallies. Lomax Allows Run Lomax allowed a run in the first inning. Crenshaw’s triple and Mc- Connell’s sacrifice fly did the trick. The Wonder Boys registered their other tally in the sixth. McConnell singled and Cuozzo singled, McCon- nell scoring on an error. This was the third mé@eting of the season for these clubs. The other two clashes were outside of league competition. The first clash went thirteen frames without a score and the second resulted in a 4-to-3 de- cision in eleven innings for the Won- der boys. Dunigan proved the most consis- tent hitter yesterday, being credited with three safeties in four trips to the plate. The victory was costly to George- town.

The Bethesda Firemen proved the stumbling biétx of the Tigers, who lost their second straight game by a count of 12-9, while the Chevy Chase Nine had run up & 16-1 margin on the Kensington Piremen in the sixth inning,.~when all hands had to forget baseball for the fire at the Grubb home. With only one game for both the Tigers and Grays remaining on the regular schedule, a play-oq for the league title is expected. The Tigers must defeat the Kensington Firemn next week, while the Grays are faced with the task of overcoming the Rockville Firemen. Knight Hurle Tenth Straight. 2 In defeating Kensington yesterday, Ray Knight, the Chevy Chase mound ace, turned in his tenth straight vic- tory. He is undéfeated in the league. Yesterday, Knight allowed three hits and fanned nine batters in the ab- breviated game. The Grays did some man’s-sized batters in the abbrevi- ated game. The Grays did same man’s-sized clouting. Phelps got four out of four, including a homer. Heider got two singles and a homer, while Perrari came through with @ circuit clout. The Bethesda Piremen were forced to go ten innings to defeat the Ti- gers. The Firemen chased three runs across the plate im the extra frame. Bretles and Frisbie divided the pitch- ing with the latter hurling the latter part of the game. Higgins and Hill got three hits each for the winners. fak. Tig. AB HO AiFiremen.

When he spoke it th @ trifle more than his customary deliberation. “Naturally, the police are going to object violently to the obliteration of any possible clews.

There's no knife there.” “Did you notice a weapon of any kind when — * making your ¢x- amination, ?” “No.” The little line of sweat edged the fine, sensitive lips once more, -“Kit’s rigtht; there’s no knife.” “Then if that’s the case, the mat-~- ter of posture isn’t so important and I think that we might risk moving him. Hanna, I'll not be more than a moment.” Hanna, turning on him those im- mense, strange eyes that had been feeding tirelessly on space, said “I'll come, too.” “My dear. child, that you can do. here. q She repeated, rising as though he had not spoken: “I'll come, too.” Her hand was on his arm, but she walked beside him erect and superb as any Grecian goddess. Lindy’s suggestion. Lindy asked, “Gavin, mightn’t it be a good idea to move the whole sofa without touching—anything? I'm quite sure that it will go through the chapel door. Two of you could take each end and I’ll hold the door open.” “Lindy, that sounds like a real tn- spiration. I’m inclined to believe you Mave the levelest head of any of us!” She murmured with a small, for- lorn smile and gesture of denial: “Oh, I'm like the skyrocket in an emer- gency—I rise to the occasion in quite a burst of glory, but I come down like the skyrocket, too. Please don’t count on me. * * * Shall I hold it oper? now?” “I hardly think that it’s going to be necessary. If you'll just stay near Hanna for a minute, I'll be more deeply in your debt than ever!" Hanna said: “Gavin, it isn't neces- sary for any one to stay with me. I’m sorry that I was so stupid, but that’s all over now.” For all the magnificent tranquillity of her tone, she did not look quite all tight. Under the level brows her eyes stared out strangely on a strange world, the pupils so dilated that the flAawiess aquamarine was almost black. Kit Baird, who had been standi looki down at the twisted handf of violets in his hand, straightened, abruptly, tossed them carelessly intG@| - there’s nothing If you'll just sit eyes to the lovely lady by the table. “What happened to the famous earrings, Hanna?” | She clapped startled hands to her ears and then dropped them, with a tremulous smile. “Oh, Kit, for a moment I forgot and thought I’d lost them. The screw's loose on one of them—it came off in my hand during supper and I was afraid of its falling off some- where in the dark while we were playing, so I dropped them both on my dressing table near the door as we went by on our way to the third floor. “Gavin, you aren’t worried about me any more, are you? You must surely see that I'm quite, quite all right.” He stood eyeing her gravely solici- tous, and then turned steadily to the ugly task before him. “Very well. You and I at this end. Baitd, Sheridan, I think you're better out of this for a bit. Ross at the other—And how about you, Redmond? Can you swing it?” “I've evidently managed to convey a flattering opinion of my qualifica-. tions in an emergency,” comment3a Larry Redmond With a grim twiich at the corner of his lips. “Not that I’m in any position te blame sou! I'm not particularly given to hysterics, however. Careful, Tom—this thing's heavy.” “I ‘think that we cam manage it perfectly if we can just negotiate this corner by the door. The point is to hold it .- © vel as possible, of course.” “There’s a stép down here into the chapel,” said Kit Baird. “Tilt your end up a bit, boys, as we step down— aboyt six inches, at a guéss. That's the idea. Now, steady does it. * * *”’ Chatty ventured a terrified glance in the direction of the fading voices ard then unclinched her hands with a long, sobbing sigh of frelief. Eight little scarlet crescents. stood out sharply on the limp palms, showing the frantic urgency of that pressure. Hanna asked, without turning her head: “Have they—gone?” “Yes, they’ve gone. * * * Oh, Lindy, I don’t think that I'll ever be able to 8 crying again—not ever” . ndy, laying a consoling cheek against the poor wet hand, whis»ered: “Chatty, don’t cry, don’t cry. It will help us all a lot if you don’t cry. We've got to all be brave. or none of us will be able to bear it.” (Copyright, 1930.) (To Be Continued Tomorrow.)

DETOURS ARE OUTLINED Richmond, Va., Aug. 10 (A.P.)— Five hundred miles of soil and gravel roads have been olled to date this year, all of which are in good condi- tion, the State Highway Department announces in its weekly review of road conditions. Highways over the State are good, although soil and gravel roads are very dry and dusty, the report says. Continuing, the report reviews condi- tions in detail as follows: ‘ Route 19, the river road between Richmond and Columbia, has been oiled from Richmond to Goochland Courthouse except for a section of about a half mile at Sabot and a quarter mile at State Farm, where work is now being done on new 'ca- tion. From Goochland about three miles westward the road is now oe ng olled and scheduled to be completed on Tuesday of next week. Richmond-Danville Road Unoiled. On the Richmond-Danville road through Amelia, Burkeville, Keysville, and Halifax, no oiling is under way, and the construction between Wyjllies- burg and ‘Staunton River is in very good condition except that it is dusty in several places. From Richmond to Kilmarnock and Irvington over route 13 to Warsaw and route 37 from that point is all hard surfaced and in good condi- tion. Route 13 from Richmond west to Farmville is also in good condi- tion, with no oiling in progress. On route 23 between Christiansburg and the West Virginia line toward Princeton, surface treatment was be- gun the last part of the week between Blacksburg and Newport, and will probably be completed about the first of next week. It will be kept open to traffic and work will cause no trouble. This project completes the paving of route 23 from Christians- burg to Narrows, and between Nar- rows and the West Virginia line work is going on to the north side of the New River, while traffic is using the regular old road on the south side from Narrows to Glenlyn, which is rough but passable. Detour West of Waynesboro. On route 39 between Richmond and Staunton a 4-mile detour is still in use just west of Waynesboro. Traffic from Waynesboro to Lexington can follow route 809 from Waynesboro to Greenville and avoid this detour. About 6 miles of route 809 is not hard surfaced, but is in very good condition. On route 39 west of Staun- ton, between West Augusta and Mon- terey, oiling has been started and will probably be in progress for the next two or three weeks. This work will cause no trouble and the road will be kept open to traffic. On U. S&S. Route 1, which is paved all the way across the State, several curves are being eliminated just south of Alexandria, but the work is on new location and does not cause any trouble. Between Alexandria and Predericksburg three bridges are be- ing widened and traffic will be taken over the regular bridge on one and over by-pass bridges around the other two. Along the Shenandoah Valley pike, U. S. Route 11, between Winchester and Staunton there are three places where the highway is being widened and these sections are rough for only a short distance. No detours are necessary around these construction projects, as traffic is taken care of over the regular macadam road with- out trouble. Between Staunton and Roanoke the only work going on is just outside Roanoke, where there is a detour of about 6 miles over a good macadam road no longer than the regular highway. Detour Near Pulaski. Between Roanoke and Bristol there is a detour of about 8 miles between PUPPIES AND LITTLE PLAYMATE | Harris & Ewing.

D. J. LEWIS TELLS CAMPAIGN IoaUko Candidate for Seat in House From Maryland District Answers Supporters. Special to The Washington Post. Cumberland, Md., Aug. 10.—David J. Lewis, former member of the House of Representatives and former member of the Tariff Commission, made known his platform today, in his reply to a call signed by promi- nent Democrats of Montgomery, Frederick and Washington Counties that he be a candidate for the Demo- cratic nomination for Congress in the Sixth Maryland District this year. The call came to Mr. Lewis as the result of his record of accomplish- ment in the Maryland State Senate and a member of the House of Rep- resentatives from this district for three terms. Last week he filed papers of entry into the coming primaries in the five counties of the district. Reaffirms Former Position. Reaffirming his attitude of two years ago, when he was a candidate, making old age pensions and the World Court his leading issues, Mr. Lewis takes what is regarded as an advanced step in the solution of the Dublin and Pulaski. Part of this de- | tour is narrow macadam in very good | condition and the remainder is fair dirt road. Two short sections of re- | construction near Marion and near Chilhowie are rough where the new and old roads cross, and between | Wytheville and Marion oiling will be | in progress until about August 15. prohibition question by suggesting a constitutional convention, saying “its decisions and recommendations would likely possess sufficient weight with the States.to carry a solution.” Tariff and unemployment are sub- jects for considerable attention, while one of great local import is what he terms “the plight of the Maryland | mining industry,” now much disc This road is kept open to traffic | y n ussed in Garrett and Alleghany Counties. and is in good condition, and by driv~- | He charges the trouble to “discrimin- ing slowly over the short section | ation in the freight rates.” Mr. Lewis where the work is going on there will be’ no trouble. The oiling on U. S. Route 15, be- tween Culpeper and Orange has been completed, which ends the hard sur- facing of this highway all the way across the State, a distance of 245 miles. Route 80 Is Good. U. 8S.
