CORONER TO RESUME INVESTIGATION TODAY Relatives Seout Theory of Suicide or. Foul Playin Case. ° BELIEVE REALTY MAN KILLED IN ACCIDENT Crumpled Body Discovered in Small Ravine Near Chain Bridge. An autopsy will seek to determine this morning by.what manner J. Ben- son Thomas, 42 years old, Washington Teal estate man, met his death. His body was discovered late yesterday lying crumpled in a ravine a short distance west of Chain Bridge, just ‘ across the District line in Maryland. Discovery of a broken jaw brought an abrupt end to a scheduled autopsy last night by Dr. Cc. E. Hawkes, who was deputized to act in the absence of Dr. W. T. Pratt, Montgomery County coroner. Severe lacerations on the right side of the man’s face had been discovered earlier. The finding of the body ended a four-day search folowing the real estate man’s disappearance about noon Tuesday from his office at 1 Thomas circle. While decomposition had begun, identification was made by meéans of papers in his pockets and a Masonic ring on his finger. Lieut. Edward J. elly,. chief of the -Washington ‘homicide squad, and ‘Beventh Precinct. policemen, who were called, made ~ c _examifiation and then turtied -the body over to Watren ©. Pomphrey, Rockville under- taker and assistant coroner. i, Murder or Suicide Discounted. ‘Theories of foul play or suicide were vigorously discounted last night by Donn Thomas, of 129 Kentucky avenue southeast, brother of the dead man and an associate in business. While he declined to talk to a Post representative over the telephone, his wife, speaking for him, said that stacy were convinced that Mr. Thomas vame to his death accidentaly. Any other belief is absurd, she asserted, as the real estate dealer had appeared ip good health and spirits prior to his disappearance and had no ..nown ene- mies. “I suppose he was temporar'ly un- balanced,” she said. “He had never fully recovered from an accident he had last May.” Lieut. Kelly advanced the elief that Mr. Thomas had taken his own life, though no weapons were discov- ered near the body. State’s Attormey Robert P. Peter and Mr. Pumphrey will be present at the autopsy today together with Dr. Pratt. The lifeless form was discovered face-downward by John J. Keane, 34 years old, of 5310 Carolina. place northwest, manager of the Cantilever Shoe Co., while walking near the banks of the Pa@tomac River on the Maryland. side. — “I had been fishing in the. C. and ©. Canal just above Chain Bridge, and having no buck, I had started to waik through the woods to the river,” declared Mr. Keane. “Beside the ra- vine I walked over an object, and turned around to find that it was a dead man. The clothing was water- soaked and it was in the process of decomposition. I went back at once to a nearby store and told the man in charge, who called police.” Seventh Precinct Policemen J. G. Arendes and L. D. Phillips and De- tective J. E. Burke responded, with Lieut. Kelly arriving a few minutes later. The body was discovered approxi- mately four blocks from the spot on 4 road near District end of Chain Bridge where the aban- doned automobile of Mr. Thomas was found Wednesday night by by his brother, after police were no- tified by relatives of the man’s dis- appearance. . The ignition of the machine had been locked and the keys removed. ‘The gas tank was found empty. An extensive search in the vicinity of Chain Bridge had failed to feveal any trace of the missing man. Mr, Thomas left his home at 3710 Military road northwest Tuesday morning, apparently in the best of ‘gpealth, according to relatives. He “worked with his brother in their of- ficés at No. 1 Thomas Circle during the morning, and about noon was last observed walking at Fifteenth and H streets northwest. Worked Long Hours.

The boxes it was rumored, con- tained a complete record of Zuta’s underworld transactions, but Mr. Swanson said that it would frustrate further investigation if details were made public. In addition to the records, the boxes contained many | diamonds, several gold pieces and other items of jewelry. Giovingo, he stood talking to two policemen.

REBELS ARE DRIVEN TO YELLOW RIVER Chiang Kai-Shek Asserts Troops Will Possess Two Provinces. LOAN OF $1,700,000 BOLSTERS FINANCES Eight Emmitsburg Nuns and Four Priests Reach Safety in Canton. Nanking, Aug. 15 (A.P.).—Victory for Nationalist arms in Shantung and Honan Provinces, including the re- capture of Tsinan, capital of Shan- tung Province, was claimed by the government today in what some ob- servers say may prove the turning point in the civil war. Rebel forces which had occupied Tsinan for nearly two months were driven out and hurled northward. At other points fn the two war-rid- den provinces the insurgent forces were overwhelmed and flung back to- ward the Yellow River. Large quantities of war supplies were left by the northerners in their hasty retreat from Tsinan, said the official communique of President Chiang Kal-Shek, issued at his head- quarters at Liuho, Honan. Decisive Nationalist Thrust. Although some quarters accepted the Nationalist claims with reserve, it was generally believed government troops had entered Tsinan or’ were near the walls. thrust along the Haichow-Tungkwan Railway in Honan Province that Chiang claimed his forces “shortly would be able to drive the rebels from Honan and capture Kaifeng and Chengchow.” The situation at Tsinan resulted in representations from foreign diplo- mats to the Nanking government to protect foreigners and their property in the city. Recently Nationalist air forces bombed the city and killed a score of Chinese residents. Many foreigners fled at the first rebel threat in June. Government Announces Loan. There was a lull in the Yangtze Valley, where formidable Communist forces have threateneed Hankow, Nanchang and Kiukiang. Seeking to bolster its dwindling finances, the government's ministry of finance announced a domestic loan of $5,000,000 Mexican (about $1,700.- 000 gold) had been secured, based on customs revenue. i The government announced $100,- 000 Mexican had been appropriated for relief of Chinese sufferers in Changsha recently looted and burned by Red armies. : From south China the news was less favorable to the government. Communists were continuing their months of oe in Kiangsi Province. Worn by the Red siege of —— which had lasted since March, and fearing the small Nationalist garri- son would be withdrawn, twelve Cath- Olic missionaries arrived at Canton today. They described many Red at- tacks upon the city walls, and be- lieved they were to be renewed. Priests and Nuns Safe.

The air ministry announced early this morning that it expected the British dirigible R-100 to moor at Cardington between 8 and 8:30 a. m. (British summer time) today (2 and 2:30 a. m., Eastern standard time). The ministry at the same time made public a message sent by the R-100 at 10:30 o’clock last night (G. M. T.) (5:30 p. m., E. 8. T.), giving the position of the airship at that time as 52:05 degrees north latitude and 16:30 west longitude, or about 280 miles west of Fasnet Rock, on the southwestern tip of Ireland. The ait- ehip said it was making good time through dull weather, wifh some ee and overcast clouds. The dirigible proposed to cross ‘the first Irish soil at Fasnet Rock and then proceed directly to Cardington Previously the officers of the dirigible had notified the air ministry they in- tended to make Landfall, at Galway Bay, but weather condition changed their plans. An earlier message said. the R-190 was speeding along at 60 knots through fine weather at 6 p. m., G. M. T. (1 p. m., E. 8. T.). Conditions had improved greatly during the past six hours and the airship was main- taining an altitude of 1,300 feet. The messages received prior to that time said that the dirigible was buck- ing wind and bad weather part of the time, with her average speed reduced to 55. miles an hour. Although rain fell bere tonight and @ 30-mile-an-hour gale was swir!- ing around ,the 200-foot mooring mast, the unfavorable weather was not expected to interfere with the anchoring operation.

Reports of continued rains in many sections of the drought area reached the White House yesterday as Presi- dent Hoover received assurances from representatives of three farm organi- zations of support in his program for relief. Meanwhile the governors or their representatives from thirteen States who Thursday formulated with the Chief Executive a far-reaching pro- gram of relief, were en route home to complete the State committees for dealing with the situation. As soon as the banker representatives upon these committees are named théy are to be called to Washingfon by the President to discuss the financing of relief measures.

Diversion of greater quantities of water from Lake Michigan by the sanitary district than the amount fixed recentjy by the Supreme Court, was authorized by Secretary Hurley to diminish the health menace. He also informed Gov. Pollard, of Virginia, that several thousand acres of Artillery ranges would be turned over to the State for private grazing. Mr. Hoover was told by Louis J. Taber, master cf the National Grange; Cc. C. Talbott, chairman of the board of directors of the Farmers Union, who also represented the Farmers National Grain Corporation, and Sam H. Thompson, president of the Amer- ican Farm Bureau Federation, that the relief organization outlined at the governors’ conference was the most workable plan yet presented. They pledged the Chief Executive the whole-hearted support of their organizations and said they were pre- pared to begin immediate cooperation. Montana in Great Need.

San Francisco, Calif., Aug. 15 (A.P.). Californians who achieved fene in art, literature and athletics were re- warded and charitable institutions aided by the $10,000,000 will of former Senator James D.~Phelan, filed for probate here today. Helen Wills Moody, world’s woman tennis champion, was bequeathed $20,000 in appreciation of her “win- ning the tennis championship for California.” She also was given 4 portrait of herself painted by the Polish artist, Sigal, two years ago. The bequest immediately raised the question of whether Mrs. Moody's amateur standing would be endan- gered if she accepted the money. Mrs. Moody declined to comment because she had received no legal notification. Recognition for work in literature won a $20,000 gift for Gertrude Atherton, California writer whose book, “Black Oxen,” created Nation- wide discussion several years ago. The largest single bequest was $1,000,000 for the creation of the James D. Phelan Foundation in Sap Francisco, city of his birth.

Hope of general relief throughout the drought area was revived by the reports of additional rains. Secretary Hyde saw in these not only a help- ful psychological factor for the farmers, but said also the rains prob- ably would rejuvenate much pasture land.

But none of the attending governors | not even the genial Gov. Pollard. from the neighboring State of Virginia, | asked, so far as known, “Why, where is Ritchie?” This, is was pointed out, should be taken as an extenuating circumstance for the White House. It could not have been a case of partisan politics, it was pointed out, because at least two Democratic gov- ernors were invited, those from Vir~- ginia and Arkansas. It may bé that the administration, with Maryland right here under its nose, did not realize the seriousness of tbe drought condition in that State. Weight to this possible ex- planation was given in one remark in the authoritative statement on the matter. Maryland should have been invited, it was agreed in this statement, because the understand- ing is that there are “two or three” distressed counties in the State. This in a way was heaping insult to injury because Maryland, accord- ing to reports, considtrs it is one of the hardest hit States in the Union.

Under the indictment Campbell is charged with wilful premeditation in the carrying out of the crime. The bill contains two counts, one fixing her death through strangling and choking, the other by pistol wounds. The indictment charges the real estate man,;with shooting the girl in the back, in the neck and in the head. Action of the United States attor- ney’s office in presenting the case to the grand jury Thursday afternoon came as a surprise and followed re- rte that Campbell was to be re- eased from Arlington County Jail where he has been held since first taken in custody by Virginia authori- ties. Campbell entered the case several weeks ago when, without warning, he turned over to authorities a pistol which he said belonged to him, but which had been mislaid and just found. At that time he indicated that Herman Barrere might know something about the case.

HIGH CHURCH IRATE AT LAMBETH ACTION One Bishop Disowns Decis- ions to “Clean Soul;” Talk of Secession Rife. BITTER DISPUTE BEGUN London, Aug. 15 (N.Y.WNS.).— From the Anglo-Catholic wing of the Anglican Chureh today came a plain indication of what is likely to be a long and bitter controversy over two of the decisions of the Lambeth con- ference—its declaration permitting the use of contraceptives for “good moral reason” and sanction for inter- communion between the Anglican Church and the proposed United South Indian Church, which will in- clude non-Episcopal bodies. One bi has already dissociated himself with certain conclusions of the Lambeth conference. It is ex- that a statement expressing the view of Anglo-Catholics will be issued, Talk of Secession. There is even talk of “secession” by them from the Anglican Church and it is recalled that a group of leading Anglo-Catholics, including Bishop Gore, signed a manifesto last year declaring that if the South In- dian scheme went through in its present form, they would be unable to remain within the Anglican com- munion. The first bishop to make a public statement on the decisions of the Lambeth conference is Dr. Walter Carey, Bishop of Bloemfontein, an Anglo-Catholic and one of the 67 bishops who opposed the birth con- trol resolution. In a letter today to “The Church Times,” organ of the Anglo-Catholics, he wrote: “When you issue the Lambeth re- port I wish to say, in order to clear my soul, that there are statements in it from which I conscientiously and vehemently dissociate myself.” The publication itself characterizes the birth control resolution as & “positive revolution in Christian moralty.’”’ On the other hand, writing In the “Church of England Newspaper,” ihe Bishop of Ripon, who represents Evangelical opinion, said: “It is the tradition of the confer- ence to sacrifice almost anything for the nearest possible approach to unanimity. But it involves the risk of rating the shadow higher than the substance and forgetting that even unity comes second to truth.” The daily lay press on the whole approves the conference report, though there is some criticism on the ground that its decision show too much “compromise.” Shaw “Not Sunprised.” George Bernard Shaw, in an inter- view here today, said: “I am not surprised by the report. On the subject of birth control the bishops have given way under the overwhelming pressure Of an accom- plished fact. The whole thing is just an attempt to see whether the church can be brought into some relation with modern views. “I do not think the church will gain any new ground or make up the ground it has already lost: I do not see how the church's attitude to this question can be reconciled with its attitude on divorce. The bishops ought to have discarded the prayer- book and the articles of religion and a few other things. Then they would have got near the twentieth century. (Copyright, 1930.) W. H.

The proposed ordi- nance has many drastic features, in- cluding heavy fines and jail terms for infraction of the law, which is aimed to control the stray dog nui- sance. The proposed ordinance also in- cludes provision for a town dog tax in lieu of the present county tax, and the establishment of a dog pound and appointment of a dog catcher. The tax proposed in the new ordinance is the same as now exacted by the county, or $1 for each male dog and $2 for each female dog. : Woman, Sought, Called Pickpocket Annapolis Nurse Believes Person She Aided Took $32 From Purse.

LAUDS VIRGINIA POLICY Charlottesville, Va., Aug. 15 (A.P.). Centralization of State and Govern- ment control in the hands of the governor was advocated before the Virginia Institute of Public Affairs here today by Thomas H. Reed, Uni- versity of Michigan professor of po- litical science. Answering the criticisms that com- parative expenses of government have have not declined in the States that have reformed their governmental system, Dr. Reed said: “Additional expenditures have been for construc- tive services to which people are en- titled. Overhead expenses have rela- tively decreased, which is a consum- mation devoutly to be desired.” Virginia Government Sound. Dr. Reed has conducted round- table discussions at all four institu- tions held here, and said that it was the consensus of his round table on “Administration of Public Business” that recent improvements in Vir- ginia’s State government have been sound. He predicted success for govern- mental reform in Virginia, saying that with the teachings of Thomas Jeffer- son as a background, “it is going on to higher things.” /The theory that steady work at sat- isfying wages automatically creates more consumers than a steady flow of goods at. reasonable prices was ad- vanced by Donald Randall Richberg in discussing the relationships be- tween employe and employer. Preservation of Liberty. Mr. Richburg, a Chicago lawyer, said the business of America is the preservation of liberty and the im-~- provement of human life. “A work-a-day world in which 25 per cent of the workers are constantly menaced with unemployment and in which over 50 per cent do not earn a decent living might reasonably be more concerned with improving its methods of production and exchange than in increasing the number, or even improving the quality of its products,” the speaker said, Other speakers today were Dr. M. PF. Haygood, Tennessee State health of- ficer, and Dr. L. L. Lumsden, medical director of the United States Public Health Service.

SUICIDE THEORY HEARD — Portland, Me., Aug. 15 (A.P.)—The drowning of a policeman while his hands were manacied together with his own handcuffs, and with no evi- dence of violence apparent, has ranges a mystery that county and city officials were attempting to solve tonight. The body of Fairciman Michael T. Connolly, in full uniform, but with the cap m » was found face down in the sand this morning in a little cove, a few hundred yards from the Grand Trunk docks. An autopsy showed that death was due to drowning. Medical examiners said bruises and cuts about the head were probably caused by the washing of the body against rocks. They con- tended that none of the could have been made by blows severe enough to have knocked him uncon- scious. * The possibility of suicide was ex- pressed by some officials, who said the manner in which the handcuffs were placed on Connolly’s wrists in- dicated they were fastened by one accustomed to use the manaciles. Connolly, who was 49 years old and had been on the force twelve years, is survived by a. widow and five small He had reported to head- quarters from various boxes on his beat early this morning. Connolly’s coat was buttoned and none of his clothing showed any signs of a struggle which would have been expected from the 190-pound Officer if he had been set upon by criminals.

GUMRDED N CANADA ' Cargo Is Reported to Consist of 10,000 Cases; Crew Not Arrested. FLED FROM U. S. VESSEL Windsor, Ontario, Aug. 15 (A.P.).— Seized by Dominion customis preven- tive officers, the Canadian steamer Vedas, which authorities allege had a large cargo of liquor, “was tied tp this afternoon at Windsor Dock. ‘The seizure was made near East Sister Island, Lake Erie. Unofficial estimates said there were 10,000 cases aboard, although no liq- uor was in evidence this afternoon, the cargo being stored below decks. Customs officers stood guard over the Doat at the dock. ~ The ship was believed to have been turned k, by the United States Coast Guard when it attempted fo Tun: the cargo into the United’ Sates and was captured by the Cansdian Officers in Canadian waters. Although officials refused com- ment, the crew apparently was not in custody, and several members re- mained aboard the ship. Toronto, Ontario, Aug. 15 (Can- adian Press).—An official of the cus- toms preventive service tcld the Can- adian Press today the seizure of the British vessel edas in Lake Erie was not of much importance, and was the result of a “slight irregularity. No charges have been laid against | 4 the crew. The irregularity occurred, the officer said, when the vessel ob- tained a coastwise clearance from Montreal to a;Canadian port and dis- charged part of its cargo en route in violation of the coastwise shipping law. The official was not certain of the port Of clearance, but he believed it was Port Arthur. He did not know the ownership of the vessel, he said. Ottawa, Aug. 15 (Canadian Press). Officials of the department of na- tional revenue were informed today of the seizure of the steamship Vedas on Lake Erie. The ship apparently _ has been under close watch by the preventive force of the department for some time. She was formerly ‘the Shearwater and was remodeled in Halifax Harbor. It was understood she was being fitted out to cafsy beer from breweries in Quebec and On- tario to government dispensaries along the Great Lakes.

Pre- BROTHERS ARE ‘MARKED’ Cleveland, Aug. 15 (A.P.) —Terrors engendered by the deadly under- world feud connected with the corn- sugar racket here, were described to- night. Raymond Porello, one of five brothers who believe they are “marked” for murder victims, com- mented on the explosion which to- day. wrecked his pretentious home here. Two other Porello brothers, Joe and Vincente, were slain a month ago in a hail of bullets from gangsters waging war for control of the racket. and many others also have been slain im the strife. Joe and Vincente were known as “barons” ip the racket. Victims Blame Enemies. Police were uncertain tonight whether the explosion in Raymond Porello’s home was an accident or committed by enemies. The owner rand his family were not at home when gas or some other explosive com- pletely demolished the structure with fa blast that shook the entire neigh- borhood. The Porello’s believe, however, the explosion was another act of violence by their enemies and admitted they have been living in a virtual seclu- sion of terror since the two brothers fled. Were Staying With Relatives. The escape of Raymond Porello, his wife and two small children from the blast was due to that seclusion. when in this. mood, and, of course, there was the time when he made the street car stop in the middle of the block. MARYLAND LEFT OUT OF DROUGHT PARLEY Continued from Page 1, the situation presented in this serious light. The indications are that no one regretted the incident more than the Maryland Republican leaders who are to contend for the gubernatorial plum this fall. It is taken as a fore- gone conclusion that the Democrats will make capital of the inadvertency. Yet, it was pointed out, it was an easy thing to hap Maryland has such an alr of independence that one is inclined to dissociate it from the her States as being a sovereignity apart. It is from that State that one most frequently hears the demand that the States keep their hands out of the Federal trough. With ‘the State standing off by it- self all the time, it is easy to see how it might not be invited to a parley of States. Coal Crisis Recalled, It was recalled, too, that Gov. Ritchie is one of those fellows Who, when he goes to a party, becomes. the life of it; dominates it, so to speak. President “arding one’ time was threatened with a coal strike in the bituminous- tates. He sent telegrams to the governors of the States concerned ing them to hold their militias in readiness. , Gov. Ritchie came back with a ringing retort to the effect that land does not séttle its strikes by bayonet.” , Then President Coolidge’s prohibi- tiom’ conference of governors is re called. It was a grand and glorious move. All the ~overnors were called here to confer on how prohibition should be enforced Ritchie Disparaged Effort. - Gov. Ritchie attended, and as he left the White House he issued a statement intimating very strongly that the conference was the bunk. In each of these instances where a front page move was initiated by the Presi- dent, Gov. Ritchie got the headlines. It may be, of course, that it was not thought that he would be good at this conference, At any rate, he was not invited, but: he can get in now. All he has to do is to comply, as a matter of fact, with the nine-point pro- gram; that is, name a committee of agricultural, railway and county of- ficials in every county and a similar one for the State. the latter to hook up with the Pederal authorities.

GANGS JESSE Hy BINFORD. MANASSAS KIWANIS CLUB GIVEN PRAISE J. H. Binford, of Richmond, Governor of Area, Tells of Work Done. CAPITAL GROUP VISITS Special to The Washington Post. Manassas, Va., Aug. 15.—Service to the community, rather than more clubs and more members, is the goal of Kiwanis International, declared Jesse H. Binford, of Richmond, Va.., in paying an official visit with Wash- ington Kiwanians to the Manassas Kiwanis Club at its weekly meeting tonight. Mr. Binford, governor of the Capl- tal Kiwanis district, embracing clubs of the organization in the District, Virginia, Maryl and Delaware, pointed out that smaller clubs fre- quently render greater service than larger organizations. In this connection he lauded the agen of the Manassas Club. He particularly praised ite efforts in locating 100 underprivileged children of Prince William County, requiring removal of tonsils and adenoids; and in paying for this medical work in & Washington hospital. He also cited its activity in employing a nurse, who later was appointed by the coun- ty as its official nurse. Kiwanians were invited to a rally of Prince William farmers to be held Wednesday at Bentsville. Farmers of the county also have been invited to a meeting of the Manassas Club on August 28.

TRIBESMEN ARE BOMBED Simla, India, Aug. 15 (A.P.)—The /powerful garrisons on the northwest frontier today were reinforced with formidable contingents of British and Indian infantry, fully equipped to meet an attack threatened by fierce Afghanistan tribesmen from beyond Khyber Pass. — With the arrival of heavy rein- forcements under command of Brig. Gen. Robertson, martial law was pro- claimed ‘during the day throughout the entire Peshawar district. where the situation was described officially as “one of considerable gravity and danger.” How dangerous the border status was could be told only by military and. political authorities on the spot. Dangers Are Apparent. The average layman, however, felt today he had only too clear a view of the situation in the news that’ one British and three Indian battalions were moved from Jhansi to Rewal Pindi, and that a full infantry bri- gade was sent to Nowshore, 25 miles east of Peshawar, with a considerable force of other units going to Kohat. It apparently is true that many of the Afridia have left Peshawar, but, so far as could be judged from the guarded language of the official communique, the problem of expel- ling the gangs of raiders from the dis- trict femained tonight almost as formidable as ever. although there stilijwas nothing to indicate that Peshawar itself was in peri). Meanwhile the action in the air in the locality continued unceasingly. Two squadrons of the Royal Air Force were engaged . yesterday in bombing along the edge of the Ka- Juri Plain and elsewhgse. Troops of cavalry have been cooperating. What remained as uncertain, as it has been for days past, was the ex- tent to which the propaganda of the Afridis had influenced neighboring tribes. That the Orakzais were se- riously affected became clear today. From the Bajur district also came the report of a resumption of activi- ties of that old firebrand, the Haji of Turangzai, whose agents long had endeavored to induce tribesmen to come to the help of the Afridis, although unti} recently with indiffer- ent success. Civil Resistance Problem. A different kind of drama was be- ing enacted far to the southward. Civil resistance leaders, who for the last three days had been debating the possibilities of a cessation of their program with the Mahatma Gandhi at tne Yeroda Jail at Poona, concluded their discussions. As the outcome of their delibera- tion, two of the conferees, the “peacemakers,” Sir Tej Bahadur Sapru and Mr. Jayakar, tonight were bearing a letter to Viceroy Lord Ir- win, which, nominally addressed to themselves, apparently was intended for examination by Lord Irwin. Neither of the moderates would dis- close the contents of this letter. Nor would they indicate the result of their parleys. Mr. Jayakar remained The judge then ordered the case held { in Poona and left it to his com- eer, to deliver the important let- r.

It was not entirely Morello’s fault * he had lived to such an age, for and his brother Ignazio were re- leased only two years ago from At- lanta prison, where they had done time since 1909 over a matter of at- tempting to manufacture United States.currency on a home printing press.

Latterly, the detectives thought— and a boy from the excited crowd outside the building picked up a little notebook with many names set down, and large sums set down beside each, which they thought might have some- thing to do with the -case—Morello and Perranio had been engaged in some species of racketeering in the building trades. Whether Pollard had been associ- ated with them they were not s0 certain, though they had his own as- sertion—takep from his bed in Har- lem Hospital—that he had met the other two to talk business when the two gunners stepped im and started shooting. About all they did know was that witnesses had seen the two murderers jump into a car waiting at the curb, that Pollard had no idea of what they looked like though he was clear enough about other details, and that some of the names in the note book sounded familiar to them. venir but that in their excitement they dropped it on the sidewalk be~ tween the doorway and the motor cif This fact was regarded as in- teresting rather than helpful.

On August 3, the missionaries said, three red flags were seen across the river from Kanchow, and it was be- lieved the reds were preparing an im- mediate attack on that city, but the onslaught failed to materialize. The following day, the defense garrison succeeded in repulsing the Commun- ists, killing 50 and later capturing «a dozen of the red force. A captured spy, the missionaries said, revealed a letter saying the reds planned an attack August 4, The same letter asked the defense forces to join the Commuzpists in raiding the city. City Reds Fully Armed. The missionaries said it was con- sideréd many reds were in the city,, all fully armed, awaiting opportunity to join the attackers. On August 4 merchants sounded alarms indicating the reds wefe pre to renew their efforts to capture the city. The missionaries, therefore, decided to leave at once, and did not learn the outcome of the anticipated red at- tack. A number of Protestant mission- aries were urged to accompany the Catholic group to Canton but the Catholic fathers said they refused. Bishop O’Shea, Deep River, Conn., one French priest, two German Luth- erans and five English Protestant missionaries remained in Kanchow de- spite the danger of the city’s capture, they said. . The Rev. Fathers Cahill, Philadel- phia; Stabil, Syracuse, N. Y¥.; Erbeb, Erie, N. Y., and Curtis, Baltimore, were staying at Taiwoll, a small town southwest of Kanchow, while Fathers Young, Smithtown, Long Island, and McLaughlin, Brooklyn, were staying at Nanan, Kiangsi, and Pather Moer- inger, also of Brooklyn, was at Lung- nan, both of which places were in the midst of a red-infes country. (Associated Press.) Pending a request from the Chinese government for a shipment of muni- tions, the State Department yester- day declined to permit the Du Pont interests to release a consignment of munitions to the Nationalist govern- ment, scheduled for shipment today to China. Department officials said permis- sion. would be withheld until the Chinese legation here requested clearance of the shipment. Thus far licenses for munitions shipments have’ been granted when requested. Meanwhile, reports on activities in three widely scattered areas of China were received last night by the State Department from American consular officers. Planes Bomb Tsinan. The American consul Carl Meinhardt, reported government aircraft flew over the city and dropped a few bombs and fired ma- chine guns Thursday. He speculated that their objective probably was the public bulidings in the middle of the city and both railway stations in the settlement. The planes, however, re- mained at too great a height for ac- curate firing. There were severai casualties, nearly all of whom were civilians. Meinhardt added that the Fu Tso Yi army on the Tsingpu front fell back on August 13 to within 30 miles of Tsinan but was now advancing. Some fighting, he reported, occurred on August 13 about 12 miles from Tsinan, mach*ne gun firing — been heard distinctly. Some 2,500 foreigners are estimated to reside in Tsinan. The American Legation at Peiping upon receiving report of this battle made representations to the Chinese Ministry for Foreign Affairs at Nan- king requesting anew that care be exercised to prevent injury to Ameri- can life and property in Tsinan. Additional Troeps Expected.

One or two of the w governors hint very strongly that they «think this Federal money should be = given outright. Others veil their desire ~ for a gratuity by suggesting that a Fed- « eral loan be made, while others urge the ,, Government to make available at once « the appropriations for aiding State high- =: way construction. »: President Hoover’s statement follow- «ing the conference makes it very plain that he expects the States to look after - their own necessities, to the extent of »; their ability. He favors Federal aid only «in the event drought conditions can not ge be remedied by the resources of a State. * There is no evidence as yet to indicate that any State will be in need of na- ~ tional assistance. The hardest hit State, sit is believed, is Kentucky, but belated wrains there have already helped to re- pair drought ravages, and the fields will syield partial returns afterall. Farmers who feared that they would be without mpotatoes and other vegetables next win- mter are now asstred of hofffe-grown sup- =plies in many cases. They are chiefly win need of help in feeding their cattle. «This situation will be met by reduced railroad rates on feed, and in some cases wcattle can be shipped to pasture at re- educed rates. It does not appear that mthese conditions constitute a national Miemergency justifying a drain upon the wTreasury. ® Swift steps are being taken fo relieve wall human suffering throughout the “drought belt. If there is any such suf- “fering, beyond the power of the States “concerned to provide instant relief, the “Red Cross is ready to step in. It has several millions available, and can obtain Many needed amount by a public appeal. @The country does not begrudge any amount that may be needed to prevent suffering. It is best, however, that help “from the country at large should be “given in the form of public subscription$ &to the Red Cross, rather than drawing Supon the Treasury by strained interpre- Mtations of law. © No doubt enlarged construction pro- *grams applied to public roads would give “much relief in the drought districts, “where unemployment adds to other “hardships. If the Department of Agri- “culture is warranted by law in making “available at once the money appro- “priated for highway aid, this action “should be taken, provided the States con- “cerned will meet the situation halfway. “= In view of the prompt organization “of relief measures, there is no excuse “for emotional appeals to the United “States Government for money with “avhich to fight the drought. Probably it will be found that every drought- ‘stricken State is easily capable of vhandling the emergency that has arisen »within its borders. If it is not, the gen- eral public will stand by with subscrip- _tions to the Red Cross. CHAIN STORE SURVEY. , The Senate passed a resolution two years “ago, calling upon the Federal Trade Commis- “sion to investigate the chain store system for 1 $1,000,000,000 Mthe purpose of determining the extent to HE. WASHINGTON POST: ‘SATURDAY: cvcust: 6x is no atepeting the fact that the system is based in sound economie’principles. But the chain store has become a political issue in many sections; candidates are running for office on a pledge to do something to destroy the so-called monster that drives the inde- pendent merchant out of business, and drains money from the community and transfers it to the financial centers. It is not likely that the report of the Federal Trade Commission will silence the critics of the chain store. It promises, rather, to provide ammunition for further attacks. TARIFF BOLSTERS CORN PRICES. Representative Will R. Wood, of Indiana, has brought a new slogan into the congres- sional campaign. Only a few days ago Jouett Shouse, Democratic executive chairman, an- nounced that his party would exploit that well-known but opprobrious phrase, “the billion dollar Grundy bill.” But Mr. Wood comes back with a resounding shibboleth about the “$500,000,000 corn duty,” that means something quite different. Democratic sharpshooters depend upon their ‘“‘billlon dollar’ slogan more for its popular appeal than its accuracy. It is in- tended to convey to the mind of the gullible public that the increased duties will take out of its closely-guarded On the other hand, Mr. Wood’s new slogan is based on facts and figures which indicate that the tariff puts money into the The tariff act allows 25 cents per bushel protection on corn. If corn had been left on the free list it could be imported from Argentina for 65 cents. The present price, 90 cents, represents a sav- ing of millions to American corn raisers. This incident of direct benefit from the corn tariff suggests the advisability of look- ing into other fields where increased duties have become effective. World markets are in a state of depression. It is reasonable to assume that, were it not for the tariff, Ameri- can price levels would have been pushed down to equal those of foreign countries. It is idle for Democratic campaigners to keep up their pretense that the American tariff is responsible for the 193Q depression. A survey by the Departmtnt of Commerce shows that slack business extends throughout the world, and that the trade of South Ameri- ca has suffered more than that of any other continent. Exports from North America, which means chiefly the United States, held up as well as those of Europe and Asia, and imports into this country remained closer to the normal level than in either South America, Europe or Asia. Apparently the additional protection that Congress extended to American enterprise came just in time to fend off undue competi- tion from cheaper foreign goods. When prices are falling and market conditions begin to be slack, it is a good time to strengthen the domestic producer against competition from foreign cheap labor. In the face of a general depression protective duties are a stabilizing influence in agriculture, industry and labor. It might be worth while for the Republican national Committee to investigate the total saving that has been made possible by the tariff during this time of slump prices. In- dications are that it would far overtop the “billion dollars’’ of which tariff critics prate. purse. pockets of the corn farmers. MOVIE ADVERTISING. Last April the motion picture producers and distributors of America announced, with a fanfare of publicity, the adoption of a new code of ethics designed to purge the movies of objectionable practices. The announce- ment was followed in June by another de- scribing a code of ethics for advertising and publicity managers, the principal provision of which was subscription to the general code of ethics ‘‘based on truth, honesty and in- tegrity.” Nineteen leading organizations, in subscribing to the code, pledged that good taste should henceforward be the guiding rule in their advertising, that illustrations and text should faithfully represent the pic- ture itself, that false and misleading state- ments should not be employed directly or implied by type arrangements or by distorted quotations, and that nudity “‘with meretri- cious purpose” and salacious posters should not be employed. In this fashion were the movies to be purified and the need for public censorship avoided. The movies that have been exhibited since April differ in no essential respect from those that were exhibited prior to the signing of the producers’ code. This, perhaps, is ex- plained by the fact that the code merely out- lined practices that already had been ac- cepted by the reputable producers. It was pointed out when the producers’ code was signed that the need for improvement was chiefly with respect to the way in’ which movies are advertised and otherwise ex- ploited. Now it is becoming apparent that the advertising and promotion managers’ code is having little effect on prevailing prac- tice. Examination of movie advertising as pub- lished in newspapers and magazines gives evidence that the industry has no intention of making illustrations and text faithfully represent the picture itself, and, particularly, that nudity “with meretricious purpose’’ is depended upon to draw throngs through the doors of movie palaces. Disgusting adver- tising is alienating many potential patrons from the movies, LIPTON, ETERNAL YOUTH. wvhich such consolidations had been effected are susceptible of regulation under existing law, and what new legislation is necessary or esirable to effect the regulation and control Not chain store distribution.

For 31 years Sir Thomas has been trying to gain possession of the America’s Cup. So /far as international yacht racing is con- cerned, he jis Britain’s single-handed chal- lenger. Again and again he has crossed the Atlantic to wrest the famous cup from Amer- proved “Shafrock” on which the hopes of Britain_rested. His green racers have gone down to defeat, but the ardor of Sir Thomas lives on, in spite of his 80 years. During these years of competition Sir Thomas has endeared himself to the Ameri- can public. He has come to be the embodi- ment of a quality that every American admires, namely, sportsmanship. ‘The Amer- icans have always beaten me fairly and squarely,” he radioed from the Leviathan “but I hope to turn the tables with the best boat yet.” His perseverance, his buoyant hopefulness and his sense of fairness reveal an admirable character. Américans would hardly hail with delight the transfer of the famous “old mug,” as Sir Thomas calls it, to the other side of the Atlantic. Nevertheless, they will find keen interest in the performance of the Shamrock V in the international races a month hence. Whether he wins or loses, the gallant British veteran may be assured of the enduring regard of the American sporting public. — — TALKIES FOR VETERANS’ HOSPITALS. The installation of sound motion pietures in al] hospitals maintained by the Veterans’ Bureau will be a potent factor in improving the well-being of sick and disabled veterans. Early in the spring of 1929, Gen. Frank T. Hines, director of the Veterans’ Bureau, be- came interested in the project of placing sound pictures in veterans’ hospitals. Silent movies have been‘a regular feature of recrea- tion at the hospitals for a number of years, but sound equipment has only recently been adapted to the needs of the bureau. Gen. Hines detailed his chief of construc- tion, Col. L. H. Tripp, to study the matter, and @& electrical engineer was sent to visit , the various manufacturers in order to obtain first-hand information as to the best type of equipment, costs, &c. After an exhaustive survey of this field, specifications based upon the engineer’s report were drawn up, cover- ing a special type of nontheatrical equipment suitable for institutions. This synchronised sound equipment is complete in every detail and is augmented by attachments which make possible the playing of phonograph records through the amplifiers, so that music for dancing or for religious services may be available to the patients at any time. Installations are under way in a number of veterans’ hospitals, and it is anticipated that all those having recreation halls or other suitable facilities will be equipped by Christmas. Eventually this feature of enter- tainment may be installed in all the institu- tions now under the veterans’ administration, which include the eleven national homes for disabled volunteer soldiers. Washington Letter to St. Louis Post-Dispatch. The old Ford Theater on Tenth street in the Capital—a structure which is as melancholy in appearance as its history is tragic—may be facing its ultimate destiny. On the calendar of the House of Repre- sentatives; listed as unfinished business, is a bill which would make of this historic build- ing a Lincoln Museum. Under the measure $100,000 would be appropriated for the work of reconstruction. It is planned to reconstruct the interior to some semblance of the way it looked when John Wilkes Booth killed the Civil War Presi- dent. The extensive collection of Lincoln relics, now housed in’ the Oldroyd residence on the same street, where Lincoln died, after being brought across the street from the theater, would be moved to the old playhouse. Offices for patriotic societies also would be provided. The proposed new use of the theater would climax a history of a century. The building was erected in 1832 as a Baptist church, and remodeled during the Civil War period as a theater. There never was a play given in the theater after Lincoln’s death. “The Octoroon” was billed, but public sentiment against the show- ing was so intense that the promoters were forced to cancel the engagement. Subse- quently Congress purchased the building. Later another tragedy was enacted within the old walls. Used as a War Department office, the interior collapsed June 9, 1893. Twenty-two men were killed, and 168 injured. During the World War period, the building housed Government overflow. There was an Army recruiting office there until two years ago. | But it is desolate now. The only life with- in its dim-columned interior is the Govern- ment watchman. One is on duty at all hours of the day and night. Perhaps the most kesnly interested person in this latest move to establish the status of the theater is Charles S. Wilson, 83 years old and a resident of the Capital. Wilson claims, and as yet he has not been challenged, to be the only living eyewitness in Washington of the tragedy within the walls of the theater on Good Friday night, April 14, 1865. He was 18 years old at the time, and re- members the incident vividly. There was the report of a revolver, he said, and in the great confusion, he was forced to the street. “TI was dazed,” said Wilson, describing the event. “As I waited for transportation home to where I lived on Capitol Hill, I re- member hearing rumors that Grant and Seward, too, had been killed.” FORD’S THEATER 4 JUST A MOMENT.

As murder becomes popular as a national pas on this side of the Atlantic, says the Houston Post-Dispatch, the English continue to prove that it can be prevented with the righ kind of police officers and a stern sysem of jusice. Accord- ing to the news, only ten cases of murder were reported in London, the world’s largest city, in 1029. One of these murders was committed in 1928 and not discovered until 1929. The Nation quotes Lord Byng, London police head, as-apologizing because his men failed to solve two of the ten murders and because two suspects who were tried were acquitted. In ad- increasingly 37 manslaughter cases, a total of 47, as against 357 murder and man- slaughter cases for the same period in New York City alone, Citizens of London are essentially the same as those of New York. Both are humanly susceptible to emotions of fear, rage, lust and greed, which tend to provoke violence. Firearms, billies and butcher knives are just as plentiful in London as in New York. Yet murder is a rare crime in London because it is punished quickly and drastically. The moral is clear, but we refuse to apply it. JUST FOLKS y EDGAR A. GUE THAT FIRST KISS.

Rhode Island and Virginia Represen- tation in Congress. To the Editor .of The Post—Sir: The article in last Sunday's Post by David Rankin Barbee, en- titled “Agriculture to Lose Many Con- gress Seats,” contained several er- roneous statements of historical fact which I would like to call to your + attention. Quoting from the article: “Rhode Island began Statehood with one con- gressman and from the first census, in 1800, to the last.one, she had two. Now she slips back to her colonial status.” In the first place, the first census was in 1790, not in 1600; the census taken this year beizig the fifteenth census. The article then en- tirely overlooks the fact that after the census of 1910, Rhode Island's | representation in Congress was in- creased from two to three representa- tives, which she has at the present time. By reason of this, she had five electoral votes in the elections of 1912, 1916, 1920, 1924 and .1928. As a result of the 1930 census it is in- dicated that her representation will be reduced from three to two, but not to her colonial status of one, Referring to Virginia, the article states that she reached her nadir in 1880 when her delegation sank to * nine, jumping back to ten in 1890, where it remaimed. The fact is that the nadir of nine was reached in 1870, not 1880, due to the separation of West Virginia in 1863, and it jumped back to ten in 1880, HAROLD LINK. “Benjamin Franklin Boulevard” Would Cause Confusion, Says Cor- respondent.

The house, built in 1797, radi- ates the atmosphere of early re- publican days. It etands on a bluff overlooking the river, af- fording a wonderful view. Old records seem at variance whether it was built by Col. Carberry or Abner Cloud, although they re- yeal that it was leased for 40 years at the rental rate of 10 cents a yéar, which gradually in- creased to $40 annual retital. Here in the elght-room cottage Thomas Jefferson used to come to visit his friend Thomas Main. - Both men were interested in agri- eulture and Thomas Jefferson was so impressed with @ pam ph- let written by-his friend treating of the transplantation and man- agement of hedge plants that he had it published with an agricul- ture article of his own, the pamphlet being printed in Wash- ington in 1807 and is now in possession of the Library of Congress.

Gavin followed the spacious ges- ture toward the corner with eyes fairly luminous with interest. “Did you, now! And just how did you come to crash into it?” “Well, it was black as the pit and | I was feeling my way along the wall, trying to get at the door. I ran bang into the rotten thing—it came slop- ping out all over my ankles like a tidal wave. I got as nasty a crack in the shin as I’ve had im a couple of cycles, too, if that’s of any slight interest to you.” “Of the greatest interest, I assure you.

If involving me means involving Ray, you can bet our life that I’m gol to fight ike a wild cat every time I catch any of you trying to pin anything on me.

I'd be the last person in the world to blame you for a moment for trying to keep free of incriminating évidence—our only difference would be as to the safest method to go about I'm sorry if my manner has been offensive. I don’t want to put in a bid for sympahty, but I pledge you my word that 'm not at all in love with my present job. I have every intention of seeing it through, how- ever. You could help me quite a bit, if you felt like it.” “I’ve been talking through my hat,” said Joel, with fervent simplicity, “All ‘right, fire ahead—TI feel like it.” “The time element in this thing in- terests me considerably,” explained Dart. “I want to narrow it down all I can. How long after the first gong sounded were you in this room?” “Oh, about two minutes maybe. It- rried half was like this. I was wo crazy about Ray and I wanted to get hold of her to tell her how sick I was about the way that I'd lit into her, but she was doing her best to k out of my way-—-you were, weren't you, Ray?” “I ce was,” said the little “I certainly was.” A Trail of Perfume. “So the only don’t know what you call it.

I couldn't be sure that it was Ray, But I could tell that it was a girl, because her arm was bare. I trailed her down the north corridor for a bit; but I lost her somewhere on the second floor, 80 I thought I’d have a shot at the first floor. I went crashing down and struck out for this room. It was quieter than the tomb and the only thing that I could smell was the wind —some one must have left a window open or maybe it just came down the chimney—anyway, there weren't any more waliflowers around than you'd find in Iceland, and all of a sudden I got a rotten panicky feeling that I wanted to get out of this place. Vd almost got over to that door into the service quarters when I turned square around and started clawing my way back along the wall to get into the hall and up to the second floor again—I had a hunch that she was up there—Ray, I mean. I was going pretty until I crashed into this darn tub right at the corner.” “Wait a bit, will you, Joel? Did you hear anything at any time that you were in this room—anything that seems at all suspicious, I mean, now that you look on it?” “Not a doggone thing. The only sound that I heard the whole endur- ing time was me lighting into that avalanche and telling it what I thought of it—good arid soft and emphatic. As soon as I got my breath back, I lit out again for the second floor—that’s how I got back to that rat’s nest of rooms down the corridor that I was telling you about.” “This all helps a lot, of course. Now just how close should you say that you to the sofa at any time during this performance—I mean either coming or going?” “Well, look, I’ll show you—that’s the sutest way.” He was on his feet,, all his eager interest at the service of his late adversary. “I came in, almost over to that door when I changed my mind and went into re- verse. I cut around this way, just short of that cabinet and came back along the wall, like this, past those windows and this other cabinet and right here was where I came a crop- per. I landed on the tub right \at this angle—if I hadn’t been the ass of the world, I’d have remembered that we’d shoved it off there. Well, you can see yourself what happened; can’t you? It caught me right above the ankle and I was as good as——” he broke off, staring down at the tub as though hé were suddenly and in- — confronted with Medussa’s ead, bs “By God, Gavin, thefe it is!” “There what is?” Something in his voice brought the contemplative inquisitor abruptly to hand slowly from his pocket and stretched it out, apening the fingers with a curious reluctance. “We found something else, however, on a little landing halfway down the stairs from the Priest's Room. ... It’s an earring —a diamond earring. Any one recez- nize it?” Hanna Dart extended toward him one long white hand, the great eyes, frozen to something far beyond fear, fixed on the little, little glittering fountain sparkling in his palm. “I recognize it,” she said in a voice clear and strange as ice. “Will you give it to me, please? It is mine.” The Missing Earring. “Just a moment, Kit,” Gavin Dart laid a detaining hand on the out- stretched wrist, staring down at the pretty trinket as though it were something inexpressibly ugly. “You say that this is yours, Hanna? I thought that you told us that you had put your earri in the bedroom on your way ups i “That wasn’t true, Gavin; I never put them there. The other one’s here, tied in the end of my handkerchief.” She rose, unknotting the crumpled scrap of lace and lawn, and handed him the little glittering heap with steady fingers. It was through Gavin's that somehting like a tremor moved as he retrieved the one from Kit’s hand and d the pair of them on the table beside him. “And what, exactly, was your object in lying about them?” he inquired evenly of the tall girl standing be- fore him, motionless as a statue of ivory and gold. “Gavin, you mustn’t try to frighten me or I'll say stu things. It’s because I was frightened when I saw that the earring was gone that I made up that foolish s about leaving it on the dressing table.” “I see. And when did you notice that the earring was gone, if we are now in your confidence?” “Just after the lights went on— Just after I saw—Doug. That mirror over there—it’s right on a line and I could see myself standing there— and one of the earrings was gone. I put up my hands quickly as though I were covering my face and got the other one off and twisted it up in the corner of my handkerchief. No one was looking at me. No one was looking at any one but—Doug.” Kit said quietly: “I was looking at you--in the mirror. It showed me exactly what it showed you, Hanna.” She said in her grave, lovely voice: “Did it, Kit? I didn’t know that. That makes me a little duller than usual, doesn’t it?’ Kit Turns Inquisitioner. “And will you tell me exactly why you decided to go through all this elaborate dece lutely lost my head.

Central Union Mission To Hear Judge Speak Ward | and trialists and tht antireligious for Its present inspiration, it seems, is big business. which is de- sirous of the change on the ground that it will promote “efficiency, ac- curacy and convenience.” Whether this is so or not, is one of those ques- tions that can not be answered to the satisfaction of everybody. It is like the five-day week, which Henry Ford is championing. regardless of that terrible Commandment, which says: “Six days shalt thou labor.” There is no getting away from that “shalt,” except by doing away with the Com- mandment itself. But what is a Commandment from on high between industrialists? Held to Date Only to 360 A. D. A weekly newspaper with a very large circulation recently had an in- | teresting statement relative to the Jewish Sabbath in its “Question Box.” |This statement has so tremendously excited the Jews who have read it, as well as the Seventh Day Adventists and the Seventh Day Baptists, that it is reproduced herey together with Dr. Simon's answer to it, which he has asked the Church Page to use: “When did the Jews adopt Satur- day as their Sabbath? “The period from sunset Friday to sunset Saturday was adopted by the Jews as their Sabbath about 360 A. D. It is erroneous to suppose, as many do, that the ancient Jewish Sabbath always fell om what corresponds to our Saturday and that the weekly cycle has never been broken. In ancient times the first day of the Jewish year was also the first Sab- bath of the year ani the day was determined by the high priests or the Sanhedrin by observing the new moon. A Sabbath followed every seventh day thereafter until the end of the year. Tonsequently, the Sab- bath was not a regularly recurring seventh day in the sense that our Saturday or Sunday is, and the Sab- bath did not -all on the day corre- sponding to our Saturday mong often than it fell on other days of the week. At that time, of course, all the days began and ended at sunset. The Jews, after being scattered over the world, found the ancient Hebrew cal- endar difficult to follow, and about 360 A. D., under the leadership of Hillel II, they began to adopt Satur- day as their regular Sabbath.” Now Dr. Simon does not believe this is true, either historically, Scrip- turally or from well Known tradi- tion. Hear ye him: “The statements in this article as to the wandering character of the Saturday Sabbath have no basis in scripture or Jewish historical reckon- ing. Even in the days of Moses the Hebrews could count up to seven. Whatever instability there was in fix- ing the holy days by the recurrent phases of the moon did nob apply to the Saturday Sabbath. The confus- ion lies in the use in the Bible of the word ‘Sabbath’ to the holy days and the seventh day or rest. Every day of rest was called a Sabbath, but Saturday was ‘the’ Sabbath. This confusion is found in Leviticus, espe- cially with the reckoning of the seven weeks after the Passover ‘Sabbath.’ In other words,’ the Saturday Sab- bath was fixed as early as the day Judge John Gonnaugh will be the! of Moses. speaker tomorrow night at 7:45 /n the services at Central Union Mis- sion, 613 C street northwest.

Is it reason- able to believe that a people, devoted to the Sabbath as ordained by the Fourth Commandment, would have worshipped for fifteen centuries dur- ing its most fruitful creative religious history on a wandering, unsettled, undetermined Seventh Day of Rest?” Another celebrated rabbi, the Rev. Dr. M. Hyamson, who has been placed in the forefront of the battle to “safe- | guard the fixity of the Sabbath,” goes more fully into the details of this matter than our own Washing- ton rabbi does.

This obviously would enormously simplify the cal- endar—but there is one objection to | it. “A year of thirteen months of 28 | days each would amount to 364 days, ,and the solar year is one day longer, jand in leap years two days. The ad- | Vocates of calendar reform ailrily get | called Friday. | around this by declaring that extra day in ordimary years as Dies Non— a day that never existed—and in leap years there would be two of these nonexistent days.” Dr. Hyamson got down to brass tacks, so far as the Jewish people are concerned, with this example, which shows how the revision will work: “The year 1933, when this reform is proposed to be inaugurated, will be- gin on Sunday. The last Saturday of the thirteenth month of that year is the 364the day. The next day, Sun- day, is the 365th day. What is pro- posed is that the new year of 1934 shall begin on Monday, but that Mon- day shall be called Sunday. If Mon- day is to be called Sunday, then Tues- day would be called Monday, and Wednesday would be called Tuesday. and Thursday would be called Wed- nesday, and Friday would be called Thursday, and Saturday would be “The Jewish religion,” he declares, | “does not tolerate fictions. And the ignoring of a “ay of the week and calling. it a blank day is a fiction, which observant Jews are forbidden to recognize in regard to their Sab- bath—a divinely appointed institu- tion which has been kept by the Jewish people on the fixed seventh day of the week for the last 3,500 years. If this new calendar with a blank day were introduced, it would be necessary before 1934 arrived, to publish announcements that the 52 Sabbaths of the year would have to be observed on Friday, according to the new calendar. The year 1934 will have another blank day, so the Jewish | Sabbath, in 1935, would have to be to substitute for this system a new | | Bible Institute at moved back to the Thursdays in that year, and by ‘937 the Jewish Sab- bath would be falling on every Mon- day of that year.” £ Sees Ruined. Dr. Hyamson shows further that “the observant Jew would be ruined economically ry the constant change in his day of rest.” More than that— “if his material circumstances made it impossible or him to observe his Sabbath on the true divinely appoint- ed day, the loss of the Sabbath would jeopardize the continuance of the Jewish religion.” In every community in which I have ever lived—and I have lived in a number of the chief cities of the South—the Jewish citizens have been among the best citizens, the most liberal and progressive in their ideas, and the most generous with their means to every good cause. They give largely to Catholic and Protes- tant charities; they support cultural movements like music clubs, lecture associations, little theaters, art, every- thing that interests the human mind. And they keep their religion to themselves, never proselyting, never obtruding it, and never mixing it up with politics. Their history and traditions of theocratic government make them shrink from everything of that sort. It was probably with some- thing of this nature in his mind that’ Dr. Hyamson exclaimed—and he is fully indorsed »y Dr. Simon: “Speaking on behalf of the Jewry of America I wish to say that Juda- ism is not reactionary or obscurantist. It is not opposed to progress. The Jew will do all he can to promote ef- ficiency in business—the purpose sought by the advocates of calendar reform. But the interests of his re- ligion are dearer to him than ma- terial gain. The Sabbath is the soul of the Jewish religion, ‘which has pre- served the life and the morale of the Jewish people. The Jews are not op- Jews | posed to the reform of the calendar, provided the fiction of a blank day which destroys the continuity of the week is. not introduced, and provided that the Jewish Sabbath and its po- sition in the regular week as it is now will not be tampered or interfered with in any way.” Will Preach in Brightwood.

PASTOR ON HIS VACATION Bishop Warren A. Candler, of At- lanta, Ga., the venerable senior bishop of Southern Methodism, was to have preached at Mount Vernon Place Methodist Church Sunday, but a telegram from him yesterday stated that owing to the serious illness of his wife he could not come here. This is a severe disappointment. to these Southern Methodists, for they are very fond of and very, proud of their great episcopal leader. It is also a serious disappointment to this Church Page, for we had prepared a “powerful piece” on Bishop Candler, whom we have own since the roystering days of a childhood that goes a long way back into history. Mexican Church Started. Bishop. Candler has but recently returned from Mexico City, where he met with a- Methodist commission erected for the pu of setting up an autonomous Methodist Church in Mexico, This church will know no North, and no South, no Union and no Confederacy, no slavery and no abolitionist; but, like the autonom- ous Methodist Church in Japan, it will be a Methodist Church of Mexi- cans, for Mexicans and operated by Mexicans. There are only two such Method- isms in the world. Those noted above. In Mother England the Wesleyans are numerously divided. Whenever they get rich, the poor folks leave the church and set up one of their own. This is in line with the proverbial prayer of Father John Wesley: “Lord let not my people become respect- able,” In the United States there are as many varieties of Methodism as a certain Methodist. pickle. manufac- turer has brands of his output. And for that matter, the Lutherans and the Presbyterians and the Baptists and some of the other Evangelical churches had their divisions. Let no proud and haughty man point his scornful finger at the Methodists for splitting up. They are an energetic body. Pastor Is Absent. Dr. W. A. Lambeth, the popular pastor of Mount Vernon Place Church, is not here to fill his own pulpit. He is still summering in the Pied- mont of North Carolina, and Sunday preaches at Main Street Methodist Church in Thomasville. You, may not have heard of Thomasville, ‘but probably you will some day. It is an industrial’ town, a large furniture manufacturing city, at which Grand Rapids turns up its cabinet-nose, though it should not. The Rev. H. R. Deal, the junior pastor of Mount Vernon, will fill the pulpit morning and evening.—D. R. B. Catholic Organization Hits Rum Propaganda The Catholic Total Abstinence Union of America, in its fifty-ninth session at Pittsfield, Mass., this week, adopted the following resolution: “This union condemns the propa- ganda which not only encourages lawlessness among youth, but instills in them a conviction that alcohol drinking is a comparatively harmless form of amusement and good-fellow- ship. r “It laments the bad example set by the drinking habits of many parents and condemns the lack of moral cour- age shown ‘by hosts and hostesses in many Catholic homes on the occa- sion of weddings or other social fes- tivities, in offering intoxicating bev- erages to guests.” ’ By the REV.

The time is ripe for the reconsideration of Christian character. critical age will ask, “What do ye more than others?” In the busy rush of our prosperous years business counted for more and Christian character for less than par. Now that large groups are finding time for thought and reflection, there is an insistent inquiry as to what is really worth while and a new inquiry into the claims of Christianity Christianity must be more’ than a mere creed if it is to be valid. True, there must be a creed. “I believe” must precede all that logically follows. But somewhow, by some sort of common consent, too many It is important that we believe whole- heartedly some things. Without some sort of belief, life would be empty indeed. Worth-while existence can not be built»up on negations, Doubt is negative. other paralyzes all action. Man lives by faith. But there must be a corresponding activity. “Raith without works is dead, being alone,” said a sage of long ago. The trouble with much of our modern religion is that it has not been in evidence as a method of life. What. the world needs, and needs very much, is a great deal of Christian living. “We want your Christ, but not your Christianity!” cried out the Mahatma Ghandi to the American missionaries. That there may bea valid Christian credential we must have the faith that makes us distinctively Christian, and this must be followed by that type of living in society, in business, in every human relation- ship, that all men may know that we have been with Christ and that The very essence of Christianity is exemplified in the Master when Emerson said, ““‘What you do thunders so loudly in my ears that I | “The need of the hour is men of power: Men who are right in God's sight, ; Men who are clothed with God's own might.” A The one motivates action.

Orthodox Greeks. Celebrate Today Feast of Transfiguration Will Be Observed in Southwest. One of the great holy days in the Greek Orthodox Church is the Feast of the Transfiguration, and at its annual celebration their -temple of worship is crowded with reverent members of the faith. On this Sun- day there comes a recurrence of this feast, and the little Greek Orthodox Church at Sixth and C street south- west, will be the scene of the cele- bration. Mr. and Mrs. Anthony Sa- mantzupolos are spo this service, which will be opened with a high mass. The rector of the church, the Rev. Thomas Daniels, will be by other Greek Church dignitaries, and the church will be beautifully deco- rated with palms and cut flowers. A painting showing the transfigura- tion of Christ, given to the church by Mr. and Mrs. Samantzupolos and Mrs. James Constantinople, will be exhibited for the first time.

Dr. Weston Bruner, at noth services. Dr./ Bruner was the second pastor of this church, and was succeeded 21 years ago by Dr. John E. Briggs, of Person County, N. C., who is still preaching the old-time religion to his faithful flock. In the ‘intervening years Dr. Bruner has been preaching the Gospel and spreading old fash- ioned Baptist doctrine over most of the Old South, his ministry being in Texas, North and South Carolina, Georgia and Virginia. Now he is back home, ahd many of the old-timers will be glad to see and hear him. Colored Schools Hold Exercises at Closing Closing exercises in colored graded schools were held yesterday at the Sumner, New Bell, Cleveland, John . Cook, Deanwood, Lovejoy, Mott and Phillips buildings, affording op- portunity for representatives from all grades to participate in programs of recitation and song. Attendance and promotion certificates were awarded so that classification of students may be properly readjusted at the opening of schools next month. The schools have been conducted this year under the general direction of A. K. Savoy, asistant superintend- ent, in the absence of First Assistant Superintendent G. C. Wilkinson, who is attending the University of Penn- sylvania, and Assistant Superintend- ent Eugene A. Clarke, who has been in charge of summer classes at: Mor- gan College, Baltimore.

John H. Walker. onal secretary- treasurer of the reorganized mine union, said today that Illinois mem- bers of the group which is opposed to the John L. Lewis branch of the United Mine Workers of America “will do nothing to embarrass the State Federation of Labor” at the conven- tion to be held here next month. Walker, who resigned the presi- dency of the State federation several months ago to aid the anti-Lewis miners, made his announcement fol- lowing publication of a letter from William Green, president of the American Federition of Labor, in- structing officers of the State federa- tion to bar members of the reorgan- ization group from the convention. Will Elect Delegates. Local unions in .IDllinois affiliated with the group which is waging a fight against Lewis for control of the miners’ union, however, will elect Celegates to the convention. Walker Said he indicated that if the creden- tials of these delegates are rejected no fight will be made to force recog- nition, “We would like to continue as a part of the great society of trade unions in Illinois and America,”’ Wal- ker said, “but there are powerful unions which have done much for the laboring people which are on the outside of the A. F. of L “While it would cause regret to many of the leaders of this movement to be denied membership in the State and American federation, the barring of the union from the federation could not seriously handicap its power for good to the mifiers of Illinois and the Nation. Trust Betrayed, Claim. Aug. nati 15 (A.P.)— “The miners of Illinois, who are now being called dualists by Willian: Green, are just as good union me! today as they were when they were paying Mr. Green’s salary,” Walker continued. “They have simply shaken off the control of men they could no longer trust. They are the men who built up the original United Mine Workers of America and now, refusing to be parties to their own betrayal, they have reorganized their union 80 that it once more stands for the ‘things that trade unionism should Stand for.” Instructions to bar the Howat-Ger- mer-Walker followers from the State eonvention were sent by Green to Victor Olander, secretary of the State | convention, in a letter which was made public yesterday. Storms Over Sea Halt Lundgren Hop) Start of Globe Flight May | Be Held Up Several Days, Is Word. BEHIND THE SCREENS With NELSON B. BELL f was stated some weeks ago in this column that the then im- pending negotiations between the motion picture theater owners vf Washington and the local musicians’ union would prove to be less of & local confab than ever before in the history of either, and that the New York home offices of the chain-thea- ter organizations now controlling the Capital's first-run theaters would say the final word looking to any ad- justment, or severance of relations, that might come out of the confer- ences precipitated by the expiration on August 31 of the contracts cur- rently in operation. That, as it turns out, was what might have been called socking the nail right on the old noggin. On word from New York, both the local musicians and stage hands were given two weeks’ notice yesterday— but not until an impasse in the nego- tiations with the musicians had been reached. The bone of contention, it seems, was the intensely provocative Article V of the present tontract, which stipulates the minimum number <f musicians each theater shall employ —whether it wants, or needs, that many or not. Conditions have alter- ed appreciably during the three-year period that has intervened since the present contract was executed and Article V, as a result, has become anathema to the theater managers. With that distasteful clause definite- ly eliminated, they were ready {0 talk wage scale. The musicians, on the other hand, expressed a willingness to discuss wage scale only with the proviso that Article V remain in force without change, but only with those managers who were actually to employ mu- sicians. Such was the status of the con- clave when the two weeks’ notice was given the’ musicians. Without or- chestras, stage shows could not be successfully: presented and thus the need of stage hands would be ae | matically removed. They, therefore, | for Newport, R. I., | defatigable hospitality of Room 808 also were given two weeks’ notice. Although both sides are avowedly in most desperate earnest, it is not inconceivable that all this may even- tually prove to have been but one more impulsive gesture in a protracted controversy that may yet be adjudi- cated, if not agreeably, at least ac- ceptably to both sides. This, I may hasten to add, is purely my own cop- jecture, based upon recollections of other similar disagreements, so tan- gled and so long drawn out that the new working arrangements finally ar- rived at had to be made retroactively effective to September 1 to preserve an unbroken working year. However, if both sides prove obdur- ate—which likewise is not an incon- |celvable contingency—and things re- main as they are as this is written | Friday night, Washington on August | 29 will join Baltimore, Brooklyn and other cities in controversy in present- ing exclusively audible screen enter- | talnment. sans pit and stage musi- | clans and backstage crews.

Y-CAMPOL — 8 hs “ap a CabsConquer Robins, 4-3, InTenth Taylor’s Double Ends ¥Box Duel Between : Root and Luque. | - )Bruins Take 2-Game - “Lead; Brooklyn Ties in Ninth. . By WILLIAM WEEKES. 4 HICAGO, Aug.’ 15 (A.P.).--Young Danny Taylor’s second double of the afternoon of old Adolfo Luque in the eae inning of 2 dramatic tle today hoisted Cubs to a 4-to-3 victory over Brook- lyn’s desperate Robins. . The blow, a solid smash to right, field for which Babe Herman made a brilliant but vain atte seored Woody English from second base and ed a en punch on the lective Brooklyn chin. .{t gave the National . La , etn three victories in the four-game series, and ‘was their fourteenth triumph out of nineteen gamés this season, along with mo games ah of the Flatbush clan in the standing. Contest Is Pitchers’ Battle. - ' The contest had been a thrilling pitching battle between Luque and Charlie Root, One which kept an overfiow throng of nearly 45.000 spec- tators in a constant uproar. After the first inning, and until the ninth when Brooklyn tied the score to send the game into extra in- nings, Root pitched almost perfect - baseball, and any little. slips by the Cub right-hander were more than offset by a defense rough which it would have been almost impossible to toss a handful of birdshot. Dou- ble plays jerked Root out of trouble Of his own making when he walked two men in the fourth and spoiled another Robin drive in the sixth. The prize catch of the game came in the Robins’ half of the tenth, and was producéd by Kiki Cuyler on blistering Babe Herman's tremen- dous smash to right center. Feached from near the righ — Tine to clear into Hack Wilson’s tory to gnafe the drive, which ed labeled for three bases. The Robins wasted no time in making their bid for victory. Johnny Frederick opened the first inning . with a single to left and Gilbert fol- lowed. one ght. Herman fanned and Bissonétte forced Gilbert at second, Frederick going, to third. Eddie Moore drop a double into the left-field overfiow crowd, scoring rick, while. Bissonette was held at third... Lopez cleaned up the Rob- ins’ scoring until the ninth by sing- ling off Englich’s glove to score Bis- sonette. The Cubs were smothered until Brie the fifth, when three’ doubles into| 7? the crowd squeezed out one run. Danny Taylor started the inning with his first double and raced home on |}: a hit of the same proportions by . Ground rules, however, held Farrell at third and Blair was thrown out. Root Checks Robins Until Ninth. The National League champions tied the score in the sixth on a dou- ble by Cuyler anda single by this same Danny Taylor. Root held Brooklyn until the ninth, when Ike Boone, batting for Rube Bressler. doubled to center and a single by another pinch batsman, Harvey Hendrick, who appeared for Glénn Wright. Taylor, Who Was sent out yesterday to play left field in place of Riggs Stephenson, failed to do much Thurs- . day, but had a carnival today. His first double was turned into a run, / and his single sent’ Cuyler in with » the tying \run. While his last smash sounded taps for the Robins’ hopes Of gaining’ an ever break in the series. Root Is Enigma For Herman, Babe Herman found Root nothing like the other Cubs pitchers who worked in the series. Root fanned him the first two times he came up and forced him to roll out to Blair on the two other occasions. Root gave the.Robins only eight hits in 10 in- mings and fanned four men. Luque’| f gave_up only one hit in the first four innings, but was socked for 11 more in the next five and two-thirds ses- sions.

Johnsons retain their two-game margin over the Yankees. Nats Entitled To Credit. While many of the home fans ap- pear to be quite. disappointed at the showing of the Nationals. this prob- ably is due to the fact their appetites at one time were whetted for a slice of world’s series melon.

HE Bureau of the Census scored its second victory within a week | in The Post’s “Spot the Ball” ’ contests yesterday when the contri- | bution of David G. Fox, of the 900) block Kennedy street northwest, an employe of the bureau, proved ex- actly correct. Mr. Fox, in his third attempt to win the four choice box seats to games at Griffith Stadium, spotted the ball figuratively on its stitches, as indicated in the upper of the two pictures above, with the arrow indi- cating the location of the little white sphere. Although the height of the ball in the picture was deceiving to many of the hundreds of Post readers who submitted selections, Mr. Fox al- lowed properly for its high trajec- tory. He was presented last night with four box seats to today’s opener of the Washington-Detroit series. To win, Mr. Fox was forced to spot the ball exactly, as the selections of three other contributors were the barest of a fraction of an inch re- moved from the correct spot. They were from F. E. Finnel, of 3730 Geor- gia avenue northwest; B. F. Crown, of 725 Thirteenth street northwest, and I. E. Rehlander, of 3621 Newark street northwest. The lower of the two pictures above carries as ite reward to the winner four box seats to Monday's Detroit- Washington game. The ball, of course, has been elim- inated from the picture by The Post’s artists and it is the task of the read- ers to locate it. If it is not spotted correctly, the nearest selection wins. The lower picture provides plenty of latitude for choices. The ball might logically be in many places. It looks like a steal] of second base by Sam Rice, or it may be a hit, or a walk, or a force play. What do you think? Merely clip the lower photograph. Mark an X where you believe the wal! to be, affix your mame and address and send it to The Post's “Spot the Ball” Editor so that it is received by him before 6 p. m. tomorrow when the contest will close. The winner will be announced in Sunday morn- ing’s Post. (“Spot the Ball’’ patent applied for by ” C. A. During.)

He SARAZEN’S 67 TOPS $10,000 OPEN PLAY Italian Breaks Par by Five Strokes in St. Paul Tourney. T. PAUL, Minn... Aug. 15 (A.P.).— Gene Sarazen, a great money player, with his eyes focused on another bag of gold, led a spectacular assault on par over the Keller County course today and snatched a one-shot margin in the big struggle for the —* St. Paul open golf champion- snip. The stocky New York Italian pro- fessional, whose big clubs carried away the largest cash prize in golf's history at Agua Caliente, Mexico, last. winter, whizzed around the championship course today with a brilliant 67—five lusty strokes under per,.which not only netted him his scant advantage, but gave him a new competitive record for the course. Farrell and Hackbarth Stroke Bach. One stroke behind him at the end of the quarter-way juncture of the 72-hole medal struggle were Johnny Parrell, of New York, like Sarazen, a former National open champion, and Otto Hackbarth, the veteran pro- ——— from Cincinnati, who made appearance in championshi play in three years. 4 Three other well-known shot- makers scored 69’s to land among the leaders. They were Johnny Goodman, the Omaha youth who upset Bobby Jones in the national amateur at Pebble Beach last year; Tony Manero, of White Plains, N. Y., and “Light- horse Harry” Cooper, of Chicago. Manero muffed a 5-foot putt for a 68 on the final green.

Tennis Chief Declines Opinion on Status. New Yerk, Aug. 15 (AP.)-—The question of whether acceptance by Mrs. Helen Wille Moody of a bequest made “in appreciation of” her tennis efforts would endanger her amateur standing probably will be referred to the amateur rule committee_of the United States Lawn Tennia Associa- tion, said Louis B. Dailey, president of the U. 8. L. T. A. “It's a poser,” remarked President Dailey, declining to express an opin- on. The question is understood to be without precedent in tennis, but one tennis official suggested as a possibile parallel the case of Bobby Jones, who was offered a house by appreciative citizens of Atlanta and declined to accept it. A leading member of the amateur rule committee, which is headed by Holcombe Ward, of New York, indi- cated, however, that to compel Mrs. Moody to decline the bequest on pein of professionalizing herself would be “going too far.” In the rules of the International Lawn Tennis Federation, of which the U. S. L. T. A. is @ member, the defi- nition of an amateur. contains the following: “Any lawn tennis player is an ama- teur who * * * does not receive, or has not received, directly or indirectly, pecuniary advantage by the playing. teaching, demonstrating or pursuit of the game.” California Net Chief Sees no Violation.

He was interested in inspiring interest in tennis among the children. Mrs. Moody's fine example and help to this end always gratified him. I am not surprised that he has left her some- thing in his will. It is characteristic of the man and couldn’t be, it seems to me, construed as anything except an acknowledgement of his apprecia- tion, a well-merited reward for un- selfish service and a friendly act of a personal nature.” Hubbell Blanks Reds; Terry Leads With Bat Cincinnati, Aug. 15 (A.P.).—With Bill Terry, league-leading batsman, again showing the way, the New York Giants won the of the series from the Reds today by a 5-to-0 score .

Racing Stars|| “To Meet in Travers Featare at Saratoga Looms as Two- Horse Race. Signs of Heavy Track Seen as Advantage Ato Gallant Fox. Special to The Washington Post. Saratoga Springs, Aug. 15.—A steady rain began at 9 o'clock to- night, which interfered with plans to keep the harrows working during the night and made it probable that the Travers will be run on a heavy course. Opinior is divided Whether this will jeopardize the ehances of either Whichone or Gal- lant Fox the more. Both are re- garded capable of running credit- ably on a fast or slow track. By GEORGE DALEY. ARATOGA RACE TRACK, Sara- toga Springs, N. Y., Aug. 15 (N. =. ¥.W.N.S.).—Five 3-year-old colts were. named this morning for the sixty-first running of the Travers Stakes, at one mile and a quarter, to- morrow afternoon, but it will be a tworhorse battle between the Belair Stud’s Gallant Fox, champion of his age this year, and U. P. Whitney’s Whichene, champion 2-year-old of 1929 and the Fox's greatest rival. The course of the Saratoga Associa- tion Was been the scene of many famous duels of the turf, but none of the‘few in more recent years has at- tracted more interest. Not even when Gallant Fox and Whichone met in the Belmont Stakes two months ago. During this month they talk and think of nothing but horges at Sara- toga Springs, and for a week the talk has been of nothing but the meeting of these colts. The beautiful course of the Sara- toga Association in all probabilities will entertain the largest crowd in its history. Preparations have been made with this end in view as indicated by following the lead of Pimlico and running the steeplechase as the first race on the card go as to turn the —" from the stand into the in- field. Gallant Fox Rules Favorite. Gallant Fox rules favorite here this evening with followers of the sport who are discussing the race on the street corners and in the lobbies of the hotels. He is quoted at 4 to 5, with Whichone 6 to 5, while you can write your own ticket on Sun Falcon, Caruso and Jim Dandy. It is more than likely that only three horses will go.to the post, for Caruso and Jim Dandy are also nominated for the Waterboy Handicap at one mile. which will precede the Travers on the One reason why Gallant Fox rules favorite, though Whichone may be the choice at post time, is that the track was still heavy from the rain of the day before, and though Billy Clare worked the racing strip there was little promise of fast going for thé big race. Gallant Fox comes up to the race tomorrow the champion of his age, with successive victories in the Wood Stakes, the Preakness, the Kentucky Derby, the Belmont Stakes, the Dwyer and the Classic to his credit. He has done everything that has been asked of him, and done it well, winning on gix different tracks under all sorts of conditions and handicaps. Since win- ning the Classic Stakes at Arlington Park Chicago, he has rested up from his arduous spring and early summer campeign and is fresh and good again, mht not a few of his well wishers like to have seen him go to e t with a race under his belt. ofkouts Have Been Fast. However, he has done everything asked of him in the way of work, for last Saturday he went a mile and a quarter in 2:07, and the same distance on, Monday in 2:043-5, topping off his efforts with five furlongs in 1:00 2-5 yesterday. Earl Sande will be in the saddle tomorrow. It was generally agreed that Which- one did not run his race in the Bel- mont Stakes two months ago, and his owner and trainer expected the son of Chicle and Flying Witch to reverse the placings on the Dwyer Stakes, at Aqueduct, but a quarter crack developed on the eve of that race. Now Whichone comes back to the races better than ever. In the last ten days he just gal- loped to victory in three Stakes, the Saranac Handicap, at 1 mile; the Whitney Stakes, at 1% miles, and the Miller Stakes, at 13-16 miles. He wound up his training with a half mile in :49 this mornng. Prom all outward apparances, Whchone’s feet have healed beyond expectations, but they still receive every possible care and attention. More than that, he will run in bar plates, which, if the track remains heavy or is cuppy,. will place him at .somewhat of a disadvantage. How- ever, this is the luck of racing, and horses can not have tracks made to order for them. Sonny Workman, first-string jockey of Mr. Whitney's stable, in all prob- ability will. have the mount on Whichone, although there was some talk this afternoon of Pony McAtee being in the saddle. It had been the intention to ride McAtee in the ad gd had Whichone gone to the post, and Tom Healey, trainer of Whichone,and Louis Beard, the rac- ing manager, will decide definitely tomorrow afternoon.

The othéfrs are CARUSO, JIM DANDY and SUN FALCON. GALLANT FOX will rule the choice on his record, but WHICHONE will by no means be vithout followers. Many horsemen rate GALLANT FOX the greatest since Man o’ War. He is the more consistent. His old pilot, Sande, will ride him. Workman will ride the Whitney hope. The beautifully bred WHICHONE, while soundly beaten by GALLANT FOX in the Belmont, is a better horse now than he was then. He has train- ed in sensational style, has ran the same way, and “he stable connections have much more confidence in him than in the Belmont Stakes. Off his 2-year-old races, the son of Chicle—Flying Witch, will be hardest kind of a horse to ‘down tomorrow afternoon. His victory Tuesday in the Miller Stakes was a most res- sive effort. The manner in which he trimmed his field, coupled with a swiftly run race, indicates he is in the peak of his form. GALLANT FOX, by right of his ex- traordin record and his winning race over WHICHONE, is picked to win. The Belair star is a real distance runner and probably the best 3-year- old seen in the last ten years. Theve will be no excuses on the score of condition. His final workout was im- pressive, 5 furlongs in 1:00 2-5, and a mile and a quarter in 2:05 2-5, going very easily all the way. He will a hard horse to whip. WHICHONE has been given a long careful prep and now appears in the height of his form. Never better, the Whitney ace promises to go in better shape than before this year. Work- man is riding in great form. WHICH-~- ONE’S Miller victory speaks for his fitness. WHICHONE was reported to have Been troubled with a quarter crack early in the season.

After the ride up the bay among the tooting harbor craft he will be taken up Broadway under police escort. Though the veteran -yachtsman comes as a foreign invader intent on carrying away one of America’s proud- est trophies, he comes also as an old friend and frequent visitor, and he will be received as an honored guest.

Grid Squad to Train At Y Camp Near Annapolis versity Football Team will use as its training site Camp Letts, summer camp of the V. M. C. A., 8 miles outside of Annapolis on the Rhode River, was learned from reli- able sources last night. The camp has been the Y’s summer camp for boys for the last few years and accommodations fdr 280 youths. It is located directly on the triver, has ample ground for several gridirons and offers excellent. faoili- ties for training quarters. Although no wert was forthcoming as to the exact manner in which the camp was chosen by Colonial offi- cials, the reports of two George Wash- ington football players who acted as councilors there during the past sea- Son are thought to have made a fa- vorable impression with those who , ras the George Washington Uni- were looking .for a place for the Colonials to train. At present it is thought that about 50 players will be taken to camp by the Colonials’ coaching staff, which will start work at Camp Letts on September 8. The squad will train there for two weeks before returning to the city for the opening of school on September 24. The establishment of a training camp for George Washington's 1980 eleven, announced exclusively in The Post a month ago, marks the first time that the Buff and Blue Eleven has ever gone out of the city to train. The necessity of a camp was felt, how- ever, when it was realized that” the 1930 G. W. team would be faced with prominent opponents, including such schools as Navy, South Dakota, Rut- gers and Tulsa.

Talley pitched sen- sationally thereafter. The Spengler Taem gathered some honor in a ‘consolation game, defeat- ing the Clayton Post, champion of Delaware, 5-3, Pohl scattered six hits while Hurley and Luebert starred at Dat. Spengler.

Only Joe Cronin has come up’to the mark in this re- spect, his 150 hits having propelled 94 mates across the plate. Heinie Manush runs second, having driven home 71, with the others trailing far behind. Although he led the league much of the time earlier in the season and always has been well up aniong the elite of the league’s batters, Rice, with his mark of .362, has driven home but 52 runs with Bluege, de- spite a present stick-mark of .292, credited with knocking 59 runs rare, |] the plate. Among the other regulars, | Judge’s figures in this respect are 60; and Myer’s and West's 47 each. By .comparison, Dave Harris, used’ mostly as a pinch hitter, has driven 45 mates past the check-in station despite the fact that he is credited with but 60 hits. It was this failure to hit with men on bases which cdused the last two trips through the West to be such disastrous ones and which prac- tically killed the Nats’ pennant chances. Team Improved In Home Stand. The Johnsons have done much bet- ter since returning home, the result being six victories in eight games and they are determined to carry on at close to this rate of speed during the remainder of this home stay, realizing that it ig necessary thdt they do so if they are to beat out the Yanks for the runner-up berth or to be in a position 1o take advantage of either the needed miracle or train- shows wherein the! s TODAY’S SUN AND TIDE TABLE A.M, ~12:17 ». 7.02 WEATHER CONDITIONS U. 8.

Report of Hauser Bid By Chisox Unfounded Baltimore. Md.. Aug. 15.—Accord- ing to George Weiss, business man- ager of the Baltimore Internationals, there is no basis for the report that the Chicago White Sox have made an offer of $75,000 for First Baseman Joe Hauser, former Philadelphia American player. “We not only have received no Offer of this amount for Hauser from the Chicago Americans, but have not received any offer from any big league club for him,” Weiss declared, adding, however, that several major league scouts have been here looking at the Player, who has poled out 54 homers this séason—only six behind Babe Ruth's all-time mark of 60. The Chicago Club also denies hav- ing made any proposition to the Orio- oles. “We haven't even mentioned the subject to Baltimore and no such deal has been contemplated—there is nothing to it,” Secretary Harry Grabiner, of the Chisox, today an- nounced in Chicago.

~ AS SHORTS COVER U.S. Steel Gains 55 Points While Average Rise in | 90 Stocks Is 4.3. | SOUTHERN RAILWAY UP New York, Aug. 15 ‘A.P.).—The stock market played the old game of running the shorts to cover today and played it hard. | In a helter-skelter rush to protect | profits, the bears bid up their trading | favorites 3 to 12 points and more dur- | ing @ tumultuous last half hour that Was reminiscent of other days. Sales | in the final 50 minutes were nearly | 850,000 shares, or about 250,000 more than for the two forenoon hours. The professional character of the “movement was apparent. With the. exception of the break in the drought, *hews was scarce, and the market ’ plodded wearily along until about 2-30 o'clock without paying much at- tention to the weather. Bullish feel- éts in the tobacco stocks spread to the volatile chemicals and soon trad- ing became a scramble to buy the limited floating supplies of many important shares. The large bear interest had been well advertised. Since early in the week Wall street had heard that spec- | ulators for the decline, both profes- | sional and amateur. were short as much as 5,000,000 shares, and by yes- | terday it was reported that some of the bull operators were planning 4— coup. When the turning point came there was not enough stock to £0 around and prices mounted accord- ingly. Grains Show Better Tone. | ' Grains showed a better tone. Wheat | closed a cent and a half higher, al- | though under the best, on a bullish | Canadian crop estimate and reports _ of Russian buying in the dominion market. Bullish private crop esti-) mates, unfavorable Illinois advices and a better cash market helped corn, which improved 2% to 3%. Cotton | sold off sharply into new lows for the Season, but covering stopped the break and the market closed at net josses of only 2 to 13 points. Stocks were irregular im the earlier hours. There was further selling of | the coppers and miscellancous shares, | including Republic Steel, Shel] Union | Oil. Columbia Graphophone, Interna- tional Nickel] and Caterpillar Tractor, all of which made new 1930 mini- mums on small declines. Warner Bros. Pictures sagged 3 points on the new financing. while a few rails and some of the other amusements were heavy. The general dullness of the market | discouraged very strenuous short) selling. however, and when the tone) began to improve around midday there was moderate covering which) gradually increased in volume until | the big squeeze of the final dealings | Several] strong stocks closed 2 or 3. points under the top on quick profit- | taking. but in general the last sales’ were at the day's best figures Monday's Loss Recovered. The average gain made by 90 stocks | was 43 points. slightly larger than | Monday's loss, part of which had al- ready been recovered. The utilities, | harboring an extensive short inter- | est, rallied 5.2 and the industrials 47 | Covering in the rails was not so in- sistent. and the group's advance was just above a point. U. 8S. Steel made the spectacular climb of 7% points, although its net improvement was reduced to 5%. American Can up 9%. closed 7', higher. American Telephone soared | 5%, and held its rise. There were rallies of 6 to 8 net :n/| Allied Chemical, Air Reduction, | American Tobacco, Auburn Auto, Eastman Kodak, Vanadium and West- inghouse Electric. Sears Roebuck, .

A—I would like to know if the Sparks-Withington Co. is in a sound condition, also, what are the earnings? Answér—Noncancellable orders for ngs for the year ended June 30 are conservatively estimated at $3 per share. Sparks-Withington is in good shape, current assest as of December 31, last, totaling $5,583,647. This figure included $1,737,990 cash. Current liabilities amounted to $744,681. Should business continue at the present rate, the current $1 annual dividend would apear to be ultraconservative. At current levels, the stock yields the buyer about. 6 per cent. Diamond Match. H. K.—Kindly give me some facts regarding Diamond Match. Answer —A_ recapitalization plan will soon be put into effect by split- ting ‘the 170,000 shares on which a larger dividend is expected. Earnings last year equaled $15.81, as against $14.91 the previous year Earnings, including subsidiaries. were $4.18 per share for the first quarter. A strong financial position revealed in the balance sheet. Curfent assets aggre- gated $18,794,733. Of this amount there was 83,015,, capitalization consists of 170,000 shares, on which dividends of 88 have been paid since 1918. Income on investments the past two years have averaged 13 per cent. At present prices the return rte ——— Match is about 4 per n Eastern Utilities Investing Class. H. B.—I have been advised by a friend that Eastern Utilities Investing class “A” stock will soon be on a divi- dend basis. How is the stock re- garded? Answer—The writer can not predict dividend declarations, but merely gives facts. Earnings last year were equivalent to $2.28 a share on the outstanding class “A” stock, which is entitled, under the charter, to a prior- ity dividend of $1 a share before any- thing is passed along to stockholders of the “B” shares. The outlook appears favorable as the company holds approximately $80,000,000 of investments comprising public utility stocks and allied shares having a good and dividend record. Viewed from the ——— outlook, the stock ap to possess possibilities of entering the dividend- paying class. Niagara Hudson Power. K. N.—I am writing for some in- formation on Niagara Hudson Power. Answer—A close relationship ‘is understood to exist between this com- pany and interests in the United Cor- poration and Consolidated Gas, and it is intimated that Niagara Hudson and Consolidated Gas will be woven together in New York State power development plans. Net income of N Hudson for April amounted to $1,228,391. as against $1,194,707 for April, 1929, while earnings for the four months ended with April aggre- gated $6,018.036, as compared pon $5,977,825 for the corresponding 1929 Electric and gas output for and fouf months show a hag ree nswer— the few companies whose earnings in the first half year ran ahead of * for the same period last addition, business in Jul ago. for the six mon of June, July and August total $6,000,- || 000.

Based on the $3 dividend, the yield at current prices is about 5 per cent. United Corporation. J. L. ¥V.—How is United Corporation regarded for the long term? Answer—United is the largest pub- lic utility investment organization. Management is high-grade, compris- ing the Morgan-Drexel and Bonbright interests. Based on the closing mar- ket prices of its securities held July 10, the asset value of United was $35 ts sponsors equities United Corporation is not the basis of earnings, but rather of the market value of its assets. At its present price of around 35 the stock is selling on a par with its indi- cated break-up value. The c stock will pay an initial Sallie divi- dend -1 and will be placed on a 75-cent annual basis in 1931. About Severa) Stocks.’ Mrs. F.

- How to Keep Well By DK. W. HIDING SERIOUS DESEASE. ‘NE reason for the prevalence 4 * contagious disease is the fact that sO many people are poor neighbors and bad citizens. This is a | harsh, cruel statement. Therefore the facts on which it is based should be hurried forth. .The United States Public Health Service is trying to establish what they call a morbidity registration area’ similar to the registration areas for birth and deaths. They propose to | enter into this morbidity registration | area any State in which 75 per cent or more of the cases of six preventa- | ble diseases are reported to the local) health departments. Im @ sense, being in the registration area is a guarantee by the U. S.

In- | vestigators were sent into the State to ascertain the facts. They made house | to h®use calls on one-tenth of the | households, ascertained the facts in them, and from those data estimated conditions. | The diseases chosen for test were: Divhtheria, infantile paralysis, scarlet feyer, smallpox, typhoid fever and tuberculosis. Diseases such as measles, wheoping cough, chickenpox and mumps were not on the list because ft was assumed that parents are care- less about them and will be for some time. Chicago came out exceedingly well. I was a little low on tuberculosis but, taken as a whole, that city was well above the deadline. Cook County, Outside Chicago; Evanston and a few | other cities, made a poor showing. | The people of that county get little | protection by the Government from | bad neighbors. Only 26 of the 102 counties in the State were above the deadlines. About two-thirds of the diphtheria, typhoid | fever, smallpox and scarlet fever was | reported.

HEY have to be planned, a] course, because just haphazardly one can never put two and two together and make seven or eight. I guess I'd better tell you what ! am talking about! Of course, today’s illustration should give you an idea. but then how are you to know that a crepe de chime dress in a smart and tiny print, a woolen coat lined |in the same printed material. and an extra little jacket and overskirt can | be made to mean your entire fall | wardrobe? Scarcely a smart model in the | Haute Couture collections these days but has its this or that or the other thing ‘which gives the ensemble a |different air entirely when it is re- moved.

That's just exactly what next week's leaflet @ils you how to make! And every one of the ensembles is com- plete.in itself and as smart as ever it ean. be, no fooling. Today’‘s illus- tration will give you somewhat of an idea about it—and when you send your stamped, self-addressed envelope to the Dare Department of The Wash- ington Post for the illustrated leaflet telling you how to make the separate pieces that make so many ensembles, you will be in on the know like the rest of us. When you have quite decided that you are neither beautiful nor charm- ing—don’t eat worms—develop your sense of humor. Do it consciously, but not seriously, and don’t be unkind for the sake of wit. Biting satire is tolerated only in genius; even then it is never very clever. And by humor I don’t mean “girl- ish giggling,” either—that’s merely annoying. Cultivate a nice, .rich, Kindly amusement at life, youfself and your fellow men. And, besides being a great deal happier, you will have acquired both a sense of humor and certain charm. . This fall sees the return of em- broidery, only hinted at in the sum- mer modes, now definitely established for fall and winter modes. Little is needed, but it’s just this little extra touch that gives a garment its dis- tinction. Especially does it help the little tot’s togs. Two types of design are most popular—tiny, stylized flowers, and geometrical designs without any par- ticular form, but much color. . + * 7 > And tomorrow we have another weekly Dare fashion letter. It'll be in The Sunday Washington Post as usual. Au Revoir! (Copyright. 1930.) “WORK ON BRIDGE . This article is intended for the Auction and Contract Bridge begin- ner. Suppose that you held South's cards playing No Trumps, and that West led his fourth best Diamond. Of course you would play the Jack of Diamonds from dummy. hoping that the lead had been from King-Queen; but when East’s King covered, you would appreciate that you would take only one Diamond trick. Plan how you would play the rest of the hand before you read what follows: 7 ‘ The Correct Play. South should not win the first Dia- mond because it is likely that the llead has been from a five-card suit. in which case East holds only three Diamonds; and in this hand it is im- portant to exhaust East’s Diamonds so that he will be unable to continue the suit should he obtain the lead later. Before playing to the first trick, Declarer can count upon wirming one Spade, three’ Hearts and one Dia- mond; to make game he must win ' four Club tricks all told. North can not get in the lead three times as would be necessary to work the Club finesses (that hand would have to | get in twice to lead Clubs and once afterward to cash its long Clubs), consequently Declarer must play his Clubs by leading them from the South hand. That means that East may win a Club trick; consequently the necessity of holding up the Dia- mond Ace until the third trick 80 as to exhause East of Diamonds. After winning the third lead of Diamonds (trick 3), South should lead Clubs. It will be noted that East, winning with the King, would have no Diamond. Played in this way De-/ 1 clarer will Hearts, one If North tries (for Queen of make one Spade, three Diamond and four Clubs. had held two more en- example, the King and Spades) Declarer’s plan would have been to finesse the Clubs, and so the hold-up would not have been of any advantage as West would have obtained the lead if the finesse failed. Under these conditions De- clarer would try for a gra®%d slam and South would take the first trick; but with the cards as they are, the hold-up and the Club leads from South constitute the only plan that makes game possible.

EAR Miss McDonald: Do you believe that a girl can really be in love at 16 or 17 years. of age? I am 17 years old and entering my senior year in high school. Last year I met the boy, who is the only one in the world for me. He is 18 years old. We have agreed to wait six years. By that time he expects to be settled. I go out quite a bit with other boys and lately have started to com- pare him with them. Most of the comparisons find him the victor, but other boys who have had a better education man he has make me real- ize that I am above him, as I am enrolled in one of the foremost wom- en’s colleges. In spite of all this, I love him deeply and would be very unhappy without him. Please pardon the length of this letter, and I thank you in advance for the excellent advice I know you will give me. I am, anxiously await- ing your reply, ETTY.” Well, fortupately you are planning to wait six years, and in six years many things can happen, when one is young and seeing the world and all its glories. In six years there will be several other boys. Yes, strange as it seems. .And in six years you may have learned e difference between doving a man and loving the idea of having an escort to take By FRANCES M’DONALD: ‘Lomorrow you out and tell you how adorable you are. You know, Betty, you may some day marry a man who has just as little education as this boy, but if you réally love him, you will not feel “above” him. You will love all the things he has that thousands of years in school could not give some men. Intelligence is what counts, not college. We are grinding out il- literates from our colleges by the thousands every year. They can not spell, they can not write, they can not think. And they can not make a living. When you have time, sit down and ask yourself just what you believe makes a man a good husband. Is it the years he hasgphent in college? It is “looks?” at things count most? No man has all the things a girl wants. She must seek the things that matter most. Education |; matters a lot. But college is not necessarily education. If your man is intelligent, then whether or not * went to college means nothing at all. Do -some serious thinking in the next six years, Betty. Perhaps you will pron feeling “above” people.

Uncle Sam’s Home Hints SPICES. (Bureau of Chemistry.) Spices are used to some extent in making nearly all kinds of pickles, but chiefly for sweet mixed, and dill pickles. Various combinations are used, depending on the kind of pickles |- to be made and the flavors desired. Peppers (black and cayenne), cloves, cinnamon, celery seed, caraway, dill herb, mustard (yellow), allspice, cardamon, bay leaves, coriander, tur- meric and mace are the principal whole spices for this purpose. Ginger and horse-radish root are used some- times. All of these spices may be pur- chased in bulk and mixed as desired. Mixed whole spices, specially prepared | ™ for pickling purposes, sold in the stores, are, as a rule, satisfactory. Care should be taken to see that they are of proper strength. Oil spices may be desirable under some circumstances, but their effect is not so lasting as that = the whole spices, Today’s: Happenings Meeting—Ergatocrats Club, 8:30 p. m., Annapolis Hotel.

L. Kinnier to advise the officials of the city to that ef- | fect, Chairman Edward Duncan add- | e4 that the county is anxious to have | the work completed before winter and | wants it done by contract. | The board pointed out that with the widening of this bridge one of the most dangerous points along the road will have been removed. The county last year widened its part of the road from the bridge to a point where it joins the Government road. The City of Alexandria is now widening the road up to the bridge. Replying to a recent request made by the supervisors that provisions be made by the Federal Government for adequate approaches to the new Mount Vernon boulevard, County En- — Kinnier read a letter received R. W. Dunlap, acting secretary 6f the United States Department of Agriculture. The letter in part, is as follows: “The plans for the highway, pre- pared by this department and ap- proved by the commission for the celebration of the 200th anniversary of the birth of George Washington make provisions for access to the highway near the south shore of Four Mile Run, and at another point ap- proximately three-quarters of a mile farther north, near the north shore of Four Mile Run. The pavement is being widened and separated by in- tervening islands so that traffic en- tering or crossing the highway at this point would not have to cross opposing lines of traffic at the same time “Te department does not feel that it is obligated to make provisions for connection with the Memorial high- way beyond the limits of the prop- erty acquired for right of way cr for park purposes for the highway.” The board appointed Harry C. Saf- fell, Ashton C. Jones, Edgar W. Pum- phrey, William H. Payne and John R. McCormick as commissioners to review the property of S. N. Samaha used by the county for widening Wil- son boulevard, with the view of plac- ing a value upon it that the county may pay for it. It appears that at the time stirveys were being made for the widening of Wilson boulevard e section of the property of Samaha at Port Myer Heights was taken and used. He now is asking the county to pay him for it. It appearing that the sewer crossing a stream, leading from Virginia High- lands, is blocking drainage during storms, the board has _ instructed County Engineer C. L. Kinnier to write to Henry C. Morris requesting that he lower the sewer, which, it is gaid, will remove the condition at that point. Chairman Duncan announced that officials of the Virginia Public Service Co. will be asked to attend the meeting of the board to be held Sat- urday, August 30, for the purpose of taking up with the board the ques- tion of rates for street lights and to give reason why the county does not enjoy the same rates as Alexandria. The Jefferson District Volunteer Fire Department was granted permis- sion by the board to take one piece of fire apparatus to Long Branch, N. J., August 21, for the annual State | firemen’s convention. Plans for the parade which will be the feature today in connection w.th the annual convention and jubilee held..by the Arlington-Fairfax Volun- teer Firemen’s Association have been completed, according to an announce- ment last night by Chairman John R. | Mossburg. Headed by the Boys Band from Washington the parade will leave promptly at 1:30 o’clock this after- noon from the Jefferson District Fire- men’s Hall on Frazier avenue, Vir- ginia Highlands. The line of march follows: Along Frazier avenue to Mount Vernon ave- nue, Mount Vernon avenue to Colum- bid pike, along Columbia pike to Ar- lington, thence along Bingham road to Shelley road, to Clarendon avenue, to Clarendon, thence by way of Wil- son boulevard to Ballston, to Me- morial drive, to East Falls Church, turning right into the Lee highway, to Cherrydale, to Rucker avenue, through Lyon Village to Wilson bou- levard, to the carnival grounds. More than 30 companies from nearby Mary- land and Virginia will be in line. Prizes will be offered for the best equipped department, the department having the largest number of uni- formed men in line, the best deco- rated equipment and the best deco- rated private automobile in line. The judges will be Capt. Chapman, Capt. Moxley and Private Eskridge, members of the District of Columbia Fire Department. State Game Warden W. Harry John- | s0n has announced that on Septem- | ber 1 the squirrel season will open in the following counties, closing on September 30 and reopening Novem- ber 15, continuing until January 31, 1931, inclusive: Arlington, Fairfax, Fauquier, Loudoun, Prince William and Stafford Johnson states that as a result of the. continued drought, the depart- ment has been busy netting streams where the water is low for all fish and removing them to deep water. Commonwealth’s Attorney William C. Gloth states that despite that suits for the collection of delinquent real estate taxes have been filed in the county clerk’s office only a short time, many persons are availing themselves of the privilege of saving additional court costs by paying all their delin- vent taxes. He further says that he eels confident that many more will pay before it comes time to take the casés into court.

Aug. 15,—Capt.! Harry Wooding today completed his | thirty-eighth consecutive year “5 Mayor of Danville, a record believed | to be unexcelled by y other mayor in the United States Referred to as America’s oldest mayor in point of service, Capt. Wooding, now in his 89th year, is still hale, hearty and abreast of times.. The robustness of his physique is best revealed when it is said that his doctor’s bill for the past 45 years has not exceeded $10. He says he feels as young as twenty years ago and, in his opinion, owes his long life and good health to the main- tenance of an even temper, a refusal to allow official business disturb his mind, an ability to make friends with the younger generation and by accepting changing conditions as a normal development of the times. Capt. Wooding first made his race for mayor in 1892, when he defeated four Opponents by a majority larger than the combined total vote of his opponents. In subsequent elections a dozen times have other candidates aspired to defeat him, but he has al- ways triumphed. Looking backward, Capt. Wooding finds that there is not a public servant, save City Sergt. P. H. Boisseau, now in office who held sway when he took up the reins of government. Native Churches Held Mission Goal Former Worker in China Speaker at Virginia Bible Conference. Special to The Washington Post. Harrisonburg, Va., Aug. 15.—‘For- eign missionary activities of the Christian Church can not succeed un- less they are able to establish an indigenous native church in mission- ary lands and not a weak reproduc- tion of American or European Chris- tianity on foreign soil,” Dr. J. Stuart Holden, pastor of St. Paul’s Church, London, tonight told the Massanetta Springs Bible conference. Dr. Holden, who until recently was chairman of the China Inland Mis- sions, sponsored by Great Britain churches, has made a lifelong study of the foreign missions field. “The Christian Church in China,” said he, “must be Chinese; in India, it must be Indian, and in Africa, African. Christianity does not de- nationalize people. Rather does it give a new, strong and pure character to national consciousness.” Woman Held Suicide Now Feared Murdered Clarksburg, W. Va., Aug. 15.—At the request of neighbors, who they had “new facts in the * Sherif W. Grimm this afternoon started a new investigation into the death of Mrs. Henderson Lowther, 32, wife of a Davisson Run farmer, from two revolver shots in the heart Mon- day afternoon at her home. It would be inadvisable to make public these facts at this time, the sheriff said, but it is‘ now suspected that the woman was murdered. Her death was pronounced suicide by the coroner. Registered Mail Pouch Is Stolen Have Finger- prints of Thief Left on Letter He Dropped. |Special to The Washington Post. Cumberland, Md., Aug. 15.—Investi- gation of the bold robbery of a regis- tered mail pouch at the Baltimore & Ohio station about 3:30 o’clock this morning has brought no clew, al- though the authorities have the fin- gerprints of the robber, left on one of the three registered letters that he dropped while making his escape. The registered pouch, consigned to Fort Worth, Tex., came in on a west- bound train for transfer to another train and had been locked in the transfer office. While the clerk was out, the robber tore through a wire screen, broke the lock on the door and grabbed the pouch and five loose registered letters. In making his getaway, crawling through a fence in the rear of the station, he dropped three of the let- ters. The authorities are as yet -un- able to give the value of the matter stolen. The robbery took place while the clerk was absent ten minutes. Methodists Will Open Purcellville Parley Special to The Washington Post. Purcellville, Va. Aug. 15.—The Fourth Quarterly Conference of the Methodist’ Episcopal Church South will open at Bethany Church South at Purcellville tomorrow at 10:30 a. m Dr. E. V. Regester, of Alexandria. will preside. Trustees, superintend- ents of the Sunday school and chair- men of the other boards will make Augusta County Hay Crop Failure Farm Agent Reports on Drought Damage to Governor. Special to The Washington Post. Staunton, Va., Aug. 15.—Augusta County, which in 1927 led Virginia in the production of hay with 50,000 tons, this season will harvest not more thanm one-third of a crop, ac- cording to this county's reply to Gov. John Garland Pollard’s drought situa- tion questionnaire. Augusta is the second largest county in this State. Compiled largely by Joseph C. Coiner, Augusta's agricultural demon- stration agent, information forward- ed to the governor was made public here today. Coiner estimates the corn crop this year will not be more than 10 per cent of the normal yield. In 1927 Augusta raised 1,500,000 bush- els of corn. In the same year 75,000 bushels of oate were harvested. This year Coiner estimates the crop will be but 10 per cent of normal. Midseason gardens are practically a failure, Coiner reports, and there has been scarcely any pasture since the first of this month. The drought is general over this county, he asserts. There will not be sufficient local feed for stock requirements this winter. 100 Gallons of Liquor Taken Near Bedford Special to The Washington Post. Bedford, Va., Aug. 15—One hun- dred gallons of alleged rye whisky and 586 bottles of home brew were seized at the home of “Sport” Wal- dron, between Stewartsville and Vin- ton, this afternoon by Prohibition Of- ficer E. A. Newman, assisted by Paul Howell, Guy Newman and W. Whitten. One barrel containing 60 gallons was found buried in an outbuild- ing, and this was destroyed. In an- other place a barrel containing one- half-gallon glass jars filled with whisky was dug up. On last Saturday 562 bottles of home brew were destroyed and about three weeks before that date 1,820 bottles of the same were destroyed. Waldron was seen to leave the place this afternoon, according to the officers, and a warrant has been issued for his arrest. Confederate Veteran Dies in West Virginia Special to The Washington Post. Martinsburg, W. Va., Aug. 15.—An- thony J. Shanholtzer, one of the old- est residents of Hampshire County and a Confederate veteran, died at his home at Frenchburg after a brief lliness due to his advanced age of 86 years. He was born in Hampshire and, with the exception of the time he spent in the Confederate service, lived there his entire life. Surviving are his widow, four sons and three daughters. Sleepy Creek Fire Is Out of Control Sleepy Creek Mountain’s Blaze Imperils Noted Game Haven. Special to The Washington Post. Martinsburg, W. Va., Aug. 15.— Despite efforts of about 50 fire fight- ers, the conflagration on Sleepy Creek Mountain, near the Morgen-Berkeley County line, which has been raging for more than a week, has gotten ve- yond control and is now 6 miles long and nearly 4 miles wide, according to a statement today by Fire Ranger Frank Files, of this county. Ranger Files stated that the fire is the worst in the Eastern Panhandle in perhaps half a century and that efforts are being made to keep it from spreading’ into the famous Meadow Branch, which is a haven for much game, including deer. More fighters are being recruited from Berkeley and Morgan Counties. Back fires have been started in an effort to head off the much-feared disaster. If these back fires fail, according to Ranger Files, only heavy rains can prevent miles and miles of mountain forest from being wiped out. Two Counties Remove Restrictions on Water The Washington Suburban’ Sani- tary Commission announced yester- day that all restrictions against the use of water in Prince Goerges and Montgomery Counties had been re- moved. Since August 8, there has been a prohibition against the use of hoses for sprinkling lawns or gardens, and the withdrawal of this ban now per- mits resfdents of the two counties to resume proper care for their grass. shrubbery and flowers. Thieves Fail to Break Safe. An unsuccessful attempt was made ‘early yesterday to force a safe in the store of Charles Oshinsky, 924 H street northeast. The place was en- terd by forcing a door. The cash register was broken open. Two auto- mobile tires were also stolen. The amount of the loot was $30. ‘ ALEXANDRIA -RESCUE SQUAD WILL PARADE Potomac Group to Be Only One of Kind in Virginia Firemen’s Fete. FORTY AND EIGHT MEETS THE WASHINGTON POST BUREAU. 907 Prince St.. Alexandria. Va. Phone Alexandria 523. The rescue squad of Potomac Truck & Engine Company, No. 1, of the Alexandria Fire Department, will give a Gemonsctration at the annual con- vention and tolrnament of the Vir- ginia State Firemen's Association to be held at Phoebus, August 26 to 29. The local men will be accompanied by a modern ambulance, the use of which will be donated by B. Wheat- ley, local undertaker, the vehicle be- ing properly lettered for the occasion. This year’s convention will mark the first time that a rescue squad has participated in the parade, which is a feature of the four-day meeting. No other volunteer or part-volunteer fire department in Virginia has such a rescue squad. and as the associa- tion is made up almost entirely of such nts, the appearance of the local organization with a modern ambulance is expected to create con- siderable interest, and to aid the |ocal department in winning one or nore prizes. In addition to the prizes offered for the department, the Ladies’ Auxiliary and the Citizens Band, which will accompany the firemen, will be eligi- ble to compete for four prizes, be- sides which several individual prizes will be offered. The Alexandria dele- gation will have approximately 100 uniformed members in line. They wil] leave here August 25 on the Nor- folk & Washington steamer. The prizes include one for the best appearing fire company in the parade with band, the best appearing com- pany without band, the best band in a concert, the fire company coming the longest distance, the best appear- ing ladiés’ auxiliary of a fire com- pany, the State hose race and custody of the association trumpet; a 100-yard dash. The Alexandria delegation will be taken from all four companies, ind will march in the parade as one unit. Fire Chief James M. Duncan, jr., will be ih command, and a banner time for all who attend has been promised by C. G. Mugler president of the as- sociation. The August meeting of the Forty and Eight was held last night at Hurshey’s, King and Royal streets, when the recently elected officers were installed by Herbert H. Porter, of Clarendon. The new officers are Frank H. Fannon, chef de gare; James D. Preston, jr., chef de train; Franklin. DiDier, correspondant lo- cale; Luther N. Dudley, cOmmissaire intendant; Joe Fagelson, garde de la porte; Holly Dove, lampaste, and Sid- ney Weil, commissaire voyageur. | Cheminots are Frank H. Fannon, James T. Preston, jr., Franklin Di- Dier, L. H. Dudley, Nelson Moffett, H of Warrenton; Ernest H. Hinken, of Falls Church, and John Haggerty, of Falls Church. The local voiture of the Forty and Eight draws ita membership from the American Legion posts at Alexandria, Clarendon, Culpeper, Leesburg, War- renton and Quantico. Last night Voyageur Militaire H. L. (Porky) Flynn was presented with a member- ship bar for having secured 41 new members for the Buck Keyes Post, of Quantico. The grand chef de gare of Wash- ington extended an invitation to the local voiture to attend an old-fash- ioned barbecue and promenade at the Raccar Camp, on the Potomac River. The police department, at the re- quest of the fire department, has is- sued a ban against exhaust whistiss on automobiles which have become numerous during last few months, The fire department claims that so nu- merous have become these signals that their own warning signals are being ignored. The wse of this type of equipment on an automobile is’ prohibited by State law and city ordinance. Richard Weedon, 21 years old, who gave his address to the police as the 500 block of Queen street, was ar- rested by Officers Jones and McDon-~- ald on a warrant charging theft of an automobile from Sam Studds, of Alexandria. The machine is alleged to have been stolen last Sunday while Studds was at the dike, in Pairfax County, and in police court yesterday Weadon was turned over to the Fair- fax Qounty authorities by Acting Justice John W. Brookfield. The ma- chine was recovered by the Fairfax authorities near New Alexandria. A city-wide/“Go to Church” cam- paign is being conducted in Alexan- dria by Mr. and Mrs. G. A. Quinn, of Baltimore, with headquarters at the Methodist Protestant Church. The object of the campaign is to-.increase church attendance, and stamps are being sold at the various business houses of the city,. to be attached to outgoing mail. According to reports made to the Rev. G. Morgan Compher, pastor of the Methodist Protestant Church, the plan has met with success wherever tried. Milkman Driving From City Killed Control of Big Truck Lost at Detour; Victim May Have Been Asleep. Special to The Washington Post. Warrenton, Va., Aug. 15.—Dulaney Lee, 29 years old, lost his life late last night while returning in a milk truck from Washington, D.C. He was driving through the rain and either the windshield became obscured or he dropped off to sleep.. The truck struck a culvert on a detour on the Lee highway. The impact. wrenched the wheel from Lee’s hands and made him lose control. The truck then crashed into a large tree and was demolished. Passersby found Lee, unconscious, and brought him to the Fauquier County Hospital, in Warrenton, where ‘Dr. George H. Davis found he had been dead since the time his truck hit the tree. . His left leg was virtu- ally severed and he had suffered se- vere blows on the head. Sheriff Woolf went to the scene ol! the accident, with Officer 8. S, Hall and Dr. Davis, the coroner thinking there mjght have been foul play. but, after viewing the accident and hold- ing an inquest, the police and coroner decided Lee came to his death due to an accident. He is survived by his mother, Mrs. Harry Lee, his wife and two smal] children, GLINIGS. SCHEDULED I FIGHT ON TYPHOID One Death and Six Other Cases in Month Stir Prince Georges.

Three injections of typhoid vaccine, he pointed out, usually give an immunity against the disease for two or three years. The death thus far was Marian Garner, 2-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Louis Garner, of Marlboro. Four of the other cases, all of which are serious, are members of a colored family living on the outskirts of Marl- boro, while the sixth and last case is another Negro, now convalescent, of the same neighborhood. Dr. Hooton scouted the theory that the disease might have been spread through polluted water in stagnant streams and pools caused by the drought and declared that if any- thing the drought should tend to minimize the prevalence of typhoid. He expressed a belief that flies might have been~the germ carriers. ; Pete Nakonieski, of Baltimore, who had been known to the police of Prince Georges County only as “John Doe” since his arrest August 9 and until his name finally was learned through an interpreter yesterday, was tentenced to three months in the House of Correctino by Judge J. Chew Sheriff in Police Court at Marlboro, Md., on a charge of illicit manufac- turing of liquor. . The man, a Russian, had been ar- rested in a raid on a 1,000-galion still, one of the largest manufacturing plants ever seized in the county, and all attempts to question him had been fruitless, as he was unable to speak any English. Through the interpreter he told the court that he had been out of work in Baltimore, and had applied to a man, whose name he said he did not know, for work. The man, he said, had breught his to Marlboro late on the night of August 7, and put him to work tending the huge still which police said had an unusually high- potential output of 120-proof rye whisky. Walter J. Quick, jr., of District Heights, Md., district -forester for the western shore of Maryland, is to be- come assistant forester in charge of fire control throughout the State, it. was announced yesterday.
