Judges Peter and Worthington, wit sat at the murder trial yes terday, said to be the quickest in the history of Rockville, are to day conferring on the sentence. Under the law the judges may give her from one day in jail to ten years in the penitentiary. Light Sentence Expected. It appears to be the impression •round the courthouse that the judges will make the King girl’s sentence sufficlentty lenient so that defense counsel will not feel justi fied in appealing. Miss King was somewhat diffi dent when the verdict was brought In last night at 11:55 o’clock, two hours and twenty minutes after the jury had adjourned. The young girl displayed no emotion through out the trial. Special State’s Attorney Boule, who prosecuted the case for the commonwealth today said he was not certain the judges would pass sentence today but expected that they would. Was Not Put On Stand. The young woman was spared the*' ordeal of being put on the witness stand for cross-examina tion. However, she had to listen to the reading of a confession she is said to have made following her arrest. She heard her cousin, her aunt, her acquaintances, testify against her. The defense made its principal effort to have ruled out of evidence the confessions offered by the prosecution; They were partially successful. The defense offered no witnesses. D. C.

WEHENETS SENATE RULE ATTACKS Calls on Constituents of Each Member to Demand Reforms and Speed Work By International Newa Service. NEW YORK, April 21.—As serting that the United States Senate is the only legislative body in the world that conducts its business under ineffective rules, Vice President Charles G. Dawes today brought to the people his fight to reform the Senate’s methods of parliamentary pro cedure and abolish the right to fili buster. Speaking at the annual luncheon of the Associated Press here, Dawes proposed a sort of unoffi cial national referendum on this issue: “Shall the Senate continue un -1 changed its existing rules, which admittedly make possible, at times, the exercise by a minority or even one Senator of power to block the purpose of a majority of the Senate to legislate?” Dawes appealed to the citizens of the .various States to Impress upon their individual Senators by corres pondence, by resolution, or peti- (Continued on Page 3, CVUnmn 2J '7 washkmumes N 0.13,220 m AGENT IS HELD HERE Thomas A* Nolan Arrested for Alleged Complicity in y Plot Themes A.

S. By International News Service. BOSTON, Mass., April 21. Like the cry of a stricken soul came through the air today this SOS call from the Japanese steamship, Raifuku Maru: “Maru in danger like dagger. Hurry, quick.” The big freight liner, carrying thirty officers and men from Bos ton to Hamburg, was approxi mately 600 miles east of New York. Three steamships and the Cana dian tug, Reindeer, flashed’ that they were rushing to the stricken ship. Sun Rays Halt Radio But whether they successfully made the dash of 163 miles before the Maru went down may not be known until sunset, for the rays of the sun cut off all radio communi cation with the sinking liner. A telegram from Halifax, N. S., bringing the last word, said the Maru was 175 miles east of Hali fax, her cargo had shifted and she was in great danger. A rescue ship was despatched from Canso, N. S. Messages from the Maru were in the broken English of the Japanese school boy type made famous by Wallace Irwin. The first BOS said: ’Ship 39 degrees low. Please quick assist (Continued, on Page Z.

PARIS, April 21.“ Blackguards,” “bums,” and other riotious decla rations and shouts of derision punc tuated the ministerial message of the new cabinet when Premier Paul Palnleve read it in the Chamber of Deputies today.

SOFIA, April 21.—Captain Yankoff, second of the pair of communist leaders regarded by the government as the arch-con spirators responsible for the loss of 160 lives in the Sveti Kral Cathedral bombing, was shot and killed by police today. His com panion, Minkoff, was killed re sisting arrest yesterday. Yankoff was besieged by police in a house where he had taken shelter with other communists. When officers attempted an en trance, the radical threw bombs at them. The police replied with a volley of revolver shots, killing him. Blamed for Tragedy It was officially declared today that Yankoff and Minkoff were re sponsible for placing the huge bomb in the belfry of the cathedral, sup plemented with lesser charges of explosives in other places around the old edifice. Two Communists, arrested after the fight in a cellar, which resulted in Minkoff’s death, proved to be emissaries of the Soviet, the govern ment said today. Minkoff himself returned from Moscow only a few weeks ago. The sacristan, who allowed the conspirators to plant the large bomb in the cathedral belfry, was arrested after two days of aimless wandering. He was in a demented state, the authorities said, when he surren dered and confessed that the plot ters had warned him to leave the building with them. Second Conspiracy Checked.

Proposals to Bo Voted UpoflKj by Congress at Session 9 Later in Week An enthusiastic response from the 5,000 delegates attending the D. A. R. congress greeted Mrs. Anthony Wayne Cook, president general, when shepredented plans, illustrate? by lantern slides, to day for the proposed new audi torium to be erected oh a site adjoining Memorial Continental Hall, at an approximate cost of $1325,000. j She pointed out that the pres i ent auditorium in the hall is in j adequate to take care of the dele gates and alternates who attend the annual meetings. She called the attention of the delegates to the fact that it was necessary to rent the Washington auditorium, which has a seating capacity qf 5,000, for the present congress, and that nearly every seat has been taken at each of the sessions. Plans to Raise Funds. Various plans for raising funds for the proposed structure were out lined by the building committee, of which Mrs. Grace Brosseau is chair man. On the $1,825,000 basis, the cost per capita for the 140,000 paid up members for the building would be about sl4. The present property is valued at 11,110,000 with buildings and land, she said, but stated it had a sen timental value to the society which would preclude offering It as secur -1 ity for a loan to erect the new building, as there would.be the pos sibility of losing the present struc ture in case payments should nu defaulted on the new auditorium. A plan was suggested to the society by bankers and financiers, i to sell bonds in denominations of >SO and SIOO upon which no interest would be paid until income from the building itself was assured. If interest were added, even at a rate as low as 5 per cent, it is said the expenses would be increased over $91,000 each year. Sale Up to Chapters. The disposition of the bonds, if the plan is accepted by the Con gress. would resolve itself into an organized state matter. In each state there would be a regularly ap pointed chairman, and in each chapter a lieutenant, who would head a committee to sell the bonds. Another plan suggested was that each member pledge herself to give sls, which would do away with the bond issue entirely. This .plan, it was stated, however, might prove unworkable. Some would give sls, some more, some less, and many none at all, and there would be no assurance of the building being actually started. The congress as a whole will vote on the matter the latter part of lhe week. Plans for the structure were drawn by John Russell Pope, New York architect, who donated his services. Seats for 6,000 Proposed The plans contemplate an audi torium with a seating capacity of 6,000. They call for a series of boxes, forty-eight in number, repre senting the States of the Union, Instead of galleries. The greater part of the floor in the auditorium would be on the level, only the rear seats being raised. By the dropping of large cur tains and the removal of chairs, the auditorium could be converted into a banquet hall. In the base ment would be perfectly equipped kitchens and pantries.

The present immigration policy appears to be satisfactory, the ►President declared, although it is still in the experimental stage. “Restriction of immigration is 'nothing less than a revolutionary change from the older days whan wo boasted that this country of fered refuge and opportunity, lib erty and, security, to all who de sired them.” he said. “The policy of restriction seemed necessary, in view of the certainty that unprecedented numbers would flow to us from Europe following tho war: mors than we Would be sure Os assimilating, more than tffe European countries could well spars. Rad there beeen no limita tions, the number of newcomers among us In the last four years would probably have been several million greater. “If wO had been called upon to receive and place such a number, Jt may well be doubted whether they would have found their condi tion here much better than it was in Europe. Certainly our problem of helping adjust them to the new conditions and the hard competition of such a situation, would have been far more difficult. “It is manifestly impossible to know how many immigrant* would have com* in the last four' years if no restrictions bad been imposed.

In spite of the chilly weather, today's gathering brought out one of the most colorful crowds which ever gathered here. The thousands of women with their gayly-colored Easter clother pre sented a medley of hues and shades to accentuate the un broken white worn by the 170 pages. Some of the girls felt a little self-conscious as they wended their way- through th* chilly streets to the auditorium in their plain white costumes.

Congressman DongwOrth pointed out that the D. A. R. could render great national service by discourag ing indiscriminate attacks on gov ernmental institutions. The form of American government, he stated, is the best for America, and its tripartite nature creates a balance that makes for stability. He de plored attacks on Congress, the executive and the Judiciary. “As a member of Congress,” he said in conclusion, “I admit we ar* far from perfect, but from an ex perience of more th An twenty year* it is as good now as it ever was. and is not excelled by any other legislative body of any other coun try.

She and her sister Miss Laura, page to the Chaplin General wore among the most conspicious, spending most of their time on the platform. The morning session was kept almost in time with its schedule, arranged week* in advance. An attempt is being made by Mr*.

The session was nearly an hour late getting started and the presi dent general announced that thereafter all sessions would start on time if she and th* bugler were the only on** present. In spite of the restriction placed on th*lr costumes, the pages managed to display a great deal of variety in the make-up of their attire. Most of the girls chose to wear severe straight lined sport suits. In making her program com mittee report, Mrs. Frank W.

U. S. BUSINESS GIVING FLOOD OF CREDIT TO FOREIGN BUYERS SDMEBIG LOANS LOST Over $1,270,000,000 Is Repaid in Cash, However, During Three Months By ROBERT S. THORNBURGH. American business has launched a tremendous campaign to put stricken Europe back on her fi nancial feet by extending a flood of credit to foreign customers, according to information obtained today from Government sources. This great credit flood, rivalling the palmiest war loan periods, has totaled hundreds of millions of dollars since the first of the year. On its ebb tide, however, there came back to the United States over >1,270,000,000 in cash pay ments on goods sold abroad during ths first three months of 1925. Some of Loan’s Lost. Credit terms are being liberalized to America* a customers around the world, current Indebtedness to ex porters of this country is estimated at from $300,000,000 to $400,000,000, while there is a vast sum of “past due” debts, some of which have been written off as uncollectable. Delay of foreign governments In funding their wartime debts to United States apparently has no effect on the extension of private loans or credit extensions. according to offi cials. Within the last few months American firms have cleared their books of “tens of millions of dollars worth of bad debts accumulated in 1910 and IS>2l. It is estimated that after the col lapse of these years, foreign cor porations owed from $1,000,000,000 to $3,000,000,000 to commercial firms In United States. Exact losses cannot bo estimated, officials declared. Transactions In Cash. About three-quarters of the ex port trade of this country is con ducted on a cash basis. United States pays cash for practically all of her imports. x Most of the European credit is of the short term variety. Longer and more liberal termd are granted to the new and developing nations of South America, officials said. Another evidence of America’s world financing was found in the fact that New York bankers have sent about $500,000,00(r to London to be put on the loan market. Money rates are higher in London. Liberalization of credit and heavy oxports have checked the move ment of gold abroad, officials said. Exports of $25,000,000 gold in March were half those of February'. Imports of $7,330,000 were- almost double the figure of the preceding month. Heavy floatation of foreign se curities and new credit extensions have been converted into purchas ing power, permitting gold to re main in United States. CIMTETS WILL FORM GROUP War Workers Who Served Without Uniform Plan New Organization Organization of the country's leading lawyers, physicians and ethers who served without uni forms during the world war will be discussed today at a conference to be held on the third floor of the Washington Auditorium between army officials and officers of the Service Veterans Society. Under the present plan this or ganization would be prepared for emergency work in the event of another war. Already forty ex governors, who were in office dur ing the war, have accepted posi tions on the advisory board, it was announced today by Arthur E. Hud son. vice president of the organiza tion. Major tie neral Crowder has de clared that he has long entertained the view that something should be done to recognize publicly the work of the workers who aided in the •elective draft service system. Those attending the conference today were Judge Frank Comerford, of Chicago; Colonel Raymond W. Briggs, of the general staff, U. S. A.; Colonel Henry C. Kramer, for mer executive officer of the se lective service system: Arthur E. Hudson, vice president of the Service Veterans: John P. Con naughton, of Kansas; Martin T. Wyant, of Arizona; Major John H. Mackey, of Florida, and others. Various committees will be ap pointed today to carry out the program and policies of the orgini aation during the coming year. TROUSERS To Match Your Odd Coats □SEMAN’S, 7th F DAWES RENEWS ATTACKS ON SENATE RULES (Continued from First Page.) tion, their attitude on his propo sition. The Senate is responsive to pub lic sentiment, he said, but Senators must know that in the States which they represent this sentiment exists. The Vice President, who within a few minutes after his inauguration on March 4 subjected the Senate to a tongue lashing unparalleled in the nation’s history, declared his appeal was not made in a spirit of hostility. Issue Non-Partisan. "The issue is non-partisan, non sectional. and patriotic,” he said. "An improvement in these rules to expedite the conduct of business Is as impersonal and non-partisan a question as was that of the adop tion of the budget system improv ing the conduct of routine govern mental business.” Dawes said he had already asked the Senate to relinquish its right to filibuster. "Although I know each Senator realizes that to change the present rule to provide better cloture, he must individually relinquish a po tential right, I have full confidence in the patriotism and integrity of Senators when they confront a ques tion of plain duty affecting the In terests of the nation,” he said. The text of Dawes’ speech fol lows: Text of His Address. As Vice President, elected, not by the Senate, or by a State, but bv the people of the United States to preside over the Senate, I concevie myself charged with the duty of calling attention to methods of Senate parliamentary procedure in their relation to the national interest. The fact that of practically all deliberate and. legislative assem blies of the world, the United States Senate, almost alone, chooses to conduct its business under rules which do not provide properly effective cloture, em phasizes this duty on my part. The issue presented in the movement for reform in the present rules of the Senate of the United States is non-partisan, non-sectional, and patriotic. An improvement in these rules to expedite the conduct of busi ness is as impersonal and non partisan a question as was that of the adoption of the budget system improving the conduct of routine Governmental business. Absence of Cloutre. As emphaaing thia non-partlsan '•hlp, on the day after I had called the attention of the Senate to the need for a change in the (as a Vice President who. happened to be a Republican), that able and distinguished Demo crat, Senator Underwood of Ala bama, long an earnest advocate of reform in business methods of the Senate, re-introduced a reso lution in the Senate providing for better cloture. The absence of cloture has been denounced on the floor of the Senate by Senator Kellog, now Secretary °f State under a Re publican administration. In the platforms of the Demo craitc party adopted 1916 and 1920 was a plank which reads: "We favor such alteration of the raise of procedure of the Senate of the United States as will permit the prompt trans action of the nation’s legislative business. It is evident from all this that the advocates of this reform rec ognize it as non-partisan. It cannot be accomplished ex cept it is accepted in the hearts and consciences of all citizens as non-partisan and patriotic—a re form demanded by the people in the Interest of all the people. It should not be discussed from any other standpoint than that of non-partisanship: The issue is this: Shall the Senate continue unchanged Jts ex isting rules, which ad/nlttedly make possible, at times, the ex ercise by a minority or even one Senator of power to block the purpose of a majority of the Sen ate to legislate? Os what material relevancy is the claim that this power of blocking legislation desired by the majority, acting under its consti tutional rights, is sometimes a check to-mistaken legislation, if that check Involves the use of ppwer the existence of which is not contemplated by the Consti tution and is inconsistent with the principles of representative gov ernment? Os what relevancy are the claims that because the power of unlimited debate in the early days of the Senate with its small membership was not abused, this power with its consequences should have existed Ahen or should exist now? Rule by Minority. Because it could modify the conduct of government business as intended by the Constitution, the existence of the power was as wrong in the past as both its existence and egerclse are wrong at the present time. Who can justly claim that the protection of the country against hasty legislation demands not only a concurrence in legislative ac tion of the two houses of Con gress, the veto power of the President of the United States and the power of revision by the Supreme Court of the United States but, in addition, a power during the end of a session of Congress on the part of a minority or even at times of one, of the ninety-six Senators to block and destroy legislation by consuming time necessary for decision by prolonging debate until the ses* slon ends —a power the existence of which the Constitution of the United States does not contem plate—a power which at times puts Into the hands of minorities and individuals the ability to modify or control legislation by barter? The reserved power of the States in the Constitution does not include the power of one of the States to elect a Senator who shall control a majority or even all of the other States. No argument is sound to the effect that, to protect a majority of the Senate and of the Amer- THE WASHINGTON TIMES ican people from themselves, it Is necessary to put them at the end of a session at the mercy of either a Senate minority or of any one United States Senator. It is in effect and in changed form the old argument upholding the principles of monarchical and despotic government,— the argu ment that minorities or »lndi viduals know better what is good for the people than the majority of the people themselves. All the lawful restraints the people have imposed on them serves should be and are found in the limitations of the Constitu tion and not In the rules of the Senate. Any restraint upon the people imposed by a Senate rule is a usurped governmental power not found In the Constitution. Perhaps there was a time when the discussion of incidental phases of this question might have cre ated oratorical fog banks and smoke screens around the real issue, hiding it from the mind and conscience of the American people, but for years the average citizen has had the operations of the United States Senate under his eye, and he understands what is involved. He knows there is at question the possession, in cer tain circumstances, of power by minorities and individual members of ths Senate which is greater, at tiipes, than the veto power exer cised by the President of the United States. He realizes that these extra constitutional powers which have been gradually built up and which, from time to time, he has seen exercised, are subversive of the principles of representative constitutional government. Doesn’t Curtail Regrets. This reform dose not mean that the right to be heard at length upon any important question shall be denied any Senator. The purpose is not to prevent Senators from fully debating a question but to make impossible the prolonging of debate to pre vent a majrolty from setting a question. The purpose is not to deprive a minority of the right to be heard, but to bestow upon the majority the full right to legislate. The purpose is not to interfere with the protection of all proper, rights of a senatorial minority, but to prevent the improper use of a minority right under the Senate rules from rendering the Senate itself impotent. It is important that these rules give every Senator a square deal, but it is imperative that they give the American people a square deal. Under the'Constitution, the two hoiises of Congress make their own rules. Since tho Senate acts under its constitutional right in making its rules, the Senate and tho Senate alone can rectify them. I am of course aware that each Senator realizes that to change the present rule to provide better cloture he must individually re linquish a potential right of ob struction which at times he can use ether wholly to thwart the will of the majority or compel an unwilling majority to accept a modification in legislation imposed by him. But knowing that this power has been built up by the slow crystallization of custom into rules for which no party or any individual Senator is responsible, and with full confidence in the patriotism and integrity of Sena tors when they confront a ques tion .of plain duty affecting the interest of the nation, I have ap pealed to them for their rectifica tion of rule 22 so as to protect the majority of the Senate in its constitutional right to legislate. Appeals to Citizens. And more than this, I now ap peal to the citizens of the dif ferent States to impress upon their individual Senators by cor respondence, by resolution, or pe tition their attitude on this proposition. If the people believe in this reform In government, their belief should be reflected in 1 the attitude of the Senators them selves in rectifying the rule. The United States Senate is respon sive to public sentiment, but Senators must know that in the States which they represent this sentiment exists. This appeal is not In a spirit of hostility. It is to form and pre sent an issue upon iX*ich a fair test of public opinion can be made. It is to the end that those who are the source of gov ernmental power may express themselves upon a remedy in a lawful way.

4 JEAN ELIOT’S NEWS AND GOSSIP OF HAPPENINGS IN SOCIETY “X PAINTERS” MAKE WHOLE TOWN TALK “AD Washington” Inter ested in Revue Under Auspices of Artists By JEAN ELIOT. ZZrriHE TALK OF THE TOWN’ 1 I 1 is inevitably the talk of the town these days, since large group of gifted—and pronii nent —young people are taking part in this glittering revue, to be pro duced at the Belasco Theater on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings, and since their elders are lining up to supply that 'float necessary adjunct to every success ful theatrical performance —the au dience. The entertainment is being given under the smartest sort of aus pices, with the Spanish Ambassa dor and Madame Riano heading a long list of patrons and patronesses from the diplomatic corps which includes the French Ambassador and Madame Daeschner, the Ger man Ambassador and Baroness von Maltzan, the minister of Portugal, Viscount d’Alte—one rarely sees his name on a patroness list —the Minister of Switzerland and Madame Peter, the Minister of Ru mania and Princess Bibesco, the Minister of the Netherlands and Madame de Graeff and so on down the line. Mrs. William Howard Taft is also a patroness, with Mrs. Davis, wife of the Secretary of Labor, and many other men who are leaders in official life. Most of the girls and yotfng men who are clever at dancing or singing or who can put over amusing “stunts” have been pressed into service m the cast; and, as they are being whipped into shape by Donald Macdonald, a past master in the apt of training amateurs, there is every promise of a performance in which the youth, freshness and charm of the amateur will have been combined with a professional smooth ness and finish. “The X Painters” Do Their Bit for The Artistic jPevfing—rnt of this Chy. But to my mind the most interest ing feature of this production is the fact that it is being put on under the auspices of "The X Painters, the proceeds to be used for bringing important exhibition? to the Capital. No, "X” does not imply an unknown quantity in this case, Tor each of the painters included in the group is nationally known, and has mode his work stand for what is best in the artistic development of Wash ington. The group recognizes no cult or doctrine but preaches creed of honest workmanship and the recog nition of what is good, be it old er new. And a wide variety of talent is represented in its mem bership, which includes Burtis Baker —a teacher at the Corcoran School of Art—Cameron Burnside, Eben F. Comins—you know his striking and lovely portraits, don’t you?-— Jerry Farnsworth, Felix Ma hony—rapidly being recognezed as a painter of landscapes and por traits by a public which knew him first as a cartoonist—Alexis Many, Richard S. Meryman, Arthur Mus grave—who came to Washington first as an attache of the British embassy and stayed on to pursue his career as an artist —Edgar Nye, Carl Rakeman and Eugene Weisz. Counting ’em over, it develons that the group must have been call ed "The Ten Painters” because there are eleven of them. So the fact that a new member is to be, or has already been taken in—l haven’t been able to discover his name—won’t necessitate a renaming of the organization. Mr. Mahony, by the way, now has an exhibition on at the Arts Club, which is attracting a good deal of attention. The newest group of girls to be pressed into service for "The Talk of the Town” is the committee to sell flowers and programs, of which Miss Charlotte Freeman Clark is the chairman. The other members of the pro gram committee are: Miss Agnes Shands, Miss Margaret Davis, Miss Audrey Carter, Miss Mary Eliza, beth Thompson. Miss Sophie Beale, Miss Mary Bradley, Miss Elizabeth Beale, Miss Muriel Gray, Miss Helen Thompson, Miss Mary Tay lor, Miss Margaret Mackall. Miss Mande Mason, Miss Eileen Berrall.

I wasn’t hurt any.” “Not how do you feel —how do you plead? Guilty or not guilty?” “Oh, guilty, I guess.” “Have you a lawyer?" “Lawyer! Is it as serious as that?” Witness: “I was running out of an alley into Fifteenth street northeast at eight or ten miles an hour—” “How fast?” “Eight or ten, your honor." “Do you know the speed limit in and out of alleys?” “Yes—-six miles an hour if there’s anyone around —but there wasn’t anyone except the defend ant, and he was half a block away. Motor Puss-ln-the-Corner. As I reach the center of Fif teenth street he hit my front wheel, caromed to the east side of Fifteenth- street, knocked a parked car up onto the sidewalk, catter-comered to the west side and hit another car parked there. He knocked that one fifty feet to a lamppost, where It stopped, and he bounced across the road and hit a patrol wagon.” “What was he driving?” "A two-ton truck, your honor.” Witness: “I had just come in from a ride with my wife and baby daughter. I had some trou ble finding my latch key, and we’d just got the front door open when we heard a crash up the street. Street Scene in Washington. "I looked around in time to see the defendant headed for us from the other side of the road and my wife yelled. ‘He’s going to hit the baby!’ I Jumped Into the house and shut the door. “When ho struck- my car three men jumped from the truck, and two of them ran into the al ley. “The third one slipped when he jumped, and landed on his stomach. That knocked him out for a second or so and the rear wheel of th* truck appeared to run over him. Good Head For Driving. Judging from the tire marks, the wheel must have gone over his head, so he wasn’t hurt seri ously. He was sitting up and rubbing his stomach when the police arrived. The cop: “I tried his brakes, your honor, and the truck ran a block and a half from a flfteen mile start He said he’d been Jntending- to have them repaired for the last two weeks, but kept putting it off. He wanted to put his trial off too, but I told him we had a night court now, and It couldn't be done. Danger! Night Court Ahead! He didn’t see why he couldn’t put up S2O or so and let that end it. He’d always done that before, he said, and why couldn’t he do it thia time? I told him them good old days la gone.” Boob: “I was running north on Fifteenth street at a moderate speed when a Ford touring car shot out of an alley and hit. my front wheel. That made me lose control of my vehicle, and I guess I did graze one or two machines parked along there. I don’t drive much in Washington—-my work calls me out of town good deal, and I’m away sometimes five days at a time.” A Detour. “You’ll be away thirty days this time if you haven’t got S6O. The man running out of the alley was partly to blame, or you’d be away longer."

The last of four “Promenade Concerts" was given at the May- Cower last evening in the alb American artists series, presented under the auspices of the National Council of Women, Mrs. David Al len- Campbell. Mrs. Campbell has presented many soloists, some of professional measure, some still in the amateur class, out of which she desires to bring forth "young America." The result has been un even, worthy as. has been the motive. Last evening first honors went to Walter Mills, baritone, for his virile singing of “On the Road to Mandalay" (Klpling-Bpeaks), and his fine spirit and interpretation of a Negro Spiritual. He has dramatic style more than sweetness of voice, and a top register that wins re sponse. Grace Divine, mezzo-con tralto, showed a depth of vole* in her “Brindisi," of Donizetti, with ef fective accompaniments by Mildred Kolb Schulze. Caryl Bensel, soprano, and Ruby Gerrard, violinist, com pleted the program. 7

The play is wholly entertaining; for this, one can forgive It anything else it lacks. It is true that the au thor has left many things unex plained, but these loose ends are relatively unimportant. He, by transgressing the rules of stage composition in certain particu lars, has giVen us a play that is fully worth the price. Why cavil then, when, if he had been slavishly bound by rule, he might have written a less enter taining piece of work. Person ally, it doesn't matter so much. if small details are left unex plained as long as the play com pels undivided attention. Many artifices are used to heighten the situation in “The Gorilla,” many of these situa tions being spooky, indeed. A flashlight, falling across a darkened stage, reveal* the hid eous face of a beast; a revolver shot flames in the darkness; a woman screams; walls, open si lently and forbodlngly, and through it all stride those 'two amiable clowns, Detectives Mul llgan and Garrity. The humor of the piece is de lightful. It Is the broad, rib tickling kind that sends you back ht your seat with the tears roll ing down your coeeks. This re viewer hasn’t laughed so much in months.

Paula Tanquerary (Ethel Barrymore) Caught lavishing on Aubrey Daniell) one of the few smiles she deigns to bestow through the latter years of a miserable existence. In “The Second Mrs. Tanquerary,” now at the National Theater and signalizing the finest Barrymore effort in several years. SUNDAY OPENINGS ON THE STAGE By HAROLD PHILLIPS Not since “Declasse," four years ago, has a devoted audience gazed on a slenderer and prettier Ethel Barrymore—nor a more dynamic one—than greeted a National Theater patronage taken off its guard last night. To the good literary offices of Sir Arthur Wing Pinero, who worte “The Second Mrs. Tanqueray,” must stray a little credit for restoration of the intrinsic Barrymore fire; to Miss Barrymore, herself, acknowledgment for having somehow misplaced the im press of years unrelated to the late twenties; noticeable in her last appearance here in “The Royal Fandango.” Ethel Barrymore has always been, essentially, a woman’s star. Her sojourn in town this week should attract the lovelier sex out in droves, for despite the poignant challenge of Pinero’s portrait of a blemished woman lifted beyond her social sphere, that chal lenge must divide attention with the newer personal requisites of the star. And it does. About the only time an elder ly dramatic critic boasts of his age is when he confronts a re vival. Then he prattles ’of names and dates and compari sons with the avidity of a small boy inventorying the pro ceeds of his forays into the for bidden orchard. This is true not only of professional critics, but of the best part of our citizenry who are beginning to shed around the top of their respectable pates. There’s a kind fulfillment of some grati fication or other in identifying yourself as a charter member at the christening of something that is good enough to be trot ted out from time to time for secondary appraisals. And sq we have always the “I remember when—” clan and they seem to be constantly bal loting for everything that ante dated the nineties. God forgive them.
As for me, I am not quite yet the “six and forty,” which is the worst thing Tan querkry can wish anyone; a woman in that case. So those who care to trot out their Campbells and Nethersoles and Gladys Coopers for painstaking battering of the Barrymore ramparts may do so and they will be courteously received in the order in which they appear and asked to call again. To me the Barrymore Paula is complete and robustly and beautifully done. Whatever the mood of the moment—frivolous, catty or one of an outraged sensibility Miss Barrymore meets with irresistible honesty and flame. She seemed a little exasperatingly doleful in the first scene of the last act but this, I believe, is Paula as much as it is Ethci. A guilty woman ever on the alert for affronts must needs eventually break under the strain and regard the entire universe as pitted against her. And Paula is a lone and tragic figure cudgeling hey own conscience, the snobbish aloof ness of her neighbors and the bitter indifference of her step child. 1 get from the Barrymore pic ture the completest conception of the futility in living down a past.
The Aubrey Tanqueray of Henry Daniell has a quiet power Odd, This Picture I TUESDAY, APRIL 21,1925.. and earnestness about it that compliments Producer Arthur Hopkins’ choice for the part. Helen Robbins as the daughter of the first Mrs. Tanquerary gives depth and a maidenly loveliness as. the step-daughter who could but politel endure the second choice. Lionel Pape has moments in the character of. family counselor and if the character is slightly too effete and garrulous it isn’t his fault. The cast, wholyl, is well chosen and the staging competent.

At a recent medical convention in Chicago an eminent physician stated that because of the intimate connec tion of the nervous system with the glands, many sufferers from nervous disorders were receiving remarkable benefits from glandular treatment. He further stated that this glandular treatment could be taken by mouth like any other medicine, and that an operation is not necessary. Dr. Serge Voronoff, an interna tinoal authority on Organotheraphy, has said: "The functioning of our organs is no more than the activity of our glanda” GLANDULAR TREATMENT (GLANDOGEN) CAN NOW BE TAKEN IN CONVENIENT TABLET FORM.

Romping Around the Radio Dial L— By Listener-In The D. ,A. R. program last night gave listeners a chance to hear three or four of the best speakers in the country, one of the best so pranos now on the stage and one of the half dozen best military bands In the world. Os the whole bill, however, we en joyed most of all the songs by Miss Joan Ruth of the Metropolitan Opera Company. Miss Ruth’s performance got better and better as she sang. Her final number, “Dixie,” aroused so much enthusiasm that it was hard to hear her. Among the speakers, the best voices were those of the President and Solicitor General Beck. The two types are widely divergent, but both come over the air well. We had a pleasing recital by the WCAP manager. Will Pierson, be fore the D. A. R. program. After his preannounced recital Mr. Pier son had to fill in, with a couple of extra songs while waiting for the auditorium program. The time was not wasted. Paul Gascoigne made a careless little mistake in his announcing when he said WCAP was broadcast ing the “Thirty fourth congress of the American Red Cross.” It’s easy to make those mistakes, and evidently nobody was standing near Gascoigne to hear him say that be cause he made no correction.' William Hard gave us ont of his most "scholarly” addresses, devot ing himself to the intricate ques tion of foreign relations. It’s a tough proposition on which to give an interesting talk to an average audience which one faces over the air, but Mr. Hard did it well. Patrick Cardinal Hayes is going to address a combine radio audience including local listeners Sunday night in a message on the true meaning of charity. His Eminence will speak through WEEI, WJAR. WCTB, WCAE, VTWJ, WEAF and WCAP. There will be a similar hook-up Saturday night for the broadcast ing of a national tribute to Gen eral Pershing by the American Legion in the monstrous Hippo drome in New York city. The pro gram will be broadcast from 11:30 to 1 o’clock Saturday night, after the opera, "I Pagliacci,” has gone through the same hook-up. Arthur Bagley, conductor of the morning health exercises is being snowed under with an avalanche of mail. Many Government clerks tn Washington have written to thank him, one of them saying, “It’s a fine thing for us who don’t get much exercise.” j One woman has written to say that she takes the exercises over a crystal set in spite of the diffi culties. She says: “I am surprised to find that I can take the exer cises with my crystal set with which, as you know, I cannot use a loud speaker. The headset cord is long enough so ««iat I can set the radio on a chair and even take the lying down exercises. Also I act as a model, and my two girl friends that share my apartment follow my movements, and we all get the exercise.” We call that real ambition. Judge Hitt asked us yesterday to help educate the people not to speed. The best education we know is publication of the law which goes into effect on May 3, which requires that everyone without ex ception go to jail on the third of fense. With that in mind we are not ever going to go faster than twenty hereafter. Tonight!

ARE YOU KEEPING UP WITH THE TIMES? BAD STREET COMPLAINTS FLOOD OFFICIALS Employers to Meet Union Painter Leaders FAIR WAGE GROUP IS OUT Agree to Parley Plans Made by Colpoys and Earlier Turned Down John B. Colpoys, Department of Labor conciliator in the painters’ strike, today was able to smile for the first time since the strike began. He obtained a conference with the employing painters, and the union also was in a receptive mood. Mr. Colpoys met the employers at the office of Edward .Linskey, president of the master painters’ organization. He mide the same proposition which formerly had been unsuccessful: That represen tatives of both sides meet ana discuss their differences, an -id justment to be arrived at in the course of the parley, if possible. Unions Favor Parley. William J. Gallagher. the paint ers international organizer, will re turn to this city tomorrow. He has already stated that the union will acquiesce in a proposal to meet the employers. Arthur Chamberlain, business agent of the local union, also is in favor of such a gathering. Prior to the Colpoys conference today President Linskey stated that the master painters are ready to consider any reasonable proposition that may be laid before the "peace conference." The union takes the same altitude. The interpretation of wnai each site considers a "rea sonable” proposal will be debated and uecicied upon at the proposed meeting. There was a strong likelihood to day, said Mr. Linskey and other leading master painters, that the employers are ready to listen to the settlement program announced by Mr. Colpoys several days ago— namely, a long-term contract be tween the employers and the union. Pay Rate at Issue. The principal point of contention, as far as this feature goes, it was said, is the rate to be fixed in the contract. It may be 39, the old scale; |lO a day. the new union scale, which formed the basis of the strike, or possibly the com promise figure of 39.50. That is for the “peace conference” to settle. Mr. Colpoys probably will con clude arrangements for the con ference tomorrow, upon the return of Mr. Gallagher. The meeting will be outside the jurisdiction of the fair-wage committee of busi ness men and financiers, and will be strictly a labor conference. Mr. Linskey probably will be the only man present who at this time is serving on the fair wage group. The union today reported that the new wage scale was being made to union painters on jobs at Charles Schwartz and Son, jewelers, at 708 Seventh street northwest, and the! Mt. Vernon Savings Bank. At the Central Labor Union meet- I ting last night, no action was taken on the question of the attitude of local banks toward organized labor A movement was started, however, to urge local union workmen and their families to patronize stores and other business establishments which are “fair” to organized labor and to buy union-made goods.

M., and 4:00 and 8:00 P. M., io a “happy" one. In the first place it won’t bother the Congressman, because the District Commissioners Just gave him a tag to place on hie car allowing him parking privileges at any time, at any place, and for any length of time. And in the second place it won’t bother the boss or the rick man because they seldom gel downtown before 9:30 A. M. any way, and they're off playing golf before 4:00 ,P. M. That makes it very nice for everybody except the underdog who must be at his desk by 9:00 A. M. at the latest and who is unable to leave it before 4:30 P. M. Os course, he doesn't count. He can either sett his flivver and start riding on the street cars again or he can leave it so far away from hie office that he’s half way home when he reaches it. Yes, it's a splendid regulation. Through it, everybody is treated alike. It is fair and square to everybody. As square as an orange. Voteless Washington is t used to this sort of thing. GKORGB W. FORSBERG. PASSING THE BUCK.

PLEA District Highway Chief Denies Unnecessary Delay—Speed ing Repairs, They Declare Rutted and hole-broken streets, have become so unfit for service that the long-suffering motor riding public is daily pouring complaints into mails of District officials and officers of the vari ous motor car organizations in this city, it was learned today. Broken axles, loose bolts and shattered nerves are some of the charges hurled at the District highway department, as a result of the present condition of many Washington thoroughfares. What Officials Say. Officials of the highway depart ment declare they are doing every thing in their power to speed up re pairs and are spending money free ly in ari effort to patch. up the streets before the late spring rush of tourists commences. But, officials of motorist organ izations aver, principal streets that should have received attention long ago have not been touched by the street repair workers. Officials of the national as well as the local headquarters 'of the American Automobile Association have been deluged with letters of complaint many of them from out of-town visitors to the Capital. Tourists Complaining. It was pointed out by these offi cials that considering the fact motor campers alone will spend at least 1500,000 in the National Capital this season, not to mention the thou sands of tourists who are classified as “hotel stoppers,” their complaints are entitled to consideration. Isaac Gans, member of the ad visory council of the local American Automobile Association, and one of the leaders in the movement to im prove not only the streets, but the lighting system of this city, was. outspoken in his disapproval of the situation. “The streets are in a deplorable condition,” said Mr. Gans. “Some thing must be done quickly.

Next we hastened downstairs, two steps at a time, to view with exclamations of de light the Christmas tree, which was laden with scintillating deco rations and wired from top to bottom by the house electrician with colored bulbs. Papa gave each member of the household employes an amount of money in proportion to the length of time each had been our service. These sums were in gold pieces, each in an envelope bearing the name of the recipient. The envelopes were handed to me to distribute along with my own gifts to the servants. This task took up what was left of the morn ing. At half past twelve wo wore dressed for the Christmas lunch, which was one of the great events of the day. About forty relatives and guests were 4 seat ed at the long table in the cen ter of which was an enormous Jack Horner pie with a ribbon leading to each person's plate. At the end of the meal each person pulled the ribbon and out of the pie popped a present. Mama supervised the purchase of these presents, and with her never-failing sense of humor, gave something appropriate to all of us. Nuts and raisins and candy adorned the table. This was the one day in the year that we children were permitted to eat anything and as much as we- pleased. As the piece de resistance we always had a large plum pudding aflame with lighted brandy.

DURING thia between-seasons period when salad materials are still scarce and high-priced, one can discover many salad pos sibilities in tin cans of fruits and vegetables. Here one must use the same discrimination in select (ng the salad material that one would use in planning a. salad of fresh green materials. For the heavy substantial meal the salad i must be light and suited to a French dressing. Ths light meal may be helped out by a substan tial salad with a heavy mayon naise or boiled dressing- Canned lima beans with celery, a bit of onion or chives marinated i in French dressing with a dash of chili safcce, chilled and served on crisp lettuce makes a salad of the heavier type. Plain baked beans from the can with minced sour pickles or gherkins, a bit of celery, served with mayonnaise dressing, season with tomato cat sup Is another canned salad with meal possibilities. There are dozens of possibilities s os salads from canned pineapple. With cream cheese, with raisins, with nut meats, with oranges, dates, apples or even well-drained tomatoes, pineapple makes one of the best spring salads Two cups of diced pineapple with a cup of diced celery and a minced sweet red pepper served with French dressing make a fine spring salad. Canned i»ears, peaches, or apri cots are nearly if not quite as good In salads as the fresh fruit. 1 Well-drained, firm canned to matoes, sliced and served with slices of canned peaches and diced celery is a novelty in canned salads. Large canned plums may be served alone on lettuce with a French dressing. Sliced peaches with thin shreds of blanched al monde with a cream mayonnaise I dressing is another fine salad of a type suited to occasions of en tertaining.

She said faintly: "Ring.” She didn't hear when the but ler answered: "Miss Herbert is not in.” She didn’t hear or she wouldn’t understand, for she re peated: “Yes, Tell Miss Herbert It’s a case of life and death. I must see her! It’s news of tre mendous importance. She must hear It.” Presently Natalie was standing before her and the two women gazed at each other with stark, white faces. And Natalie's was more stricken than Nora Lee's. CHAPTER XLVI. Battling for a Life. Natalie’s voice, shocked and raw with pain, broke the tension: “Nora Lee!

"Scalded—hurry—hurry—” He bore her down the steps. His words throbbed wildly, like some deafening, incredible pain in her head. “Sonny? Tell me! Oh. for God’s sake, what, Nora Lee?” This queer, tense sobbing un nerved her. She wept and couldn't answer. He bowed his shoulders against the driving rain: lifted her to the taxi. He said to the driver: “Ten dollars for every minute you save getting us there!” “I I’d Been Home.” She felt his body shaking. He touched her icy hands, clinched them against her knees: "Speak, Nora Lee!” “Oh, yes! But he may die Sonny may die. I was away.

He must have slipped—lost his balance standing on the little bench near the tub. "Oh, God!” He hunched his head—covered it with his arms. She heard his teeth chattering: "Fell in head first, Nora Lee?” "No—not his face—” Then she told him of the boy’s one frantic scream —Ellen flying down the hall—raising him, and how they poured oil over him—the doctor coming and all the doctor had said She felt that she was beating him; that he sank under the merci less scourging until she could only THE WASHINGTON TIMES see his white, agonized face; his dumb, suffering eyes.

Then they were standing by the bed and the small face had a leaden heavy look: the half closed eyes were both dull and restless. Seeing the little fellow lying so, a sob broke from the father’s lips. He sank in the low chair at Sonny’s bed- And an odd, heart melting thing happened. The clid's eyes opened, glanced about the room, rested on Dane. A momentary flash of blue —a mumbled: "Dad dy!” The little boy smiled. It was like a sweet note of music entering the room, but almost immediately it was gone and a soft, frantic cry rasped across their nerves.

A TRUE STORY ABOUT A SAILOR GOAT TJOBBY had on his-boxing gloves u and was dancing about, doing some very snappy shadow-boxing as visions of Jack Dempsey flashed through his curly head. I must say that I didn’t pay much attention to the paper which I had. »I was too amused watching Bobby’s efforts at mastering the manly art of self defense. Finally he gave a big puff, low ered his head and lunged for ward, like a butting goat. Then he flopped down in a chair beside me to rest. "Tell me a story Foxy Grandpa,* said he. "I’ll tell you a story about an animal you reminded me of, Bobby,” I laughed, "and a true one. too.” "Once, many years ago, a friend of mine who is a naval officer, was down in Central American waters on a gunboat. "And you know how sailors like to have pets on board ship for mascots. Well, the sailors on this ship decided that they would like to have one, so they went ashore and guess what they found? A little brown goat. He was a pretty little fellow with a rich brown coat of fur, with black points on tall and legs and a black streak down his back. His hoofs and horns were shiny black, too. "Well, the sailors loved this little fellow. He was great com pany—very friendly and affec tionate. His particular pal was the bugler. He used to stand on the bugler’s shoulders and look around with an air of great im portance. "Every day the men polished up the little goat’s hoofs and horns until they shone like Jet, and on special occasion the sailors gilded them by painting them with gold paint. Then he did look fine, and how proudly he strutted around the deck. “Once a month, when the Ar ticles of War were read, which tell all of the rules of the navy— and it takes a long time, too there the goat stood like a four druggist sells a tiny bott'e of "Freezone” for a few cents, suf ficient to remove every hard corn, soft corn, or corn between the toes, and the foot calluses, without soreness or irritation. ■By Helen Rowland Breaking a man’s heart is not a cruelty, but a kindness; a man’s heart, like his teeth, has to be made to ACHE before he is con scious of its existence. A woman may love a man for his "brute strength” or even for his weaknesses, for his fascinating worldliness or for his plain, homely virtues—but she has to love him in SPITE of his Adam’s apple. A man Is- never Interested in a heart that is marked "To Let”; he prefers to make himself miser able by trying to squeeze into one that Is marked "No Vacan cies.” Marriage is the point at which a man stops waiting for a woman to make up her mind, and begins waiting for her to' make up HIS mind. Most men seem to think that a girl should be perfectly satisfied with a “part-time” love and a sort of co-operative interest In their evenings and affections these busy days. statue, as if he understood every word. “You can Imagine how the men loved this little fellow and how they played with him. They taught him to fight. Os course, a goat knows how to butt when he is born. But the sailors trained him up by holding up their hands and encouraging him to butt against them as hard as he could. “The goat got very skillful at his butting and practiced with every sailor who could play with him. “The ship came North and went to Boston. Xnd as it hap pened, there in the Navy Yard where the ship was tied up to the dock lived a big white billy goat, with a long gray beard. He was a sassy goat, and strutted around as if the Navy Yard had been established for his particu lar comfort. Ho thought he was monarch of all he surveyed— until one sad day. “On this day, the Tittle brown South American goat, who was only half the size of the big white goat, spied him. He took one look at the big fellow and then w-alked camly down the gangplank. Straight over to the big goat the little fellow went. He lowered him head,* kicked up his heels and what a whack he gave the big goat! “The big fellow was thunder struck, and before he could re cover himself, the little fellow went at him again. Bang! bang! he plunged in under the big goat’s whiskers. He got the best of the big white goat be fore he could get out another mahah. Then .without waiting even to look at the little fel|ow, the big goat ran off—licked and humbled. And all because the little fellow had been in train ing and knew how to sock. He just walloped him.” “I think I’ll practise some more,” sa'.d Bobby, jumping up and putting up his guard. WHEN DID IT HAPPEN?

WHAT’S THE USE OF IDEALS? “You Will Never Be Sorry for Adhering to the Highest Standards,” the Famous Writer Tells Girls Who Wonder If Men Appreciate Fine Qualities. By Beatrice Fairfax, Who Occupies a Unique Position in the Writing World M an An* thorfiy on Problems of Love. WWtTHAT’B the use of having Ing ideals? They don’t get you anywhere.” "Ideals are all right In books, but not in real life.” “I know I’m an idiot to be particular.” “The best way to get on in life is to be a toy and plaything of men.” Haven’t you heard these re marks or others like them made by nice girls, who, having ex pressed momentary discourage ment in this matter, go right on being particular and having Ideals. Here’s a typical letter of this kind, from a typically nice girl who signs herself "Marguerita.” “Dear Miss Fairfax,” she writes. Although I have read many of your articles and found them in tensely interesting, I’ve yet to find anything among them to fit my case. "Unfortunately, I’m a born idealist, terribly sensitive and much misunderstood. If it were not for a sense of humor I would be the most miserable creature on earth. “Is there any place, in this world for an idealist? Or have they gone out of atyle as mid- Victorian ideas! “I don’t know what it la in this cool, calnv reserved nature of mine that arouses infatuation in the many men I have known. I can't respond to their ardor, as I believe true love to be based on friendship plus a mu tual interest. These ‘affairs’ usually end in a quarrel and bitter words. "Some time ago I met a man who was a gentleman—it was an other case of 'love at first sight.* Recognizing many good qualities, I discouraged that idea and offered, instead, my friend ship. "This didn’t seem to satisfy him. It ended in a quarrel and a lecture which made me 'sit up and take notice.’ "Perhaps the fault was mine. Perhaps Idealism is all right In 1 is Raisin Bread Day Serve my raisin bread at its best—on Wednes days.

"This happened over a year ago. I’m unable to erase it from my mind. I find him constantly in my thoughts and at times I’m very lonely and regret my action in the matter. "Am I in love with him? Or is It that I just want him back to worship at my feet as before? I dreamed of love very different from this. What’s the use of having character 1£ one can’t find anyone to correspond to them? "In conclusion, please do not misconstrue. I am not a prude nor am I trying to assume a ’holier than thou’ attitude. What I failed to put on paper you can easily read betwen the lines. Please give me a little encourage ment to go on—a little hope for happiness—and I shall be ever grateful to you.” Encouragement? Bless your heart, dear, it’s girls like you —girls with ideals they try to live up to —who encourage .us all to ."carry on” —who make this world a decent, civilized, kind place in which to live. Any place for Idealists? Never were they more needed every where than just now. The girl with a high ideal of womanhood and motherhood will "keep the home fires” burning, illuminating for the next genera tion the way to happiness, serv ice and love. You are pretty, attractive and young, Marguerita. Your letter doesn’t say so, but I can read that much between the lines. And because you are attractive all sorts of men are attracted to you from various motives. The man whose philosophy of life is sordid resents your ideals because they protect you from himself. But stand firm. Don’t be dazzled by his shallow plati tudes of materialism nor by the counterfeit of love he offers you, which is nothing in the world but self-seeking. You’re not in love with such a man, because you don’t respect him. Your regrets is due to your missing certain pleasant qualities he may have, and most of all his attentions. For every girl likes attention. You’ll not find 100 per cent per fection in any man, Marguerita— nor in any woman. For- we’re but human. Among your friends and acquaintances, however, seek but those who are patterning their lives after worthy models who are "practical Idealists.” When such p. man offers you his love let time test the per manence of his affection and yours, then gladly accept his un selfish love "with ideals.” Noth ing less is worth while. You may lose a little surface popularity through clinging to your ideals. But the friends you'll make and hold will be the kind you can rely on “through thick and thin”—loyal, wonderful friends. Fine young men —and thank God there are hundreds of thou sands of them in this world —are looking for the girl with ideals.

{TUESDAY, APRIL 21, 1925. IwA suck J /ff I BARNEY TO WORK IN OPENER Walter Believes Himself Ready to Do Seif Proud In Wash ington Inaugural By R. D. THOMAS PHILADELPHIA, April 21. Walter Johnson, who lost out on the distinction of pitching the opening game of the 1925 cam paign for the Griffmen because he was not ready, is leftithe honor of mound duty in the world cham pions' inaugural on their home lot tomorrow, with the Yankees as opponents. Tough breaks in the weather prevented Johnson from being in top shape for the opener and, as mentioned heretofore, he was not quite ready when he faced the Markmen last Saturday. But that game, according to Walter him self, gave him just the work he needed to sharpen his stuff and, despite one cold day experienced here, he believes himself in the proper condition to show the peo ple back home that he is some thing more than the shadow of the Johnson of old. Judged by last year’s records he 10 still the American League’s lead ing pitcher. At the age of thirty eight he appears to be a young man Funding beside Vean Gregg, who is only two years older. Washington fans who may have regarded with dismay the hammif; Ing Walter Johnson underwent when the Athletics beet him would have found cause for encouragement had they witnessed his performance. Ex cept fn one or two instances he was invincible when he bore down. A fluke hit scored one run. and a home run that might have been hit eff any pitcher any time accounted for the other two. Pitching of the brand he fed to the Mackmen would win many ball games. According to the Washington ball players there is an inter esting bit of psychology that works against the Hg smoke bailer.. Most ot the batsmen that face him, say the Griffmen, have everything to gain and nothing to lose. There is little prestige loot by failing to hit Johnson. Be cause of his own scruples and excellent control there la little danger of him heanfng a bats man. So the boys stand up there and whale away without worrying. If they connect, all well and good; if they don't, well, what of it? It has been said that Johnson could greatly increase his effective ness by dusting off a batter now and then and giving the men who face him something serious to think about besides hitting the bell. But the big .fellow has gone along well enough these many years without resorting to that sort of practice to win games and It doesn’t appeal to him now. Tears ago when Johnson was at his smokiest he beaned a fellow Who nearly passed into the great beyond. The accident so affected Walter it was necessary to remove him from the game. All the Griffmen can hope for In the thrde-game series with the Mackmen, ending today, is an even break. The second game was called off early because It was so cold that neither ball players nor tans relished the sport. The Griffmen’s optimism rose perceptibly today when Mike Martin pronounced Oswald Bluege in shape to resume play. Mike McNally, for a player who pitched in with little practice, has produced all that could be expected of him but it is not to be denied that the left side of the Griffmen’s innerworks is much more formidable when Bluege plays. The Griffmen have felt Bluege’s absence keenly and possibly the veteran Peckiapaugh more than anybody else. Oswald and Roger are a groat combination on the left side of the Griffmen’s inner works- Bluege covers a lot of ground that not every third base man can handle. This feature of Bluege’s play may be over looked at times because of his gracefulnes and ability to make the hard ones appear easy. Bluege saves Peckinpaugh many an effort to the veteran’s right. Bluege has had a varied experi ence with his arm. He played for a while with twitching shoulder muscles, the result of being hit by a ball. The pains diminished and he was not bothered until the in- SOFT 4 for SI.OO. Permanent linen-like finish. Won’t turn yellow. JOHNSON SAYS HE’S READY TO TAKE MOUND IN WASHINGTON INAUGURAL WASHINGTON TIMES SPORTS Fans Losing Time In Not Buying Tickets Before Opener Washington baseball fans are wasting time in not grabbing the available 13,000 unreserved seat tickets for tomorrow’s opening game of the season. Their reluctance means that they will have to delay their entrance into the park tomor row, thereby missing choice lo cations. Fans with tickets in their hands will do the hustling for the sun seats, f which are quite likely to be far more com fortable on a cold afternoon than seats in the covered stand. Those hung up in the lines be fore the ticket windows will be the losers. The tickets are on sale at the park and Spalding’s today. consistent weather in New York af fected his injury. His shoulder then so painful that it was with an effort that he lifted his arrrt. Copious applications of Mike Mar tin’s liniment and generally skillful treatment by the Griffmen’s trainer have returned Bluege to playing shape more quickly than might have been expected. His shoulder gave promise of becoming a serious prob lem. Nearly every human that one meets in Philadelphia wants to talk baseball. The Quaker City this early in the race is puzzing about a pos sible pennant for the Mackmen. It will be remembered that Connie Mack’s team came forward with something of a rush toward the end of last season and finishad a creditable leader of the second di vision. It is a lukewarm Mackian fan who seees the Athletics finishing outside the select four this season, and in truth, to a rather impartial observer it does appear that the clan of Connie is bent upon making somd sort of noise. The near clean up made of the series with the Red Sox is not to be taken too seriously in view of the low ranking of the Boston Club. But if the Mackmen’s performance against the Griffmen the other day was an excellent ex ample of their capability, Stanley Harris and his playmates may well reckon for trouble in defense of their championship not heretofore expected. However, it may be as Clark Grif fith says, to wit “the Athletics play ball in spurts. I never saw a team that could kick a ball around as badly as they do when they once get going." This approbrium might have been offset with the argument that Griff never saw a team that played better ball than the Macks play when they get off on the right foot. Allen Russell is lost to the team for an indefinite period. The relief Citcher was permitted to visit his ome in Baltimore and got there just in time to run into a quaran tine. Russell's little son Is ill and in quarantine until the nature of hs illness is determined. SOOTHES ON AND ON LIKE BROOK How long will it be before Everett Scott misses a game? How many more consecutive contests will he add to his world record of 1,296? This Iron Man is only human, after all, and age is slowly but surely slowing him up—even* tually he will have to miss a game, or leave the Yankee line-up per manently. But just think of it— four more games and he will have played 1,300 without a miss, and if he continues his remarkable run through the 1925 season, he will have reached the astounding total Os 1,445! Scott hasn’t shown any per ceptible signs of slowing up during the training season, nor has Mana ger Huggins given any hint that he doesn’t expect to use the vet eran in his regular position at shortstop all season. A Yankee team without Everett Scott at short would be as much a sensa tion as a golfer who didn’t talk about his golf game. And speaking of golf, Scott is one of the many members of the former world champions who go in for the ancient and honorable pastime. Bowling, too, is a hobby with Scotty, and some day he hopes to have his own bowling establishment in Ft. Wayne, In diana. From 1914 to 1921 Everett Scott was with the Boston Red Sox. On June 20, 1916, he started his record-breaking string of games played, continuing it when he was traded to the Yankees in the fall of 1921. In July, 1922, Everett nearly lost his precious record, and had to spend S4O in order to reach Chicago in time for the end of the game after the train he was traveling on, apart from his team-mates, had been wrecked. Scotty has probably the most accurate throw to first base of any shortstop in the game. He has played in five World Series. When he played his I,oooth con secutive game he was presented with a medal by the Secretary of the Navy. When he plays bls 1,500th game he will probably get a medal from the President. THIS PLAYER’S PEEVISH ABOUT HIS BACK MONEY Mack Arnette, former member of the Rochester International League i team, caused not a little embarrass- j ment to the Rochester dub In Kingston, N. C., when the tribe stopped there for a game. He at tached the Iraggage of the team' on an alleged salary claim of $265. Of ficials of the club immediately gave bond.

LOUIS, April 21.—Despite the fact that St. Louis fans are almost a unit in supporting “Baby Doll” Bill Jacobson against President Phil Ball, of the Browns, the local Amer ican league club has no intention ot surrendering to the salary demands of the rebellious outfielder whose bat is very much needed now in Manager Slsler’s daily lineup. Business Manager Bill Friel, of the Browns, announced today that the club officials were making no new moves in Jake’s direction. And, as Jake apparently is making no attempt to hustle to St. Louis, he probably will come under the ban of players who are ineligible for falling to join their club ten days after the season opens. The major league rules, adopted pursuant to the provisions of article 11, section 17, of the major league agreement of January 12. 1921, carry a clause which will place Bill Jacobson on the ineligible list if he falls to report to the Browns by next Thursday. The clause which covers Jacob son’s case is section 17, and reads: “Ineligible Players—Any player who violates his contract or reserva tion. Or who fails to report to his club within ten days after trfe open ing of the championship season, or who participates in a game with or against a club containing or controlled by ineligible players or a player under indictment for con duct detrimental to the good repute of professional baseball, shall be considered an ineligible player and placed on the ineligible list. The commissioner may also at any time determine, either of his own mo tion or at the request of a league or club, that the best interests of the game require a player to be de clared ineligible, and after such declaration no club shall be per mitted to employ him unless he shall have been reinstated.” With the season starting last Tuesday, the ten-day period cover ing holdouts will expire for Jacob son next Thursday. And should Jake fall from the eligible set then he would have to apply for a re instatement before becoming eligi ble. This part is covered in the following code: Reinstatment—“Sec. 18. Any vol untarily retired or ineligible player may apply for reinstatement, or to have his status changed from the ineligible to the voluntarily retired list. Such application shall be filed with the president of his major league, who shall certify the ap plication to the commissioner, who shall determine whether or not the application shall be granted and who may grant it upon such terms and conditions as the facts may in his judgment warrant.” Business Manager Friel said that so each big league ball player is familiar with all regulations, a copy of the agreements and rules whicn define the relations of leagues, clubs and players is presented to them. Players are requested to sign a receipt slip after receiving the book, Friel added. SANDLOTTERS to meet IN TYPOGRAPHICAL HALL Plans of the sandlotters for the coming baseball season will be chewed over and digested tonight when the boys gather at the Typo graphical Temple, <23 G street northwest, promptly, or otherwise, at 8 o’clock.

THIS world is filled to overflowing with troubles and tribulations, as everybody knows, and now some have come to add them selves to the ordinary burden of this writer who, in one glad outburst of his golden heart, will have the members of the Washing ton and New York American League clubs as his guests at the Greenwich Village Follies tomorrow night. Leaning heavily upon Dick Maney, the gentlemanly advance man for the Follies, this writer attempted to tell something about the show to be seen by the big league heroes He mentioned the fact that Irene Delroy is a “raving beauty." He spoke of the “thirty lush and luxuriant beauties who make up tho artists’ model groups." But the gentlemanly Maney went a trifls too far when he said that Daphne Pollard, the little English lady, has “the smallest feet in the world." Bing, bang, that was where he put one of his own large dogs right Into the middle of the trouble traffic. Little Rosebud, who plans to accompany this writer to the Follies tomorrow night, glimpsed that statement in this column. She pondered awhile. She re called distinctly that she had small tootsies of her own, that somebody had told her they “were the smallest he had ever seen in active operation,” or something to the general effect. As she pondered, she slowly came to identify that chap quoted here. Then she got busy. What did we mean by saying that Daphne Pollard, or any other person in the world, had smaller feet than she had herself? She wanted to know right away, too, gosh darn it. It was useless to blame it all upon Dick Maney. It was quite impossible to point out that it was Maney, not this writer, who made such extravagant claims. There it w’as in this column in black and white. When Little Rosebud gets her dander up, she looks more like a full blown peony, and at that moment she resembled a garden filed with peonies, with a typhoon raging. So, to end this incident. Little Rosebud will be there tomorrow night for one purpose, to see just exactly how small Daphne Pollard’s feet really are. And whether or not Daphne makes good Maney’s assertion, Little Rosebud is never, never going to believe it. She’ll remember that she saw them “with her own eyes” and “seeing is believing.” You’ll all know her when you see her pretty brown eyes aimed straight at Daphne Pollard’s feet. Thats all she wants to see. It may be giving away a boudoir secret to say that Little Rosebud wears 1% A and believes Daphne hopelessly outclassed. Tomorrow the big league season opens here. The athletes will be tired after their day’s exertions. There will be a ring show at Washington Barracks. That will attract some of them. But that “skin show” at Poli’s should grab most of the diamond heroes. Oh, They’re Learning. HAVING mentioned at odd times the peculiar complex of the New York sports writers concerning their opinions, it is comforting to note the fol lowing in Sunday’s New York News, written by Will Murphy: “This writer’s observation of American League teams has been quite limited, and it’s none of his business anyhow, but from pro longed peering at the world cham pion Senators he feels brave enough to say that the team that beats the pride of Washington will win the American League pennant. Moreover, that team will know it has been in a fierce and bitter battle.” And here’s another choice bit from the typewriter pounded by Frederick G. Lieb, of the New York Telegram: “That Washington club means business. No doubt about it! Shortly before the season opened we picked Washington to again win the American League pennant. The series just ended at the stadium strengthens our convic tion that Washington is the best club in the league. “It seems to me that there has been an inclination in some quar ters to underestimate the strength of the Senators. It really is quite a ball club. It got a lot of good breaks last season, but in Goslin, Rice, Peck, Judge. Harris, Bluege, Ruel and the regular pitchers it really has a wealth of material. “It is a good offensive and de fensive club. Rice always was a fancy worker in the garden. Gos lin was a terrible fielder when he first into the league but he has come along fast and today little gets away from him. Ruel, traded from the Yanks in »he deal which brought Schang hare, stands pretty near the top of the big league catchers.” Watch Your Step. RUMORS have certain Balti more boxing promoters mak ing plans to enter Washing ton in promoting capacities. This is no boost for boxing in the District of Columbia Boxing is almost dead in Balti more because of the warfare among the promoters. If they are permitted here, it means the end of the boxing game here, even after its present healthy start. Baltimore promoters attempted to conduct boxing in Maryland on the outskirts of the District and what happened They fliwered. If they attempt to come into the District itself, under any disguise whatever, they will deserve no support. Baltimore, bigger than Washington and the home of more boxers, stands ready at their ser vice. Let them stay at home.

On New Year night, at Fort Myer, Bashara defeated Turner, giving him his first setback since coming to Washington. Turner had been out of the ring for months before that mixup and. though he offered no alibis, he did ask for a return bout. Bashara Injured his right hand shortly afterward and ever since has been on the shelfnursing the Injury. He is now reported in good condition and so will be on hand next week at the Barracka. The Turner-Bashara battle will go ten rounds at 160 pounds and, as the fans have been waiting for it ever since the year began, a packed house is expected. Milin 0 Ti hhhwi CHANNEL NEW YORK, April 31—Miss Helen Wainwright, champion all round swimmer of America, will not attempt to swim the English channel this summer. Miss Wain- 1 wright announces that she has been obliged to abandon the trial be cause of an injury she suffered some time ago, that has been j troubling her of late. Miss Wain-1 weight’s club mate, Gertruda Ederle will maek the trial alone. The latter will sail for England June 17. In announcing her decision to abandon the attempt to swim the twenty miles across the channel, the star of the Women’s Swimming Association said: “1 threw out a high muscle In jumping off a street car early last winter and although I seemed all right again in a few days, resum ing competition without any in convenience, the trouble came back most unexpectedly recently, when I slipped on the wet pavement no a rainy evening. Then I thought best to see a specialist. “The doctor declared the injury temportary and not at all serious, but he said there would be danger of recurrence until the torn muscle had been given the time and care necessary to heal completely. That settled the channel swim for me this season. “Naturally I couldn’t think of al lowing the Women’s Swimming Association to go to the expense of sending me abroad under the circumstances. That I am terribly disappointed goes without saying. The channel swim has been m/ chief ambition for several years and I hate to lose the opportunity Apart from the possibility of hav ing my leg go back on me, I never in my life felt in better condition for the long grind. “As I am assured of complete and permanent recovery, I consider the trial only postponed. l am hopeful that I will get another chance, perhaps next year I look forward to it anyhow.

JOHNNY DUNDEE TO MEET PRESIDENT WHILE HERE Jahnny Dundee, world’s featherweight champion, who is matched to meet Honey Boy Finnigan before the National Capital Sporting Club at the Auditorium next Tuesday night, will be received at the White House next Monday noon. Congressman Fred A. Britten, who onee held the amateur welterweight championship, and distinguished narty will accompany Dundee on his visit to President. Dundee is looking forward to a meeting with President Coolidge. During his fifteen years fighting career he has met Presidents Roose velt, Taft and Harding. Colonel Roosevelt was one of his greatest admirers and sat at the ringside in New York several times when Dundee was fighting his way to the top. He met Chief Justice Taft at a dinner in New York when the latter was President. President Harding gave him an audience in the White House. It is not arenerallv known hut. President Coolidge signed the bill legalizing boxing when he was governor of Massachusetts. Dun dee will extend him a special in vitation to attend his bout here. Dundee has probably met more distinguished people than any box er of his time. He recently re turned from a tour of Europe dur ing which he W a the UMt ot the Prince of Wales in London. Ho met the president of France in Paris. He was received by the Pope and the King of Italy, his native country. While in Rome he was tendered a luncheon by Premier Mussolini. One of his prized possessions is a black silk shirt and tie, part of the dress of the Fassisti, and a present from Mussolini. Dundee was called upon to make a speech at the luncheon given him by Mussolini. It was a very eloquent and effective example of oratory and consisted of three words, “I thank you." Many of the biggest men in Italian official life were present, and Dundee was so overwhelmed by the pomp and ceremony that when he finished the three words of bis speech he fell groggily in bis chair for the count. James J. Johnston, president of the National Sports Alliance and manager of the champion, was present with Dundee at the lunch eon. It was the first time Johnson was ever silent for a period of two hours. He did not understand a word that was spoken.. He had to bow so often in response to greet ings from the guests that for the first time in his life he was able to touch the floor with his hands. Dundee will be in great shape for his contest with Finnigan. It will be the first time a title-holder has appeared in a Washington ring in a bonafide contest with a real con tender. Dundee has had the dis tinction of holding two titles at once, the featherweight and the Junior lightweight crowns. But for Benny Leonard, whom he met nine times, winning a newspaper decis ion several times, he would probably have held three world titles at once.

BRITTON WON’T LET HONORED STOP HIM Should He Weigh More Thar 160 He’ll Forfeit, But Fight If Billy Britton, the “Kansa4 Cyclone,” weighs more than 160 pounds at 3 o'clock tomorrow, he will forfeit his SIOO to Johnny Gill, but the latter will climb right through the ropes and battle him the ten rounds featuring the Wash ington Barracks program. That's Gill's way, according to his man ager, “Pop” Barrett. “I don’t want Washington fans to think that there won’t be a fight merely because Britton might weigh more than Gill,” explains Barrett. “I understand Britton is boxing as a light heavyweight.. Well, Gill will fight him if be weghs a ton, but he will take that SIOO. That’s merely business. There will be a fight, all right; don’t worry about that. “Gill will probably enter the ring as the under-dog. That doesn't bother him any. He was the same thing the night he fought Paul Berlenbach, but he stayed the limit with that terrible slugger. Britton is said to be a hitter, but he doesn't rank with Berlenbach and the latter couldn’t keep Gill on tbs floor.” Britton is expected here late to day, but Gill will not come down from his home in York, Pa., until tomorrow. He will carry his train ing right up to the last minute. These middleweights promise con siderable action tomorrow night for the Barracks ringworms. They are of the rushing type and ’head-on collisions will probably be frequent and sanguinary. Judging from ticket demands, there will be an other large turnout of the fans who like the Barracks show.

TUESDAY, APRIL 21, 1925. DUNDEE HELPED OPEN GARDEN AND AIDS IN ITS CLOSING NEW YORK Anril 21.—The signing of Johnny Dundee *nd Sid Terris for the closing bout in Madison Square Garden, May 5, recalls th* nix--r —“’cST s r^° U o i Os '''l IHIy at last. But there will be no five-runs-ln-four-games record made at any stage of the proceedings. It Is all very well for the Giants to beat the east. Outside of the Dodgers, they can and will do that seven times a week. But the real contention this year will come from the West, as is usually the case.
