The women’s auxiliary of the Columbia Typographical Union, local No. 101, is starting this cam paign, it was stated today by George J. Seibold, secretary of the union. For the purpose of this cam paign, the auxiliary, which has been functioning purely as a social organization for some time past, has been revivified in the form of an educational society. There are, approximately, 4.500 members in the Columbia Typo graphical auxiliary. It is their in tention to acquaint the auxiliaries of each one of the seventy-four labor organizations in this city, af filiated with the Central Union, of the importance of buying union-made goods and patronizing stores friendly to organized labor. In this movement, the women are following directly in the footsteps of the Central Labor Union, which is planning a drive for more in tense effort in behalf of union stores and goods. It was learned today that the auxiliary has been laying its plans for this campaign for the past sev eral weeks, and officially will in dorse the idea at its next meeting. The women then will be divided into committees, to call upon the various other auxiliaries and form them into committees to call on the officials of the stores they patronize, bringing to their atten tion the economic power of the wives and other women dependents of union labor men in this city. According to Mr. Seibold, this movement is not to be in any sense a boycott, but merely an insistence upon getting union goods, just as if the woman patron should ask for an article whose worth was made known by national advertising.

Preliminary returns from the Purvey would indicate that ren tals on smaller properties; Hhat is, the small individual houses and two family apartments, are still slightly on the increase but that the peak of rentals obtain able in the older and less desirable individual properties has about been reached. Few Repairs Made. The returns also show that prac tically no repairs whatever are be ing made on these smaller proper ties, other than repairs of roofs and plumbing which are required under the sanitary laws, Chairman Mets erott stated. No estimate of the general rental trend among big apartment houses has yet been formed, according to the commission head, because in sufficient returns are at hand. The data is being obtained through personal visits to premises where rents were heretofore fixed by the commission and also by letters addressed to occupants of in dividual and two-family apartments. The completed report will be turned over to the President when the Rent Commission goes out next month and w’ill be filed as Govern ment data from which Congress w’ill be able to tell in the futurs whether or not rental legislation is needed. New Plan Proposed. President Coolidge today was made acquainted with a new plan for rental control in Washington by former Senator L. Heisler Ball, now a member of the Rent Com mission. The details of the plan Senator Ball at this time declined to nrake public, saying he would confer with various real estate men, contractors and builders before being readv to make any announcement. Mr. Ball has assembled data re lating to the average of Govern ment! salaries paid ;n Washing‘on and has made this the basis in his calculations regarding proper and adequate" rents in the city. He has been working on his new plan, which is believed to be some form of cooperation between land lords and tenants, for several weeks.

D. WEYER, Tnteraatfonal Wewe Service. BERLIN, April 27.—One-half of Germany was dismayed today and the other half was enthusiasti cally gleeful over the victory which General Paul von Hinden burg won at the polls yesterday and which makes him President of the Republic. Hindenburg's plurality stood at approximately 900,000 in the offi cial tally at noon today. The latest official figures were: Hindenburg, 14,639,399; Marx, 13,752,244; Thaelmann, 1,931,593, and other candidates, 21,910. Victory for Monarchy. Hindenburg’s election was, in the opinion of all political observers, a victory for the monarchy, although they emphasized that the possibility of Germany returning the former Kaiser Wilhelm to power was re mote. The big vote polled by the Com munist candidate, Ernst Thaelmann —once a resident of the United States —was a big surprise. It was the contention, or defense of the supporters of Doctor Karl Marx, the defeated Republican candidate; that the Communist vote was what brought about the victory of Hin denburg. The Marx forces had believed the Communist vote would go to Marx, and if it had, the 900,000 plurality of Hindenburg would have been cut down to a point where Marx would have been the victor. What Will France Do? Now that Hindenburg, an avowed militarist, the Marx forces declare, is elected to the" presidency, Ger many has turned its attention to the one great question which is in the minds of everybody: “What will France do?” The Marx followers made no at tempt to deny that they believed that the revival of Hindenburg also meant the revival of the time honored "goose step” and other al lurements of German militarism. The Hindenburg supporters said his election meant only a greater regard for the progress of Germany through more definite negotiations with the allies. Hindenburg is expected to take office about May 15. It will be that time before all of the official documents and attendant details of the election are completed, it was said. The present cabinet will within a few days offer its resignation to Hindenburg and he will ask it to remain in office for the time being, it was said. Hindenburg Hears News. Hindenburg received the news at the estate of a friend near Lune burg. He will come to Berlin Thursday and prepare to take office, his friends said. Elaborate preparations were being made in Berlin for a triumphal entry of the former field marshal, but it was said that Hindenburg would discourage such ostentation and come quietly and, if possible unnoticed into the city. If the present plans go through, Hindenburg will take the oath of office in the Reichstag May 5. The term is for seven years. Goes Strong With Labor. A feature of the big vote Hinden burg polled, and somewhat of a surprise, was that cast for him in the labor and industrial centers. Nationalist newspapers warned the nationalists against a “prema ture jubilee.” They said “the work of recovery has only begun.” The Democratic papers were try ing to appear good losers. They said “sentimentality won over po litical sense.” The Tageblaat laid Hindenberg’s victory to “the un shakable popularity of the former

MASON, International News Service. PARIS. April 27.—50 far as France is concerned, former Field Marshal Paul von Hindenburg still Is "war prisoner No. 237,” the French foreign office pointed out to day in commenting on Hindenburg’s victory in the German Presidential election. The foreign office said it "did not intend to take any action what soever,” but that under the Ver sailles treaty Hindenburg still must remain as listed there. The foreign office considers Hindenburg’s election "reveals the real spirit of Germany and facili tates France's task” and that France "can now count on the aid of England and .America to carry out rigorous disarmament and other clauses of the Versailles treaty.” The election, the .foreign office asserted, also will greatly aid the ambassador’s council in reaching a decision this week. The council has before it the report of the military control claim which is said to shew that Germany has not returned to a full peace basis. Here are eleven war criminal charges against Hindenburg, the foreign office brought out. They Were given as follows: First—Criminal deportation. Second —Abduction of women and children. Third —Armed looting Fourth —Destruction by dynarr.it s. Fifth—lncendiarism. Sixth —Criminal measures against civilians. Seventh —Alleged medical inspec tion of women and young girls. Eighth—Violation of graves in cemeteries. Ninth —The poisoning of water supply. Tenth—Destruction of forests- Eleventh—Pillage of food supplies of the United States destired to Interned civilian population. The French viewpoint, as re fleeted by the newspapers follows: The Morning Press: "The German election was a battle between a eaceful republic and a bellicose monarchy and which, unhappily for France, was -i militaristic victory. The Matin: "The election of Hin denburg constitutes defiance towird France and is the greatest disap pointment to England and America.” The Journal: “It is difficult now to believe in the German peip'e's peaceful sentiment. Hindenburg incans the wilful destruction of the Dawes plan, which Hindenburg has already condemned as not oeing possible of execution.” The Echo de Paris: "The election proves beyond doubt that there does not exist ‘a new Germany.’ as England and America hav» thought.” Lloyd George Blames France. SOUTHAMPTON. England.. April IT—"I think France has driven Germany to this.” said David Lloyd George, formerly premier of Eng land when he arrived here today from a vacation at Maderia. "I do not think Hindenburg will do anything rash. On the whole he a steady old man. His election la an indication of the renewed spirit which has risen in Germany as a result of the Poincare or na tionalist policy.” International News Service. LONDON. April 27.—European politics have been thrown into the greatest confusion by the election of Hindenburg. Great Britain was shocked and baffled. In some quarters concern was felt for the Dawes plan through which the allies are col lecting from Germany reparations fqr the great war. It would be easy, political ob servers emphasized, for Germany to sabotage the Dawes plan through one subterfuge or another. The easiest method would be for Germany to hold that the increas ing demands of France were not possible of fulfillment. France, England expects, will in all likelihood refuse longer to ac cept Germany’s promise that it will remain on a peace footing. France, it was said, probably will ask for specific guarantees for its security. Diplomats are looking to Great Britain to become mediator between the two traditional enemies. Diplo mats said they were apprehensive however, that Poland and Czecho slovakia would be drawn into the political maelstrom which would make it exceedingly difficult for England to remain in a strictly neutral position. ▼lews of N. Y. Newspapers. NEW YORK, April 27.—New York newspapers for the most part attributed the election of Von Hin denburg as president of Germany to sentiment and predicted its dis astrous reaction to the country.

That shift will react most of all to the injury of the Germans themselves.” Fear for Dawes Pian Felt in Washington; Borah Is Optimistic By GEORGE R. HOLMES. News of the election of Field Marshall von Hindenburg to the presidency of Germany was re ceived in Washington with mixed emotions and widely varying opin ions today as to the result It will have on world conditions. It cannot be said that the Ameri can government vs either pleased or displeased with the outcome of the German election —rather, from the vantage point of 3,500 miles away, it is merely “interested” and somewhat apprehensive over the political developments that are likely to follow within the next six months. Chief concern Is felt here over two aspects of the von Hindenburg victory: (1) the probable effect it will have on Germany’s continuing to carry out the Dawes plan, and (2) whether the election of the kai ser’s right-hand man can be re garded as the first step toward the restoration of the monarchy. Officials said today that time will have to answer both ques tions. Senator William E. Borah of Idaho, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and perhaps the closest observer of European conditions in Washing ton, was among those who pro fessed to see no cause for alarm in the nationalist victory. “I don’t think von Hindenburg’s election needs regarded as necessarily distui-oing.” he said. “There probably will be a recrud escence of the nationalistic spirit in Germany, but if this is direct ed along the right lines it will be helpful. I believe it will be direct ed along the right lines. "There is going to be a lot of talk about Germany arming and getting ready for another war. I do not believe there will be any thing of the sort. "Germany is disarmed. She could not arm if she wanted to. I expect to see a strong effort on the part of Germany to retain her national integrity, both territorially and economically, and I for one hope she may.” The world in general and Europe in particular will be better off, Borah believes, with strong, stable Germany, then with a weak and chaotic Germany. “I think,” he continued, "that the world had better proceed on the theory that the German people have the right to select the men they want.” Senator Claude A. Swanson, (Dem.) of Virginia, the leading ex ponent in the Senate of Woodrow Wilson’s foreign policies, expressed somewhat different views. “The election of von Hindenburg put Germany under suspicion," he said. “European affairs have again been made uncertain and possibly threatening. “The only way this uncertainty and suspicion can be removed is for the victors m this election to indicate a desire for peace and repudiation of the past military ambitions of Germany.” Ex-Secretary of State Lansing ex- WASHINGTON IS GROWING Do You Own a Home In This Wonder City?

BLUNDERINDRY ORDINANCE IS FOUND Alexandria Trials Held Up Be cause of Error in Typography ALEXANDRIA, Va„ April 27. Three men, arraigned in police ccurt today on charges of violating the prohibition law, were released on total bonds of $2,000, because of a typographical error in the new city prohibition ordinance. The point was raised by Charles Henry Smith, attorney for the de fondants. He asserted that the State prohibition commissioner, with headquarters in Richmond, must be notified of violations of the prohibition law before cas33 could be tried in the local police court. Investigation revealed that the substitution of the word “and’ for the word “or,” in the ordinance, bore out Mr. Smith’s statement The ordinance read: "The Common wealth’s attorney and the State prohibition commissioner shall be notified before the case can be tried.” Judge F. G. Duvall ruled that under the wording of the statute the trial would have to be contin ued until the State commissioner had been notified, but stated he was convinced the framers of the ordinance had intended that the notification of either of the two cfficials named to be sufficient. The men charged with violation nf the ordinance were Guy Cobb, Thomas Wharton, both of Gum Springs, Va., and J. P. Sowers, cf Fort Humphrey, Va. Their cases were continued until Saturday. A fifty-eight gallon still was raided Saturday night near Pohlck Church, by special officer Virgil Williams. The still and 250 gallons of mash were discovered in art underground cement structure.

"I do not believe,” he said, "that Von Hindenburg’s election is neces sarily a reactionary movement —it may be only a conservative move ment. I have great confidence in the common sense of the German people.” Administration officials and diplo mats generally declined to be quoted on the ground that such comment might be Interpreted as "meddling” in Germany’s Internal affairs. Privately, however, their com ment displayed considerable va riance of opinion and keen wonder ment as to just what the elevation of the old field marshal portends. There was general agreement that “Europe is going to be skittish for sometime,” as one of them phrased it. France, it was sard, undoubtedly will regard the election as a re crudescence of the old military spirit, and there will be a stiffen ing’ of the nationalistic movement In France as well as in the other countries whose borders touch Ger many.

R.S.IMSSULKS IT SCIENTIST CHURCH All Sin, Disease, Sorrow Due to Error, Says Speaker From New York There are no incurable diseases and there is no physical affliction which cannot be remedied, in the opinion of Robert Stanley Ross, of New York, who was the speaker at a meeting in the Arcade Audi torium yesterday afternoon under the auspices of the Fourth Church of Christ, Scientist. The speaker, whose sdbject was "Christian Sci ence: The Religion of Reality,” was introduced by Charles S, Baum, first reader of the Fourth Church. "Christian’Science shows us that all the sin, disease, sorrow, poverty and death in the world is due to the error, based upon the supposed reality of the delusion that God either sends *or permits evU,” Mr. Ross said. "Sin, disease and death are not good, hence**not of God; therefore they are unreal, and you can be gin right here and now to resist your own, and the world’s' belief in them—a belief that is piiscalled law, although there is no law, di vine or human, behind it —and be free. "Mankind has only to be awaken ed spiritually to see both the un reality of evil by Which it has been deceived and the unchanging per-, fectlon of God’s universe and the real man. Through this open door a disillusioned world will be only too glad to escape from evil and its torments. “Does Christian Science presume to heal Incurable diseases? I The answer is an emphatic and assuring, yes; and in accordance with divine authority. No doubt there are many people in the audience who were healed by Christian Science after other methods of treatment had failed to help them. Let us understand clearly, therefore, that a so-called incurable disease is mere ly one which the medical profes sion is unable to cure. In the sight of infinite love there are no in curable diseases; there never have been any, there never will toe any. “The Psalmist knew this when he sang: “Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases.” Note well that It reads t*ll thine Iniquities and all thy diseases, not some of them. Why Disease Returns. "Here let us suppose a case to which a surgeon is called. Owing to fear, amiability, hate, or some other phase of mortal mind, the patient believes he has a growth in or on his body which can be gotten rid of only byway of a surgical operation. Even though the growth—which must have been conceived mentally ->erore it could have become evident physically— be removed, the cause of the diffi culty—that Is, the patient’s belief in or fear of it —is uncorrected. The top of the weed has been cut off, but the roots are still there. This will explain why some dis eases, at least, supposedly cured by material treatment, have been known to return in one form or another. "Christian Science, on the other hand, when applied by one who is normally and spiritually qualified to do so, and presuming, of course, upon the willingness and readiness of the patient to do his part,— Christian Science, I say, will take such a case and remove the physi cal effect by eradicating first the roots or unseen mental cause. In stead of endeavoring to heal man who is sick or a sinner in this perfectly good, whole, complete universe of Spirit’s creating, the Christian Scientist alms to demon strate the spiritual fact that man, God’s man, the only man there really is, is harmonious and up right, now and forever, untouched by sin, disease, and death. "When a so-called diseased condi tion is overcome in this spiritual manner, the patient is benefited not only physically, but mentally and morally; hence there can be no relapse or return.

Four core borings, to show the nature of earth and bedrock at various portions of the site, have been completed, it was stated today and. unless the probings reveal con ditions which need further Investi gation. no further core borings will be necessary at this point. The probing is made with a steel pipe which is driven through the ground to bed rock, a stream of water, forced through the pipe under great pressure assisting in the cutting. Great care is required in learning the contour of the bed rock. It is explained, as a great caisson, within which the abutment will be con structed. must be driven down and must fit the rock surface with as almost water-tight bearing. The probings are expected to provide ail the required information before the close of this week, it is said.

Election News of Today and 1873 For the first time in forty-one years, Washington next Saturday night will hold an election. The Federation of Citiens’ Associations meets in the District Building to select a Citizens’ Advisory Council. Who remembers the last election held here—October 14, 1873? On this date, the people of Washington elected a House of Delegates, a body which went out of existence in 1874, when the form of government was changed here. Have the times changed? How do the pre-election days of this generation compare with those of 1873? Is the populace as excited and interested in the election today as forty-one years ago? In the campaign of 1873, prohibition, better working hours and wages for the working man were the principal issues. Beginning today, six days before the election Saturday, The Washington Times will carry two comparative stories. In one column will be pre-election news of 1873, and in another pre-election news of Saturday’s election. Watch for it every day. (Note: Pre-election news of 1873 is gathered from the files of the old Washington Daily Morning Chronicle, on file in the Congressional Library). In 1873. There will he a mass meeting to night at the intersection of Seventh atreet, New York avenue, and ISOO has been con tributed. Miss Anna S.

COSMOPOLITAN in its aspects will be the strenuous round of entertaining In connection with the seventh quinquennial con vention of the International Coun cil of Women, which opens here oh May 4 td continue until May 14. For most of the foreign embassies and legations will extend courtesies to their nationals among the dele gates, who represent pretty nearly' every country of the globe; and Cabinet officers and other impor tant officials of domestic vintage Jre among those who will entertain or the visitors from overseas. Where will, in addition, be as many parties for the delegates, individu ally and in small groups, with resi dent society women as hostesses, may be crowded into the bhsy days—and evenings—of the confer ence. The President and Mrs. Coolidge Will be hosts to the entire confer ence delegation on Wednesday afternoon. May 6, and those of us "Who know how heavenly the White House gardens are at this season of (he year are hoping that Mrs. Cool dge may decide upon an al fresco fete rather than upon a conven tional indoor reception.

Mrs. Kellogg Hostess to English Speaking Group of Delegates. Mrs. Kellogg, wife of the Secre tary of State, will entertain on Fri day, May 8, for the delegates from the English speaking nations, in cluding the Marchioness of Aber deen and Temair, president of the International Council of Women. It will be a “dove” dinner and’ Mrs. Kellogg is inviting a few women prominent in club life in this coun try to meet her foreign guests. On Friday evening, by the way, there will be whole grist of dinner parties lor the various delegations, many of the embassies and lega tions being en fete; for that is the one evening next week for which no night session of the congress is scheduled.

May 7, and Mrs. Hoover, wife of the Secretary of Commerce, is also down for some sort of an afternoon party. Indeed, I rather imagine that all the Cabinet wives will en tertain on one occasion or another, the distinguished foreign visitors being divided among them as guests in order that each may have ex perience of the »iospitality of a representative American home. The Marchioness of Aberdeen and j Temair Will, of course, be the storm i center of much of the entertaining, as will Mrs. Philip North Moore, president of the National Council ©f Women of the United States, :he hostess group for the great con vocation.

Borden Harriman, but are put ting up at the Washington HxiH, where Mrs. Moore also has head quarters. Mma. Wallenberg Hopes to Entertain Scandanavians. I’m told that Mme. Wallenberg, Vtfe of the minister of Sweden, Grants to have a reception, if the time can be found, for all the dele gates from Scandanavian countries, and, of course there will be smaller parties at the- legations of Norway And Denmark. The French am has sa id or and Mme. Daeschner will en tertain for their nationals, who in clude such distinguished women as Mme. Avril de Sainte-Croix, Mme. Marie Verone, Mme. Plchon-Landry, head of the French Council of Women; Mme. Dreyfus-Barney—a daughter of our own Mrs. Alice Barney, but long a resident of Paris—Mme. Heyman-Reynach and Mme. LeGrand Tasco.

She will go to Norfolk on Wednesday to visit relatives, returning to Wash ington in time for the conference. Lady Darwin's husband belongs to the same family as the great pro ponent of the doctrine of evolution. Mrs. John B.

Potter, who left today for their new home in Charleston, W. Va., where Mr. Potter has received a very flattering offer as organist and “minister of music” of the large new Baptist Temple there. It is losing "Louis and Ruby” Pot ter to all of us who are closely associated with music here. And Mrs. Potter is to be the soprano soloist of the church. A very touching incident, that shows what marvels we are in the midst of, for fellowship through music, gave Louis Potter his first introduction to his new charge. When he played a radioed organ recital, from the Skinner Organ Studio in New York recently, the hour was set just at the close of a church service. This new church home was so eager to know its new organist that they "tuned in,” having a loud speaker in the church Itself, and there the entire congregation sat throughout the recital, so far away. They are also sending a delegation to Huntington to meet the newcomers part way and to escort them into Charleston. He plays his first service there on May 3. "Why did Washington let them go?” is what we are hearing on every side. The answer might be: Undoubtedly for larger things! We remember Ruby Potter, with her musical sweet, fresh voice, sing ing the star role in the dainty opera, "Secret of Susanne,” with the Washington Opera Company, during its first days. It was as the Friday Morning Music Club, In March, that they gave a "farewell” recital, when Louis Potter also sang duets with his wife in a lovely light baritone voice. How we re member the charm of their Mozart! Organ recitals and piano recitals at the lovely home of William 8. Corby are stored away, to be re peated many times we hope; We think of Louis Potter as essentially sympathetic to Chopin and to Brahms, though he eatchds much of the elusive quality of the moderns. They will be rich addi tions to any community in which they make their home, they and the two lovely little children who are following In the music paths. There will always be a welcome home here to these two artists who are a pride to our city. A NEW “ALICE” BY 20TH CENTURY CLUB MEMBERS "Alice in Blunderland” Is to be the keen second annual play of the Twentieth Century Club, to be presented by the members at the National Theater on the evening of May 13. They call it a "Modern Morality Play” In seven episodes, and these episodes are from the pens of the members, also, though there is a strict watch kept to con ceal which satirical sketch each of the seven wrote. Song and satire* will "prevail. No one is spared, they say, from the world of high politics or from the social sphere.

This is “woman’s week” in music in Washington, with the many festivities that attend the presence here of nineteen of the leading women composers of the nation. We welcome them heartily! Another big item of interest, in making the National Capital a great potential music center, is the fact that ground has been broken for the erection of the Coolidge Festival Concert Hall, in one of the courts of the Library of Congress—a gift to the nation by Mrs. Frederick S. Coolidge, who will extend the influence of “chamber music” beyond her home in the Berkshire Hills, giving—we hope— annual presentations of chamber music in this hall that will become, through her bounty, an adjunct of the great music division of the Library of Congress. Next week Is National Music** Week throughout the land. Washington has in prospect the spring festival program, treating music as a series of historical cos tumed events, that will be a part of the conference here of the Na tional Council of Women, which lasts from May 4 to 14. The fes tival will be on Tuesday, May 5. Then there comes the opera pageant, as a part of the same conference, on May 9. The Rubinstein Club gives its spring concert on Tuesday, May 12, at which time the awards will be made for a prize composition of a madrigal for women voices. The Washington Opera Company, Edouard Albion, director, has an nounced "Traviata,” Verdi's grand opera founded on Dumas* drama, “Camille,” for the evening of Wednesday, May 13, at the Wash ington Auditorium. They will again present an all-Metropolitan Opera House star cast, with Thalia Sabanieva, Ralph Errolle, Ivantzoff, Ananian and others. The spring music festival for the University of Maryland will be of speciat interest to Washington this year, as Paul Bleyden is to sing the tenor role in the oratorio chosen for .this annual event Edith Helena, soprano, who was here recently, will give a song re cital there during this festival. And just over the border, in Philadelphia, there is to be a fine snrlng festival on .Tune 3. Discussions run high as to the ultimate effect of radio on con certs. So many spring events in Washington are unparalleled in our history. It seems almost safe to wearer that radio is creating new audiences, new groups of music lovers. It is easily within the present range of possibility that the audi ences of yesterday are .now the stay-at-homes, who revel in their “rocking-chair” concerta It will be almost a ce>-talnty, within a short time, that the younger generatlcn will want “first hand” information about this music they are learning to knoW In their hands and hearts is the future of music in America. OPERA PAGEANT UNDER MARIE MOORE FORREST “War and Peace” an opera pageant written by Albion Fellows Bacon, is to be one of the leading features of the quinquennial of the International Council of Women which meets here early in May. The pageant will be given on Sat urday evening. May 9, in the Washington Auditorium under the direction of Marie Moore Forrest, who is being assisted in the pro duction of this unusual pageant by a number of musicians now living In this city, some of whom are equally well-known abroad. Estelle Wentworth who spent a number of years studying and singing in grand opera in leading European cities, is director of opera music in the pageant, and is training the soloists and chorus, all of whom are Washington singers and promi nent in musical life here. T. Guy Lucas, organist and choirmaster at St. John's Church, Lafayette square, who is to be the organist for “War and Peace” has been in the city only a com paratively short time, having been bom and educated in England, where he has had much experience as a director of church music. One of the loveliest features of the production is to be the many symbolic and dramatic dances which tell the story of “War and Peace.” Caroline McKinley, known here as creator and director of un usual and beautiful dance dramas, is directing this part of the pageant. Miss McKinley has also studied abroad, having spent a whole summer recently in France and in Italy, taking a special course in dance drama with Ray- mond Duncan in Paris. WARREN TERRY, TENOR, IN HARRIET WARE’S “UNDINE” Warren L. Terry, talented tenor of Washington, will sing the part i of Prince Hildebrand, in Harriet Ware’s cantata, "Undine” for j women’s voices at Continental Hall, April 30. Mr. Terry’ will also be heard in a recital of Mary Turner Salter’s songs, April 29. MRS.

The McCauley-Walsh Orchestra will play, with violin solos by Cap tain Walsh. Miss Calvert is a ver satile little artist, a pupil of Estelle Wentworth, whom Mr. McCauley has introduced professionally. She and Mr. McCauley gave an entire program for the Southern concert of the Georgia State Club recep tion recently when the Knabe Am pico was used in some startling de vices to astonish the audience. They are both too well known to need description, for they are popu lar stars with all radio fans.

8 YESTERDAY ACROSS THE STAGE AND SCREEN KEITH’S— Ned Way burn Revue Have yu pains in the back •f your neck? Are you unable to see distinctly for more than ten miles on a clear day? Are you despondnet, worried about household matters, rheumatic, lam gouty, inclined to dys pepsia? Then you should take a large dose of Keith's without delay. We say “without delay” ad visedly, because (without throw ing any bricks at Mr. Bobbin’s other fifty-one weeks) you prob ably won’t see as good a show as this week’s in a long, long time. The audience last night Iras surfeited with good dancing and then allowed to laugh itself sick at Frank Fay and two ynpro grammed tramps who act with him. -t. The headliner, of dourse, with out further delay, must be men tioned. we shall hurry aong. The headiner, then, is Ned Wayburn’s “Demi Tasse Revue. 5 It is consideraby better, in the consideration of good taste, girls, tinging and scenery than his last effort. It is a worthy show, fast, pretty and entertaining. Then we havtf Irma Nielson, dancer, with a pair, of remarkable eccentric male dancers and a good jazz orchestra in full dress suits. Another snappy number. And thus we reach Mr. Fay. It is a long time since we have seen Mr. Fay, but we have an idea that he is much better than he was before. And with-the two young pseudo-morons who assist him, his act is a riot, veritable and anything else you want to call it. "You’ll never see anything fun aier. Marie* Walsh and Frank Ellis talk a good bit, to good effect, and do some dancing, but the hit ©f the act is Mr. Ellis’ quaint recitative song, “Ours Is a Nice House. Ours Is.” He rhymes this line deftly with’ “The roof leaks when the showers is,” which ought to give you some idea. Fred-Galetti and lola Kokin dance and show off some well trained monkeys, the lady being very pretty Tend the monkeys very funny. Ryan and Ryan dance on shoes and Mr. Ryan would do well to get better com edy lines or do without. Larimer and Hudson offer a clever bicycle act; the gentleman member of the cast is a second edition of Joe Jackson —not an imitator, except in costume and approach. The Weldanos close with an aerial act. The Topics, Fable, and news reel usually are mentioned at the •nd of this review—why be rad ical about it and leave them out? J. R. PRESIDENT— “White Cargo” Last night saw “White Cargo” entering its third week at the President Theater and the re duction 'in prices for the new week, from |2.50 to $1.50 seems to have given the piece a stronger grip than ever on Washington audiences. “White Cargo” is a strong dra matic tale of the influence of the sun and of native women on white men in the tropics. It has a thundering .appeal and is admir ably enacted by a cast headed by Helen Stransky, Cornelius Roddy, Marshal Vincent and Bernard Thornton. The latter, by the way, was a favorite juvenile pith Waah ington audiences wheh he ap peared here in Izetta Jewel’s stock productions. STRAND— Argentine Troupe De Carlos and Granada, assisted by their own Argeniine orchestra in “Character Dances and Melo dies” head the Strand lineup this Week. Grace and rhythm in movement and the soft, alluring music of four guitars and a violin combine to give a most delightful offering. costumes and stage settings add the finishing touch. Billy Goelet and Vera Hall win second honors in “Song, Dances and Music.” and would probably be headlined on a bill less strong. Goelet plays the piano, banjo and Clarinet, getting encores galore •nd Miss Hall pleases with her elog dancing. Arthur Thornton and Sam Carl ton in “Not Now.” a blend of good singing and comedy, and James Kennedy and company in “The Squire.” a delightful little matri monial sketch, divide the comedy honors. Charles Russell and Walter Hayes open with a balancing and tumbling act of genuine merit. “The Last Hour.” the main photoplay feature, is one of the beat Trio Productions to date. Milton Sills and Carmel My?rs play the leading roles, with Pat O’Malley, Jack. Mower, Alev 8.. Francis. Charles Clary and Walter Ix>ng in the supporting cast. Comedy and news subjects and Arthur Manvell's orchestra add the finishing touches. EARLE— Tabloid Opera There is at the Earls this week company of players billed as the De Feo Grand Opera Com pany, who present -a condensed version of the opera “Carmen” in a manner most pleasing to hear and behold. The estire cast is entitled to the utmost praise for the way in which this gem of Bizet’s is portrayed. Elaborate costunring, effective scenery and exceedingly fine rendition of the •core combine to make this act headliner on any theater's pro gram. The rest of the bill is enter taining in-spots. Jack Fulton and Dorothy Quinette have a nice little skit entitled “A Girl of Today,” in which the former does some clever work. His comedy singing •nd the dancing of the voung »dy put the act in second place. "The New Stenographer,” play ed by Thomas B. Jackson and Jean Russell, is a playlet with a curious twist t at the end that Saves it from being rather flat. Adelyn Jason and Helen Har rigan In an "Interlude of Harm •ny” do a bit of work together that Is quite pleasing. Their •©lces blend well although neither •ne Is effective as a soloist. Har- Im Greene, and Katherine Parhsr sing a little. Joks IHtle and Huff lot. However, per sonality wins and taken all In all they’re entertaining. The Romas Troupe give an acrobatic revue that Is Interspersed with comedy. The movie is "The Night Club," with Raymond Griffith. It is-quite up to the standard set by' him in all his Paramount work. The rest of the bill is filled out as usual. The comedy, organ solo, et cetera. —J. S. PALACE— “Proud Flesh” If it- is getting to be fashion able to take a whack at Holly wood made films and salaam be fore the offerings of the Berlin and Vienna studios, we fear that we are frightfully behind the times. Now here is a film at the Palace this week with apparent ly all the earmarks of a hack piece of work. The very title *-*’,|?roud Flesh” will make the Irttelligentsia turn away with a 'fjhpdder. And yet we enjoyed it immensely and could even see it again. No hope for us, we Sub-titles we are told have be come passe. This film is loaded with them. Breezy, joyful chat ter throughout. The very first one reads. “The story opens for no reason whatever in San Fran cisco, at the time of the earth quake.” The picture is really delight ful. It takes a gentle poke at many American fillums that have gone before, without going over the line into outright burlesque. Just imagine a Spanish dandy hair slicked back, surrounded by retainers trying to win the hand of an American heiress, having as his rival an uncouth but self reliant plumber. Imagine the possibilities. The Spaniard act ually makes our American hero look like and act like a sap. The plumber of course wins the girl but the Don has the last laugh. The final scene shows him riding away in his limousine .consulting the nameof a little telephone girl “down at the St. Charles.” Eleanor Boardman is the girl who lives in a house on the hill with eighty-seven bathtubs. The Spanish Cavalier is _ the dashing Harrison Ford. And he never has had a better role. Pat O’Malley does exceptionally well as the plumber. A travelogue of “Aloha Oe” and a Mack Sennett comedy featuring some playful lions com plete the bill, one of the most satisfactory we have ever seen at the Palace.— L>. I. P. METROPOLITAN— Richard Barthelmess The Metropolitan Theater offers this week the perfect triangle— Richard Barthel mess, supported -by his wife Mary Hay and di rected by James Robertson, with the result, a very clever domestic comedy-drama called “New Toys.” To some who have detected in Mr. Barthelmess the finest dra matic jUvenile of the screen, the star and the picture will be a grave disappointment; to others, this new characterization is an unrealjzed talent for real comedy brought to light. Surely, it can not be denied that "New Toys” is another achievement for Dick and Mary, for. certainly, little pug-nosed Mary Hay must not be overlooked. There are times' when she fairly-walks away with the piece, and Friend Husband should vote her a cordial thanks for her excellent support. Like wise Katherine Wilson and the rest of a clever cast. In less capable hands, this little glimpse into the comic, yet tragic, home-troubles of the Webb family could not be the photoplay that it is. There is something pathetic about the young wife-mother who heeds too clearly the call of the footlights and proves a humiliat ing failure. And there is much of romance in the way the “old girl” sticks to the husband-father through hie troubles. Yet comedy predominates, the story is light and another movie family safely outrides the first year. As an overture the Metropoli tan Orchestra plays pleasingly “The Fortune Teller” by Herbert. Pathe News reel supplements the feature picture, and then the fun begins. Hal Roach presents "Our Gang,” and they are at it again. To see them, goat, Farina, et al, taking possession of a very ritzy hotql is something not to be missed. It is fun of the unadul terated kind, and everyone who was a regular kid (or still is) can’t help but laugh as he rem inisces. We know “Our Gang” works hard, but we need more pictures, comedies, of this brand. E. L. P. COLUMBIA— Gloria Swanson Gloria Swanson yesterday open ed the second week of her en gagement at Loew’s Columbia in “Madame Sans Gene,” the ro mance by Sardou of the little laundress who became a duchess and set the court of the First Empire in a turmoil. The film was made with the co-operation of the French Ministry of Fine Arts in the actual scenes through which Napoleon moved in the days of his grandeur. Miss Swanson plays the title role of Catherine Hubscher, who washed clothes for Napoleon on credit when “The Little Corporal” was too poor to pay her, and who later, when Napoleon had come to power and Catherine had miraculously risen to the rank of duchess, displayed these same unpaid laundry bills to the Emperor byway of silencing his threat to force her divorce from the former sergeant of Napoleon’s army she had married.

HIS SHOW’S GREAT, BUT ED. WYNN’S GREATER By HAROLD PHILLIPS. Among the pleasanter lunacies of Ed Wynn’s‘latest-farrago of fun, “The Grab Bag,” must be included the scientific exhibit, con ceived and personally paraded by the comedian himself. The man who really cares will not think of eating soft-boiled eggs without first adjusting Wynn’s metal chin basin which pro tects the cravat and weskit. The hazards of pneumonia will be greatly minimized if Wynn’s ingenious rubber suit which keeps the body perfectly dry while bathing, is donned. Fewer eyes will be gouged out if the hinged-spoon is used in the cup when drink ing coffee. And for the more zestful eaters (there are few of them left, manners becoming what they are) there are the metal finger-tips for dipping your bread into the gravy. These and others form only a tithe of the inventive buffooneries of the world’s drollest clown who is at the National Theater this week in one of the most entertaining shows that has hit town this season. “The Grab Bag” is vaudeville you don’t see in vaudeville houses. Most of its people are recruited from the two-a-day but you never see quite so much talent on one bill. And of course the ridiculata that is Wynn’s own—and nobody else’s —you iiever see in vaude ville at alt s There isn’t quite anybody on the stage who can sublimate utter ridiculousness into howl ing comedy, so well as Ed Wynn can. Though he opens the show and closes it and seems to be constantly hover ing all over the stage between curtains, there isn’t any time that you don’t regret his exits and hail his returns. Withal his constant presence, there is a vertible harvest of talent that offers entertainment as novel as a basement bargain-counter. There aije, for instance, the Volga boys; a double quartet with beautiful blended voices who sing Russian songs. There is Janet Adair, with the cozy voice and personality that sub merges the antiquity of some of her songs. There are the three Ormond sisters, Scotch singers and dancers who helped hold up the show; Earl and Bell, singers and instrumentalists; Ralph Riggs and Katherine Witchie, dancers; Shaw and Lee, sappy comedians; the mar vellous Le Grohs whose con tortions are uncanny; the Pow der Puff Girls; Jay and Janet Velie, singers; the other half of the Fairbank Twin team, Marian Fairbanks and Aileen Hamilton and other principals and a snappily attired and dancing chorus. Wynn is at his funniest in the livery stable scene and at the Scotch county fair though his seemingly constant moments be fore the curtain are periods brimful of laughter. The revue moves with re markable speed and when you feel it’s about 10 o’clock yotl discover it’s 11:15. Along about RIALTO Continuous 11 A. M. to 11 P. M. De Luxe Shows—3, 7, 9.

SINKING OF JAP VESSEL SHOWN ON SCREEN Motion pictures will tell whether •r not Captain Roberts of the •teamship Homeric did all that was possible to save the crew of the sinking Japanese steamer Raifuku Maru the other day. Overcoming what appeared like tmsurmountable obstacles, motion pictures of the doomed craft were obtained exclusively by Interna tional Newsreel and are being shown now at the Rialto Theater. All doubt whether the sailors of the freighter were still alive when the ship went down are removed by this unexpected and marvelous record of the last moments of the ■inking vessel. The picture was “shot by J. M. Beatty, of the Federal Glass Company, Columbus,' Ohio. Beatty, an amateur photographer of abil ity, was aboard the Homeric. He had a motion picture camera, and started it’ in motion as soon as the Homeric came close to the Japanese ship. Captain Roberts has described how his ship was rocked by the storm, yet Beatty clung to a rail and managed to take pictures, which promise to form an impor tant part of the record of this sea disaster. THOSE TREMORS ARE GILDA’S OWN Out in Los Angeles, where beau tiful girls are as plentiful as ripe oranges, and nothing short of an earthquake or murder will cause a ripple of excitement, *tis ■aid that Broadway’s particularly agile dancing favorite, Gilda Gray, is making them sit up and take notice. When she arrived in the movie -city on the first of April, ■he was greeted by no less than five bands, a committee of wel come composed of eighteen movie ■tars and an escort of sixteen automobiles. Gilda and her bevy of dancing girls were scheduled to appear in person at the Metropolitan Theater, one of the largest mo tion picture theaters on the Pa cific coast, which in itself, was gist cause for some agitation. oly week, usually the worst week of*the year for theater own ers, but despite this handicap, Gilda attracted more than $50,- 000 to the Metropolitan’s box office, netting her a salary of $14,000, probably the largest sum •ver paid a stage star for a week’s engagement. This fact, coupled with Gilda’s native charm and photographic possibilities, has caused a num ber of the big movie magnates to make her flattering offers as a motion picture star. So flattering indeed, that Gilda has been won over, and will sign one of the nice, fat contracts tendered her, before leaving the coast to com plete her dancing engagements. A CHATTERTON COMEDY FROM THE FRENCH The week of May 4, at the Belasco Theater, will usher in a Bew French comedy with Ruth Chatterton as the star and a sup porting cast which includes Ralph Forbes, Auriol Lee, Frederick Perry, Robert Rendel, Ernest Stallard and William Leith. The name of the piece is “Women and Ladies.’* It is an adaptation from Louis Verneuil’s original French version and has been made by Cosmo Hamilton, of "Scandal,” "Nice People,” and numerous other successes. “Women and Ladies” has a distinctly Continental flavor. The play is in three acts and the action takes place at the villa of the Due de Clichy in Nice. The story is about a romantic young nobleman who idles away his time at his villa with his beautiful mistress, the famous Cleo Piom bino. The central figure is a little peasant girl named Michelle, who is employed to care for the flowers in the due’s gardens. The due has never paid any attention to Michelle, but she is enamored of him and is also quite thrilled by his adventures with the beauti ful courtesans who visit his villa.

MORE AMUSEMENTS (Continued from Page 8.) the story of how this same laundress, after the revolution, Joined the army as a vivandiere to aid her husband, Sergeant Le- Febvre. When Napoleon makes LeFebvre a marshal of France, she becomes, as LeFebvre’s wife, the Duchess of Dantzig, who flouts Napoleon’s own sisters at court, drew down the Emperor’s wrath and her own unpaid laun dry bills and eventually smoothed -over a small peccadillo between the Empress Louise and a young nobleman that had badly upset the Emperor’s peace of mind. This is the vivid, ever-changing dramatic panorama that Miss Swanson spreads before her ad mirers in “Madame Sans Gene,” which will long be regarded, it is likely, as the best story she has ever brought to the screen. RIALTO— “Sth Avenue Models’* Through six reels yesterday at the Rialto Theater, the poor working girl fought valiantly and successfully for her honor. In the seventh reel the rich young man finally made a complete capitulation and married her, thus showing that honor and vir tue always triumph—in the mov ies as everywhere else, save in real life. Some of the best, and some of the worst, writers have used 'vari ations of the plot which forms the basis of the picture, "Fifth Avenue Models.” Here it is given a Greenwich Village and art background. Mary Philbin, charm ing and capable as ever, is the beautiful little shop girl that two men pursued. One was a- mar ried man, too, and goodness knows, when these married men start out—— Norman Kerry is the rich young man who finally .decided well, he’d marry the girl. Wil liam Conklin is the suave and polished married viHain, a very clever gentleman. Joseph Swick ard is the painter, the father of the girl, struggling for recogni tion of his work, which, we are assured, was good. Lieutenant Felix Ferdinando and his Havana orchestra return to this city to delight the lovers of jazz. They played some new selections yesterday and some that they had played on their former visit here, especially a burlesque on "H. M. S. Pinafore.” Micha Guterson presents as an overture the most famous arias from Carmen. This includes a vocal interlude sung by Marga retta Campbell. The overture was the most enjoyable spot on ths program to this reviewer. International News Reel showed startling views of the sinking of the Japanese freighter and de struction of the entire crew. These shots were taken by a pas senger on board the Homeric. An Out-of-the-Inkwell comedy completes a very excellent pro gram.—J. W. B. TlVOLl— “Pampered Youth”, "Pampered Youth,” adapted from Booth Tarkington’s novel. "The Magnificent Ambersons.’ Is the major feature at Cran dall’s Tivoli, the last times today, with the companion offering. “A Raspberry Romance,” in which Ben Turpin again gets his eyes all tangled up. A new Pathe Review and excellent pipe organ embellishment by Otto F. Beck, concert organist, and Harold T. Pease, assistant, complete a pro gram of unusual worth. "Pampered Youth” is enacted by Cullen Landis, Ben Alexander, Allan Forrest, Alice Calhoun, "Wallace McDonald, Charlotte Mer riam. Aggie Herring and others of note. The story is a logical, homely tale of modern American life so true a« to have won its author •he Puli'zer prize the year it was published. The bill is addi tionally augmented by abbreviated camera subjects. Tomorrow’s at tractions will be “Enticement,” THE WASHINGTON TIMES with Mary Astor, lan Keith and Clive Brook and Lloyd Hamilton in "Half a Hero.” “The Beloved Brute” Marguerite de la Motte, William Russell, Mary Alden and Stuart Holmes are foremost members of the cast in “The Beloved Bi;ute,” a Vltagraph special production at Crandall’s Central the last times today. The story is of two brothers, chastened by their father from his deathbed, one a stalwart advocate of right living, the other a renegade of ominous type. Lloyd Hamilton in "Half a Hero,” has the comedy. He is cast first as an unwilling police man and later as referee at an amateur boxing show. Abbrevi ated camera subjects and pipe organ music complete the bill.

Many other stations now on 800 watt power have indicated to Chief Radio Inspector Terrell that they will apply for -permission to use 1,000 watts or over. Secretary of Commerce Hoover has adopted the policy of granting power increases to class B» stations without question, provided they meet the various requirements of their class. So far no authority has been granted to Increase the class A stations above 600 watts. With the class B capacity of the ether exhausted, however, it is pos sible that the class A's will be per mitted to go as high as 1,000 watts.

LH WOMEN TO IONOHE OUSTER Suspended Auxiliary Units Claim Order Is Illegal The three women auxiliary units of the American Legion, which have been “suspended” from the District department for “defiance and Insubordination,” will continue to function in the same manner as heretofore. This, in effect, was the answer today of the auxiliaries of Tank Corps, Kenneth Nash and Stuart Walcott units to the ouster order of departmental officers. According to officials of the suspended units, the suspension and revocation of charters of the auxiliary units is illegal. The con stitution of the organization, it is said, makes mention of only one excuse for revoking a charter failure to report from one annual meeting to another. Consequently, officials of the auxiliaries declare, they will ignore the ouster order and continue to “do business at the same old stand.” Cause of Difference. The dismissed units, backed by the legion posts with which they are connected, have stoutly in dorsed the Service Club, at Third and C streets northwest, after sup port was withdrawn by depart mental officers. So bitter has the inter-organiza tion squabble become, it was point ed out, that the department officers, headed by Mrs. Leon Arnold, dis trict president, have asked the Dis trict Supreme Court to issue an injunction demanding Mrs. Frank L. Peckham, Service Club treas urer and president of Tank Corps Auxiliary, turn over certain funds and equipment said to have been subscribed by Legion members. Another Angle. Accprding to Mrs. Arnold, the suspension of the three units had nothing to do with the Service Club fight. They were suspended for “defiance and Insubordination," as well as being "discourteous,” she said.

Martin and First Lieutenants Leigh Wade and Leslie P. Arnold, ’round-the-world flyers, by Acting Secretary of War Dwight F. Davis today in the presence of comrades from the army, navy and officials from the State, Treasury, Com merce and Postoffice Departments. All eight round-the-world flyers were awarded the distinguished service cross, but only three were near enough Washington to be presented today. Others will be presented with their medals at their present station. Acting Secretary Davis praised the flyers for an epic achievement and pointed out that although Co lumbus, Drake, Lewis and Clark, and others performed exploits that will be praised forever their feats were not so wildly and enthusiasti cally acclaimed at the time as was the world flight. The medals, Davis said, were the first ever given for distinguished service in peace time, and were a signal honor from 110,000,000 Amer icans to men who were given an alloted task and did it with skill, fortitude and courage. Major Martin is now stationed at Langley Field, Virginia, and Lieu tenants Wade and Arnold are sta tioned at Bolling Field, near Wash ington. ST.

COURT Hammered Brass Replicas Decorate Umbrella Stands in Appeals Chamber If M. Techicherin, of the Soviet government at Moscow, or even the redoubtable Trotsky, have an idea that the Imperial eagle of the Czarist regime, with its two heads, one of .them looking to the East, the other to the West, has fallen into disrepute and is no longer on display in public buildings m th's country, they are mistaken. The fact is, this artistically at tractive symbol of the Czars of all the Russias, side by side almost, screams with the uncrowned and bald-headed American eagle in the United States Court of Appeals building in Judiciary Square, where this imperial bird holds forth in the presence of the chief justice and associate justice® of this solemn tribunal, and where lawyers con gregate daily to argue the blessings of the Constitution and American liberty as compared, for instance, with the tyranny of autocracies and so forth. The rostrum upon which are seated the justices, called the "bench” is surmounted by a gilt American eagle, whose wings, for some inexplalnable reason, look as if they had been clipped. Ths symbol of American freedom oc cupies the place of honor, as h« should. His Imperial Russian coun terpart, of hammered brass, spreads his wings, his double crown, hit ball and scepter, and other ac coutrements of autocratic Russia on capacious umbrella stands ol hammered brass and ,n Russia. This Russian bird is at tached on the outside of these stands. There are also a number of these Russian brass specimens in the clerk’s office of the court. The Soviets will please take notice that their hammer and sickle have not yet dethroned the Russian bird of the old regime.

CONDITION EXISTS IN ALL BIG CITIES Builders* Secretary Denies, However, National Plot Against Labor Rufus S. Lusk, secretary of the Operative Builders' Association and of the fair wage committee, having for its purpose the keep ing of building trades wage? at their present level, today substan tiated the recent statement of William J. Gallagher, labor leader, that commercial interests all over the country are interested in keeping wages down. Mr. Lusk would not agree with Mr. Gallagher that a nation-wide conspiracy of capitalists was re sponsible for this movement. He stated it as his belief that em ployers in various cities were act ing independently, according to local conditions. Situation Same Elsewhere. “I know that in several principal cities of the country,” said Mr. Lusk,” labpr questions are being handled fai practically the same way that Washington business «nen are treating their own wage mas ters. “The situation is being handled successfully by such methods as are in force here, in Louisville. {Boston, St. Louis, Cleveland and i other large labor centers.” According to Mr. Lusk, the Asso ciated Building Interests,. an organ ization of builders, contractors and subcontractors has neen an impor tant factor in the St. Louis strike trouble. i A similar association exists in Washington, but is new and needs 1 further and more intensive organ ization before it can get a grip on the situation such as the St. Louis body exercised, said Mr. Lusk. Interests Identical. I In New York, Cleveland and Bos i ton the Building Trades Employers I Association practically Identical in interest and aim as the St. Louis i combination has been active in urg i ing that wages be not increased in i the building trades at this time, i Mr. Lusk stated. Mr. Gallagher, who is the inter national organizer for the painters’ union, declared last week, after re turning from a tour of nearby cities that there was every reason to believe that a national ring of financiers and business men was at work to defeat union labor. Mr. Link stated he did not be lieve that such an outfit existed, and said certainly that the Wash ington organizations of .which he is a member were taking no part in anv national campaign of the kind.
