Convulsive sobs shook her as her lawyer, Marks Wolff, entered a formal plea of not guilty for her. The courtroom was crowded with theatrical folk and Broadway habitues. The pretty show girl, known un der her stage name of 'Edith J*aik- i er,” will be held until the extent j of Davis’ injuries are ascertained.; He has a bullet in his face and another In his body. While, the police have been un-1 able to extract from th’ wife any; reason for her dramatic shooting of' her husband at a "stag" dinner party, they are proceeding upon the theory that “another woman” was at the bottom of the affair. When Mrs. Davis heard her hear ing was to be put off until Fridav.i pending the outcome of her hus band’s condition, she stanrtped her foot and demanded of he* lawyer: “Why can’t this case he disposed of immediately?” Asked whether she would tell what woman, if any. was the cause of the shooting, she replied: “I certainly will not sell a thing until I hear how his (her husband's) feelings are towards me.” Examination of the revolver In; court showed there were two bullets jammed in the barrel.

The shooting occurred last night, in a bedroom of the apartment of Henry Gribble, an actor, in the heart, of the bright light district. Gribble, and Davis were about to have dinner together. Mrs. Davis suddenly appeared and said, quiet ly: "I want to see my husband alone.” There was an exchange of sharp words —the firing of two revolver shots. The promising young Broad way actor was shot twice. Mrs. Davis fled and was caught by two policemen. At the hospital, where he was taken, Davis told detectives not to illow his wife to see him if she is released after arraignment today. “I never want to see her again,” he said. Mrs. Davis will be held pending the outcome of her husband's in juries. An operation will be neces sary, physicians said. Mrs. Davis refused at first to reveal the cause of the shooting, but later stated It "was all over another woman.” Well Known In D. C. Both Allen Dayis and Mrs. Davi« are well known in Washington.

The community chuckled today over an Invitation extended Will iam Jennings Bryan by George W. Rapplyea, who Initiated the evolution trial, to attend a Day ton Sunday school next Sunday. Rapplyea asked Bryan to visit the Methodist church. “I don’t know,” replied Bryan. “My father was a Baptist, my brother a Methodist, while I’m a Presbyterian. I don’t know which church I’ll attend." “That’s all right.” retorted Rapplyea, "my father was a Bap tist, my mother a Catohlic and I m a Methodist. Come with me." John T.

Begdley, *T believed courtesy due the Aboard of directors of the chamber to advise some of its members that the action of the Commissioners wjm taken ad visedly and after due considera tion,’* he said. “There was no thought in my mind of influencing the action of the board.** Chamber Demands Action. In a resolution passed, the Chamber last night demanded that the Commissioners reinstate Cap tain Headley as Inspector in charge of the Traffic Bureau and give him a hearing to substantiate any charges against him. Commislsoner Penning made it known that he did not believe that some members of the board appre ciated the courtesy which he showed yesterday by conferring with four of the directors on the Headley case. “I am constrained to believe,” he said, "that after mature considera tion, the board members will ap preciate the spirit in which I made certain statements to several direc tors.” Commissioner Penning also stated he made no attempt to communicate with Charles W. Darr, chairman of the police and fire committee of the chamber, whb last night led the fight for the adoption of the Head ley resolution. “I did not discuss the case with Mr. Darr because he has never communicated with me on the sub ject,” Commissioner Penning said. The Commissioner reiterated his statement that the Headley case was a closed incident. “However, If I personally receive any communications on the mat ter, I will refer them to the board,” he said. “I know that the board will give any communications re ceived by me and it due consid eration. z The Commissioner would not comment on the action of the chamber last night, nor would he verify the statement of several directors that he told them M. O. Eldridge, Director of Traffic, had stated that either he (Eldridge) or Headley must go. y Resolution Demands Action. The session at the Chamber of Commerce resulted in the adoption of a resolution demanding of the Commissioners that Headley be given back his inspector’s- job and that he keep the higher rank until the charges which caused his de motion are substantiated. One surprise followed another et the chamber meeting. It was revealed that Commis sioner Penning had talked with four members of the board of di rectors on the Headley case. Two of the directors were summoned to Commissioner Fenning’s office, one he visited, and the fourth just "happened in.” They were Martin A. Leese, Colonel W. V. Shipley, John H. Hanna and G. Manson Foote. Mr. Foote told the board that Commissioner Fenning revealed to him the reason for Captain Head ley’s demotion. Mr. Foote said: Reason for Demotion. "Shortly after 1 o’clock I was called to the District Building by Commissioner Fenning. It was the first time I was. aware the Com missioner knew of me.

He said he would give Headley orders but that Headley would npt carry them out. He also ■aid that either Headley would have to go or he would go.' “Headley was a square peg in a round hole. Commissioner Penning said/ He said that he called Act ing Superintendent Evans and asked him if he knew of anybody foe Headley’s job. Evans suggested Captain Brown. The other Com missioners, he said, approved of substituting Brown for Headley and so did Major Sullivan. In fact Sullivan wrote a letter concurring in the action df the others.** Darr Attacks Penning. Aftdt Mr. Foote concluded hfs statement. Charles W. Darr, nromi nent attorney, turned to those directors who talked with Commis sioner Penning: “Why couldn't he have called Headley before him as he did you. and you. and you?’* Mr. Darr vigorously upbraided Commissioner Penning for his “mis sionary” work among the directors. Darr then led the fight for the adoption of the resolution which demanded that Headley be put back as inspector tn charge of the Traffic. Bureau. "Ww' don’t 'Object to what Com missioner Penning has done,” he ■aid. “What we object to is the manner in which he did it. “We won’t be treated that way. We want Headley to have his day in court. We want him to have a hearing. The reason given for hla demotion is ‘for the good of the service? That may mean any thing from larceny to murder. Let’s have the facts. The Law of Justice. “Perhaps under the law. Head ley is not entitled to a hearing. But there are other laws. There is a moral law, a law of gratitude, a law of justice, and on the strength of these alone he should bo heard. And the tax-paying citi zens of the District demand that he be heard. Give Headley a chance to face those who make the charges against him; give him a chance to defend himself.” Fanning Is Flayed. Darr bitterly attacked Commis sioner Penning. “The first thing he does is revolutionise the police department. He destroys its morale and breaks up the hopes and ambitions of the policemen in it. Then he gets on a train and leaves the police depart ment a wreck. And he comes back and says he won’t pay attention to the people.” Mr. Darr reviewed Captain Head ley’s record. "Twenty-nine years of faithful work as a police officer; twenty nine years and not once before the trial board; twenty-nine years, and with a record as clean as a hound’s tooth,” Darr declared. “And then, without a hint or a warning, without any explanation as to what he has done to merit It, he is disgraced and humiliated —he is demoted and his retirement bene fits taken away from him.” Albert Schulteis, former president of the Chamber of Commerce, at tacked Commissioner Penning for destroying the morale of the police force. “Throws City Into Chaos." “Here is a man (Penning,”) de clared Mr. Schulteis, “appointed by the President on the advice of politicians, who has just taken office for a few days when he revolu tionizes the police force.

"Britain is not prepared to re nounce extra-territorial privileges in China?* he said.

This constitutional right, he added, does not involve the Bible nor Christianity. Freedom Is Denied. “I feel that any law requiring our school children to worship God according to the St. James or any other version of the Bible is a clear cut violation of the Constitution, Scopes declared. “I hope the fight is made on constitutional grounds and that my trial will not develop into a battle between evolutionists and funda mentalists. At least, it seems to me, to be unnecessary to drag in the fundamentalist-modernist row. The Tennessee law, which he violated. Scopes, declared was an “opening wedge ’for scores of sim ilar laws forcing the educational and rleiglous will of the majorities upon a’.l the people.” “That is repugnant, not only to the 'American Ideals of liberty, but to the very purpose of the patri ots who founded this Republic,” he added. "If this law stands there will be a flood of new laws strik ing out of our schools every theory and every belief that conflicts with the will .of the majority!. And the result will be an un'American sys tem of public education, against which the minorities can get no protection. “In this instance, the law de stroys the basic facts of nearly all the' sciences. Further enroach ments would eliminate the sciences, and leave our public education blighted with universal Ignorance fostered throughout the land." BIG DRO DN IB GUTTAXES' (Continued from Fifkt Page.) aide, Secretary of the Treasury Mellon, believe that larger revenues actually will be derived If the sur tax burden is lessened, and although both favor a general downward re vision, it is with the higher levies they are primarily concerned. Big Drive Launched. To this end, a tremendous cam paign for public enlightenment has been launched, starting here, with a formal statement in behalf of the Executive himself. A new surtax rate, as low as 12 per cent, is in contemplation. The present rate is 40 per cent, so fixed after a terrific fight in the last session of Congress, when the Administration sought unsuccess fully to establish a maximum of 25 per cent. The basic point the President hopes to drive home to the voter is that reduction in the higher brack ets will mean greater prosperity in Industry and therefore better jobs and higher wages for the small tax payer. The Administration argu ment has been outlined as follows: “A man with two children earn ing 35,000 a year now pays the Gov ernment about 335 a year in taxes. That men is far more concerned in continuing to earn >5,000 annually than he' is with the relatively in significant amount of his. personal income tax.” A bitter fight is expected The so-called Mellon Plan, predicated upon the same argument, went down to defeat last year before a coalition of Democrats and Pro gressives in Congress. it is for Just this reason that the educational drive has been gotten under way this -year so early. The President and his advisers feel they lost in 1924 because the public failed to understand their arguments in behalf of lighter taxes on capital. They do not propose to repeat their mistakes this vear.

They are opening the doors for a reign of bigotry and persecution equal to anything in the Middle Agee. No man's belief will be safe if they win. They will not be satisfied with even a belief In Christ and Christianity, but will enforce their own sort of belief in them. “Many Protestants are as bitter gainst Catholicism as against Juda ,sm or evolution or agnosticism. This may result in crusades of one creed against another or all others. Ultimately, the people can do any thing they want to. All that is needed here is a sufficient number of people wrong at the same time and wrong the same way, who are sure they ar® right. “One man’s liberty cannot be pro tected without protecting all men’s liberties.

Nothing exemplifies intolerance more concisely and clearly than the law under which Scopes is to be tried. “We lost’ that spirit of tolerance somewhere about a half generation ago. And it has thrown us back down the scale of evolution, so that we are more like monkeys today than we were in 1905. We have lost the most important frame of mind, the most Important state of spirit in the nistory of mankind, that which made us the outstanding re public an.l most human community of the ages.” “Wiiile /the press has handled this situation with a modicum of frivolity, the stubborn truth seems to have trickled through.

TREASURY FROWNS ON BILLBOARD BATTLE AGAINST DEMON RUM HAYNESIS SHORN OF POWER General Andrews Would Put Control in Hands of Rum Administrators By ROBERT S. THQRNBURGH “Bill board” enforcement of the prohibition act virtually has been disapproved by the Treasury. Officials disclosed today that the Administration frowns on the plan of the prohibition unit to flood the United States with pos ters setting forth evils of alcohol. A number of designs for pos ters, which Prohibition Commis sioner R. A. Haynes thought would assist the Government in its educational campaign to bring about better enforcement of the Volstead act, are on the desk of General L. C. Andrews, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury. White House Agrees. The Treasury is understood to oppose the poster drive. The White House took a similar view, it was learned, after the matter was discussed there with Andrews and Secretary of the Treasury Mellon. Congress appropriated 150,000 for “dissemination of Information and appeals for observance and enforce ment" of the Volstead act. Haynes planned to spend a part of this sum for posters whieh were to be placed in post offices and other Federal buildings. The Treasury may ask Comptrol ler General McCarl for a ruling which will set rout the legal pur poses for which the publicity ap propriation may be used. A keen fight was precipitated in Congress when Haynes asked for the appropriation. Congressman John Phillip Hill (Rep.) of Mary land declared that the Treasury was trying to set up a bill board en forcement of the law. Plans Held Up. At the prohibition unit* it was learned that the poster campaign has been held up until General An drews completes his reorganisation of enforcement methods. The Treasury is somewhat skepti oaI.jMMQ. enforcement of the pro hit *k»ir Mw by educating the pub lic net' tb satisfy HP cravingfoe stimulation with rum. Officials/be lleve that employment of the long and. strong arm of Federal enforce ment agencies will haVe a more wholesome effect. It is expected that future pub licity campaigns will be confined to publi caddresses by Haynes and other officials of the prohibition unit. Treasury officials said that under the Haynes will spend much of his time away from Washington and will have an opportunity to address various or ganizations on the subject of pro hibition. Andrews plans to completely de teeatralize the Federal prohibition system, transferring the responsi bility for enforcement to the pro hibition administrators.

Bell’s Proposal En thusiastically O. K’d By Times Writer 10th Street Proposition]* By DONALD McDOUGAL. Hats off to Engineer Commie* stoner Bell’ He’s Started some thing that won't stop until every foot of Washington’s tax-eating highways is used for the benefit of the taxpayers, as it should be. He shows where forty feet of precious apace is lost on Connecti cut avenue by the present layout, and comes forward with a plan to make use of it. 'That’s business. 'Under his plan twenty feet on each aide of the roadway, now go ing to waste, will be paved and turned over to the taxpayers for parking apace and alow vehicle travel. Connecticut avenue. with a width of 130 feet, has only 60 feet available for street use, and one third ot that is taken up by car tracks. And the trees blossom out with "No Parking" signs, and the traf fic court Is congested with citizens fined a dollar each for parking on the asphalt that their tax money has already paid for several times over, while forty feet of good parking anace is thrown away. Connecticut’ avenue isn’t thh only thoroughfare that can bo made to yield parking space for hundreds ot vehicles, with the use of a little head work. Tenth street, for instance, has a twenty six-foot sidewalk —twice as much as its business requires. That extra thirteen feet would provide parking room for a good many cars, and relieve congestion in .traffic court- Anyone who’ll drive around Washington for an hour or two with his eyes open, can find. dozens of places where good park ing land la left Idle. Then when he goes down to traffic court and sees streams of people. Jike fans at the box of fice, digging up a dollar each for parking an hour or two over time, If he has more than six red-blood corpuscles liA his whole system, he'll boil over, same as the Alibi Man does occasionally. The following paragraph by this writer is from the Washington Times of June 8: "If Washington is willing to Apply the same energy to the parking problem that other cities have applied to the mere moving of traffic, there is room for at least 5,000 ali-day packers and an equal number of two-hour packers in our congested section and its immediate vicinity." Commissioner Bell's discovery of room for two twenty-foot road ways in Connecticut avenue, and the fact that Washington's aver age street yields only a forty-foot roadway tn .a ninety-foot width, comes pretty near proving the truth Os that statement. Then what's the idea of the dollar fine? With new drivers throughout the country being' licensed at the rate of something like two million a year; with ears being turned out of the factories at the rate of 400,000 per month; and with Washington getting her full share of both, it’s easy to see that the parking problem is only blossoming now. We’ve got to let ready to care for the crop. To narrow sidewalks where they’re wider than necessary; to move them back where fifteen and twenty-foot Government owned front lawns are blooming between them and the building line—all this will cost money. But so does our present parking scarcity. Washington business men have lost enough time during the last five years, to say nothing of fines, to pay for this work. Washington has the best park ing possibilities and the poorest parking conditions Os any city in the nation. Looks like Colonel Bell has started something. Battleship Wins Flag The U. 8. S.

Lathrop Urges Scientific Study of Mar riage Problem' By DAVID SENTNER, International Newa Service. NEW YORK, July B.—A “di vorce laboratory” was advocated today Rs a more vital national need than divorce legislation by Dean Charles N. Lathrop, for merly of Milwaukee and San Fran cisco, head of the social service department of the National Coun cil, Episcopal Church. “The divorce question is smash ing up American homes and filling our orphan asylums with the chil dren of divorced parents,” said the Reverend Doctor Lathrop, com menting on the move to bar the marrage of divorced persons in the Episcopal Church, launched by the Sanctity of Marriage Association. Divorce Laws Foolish. “Divorce laws are foolish,” de clared Doctor Lathrop. “All laws on the subject are useless. You can't legislate on a subject we know nothing about. There should be a d'vorce court in each county to handle nothing hut divorce cases. In connection with such a court research work should be undertaken to determine thu causes of this social evil. “We need to study 1,000 typical cases of divdkce and analyze what is behind them. I would like to see some scientific foundation un dertake such a survey, or have Congress appropriate funds for a res* arch department on the divorce question.” Pioneer in Field. Dean Lathrop said that Judge Charles W. Hoffman’s “divorce court” in Cincinnati was a pioneer in the "divorce laboratory” field. The dean declared he did not be lieve a canonical law prohibited di vorcees from remarriage would af fect the situation one way or another, “but it would put the church right.” “I don't believe any Christians get divorces. The law eannot dis solve a marriage, and you can't believe In the New Testament and divorcee, too. The fundamental Idea of marriage Is to protect the chil dren. The type of persons who get a divorce and bring Buffering on 1 their offspring do not attend a church The Sanctity of Marriage Asso ciation intends to present a petition to the general Episcopal convention GreatWNWeather MEAT Supplies unlimited “pep,” because it contains the most energizing of all fl meats minced to promote quick, \»*——AjTWok easy digestion. -V A flavory, savory, healthful sum- mer food, deliciously spiced in order to sharpen summer appetites.

The new chain is composed .of WIP, PhiLidelphia; WGBS, New York; WPtl, Atlantic City, and WMAF, South Dartmouth, Mass. Ar A in the background of this chain ~ls WGY, Schenectady, one of the two most powerful stations -in the .-country, which will probably tie up with the others for ex ceptionaUy big bills. Probably others will bo added to the chain before long. Thus there are three big chains of stations in this country—the Radio Corporation hook-up with WJZ, WRC, WGY, WBZ, KDKA, and KYW; the telephone company chain with WEAF, WCAP, and a./ dozen others and the new system. Slowly bat surely broadcasting in this country is getting around to the condition experts.* prophesied long ago, with long chains of sta tions broadcasting from a single point. It won’t be long now before practically an the big stations of, the country are connected this way, newett hook-up has been ar ranged espeecially to broadcast a program from the bottom of the sea Saturday afternoon. _ i At 3:15 that afternoon, C.

The ampli- t fylng an angements are being handled by the servicfe section of the Radio Corporation. We haa some excell* nt voices on oi)4 program from WRC last night. Edghf Bray, tasso-profundo;, Baza rova, male soprano, and Wi.liam Ballyn, sea songster, give us three entirely different types of voices, but all. were good.

The United States Navy Rand and the Mohawk Male Quartette* will divide honors on tonight’s bill from WCAP. The Navy Band opens the evening program with a concert which will last an hour amd a half. The Mohawk Quartette, composed of Jlai-l F. Gordon, Frank A. Goebel, Raymond Towers, and Clarence Johnsdn, will give a half hour’ re cital of popular songs. Other mu s eal features will be a recital by Miss Lenore Jones, concert pianist, and a joint recital by Miss Marie Koontz, contralto, and Ambrose Durkin, bass-baritone.

Intestinal Evacuant There is now offered to the pub lic a liquid preparation which is not only ar wonderfully effective and QUICK intestinal evacuant, but which also seems to_jstimulate the glands 08~ the intestinal tract and to cause expulsion of flatus (GAS). This preparation, known as Adlerika, is a valuable agent for the purpose of cleansing the bowels of matter which has been in the system a long time and which other less effective means have been unable to dislodge. It is often astonishing the great amount of matter Adlerika draw’s from the intestinal canal —even right after a natural movement it sometimes brings out unsuspected quantities of additional matter. Many times it brings out much GAS, thus relieving pressure in the abdomen, Alderika Is especially valuable when PROMPT action is necessary or to enocruage the elim ination of metabolic poisons through the bow-el.

ISLEPT in one of the spare rooms at the old farmhouse that night, and early next morning crept off to a secluded spot along the creek bed, where I remained till noon, drinking from the second bottle andgalternattng in throes of exaltation and de spair. I had not eaten since the noon before and felt hungry. So long as I felt hunger I knew I was fairly safe against a prolonged spree. It was only when I stopped eating and lived entirely on nerve and alcohol that hope of stopping short of a gutter or hospital vanished. Despite my hunger—and it became acute—l was afraid to return to the ranch. Instead I made my wqf to Cupertino, whore I caught an electric car for San Jose, whence I got into San Francisco. That night I drank myself stupid and finally to sleep tn my room in Larkin street. For several days I continued to drink. Fred Ely, the labor editor, knocked'rat my door the third or fourth night. Ruth was visiting mo and I didn’t want anyone to see her there. I talked to Ely through the door without opening it. He said he had stopped in to see’ If I was "all right.** I assured him I was. I learned afterward that he came at Older’s behest. My disappear ance from the ranch with abso lutely no explanation or word had l worried my friends. The next three or four weeks I battled. I fought to get off liquor again, but** seemed unable to go more than two days with out succumbing to it. I spent one week-end at Glen Ellen with Mil- Ucent. We had lunch with Jack London and his charming wife al the London ranch. I had met Jack a number of times before and ho had always been cordial and friendly. I saw him only a few times after that, the last time in the Sulphur water plunge at Agua Oallente. w That fall Ruth decided upon a “career” and took up a course at the best dramatic school in San Francisco. I often wondered what the other pupils at that school would havy done had they discovered Ruth’s social status. She went through with it, and at my request Older succeeded in getting her a minor part In a playlet that was making the Pantages circuit. A party of us occupied a box the first night Ruth appeared and she acquitted herself splen didly. The next we heard of her was from a Canadian city, where she swallowed poison behind the scenes and had been saved only by heroic measures. Later she returned to San Francisco and the NECKWEAR IS VARIABLE By Alice Langelier— PARIS.

Then there are pleated ones, with a high stand ing collar, finishing off in a little turnover, and buttoned down the side.

Neckwear modes are ex tremely variable, and there is certain to be something for every personality.

But I must not get ahead of events. Back to Ranch. After four or five weeks of in termittent but excessive drinking I voluntarily returned to the ranch, taking a quart bottle of bonded whiskey with me to “taper off on.” I had quite a long talk with Older. He expressed doubt of my ability to pull myself away from the stuff again. He said I would prtfbably wander off as 1 had done before. To convince him that I was in earnest I agreed to allow Jack Black to act as my guardian. It was decided that I might have the quart Os whiskey for the tapering process, but that Jack was to stay with mt night and day for at least a week. We were to occupy con necting rooms in the Old farm house. Along about 10 o’clock that first night, sitting before the grate fire in the old farm house, with Jack telling-me parts of his expedience that should have held mo spell bound, I became nervous and ir ritable. The sense of being a prisoner suddenly obsessed me. Besides, Jack kept urging me to “go slow” on the bottle. Despite my promise to Older I determined to escape, though I knew I should have no easy time doing It. Jack was no slouch. We all loved him because of his innate fortitude and chivalry. He had been through intense suffer ing and injustice, yet he was kind and charitable. Physically he was agile as a panther with ears keen as a rabbit’s had eyes penetrating as those of a lynx. He was the -type in which intuition pro- dominates. To escape from Jack would bo difficult, but an achieve ment qpath while. At half past two in the morn ing I took fully half an hour to ease myself out of my bed and put on my garments. I took another half hour mak ing an excursion into Jack’s room for the bottle of whiskey which I knew he had placed on the floor in a corner of the clothes closet. I took more time in securing my suit case and getting part of my belongings into it. Every movement had to be made with infinite caution. I could hear Jack’s breathing and did not know whether he were awake or asleep. Every Second I expected him to discover me. At last I had everything ready and started for the door leading out to the veranda. I stopped halfway there, my conscience Re proaching me for “throwing down a frieftd.” Possible Suicide. For a moment I was tempted to give up my purpose, When it/ suddenly occurred to me that A was in reality doing Jgtft fubig favor. He had gwtereg into the plan of tatoHling me with much test, Mt I reasoned that when he later came to the realisation-’ that he had been acting as a policeman he would be thoroughly ashamed and disgusted. Police had been the bane of Jack’s ex istence. As a class he had no use for them. For him to feel that he had functioned as one would be a serious matter. He might oven commit suicide! I would save him. The drollness of this sophistry tickled my fancy so that 1 almost burst out laughing, standing there in the dark. (Tq Be Continued Tomorrow.) WHEN DID if HAPPEN?

HOARDING HABIT PARALYZES INDIA Habit Formed in Daye of Famines Persist* and Stunts Progress By ROBERT S. THORNBURGH. Contrasted with those prodigal nations whose undoing has been attributed to lavish gayety and ex travagance is the vast country of India, whose excessive economy, hoarding. and frugality have para lyzed commerce and Industry. Untold wealth in gold and ail ver, is hidden throughout India, while banking, agriculture, manu facturing »nd the, government are gasping for want of capital, accord ing to Emmett A, Chapman, ct the far eastern division of, the De partment of Commerce. "Almost every phase of India's economic life is adversely affected by the century-old habit of hoard ing," Chapman said. "Millions of rupees’ worth of gold and silver are stored in hiding places by the people.” Most customs have their origin 4h ecanomic necessity, Chapman pointed out, adding that this habit of India is no exception. 1 HOARDING “NATURAL.” In years gone by India faced an nually the possibility of widespread famine. If the monsoon, or rainy season failed, either partially or wholly, disaster was sure to follow Owing to lack of transportation and the almost constant conflicts between the different native chiefs, one area would be in a state of famine, while another would have a surplus of foodstuffs. Under such conditions, Chapman said, it was only natural that hoarding should develop. "The band of silver or gold placed around the ankle or arm, the string of coins hung about the neck or buried in the ground, after a season of plenty, meant food for itn entire family during the year oi famine which might follow,” Chap man said. “While the reasons for such safe guards have long since been re moved by modern transportation facilities, relief associations and effective control over foodstuffs, the custdm remains. It may be decades be/ore it will be overcome to any great extent.” LACK OF BANKING CREDITS. Chapman pointed to the lack of sufficient banking credits as a severe handicap to importers and exporters. Besides the Imperial Bank of India, there arc only eighteen exchange banks, sixty nine joint-stock companies and seventy-nine co-operative banks- -a total of 167, or one bank to 2,000.- 000 persons—throughout the In dian Peninsula. Some of these institutions main tain several branches, but the total number is said to be altogether too small to take care -of the credit demands of a country with 31**,- 000,000 persons and ranking as among the first seven countries of the world in aggregate value of its foreign trade. PRESSED FOR FUNDS. "Exporters are pressed for funds during the season of moving crops,” Chapman contineud.

Fve laughed at batters’ pussled frowns, When Johnson struck them out; I laugh at Europe's noted crowns When told they must get out, And still the laugh that’s greatest quite, The one that sets the pace, Although I see it day or night, Belongs to me—my face. f*ve laughed at this, I’ve laughed at that, And other things as well; I laughed at Uncle’s derby hat, When in the mud it fell, i And yet the laugh that never fails Is easy quite to trace; It’s not the horse nor Prince of Wales, But merely my own face!

MUSEUM EXHIBITS OLD WARDER HOUSE MANTEL An old-fashioned mantel taken from the old B. H. Warder house, 1509 K street northwest, recently torn down to make way for the In vestment Building, has been placed on exhibit in the new National Museum, it was announced today. The mantelpiece is regarded as one of the finest examples of work manship of its kind in America, it was designed by the famous archi tect, Henry Hobson Richardson, who died in Boston in 1886. The Warder house was in a distinctive style, known as "Richardsonian Romanesque. The mantelpiece is of hand-carved white holly wood and rose-colored marble, imported from Abyssinia. It was presented to the museum by Wiliam W. W. Parker. THE DIFFERENCE. “I never loved a woman. In all niy life.” ho MUd; “I can never love again, my wife la gone.” said another. "My flrot sweetheart was my only love and she is dead.” "The only woman 1 ever loved was my mother.” Ruch statements are always cause for ire For the maker is a self-constituted liar. "I’d make -any sacrifice for a friend in need “I’ve been an holiest man all my life.” “I practice dally my sacred creed.* •Tve been absolutely true to my good wife.” When we hear these boasters who belong up higher We have a mental reservation each one is a liar. “I would not tdl a lie to save my brother from Jail,” "I’ve never klseed a girl because It Is not right.” “To help the poor and needy I never “Since I’ve been married I stay home every night.” f Listening to these saints our pa tience tires. For we know they are conscienceless Uars. Good men and women never publish their deeds Nor broadcast their virtues among their fellows. Quietly and without display they ob serve their creeds. These are the people who are the truth tellers I OLD SOCKS.
MARITAL MALADIES. After an old bachelor has tried unsuccessfully to peycho-analyze himself, he can get married and have the job done right. An optomist is a man who gives his daughter away at her wedding, without any misgivings about having to take her back again. Many a man marries a woman Ito have her watch over him, and discovers after he gets her that all she does is just watch him. After a man has succeeded miss i ing storm was known to its nuny friends in Washington, was lost in shipment somewhere between here and there. For the last three days, it has been believed that “Welcome” would find its way home and refresh the simmering Capital. But all traces to the rain followed by Mr. Marvin have run up blind alleys, and the city con tinues to mourn the missing down pour. Police are working on a theory of foul play, but optimistic weath er experts laugh this idea to scorn. “Nothing has happened to ‘Wel come,’ they say, hopefully. "It will come home, some day, like Bo Peep’s sheep, dragging its tail behind it.” Be that as it may, no relief is in sight. At this writing,, it is a matter of close speculation as to whether today’s temperature will top yesterday’s. At 9:45 o’clock .o day, the Weather Bureau ther mometer read 87, and if that proves anything, it. proves the worst. As far as the knowledge of the Weather Bureau as to weather changes extends, no rain is in sight during the next few days. COOLIDGE'S ODOMS OGLY Expert Calls White House Furnishing “Horrible and Frightful” The bedrooms of the President and Mirs. Cooldige, in the White House are “horrible and frightful” examples of interior architecture and furniture. This is the frank statement of R. T. H. Halsey, New York ex pert on period furniture, who to day made a preliminary survey of the executive mansion with Lieutenant Colonel C. 0/ Sherrill. Sketches are to be prepared immediately for the refurnishing of the bedrooms with the hope that the work can be completed before the President and Mrs. Coolidge return from Swampscott. Designs* To Be Submitted. The designs will be submitted for the aproval of the President probably within the next two weeks. The bedrooms, according to Mr. Halsey, are grandiose, elaborate and heterogeneous In furnishings. They have a collection of fourteen or more different styles, including some depressing examples of the flat walnut school of the late •70’s In the United States. In Mr. Halsey’s opinion, they are a disgrace to the Executive Mansion, and the w’ork of redecoration should start immediately. Promises of co-operation have come to Mr. Halsey from leading Americaji manufacturers of linens, rugs, and other furnishings. The period furniture to be installed, all of the American or colonial type, will be donated to the Government by private collectors. Green Room Plans. The green room also will be re furnished this summer, it was an nounced today. The room at pres ent is furnished with some old Rococo French furniture that has been regilded. Some of it .was given to the American Government in the Presidency of James Mcnioe. The elimination of all French in fluence in the White House inter ior, and the substitution of the Adam or early American style, is apparently Mr. Halsey’s puiposc. If the three rooms which are to be refurnished this summer—the bed rooms and the green room—are ap proved by the Presidert and Mrs. Coolidge, the other work will go /orward at convenient intervals. There is no longer doubt that the .commission in cnarge of the re storation believe that, the entire mansion should be done over. President Coolidge already has given his complete approval to the colonial or early American idea, and Mr. Halsey today would not comment on the opposition that has arisen from the American Institute of Architects to the work. It was clear that he strongly disapproved of certain features of the work that Charles F. McKlm did in 1902 with the approval of former Presi dent Roosevelt.
