NO DISCRIMINATION SHOWN
GEN. DAVIS DENIES CHARGE
AGAINST THE RED CROSS.
Orphans of Catholic Parentage Not
Turned Over to Non-Catholics
for Training and Education.

Resenting the charge that the Ameri-
can Red Cross has Disseminated against
Catholics in the training and education OF
orphans resulting from the Italian earth
quake, Mai Gen. George w. Davis. chair
man of the central committee of the So
ciety. today made public a letter he had
prepared denouncing the statements as
untrue This letter was addressed TO
Anthony Matre, general secretary of the
American Federation Of Catholic Socie-
ties, who stirred the ire Of the ofhcials OF
the American Red Cross by publishing
an open letter last spring, in which 1t
was charged, on authority of a Roman
newspaper. that the earthquake orphans
in the American Red Cross Orphanage
were to be passed over to the control OF
non-Catholics. such as Hebrews, Masons
and socialists, for education.
Gen. Davis bases his reply on an IN
vestigation made by Ambassador GrlScom
al Rome To the ambassador the Count
ess Spaletti Risponi, the president OF the
Queens Orphanage. who, as such. has
general supervision over the branch
known as the American Red Cross Or
phanage, explained the arrangement Tor
the training of the orphans.

the conditions in which their families
We're, with the only tendency to ameiio,
rate those conditions. We consider II to
be our duty to bring up these children
in the religion of their parents"
Gen. Davis says that those appointed
by the king to the solemn trust Of rear
ing these orphans are dischargtng their
duty conscientiously The letter contains
a mild criticism of the general secretary
for not taking pains to inquire into the
proofs relied on to support the asser-
tons which were the basis for the ar

No Seats in Iowa Circle.
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor OF The Star:
After reading in The Star recently the
brief article headed Enjoy the Parks
feel compelled 10 point out how unfair
and unjust it is to deprive those OF us In
the vicinity of beautiful Iowa Circle of
that pleasure. 1t is an ideal place in
which to seek rest and quiet, but since
the removal of the seats nurses and
mothers with their babies. as we'll as all
who formerly enjoyed going there for
breath Of fresh air on the hot summer
evenings, now have to simply walk
around and through it. and sit around on
the stoops Of the vacant houses which
surround this beautiful park most of the
summer for the owners and occupants
are mostly out of town at some cool re-
sort. The lovers of music cannot enjoy
our band concerts like those who patron
ize the parks where they have seats. We
have been deprived of these seats for
three years. and when l say GIVE us
our benches l voice the sentiments Of
hundreds in this section. l hope the
friend of us all. The Star, will help US in
this matter. Mrs. L. c. MAYBERRY.

TOO MUCH VINO FOR A FLIGHT
WRIGHT AERoPLANE REMAIN
ED IN SHED YESTERDAY.
Secretary of War and the Secretary
of the Navy Inspect the
Machine.

As intimated by Wilbur Wright. those
who iourneyed to Fort Myer to see
the aeropiane fly yesterday had their
trouble for their pains. The flier id not
fly. 1t did not even emerge from its shed.
There was wind that varied from six
TO twelve miles an hour and the anne
mometer above the aeroplane shed was
busy every minute. The instrument has
come to be familiarly known as Annie"
among the frequenters of Fort Myer. and
when Annie is working the aeroplane is
not. This does not mean that if the plane
were in actual use in warfare it could
not operate except in a dead calm.
Wars are not conducted that way, but
the machine i'll the aeroplane shed is
new one and the WrightS want to try it
out in nearly still air possible to get
familiar with its personal peculiarties be-
tore flying it in wind
Flights in Strong Wind.
AS a matter of fact they have flown in
wind up to twenty-seven miles an hour in
a machine with which they were thor
oughly familiar.
There was a distinguished party at the
fort yesterday, including the Secretaries Of
War and the Navy, Gen. Clarence Ed
wards. Mrs. Nicholas Longworth. Repre-
sentative Gardner of Massachusetts and
Representative Burton Harrison They all
took look at the machine and asked a
lot of questions about it all Of which the
WrightS answered. 1t is understood that
the inventors, when they have the time.
are going to prepare a form of letter Civ
ing answers to not more than 1,26I queS-
tions that are regularly asked about the
machine. They will keep stack of them
in the shed with u label over the top
Take one"
Crowd Finally Departs.
The crowd hung around yesterday till
about o'clock when the order given
to close the shed and the Wrights re-
turned TO town.
The Secretary of the Navy with Lieut..
Sweet, who has been detailed to represent
the Navy Department on the trial board.
went over the machine carefully 10 deter
mine its practicahility for navy use. The
Secretary decided there was no reason
why the machine should not be launched
from the deck of batteship, or. If nec-
essary, from vessel built for the pur
pose. The Navy Department has already
prepared specifications for four machines,
but the lack of money has prevented them
from being advertised. 1t is possible.
however. that provision for flying ma
chimes will be included i'll the next naval
appropriation bill.
