Boys Plead for Place TO
Go in SWin1n1i1l'

1t was a sad and sorI owful occa-
sion
Three hundred boys climbed from
the pools at the municipal bathing
beach at 4:30 yesterday afternoon
and watched the men take possess
sion. At 6 O'Clock the beach was
closed, and will so remain until Con-
gress passes the District appropria-
ton bill.
Mister, amt there no way you
can fix it so we boys can go SWIM
MINI" inquired one youngster of
Supt. W. B. Hudson.
The weather is just getting right,
and there amt no place for US boys
to go. 'cept the river and the SWIM
min holes in Rock Creek Park.
Well help all we can, and we won't
be bit of trouble; honest we won't.
DR.. Hudson was sympathetic but
helpless.
The appropriation for the first fif-
teen days OF July provided for by
the continuing resolution was ex-
hausted yesterday. and nothing re-
mained but to suspend operations.
The difficulty lay in explaining to
the boys why a rich government like
that of the District, aided by the
United States Treasury, should find
itself without few hundred dollars

ROADSIDE HEARINGS
FOR SPEED V|OLATORS
Maryland Authorities Take
Drastic Measures to Have
the Laws Observed.
By HARRY WARD.

Rigorous enforcement of the Maryland
automobile law is to be made by the
Maryland Authorities from this time on.
Washington motorists who use Mary
land roads. and there are thousands of
them, will do well to strictly observe
the rules and regulations prescribed by
the last legislature of Maryland, as H.
A. Roe, commissioner of motor vehicles
Of that State, is determined to make ex-
amples of all those who violate any of
the provisions of the law now on the
statute books.
To enforce the law four MOTORCYCLE
deputies have been appointed. and tney
have power to make summary arrests
without warrant, and cause the Of
tenders to be brought before the near
es; justice of the peace. In many cases
when arrests are made in the future
a justice will be close at hand wnen
the motorcycle deputy makes The ar
rest and a roadside trial will be held.
One of the most fragrant violations
of the law is operating an automo-
bile over Maryland roads without
having a license. The law prescribes
that no person shall operate a motor
vehicle upon any highway in Mary
land until he first shall have obtain
ed an operators license for the
purpose. There are said to be $1,000
licensed motor cars in Maryland. and
Of this number there have been issued
only 10000 operators licenses.
The motorcycle deputies are planning
tn stop every motorist on the highways
and demand the production of his op-
orators license. In the absence of such
license the driver will be summarily
arrested and subjected to a fine.
1t having come to the attention of the
commissioner Of motor vehicles of
Maryland that some Washington auto
mobile dealers are evading that sec
tion # the law which provides that il Is
violation of the automobile law for
any dealer to use his dealers tags for
ErivGte use or for hire or loan, efforts
Will be made to make such dealers
strictly observe the law.
dealer Is permitted TO use his license
numbers on his car when travelling over
Maryland roads with prospective Gus
toner, but II he takes his family or
friends in his car over the roads he
must have his car equipped with the
regulation license numbers.
As many motorists persist in using
their electric horns when passing
thr ough towns, cities, and villages after
dark, the authorities IN Maryland have
been instructed to arrest all such Of
tenders. Under the law only horns
blown by means of a hand pressure
upon 4 rubber bulb shall be used after
dark when passing through any COM
munity

LABOR EXEMPT|ON| IS
QUESTION OF DEBATE
Legal Sharps Say Only the
Reorganization" Is Free From
Trust Law Provision.

Does the debated labor exemption"
clause in the Administration antitrust
bills now before the Senate really ex-
empt labor unions from Sherman law
prosecution?
This is a mooted question at labor
headquarters, the Capitol. and White
House today. Notwithstanding reams of
arguments on the subject clogging off,
cial records.
President Gompers and officials of the
American Federation OF Labor who
have been leading the fight for incor-
poration of the exemption clause are
satisfied with the phraseo:ogy now in
the bill as passed by the House. The
President, too, is satisfied. and House
and Senate leaders accept it as o. X.
But the actual operation of the clause
is still problematical. High legal au-
thorities in Congress - where legal
"sharps" predominate-insist that only
test Of the clause in the courts will
decide whether labor receives or is de-
MED any privileges under the new pro-
posed law
The wording Of the disputed section
is as follows:
Provided. that nothing contained in
the antitrust laws shall be construed
to forbid the existence and operation
of fraternal. labor. consumers, agricul-
tural or horticultural organizations, or
ders, or associations instituted for the
purposes of mutual nerp. and not hav-

DEMOCRATS TO HAVE
VOTERS TEXT BOOK
R. L. MetcaIfe, of Nebraska,
Will Write the Congressional
Campaign Document.

For the first time In many years.
the Democratic Congressional Com
mittee Is going to issue a campaign
textbook. The issue Of such publi-
cations for the edification and en-
lightenment of the voter Is common in
Presidential years, but 1t has not been
done ordinarily for the Congressional
election.
The plan to issue the textbook
points: first, to the fact the Demo-
cratic Congressional Committee is much
better off financially than II used to
be in the lean years when the Demo-
cratic party was not in power; second,
to the fact the Democratic leader
ship intends to work with more than
ordinary energy to retain its grip on
the Government.
Back in the sad years when Jim"
Griggs, of Georgia, was leading for
lorn hopes in Congressional campaigns
there was little money to spend for
text books In the biennial contests to
control the House. But now times for
the campaign management are more
flush.
The text book will lie for the guidance
of the Democratic campaign orators as
well as for the voter. In fact, the book
will be a work from which the SPELL
binder can draw texts out Of which he
can construct speeches.
r. l. Metcalfe, of Nebraska until
lately of the Isthmian Canal Commits
sion, now candidate for governor of Ne
braska, will be the author of the work.
Mr.. Metcalfe has been chosen by Chair
man Doremus for the task

Treo Girdle- All Elastic

The "Treo" Girdle is a radical de-
parture from the conventional style cor
set and therefore one cannot judge the
size "Treo" Girdle they require by the
size corset worn heretofore.
This garment is made to meet the
prevailing style of uncorseted effect or
Venus like figure and is not intended to
reduce the waist size, but to modify the
hips. The waist size of the "Treo"
Girdle should be about the same as the
uncorseted waist.
To insure perfect comfort and salts
faction the "Treo" Girdle should be
pulled down until the waist line band
rests at the hips.
AS the supporters should hold the
Girdle down firmly they must be pulled
tight

porters do not tear the stockings.

More Political cshdid,tes.


That Senator John Is McLan-
rim of Marlboro, and Represeata-
tive N. w. Hardin of Cherokee,
will align forces and run& for
governor and lieutenant gov
ernor respectively, was informa-
tion given out from authoritative
sources late Saturday.
Senator McLaurin definitely
announced his candidacy to sue
ceed Governor Blease, but Repre-
sentative Hardin made no an
nouncement. 1t is known, how
ever, that this proposal has met
his approval. Both men are now
intimate friends, both agree in
matters political. AS regards
their affiliat;on with the political
factions of this State, it is
generally conceded now that the
Senator and Governor Blease
have reached something closely
approaching an agreement, and
the stand of Representative Har-
din in the lower house has al
ways been clearly aligned with
the wishes of the administration.

Mexican Situation Grave.

President Wilson Tuesday re-
vealed to those who discussed
Mexican affairs with him that he
fully realized the gravity of the
situation resulting from the kill
ing Of William S. Benton, the
British subject, the reported
murder of Gustav Bauch and
Clemente Vergara, Americans,
and General Carranza's denial of
the right of the United States to
look after the interests of for
eigners generally in Mexico.
The president spoke deploring-
ly of armed intervention, but at
the same time pointedly referred
to the size and power of a coun-
try like the United States as be-
ing sufficient to warrant for a
calm and patient course while
compliance with the American
demands was being sought.

YOU CAN'T EARN MONEY
WHEN YOU'RE LAID UP

There are lot of people in this town
who can't afford to be sick. Perhaps
none of you feel that you can, but GER
teinly some of you can't, for as soon as
you are sick, your wages stop and wor-
ry and debts begin to pile up. The SEN
sible thing to do, as soon as you feel
run down and worn out, no matter what
the cause, is to take something just as
qnicd as you can to build up health and
strength. Make yourself more COM
Portable and provide against serious
sicknes>.
We ovn't believe there is any other
medicine made that will do as much to-
wards saving your health and thus help
ing you save your money as Rexall Oh
i've Oil Emulsion. 1t is medicine that
gets right at the trouble and relieves it
by toning the nerves, enriching the
blood. and giving new strength to the
whold body. II doesh' do this by means
of alcohol or habit-forming drugs, be-
cause it contains none. 1t strength
and health-giving power is due to pure
Olive Oil and Hypophosphites, long en-
dorsed by successful physicians, the
one for its food ealue, the other for it's
tonic value. Here, for the first time,
they are combined, and the result is a
real nerve, blood and bodybuilding
medicine-a real strengthened that we
are proud to tell you about. You don t
need to hesitate in using it, because if
if doesu't do all we say it will and sat
isfy you in every way, it will cost you
nothing. If it doesn't make you strong
and well again, come back and get your
money. 1t will be given ia you without
