 thority to do so by the officers of the law. This point was vigorously fought in cross-examination by the state. Much conflicting evidence was introduced relative to an alleg- ed threat by Smith to drown the

Which Prevails.

every Washingtonian should lend
hand in the movement to correct an er-
roneous report that has gained wide cir
culation throughout the country to the
effect that by reason of the international
situation the public buildings in the Ma

doing so they will be doing a real service
for the city, one that may be estimated
in dollars and cents"
That statement was made yesterday by
Frederick Schwab. president of sight

ing a great falling off in the usual number

COLLEGE ALUMNAE
TO MEET APRIL )
Eighty-TWo Branches of Asso-
citation to Be Represented
at National Capital.
GRADUATES OF So SCHOOLS

When the Association of Collegiate
Alumnae assemblies in Washington for
its convention, April to Is, inclusive,
it's delegates will include many of the
presidents Of the leading women's col
leges of the country, deans of women
in other colleges. woman trustees and
woman professors. There will be dele
gates from the eighty-two branches of
the association, and also from the
alumnae organizations of practically
all the women's colleges of the coun-
try. Aside from the foremost woman
educators the delegates will represent
leaders in nearly all lines Of activity
in which women engage.
Alumnae of fifty-two colleges and uni
eligible to membership in the associa-
ton. Higher degrees from nine other
institutions, beside a number of for
eign universities, also entitle the hold
ers to membership.
The Association of Collegiate Alumnae
was organized in 1882 by a group of
seventeen college graduates in Boston,
under the leadership of Mrs. Alice Free
man Palmer. After the organization
was completed the sixty-six members
represented eight women's colleges and
three coeducational institutions. Now
there are about $4,000 members in all.
Nearly 1000 of these are members of
the various branches, and the rest are
affiliated through alumnae associations
to which they belong.

Why Association Was Formed.

The association was formed originally
to raise the standards of women's col
leges to those attended by men. As
each college achieved this standard its
graduates became eligible to the asso-
citation. Therefore the fifty-two col
leges from which slumnae now are ell
gible indicates the success of this effort
in bringing women's colleges to high
scholastic standard. A committee on
recognition examines the standards of
every college from which alumnae apply
for membership.
The association also insists on GER
tain standards in the way women are
treated. In coeducational institutions
dormitory and other provision for women
must be on par with that for men,
There must be dean of women and
woman professors must have the same
status on the faculties as male pro-
fessorS.
The Washington branch, which is
entertaining the association, was the
first branch organized. 1t was formed
twice before, the last time in 1900.
Several hundred delegates are expected.
In addition to the sessions Of the con-
yention there will be conferences of the
presidents of the association colleges.
of deans, of school principals, of
alumni associations and of branches.
Miss Lucy Madeira of Madeira School
is chairman of the conference on school
principals. The headquarters will be

lege in Baltimore. and on Thursday
