Theodore r.. Howard was IA years
and IL months old at the time of the
accident, June 81, 1919. He was in the
employ of the post office delivering
special delivery letters. On the morn
ing Of June 21 he was riding on his
motorcycle south on Waverly street,
which separates the state house grounds
from those of the supreme court build
ing. The bus Of the Marion hotel was
driving west and at the same time q
street car was going east. Although
the view is not obstructed to any ex
tent at this corner, it seems that the
hotel bus struck Howard as he was
coming from Waverly onto State
throwing him in front of the approach
ing street ear. He died few hours
later. Silas E. Howard, the fathes who
brings suit, is the veteran mail carrier
of Salem.

SMITH BEUTTLES
FRENCH CHAMPION
Britisher Says Carpentiei
Fast Losing Furnishing
Power And Speed.

London, Sept. 6.-Georges Carpenter
the French heavyweight champion and
worlds championship aspirant, has got
to hurry up if he wants to beat Jack
Dempsey, the American, or else he will
find himself in the discard.
This was told the United Press today
by Carpeltier's latest victim, Dick
Smith, former light heavyweight cham
pion of Great Britain. Smith was knock
ed out by the Frenchman in the eighth
round in their recent fight at Paris, but
despite this, the Britisher says Carpen-
tier is slipping and that if he does
MT hurry up he will be a g has-been.''
Carpenter has one punch-an up
percut. But don It think it is anything
to get scared about. / felt it several
times and honestly believe that if he
hadn It fouled me twice below the belt
in the seventh round, would have beat
en- him. said Smith.
''Hc has slowed up considerably on
his footwork but is still able to flash
his hands. But up to the time he knock
ed me out his punches didn't have any
great force believe Joe Beckett, the
British heavyweight champion, will
stand up to him for twenty rounds. AT
the same time think Carpenter will
stay the limit and get the decision. His

ever, it is an even c,ey bet as to who
will win. Beckett can knock him out

FORMER GIANTS BIG
AID TO OTHER CLUBS
Many New York National
Stars Strong Factors In
Rival Camps.

New York, Sept. GA popular pas
time at the end of any baseball season
is to comb over the teams in. the Ma
tional league and point out what for
mer Giants did in the way of helping
out rival clubs.
Small chance to overlook any club in
this kind of summing up. Every club
in the league, with only one exception,
is burdened with ex4New Yorkers. A
pennant could fall to any of them and
not escape the sympathy of the statis-
tic 'fiend who figures how much the
former Giant had to do with the vic
tory.
On the Cincinnati club are Heinie
Groh, Eddie Rousch, Bill Rariden and
Slim Sallee.
Boston has on its payroll Hank Cow
ldy, Dies Rudolph, Cecil Causey, Ar
| thur Wilson and Walter Holke. John
Paul Jones is due to report there after
the International league season.
Ferd Schupp, Milton Stock and Leon
Ames are former Giants now with the

With the Phillies are Gene Paul

But also take look at thu
Giant lineup.
Hal Chase was originally Yankee

HUN women SEEK TO
LECAL|zE CHILDREN
National Assembly Asked To
|, Relieve Plight Of legii-
|, mates.

Berlin, Sept. 6.-Women members Of
the national assembly have recently
striven to have included in the new con-
stitution clause whereby illegitimate
children would have a stronger standing
in the community than at present. The
women were anxious to see such children
takea the name of their fathers, but this
proposal did not carry.
Frau Zictz made speech wherein she
declared that the double standard of
morality is unfair to womenkind and to
children born out of wedlock. Illegiti-
macy is quite prevalent in many parts
of Germany, and the women members of
| the assembly were inclined to believe
that il could be decreased if the fathers
were forced to give his name to the
child.
4 Women members of the assembly have
shown a strong interest in moral wei
fare questions, and in educational mat
tiers.
They are especially anxious to have
German educational standards raised
and they are interested, too, in matters
! of economic welfare.
In connection with the question of il
Legitimacy, some of the women raised
the point that the economic situation Of
Germany was responsible for the fac
there were fewer marriages than there
should be. Frau Zietz particularly ex
coriated the capitalist classes for pay
ling small wages, thereby hinderins
many from marrying who would other
wise enter matrimony.
! women's participation in German
rnlitics appears to be working out well
as they tend to give q higher tone +
.aay questions than might otherwise b
the case.
j, Several of the women members hav
developed the art Of oratory rather well
though for the most part they do not ge
. the same publicity that male member
, of the assembly do.

justments in rates were given by the
commission on October Is.
However it was only a short time
later that the Public Utilities Com
mission of the District granted an in
crease In rates. This made IL neces-
sary for the Virginia Company to file
with the Interstate Commerce Com
mission several plans of adjustments
OF rates provided in the decision of
October Is.
The company asked the commission
to provide for penalty tax Of cents
on trips costing 80 cents or less, and
10 cents on trips costing more than
81 cents, where the passenger fails to
purchase a ticket and pays cash fare
on the cars. The Inconvenience ne
cessitated by the conductors collect
ing cash fares is necessary, the COM
pany asserts, and for this reason asks
the penalty OF cash passengers
The company also asked the com

U.S.. BUY COAL MINES
Former Senator Lewis Makes
Prediction After Confer
ence With Tumulty.
PUBLIC UTILITY STOCKS.

After a conference with Secretary
Tumulty at the White House today,
former Senator Lewis of Illinois pre-
dicted that the Presidents message
to the December session of Congress
would contain a recommendation that
the Government purchase coal mines,
coal fields, oil wells, and oil lands
throughout the United States.
Lewis expressed mis- belief in Gov
eminent ownership in a recent speech.
He believes the Government will not
try to operate the properties pur-
chased. but will operate them through
private contract or personal agencies,
This move, Lewis declared, would
prove one Of the remedies for the
present coal strike and similar as
turbances from private ownership of
national public utilities.

The exchange of the Second Liberty
loan per cent bonds and the First
Liberty loan bonds for permanent
bonds will not be made until March
Is, 1920. A number of the local
banks have been under the impress ion
that the exchange of the temporary
bonds for the permanent bonds would
be made some time this month.
The permanent bonds are now in
the process of preparation. it was
learned at the Treasury Department
today, and distribution will not begin
until next spring. Some of the banks
however. have alredy prepared re-
ceipts for the temporary bonds, and
expect to begin receiving them from
their customers after November Is
The Second Liberty loan per cen,
bonds have no coupons attached fol
interest accruing after November Is
1919. By beginning the receipt OF
these temporary bonds this month, the
banks expect to avoid a great deal OF
confusion by thus allowing their Gus.
toners plenty of time to turn in theiI
temporary bonds.
Detailed instructions to the banks
as to how the exchange will be made
and what forms will be necessary are
being prepared by Treasury Depart
ment officials in charge of the ex
change OF bonds. These instructions
it was said today, would be ready fol
| distribution the latter part of the
week.
The statement was called forth by
the prevalence Of the idea among
bank officials that the exchange OF
bonds would be made this month.
