PRISONERS FRIENDS
SOON WILL MARRY

Somehow the flowers out in the
front yard smell sweeter and the
sun seems to shine a whole lot
brighter-brighter than at any time
since you went away"
These words in a letter from her
gray-haired mother, eighty years old
and lonely, waiting in her little home
in a West Virginia town, thirty miles
from a railroad, to hear any news
or her daughter, mean more to Miss
Evelyn Abbott, secretary of the
Prisoners Relief Society, than the
finely engraved words on the cards
that today announce her engagement
and approaching marriage to DR.. E.
E. budding. DR.. budding is presi
dent of the Prisoners Relief Society,
and the two have worked together
for. years to help the helpless who
trudge out from prison walls to be-
gin new lives in a world that is cold
and holds them at a distance.
DR.. budding and Miss Abbott will
be married in New York some time
iE the next thirty days. The exact
date has not been determined.
They are not going: to have any
honeymoon.
, DR.. budding last week gave his
best suit of clothes to a man just
out OF the penitentiary who was
looking for work. A clothes manu-
featuring concern in Indiana heard
about it and sent the prison worker
new suit, so DR., Budding will be
married in style after all.

GARDINER OFFERS
>. NENLOANLA

Commissioner Gardiner has pre-
pared for introducing in Congress a
stringent law for regulation of pawn
brokers' and their, business in the Dis
trict, a business. practically forbidden
here for years, but fiourishing just
over the District lipe, where the poor
who are compelled to obtain loans
are required to pay heavily for their
needs. 49,.
The existing law allows a charge Of
only per cent a month on loans,
and legitimate loan societies have
been. unable to conduct business at
that rate. The PROPOSED new law per-
nits q rate as high as 3 per cent on
loans up to $50 and 2 per cent a
month on loans above that sum- Any
attempt to collect more makes the
loan void.
Pawnbrokers, would be required to
make daily reports to the Police. De-
partment; open their books at all
times to the police and courts; give
an accurate description of the Dor
rover, with name and residence; pay
a license fee OF $500 annually, and
give a bond OF $4,000 for the due OBJ
servance OF the act.
The law is intended to cover only
such articles as may be left with a
pawnbroker as security for a loan
and Is intended to prevent the loan
ing of money upon furniture, chat
tells, and household effects. No pledge
may be sold until 1t has been one
year in possession OF the broker, ex-
cept by consent, and sales must be
made at auction, conducted by q
licensed auctioneer. Notice of sal,
must be published six days in ad-
vance.

CALDER TO FIGHT
TO SAVE DAYLIGHT

as o s" signals are being sent
broadcast by Senator Calder Of New
York to chambers Of commerce and
labor organizations to rescue the day
light saving law from repeal by the
nations farmers.
"The daylight saving law is in i'm
minent danger" Senator Calder
warned today. "The farmers Of the
country threaten to force its repeal
in the House, and the only way for
1t to be saved Is for the people Of
the cities to come to its rescue"
To combat the pressure that the
farmers are bringing upon Congress
to repeal the law, Senator Calder,
who is the author Of the daylight
saving law, has enlisted the aid of
the United States Chamber Of Com
merce in the Tight against repeal
Each member of the, House and
Senate today received q letter from
the organization protesting against
the repeal OF the law, which is point
ed out as Of absolute value to indus
trial life and conditions. Not only
will members Of Congress be reached
by. these appeals, but labor unions,
boards OF trade, and, other business
bodies throughout the country will be
urged to come forward in support OF
the law. e..
Senator Calder predicted that never
before in the history OF Congress will
such an avalanche Of propaganda del
uge Congress as will be- sent out by
the friends OF the daylight saving
law. Unless immediate Iand. effective
steps be- taken, Senator, Calder de-
