The won1en's clubs of the country
have organized for statewide tree
planting. In California each district
Of the federated clubs has been sup
piled with tree-planting data from the
association. In Georgia the tree plant
ing was done in the winter by the
Georgia federation, when thirty-one
memorial groves were planted under
the direction of Julia Lester Dillon.
In Delaware the federation is coop
Grating with the great bodybuilding
program there in order to have the
highways Of the state become n big
'road of remembrance" This is one
OF the biggest programs before any
%state,' says Charles Lathrop Pack,
president of the American Forestry
association. "Every state should
watch what General du Pont and the
state Of Delaware does. Samuel G.
Lancaster, the highway engineer who
built the Columbia river highway, has
submitted a comprehensive plan to
General du Pont. This includes tree
planting on an intelligent scale.
"The greatest educational campaign
the country ever saw is being worked
u through the schools of the country.
The coming generation will know the
value OF forestry to the country in
which it lives. Our forests are like
a bank. We must deposit in them if
we hope to draw out. Through the
planting of trees ard the study of
outdoor life the children will easily
take. up the economic side OF the sub
ject and understand what must be
done toward saving u forests"

shows hat others may become rich

Plants Alone Walls,

Soils near walls are usually too dry
In summer and too poor. Before
planting take out the soil to a depth
and width of three feet, adding ma
nure, and leaf mold if it is to be had.
After mixing, return the soil and allow
it to settle. Climbers and other plants
may then be grown there successfully.
Water will be required daily during
hot weather.

SCHOOLS OFFERED
SIX MOVIE HOUSES
Board of Education to Take
Up ACCESSIBILITY of Plan at
TomorroW'S Meeting.

Consideration of the advisability of
using motion picture theaterS as one
method to relieve temporarily over
crowding in the public schools will
be taken up by members of the board
of education at meeting in the
Franklin School tomorrow afternoon
at O'Clock. The loan of six photo
play houses already has been offered
school officials. but indications are
that use Of them at this time is not
feasible.
Supt. of Schools Frank w. Ballou
said today he would inspect the Gin
ema theaters at the first opportunity,
and report to the school board wheth-
er they can be adapted for school pur-
poses. The superintendent and Dr.
Abram Simon, president of the school
governing body, are both impressed
with the public spirit shown by the
moving picture theater managers in
offering to loan their establishments
for the use of the schools. 1t was
stated in The Star of Saturday that
several public school officials question
the practicability of using the film
playhouses on the grounds that they
are not lighted properly, have no
desks, and the inability of obtaining
janitorS.
Plans for drafting the deficiency ap-
preparation bill which will be sub
mitted to Congress early next month
also will be discussed by board mem
bers at tomorrow's session. The de-
f1ciency measure will ask for appro-
priations for operating the night
school system until June, and to pur-
chase additional supplies for children
in the elementary grades. The night
schools will be forced to close in
March unless funds are granted by
Congress in the deficiency bill for
their operation for a longer period.

WANTS NICKY ARNSTEIN
BROUGHT HERE FOR TRIAL
Attorney Laskey to Press Charge
Relative to Alleged
Stolen Securities.

United States Attorney Laskey today
sent to Thomas D. Mccarthy, United
States marshal for the southern dis
trict of New York. writ of habeas
corpus issued by Justice Gould of the
District Supreme Court for the pres
ence in Criminal Division 1 next Fri
day of Jules, alias Nicky, Arnstein,
who is in the custody of federal au-
thoritieS under commitment for
contempt of court in bankruptcy pro-
ceedings. Mr.. Laskey wishes to have
Arnstein in court to be arraigned on
an indictment for conspiracy to bring
stolen securities into the District Of
Columbia.
Others jointly indicted with Arnstein
are Isadore Cohn. who has not been
apprehended; Randolph 5. Newman and
Joseph Chuck. both of New York, and
David w. Sullivan. Wilen W. Easter
day and Norman S. Bowles of Wash
Iington All except Cohn are under
bond and will be notified to appear for
arrangement with Arnstein on Friday.
Arnstein is under indictment in New
York in connection with the larceny
of s., 000, 900 worth of securities from
brokers, some of which were brought
to Washington, it is alleged. and
hypothecated with local banks for
several thousands of dollars. Mr..
Laskey has been in communication, it
is said, with District Attorney Swami
in New York and it is expected the
New York prosecutor will make no
objection to the Washington trial TAX
ing place first.
Marshal Mccarthy, it is expected,
will honor the writ issued by fed
eral judge and will bring Arnstein
here next Friday. Should the ar
raignment take place counsel for the
accused will likely ask leave of court
for time in which to demur to the in
dictment. Mr.. Laskey will endeavor
to have an early date set for the ar
gument of such demurrer and will re-
quest that the day for the trial be
fixed as early as the crowded condi-
ton of the court docket will permit.

Addicts. unable to obtain their favorite
drugs in desired quantities because OF
the restrictions of the Board of Health,

stores in various parts OF the city and
have stolen nearly $4,000 worth OF drugs,
according to reports yesterday made by

along Lexington and Second avenues and
warehouses also have been entered. There
have been recent robberies at Berger's.

leading the police to believe that the
robberes were committed by the same
group of thieves That the men were
seeking only drugs was indicated by the
fact that in all OF them nothing was taken
but morphine, cocaine or heroin. Money
was not touched.
The largest theft occurred at the Con-

Charge of Murder
Against DR.. Sch0tt
Dismissed by Jury

LOUISVILLE. KY, Tuesday.-Indict-
ment of DIR. Christopher G. schott on
charge Of murder in connection with the
death OF Miss Elizabeth Griffith, his Of
flee girl was refused today by the JEFF
ferson County Grand Jury.
It's report TO the judge of the criminal
court merely rected:- -
THE investigation of the case of DR..
Schott. charged with wilful murder. is dis
missed"
Miss Griffith. who was seventeen years
old. was found dead on the floor of DIR.
Schott's office about three o'clock on the
afternoon Of December a. Coroners in
vestigation established that she had been
shot through the heart. An automatic
pistol. which the physician said was his
own, was found under her body.
Two days later Dr. Schott was arrested
charged with murder. He maintained he
could have had nothing to do with the
girls death and offered a statement tend
ing to show that he was delivering Christ
mas presents to his patients at the hour
the Coroner said Miss Griffith had been
killed. The statement was supported by
Laurene Gardner. thirteen years old, who
declared she had been with the physician
assisting him on his Christmas errands.
Truth will prevail" DR.. Schott is quoted
as having said when the Grand Jury's
report was read in court. II have never
worried about the case" he added. II
always thought everything would come out
ali right. or course. / feel gratified at
this complete vindication."
The view Of Mrs John Griffith. mother
of the dead girl. was that her daughter
did not commit suicide. There is another
and higher court" she said. "and as sure
as there is a God in heaven the guilty will
DC punished"
