Mr.. Hampden's presentation Is rich

sonnet Of Petrarch, and Juliet Is al

pure. Much OF the play Is written
in rhyming lines. which are often
lyric rather than dramatic, making
them very difficult to read without
declaiming.
Mr.. Hampden's Romeo is the story
of one delivered from the dream OF
love to the reality of passion. He
nurses that passion, sheds tears,

a luxury. Mr.. Hampden Is the perfect
Romeo within the restrictions OF his
vocal qualities. The masters of grand
opera composition are wholly right
when they invariably make their
lovers tenors. Mr.. Hampden's robust
voice at times overstressed the role.
Beatrice Maude's Juliet is far and

LEAGUE TORENEW
VAN SCHA|CK FIGHT
Gathers Data alta. for Legal g
Steps to Test His Quail
ficafio1S. ,s.

Steps to contest the legality Of the
appointment of DR.. John Van Schaick,
jr., >as a member of the board of
Parents League as final effort to
have Ernest E. Thurston retained as
superintendent Of schools. Members
of the league today began gathering
data in an effort to prove that DR..
Van Schaick is not legal member of
the school board.
Under the law, person cannot be
appointed member of the school
board unless he has been a bona fide
resident of the District for five years
preceding his appointment. DR.. Van
Schaick was appointed to the school
board in June, 1915. and on July IL
that year was elected president of
the body.
Leaders Of the movement to contest
the legality of DR.. Van Schaick's ap-
pointment have obtained data given
in the hearings before the Senate Dis
trict committee, comprising a voting
and registration record of Cobleskili,
n. Y, with the name Of DR.. Van
Schaick listed as voter in October.

ton as District Commissioner.
1t was pointed out that when Will
liam A. Houston, colored, was ap-
pointed member of the school board
In May, 1913, persons opposed to him
obtained evidence showing that he
voted in Illinois the same year. When
this was disclosed Mr.. Houston re-
signed from the board. 1t is along
this line that the Parents League in
tends to conduct the contest against
DR.. Van Schaick, it was said today.
Definite plans for the contest will
be made at meeting of the league

NEW FREIGHT T|E-UP
LOOMING UP IN D. c.
Shippers Representative
Says UnsoId PerishabIes
Clog Potomac Yards.

Another congestion Of freight in the
Potomac Yard is likely to occur if the
practice of certain shippers in other
cities of sending their unsold perishable
commodities to this yard is not cur
tailed, said George H. Gushing, ship
pers' representative of the Washington
terminal committee, today.
The movement of fruits and vegeta-
bles in Potomac yard is rapidly ap-
preaching a maximum, according to Mr.
Gushing. He said that congestion is
likely to result, which will interfere with
the movement of other commodities, If
this practice of shippers in other cities
is not curtailed. He said that every
day that, these cars stand in Potomac
ward they have to be switched to the
icing plant to have the cars reiced and
that this proves a serious drain on the
motive power of the yard
Arrivals of foodstuffs in Potomac
yard in the past twenty-four hours
were: Potatoes, "a cars; tomatoes, S
cars; Vegetables, 4 cars; grapefruit,
cars; oranges, 2 cars; melons, cars;
! car, and eggplant, / car
These were the receipts that were
unsold at the time of arrival at the
yard and were in addition to fruits
and vegetables received consigned to
a definite destination.
Within the past twenty-four hours
two cars of cucumbers which stood
on the tracks three days and two cars
of potatoes which had stood for three
days were released from the yard.

CUT IN MILK PRICE
URGED ON DEALERS
BY HEALTH OFFICER
0versuppIy Being Shipped
Here Said to Have Caused
Some to Spoil.

With more than the necessary sup
ply of milk being shipped into Wash
ington this summer, Health officer
Fowler is planning to appeal to the
local distributors to reduce the price
to the consumer while the product is
plentiful.
While the health officer has no au-
thority to regulate the price, he has
men in the business In the hope Of
convincing them that it would be, to
their interest to lower the price and
thereby dispose Of more milk.
DR.. Fowler said he believes that
even cent reduction in the retail
relieve the distributes Of the possi-
bility Of having some of their milk
spoil on their hands.
Farmers May Be Called In.
One representative distributor, when
asked about the possibility of a re-
duction during the next month or
two. suggested that the health Off
Ger should also confer with the
farmers if he hopes to bring about a
reduction.
This milk dealer said that the
farmers contract to ship their milk
at a fixed price from May to October,
which price remains unchanged even
II there is an oyesupply. He fur
ther said that tn distributors must
take all the mills produced by the
farmer even though it is more than
actual requirements. provided the
surplus amount is not too unreason-
able.
Cool Weather Blamed.
The dealers contend that the present
oversupply is due to the cool weather,
which has kept the fields good for
grazing. AS soon as the weather gets
hot, they say, production will fall off.
1t was admitted by one of the local
distributors that a part of the over
supply is loss. The farmers, it was
pointed out. do not like to have the
dealers halt shipments when the sup
ply is more than the amount required.
The dealers dispose of some of the
surplus by separating the cream and
selling it.
1t appears doubtful that the health
officer will be able to induce the dis
tributers to come down in price unless
the farmers agree to make a similar
reduction while the supply is plentiful.

GETS A SETBACK"
IN SUBCOMMITTEE
Mr.. Hogan Will Present Cues.
ton to the Full Com
mittee.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN.

CHICAGO. June 10.-The proposed
plank in the republican platform IA
voring national representation for
the District Of Columbia received a
severe setback when the subcommit-
tee Of the resolutions committee
failed to include it in the draft of
the platform which 1T is to lay before
the full committee today. A final ef-
fort to have the full committee act
favorably on the District plank will
be made by Frank y. Hogan, the Dis
trict's representative on the commit
tee.
It was explained that the subcom-
.nIttee refused to place the District
plank In the platform because it com
Sfdered the matter local to the people
Of the District. Members of the sub
committee said that If they had
opened the doors to such planks, at
fecting only part of the country, they
would have been flooded.
the league of nations issue, the labor
problem and a number Of other major
questions to pass upon, the subcom-
mittee was not inclined to go too
deeply into the less important mat
tiers presented to it.
While an effort will be made in the
full committee to get favorable action
on the District plank. the expecta-
ton is that the report OF the sub
committee on platform will be ac-
cepted by the full committee with
practically no change.

WILL URGE RAISES FOR
STATUTORY EMPLOYEES
Commissioners to Press Congress to
Act at Next Session, Col.
Kutz Says.

In view of the fact that the fire.
men, policemen. teachers and per diem
workers of the District all have had
salary increases, the Commissioners
intend to do all in their power to get
higher pay for the statutory employees
of the city government at the next
session of Congress, Engineer Com
missioner KutZ said today.
The groups that have been given
higher salaries by Congress number
more than 1000, the Engineer Com
missioner said. leaving the small
group of about $50 statutory workers
to meet the greatly increased cost of
living with the same low wages they
received before the war.
There are many efficient clerks on
the statutory or annual roll of the
District receiving 5000 a year. while
men and women doing the same kind
of work in the federal departments
receive considerably more.
The Engineer Commissioner con-
ferred yesterday afternoon with 3
committee of employees to plan a
campaign in behalf of the statutory
workers. Commissioner Kutz sug-
gested that the committee call a
mass meeting of District workers to
consider the creation of permanent
organization committee to support the
movement.
The committee. of which Thomas
Medford is temporary chairman. in
dicated that such a meeting will be
called. The temporary COMMITTEES Will
meet Saturday afternoon to arrange
for the mass meeting.
