BABY ALIVE ON EVE
Of CRANK'S ARREST

sion, Says He Slept With
Infant.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 21.-Augusto
Pasauale. THE Crank" and Blakely
Coughlin slept side by side on the
at Egg Harbor. N. J.. by State police.
"The Crank" who is now locked up
in the Norristown Jail charged with
the KIDNAPPING of the Coughlin baby,
made this voluntary admission to
Captain of Detectives Alfred j.
Souder Just before he was taken from
city hall to the prison.
Captain Souder described yesterday
the manner in which Pasquale came
to make the statement. 1t was on the
night that local detectives and State
police made their wild quest by auto
mobile in the midst of terrific
thunderstorm in the swamps sur
rounding Egg Harbor. Pasauale.
said Captain Souder. had told his in
quisitors everything he apparently
knew about the kidnapping. He had
given them directions how to find a
house in a clearing where he said
they would find the baby.
"The Crank" retold his story OF
going to Swedeland and getting the
$4,000 which Mr.. Coughlin placed
under a trolley station there as ram
som for the baby's return. Then he
told of the house in the clearing
where Joe and Rose and the baby
would be found.
Turning to Captain Souder THE
Crank" said: "Well, you've got me
right. You've got me now. Go and
get the baby, but for Gods sake
don't do anything to Rose. She don't
know anything ABOUT this KIDNAPPING"
State police officers and local de-
tectives made a dash for the door of
Captain Souder's office. They went for
the automobile with which they later
plunged away into the night on that
heart-breaking and fruitless quest
which disclosed the house In the
clearing. empty and deserted. Captain
Souder likewise started for the door.
"Just a minute, captain" said THE
Crank" II want to tell you some.

WANT TO RENT AN
IDEAL APARTMENT?
Here's 0ne-Unfurnished-l
New York, and the Rent
Only $4,000 Per Year.

Have you found a place TO live? II

Individual storage room.
The rent? Oh, a mere matteer Of
$4,000 or so a year. about $500 an
hour. depending upon which moor your
apartment is situated.
OF course. this is unfurnished, but
you have the satisfaction OF knowing
that the finish" to your apartment
is the finest obtainable. doors or
black walnut, imported mantels, etc.
FOR REMIT" HARDLY!
Even II you happen to have $780,
900. that you don't know what TO
do with. II is hardly likely that you
will be able to get an apartment In
the house on Fifth avenue and
SiIty-third street. Most of the apart
ments were rented on long-term
leases before the building was finish-
ed. In such cases the apartments
were divided to suit the tenant: The
floor space was cut up according TO
the ideas of the man who was to oc-
cupy IT.
This explains why some of the
apartments contain only mere eight
cen rooms. Such tenants probably
did not have large families and chose
instead larger rooms. There Is only
one apartment to each of the twelve
floors, so II was possible TO suit the
taste Of each individual without In
terfering with anyone else.
"FINEsT IN WORLD"
Even in New York 100000 is a
great deal of money to pay for rent,
and the apartment house at $50 Fifth

the city. And the finest apartmen mt

Water, Dye, Oil From
Peel, Make Up Orange
Drinks, Say Chemists

If you want to be sure that you
are drinking orange juice when you
buy orange colored bottled drinks,
get out the fine print "cheaters
and read the label or squeeze the
fruit yourself, warns the Depart
ment of Agriculture.
Because beverage comes in
bottle with picture of an orange
on it. is no sign that ii contains the
juice of the fruit. according to Off
Gals of the Bureau of Chemistry.
Many such drinks are made of
sweetened. artificially carbonated
water, colored with dye and flavor
ed with little oil from the peel OF
the orange.
Information as to the exact con-
tent of the bottle usually can be
found on the label, but the depart
ment warns the public that the
manufacturer usually is very mod
est in displaying this information.

REALTORS SEEK To
STANDARD|ZE FORM
Fred E. Taylor, President of Ma
tionaI Association, Plans to
Simplify Transactions.

Strong Endorsement of the move
to have all States adopt a standard
real estate license law is given by
Fred L. Taylor, new president of the
National Association of Real Estate
Boards, in an open letter in the Ma
tional Real Estate Journal.
"The license law is not inspired or
intended to keep any honest person
out of the real estate business" says
President Taylor. Nor do its spon-
scrs presume that IL will ever be
possible to legislate honesty into Or
dishonesty out of human nature.
"As law-abiding citizens who have
respect for governmental authority,
however, we do believe that we'll
planned real estate license law, carry
ing penalties, sufficiently severe in
tone and effect can be administered
to the very great benefit of the pub
lie as a means of protection for the
uniformed man or woman purchas-
ing or selling real estate.
Groups of men in considering this
matter most concede that IT is i'm
possible to attain perfection at the
very start. Everything begins in the
beginning. Once law is on the
statute books and has been in force
IL Is much easier to enact desirable
amendments than to formulate and
adopt a permanent complete meas
ure at the outset.
"Probably the most difficult point
to determine in drawing up a real
estate license law is the matter OF
qualification. Who is entitled to d
license? 1t is the hope of many
realtors that this question may be
answered with finality in the near
future by the establishment of
comprehensive real estate educational
course in our universities and col
Ieges. The National Association Of
Real Estate Boards would. of neccssi-
ty, be called upon to assist in sug-
gesting and developing these educa-
tional courses.
"Is IL too much to hope that ulti-
mately a certificate OF graduation
from one of these courses may be
required before a person VIII be per-
mitted' to engage in the real estate
business? Similar certificates or ex-
aminations are now required of our
lawyers, doctors, teachers, dentists,
architects, BARRIERS, auto mechanics,
engineers, accountants and pharma-
cists. Our profession Is second to
none, and. while IL Is not interviewer
with as many technical terms and
rules as some OF the other vocations
~ IL nevertheless entitled to the dig
nifty of legal recognition and control"

SOLD AT AUCTION
Owners Of Subdivision Engage
Joseph p. Day to Dispose Of
Home Sites at Big Sale.

Joseph p. Day. the New York auc-
tioneer. whose sales OF real estate have
aggregated SO many millions OF dol
lars that he has come to be known
as the Billion Dollar Auctioneer."
has been engaged TO sell the beautiful
subdivisior kaown as "Crestyiew."
situated at the junction OF Massa-
ohusetts avenue northwest and the
District line. This subdivision con-
sists OF 500 building lots. and. as it's
name indicates, Is located on the
crest OF a hill and has a view of the
surrounding city and country very
rarely equaled.
The owners OF the property have
decided that this was a hitting time
20 place this property on the market
for quick disposition.
SALE ENCITEs INTEREST.
This decision has excited the great
est amount Of interest among the
real estate men OF Washington, be-
cause IL means the liquidation of one
OF the finest and most beautifully To-
Gated allotment properties in and
about the suburbs OF Washington.
Several methods OF quickly selling
Interested parties have agreed that
inasmuch as the real estate market in
Washington never exhibited brighter
prospects than II does at this time,
that to sell this property at public
auction would mean a great sacrifice
and slaughter of prices and deprive
the owners of the property of the In
crease in values certain to follow the
unusual and increasing demand for
homes. others are insisting, however,
that a public auction sale is the most
likely method to pursue in order to
secure quick results.
GIVE UP IDEA OF PROFIT.
The owners have cut loose from all
considerations of profit and have COM
missioned Joseph p. Day. auctioneer.
and his organization to place the
property before the public without
delay.
The people of Washington and in
fact all over the adjoining communi-
ties will have an opportunity to pur-
chase the most attractive home sites
in and around Washington at un-
precedented prices at a time when the
values of land are increasing and will
continue to increase, and the sale
without question will be the largest
auction sale In the history of the city
The sale will be held under a NAM
moth tent at the junction of Massa-
chusetts avenue and the city line
northwest
