A MOTHERS PRAYER.

Accompanying a check for the Dem
ocratic Campaign fund was this letter:
Elizabeth, New Jersey, Oct. 6, 1920.
Georgia White, Esq,
Chairman Democratic Net. Com.
New York City, N. Y.
Dear Sir:
"Please accept the enclosed small
contribution to the fund for dissemin-
alton of truth about the League of Ma
tions. 1t is literally widows mite,
but it comes from a mother who sent
four greatly needed sons to TIE World
War. Two of those sons, with almost
unlimited possibilities for future useful
ness, were killed; third was i'll in
hospitals in France for five months,
due to casing in action, and is still
casCified as unfit, and fourth risked
his precious young life in the air.
When an hnest and concerted effort is
being made by tie nations of the earth
to save, if possible, future mothers and
sons from these sacrifices. it is hard to
realize there are those who oppose an
effort. / feel sure that among those
who paid for the war there can be but
one opinion, and that is to try the Lea
que Of Nationss, even if it is not per-
feet. 1t is the best that has been pro-
posed, and, all objections being weigh
ed, is manifestly the most feasible.
Please God it will not fail.

(Mrs. Edward Crawford Davidson)"

MRS. Gait SUPPORTS cox
AND URGES INDEPENDENTS
TO BACK HIM WITH VOTES

Urging Independent voters to sup
port Cox and Roosevelt in order that
Americas entrance into the League of
Nations may be assured, Mrs. Carrie
Chapman Gait, president of the Ma
tional Woman Suffrage Association,
whose influence throughout the coup-
try probably is greater than that Of
any other woman, has written letter
to the Pro-League Independents telling
why she will support the Democratic
national ticket. Mrs. Gait makes it
plain that she is not Democrat and
partisanship has no part in inhuenc-
ing her. The National Womans
Party, which carried on a campaign
for suffrage distinct from the one
waged by the organization headed by
Mrs. Gait, also has issued formal
endorsement of Cox. Mrs. Catt's let
| ter follows in part:
II am glad to accept the appoint
ment as one of the Vice Chairmen OF
the Pro-League Independents. | an
enrolled in no party and desire to con-
tinue a non-partisan. / have long
been an advocate of League of Ma.
tions and | now believe in the League
because a League Sin the hand" is
worth any number of Leagues Sin the
bush"
81 agree with Senator Johnson who
said Cleveland, Oct. 14th) that 'the
League of Nations is the greatest
campaign issue since the Civil War.
When he announces further that Mr.
, Harding wants neither interpreta.
tions, nor reservations, but rejection
! and Mr.. Harding does not object, il
becomes clear that the way to enter
the League does net lie in the direc.
ton of Mr.. Harding. The only hope
promised by the Root statement pur.
porting to represent the League wing
of the Republican party, is that Mr.
Harding, if elected, will cause an en-.
tire new Covenant or fundamental re.
visison of the present one to be writ.

What G. o. p. Success Spells

"Wllat next? To secure its ncces-
sary adoption by the Senate, sixty
four votes are required. Even if the
most roseate Republican expectations
ere realized in the coming election,
that party could not command more
than fifty-six and this number would
be hopeessly divided between the
group led by Senators johnson and
Borah, which will consent to no
League, and those who might be raj.
lied by tie support of the new cove
nant. The Republicans would be
forced to secure anywhere from twen-
ty to forty Democratic votes in order
to ratify the new proposal. Is it rea-
sonable to suppose that these Demo-
Gratis will be more literally inten-
toned toward a Republican covenant
than Republicans are toward an al
legged Democratic covenant? A Sen
atorial deadlock seems the only posi-
BILE result arising from that combina-
ton of circumstances.
"There are millions of men and wo-
men who will vote on the Democratic
and Republican tickets because their
traditions would permit them to dc
nothing else. There should, however,
be determining number of independ-
ent men ;nd women voters who aspire
to no party favors, recognize no party
thralldom and fear neither the criti-
cism of friends nor foes but who do
want their votes to serve the evolu-
ton of society. These should be able
to turn the tide and by so doing to
open the door for the entrance of our
nation into this world-compact to
build the enduring peace. This does
NOT mean that l have allied myself
with the Democratic party for am
not a Democrat"

FEW DUMPS LEFT
FOR C|TY'S REFUSE
Maj. Besson Reports Difficult.
ty in Obtaining Available
Ground in Suburbs.

Washington is approaching a sit
uation where it will soon be difficult
to find land on the outskirts of the
city which the owners will permit
to be used for dumps. Maj. F. S. Bes-
SON, assistant Engineer Commissioner,
pointed out today.
The condition toward which Wash
ington is drifting has been brought
to the attention of Maj. Besson by
the necessity of abandoning the dump
on Benning road to make way for the
Anacostia Park project.
Another Dump Probably Doomed.
For the past two weeks the mis-
salvaged has been dumped on a
stretch of land at the end .of NJ stree,
northeast, between Goth and 2Sth
streets. This. however, is close to
the site which the government is
considering for a new home for the
Botanic Gardens.
There are not many places left in
Washington where refuse can be
dumped" said Maj. Besson. "Oi
course, there is no difficulty in secur-
ing permission to dump clean ashes
on vacant land. because they are de.
sirable for fillingin purposes. Blu,
nobody wants to give you permission
to unload all kinds of waste material
on their property"
Refuse Not Easily Salvaged.
Most of the refuse taken from
homes is salvaged at the District
reclamation plant in Trinidad. The
refuse which goes to the dump is
from markets, business places ant
large apartments, which is not easy
to salvage.
Maj Besson believes, that within
fifteen years there will be no avail.
able dump land in the District. Wher
that time comes, the assistant Engi-
neer Commissioner said, the city
probably will have to have a big in
Generator and dispose of the refuse
which has no salvage value in that
manner.

CONFESSED SLAYER
IS UNDER INQUIRY
William H. Campbell May
Face Other Charges
of Assault.

A further investigation of the do
ings of William II. Campbell. color
ed. confessed slayer of Mrs Gertrude
Harrison Mann, a music teacher, ls
being conducted by the police with a
view to determining if he committed
any other assaults on women since
his release from the National Train
ing School for Boys. 1t is pointed
out that the similarity of the attack
on Mrs. Mann and another woman
victim of an assailant suggests the
possibility that both attacks were
made by the same individual.
Campbell Stoutly denies that ne
committed any of the other assaults
however, but. it is stated, he did not
tell the truth about the disposition
of Mrs. Mann's watch when first ques-
toned. and he may have new story
to tell of other crimes.
Took Detectives to Spot.
The prisoner maintained that he
dropped Mrs. Mann's watch not lar
from the scene of the crimes and went
so far as to take the detectives to the
spot where he said he dropped it. Yes
terday afternoon he changed his story,
telling of where he had sold the time
piece in Baltimore, and Detectives
|O'Brien and Darnall went there and re-
covered it.
William Johnson. a colored employe
OF an acid plant on the outskirts of Bal
timore, is the individual who surrendered
the watch. When first questioned by
the detectives he is said to have de-
clared he lost it overheard. but a second
visit to his place of employment resulted
in his giving up the watch. The detec-
tlves paid him 81. the amount he paid
Campbell for the watch.
May Face Twenty Charges.
Police say they will have at least
twenty charges of HOUSEKEEPING and
pocketbook snatching against the pris-
oner, in addition to the charge of MUIR
der, and further questioning, they be-
heVe. may bring to light additional
crimes to charge against him.
1t is probable that Campbell will be
arraigned in court early the coming
week and committed to Jail without bond
to await the action of the grand jury
The police plan to have the grand jury
investigate the murder case early in
September and will ask for an early
trial by jury.
