privately owned resources are the re- sources that are creating trade and traffic and producing wealth against which the people can issue checks. Only they pay taxes and support cit izens of the republic.
 Alaska has been developed slower than any of our other frontiers and that is largely because of the bernie ious Pinchot theory and propaganda about the nations ownership of the resources. People have got it into their heads that in some mysterious manner they may cash in on their ownership of the resources if they are kept out of private ownership. It cant be done. The history of the country has shown that the frontiers developed and the nation grew strong and great in proportion as the natural resources were appropriated and de- veloped by private owners.
 What Alaska needs and what the country needs is not the gradual de- velopment" of Alaska if there is any way on earth for us to have a rapid development. The quicker begun and the speedier the development the bet ter it will be for those who live in AL asha, those who may come here and for those who choose to remain in the states. Every day of delay in the development of the territory and her resources, or any uart of them, is 0 day wasted to all of those, and vast ed time is the worst sort of money and energy waste-it is the very opposite of real conservaticn.-Junea Empire

Lockhart, alleged fance OF Miss Marie
Vance, today issued the following
statement:
81 am greatly in the dark as to
these sensational charges ag ainst my
client. The only information ] can
get as to their nature is from frag-
mentary reports found in various
newspapers, which reports would
seem to emanate from Chicago.
81 would consider Los Angeles the
proper situs Of official action. So far
az ] know. no proceedings have been
instituted there and local officers here
have received no information.
''Mr. Lockhart stoutiy maintains his
innocence OF these charges. and his
conduct is not that Of a guilty man.
He has had ample opportunity to
leave the. boundaries of the United
States behind him, had he so desired.
On the, other hand, he remains here
ready to meet his accusers at any
time. I regret the unfortunate no.
toriety given my client in this matter"

G|RLATTACKEO,
CONVICT HELD
Posse Seizes Man Near D. C.
After School Girl Is Found
Unconscious.

Police are holding Nathan Gar
rey, thirty-year-old negro, today
following an alleged attack on Miss
Carrie Huston, fifteen-year-old
school girl of Muirkirk, Prince
Georges county, eight miles from
Hyattsville, while on her way to
school this morning. She was
found near her home, beaten al
most insensible, her eyes black
ened, her face disfigured and her
arms bound by heavy tarred rope.
The girls own scarf was tied
around her mouth.
Immediate search for the negro
by posse composed of Hyattsville
citizens. resulted in his capture after
he is said to have threatened the life
of Constable Thomas H. Garrison
with a pistol.
Upon regaining consciousness at
noon Miss Huston positively identified
CAREY as her attacker, police say.
Information uncovered by police
shows CAREY has served twelve
year sentence for similar attack
on a white girl. only recently having
been released.
Thomas V. Garrison, son of the
constable and former county sheriff.
who is a policeman of the Ninth pre-
cinct, aided his father in the final
struggle with CAREY co-incident to
the capture.
CAREY is being held at Hyatts-
Vile. but feeling is running high in
the community and it is believed po-
lice will seek his removal to the Bal
timore jail.
Miss Huston is the daughter of Mrs.
Martha Huston, a resident OF Muir
kirk for the past sixteen years,
The attack took place one-half mile
from the Huston home. and the girl
crawled the distance to her own door

VICTIM IN Love

ASSERT
Captain of Detectives Says
lockhart Was Not Involved
In Girls Death.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, May a.
A suicide theory in the mysterious
death of Marie Vance in Los Angeles
on April 5, the particulars of which
are now under probe by Los Angeles
and Chicago authorities, was ad-
vanced today by Captain of Detec-
tives Charles r. Moffatt.
SEEK SOURCE OF POISON,
That the girl. apparently deserted
by her fiance and suffering from an
agonizing and hopeless illness, took
nicotine poison to end her misery. is
a very probable solution, Captain
Moffatt believes.
The source from which the poison
was obtained Is. of course. the para
mount point to be discovered before
anything definite Is established, ac-
cording to Moffatt, but as yet, he
stated, no active investigation has
been ordered.
A telegraphic request from Coroner
Hoffman, Of Chicago, has been re-
ceived by the Police Department. in
which cooperation by the District
Attorneys office here is urged. 1t
was also stated that a registered let
ter with full details of the Chicago
angle OF the case was en- route to
District Attorney Thomas Lee Wool
wine. Woolwine and Chief Deputy
William Doran stated today that the
letter had not been received and that
no course. would be announced unit.
1t reaches them.
LOCKHART NOT IMPLICATED.
!, No suspicion of the Implication of
Robert S. Lockhart, well-to-do busi-
ness man of Covington, Va. alleged
fance of Miss Vance, is entertained
by the local Police Department, Mof-
fatt said. This is due to the fact
that Lockhart left Los Angeles on
March 10, nearly a month before Miss
Vance's death, and two reputable
physicians ascribed her demise to
diphtheria, her delicate condition also
being admitted as a factor.
The discovery of nicotine poison
was not made until a recent autopsy
was performed by Coroner Hoffman n
Of Chicago at the request of DR..

tions of a naval character against
Germany until the United States

waters, simultaneous with the occupa-
ton of the Ruhr, IL the allies found
1t necessary to impose new military
penalties upon Germany, were dis
cussed at the initial session of the
council today.

deem the bonds before the thirty

sensible of the delicate and tactfui
al well as courteous, attitude adopted

While the thanks of the Supreme
Council will be sent to the United
States Government for its action,
simultaneously 1t will be explained
that the council is grateful for any
assistance from American represen-
tatlves In future negotiations with
Germany and as regards all matters

DENOTED COP ONCE
MORE TRANSFERRED
ex-Detective Sergeant Baur
Sent to Harbor Precinct
BY GeSSf0rd.

Ex-Detective Sergeant Frank Baur.
who was recently denoted to the
rank of private and who was trans
ferred from detective headquarters to
the Fifth precinct, was again trans
ferred today by order OF Maj. Harry
L. Gessford. superintendent of police.
AT s o'clock tomorrow morning he
will take up his new duties in the
harbor precinct. Making sheep
shank or a half hitch will be nothing
new to Baur. In his younger years
he served Ave years in the navy.
DUTIES NOT STATED.
Lieut.. Russell Dean, in charge of
the harbor precinct, has not yet de-
cided what duties Baur will he as
signed to. The board of police physi-
clans examined the ex-detective sew
eral days ago and recommended to
Major Gessford that he be given
lighter work than patrolling a beat
iE the fifth precinct.
I'VE feel that he should be give n
light work" high police official said
this morning. and that is one of the
reasons he was transferred to the
harbor precinct"
This action on the part OF Major
Gessford was construed in some
quarters today to mean that the ex-
detective has little chance of bein :
reinstated, although IL has been con-
fidently expected that he would D.
back on his old job in a few days.
He has served thirty-three years In
the Police Department, twenty-four
OF which he spent at the. central o.
fee.
SWEENEY NOW OYSTERS AIDE.
Detective Sergeant Thomas Sweeney.
who was also denoted to the rank
of private at the same time as Baur
and who was transferred to the Tent h
precinct, is now doing special duty
for District Commissioner Oyster.
Both men, IL was charged. acted as
guards for truck load of liquor
which was shipped from a Maryland
town to this city. Major Gessford
did not approve of the mems actions
The men were on leave at the time
and the necessary legal permits had
been issued for the removal OF the

Sweeping investigation of hous'

to the Ball Rent Act comes before
the District Committee was prom
ised today by Congressman Focht
of Pennsylvania, chairman Of the
committee.
SCORES AvARICE.
There is no doubt that the resi-
dents of the District are subject to
and overburdened with human avar-
ice," said, Chairman Focht. And II
is high time some measure was pro-
pounded to give them the much need
ed relief"
Chairman Focht advocates that the
rent commission be given additional
powers to regulate and remedy con
ditions. Furthermore, he says, the
powers of the commission should be
extended to give IL the right to in
itiste Investigations without await
ing complaints.
'It has been called to my atten-
ton" said Focht, that speculation
in apartments is rampant here. !
have been told there are literally
Thousands of apartments vacant in
the District and being held for sale
only. This is the greatest evil that
could possibly exist. The apartments
held for sale at exorbitant prices and
the vacancies have a tendency to drive
up rents to sky-high fgures
Il believe the Rent Commission
should be empowered to put an, end
to this sort of thing. and to penalixe

ments or houses for sale and refuses
