Comment

From the above it will be seen that
Anne Arundel is not the only county
that has unsatisfactory school build
ings. But it will also be seen that
the people of this county have Che
proper spirit of support for the
schools, since they voted for and pass
ed the bond issue.
Unfortunately those who have
charge of the selling of the bonds
have not yet been able to satisfac-
torily dispose OF them. That means
that the school tax for the coming
year must be sufficient to take care of
repairing the buildings which are now
not even fit for. the children to attend
school in.
Let the educators take heart,
though, for with the public opinion
with them. they will be allotted enough
of the county revenue to properly run
and repair the schools.
The public is going to see that they
get what they are asking for.

QU|zCONGRESS
ION P.0. BERTHS
Questionnaires Ask Every Mem
ber If He Wants Civil Service
Ruling Revoked.

The Republican membership of
Congress is today wrestling with
the difficult problem of postmaster
patronage.
Representative Fess of Ohio,
chairman of the Republican Con-
gressional Campaign Committee, has
sent QUESTIONABLE to every Re-
publican representative, inauiring
whether the member favors revoca-
tion of the executive order issued by
former President Wilson placing,
first, second, and third class post
masterships under civil service and
removing them from patronage.
FACING DILEMMA.
1t is presumed that this action IL
taken at the instance of President
Harding, who must decide whether
the Wilson order will stand or be re-
voked.
Members OF Congress find them
selves in a peculiar dilemma in an
swering the QUESTIONABLE sent out
by Representative Fess. The ma
jority of the members find the recon-
mendations for postmast ership to be
mendstiops usually lead to factional
fights in the home districts. On the
other hand, the members are not anxi-
Gus to see the Democratic appointees
continue in office while the deserving
Republicans remain tobless.
The QUESTIONABLE sent out by Rep
resentative Fess leaves one avenue
open to Congressman who are faced
with a difficult duty in choosing be-
-
berths. The QUESTIONABLE will put
every member of the majority on
record as to his attitude concerning
the appointment of postmasters
through competitive examination.
WANT ORDER REVOKED.
While the replies to the question
naire have just begun to come in. it
is understood that they indicate that
the Republican members desire the
Wilson order revoked and the Wilson
postmasters turned from office. At
the same time early replies indicate
that a majority are in favor of ap-
pointing Republican postmasters
after a competitive examination.
Republican members know that IL
the Wilson order is revoked they
will be charged with returning to the
"spoils" system, but they declare that
the order was not promulgated un-
til the former President had filled all
Of ethe available berths with deserv-
ing Democrats.
When the questionnaires have all
been returned to Representative Fess.
1t is understood that a complete re-
port will then be made to President
Harding. In the meantime thousands
of anxious Republicans are scramble
ing for the favor of their Congress
men

Stokes PLAYS
TRUMP CARD
Produces Woman Who SWears
She Saw Wife in Wal
Iace'S Room.

NEW YORK, March 15.-Tht
Stokes divorce suit was lifted from
the field of comedy to the plane OF
melodrama yesterday afternoon by
the most startling evidence so far
read into tho record. Mrs. Helen
Elwood Stokes was forced to listen
to the testimony Of woman who
swore she saw the young wife in q
room with Edgard T. Wallace, at 1S
East Thirty-fifth street.
SAW THEM FROM ROOF.
For two hours. this woman, Mrs
Mabel Matteosian, wife OF an archi-
teet described the incident to the
least detail She had seen tho couple
from an extension roof eighteen feet
away through an open window In
Wallace's apartment, she said. and
called her husband and brother-in
Law to view 1t. -
Mrs. Stokes stared nxedly at the
witness through the recital The ac-
cused woman's face was colorless, her
concentration and her lower lip was
caught between her teeth. Half turn
Ing, with elbow resting on the table
ana chin poised on the back of her
small gloved hand. Mrs. Stokes might
nave been a statue. Fifteen feet
away, Mrs. Matteosian went through
the narrative trembling. She was SO
nervous that she literally shook in
the chair. She glanced about the
room at times, and again stared at
the hoor, but she never let her eyes
rest on the woman staring across the
table.
Mrs. Matteosian Is slight, dark
haired and dark featured and attrac-
tive. She wore a sport hat Of henna
silk with curling brim, long coat of
blue serge trimmed heavily at collar
and cuffs with krimmer, black silk
stockings and plain kid pumps. Her
first husband. william J. Reilly. died
in Denver more than ten years ago,
che said. 1t was there that she first
saw Mrs. Stokes, she added so that
when they met on the stairway lead
ing to the Wallace apartment, she
recognized the visitor. Mrs. Stokes
called there frequently, the witness
stated. including once with Mrs. Mil
Ter. her mother. In May. 1914. she
continued:
WA ssII-TING ON ROOF.
IL was sitting on the roof of the
third floor extension of our apart
ment. within six or eight feet of the
open window of the Wallace apart
ment. / could see straight into the
room. 1t was evening. I saw a woman.
1t was Mrs. Stokes She went to the
dresser and began to fix her hair. Sud-
denly she exclaimed: NV Roodnessv
Then I saw q man. 1t was Mr.
Wallace. He said: Pull down the shade
But the shade was not pulled down
right away. 1 called my. husband and
my brother-in-law. They came out
on the roof and looked-and saw.
Then Mr.. Wallace came over himself
and pulled down the shade"
All this came ir answer to a steady
stream of carefully timed questions

any ideal" as though to forestall
questions that were pending
During the direct examination, Mrs.
Stokes had not stirred muscle and
her position only became more tense
as the narrative rolled into the rec
ord. But when Littleton's cross-ex-
animation began to shake the wom-
ans credibility ever so little, a semb-
lance of a smile began to form on the
young woman's lips. Another woman
was on the defensive now. The black
fringed blue eyes opened slowly and
blinked now and then. in a way that
was not pleasant to look on as Mrs.
Stokes watched the nerve-shaken
woman on the stand before her.
MRS. STOKES IS PLEASED.
Slowly. as Littleton continued to
spray doubt and suspicion on the
statements of the accusing woman,
the little finger of Mrs. Stokes left
hand slipped into her mouth. as a
child might do and her teeth closed
on the gloved digit. Then iLttleton
roared:
But with all your recognition,
photographs and recollections, Mrs.
Matteosian, you still came to this
court last week to look at Mrs. Stokes
and, WHY"
The witness was silent a moment
before answering:
ITO identify Mrs. Stokes!"
Littleton countered:
80 even then you were not sure
1t was Mrs. Stokes you had seen in
Denver and Wallace's apartment"
Above the sound of the exhausted
-f-
inference came sharp popping
ejaculation. In the suddenly relieved
strain that followed the question Mrs.
Stokes had snapped that little finger
out of her mouth. as youngster
would pull lollypop that really pop
ped. For the first time yesterday the
dimples returned to the plump cheeks
of the young wife. and she smiled in
embarrassment.

from her face. shrilled: Yes. yes.
