Would Increase
Interest Rates of
D. Pawnbrokers

An amendment to the loan shop
law OF 1913. will be among a number
of measures affecting the District
which the Commissioners will send
to Congress when :he special session
opens.
The bill to be submitted will raise
from 1 to 2 per cent the rate
OF interest which pawnbrokers and
moneylenders would be permitted TO
charge. Since the rate Of interest
was restricted to one per cent, prac-
tically no pawnbroking business has
been carried on in the District.
1t is the belief of the Commission
ers and the citizens committee in
charge of the question of pawnbrok-
ers, that there is need for pawnshops
in the city under certain regulations.
A better regulation for the city's
milk supply is being redrafted by
Health Officer William c. Fowler for

WANDERER MURDER
ARMY" DISBANDED
Triple Killer Declares Death
Cell Associates Nothing
but Buns.

CHICAGO. April Carl Wan
derer's Jail army" has been dis
banded. Wanderer. himself a triple
murderer. complains bitterly of the
lack of discipline in his army. In
eluded in his command were Gene
Geary. murderer Of two or three men
of which there are records; four
members Of the notorious Cardinella
gang. with six murders to their
credit. and Manuel Lopez and Harry
Ward. Two negroes under sentence
of death tried to join the army" but
the super-murderers drew the color
line. There was also the matter Of
ethics. The negroes had only killed
one man and hardly classed with the
others.
That guy Geary is crazy" COM
planned Wanderer TO the jailor. He
shuffles along and doesn't know his
right foot from his left. Then Cardi-
nella quits in the midst of a maneu-
yer to go and moan in his cell.
They're a lot of buns"
Since his conviction the former
army officer has recalled many of mis-
experiences around the camps. He
was always considered hard boiled
by his associates. During training at
.Chickamauga Park, Wanderer bor-
rowed considerable money and was
pressed for payment. He disappeared
over Sunday. but came back Monday
evening with plenty of money and
two black eyes. About that time
three soldiers were found in an alley
in Chattanooga. blackjacked and
robbed. One of them had managed
to hit their assailant between the
eyes with a brick. The coincide nee
created considerable talk. but no ac-
ton was ever taken.

The Count1yS Response
CFrom the New York Tribune.)

point is reached when the railway
employees announce that they will
starve everybody unless they alone
get continuance OF war wages and
new gain of so per cent. through
the fall IN prices.
The railroad organizations say
they are battling for their existence
The claim is a false one. II has no
more validity than the Kaiser's
claim that Germany was attacked" !"
The brotherhoods have not been in
danger OF extinction But It may ne
that they will be smashed If they do
not draw back. II so. the respon-
sibility for the wreck will not be
with the public, but with its mad
assailants. Again one thinks Of the
Kaiser.
But it is said this strike is TO avert
further wage reductions, not to null
lify the II per cent. cut OF July l..
It is not so stated in the ultimatum.
II fears are controlling, why not wait
for a basis for fears to develop :?
The mere application Of the railway
executives for permission to reduce
wages was nothing. What right was
there to assume the petition would
be granted? Did the brotherhood
leaders apparently have a brain
storm?
That a strike along the lines pro-
iected cannot succeed is as plain as
any future event can be. The public
will no longer endure minority rule.
The policy of President Harding
should be to insist on an immediate
abandonment Of the threat pending
search for a basis OF settlement.
