PUTSMOTHERS
IN HIS LIST Of
GREAT WOMEN
RudoIphe de Zapp Feels They
Have Been Neglected in
Honoring Notables.

Much has been said recently
about the twelve greatest women
Of this country. and ! believe that
in the various names submitted the
most sublime women have been
overlooked" said Rudolphe de Zapp,
president Of the Washington Salon
and United Arts Society, who has
taken a deep interest in the ques-
tion, as according to him, the
names of the candidates suggested
reflect the present day psychology
Of certain type Of American
woman.
After all is said and every argu-
ment has been thoroughly thrash.
ed out and the merits Of each can
didate has been searchingly scru.
untzed, everybody must admit that
the greatest woman on earth Is
the successful wife and mother" I"
declared Mr.. de Zapp. without
her everything fails: without her the
pages Of history would not reflect
with the glorious achievements of
great men and heroic sacrifices Of
noble women-sons and daughters
OF splendid mothers. 1t seems for
this reason extraordinary that there
should be a lack OF names of wo-
men Of that kind among those that
have been submitted as candidates
for the "Woman's Hall of Fame"
Bearing In mind his views in the
matter Mr.. de Zapp submitted the
names Of Mrs. Harding. mother of
the President of the United States.
Mrs. Pershing, mother Of General
Pershing; Mrs. Edison, mother of
Thomas Edison. the greatest in
ventor Of the age; Mrs. York, the
lowly Southern mother Of Ser
geant York. one Of the greatest in.
dividuals Of the world war: the wife
Of the Italian Janitor in New York.
who bore her husband something
like eighteen children and who re.
ceived the congratulations and well
wishes of President Harding:
Mother Jones. the friend of the
poor laboring man; the mother of
Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt the
mother OF Jane Adams and others
Of this character.
The most advanced and radical
woman's rights woman must admit
that the greatest pride and glory
of woman and that which renders
the greatest service to humanity 10
the successful wife and mother and
that there Is no other individual
achievement that can excel these
virtues"

OVER 1921
Board Makes Announcement
After Lengthy Discussion of
Auditors Figures.

The new tax rate on real estate
and tangible personal property to-
day was set by the District Com
missioners at $1.30 a hundred. the
rate to be effective five years,
retroactive to July l last.
This rate is an increase over
last years rate. The rate last
year was $1.82 on two-thirds as
sessment. while the rate this year
Is on full assessment.
1nasmuch as the new fiscal year
has opened, and the $240 bonus is to
be in effect until July, 1928, it is not
probable the new reclassification bill
will become operative before the lat
Ter date. Should the bill pass this
iummer. however, efforts will be
made to reclassify Government EN-.
ployes, and, II Is believed, the entire
iystem can be put into effect within
another year.
Senator Sterling believes the new
bill will have the support of a large
majority in both the House and Son.
lte. II the tariff bill can be passed
BY the Senate during the next four
weeks, 1t will assure action upon the

There is a possibility, however,

In The Hat

With his hat in his hand and
his hair standing on end, Clar-
ence Dickerson, of Seat Pleas
ant. Prince Georges county,
Maryland, yesterday rushed up
to Lieutenant Beckett, Of the
First precinct. at Fifteenth and
H streets northwest, and breath
lessly exclaimed that he had
been shot.
Lieutenant Beckett did not
see any bullet wounds, nor
could he see any reason why
Dickerson should appear ex-
cited.
"A bullet whizzed by me q
few minutes ago-I don't know
whether it went through mel"
exclaimed Dickerson.
Beckett happened to look
down at Dickerson's hat. He
noticed a hole through it. Sure
enough a bullet had passed
through the hat. Dickerson.
upon the di7covery, felt better.
He said he was walking along
Fifteenth street when he heard
a pistol shot and a bullet whiz-
zing by. He thought he was
shot. 1t is believed the bullet
was fired by some one celebrat-
ing independence Day.
