RESERVES CALLED OUT

A mob of more than 1000 negroes
fought last night with Edward Sullivan,
a policeman who has been on the force
only a month, for possession of Isaiah
Washington. aged 81, negro porter
employed by the Pennsylvania Railroad
who had killed his wife at Seventh
avenue and 129th street. Reserves
from the West 123d street station res
cued tho policeman and took Washing
ton to the station. where he was locked
up charged with homicide.
Washington and his wife, Minnie. 2S,
separated four months ago. He had
been living at 204 West 141st street
and she with family named Mitchell
at 166 West 129th street. lie begged
her to return to him, but she always
refused. Washington met her at 10
o'clock last night at Seventh avenue and
129th street and began his usual plead
ing. She turned on him,
go away. Isaiah" she said. you've
told me all that before, but when /
come back you always forget it and
begin beating me UP. ] know how it will
be. so don't fool with me any more"
She turned to walk away. Washing
ton, witnesses say, drew a datiron from
his pocket and struck his wife over the
head with it. knocking her to the side
walk. Then he drew a razor and began
cutting ner. Seemingly becoming more
and more infuriated at her, he dropped
his razor and began jumping up and
down on his wife, who was dead by that
time. The streets began to fill with
negro men and women, who screamed
and cursed. Washington became
frightened and ran down the cellar steps
OF 166 West 129th street, where his wife
was employed.
Policeman Sullivan. who is attached
to the Alexander avenue station, in The
Bronx. was block away. on his way to
visit friends. when he heard the first
crowd was thickest. and fought his way
through with his gun in his right hand.
He caught Washington at the foot of the
cellar steps and brought him back to the
street. holding the negro's neck with his
left hand and waving the crowd back
with his right. which held the revolver
The mob refused to believe that Sulli-
van was a policeman, for he is only
% years old and has youthful appear
ance. They backed him and his prisoner
against the wall Of the house and began
struggling to take Washington away

Washington was hustled into patrol

Y. M. c. A. Schools
Aid Many Workers
to Learn Trades

A nationwide interest in vocational
training has developed in the last Jew
years as the result Of pioneering one
BY Y. NJ. C. A. schools throughout the
United States, and apprenticeship Is no
longer necessary to learn a trade. Dur,
ing 1922 there we're 1,945 men enrolled
in educational work in Los Angeles
Cal. Y. NJ. G.. A. schools.
The Y. NJ. c. A. schools are mann
tanned for ambitious men who are not
already served by the public schools
chiefly for the employed men and boys.
This educational program Is the result
of the combined experience of the
'"Y'' schools of North America, which
now enroll more than 10000 students
in resident cGsses and 10000 students
in correspondence courses.
The Los Angeles auto school is a
part of this chain Of schools which now
serves more students than any other
educational institution except the pub
lie schools system, and it gives stand
ardized instruction to all the phases
of automotive upkeep and repair. Stud
ents work under the supervision of in
structors on actual repair jobs.

Plan HOSPITAL
FOR WOUNDED
WAR VETERANS
Passage of State Bonus Bill
Would Mean Memorial,
Says Molumby.

Passage of Montana's adjusted com
.pensation bill to be voted on at the
general election in November, will mean
the erection of a state memorial hos
pital to care for sick and disabled vet
Grams, according to Loy j. Molumby,
department commander of the American
Legion of Montana.
Commander Molumbv says that the
state legion convention held recently
at Kalispell unanimously endorsed the
proposition of building within the state
a memorial hospital and it was his be-
lief that many of the men who would
receive money from the state through
the adjusted compensation bill would
contribute literally to a special tune
to be used for the purpose of erecting
the hospital.
1.-THE state memorial hospital, as
proposed at the Kalispell convention,
would care for ex-service men who are
sick and disabled and whose disability
cannot be connected with service" said
Commander Molumby. 'These men,, at
present, are being treated as charity
patients in county hospitals.
at is certain that many men IN
Montana would be willing TO turn over
the money which they would obtain
from the bonus to a special fund for a
hospital, as outlined by the 'conven-
ton. .
Campaign is Launched
"An extensive campaign in behalf of
1.-THE compensation bill, which was passed
by the seventeenth legislative assem-
bly,. has been launched by the American
Legion, with E. J. DALEY Of Great Falls
chairman of the campaign committee.
Other members Of the campaign COM
mittee include Frank Chamberlain OF
Great Falls. secretary; DIR. D.. S. Nc
Kenzie. Havre; w. P. Mcdaniel, Medi-
cine Lake; r. l.. Owens, Missoula
Judge Stanley 4. Felt, Terry; ID: Gay
Stivers, Butte; G. E. Smith, Hamil-
ton: Erastus Williams, Bozeman, and
IT. V. Moore, Billings.
"Montana's war record, which does
not have to be recalled by the voters
of the state, is, in itself, an assurance
that the adjusted compensation bill will
pass with an overwhelming majority
Chairman Daley said.
despite the somewhat embarrassed
financial condition Of the state" said
Mr.. Daley. II am confident of the
passage of this bill. However, in spite
of my optimism, I would suggest that
voters who failed to register for the
primaries do so Immediately for the
general election"
Briefly, the act provides for the
payment of equalized compensation to
each soldier who served in the military
or naval forces of the United States
during the world war between April 6,
1917, and November IL, 1913.
Allows $4,000, 900 Debt
The act authorizes the state to be-
come indebted $4,500,0O0 and provides
for the issuance and sale of bonds
for this amount for the payment OF
the compensation.
Persons who served In the military
or naval forces of the United States
between the above dates, and who dur
ing their service did not refuse or
conscientious, political or other grounds
and were bona fide residents of Mon
tana at the time of enlistment, viii
receive $40 a month, or major frac-
ton of a month, for active service.
The total amount is not to exceed
