that it had gone unprepared. He COM
the G. NJ. T. G. for one month during
the summer, and said it was this spirit
as manifested by them and by the men
who attend the other summer training
camps that has enabled the nation to
make such vast step toward keeping
a citizen army prepared to defend the
nation.
Urges Students to Join Guards.
General Wolters also urged the
students to Join eithe: the National
Guard or the organized reserve corps
when they complete their training in
the C. NJ. T. c. He told them to get
into one of the lines of defense and
ever be ready to defend the nation.
In concluding he said:
II have been assoc. .ted with Off
GERS of the regular army for 20 years
and l have never been associated any
where with finer set of men. You
will find that they are straighter,
sauarer. and more to the point than
any men you have dealt with. They
give you instruction straight to the
point, and as you learn to know them
you will like that type of instruction
more and more. You will find that
they are far better set of instructors
than you have found in your school
rooms.
"Now, we are all for peace. We
want no war, but the best way to in
sure a lasting peace is to have a citi-
zen soldiery that is trained and ready
to go to war at any time. So long as
our country has citizen army, trained
and educated as to the rights and
wrongs of nations, any tyrant who has
become blinded with ambition for his
personal ACCOMPLISHMENT will think
twice before he runs amuck.'

JUDGE {. B. PARKER
HEADS CLAIM BODY
Named to Succeed Ex.Jus-
tice Day, Who Resigned
as Umpire.

Judge Edwin B. Parker of Texas
member Of the mixed claims
was appointed yesterday
by President Harding to succeed for
mer Justice Day of the Supreme
Court, whose resignation as umpire
of the commission was presented, he
said, because he believed a younger
and stronger man should serve.
President Harding is expected
shortly to appoint an American to f1ll
the vacancy caused by promotion of
Judge Parker.
In the preparation of the. volumin-
Gus detail relating to the thousands
of American claims before the COM
mission a typographical error in the
official reports indicated that Herbert
Hoover. Secretary of Commerce, was
interested. The official list gave
"Herbert Hoover & Sons Company"
as a claimant of 500 for property in
Germany. This caused Secretary
Hoover to give out a statement de-
claring that neither I nor any con-
nection OF mine has made such q
claim officials explained that the
incident was due to a typographical
or clerical error, the claim really be-
ing presented by Joseph Hoover &

Otis, Black and Ware. the latter dead,
lying outside the door of Sayes bed

Reserves were summoned as Thorn
as Wolfe, deputy chief of police, re-

was not found. Finally an open
trapdoor in the ceiling of a hallway
was discovered. Warning his men 10

sent TO headquarters for tear bombs.
The deputy himself tossed the
bombs through the aperture leading
into the attic, then Withdrew. Shortly
afterward Sayes started to chamber
down. AS officers rushed forward to

GOVERNOR SHOWS
STATES ADVANCE
North Carolina Spending Big
Sum on Schools and Roads,
Says Morrison.

Gov Cameron Morrison of North
Carolina contrasted the progress and
advancement Of that state as made In
the last few years to the reputed
backwardness and lack of social and
civic development of a few years ago,
at a reception and dance of the North
Carolina Society of Washington at
the wardmnn Park Hotel last night.
The occasion was held in cele-
bration OF the Mecklenburg Declare
ton of independence, which was in
the form of several resolutions passed
at a convention held at midnight in
the county of Mecklenburg. N. C.,
May 20. ITS, declaring the county
free and independent of the British
crown.
Gov. Morrison told the society that
$65,0OO,000 had been raised, through
the issuance of bonds. for road build
ing and outlined. briefly. some of tho
territory covered by the highw avs
now completed and told Of many other
fine roads under construction.
We have roads better than most
of the streets in Washington. he
said The educational facilities of
the state. he pointed out. have been
greatly increased. The sum OF xl1.-
1000 has been appropriated for
schools of all kinds and many OF
the schools ami institutions OF the
state are now second to none, he
declared.
Praises Governors Work.
The speaker was introduced by
Robert II. Mcneil. Eugene F. Hart
ley, president of the society, referred
to Gov. Morrison as "the ono man
who could have accomplished what
has been done in the way of improve
ments in the state in the last few
years"
Others on the platform were Col.
Terry A. Lyon. secretary and treas

will. however great the blow TO his
ambitions. The fact that the pecu-
liar circumstances of the present time
make him, as peer, practically In
eligible to the premiership is ex-

from his country PLACE at 2 o'clock
this afternoon and representative

Acquaint him with the party decision.
When Mr.. Baldwin returned TO the
official residence of the premier in
Downing street after being closeted
with the king for an hour he told the
reporters that any official statement
concerning the premiership must
come from buckingham Palace. New
ertheless. he gave them the news by
saying: II need your prayers rather
than your congratulations.
Confers With Curzon.
The public was not prepared FOR
such a sudden climax to the situa-
ton and there were no crowds In
Downing street or outside the palace.
as on the eventful day only seven
summoned to the presence of the
king. An incident typical OF the
changing times and growing disrc-
gard for the old formalities was seen
when Mr.. Baldwin went to the palace
to receive the announcement of his
lnajesty's pleasure in an ordinary
taxicab. He did not, however. forget
the frock coat and silk hat of tradi-
ton. s
1t is generality Understood. that the
king, through his secretary, Lord
StamfordhAIn, consulted Lord Curzon
before appointing Mr. Baldwin as
premier. The nature of their con-
sultation is, of course, not publicly
known, but IT is believed that Lord
Curzon was asked if he was willing
to abandon his own claims to the
post and serve under Baldwin. He is
understood to have agreed to con-
tinue as foreign secretary in the new
cabinet.
Law Has Good Night.
Mr.. Bonar Law had a very good
night. His condition Is unchanged.
No further bulletins will be issued at
present"
This statement was issued after the
former prime minister's physicians
had visited him today.
Mr.. Bonar Law has written a. let
ter to the Glasgow unionists in which
he says he desires to continue as a
member of the house of commons. He
presumes there is no objection to his
remaining as the member for Glas-
gov central division for the present,
although he adds that it Is very un-
likely he will be able to attend this
session of parliament.
