JUSTICE H0EHLING
MAKES STERN DEBUT
First Sentence, Acting as Grim
lnal Judge, Sends Prisoner
Up for Year.

The first sentence to be imposed by
Justice Adolph A. Hoehling, who Is
serving for the first time in the Grim
inal Court, was a term of one wear
at Occoquan. Miles Clark. colored,
ntty-four years old, was the recipient.
clark was quarreling with his wife
and Thomas ]. Jones, at whose house
ne was rooming, interferred. Later
Clark saw Jones sitting in the ward
and, taking shot gun, pointed it out
OF the window and shot Jones. Clark
was employed as a laborer and had
good record, but Probation officer
steele reported against probation.
The second prisoner to appear for
sentence this morning before Justice
Hoehling was Otto C. Hockins, nine
teen years old. wearing the uniform
OF a Marine. The boy had held up
the clerk of small hotel on Pennsyl-
Vania avenue and had taken a pocket
book containing SIS. He was given
term of two years in the peniten-
tiary.
Others sentenced by Justice Hoeb-
ing were Clarence Jones, colored,
Two years for housebreaki king and
samuel Morton, colored, one year for
grand larceny
Frank ]. Reagan, white, fifty-seven
years old. was placed on probation
Tor term of two years Reagan,
while drunk, visited the X. of c. hall
during an initiation ceremony and
picked UP a package containing cash
and valuableS which Thomas J.

Two Stand Out.
At this hour McAdoo and Under
wood are admitted to be the two
democratic candidates farthest out
In front, and, If the nominating cor
Ventton were to be held at once, they
Gov. "Al" Smith continues to be a
prime factor In the democratic situ-
alton. While his nomination, as al
ways. Is doubted. because of religious
considerations. his strength is yet re-
garded formidable enough to have
eventually cast: There is talk of bal
ancing a NcAdoo dry" ticket with
a wet" vice presidential nomination
IN the person of Gov. George N Sill
Ger of New Jersey. Silzer is not
sopping wet" like "AI' Smith or
enough to provide a useful dilution
Tor ticket. the head of which Is
bone-dry. The democrats are per-
suaded they'll have to meet the pro-
hipitfon issue In decisive and perhaps
in embarrassing form in 1924. Their
convention is bound to be the scene
or bitter forensic duel over the
liquor plan. Also the Ku Klux Khan
issue looms as menacing one with
the squabble at the American Legion
convention in San Francisco as a
forerunner of what's likely to happen.
Prominent Roman Catholic democrats
declare the party will not be permit
ted to dodge the Klan proposition,
but will be asked TO condemn the
hluxers unequivocally, outright and
by name.
The re-emergence of the Ford boom
fires the democrats with mixed emo
tions. Some of them think a Ford
third-party ticket would hurt the re-
publicans; others are equally certain
1T would injure only the democrats.

OF TABERNACLE
WILL Be CELEBRATED

The Feast of Ingathering, known
also as the Feast of Tabernacles or
Succoth, will be observed for one
week beginning Monday evening,
September gath, the concluding day
being Tuesday October End.
Following SO close upon the great
religious holydays of the synagog
the harvest feast attracts less atten-
ton than it intrinsically merits. For,
despite its primitive origin and agri-
cultural setting Succoth is capable of
yielding the modern worshipper So
Der joy and a spiritually enhearten-
ing message.
It's Biblical basis is Deuteronomy
16:13-14 where it is said: 'Thout
shalt keep the Feast of Tabernacles
seven days after that thou hast
gathered in from thy threshing floor
and from thy winepress. And thou
shalt rejoice in thy feast, thou, and
thy son, and thy daughter, and thy
man-servant and thy maid servant
and the Levite, and the stranger,
and the fatherless, and the widow
hat are within thy gates" Refer
ence to the Feast of Tabernacles is
also made in Leviticus 23:34-43, and
in other parts of the Pentateuch.
That our national Thanksgiving
udy is directly patterned on IulS an
Glen. harvest festival of Israel ad-
mits no longer of dispute or doubt.
The Pilgrim Fathers being earnest
and devout scripture readers trans
ferred the harvest festival of Israel
to our own American environment.
In ancient Israel this harvest feast
was of great Importance. People in
large numbers wended their way to
the central sanctuary in Jerusalem
bearing palms and fruits. The pro-
cession become in course of time a
Pilgrimage Feast and was so known
in later years. In connection with
the celebration of this festival pray
ers were offered for rain and dew.
There is an obscure reference to
this custom in the last chapter of
Zechariah. The popular outburst of
Joy there mentioned is echoed

that the coming convention ask the
next legislature to change the cleo
ton law so that the state commit
tee may be enlarged and its mem
bership be made to include each

twenty-one members at large, thus
creating a state committee of one

ed members Of the party in the

In each county now the chair
