third great schism in the Christian

third great schism in the Christian
world.
The ITtherans in the various
countries of the world have always
been separate in organization and
were never united externally in any
common purpose. The woe and suf-
fering of the world war, however,
brought the different sections of the
church together through the agencies
of relief and succor and ever since
then there has been developing a
Lutheran world consciousness which
found expression in the ecumenical
convention.
Two hundred delegates gathered
at the convention and represented
the religious and ecclesiastical in
terests of the Lutheran world con-
stituency and these interests are
great in magnitude alone when one
considers that there are more
Lutherans than all the remainder of
the Protestants of the world COM
bined.
We live in a day when it is quite
customary for organizations of
similar significance to unite for
larger purposes and accomplish
ments. 1t is interesting in view Of
this to note that one of the subjects
discussed at the Lutheran world con-
vention was the matter of church
unity. A constituency so great and
confessing a common religious faith
could be of much greater moral and
spiritual uplift if it could concen-
trate through a centeral organiza-
ton.

U. S. GUNB0AT PREVENTS
BLOCKADE IN CHINA
Monacacy Replies to Fire of Gen.
Chow's Troops, Keeping River
Open to Traffic.

A brief account of the recent firing
by Chinese forces on the American
gunboat Monocacy was received by
the State Department yesterday in a
oablegram from the legation at
Peking forwarding the report Of the
Of the Yangtze patrol.
The message said that on July %
the commander reported that Gen.
Chow, commanding the Kweichow
troops and guarding the right bank
of the river opposite Chungking, had
revolted on July IL and taken Kaing-
pei, thereby. cutting or Chungking
from down river.
Gen. Chow's troops" 1t continued,
ION July 20 fred on the steamship
Alice Dollar while she was on her
way to Chungking. When the Alice
Dollar departed on July 21 she was
escorted by the American gunboat
Monocacy. Lieut.. Commander Nelson
both the Alice Dollar and the
Monocacy were fired upon. The
Monocacy returned the fire with her
battery.
This attack upon the American flag
was wholly unjustified and unprovoked.
"The American gunboat Palos re-
ported on July % that conditions
were normal ats sChungking. and that
Gen.. Chow Hsi Cheng had retreated
to Kweichow. 1t would appear that
the action taken by the Monocacy
had defeated forcible attempt to es.
tablish an Illegal blockade of the
river, the result of which would have
been the cutting off of the foreign
community in Chungking."

FORMER POLICE JUDGE
APPEARS AS COUNSEL
Robert Hardison Argues for Quash.
ing Reckless Driving Charge
and Is Overruled.

Robert Hardison, former police
judge, argued a motion yesterday in
Traffic Court before Judge Schuldt to
quash an information against Charles
A. Grifflths, charged with reckless
driving. The court overruled the mo-
ton.
Judge Hardison said the regulation
which provides that no vehicle shall
be driven or operated so as to endan-
ger life or limb or the safety of prop
erty was indefinite and fixed no
standard or rule upon which the ques-
tion of what is endangering life, limb
or property and was therefore void,
the court being without judicial right
to determine just what constitutes
the danger. Numerous authorities
were quoted to sustain the argument
Judge Schuldt said he had gone deep
ly into the matter and had found that
the law on reckless driving in Illinois,
Nebraska, Colorado and California
was Identical with that under which
the information was drawn in the
Griffiths case and that the upper
courts had held such a law does define
what Is reckless driving. The case
will now come up on its merits for
trial.

On the Street

The girls are chasing in the street,
may heaven bless their little feet
In olden times the little maids
eschewed the midnight street pa
rades; in quiet homes they spent
their nights, enjoying safe and sane
delights; they read good books that
soothed the soul, and played game
of crokinole; at seemly hours they
sought the hay and slept the peace
full hours away. And if at night a
damsel fair desired to journey any
where there always was a stately
aunt who by her side would gal
livant, and guard her from the
masher's vile, the hoodlum's stare
and sinners guile But times have
changed, and at this date each girls
the master of her fate: if she elects
to roam the street, and elbow Mike
and firt with Pete. there is no guar
dian aunt on deck to take her gently
by the neck and run her home with
kindly tact, and there declaim the
riot act. The morning papers we
peruse, and shudder at the dark red
news. The tough and hoodlum ply
their trades; the victims oft are
winsome maids; who gambol up and
down the street, and elbow Mike
and flirt with Pete. And we bewail
the good old days, the sheltered
homes, the quiet ways, the girls as
sweet as growing plants, who walk
ed at evening with their aunts:

yer loving cup, obtained by Capt. John

without a spirited contest. for on the
first firing he tied with Chief Quar-
termaster J. f. Mettee.
The vessel left Quantico early today,
after the men had been called out
shortly after daybreak. Quick work
was made of scrubbing down and clean
ing up the crews compartments, and
Capt Blood gave the command which

NATION FOR MODEL
D. C. SCHOOL SYSTEM
Sentiment Reflected in Resolution
Adopted by N. E. A. at Cali
fornia Session.

That the schools of the District
should be the example for the coun-
try is the view, not only of those
who live in Washington. but of the
varied educational interests of the
country. This is evidenced by the
fact that the National Education AS
sociation unanimously adopted the
following resolution at the repre-
sentative assembly of the associa-
tion at Oakland. Calf, recently:
I'VE should be able to find in the
city of Washington, the capital of
the nation, leadership in matters
concerning school administration,
supervision, teaching, business man.
agement. and for the PRONUNCIATION
of a far-seeing and adequate edu-
cational program for city schools.
The schools of the Capital city be-
long to the nation and for this rea-
son we urge Congress to create a
Board of Education for the City of
Washington. which shall be abso-
lutely free from party control, which
shall have entire control of its ffnan-
cial budget, and which shall have an
adequate financial income to main
tain schools Of which the nation may
be proud"
