PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Nov. 30
Three motor car bandits carly to-
day robbed John M Seltzer, threw
him from their speeding car and
escaped from police amid a hail of
bullets, after they had knocked a
detective from the running board
of their car in a hand to hand fight.
Shortly afterwards, the bandit car
ran out of gasoline, and its
occupants held up a taxicab, beat
and robbed the driver and then
drove off in his cab.
Police took up the chase and after

to abandon the taxi and scatter.

Of COOLIDGE
MODELLED
Moses Dykaar Also Is CompIet-
ing One of Presidents
Wife.

The first reproduction in sculp-
tural art of President Coolidge has
just been finished The piece is a
large life-size bust of the Chief
Executive done in marble by Moses
Dykaar, a Russian artist who
studied art in Paris under French
masters. He has been in this
country but a few years.
Dykaar has made a numLar of
bronzes and marble portrait busrs
of welI-known men, among them
being one of Justice Stafford of
the District Supreme Court and Di-
rector Walcott, of the National
Museum.
The bust Of the President will be
placed in the Senate gallery where,
as Vice President, he presided over
the deliberations Of that body.
President Posed Daily.
Dykaar, who speaks English with
a decided foreign accent, has been
over two months. An improVised
studio on the top floor Of the
White House served for the pur-
pose and President Coolidge gave
the artist two half-hour periods
every day until the bust was COM
pleted.
''The President is an ideal model"
said Dykaar yesterday" and while
posing he often signified desire
to know more about art, particular
ly sculpture. 1t was a shock to
me at times to see President Cool
idge, looking completely worn out,
coming for his sittings. He then
looked fully ten years older and
seemed like another man."
A bust of Mrs. Coolidge may soon
be expected, according to the artist,
who said that he was working on it
now.
Sees Great Future Here.
Speaking of the future of art in
America, Dykaar grew enthusiastic
and said that the worlds only hope
for art lay in this country which,
before many years, would be the
worlds greatest art center and that
the majority Of the worlds great art
treasures finally would find their
way into American museums and
private collections. He said the
greatest American sculptor, in his
opinion, is Frederick William Mac
Monnies, the sculptor of "Civic
Virtue" which aroused such a storm
Of opposition when it was placed in
the city hall place in New York.

Admiral e. w. Eberle, chief Of

high tribute to the historical photo

REUTER- AGENCY
CALLED TOOL

British Press Hints News Serv-
ice Spreads French
Propaganda.
BY International News Service.

LONDON, Nov. 30.-Strong hints
were made by the British press to-
day that the Reuter- Agency, which
is general regarded as semi Off
cial" has been utilized as a tool
for spreading French propaganda.
The British foreign office issued
formal denial of a statement cir.
culated by Reuters Thursday eve.
ming that Germany is arming and
training military forces in excess of
the Versailles treaty.
Immediately after the "exnose''
was printed the foreign office ad-
Vlsed all inquirers not to credit the
news agency's report. The formal
denial was issued shortly afterward.
The Daily Express demands that
Reuters reveal the source of their
information, adding:
The story appears to have all
the elements of propaganda"
The Daily Graphic commented:
1t appears like French propa-
ganda."
The Manchester Guardian. fore
most liberal newspaper outside of
London. said:
Some mischievous influences are
trying to buttress French policy
during the Anglo-French crisis"
The Rothermere newspapers, for
merly the Northcliffe pressJ pub
lished the Reuter- statement in
conspiciously.
A representative of the Reuter-
agency refusedto reveal the source
OF the information, but denied that
it was French.

this moment disclosed to be as fol-
lows:
1. Most of the Republican mem
bers of the progressive group" are
opposed to the foreign policy of the
Democrats.
2. Most OF them are in need of local
support in their States from their
Republican home organizations.
8. The Democrats themselves are
still in doubt as to whether they
would care to control the Senate at
this time.
1t is not thought today that these
impediments can be overcome; and
it is believed accordingly that the
Republican members of the "pro-
gressive group" will be obliged to
negotiate as best they can directly
and simply with the leaders Of the
regular Republican majority.
Certain of those leaders may be
willing to make some promises in re-
turn for strong progressive support
against certain Of the President j
recommendations; but there seems
little likelihood today of any Sena-
torial resolution due to any pro
gressive group" action.
The storm may rise again but al
this moment the regular Republicans
think that the sky is clear.
