'REALTORS" EAGER
| TO PROTECT NAME
District Man Finds Vigilance
Exercised All Over
! Country.

: Realtors throughout the country
are consistently watchful in protect
Ing their professional title, tn, coined
word "realtor." according to David q.
Barry, chairman of the vigilance COM
mittee of the Washington Real Estate
Board, who has just returned from an
extended trip after the recent Clevc-
land convention.
Mr.. Barry visited Buffalo, Cleve-
land. Detroit and Chicago and while
in these cities made a special investi-
cation of the activities of real estate
boards in respect to the work Of
vigilance committees. Practically
every board in the country maintains
q special committee whose duty 1t is
to be ever on the watch for sharp
practices and unethical dealings by
any one engaged in the real estate
business.
The Washington committee has
made special effort during the past
year to protect the title "realtor."
which is a coined word adopted by
the National Association of Real
Estate Boards for the use of its MEM
bers only. This title serves to tden-
lily the DTOkcI dS d IiicIIlDcE VI Liz
Washington Real Estate Board who
has voluntarily accepted the prin-
ciples of ethics and fair dealing that
underlie the purposes of the local
board. During his visits in several
cities Mr.. Barry stated that as was
the custom in Washington members
of the boards in each city uniformly
advertised the fact that they are af-
filiated with the local board and con-
sistently use the title "realtor" on
their stationery. show windows and
In their advertisements.
Through the vigilant efforts of
Chairman Barry and his committee.
the local board reports that there is
no misuse of the title "realtor" in
Washington and that the members
of the Washington board are con-
ststently adhering to the practice of
showing their afflliation with the
board by the use of this title.
In an effort to promote the univer-
sal use of this title throughout the
misuse the National Association of
Real Estate Boards recently adopted
an insignia that will be used as a
trade mark by the national associa :
tion, member boards and Individual
realtors throughout the country.
. This insignia was designed in the
FORM of a seal showing a small cut
; of model house and the word
"realtor" implanted in the center of
the title of the national associa ton.
Cuts of this new seal are now being
distributed Throughout the country
and it is expected 1t will shortly be
adopted universally by all those af-
fliated with the national association

SUBSIDY GIVES
PLACE TO DEBT
'REFUNDINC ACT
Senate Votes to Put Off
Subsidy; Harding in
Ultimatum
By United Pres.

WASHINGTON, Feb. l3.-The
senate today voted to lay aside the
ship subsidy bill in favor OF the
British debt settlement measure,
This action is generally construed
to mean the death of ship sibsidy
legislation unless it's opponents later
agree to permit reviving it.
~ President Harding was prepared
to sidetrack the ship subsidy legls-
lation to insure the passage OF the
British debt funding measure and
entrusted the matter to Senator
Jones, in charge Of the subsidy bill.
He was informed by Senators Lodge
and Watson that it is impossible to
secure a vote for both bills this ses-
sion and little chance of getting the
ship subsidy bin through at all.
President Harding had earlier is
sued an ultimatum today saying he
would accept no compromise on the
ship subsidy bill. The president is
very much opposed to the Madden
amendment which provides that ship
ping boards shall appeal to congress
for annual appropriation.

BATES CASE NOW
THING OF PAST
OFFICIALS SAY
Fresno Officer Not Held
by Grand Jury When
Witnesses Heard

1t is understood that no indict-
ment will be returned Dy the grand
jury against d. p. Bates, Fresno
policeman, who was accused of hav-
ing conspired with. Dave Polin to
release the latter from custody, after
he had been turned over to the eff
Ger by the Calexico police for trans
mission. to Fresno, where he was
wanted on bigamy charge.
When Bates was first arrested
last December, the charges against
him were dismissed by Frank B. Err
finger, at that time deputy district
attorney, following an investigation
into the actions of the Fresno Off
Ger, which convinced Erzinger that
the latter had at all times acted in
good faith and in what hebelieved
to be the best interests of the Fres.
no police department.
..o Markey Issued Warrant
Shortly after Bates return to
Fresno, he was arrested by Imperial
County Officers on warrant issued
by G. =. Markey, justice Of the
peace at CalexicO, and sworn to bv
Joe Hardwick, chief of the Calexico
police. Bates was. brought to Calex.
leo. for q preliminary hearing, which
resulted in. his being ordered held
for the superior court under bonds
of $4,000. While waiting. for this
case to be heard, the grand jury took
up the matter, and the complaint
against Bates was, in the meantime,
dismissed.
The Bates ease was the first to
be investigated by the new 1928
grand jury following its formation
February 5, and at that time Chief
Hardwiek, Justice Markey and sew
eral other Calexico and Mexicali
Officers appeared before the jury to
give evidence. Last Friday Bates
