RAID D|SCLOSES
CAUSEOF JOY
PARTIES.
Quantity of Liquor and Large
Still Are Seized at Arlington
Beach Concession,

Frolicking beach parties at Airing
ton Beach, lasting until the small
hours Of the morning, have long
perplexed Virginia authorities. The
fact that liquor served as the in
spiration for most of these events
was unearthed Sunday when raid
was made on concession stand.
1t is said that a 60-gallon still and
five gallons of alleged corn liquor
were found hidden in box, covered
with loaves of bread. George PappaS
and George Nicholson, said to have
been proprietors of the stand, were
arrested by Sheriff A. C. Clements,
charged with selling, illegal posses
sion and manufacturing of intox-
icants. They were released on 81 900
bond.
Hilarious beach parties in which it
is said various characters, such as
Adam and Eve and Cleopatra played
important roles, caused the inVestl-
CATION. How they got that way on
soda water was too much for the
sheriff.
1t is said that dozens Of Washing
ton motorists sought the beach at
night, long after the lights had been
put out and the resort closed. Re-
ports have gone out that bathing
parties, in which the bathers WEI 9
prone to trust to the kindly dimness
Of an obscured moon to cloak them,
were frequent. Now, the sheriff
says, all will be quiet on the POtO-
mac, at least so far as Arlington
Beach is concerned

REAL j. 8.
BEAUTY
Washington Chosen As Place
for Final Contest-VieWs
Of Noted Painters.

"The real American girl" was not
represented at the annual choosing
of Americas most beautiful bathing
girl at Atlantic. City, last week, ac-
cording to Penrhyn Stanlaws, chair
man Of the selection committee, who
threatened to quit on that account.
These so-called beauty contests
should be held in, the fall or winter
season when schools and colleges are
open and when the summer girl is
back in town." said Walter Cox,
famous portrait painter of this city,
who has taken an artists interest
in the contest.
The society girl, the college girl
and those who spend their sum-
mers away from the city at the sea-
shore or in the mountains, according
to e. Hodgson Smart, another cele-
brated portrait painter, whose
paintings Of the late President Hard
ing, General Foch and General
Pershing have become famous, are
not given a fair chance at these con-
tests.
1.-THE real American. beauty" said
Smart, has not yet been found, and
will not be discovered until this an
nual competition is regarded from
a purely artistic standpoint and con-
Quoted accordingly. The society girl,
the college girl, the athletic girl and
all those who heretofore have re-
Trained from entering these competi-
tons should be invited to partici-
pate"
The Washington Salon and United
Arts Society, Of which Rudolphe de
Zapp A the president, is making ar
rangements to hold this coming sea-
son beauty concourse of the char
acter described by Smart and Cox
and as requested by Penrhyn Stan
laws.
Invitations will be specifically ex-
tended to society, colleges, academies
and other finishing schools to take
part.
Leading photographers will be
asked to select from their own large
list of patrons the names of those
ladies who, in their opinion DIS
artists, should be asked to enter such
a contest.
Art societies in other cities will be
invited by the local salon society to
arrange for similar contests and to
report the results to the local or
ganization.
At the close of the competition,
the winners in the various cities will
be invited to come to Washington on
a day to be designated where an in
ternational jury of noted artists will
render final judgment as to "The
Real American Beauty"

GRADECROSSING
DEATHSSHOW
INCREASE
Pennsy Reports That More
Than Double Usual Number
Were Killed This July.

Despite all warnings against
recklessness, especially on the part
of automobile drivers, fatal accl-
dents at grade crossings on the
Pennsylvania Railroad more tnan
doubled during July, as compared
with the corresponding month OF
the previous year. This s brought
out in a report of the company's
insurance department which shows
that in July, 1923, there were forty
six persons killed and thirty-nlne IN
jured. in grade crossing casualties
as compared with twenty-one per.
sons killed and thirty-five injured
in July, 1922.
The increase in fatalities was 11S
per cent. In one instance nine per-
sons were killed in a single auto
mobile, in another four were killed,
and there were three accidents in
each of which three persons were
killed.
For safety reasons, the report
says, the railroads do not permit
any one excepting those on duty TO
ride with a locomotive engineer,
and persons who have business on
engines are forbidden to distract
his attention. It is frequently seen
that automobiles and trucks are
filled to capacity and the drivers
are so crowded that access to the
brakes and gear shift lever is inn
peded; the conditions under such cir
cumstances may be so distracting
that when an emergency arises, a
crash is likely to occure as a result
of this interference. If similar con-
ditions existed on passenger loco
motives disastrous wrecks would
probably be as numerous as crossing
accidents.

CHIRTS and stiff collars to match
~ of white with colored lined checks
are quite popular just now, and it
seems to the writer these shirts go
we'll with a dark mohair suit with an
invisible white stripe.
Let us suppose, at all events a man
has one of these shirts. The founda-
ton color is white and the thin lines
making the checks are either cobalt
blue, sort of French blue, or green,
with collar to match. These collars,
incidentally, are comfortable to wear
because they require little starch to
maintain their stiff appearance, dis
tinct advantage in the Summer time
So he wears this shirt with his two
piece mohair.
He relieves the comparative SOM
breness of mis- suit by putting on
white linen washable tie with pat
tern of large blue and green dia-
mond checks, being careful to see
that the shade of blue in the tie
matches the shade on his shirt, or the
green, as the case may be. Likewise
his handkerchief will be white with
harmonizing blue or green border.
= He has probably long ago discov-
cred that in Summer a Isle sock IS
more comfortable than silk, so he
picks out a pair of dark blue Isle
socks with thin widely-spaced light
blue circular stripes and over them
wears a pair of plain black oxford
shoes and reaches for his straw hat
with black band as he hurries to
catch his train to go to work.

To Act On Police Raise

Action on the request of the police department members for increases in salary is anticipated for the Tuesday meeting of the city council, as the police commission has discussed the matter for several weeks and is about ready to report. Increased cost of living Is assigned in the police petition for the increased wages for the re- quest. In New Britain, the police committee decided recently to buy the police clothing, thus relieving the members of the department Of a heavy annual expense. The increases proposed here vary but the maximum raise amounts to a total of sis a week for the older members of the force.

CALLS UPON MASS.
 ID BACK COOLIDGE
WadsWOrth Predicts His NOmina-
 ton and Election in 1924

Boston, Dec 17-EXpressing confi- dence that the republicans will be re- turned to power next November and that President Coolidge will be elect ed 10 succeed himself, Eliot Ways worth, assistant secretary of the treas ury, told the Massachusetts Women's Republican club at a luncheon today that Massa achusetts must contribute its full share toward election of its form CT governor.
 The treasury official went at some length into the nations finances, re- lating that the public debt had been reduced, declaring that operating ex- penses of the government had ben cut each year during the republican administration and asserting that the people of the United States are about to benefit from the program of econ omy and efficiency through the Mel lon tax reduction policy. The results. said MT Wadsworth, speak for them selves and constitute record of work well done on which to ask re- election"
 Tn November, 1924" he predicted, the Voters, not only will put into off, flee for four years a chief executive who, with a cabinet of his own selec- tion, will administer the affairs of the United States, but will also elect the congress and one-third of the sena- tors. have the greatest confidence that a republican president win be elected and that he will be Calvin | Coolidge, of Massachusetts.
 Urges Organization.
 MT. Wadsworth urged the republl- ! cans of the state to begin their organ l ization activities at once. saying they | had greater incentive than heretofore. | with a Massachusetts man in the i White House for the first time since | John Quincy Adamas was president | in 1S25-29."
 Election of q republican senator fram Massachusetts as a colleague for . the veteran Senator Lodge also was . advocated by Mir Wadsworth, who de- plored that states representation in the senate for six years had been one for and one against almost every is- sue presented. He said he expected that even on the question of tax re- vision Mir. Lodge would vote in sup port of the treasury's program, but that Senator Walsh, democrat, would oppose it.
 The administrators efforts to cur tail expenses and reduce the cost of government were recounted by the speaker in pointing to the surplus Of more than $500, 0,0o0,000 with which the treasury has finished each of the last two years.
 And now" he added. Secretary Mellon has announced that it is safe to reduce income by a cut in the taxes. Could anything be more well come at the present time than the news that taxes can be reduced with out danger to our financial structure The problem or how and when is in the hands bf congress"
