DOG MUzzL|NG
ALL YEAR IS
URGED
$50 Persons Bitten Since July
1 Last Year-Little Chill
dren Victims.

Dogs running at large without a
muzzle are a menace to the entire
community, particularly to small
children, DIR. William C. Fowler,
District health officer, told Commits
sioner Oyster today in recommend
ing an all-year-round muzzling law.
ut is fully realized that a general
muzzling order Ia unpopular and
disapproved by many dog owners, .
he said, ''yet in view of the increas-
ing number of persons bitten by
dogs in this city during the past
year, I feel that some steps should
be taken to protect the citizens
from these biting dogs"
Attitude of Commissioners.
DR.. Fowler pointed out that since
July /, 1922, 336 persons have been
bitten by dogs in the District. com
pared to 270 for the same period
the previous year.
It is not expected. however, that
the District Commissioners will
Share the same views as Dr. Fow-
Ter. The Commissioners probably
will make the rnuzzling order effec-
tive for three months, beginning
July 9.
DIR. Fowler, in his recommends
ton, says:
During the period since July /,
1922, the bodies of forty dogs pre-
senting clinical symptoms Of rabies
were sent to the Bureau of Animal
Industry, Department of Agricul-
ture, for examination, with the re-
suit that tWenty-one of these dogs
were found to be suffering from
rabies at the time of death.
I'm the case of sixteen persons
bitten, the animals doing the biting
were found to be suffering from
rabies at the time.
During the period that the muz-
zling law was in effect last year
from July to October 8, liz per-
sons were bitten, and ten of the
dogs were found to have rabies;
while from October 10, 1922, to
June 5, 1923, 213 other persons were
bitten, and during this same period,
eleven dogs were found to be suf-
fering from rabies"

MOntrnartre To Have
Dispensary For
Children
BY ALICE LANGELIER,
international News Service.

PARIS, June 11.-Willette,
the well-known artist and
mayor of the gay little re-
public of Montmartre, has just
laid the cornerstone of the new
dispensary for the ''petits
Poulbots."
The little Poulbots are the
little ragamufins of the Butte
who have become famous to
everyone through the quaint
drawings of this artist. They
are not always clean, poor
things, but they are always
cunning and attractive, like all
French children, and they need
all the good things the dis
pensary is going to furnish
them. There will be clothes
as well as medicine, food as
well as cough syrup, and milk
a-plenty in order that these un-
fortunate homeless children
may grow up to be good,
strong citizens of Montmartre
and France.

BUCKETSHOP
BUCKET SHOP
GUDGEONS
Brokerage Firm Failures on
Wall Street Recall Tales
Court Records Tell.
BY WILLIAM RANDORF,
CoarnnnnIitan News Service.

NEW YORK, June II. - Scented,
silk-clad women of society, gay-eyed,
be-plumed women of the Broadway
cabarets, rouge-ipped women deni-
zens of the race track, and the derni-
monde figure prominently in the
background of the many recent fail
ures of Wall Street bucket shops and
brokers, with millions of dollars
loss to investors.
With the financial district today
still staggering from the latest blow,
the crash of L. L. Winkelman & Co.,
one of the largest curb brokers, with
admitted liabilities of $1,750,00 and
claimed assets of $500. 900, there
emerges a picture Of fast living and
gambling which seems to link many
failed brokers and bucket-shop keep
erS.
Ponies, Cards, Girls.
The ponies, the crooked cards. -
girls-that is the way the millions
Of many thousands of defrauded in
vestors seem to have gone.
Generous spending of the men in
Wall Street was revealed some
months ago in the case of Angus K.
Nicholson, partner in the Winkel-
man firm. He brought criminal
proceedings against beautiful Nal
vina Richman, who. he claimed,
lured him to her Riverside drive
apartment. stripped him of jewelry
and cash and made him sign a large
check. Her story was that he in
sisted on staying at her house, an
unlimited guest. There were stories
told in the case of the night life of
the Gay White Way and of drinks
procured from bootleggers.
'"Pink Pajama Girl
Then Edward M. Fuller, now in
Jail with his partner, MCGEE, sum
moned pretty Nellie Black, once
known as the Pink Pajama Girl, p"
to court on charge of threatening
his life. Many of the victims of
the Fuller crash recall the story
told by Miss Black of huge sums
lavished on her by Fuller while they
were living as man and wife. One
day, she said she had gone to him,
not to threaten his life, but to find
out why he was spending large
sums on another woman.
The name of Gertrude Vanderbilt
figured as the recipient of checks
from a member of Dillon & Co..
which went to the wall about a
year ago.
The peoples money flows to these
houses from all parts of the coun-
try for investment in Wall Street.
And the public is realizing it has
only too often been mulcted by the
brokers who were the "fall guys"
for the women on whom they spend
money.

MODERN VIEWS
SCORED BY
SPEAKER
Father Cox Tells Georgetown
Seniors to EscheW Unsound
Doctrines.

THE world has lost all real sense
of Values the Rev. Ignatius Wiley
Cox, s. j.. professor of logic at
Fordham, declared yesterday in his
baccalaureate sermon before seniors
of Georgetown University who are
about to seek leadership in the
world.
This is because it has expert
mented with and practically adopted
the unsound philosophers which,.
explaining only part of human
life and activity, will ever remain
lopsided in theory and topheavy in
practice, and blighting in their re-
suits continued Father Cox.
The speaker warned the George
town seniors that they are going
into a world that hates the triple
code of Georgetown as bitterly as
the Soviet hates Christianity"
Modern philosophy" continued
DR.. Cox, has plucked from the
heart of man his dreams, his aspi-
rations, his ideals Man once had
faith in the family ideal, and that
faith is faltering. Women once had
hope in children, and that hope is
being blighted. Men and women
once believed and hoped in holy
everlasting love, and license is wor-
SHIPPED in its stead.
'aThe world was never more in
need of men of faith. Europe il
damned to today because it has
lost practical faith in a Christian
code It yielded to the triple temp
tation. And Europe will be forever
damned unless she can bring forth
as leaders men of faith.
Father Cox took as his text from
st. Luke: sSimoni Simoni Behold
Satan hath desired to have you that
he may sift thee as wheat. But
I have prayed that my faith fall
not, and you, being once converted,
confirm your brethren
Assembling iii the college walks,
the faculties of the university,
headed by President John B. Cree
den, the seniors of all the depart
ments and visiting alumni marched
to Dalghren chapel in the Quad
rangle, where mass were celebrated
in honor of the 124th commence
ment. The Rev. John Dixon. min
lister of the college, was the cele-
brant. The deacon was the Rev.
Francis x. Doyle. and the sub
deacon, the Rev. Joseph Brown.
The masters of ceremonies were
Martin Maloney, of the senior col
lege class, and the Rev. John e..
Grattan. Leo Harvey was cross
bearer; Thomas White and James
Fl. Grove, jr., acolytes, and Law
renee r. Elligott and Charles
O'Byrne, censor bearers.

FOOTBALL BEATING OUT
BULL-FIGHTING IN SPAIN

Football is rapidly spelling the
doom of bull fighting in Madrid and
other Spanish cities, Commercial At
tache Cunningham, at the Spanish
capital, informed the Department of
Commerce today.
"The Spaniards are not exclusively
interested in bull fighting as they
are reputed to be-" Cunningham s
message said.
Frequently, in cities outside of
Madrid, the bull fight is suspended,
if there is good football game
scheduled for the same day"

"VENUS," BY PHIDIAS,
REMOVED FROM ITALY

NAPLES, June 11.-Considerable
excitement has been caused by a
report that the celebrated statue CT
Venus Genetrix, by Phidias, exca-
waited here in 1918, has been taken
to France. The statue, Of which
the Naples museum possesses the
only copy, was bought originally
from Marquis Pinelli, who sold it
to the Rothschilds for 10000
francs.
So far it has not been determined
how the statue could have been
taken across the frontier.

FEELS
BAD BUSINESS
CONDITIONS
European Situation, High
Prices and Labor Difficult
ties Responsible.
by Cosmopolitan News Service.

Great Britain is up against a
threc-cornered difficulty, either cor
ner of which is important in itself,
in releasing the brakes that are
retarding business, report of the
United States Department Of Com
merce, says.
First. and probably largest, Is
the adverse influence caused by the
unsettled conditions in Continental
Europe,
Second, is the feeling that present
commodity price levels are too
high, particularly in the case OF
raw materials and fuel.
Third, is the labor situation,
which is far from encouraging, for
railway shopmen, shipyard boiler
makers, and other classes Of labor
are in a tangle with their employers
over new wage scales, the report
indicates, with several stable
strikes or lockouts threatened.
Owing to adverse conditions in
the cotton centers of Lancashire
and Cheshire, the number of un-
employed considerably increased
last month.
The report also says, New orders
for steel and iron are less in evil
dence, owing to the hope that a
Ruhr settlement will bring prices
down. The coal trade is busy ex-
ecuting old contracts and forward
buying is not so active as in the
previous month. The prices OF
raw materials and fuel are un-
favorably affecting other industries,
notably textile, engineering and
shipbuilding."
The report reflects the thought
that if the sources Of all these
troubles can be removed, Great
Britain should have little difficulty
in proceeding to get on her bust

PARIS. June 11.-Turn about
coats are to be seen a-plenty these
chilly days Of early summer. The
weather man has been more than
unkind to milady this season and
has not allowed her to wear her
pretty thin clothes. So the smart
couturiers are turning the tables
on him and bringing out the smart
est cold weather coats which are
as beautiful as the light costume.
These new reversible coats are
cut on straight lines, enyeloping the
body in graceful curves. Crepe
maroccain is always a favorite ma
terial. Many are embroidered in
two tones and others are beaded.
Taffeta coats embroidered with
colored silks are a pretty novelty
Lelong is showing them lined with
light toned kasha which makes
them warm and downy for cold days
and evenings. Bright colors AND
stripes will be worn at the seashore
over white pleated skirts.
Francis uses two-toned drapella
and crepella for daytime coats
There are some charming combina-
tons, old rose and blue, orange and
beige with red and black. They
are made exactly alike on both sides,
so that all one has to do is to turn
it over and voiia-another coat.
A smart shop in the Rue De La
Paix is showing sports coats beau.
tifully embroidered in charming de,
signs. Some are patterned all over
others are plain. They are all the
reversible type. One in white has
a lining of deep rose. They are
good woody coats that one likes tc
wear at the seaside and mountains.
Nicole Grou1t makes her evening
coats and capes in the-turn about
style. One in brocade was a lovely
shell pink with raised velvet flowers
The large ostrich feather collar in
black and pink looks as well on
one side as the other.

EXPECT CLASH
ON LIQUOR
RULING
First Foreign Ships Bringing
Intoxicants Within Limit to
Test Decision.
By w. H. ATKINS,
international News Service.

An early clash with foreign
diplomatic officials over the SUI
preme Courts decision barring
beverage liquors on vessels within
the 3-mile limit, was considered
probable by officials today.
First Ship Will Bring Kick.
1t is expected that new angle
to the foreign ship liquor contro-
versy will soon develop through in
reference with the first foreign
ship found to possess liquors, for
other than medicinal purposes,
within the American territorial
limit.
The protests of the French,
Italian, Spanish, and other govern
ments which already have been
lodged within the State Department,
that the decision conflicts with the
maritime laws of those countries
with respect to the VINE ration for
crews, will be followed up vigor-
ously by accredited diplomats here,
as soon as American officers pro-
coed to confiscate beverage liquors.
American prohibition and customs
agents will not be allowed to go SO
far as to seize a foreign ship, If the
vessel is a passenger ship on one
of the regular transatlantic routes.
The policy. it was said, will be to
avoid more than confiscation of
Ian1I l.
American territorial limits.
Must Wait a Week.
A week or ten days may pass be.
fore the issue is again brought to
the attention of the State Depart
ment, as all foreign ships that
sailed from their home ports before
the regulations became effective
will be allowed to enter American
ports with their beverage liquor
stocks, but they must be held
under customs seal while in Ameri-
can ports.
The discretion" to be allowed
foreign ship doctors in determining
theri liquor needs were considered
by many to be a danger point in
the regulations. Officials said it
is clear that some requests for
non-beverage liquors desired before
ships leave American ports, may
call for such excessive quantities
that American officials will have to
exercise great caution to prevent
fragrant evasion of the law.
Most of the shipping companies
however, have agreed to abide by
the regulations. at least for the
present, and pending expected ac-
ton by Congress exempting them
from the provisions Of the Volstead
law.
