Photographs of Profession

to Merchants.

Plans are being made by the Mer-
chants and Manufacturers Association
to assist in ferreting out professional
shoplifters who might come TO Wash
ington during the Shrine convention 10
take advantage of the large crowds.
Brig. Gen. Anton Stephan, president
of the association. said he would take
up with Inspector of Detectives Grant
today the question of having each de-
partment store furnished with copies of
persons who have police records as
shoplifters.
The problem was brought to Gen.
Stephan's attention by an official Of one
of the department stores. who said he
had information such persons were in
town. He suggested that the associa-
tion take up with the police department
the question of getting their pictures
and placing them on view in the store
for identification by floor managers and
others. He said he believed the depart
ment stores would be willing to bear the
expense of furnishing the photographs.

Debt Negotiations
Are Likely to Be

Sir Auckland Geddes. the British
ambassador, has been confined to his
room for the past few days suffering
from an acute condition of the left
eye, IL was learned TODAY. While the
condition Of the diplomat was said to
him at the embassy stated he is
doing very nicely: that yesterday
and today he was doing very much
better than expected" and there was
no doubt of his recovery from the
attack
DR. W. Holland Wilmer. the eye
specialist. who was called to the as
sistance of the ambassador when the
optical trouble appeared, issued a
statement today as follows: THE
patient is suffering from an acute
condition Of one eye the lefU, which
will oblige him to lie by for several
weeks"
Eyes Strained.
From time to time in the past Sir
Auckland has suffered from optical
trouble, and the close study he has
been obliged to give to the British
war debt refunding agreement has
imposed additional strain upon his
eyes The theory was advanced that
the present attack is the outgrowth
Of a gas attack he received in France,
but this could not be given as the
positive cause.
The ambassador had intended to
sail from New York last Saturday Y

of no value to them in that case, but
the lives of the foreigners would be
endangered should the bandits be
fiercely or continuously attacked by
the Chinese forces or if an attempt
were made to starve them out
although Americans and Euro
peans in China are greatly stirred up
over the situation, and demands are
being made for direct negotiations
with the bandits and for the use of
foreign troops to effect the release OF
the captives, the minister continues
to be of the opinion that the foreign
representatives must work through
the Chinese authorities with the con-
slant pressure of insiStent demands
The minister has suggested that
the diplomatic body at Peking should
send such an international commits
sion of investigation as was estab-
lished last autumn in the case of
capture of certain missionaries cap
tured in Honan. but in the present
case has suggested that the commits
sion should be composed of the COM
manders of the several foreign mill
tary forces which maintain headquar-
ters in Peking for the purpose of
keeping open the railway from Pc
king to the sea, in accordance with
the boxer protocol of 1901"

executive order Of the President is
sued last January, and the work so
far undertaken by that council was
discussed by Commissioner Tigert of
the bureau of education. He ex-
planned that the ten executive de-
partments of the government. plus
two independent bureaus. the Vet
erans' Bureau and the bureau of vo-
cational education. were represented
in the council The council, he said
had attacked the problem OF bringing
about government aid in the better
training of citizenship.
An analysis Of the federal govern
ment's activities to show exactly
where they touched the citizens OF
the country lad been made as a pre-
iiminary step. and a chart had been
prepared showing this relationship.
Mr.. Tigert laid emphasis on the
fact that no attempt was being made
to bring about federal control or die

Improvement of the citizens. The
purpose of the federal government is
merely to cooperate to bring about
the best results.
He said that the council had divided
the citizens whom it was desired to
and more effective work. 1t was
proposed to tackle the problem of
better citizenship through five chan
nels, mental and educational, health
and technical training. patriotic at
titude, and moral and social condi-

BIRMINGHAM. Ala. May 24.-One
man was killed and Norwood, fash
ionable suburb, was threatened early
today when an 80,000-gallon tank Of
gasoline exploded IN the center of
seventy-one other tanks containing
100000 gallons of gasoline and
crude oil, at the plant of the Wof-
ford Oil Company. The blast rocked
Birmingham, and thousands of per-
sons hurried to the fire. but fed when
they realized their danger.
working in terrific heat, firemen
played streams of water on the tanks
about that which exploded and saved
the situation. They placed the loss
at approximately $4,000.
Frank Williams negro-was said to
have been working on a pipe line
leading to the tank which blew up,
and IL was said a spark caused by
cauiking the pipe might have caused
the explosion. His body has not been

TEXT OF PRESIDENTS MESSAGE
URGING RENEWING OF IDEALS

The text OF President Harding
address before the National American
today. follows:
1t is not only a pleasure. but
great reinsurance to greet this
body of earnest and Intelligent
men and women, who have come
together, so to speak, as co-ordi-
nators for a great group or or
ganizations devoted to the com
mon purpose of bettering Ameri-
can citizenship. 1t is one OF the
best signs of cur times that there
exists a widespread realizat' on OF
need for organized and determined
effort to recall the people TO the
high ideals which inspired our re-
publican institutions. 1t is a com
mon observation nowadays. some
times. / think, altogether too cas-
ily and lightly made. that democ-
racy is on trial. | think we have
need to make some distinction AT
this point. The unqualified ana
not infreQuently peSsimistic dec
laration that democracy is on trlal
is calculated to suggest that per-
haps there is need to search for an
republican institutions which We
have erected in this country, and
which have spread in the last CEN
tury and a half to d great part or
the world. T have some miSgiV-
ings about whether democracy is
on trial. but am very sure that in
these times it is experiencing a
good many trials. Further. we
will be quite safe in admitting
that many of the institutions
which have been set up in the
hope that through them the best
aims of democracy might be real
lied, are on trial. We Will make
no mistake IL we confess thatthe
attitudes and conduct OF many
people who profess devotion to
democratic institutions are on
trial. But all this may be admit
ted without implying that any i'm
portant part of society is seeking
an alternative to democracy.
There is much questioning OF
ways and means and institutions,
but as to the fundamentals 1t GER
tainly can be said that never was
our country more firmly commit
ted to the broad ideals and pur-
poses of democracy, and never be-
fore were SO many other countries
and peoples seeking to establish
like commitments. Human society
has never faced a more complex or
difficult situation: and 1t is. there
fore, of first Importance that all
Americans be brought to under
stand the underlying purposes of
this ealth, and to fix
firmly in their hearts the determi-
nation to maintain institutions
capable of progressive evolution
and development, along the lines
of our fundamental principles.
Understanding lis Needed.
To this end the need is to edu-
cate all of us to understand what
our fundamentals are. what they
mean, and whether, in the process

That Sandbar III, winner of the
Rock Creek hunt annual at Arlington
Park last Saturday, can use his head
when put to the test as well as his
legs when taking jumps, was clearly
demonstrated early today when fire
swept the stables at>the. Arlington
Horse Show grounds. where the fleet
rooted racer and eight of his COM
panions were being housed.
Philip Everhart, owner of the thor
oughbred, had just left the stable
with another Of his racers for
morning workout, when flames, of un-
known origin, started in stall at the
western end of the building occupied
by Sandbar II. So fierce was the fire
and so rapid it's spread that all Mr..
JSyerhart could do was let his mount
ran wild and rush to the burning
stable, where much to his surprise, he
found his great racer patiently wait
ing for some one to unfasten the
doors of his stall.
aSuch behsytor is quite contrary.

ATTORNEY SUMMONED
IN CASE AGAINST CULT
INQUIRY May Halt for Two Weeks
After Testimony, 1t Is
Indicated.

ST JOSEPH, Mich. May 24.-H. 1.
Dewhirst. attorney for the House OF
David colony. was summoned to the
stand today In the one-man grand
jury investigation Of charges or I'M
morality against the cult.
Indications today were that Two
weeks adjournment would follow the
close OF the present weeks session:
Whether additional witnesses Will
be called to clarity conflicting testi-
mony thus far adduced will depend
upon a review OF all the testimony
offered during the five weeks the
hearing has been in session

developed little of major importance,
four witnesses having been question
ed regarding the whereabouts OF
Etidorpha Smith, alleged to have been

made to question her concerning the

of their evolution. we desire TO
hold them everlastingIy secure. In
some ways Americans are a very
conservative people; in others,
quite the reverse. Having been
compelled for generations. more or
less, to inproViSe institutions fitted
to their needs. they have largely
lost the fear of experimentation.
Some OF them are quite too willing
to experiment without first stop
ping to think out clearly the pro-
cedure on which they would enter.
Conflicts among differing groups
and opposing programs have COM
monty prevented disastrous re-
suits; but there is danger in plac-
ing too much reliance on this kind
of protection. 1t is liable to dead
lock the whole mechanism of prog
ress. That would be as great a
disaster as to give ourselves over
TO an = era of ill-assorted. un-
thought social and economic ex-
periments Somewhere between
these two undesirable courses
our country has need to chart
route of sane, construc-
tive. genuine progress. which may
command the sincere support of
the overwhelming majority. Thus,
and only thus. we shall assure
continuing institutional evolution,
without revolution: steady ad-
vancement, without avulsion.
1t seems fair to say that two
conditions must be met if our
quorum Of democratic institutions
are to continue improving and
adapting themselves to the re-
quirements of an increasingly COM
pleX social order. Every govern
mental unit must be so nearly as
possible a miniature of the ideal
state which all hope to realize. ca
pable of standing on its own bot
tom and managing its affairs as
may best serve the public welfare.
But, since such collection of in
dependent. lf-Governing COM
munitieS does not form a nation,
there must be also some potent
bonds of sympathy. interest and
common purpose, binding these
communities into great united
commonwealth.
Points to War Unity.
Our national experience during
the war afforded illustration of
how a great common purpose, in
tense and universal, would weld
the nation into true unity. The
inspiration to forget personal in
terests, for the sake of the COM
mon cause; to sacrifice individual
animosities, to work without stint
and without question. to give up,
if necessary. even life ftself-these
enabled us to achieve a conscious
ness of solidarity and of power
that this nation had not known be-
fore. 1t grandly demonstrated
what magnificent results a great
people can achieve if they have a
definite common objective which
all sincerely wish TO attain.
That great release of national
energy was inspired by war. 1t
showed how far this people will
go in service and sacrifice for the
