rach. Patrick should worry. All his
expenses are paid and he gets a fat
sum Of money each day for his serY-

gets out of it.
Grove insists that the slayers are

to be not insane, but slightly queer

can talk freely in his individualistic,
pessimistic vein, which seems so de-

DAVIS EXCUSES
XII KLUX KLAN
IN ACCEPTING
DOdgeS Entire Issue of
Knightgowned Knuts
(By Federated Press.)

WASHINGTON, August A.
Candidate Davis thinIy yelled
excuse for the existence and
lawIess deeds Of the Ku KIux
KIan, in the opening section of
his acceptance speech, has set
all Washington to talking.
He said: "There is abroad in
the land a feeling too general
to be ignored, too deep-seated
for any trifing, that men in
Office can no longer be trusted
to keep faith with those who
sent them there, and that the
powers of government arc be-
ing exercised in the pursuit of
personal gain instead of COM
mon service.
"Out of this and because of it there
has developed an alarming tendency
to take the administration of the law
out of the hands of the constituted
officials and to execute its processes
thru individuals or thru organized So
cieties, by methods little different
from those of private revenge.
"A situation so threatening to the
very foundations of social order al
ways has been the doctrine of causes
which have brought it about, and tire
less exertion in the effort to remove
them. To bring the government back
to the people is and always has been
the doctrine Of democracy"
Davis Specious Plea.
This is construed as a specious plea
of mitigating circumstances, advanced
by the Morgan lawyer, for the Klan
terrorism. He assumes that the ten
dency' of the Klan to execute the
processes" of the law will be admitted
as fact, and that in the light of this
moral position its destruction of the
processes of law and of civil liberties
will be eclipsed and forgotten.
What About Southern Dems?
The question is asked, for example:
IF this is movement to enforce the
law, which can be suppressed only by
legal enforcement thru a democratic
party victory, why is it that the Klan
arose in the south, where the demo-
cratic party has absolute control Of
enforcement Of criminal statutes? {?
Why expect a national political organ
ization whose convention was unable
to speak word against this law-de-
flying movement, to itself supplant
violence with legal order?"
Despite all Of Davis qualifying
phrases, this indirect defense of the
Klan sticks out so boldly in his talk
that he is likely to hear of little else
that he mouthed in the rain at
Clarksburg.

on the evacuation of the Ruhr.

the German announcement said.
The French proposals give France

sooner if Paris and Brussels deem it
expedient.
The decision of the Germans to sur

Prior to the German delegations

zonlng Commission Takes
Quick Action Favorable
TO Home Owners

An attempt to rob large group
Of Washington home owners OF the
fruits of their victory before the
District coming commission has
been frustrated by an eleventh hour
action On the part Of the coming
commission, it became known to-
day.
At a hurriedly called special ses.
sion Of the commission yesterday
evening. following hearings lasting
all day yesterday, the commission
issued ruling setting aside Wood
ley Place, between Cathedral avenue
and Calvert street northwest, as a
restricted residential area.
This action was taken, it is sta.
ted, to thwart the designs Of real
estate operators who sought to slip
under the wire by obtaining apart
ment house permits for that area
before the coming commission had
an opertunity to issue a ruling.
When the proposal to restrict the
area to the erection of residences
only came up before the commission
yesterday, eighteen of the twenty
three home owners on Woodley place
appeared in support of the plan.
The other five were opposed, though
all five did not appear in person be-
fore the commission.
Two of the five are said to have
filed applications for the apartment
house permits Immediately following
the hearing, when it became appar-
ent that ruling against the apart.
ments would be issued.
The coming commission was in.
formed of the filing of applications
by the permit board and the coming
commission Immediately met and is.
sued its 1uling, which automatically
disbars the granting Of the permits.

GIRLS LOSE THEIR BABY
TEETH BEFORE BOYS DO

NEW YORK, June 20.-Girls lose
their baby teeth and cut permanent
teeth before boys do. and all child
rem show their baby teeth from the
lower jaw first. This is shown by
a survey, by the New York Asso-.
citation for Improving the condition
OF the Poor.
The survey indicates that a
child's physical development influ-
ences the order in which it loses
its baby teeth and cuts its perma-
nent teeth. 1t also asserts that un-
derdeveloped children are slower to
lose and cut incisors and certain
of the canine molars.
