REFORM BODY O. KS
COOLIDGE AND DAVIS
Civil Service League Finds Both
Candidates in Sympathy With
Aims of Group.

President Coolidge and John W
Davis. the Democratic candidate for
President. have gone on record as
strongly favoring the merit system
in filling government positions. The
National Civil. Service Reform
League, following its custom in the
past. made inquiry of the leading
candidates for President as to their
respective attitudes on this subject
A statement issued by the League
quotes the following reply from Mr.
Davis:
81 take pleasure in stating that I
am in thorough accord with the
peldges of the Democratic party to
comply with the spirit as well as the
letter of the civil service law. and to
extend the provisions of the civil
service to officers and employees of
the Government not in executive po-
sitions. Let me say further that
am absolutely opposed to the abuses
now existing in certain Federal dc
partments whereby the selection Of
the eligibles from civil service lists
is controlled by unblushingly polit-
ical methods"
Then, referring to Mr.. Coolidge's S
attitude on the merit system, the
league statement continues:
I'm view Of the fact that President
Coolidge has indicated to officers of
the league in personal interviews his
sympathy with the objects of the
league, he was not asked for a writ
ten statement at this time. In his
last message to Congress President
Coolidge, when he advocated the civil
service classification of presidential
postmasterS and employees of the pro-
hibition enforcement unit, said: The
best method OF selecting public sery-
ants is the merit system

ATTORNEY EXPLAINS
TRUCE IN TONG WAR
Declares Armistice Terms Do Not
Mean That Hip Sing Members
Leave Capital.

Tho tvo-week truce between the
On I.eong Chinese Merchants Asso-
citation and the Hip Sing Tong, prin-
cipals in a recent war, does not mean
that members of the Hip Sing faction
will have to leave Washington per-
sonally. but that the activities OF
the last named tong will be suspend
ed in this jurisdiction. it was an
nounced today by Attorney Jerry G..
South as his Interpretation of the
agreement pact recently signed in
New York, which he helped to
draw up.
Mr.. South said that the agreement
made a definite arrangement for dis
continuance of hostilities for a two
week period, during which time the
opposing factions expected to get
whereby both could live in the same
localities in harmony without fear
of violence and disorder because Of
differences in principles and opinions.
Aa he interprets and construes the
agreement, Mr.. South said, in so far
as " sshington is concerned, the Hip
Sing vUg will cease to function and
the On c-eong faction will continue in
operation, but he stated that 1t was
not his opinion that the $50 members
Of the Hip Sing Tong here would have
to pack up their belongings and
withdraw to other climes.
Pleasure was expressed at the
Chinese Legation at the manifest in
tention of the Chinese citizens to
bridge differences and enter into an
era of harmony.

By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News
r. LONDON. November 1.-The
Prince of Wales may possibly re-
nounce his right to the throne
Of England. This rumor, kept the
prince eager company during his
trip from America on the liner
Olympic last week and greeted
him as it was whispered through
tho crowds when he arrived at
Southampton. home again after his
vacation
The rumor set the whole boat
buzzing before the voyage was
halfway done. The prince himself
scofred at it. But one Of his aides
went to the trouble of issuing an
Official denial.
Perhaps the circulation of the
rumor was one reason for the e1-
traordinary censorship on the
Olympic. As soon as it was dis
covered that there were several
newspaper men on board orders
were issued that every message
must be told both by the purser and
Capt. Lascelles, the princes secre-
tary. Very few messages passed
this board of censorship and any
that did were limited to 20 words.
Another reason for this strin-
gent censorship came with the

RUDOLPH SEEKS
TRAFFIC ADVICE
Commissioner to Consult
Counsel on Proposed Pc.
destrian Regulation.

Commissioner Rudolph announced
| today that he will confer with Cor
poration Counsel Stephens to get first
hand information on the legal aspect
of regulating the movement of pedes-
| trians crossing the street
The Board OF Commi ssi toner's has
NOT reached the point of definitely
new regulation. but Mr.. Rudolph said
| il was his intention TO find out from
| the legal adviser just what happened
| when previous rules of the same ma =
| ture were promulgated in the past in
case il should be deemed wise to
make another attempt 10 regulate pc
destrian traffic
! Mr.. Rudolph said that il was his
recollection that when a jay-walkng
regulation was enacted some years
ago it was found impossible to carry
| it out.
The corporation counsel said yes
/ terday that from a legal standpoint
! he believed it would be possible to
enact a rule that would apply to the
downtown congested section only re-
curing pedestrians TO cross at inter-
sections.
Headley Favor. Rule.
Inspector Albert J. Headley. chief
OF the traffic bureau. expressed it as
hlS opihl't toudS thdt tHe time mas
come to make such a regulation de-
sirable if applied only to congested
sections. The inspector said there are
few busy points outside the down
town section where il would be ad-
visable to require walkers to cross
at the intersections.
Il believe that such a regulation
is for the benefit of the pedestrian
himself as much as for the general
m Mt ~ ffr ~,
spector said II do not believe, how
ever, that it would be right to have
such regulation apply to the city
as whole. This would require a
| man to walk to the corner on a long
| block in a residential section where
traffic is not congested."
Officials of the corporation councils
| office not have looked up the exact
details of previous attempts to regu-
late the pedestrian, but their recol-
| lections are that there was first a posi-
| tive rule requiring the walker to
cross at a corner. which was followed
later by a clause in the traffic regu-
| lation, about 1917. which merely ad
viSed the pedestrian to cross only at
intersections.
-. Think Law Necessary.
The present discussion of the ad
visibility % regulating pedestrian
| movement has grown out of the effort
now being made by traffic officers to
| bring about a more orderly move
ment Of both vehicles and walkers by
sounding a warning with their whis-
| ties and waiting for an interval of
a few seconds before changing the
direction of traffic.
Observation in the down town sec
| tion has indicated that it is difficult
| to induce pedestrians to follow the
| u,hjS Ia Nd
| traffic is moving in their direction.
| When Mr.. Rudolph talks with the
corporation counsel it is probable
| that he will find out the detailed
history OF previous pedestrian regula-
| ton and then consider whaE the
| effect Of a modified rule would be
under present traffic conditions.

good prospect for fair skies dur
