more clearly the value to Americs
of membership in the League. He
was asked how the issue might he
re-opened to the people of the United
States, since it had been so definite
ly closed by the election of fou,
years ago. In answering this cues
ton DR.. Fisher pointed out that the
: issue as decided was not clear Gu
but was so b%eclouded by other things
that the people lost sight of the
vital question Of whether or not the
country should enter the League.
That since the election of four years
ago they had been told so often and
so emphatically that the issue was
closed hat they had come to accept
1t as a fact, but that, in his opinion,
If a referendum were to be taken
taday on that question alone, the peo-
Pile would be overwhelmingly in fav-
or of going into the League. In proof
of the statement that the question
was not definitely decided four years
ago he recalled the fact that when
the vote was taken in the United
States Senate 1t carried by a majority
Of nine, but that the two-thirds ma
jority necessary for it's passage was
not forth coming. He stated that the
organization which he represents had
hoped to be able to insert a pro
League plank in both the Republican
and Democratic platforms for the
coming election but in this had been
unsuccessful. They had however
been able to get a pro Court plank
into both platforms, which was an
entering wedge and had had crafty
ing success along other lines in their
nffNrto tn Loro ,Dn
in world affairs. He considered it
inevitable that sooner or later we
must do u part in Europe, that
the League as now existing was the
best medium for activities, that
Europe needed us and that we need
ed Europe and that the sooner we
realized it the better. In stating
his personal position on the question
he said that he favored the entry of
America into the League with this
reservation applying to the much ma
ligned Article 10 and other similar
articles, namely, that the United
States should be the sole judge and
authority in deciding any question of
moral obligation involving this coun-
try.
Following the discussion DR.. Fish
er asked for a vote of those present
on whether or not America should
enter the League with the reserva-
ton as stated by him. Among the
thirty-five or forty men present there
was not one dissenting vote.
DIR. Fishers talk vas most enlight.
ening to all and made clear many
points on this most vital question
which had been but poorly under
stood in the minds OF many of those
present. 1t also brought most vivid
ly to light the power OF a persistent
minority in their e%ndeavors to make
the mass OF the people believe what
a few want them to believe, and the
tendency of us frail humans to agree
with the man who can talk the loud
est.

| |SULLIVAN'IS SILENT
ON BUTLER PARLEY
Declines to Discuss Conference Held
With Police Gear in
Philadelphia.
ANOTHER TRIP PROBABLE
Friends Not Sure He Would Ac-
cept Quaker City Job.

Although Maj. Daniel Sullivan,
superintendent of police, will prob
ably make another trip to Phila-
delphia within the next few days, he
continued to remain silent today as
to the purposes of his conference with
Gen. Smedley d. Butler, director of
public safety in that city.
The report gained circulation yes
terday that the local police head had
been asked about q position in the
Philadelphia department when he
was in the Quaker city Monday.
When asked regarding the reports
yesterday. the major said he could
not discuss IN any manner the con-
ference he had with the director
of public safety.
1t was reported today that Gen.
Butier, who obtained leave from the
Marine Corps to enter the municipal
service or Philadelphia, may be
seeking the advice and experience OF
MAI. Sullivan as seasoned police
man In deciding some police admins
tr2tive matters.
While the local police chief has re-
trained from discussing his trip, some
OF his friends believe that If a def
hile o1ter was made he would con-
slder IL long and carefully before
leaving Washin gton, where he has
spent the greater part of his life.

BERGDOLL OFFERED
NOTHING TO RETURN
ANY Proposal for Communication Of
Sentence VIII Be Rejected,
Officials Say.

Grover Cleveland Bergdoll has been
offered no inducement from the
American government to return from
Germany, to which he escaped as q
draft evader.
This was made known by both the
State and War Departments last
night, when it was said that any pro-
posal for a Communication of sentence
would be rejected.
It was pointed out that Bergdo11 had
served less than two months of his
five-year prison sentence and it was
altogether improbable that any re-
duction Of the remaining sentence
would be allowed in the event he re-
turned. All that was possible to
promise in the way of Communication,
1t was said, would be the usual al
lowance for good behavior and that
would depend entirely upon the con-
duct of the prisoner after the major
part Of the sentence had been served.

WILL REPORT SOON.

Assistant Attorney General Rush L.
Holland expects to make his report
within the next day or so.
The assistant attorney general ex-
pressed himself to this effect after
comforting with President Coolidge at
the White House late yesterday after
noon. He intimated that he has gone
quite thoroughly into the official acts
Of the two civilian Commissioners,
especially as applied to their service
as members of the District Zoning
Commission and the Public Utilities
Commission, and their method of pur-
chasing supplies for the District gov
ernment.
He said that Commissioners Ru-
dolph and Oyster have explained to
him certain points about which there
has been consideranle contention ,ha;
appointment. Mr.. Holland indicated
that the two Commissioners were
frank and courteous and helpful in
answering questions. all of which
/ complete his inquiry much more
rapidly than he anticipated.
Is Awaiting Report.
The President has let it be known
that he will give no consideration
to these two appointments until he
has studied Mr.. Hollands report.
While he is reviewing the report, he
will also give his attention to the
. half-dozen or so names that have
; been suggested to him for appoint
ment in the event he decides not to
reappoint the incumbents.
Most prominent among those Sug-
gested to displace either Commits
sioner Rudolph or Oyster. is Charles
/ A. Baker president of the Fedora
tion Of Citizens Associations. The
| most recent Endorsement Of Mr..
Baker was received at the White
House late yesterday from Rev. W.
+. Darby, secretary of the District
Federation of Churches. DR.. Darby
f! said today that in his letter he ,sug-
gested to the President that he select
! the best possible men for the two
Commissionerships, and that in the
event he decided not to appoint one
or both. of the fncumbents, that he
appoint Mr.. Baker. who. he pointed
out, was well qualified to serve.
DR.. Darby made plain that he was
not opposing the reappointment Of
either Commissioner Rudolph or
Oyster, nor was he rejecting the
! views of the Federation Of Church es
He said he was writing merely as an
| individual.

SEES BONUS BACKED.

The huge majority attending the pas
sage Of the House yesterday OF the
adjusted compensation bill Is evidence
that the representatives of the people
know that sentiment through the ma
ton has been continually growing, and
has finally become insistent that Con-
gress delay action on this measure no
longer, said John Thomas Taylor, Amer
lean Legion national Legislative commit
tee member. in a statement today. "The
members of the House come up for
election every two years, and are
therefore responsive TO the desires of
their constituents" he added.
Paul ]. McGahan, department COM
maHder of the District American Le-
gion also commented on the passage
of the measure, saying, "Whether it
is satisfactory one remains to be
seen" He asserted few of the vet
Grams have had time to consider the
provisions of the legislation.
The House vote on the measure yes
terday was 355 to 81. The margin
over the necessary two thirds was So.
The result indicated there are votes
IN the House to override a presiden-
tiai veto.

ments.
