ALUMNI OF HOWARD U.
PLAN REORGANIZATION
Committee Advises Representa-
tive Government of
Association.

Proposed reorganization of the How
ard University Alumni Association will
be considered by the general alumni
organization at it's annual meeting at
the university Thursday night. A
committee, appointed by President W.
Justin Carter, consisting of DR.. p. NJ.
Murray of New York City, Miss G.
Dorothy Pelham and Walter H.
Mazyck, both of Washington, has de-
cided that a representative form of
government for alumni associations is
the best.
Most alumni associations, it is
stated, have a representative body in
the form of an alumni council. The
function of such a council, as stated
by the Dartmouth constitution, is said
to be ito act as a clearing house for
alumni sentiment; to approve or disap-
prove projects put forth in the alumni
name; to act as official spokesman of
alumni sentiment to the administra-
tion and to initiate and carry on such
undertakings as are reasonably within
the province of alumni activity"
A proposed constitution for the How
ard University Alumni Association
has already been Endorsed by rs mem
bers of the executive committee, repre-
senting every section of the country,
and it is believed by those in touch
with the situation that the organiza-
tion will soon have the desired repre-
sentative form of government.

URBANA, ILL.,, June ? R.-The

here to describe former Vice President
Thomas r. Marshall, who died yester.
day in Washington.
Mr.. Bryan said: Mr.. Marshall was
man of great force and originality.
He not only said things of Importance
but he said them in a taking way. He
was epigrammatic. His speeches spar.
killed. with humor and common sense.
He was not only one of our fore
most politicians, but he was as promi.
nent in the church as he was in his
party. He stood squarely on the great
fundamental truths in both politics
and religion. His place will be hard to
fill. There will be deep sorrow in a
multitude of hearts at his taking off
The Nations sympathy goes out to
Mrs. Marshall, who was his comrade
in all of his undertakings. Theirs was
an ideal partnership between con.

the nominee of the party for Presi-

Il am not a candidate, nor have l

editor of the Observer. Il belong to
that school which believes that the
presidency is too exalted an office to
be put up, through the primary, for
sale to the biggest money bag or the
most inflated gas bag. Mine eyes have
lived TO see the time when, instead
of the people hiring servants, serv-
ants are now trying to hire the
people. Be not deceived in human ma

content and happy in the faith that

NEW YORK, June 2.-Lucien Gui-

opposite Sara Bernhard for many
years, and who was a member of a
famous family theatrical trio, is dead.
He was generally considered the
greatest cotemporary artist on the
French stage. Several times it was

New York, but fear of the voyage
prevented his keeping the engage

During the last few years Guitry

son. Sascha, present idol of theatrical
Paris and popularity known as the
Little Moliere." Guitry, his son, and
the latter's wife. Yvonne Printemps.
became famous as family theatrical
trinity
Guitry made his debut in 1878, as a
youth of IS, in the role of Armand
in La Dame aux Camelias." Early
in his career he played in st. Peters
burg (now Leningrad), where the Rus
slams were so enthusiastic that he
was asked to remain permanently.
However, he was forced to leave Rus
STA because he struck the Grand Duke
Vladimir, uncle of the Gar. when the
grand duke insisted on pushing his
way into private dining room where
Guitry and a woman were dining.
In Paris he became in turn man
ager of the Porte Saint-Martin, di-
rector of the Comedie F'rancaise and
director of the Renaissance.
Perhaps his greatest role was as
Chanticleer in the play by that name
by Rostand. Another favorite role
was F'lambeau in "L'Aiglon," in which
he played opposite Bernhardt.

believed he had been defrauded led
Walter W. Graebner. a postal en-
ploye, to send bombs and about 100
threatening letters to Emil l.. POdolin,
attorney. Graebner's counsel. A. j..
Wanamaker, declared in court when
his client was arraigned ON charges of
sending the bombs and letters through
the mails.
Graebner, who confessed to sending
the bombs and letters, was held in
SO 900 bail.
Assistant United States Attorney
Anderson said that Graebner not only
endangered the lives Of his intended
victims, but also 100 postal clerks, who
had handled the bombs
Postal inspectors testified the bombs
were powerful enough to wreck the
post Office building, were ingenious
and would have blown a train off d
track had they exploded in a mail car.
Graebner's story of being defrauded
was denied today by A. 7. Hawks
worth, post office inspector. Graebner,
Hawksworth said, purchased an auto
mobile truck through Podolin on time
payments. Later he decided not to
buy. But. bound by contract, he mort
gagged his home TO raise the money.
The first bomb, sent month ago,
was found on a porch of the Podolin
home by a neighbor. The second
failed to explode when unwrapped by
Podolin.
Graebner was arrested last week
near Winslow Junction, \. J., while
waiting for Podolin to throw pack
age containing 81 900 from train

BY ROBERT It. SMALL.

All that was mortal of Thomas Ri
ley Marshall was taken away from
Washington today, but there will lin
ger long in this Capital of the Nation
the memory-the heritage-of a man
who as nearly approached the ideal
OF American citizenship as would
seem possible in the complicated, com
pleX hour in which we live. He would
have made q benevolent and beloved
President. There We're those who
thought he did not take public office
seriously enough. That was because
in eight years of life in Washington
he saw so many in public office who
struck him as funny. Tom" Mar
shall hated cant and hypocricy.
In the United States Senate he felt
he was surrounded, almost suffocated
by it. 1t led him to make the famous
remark that if the prohibition amend
ment had been acted upon behind
closed doors in secret session 1t would
not have got 20 votes in the Senate
No one ever contradicted that view OF
the then presiding officer of the august
body.
Mr.. Marshall had many old-fash
ioned ideas. They were the old-fash.
ioned ideas the people needed.
Mr.. Marshall had the d-fashioned
idea, for instance, that men were
elected to the House of Representa-.
tives and to the Senate of the United
States to be leaders of opinion, to
enunciate principles of government
and not be mere straws in the wind
blowing first one way and then the
other as they thought their constit-
uents might wish them to go.
Hits Wrong Attitude.
The people of this country didn't
intend, in my judgment" said Mr..
Marshall while he was still Vice Presi-
dent, that their representatives
should be guided by their constituents,
but that elected representatives should
act for them. Senators and Repre-
sentatives are like lawyers. Advice
should not come from the client to the
lawyer, but from the lawyer to the
client. If the client doesn't like the
advice he can always get another law
yer. The people, in my opinion,
should trust their representatives to
act for them"
Yet Mr.. Marshall held that the same
criticism he leveled against Senators
and Representatives held today against
the lawyers.
Indeed, lawyers, like statesmen" he
said, ARE losing their influence be-
cause they are not telling their client 3
what is the law and what should be
done. Instead, lawyers nowadays are
listening to boards Of directors and try
ing to accomplish what those boards
want done, often against the best judg-
ment of the lawyers themselves"
Sometimes Tom Marshall was re-
ferred to as the last Of the small-town
men"-unless President Coolidge may
