REAL NEWS
ON GR|FFS.

Will Washington be the worlds 8
championship baseball team again
this year?
That is the question that is on the
lips of 100 per cent of Washington S
population.
IF there is one man in Washington
who can answer that question one
way or the other it is Louis Ashley
Dougher. sporting editor of the Wash
ington Times and dean of Washing
ton baseball writer's.
Mr.. Dougher is today en- route to
Tampa where he will be present at
the mobilization Of players Monday
morning, and his dispatches to this
newspaper will give baseball fans the
keenest line available on the 1925
prospects of the Griffmen.
If they are to repeat, Dougher will
be the first to observe 1t in the sport
ing section of this newspaper. What
ever the prospect, his fifteen years
constant study of the team enables
him to give newspaper readers a
more accurate line on the future
than any other writer with the club

n D CHANGE
MADE IN
SENATE
Drastic Measure Now Goes tc
Coolidge to Receive His
Approval

Without debate and within two
minutes after it was presented for
their consideration, the Senate to-
day agreed to the conference re-
port on the model traffic bin for
the District. This is the last step
in the Congressional career of this
Legislation which has had such a
tumultuous journey and provoked
50 much bitter debate. The bill
now goes to the President for sig
nature.
Chairman L. Heisler Hall, of the
Senate District Committee, ex-
planned today that the 22-mile
speed limit contained in the bill
applies only to the city proper.
In the outlying districts the con-
ferees purposely avoided setting
any speed limit and the reckless
driving clause will apply in these
regions.
Penalties Drastic.
It is expected the traffic director
created under the terms of the bill
will define the limits for the out
lying sections in order that motor
lists who speed without being reck-
less will not be molested by the
police.
The traffic director also is EN-.
powered, by the bill to designate
arterial highways and set a speed
limit above twenty-five miles an
hour for them.
The bill as it has been agreed to
by the Senate and House conferees
is drastic in as much as it provides
for mandatory Jail sentences for
first offenses other than driving
while intoxicated which was bitterly
objected to in the Senate.
BY the terms of the bill every
motorist in Washington will be
compelled to get a new drivers per.
NIT every year and pay 81 for the
fee. 1t was pointed out in drafting
this clause that the director OF
traffic must have personal contact
annually with the motor driving
public.
Adds Police and Judges.
The bill provides 100 additional
traffic policemen and two new
police court judges, who will sit
from a. M, until IL p. m. The
traffic director is to be q civilian,
but he is to be under the superin-
tendent of police.
The bill goes into effect sixty
days after signed by the President
and Washington motorists will have
to watch their step" after it has
been placed on the statute books.

Secretary Weeks Says He.
Wanted to See Articles
of Air Chief

BY international News Service.
The tables turned again today
in Congress probe of aircraft con-
ditions.
FriticiEing the critics, Secretary
or war Weeks appeared before
the committee today and took
sharp issue with Brigadier Gen
eral William Mitchell, assistant
chief of air service. who has re-
peatedly told the country that the
nation is practically "defenseless
in the air."
Accompanied by Davis.
Dwight Davis, Assistant Secretary
Of War and high ranking army Off.
Ger. accompanied Weeks.
Weeks denied that the military
airplane situation was as "deplor-
able as 1t has been pointed" but ad.
mitted that the United States had
an insufficient number Of fighting
airplanes and needed 300 additional
officers.
He said the army possessed 2O5
first-class fighting planes, although
General Mitchell had declared the
air service only had nineteen such
ships.
Weeks flatly denied charges that
ali service officers were muzzled in
giving testimony before Congress
sional committees.

I'm this connection, / want to
speak about General Mitchell's case.
After the first bombing tests,
Mitchell made a good many state
ments which the Navy Department
resented. The Secretary of the
Navy repeatedly called on me and
said many of Mitchells statements
were untrue. To avoid disturbance,
/ directed Mitchell to submit to the
department all Of his articles. He
did this for two years.
Last fall, however, he wrote two
articles for a magazine. These re-
flected upon the navy. Mitchell
went to the President and asked if
he could print the articles. The
President said he would have no on-
lection if he submitted them to his
superior officers for approval. The
President wrote Mitchell to that ef-
feet.
No Muzzling, He Says.
Mitchell went ahead and printed
the articles without submitting them
to the department not only violating
my instructions but those of the
President as WE'LL"

BERLIN, Feb. %. Friedrich
Ebert, first president Of the Ger
man republic, is dead.
The end came at 1913 .. m.
today, after a four-day struggle
with peritonitis following an op-
Grafton for appendicitis made
necessary suddenly Tuesday.
The president seemed to ..ally
after the operation, but following
q restless night Wednesday. his
physicians announced that local

ing tsiit0titis
Solemn ceremonies of mourning
will be held Tuesday, both at the
presidential palace and in front
of the palace in the Wilhelm
Strasse, when Chancellor Luther
will deliver a public address. All
public amusements were prohibited
by government decree today.
His InteStines ParalyZed.
A delicate puncturing operation
was performed yesterday morning,
but paralysis Of the intestines fol-
lowed making the surgeons fight
hopeless. He died seventeen days
after the sixth anniversary Of his
election to the presidency. His
term Of office was to have expired
next June 30.
After leadership Of his country
through the starved and stormy
days which followed the war. he
lived to see. reconstruction of the
Fatherland become more than q
promise, her credit restored, her
industries revitalized. her people
looking forward with courage and
renewed optimism.
A silent little group of digni-
taries who had been closely asso-
ciated with President Ebert waited
in an ante room at the West Side
Sanitorium for the news. Hope
for his life had been abandoned.
Death Came Peacefully
Death came peacefully to the
president, as peacefully as he had
lived before the epochal events in
postwar Germany thrust him sud
denly to the very forefront OF world
affairs.
At 9 o'clock the attending physi-
clans announced that the struggle
was hopeless. Herr Ebert had
lapsed into a state Of coma. He
died without regaining conscious
ness.
News Of his passing shocked the
entire nation.
Bank CIearings Gain.
The American embassy, located in
Wilhelmplatz square, was one of
the first buildings to half-mast its
flag for the Presidents death. The
German official buildings followed
suit.
The cabinet convened today to
discuss what steps should be taken.
1--WE stand at the bier OF rhe
head of our state, whose great
human qualities so often helped
solve the most difficult questions In
a way which meant the most good
for the German people," Chancellor
Luther told the cabinet.
ITO many of those who had been
called into the government he had
become a friend. Our thoughts go
out to him in deep and sincere
sadness.
Optimistic reports In the press
yesterday had led the German peo.
Pile to believe the president was on
the way to recovery.
Only President Ebert's remarkable
and his iron will en-.
abled him to live so long after the
first operation as he did, it was
stated.
His physicians admitted that 1t
would have been a miracle had he
lived.
