WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.

w AOhlINGl YIN, NOV. y.
-F-Another reverber-

by Colonel William Mitchell,
against those in charge of the mill
tary and naval air services.
Through his counsel, Represents

because of his previous utterances In
the air controversy that he was fully
prepared TO prove his charge of crimi-
nal and almost reasonable negligence
in government aviation.
Among the multitude of offenses of
which the defense counsel promised 10
furnish proof were these:
SHENANDOAH UNFIT.
That the Shenandoah went on her
fatal Western trip unfit and against
the will of her commander, Zachary
Lansdowne.
That naval officer sought to have
Lansdowne's widow give false testi-
mony.
That those who arranged the unsuc-
cessful Hawaiian flight of the. PN-3,

That high army and navy officers
had testified falsely before committees
of Congress.

denoted and transferred because he
told the truth"
AIRMEN KILLED.
That government aviators are put
to unnecessary hazards and many
killed as a result.
That the government has failed TO
thwart a project to give a foreign
flight organization a foothold near the
Panama Canal, and to provide ade-
quate air protection to Hawaii and

George Price, featured comedian in

at the Auditorium for Friday light,

Although George is oniy a mere
boy he has been on the stage, doing
important things for many many
years. This seems to be crowding
things for George; but since he was
seven he has been on the stage and
having a good time of it. Along i'll
1907 things began to happen for this
clever young man, then a poor little
lad of the East Side in New York.
He had a brother Alexander and this
brother was employed to ielive:'
,, suits for a tailor whose business was
located at Hath st. and 9Th Avenue.
The youthful George was introduced
to the tailor one day and sang for
him. The tailor was greatly impress
ed with the youngsters talent, so he
called in the grocer to hear him. The
grocer called in his wife, and the
grocer's wife called in Mrs. Tinberg
neighbor.
The calling in of Mrs. Timberg is

But Gets Setback

Chicago, May 23.-Wheat took an
early swing downward today owing
to rains and cold weather over parts
of the northwest where yesterdays
drought and excessive heat were i'm
pairing the outlook for spring wheat.
On the other hand there were con-
tinued crop damage reports for the
sections which had apparently re-
ceived no relief. Sellers were eau
tious as a result and rallies were
free uent. The opening which rang
ed from 1Ac decline to " cent ad-
vance with May $1.67h to " and
July $l.551a was followed by an ir-
regular setback to $1.67 for May and
$l.54A for July.
Reports of snow in Canada and
freezing temperature in parts of Min

sharp advance at the last. Wheat
closed strong, to $3.50 net higher.

writer's After everybody had had a
chance to sing and show what they
could do, young George Price was
asked to show his wares. The most
important thing of all was that Gus
Edwards was present and he was
quick to discover that Master Price
had ability, and having the ability,
he engaged him at once, arranging
with his parents to take him into his
own household for training. George
Prices first appearance on Broadway
was two days after this birthday
party at the Timberg's. A benefit
was given at Wallick's Theatre and
young George appeared with Gus
Edwards. And, Furthermore, he made
hit. Gus Edwards sang "My Cousin
Carus," following the great Caruso.
George followed Edwards with an
imitation of Edwards, singing the
same song. For many years follow
ing George Price appeared as the
leading comedian in Gus Edwards
Song Revues, and many of the lyrics
in these shows were written by
George Price.
Then George Price broke into fame
on the Ziegfeld Roof, the New York
Winter Garden and the Century Roof
as an individual entertainer of ex-
| ceptional worth. When he returned
