MINISTER AND FRIEND

Former Chaplain Arrested After
Paper of Companion Is
Found Worthless.

Rev. Garrett Leroy Allen, 4S, re-
tired Army chaplain, Rogers Heights,
Nd, and Myles Selden Macon, 60, Chi
cago lawyer, living at the Raleigh
Hotel, were arrested yesterday after
noon by Detectives Fowler and Flah-
erty on a charge of alleged violation
of the bad check law, the sum in
Volved being $500.
Rev. Mr.. Allen, employed in the Pen
sion Office, was arrested at his place
of employment, while Macon was ar
rested at the hotel, where he has re-
sided the past year. The former told
the police he served as chaplain of the
40th Division, A. z. F., in France for
a period of 13 months during the
World War.
Mr.. Allen said he was the innocent
victim of an act of kindness on his
part in an effort to help q friend,
and Macon assured the detective the
check would be paid.
1t is alleged that Aliens two checks
for $500 each were cashed for Macon
by S. L. Christie, manager of Lig-
gett'S store, 1887 Pennsylvania ave-
nue.. Macon had presented Aliens
checks for smaller sums on several
occasions, it is stated, and there was
never any difficulty about them, but
the two chec'zs in question were re-
turned. The case was continued in
Police Court today until July g.

DAYTON MAY LOSE TRIAL.
Defense Counsel Ready to Go Straight
to Court.

NEW YORK, July 3 LP).-while
Dayton. Tenn, is making prepara-
tons to handle crowds at the forth
coming trial of John T. Scopes for
teaching evolution, there is a possi-
bility that the trial will not be in Day
ton at all.
Counsel for the defense at a con.
ference in New York have agreed to
seek indefinite postponement of the
Dayton trial in the State courts and
seek in the Federal Court at Knox
Vile an injunction against enforce
ment Of the law.
Instead of marshaling an array of
legal, scientific and theological talent
at the contemplated trial in Dayton
a week from today, defense counsel
will seek to prove in the Federal
Court that the law Is unconstitutional.
Miss Leila V. Scopes, who, like her
brother, is an evolutionist. and failed
to get job as teacher in the Paducah,
a position in Cleveland. Supt. r. G..
Jones said he would employ her If
she made application and qualified
when a vacancy occurred.
Dayton continued preparations for
the trial Its citizens were too busy
discussing evolution to participate in
a bond-issue election yesterday. Many
polling places were not even opened.
Alfred w. Mccain Of New York
author of God or Gorilla" an attack
on evolution, has written to William
Jennings Bryan declining an invita-
ton to testify at the Scopes trial.
His letter says that he disapproves
the entire procedure, and that the
spirit of this generation must feel
outraged by spectacular methods in
voked to put a muzzle on the teach
tngs of any cult, however erroneous.
Mr.. Mccain, a Roman Catholic, is
q pure food expert.

SPARKLERS' LURE
COSTS BOY HIS LIFE
Cab Hits Five-Year-0Id Child
on Way to Buy Harmless
Fireworks for Fourth.

Running joyously across the street
to a neighborhood store to purchase
Fourth of July sparklers after he had
begged his father into giving him the
money, little Harold Afford, 5-year-old
son Of Yarbor Afford, 154 A street
northeast, was struck by a taxicab and
fatally injured late yesterday.
Theodore s. Garman, 21 years old, of
713 D street southeast, driver Of the
cab, took the child to Casualty Hos
pital, where he died a few minutes
later of fractured skull. The driver
was exonerated at an inquest at the
District of Columbia morgue today.
The child's father. a former resident
of Magnolia, Pike County. Miss, is
employed in a u street barber shop.
He was besieged by his children on his
return from work yesterday to let
them buy sparklers. Harold and his
8-year-old brother Jamie previously
had been permitted to buy fireworks,
but had burned all the sparklers. After
repeated requests of Dad, give me a
nickle," the father gave them the
money, cautioning them to be careful
crossing the street
Jamie returned, bewildered, e few
minutes later to tell his father,
Harold got hurt by an auto"
The father and mother hurried to
the hospital, reaching there while sur
geons were preparing to perform an
operation as last resort TO save the
boys life.
Police say they learned the child
had run down the street. so that it was
almost impossible for the taxi to be
brought to a stop in time. Measure
ments taken by police showed the cab
skidded about 25 feet after Garman
had applied his brakes.

the liberty Of inclosing, with a copy
of the reply by Mr.. Cass Gilbert.
The institute, therefore, respect
fully calls to your attention the de-
STABILITY of carrying out any present
work of renovation or restoration of
the White House along the lines es-
tablished by Mr.. McKim.
I'VE have no thought that the in
tention is to do otherwise, so this let
ter is submitted as the performance of
cherished duty"
Besides sending this letter to the
President, it was learned today that
the American Institute of Architects
has solicited the assistance of Mrs.
Theodore Roosevelt and Mrs. Frances
Folsom Cleveland Preston, former mis-
tresses of the White House, in inter
ceding with the President and Mrs.
Coolidge to suspend the carrying out
of the colonial scheme.
The condition that actually exists, as
explained by Lieut.. Col. Clarence o.
Sheriff., engineer officer in charge OF
the White House and its improve
ments, is this: Congress directed that
a definite program of White House re-
pairs and restoration be planned, but
Congress has not furnished appropria-
tions for carrying out this restoration,
save 1000 for urgently needed cur
rent repairs. This includes painting
of the green room, general painting
and cleaning up and the purchase of
some rugs, curtains and draperies, be-
sides overhauling the vacuum cleaner
apparatus, installing a new elevator
and repairs to the roof.
However, in the painting of the
green room the first step would be
taken toward restoring a colonial in.
terror scheme, and this would gradu.
ally be carried out. Those opposing
this scheme contend that in the new
draperies, rugs, etc, the heavier hang
ings of the Louis XIV period would
be replaced and that the White House
would take on an appearance entirely
different from what 1t has been dur
ing the occupancy of Presidents
Roosevelt, Taft, Wilson, Harding and
Coolidge.
AS the situation now stands the
furniture and fittings to carry out the
colonial mansion scheme would have
to be donated, unless funds are pro-
vided by Congress to purchase de-
sired fittings. Any gifts of colonial
furnishings would have to meet the
approval of experts SO that the White
House interior would be truly re-
production of the best colonial style.
The American Institute of Archi.
tects took a guiding interest in the
refurnishing and decoration of the
White House during the Roosevelt
regime, and the letters referred to
by Mr.. Kemper in his missive to
President Coolidge are submitted as
proof that President Roosevelt ex-
pressed to Mr.. Gilbert and Mr.. Nc.
Kim the hope that future work on
refurbishing the white House interior
might be along the lines then adopted,

SCOPES DEFENSE
TO ASK INJUNCTION
viii Seek to Stop Operation
of Law First in United
States Court.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, July 3.-Counsei for the
defense in the Scopes case announced
today that a temporary injunction
against enforcement of the Tennessee
law prohibiting the teaching Of eVo-
luton in the public schools would be
sought Monday in the Federal Court
in Tennessee.
Clarence Darrow said this was
definitely decided in a conference held
in New York by himself, DIR. John r.
Neal, Dudley Field Malone and Balm
bridge Colby.
DIR. Neal has left for Tennessee with
the necessary data and the application
for a Federal injunction TO prevent
the State authorities from proceeding
with the case will be made either
Monday or Tuesday at either Knox
vile or Chattanooga.
Scopes to File Complaint.
Two complaints will be filed in the
Federal Court, to be determined upon
by Dr. Neal. said Mr. Darrow. One
will be filed by Scopes and the other
by a property holder not as yet deter
mined upon.
The complaints will. in effect, be ap-
plications for injunctions 10 restrain
the State court from proceeding with
the trial of Scopes at Dayton, Tenn,
July 10.
Two major considerations are in
Tolved in the proposed step: To OBJ
tain short cut to a determination of
the constitutionality of the measure
and to remove the sensational element
from the case. Also it is desired to
bring home to the people the really
serious aspect it has assumed.
This is an increasingly serious mat
ter" said Mr.. Darrow upon his ar
rival from New York. Tennessee is
not the only State which has this law
1t is in effect in Oklahoma and South
Carolina, and 1t is pending in 20 other
