ST. ELIZABETH
PROBE HALTS

The investigation Of st. Eliza
beth's Hospital by a special COM
mission of experts, appointed by
Secretary Of the Interior Hubert
Work, was temporarily abandoned
today as the investigators returned
to their homes to catch up on their
private work.
For more than two weeks now,
the commission composed of four Of
the leading experts in hospitaliza-
ton in the country, has been inves-
tigating and studying conditions at
the hospital.
The probe Is expected to be re-
sumed in a few days. The report to
Secretary Work is not expected to
be made, however, for some time.
A score of investigators and au-
ditors from the office of Comptroller
General J. Raymond McCarl are
also busily studying conditions at
the Government hospital for the
insane. Half of them are investi-
eating the financial condition Of the
hospital while the others are work
ing on the personnel and equipment.
The Veterans Bureau is also in
vestigating the hospital on its own
initiative in regard to its hundreds
of patients quartered there.
A fourth investigation may get
underway next week when the Dis
trict committee investigating the
District government reconvenes and
renews its probe Of District affairs.

SHORTS FORCED
To COVER
by international News Service


NEW YORK, Oct. 7.-Short cover
ing in the industrial and railroad
stocks which bore the brunt OF
yesterdays professional selling ac-
counted for moderate rallies in the
early trading today. The market
was largely professional, however,
with some of the bullish pools a
little more aggressive In the sup
port of their favorites. But bearish
traders opened up some new weak
spots" and threw in heavy volume
of selling orders wherever there
was any sign of yielding.
Some disappointment was shown
over the Stock Exchange loan Zig.
ures for September, which disclosed
an increase of $76,7S8, 900 over the
August total. This was partially Off
set by the decision of the Boston
Reserve Bank directors to make no
change in the rediscount rate. Call
loan renewals were posted at Az
per cent, q slight increase over
Wednesdays final. October cotton
lost an additional dollar a bale, but
the other options were fairly STEADY
at the start Of trading.
The "drive against the shorts
in Hudson Motors, which resulted
in an advance in the stock to
56A, against yesterdays low price
of so, was generally attributed TO
the return and active participation
of William c.. Durant. Oil stocks
did not share the buoyant move
ment Of the Standard Oils on the
curb, though some Of the leading
independents scored fractional gains.
Electric Refrigeration declined an
additional 4 points to a new low
at 52h, completing a loss of &c
points since listing on the big board.
North American was weak spot
in the utility group, and Continental
Baking slumped off in persistent
selling. Stocks were offered quite
literally in every section OF the
market in the second hour, and a
new downward price movement was
inaugurated.

DEMAND FOREST
FIRE HELP

Demanding that the Government
fulfill it's contracts with timber
land owners in the matter Of forest
protection, a delegation of Pacific
coast lumbermen, representing the
Western Forestry and Conservation
Association, today called at the
White House and demanded OF
President Coolidge a more compre-
hensive Federal policy.
The timber land owners, who
were headed by A. w. Laird, presi-
dent of the association, declared
that the Clarke McNary bill, which
authorizes the Government to pay
25 per cent of the cost OF forestry
conservation and protection, was
being partially ignored by Congress.
Last year, Congress appropriated
only $4,000, whereas the sum
should have been $1,250,000 they
said.
The general forest policy Of the
Government was condemned on the
grounds that more money was spent
for emergency fire-fighting than
was put into the establishment of
a preventive system, the lumber
men declared, and suggested that
this order be reversed.
Additional appropriations of $S45,.
600 are necessary if the Govern
ment is to share it's burden with
the States and private owners, the.
President was told.

CHILD SAVINGS
LURE BANKS
By RICHARD HATTON


That the question of savings by
school children has become ,one
OF more than passing interest to
financial institutions, to parents, to
teachers and to the children them
selves is evidenced by the fact that
at the evening session OF tn
Savings Bank Division Of the
American Bankers Association in
convention in Los Angeles Wed
nesday evening. w. Espey Albig,
deputy manager of the American
Bankers Association, stated in an
address that nearly three and one
half million school children in the
continental limits of the United
States participate in this system OF
saving.
School children in Washington
are not behind their fellows in
other sections of the country in
this growing habit of thrift and
the school rawlings account is espe-
cially fostered by the Mt. Vernon
Savings Bank here which is max
ing feature of this class Of
accounts, installing a Children's De-
partment in the new addition to its
building which will be devoted ex-
clusively to the accounts Of young
sters.
President William Muehleisen
and his officers at the Mt. Vernon
continually stress the value OF
thrift to the younger patrons OF
the institution. and the bank now
carries about $500 accounts of
children in public and parochial
schools with over $40, 900 on deposit
- q
OF child savings has accumulated
since 1929 when the Mt. Vernon
instituted it's school savings system.
New high totals in school saw
1ngs for all time mark the report
as of June 80, 1925, covering CONT
mental United States" Mr.. Albig re-
ported in Los Angeles last night.
"The number of systems reporting
school savings has increased during
the year from 760, embracing 1857
districts, to 872, which embraces
1918 districts.
~Ti1e number Of schools has in
creased from 10,163 to 1871; the
number of pupils enrolled in schools
having systems from 3,848,632 to
4,319,741: the participants in school
savings from 1859 ,497 to 3,403,746;
the deposits from $16,961 ,560.72 to
$50, 469, 960.S8; net savings from
SITS. s22.55 to $S,770, 731.O5, and
bank balances from $25, 931 ,531.15 to
So, 1884, 052.63.
Growth Gradual
character growth is slow" con-
cluded Mr.. Albig. Satisfactory re-
suits can be secured only by per-
sistent teaching and training. A
system OF school savings which does
not consciously encourage regularity
of deposits, and make unnecessary
Withdrawals difficult, falls short OF
it's true mission. Any district hav-
ing school savings system and
failing to develop this attitude him
ders rather than helps real thrift or
proper character growth, for 1t
familiarizes the pupils with the proc
esses necessary In Withdrawing
money without training them in its
wise USE"

did not supply sufficient energy and
intelligence to make 1t work.
Declaring that under the theory OF
the American Government the citizen
is sovereign, the President stated that
the only way to perfect our Govern
ment is to perfect the individual
citizen. It is necessary to reach the
mind and soul of the Individual, he
said. He added that only the power
of righteousness is capable of helping.
and in his opinion only religion ana
education could give the citizen full

duties and at the same time give
American institutions their full force

"By religion 1 do not mean." he
continued "either fanaticism or big
otry; by education. l do not mean the
cant of the schools. but broad and
tolerant truth, loving thy neighbor as
thyself, and training and experience
that enables the human mind to see
into the heart of things"
During the course of his address
the President referred to the Christ
mas season by saying: This is the
holy season. All humanity has laid
aside the burdens of the day that they
might rejoice in the glad tidings of
Peace on earth. good VIII toward

Mr.. Coolidge prefaced his remarks
with an especially interesting nara
ton of the Revolutionary period lead
ing up to the battle of Trenton. which
he described as the turning point In
the war, and a recounting OF the sub
seuuent events, eliminating with the
surrender of CORVALLIS. AS for the
battle of Trenton. the President said
that while 1t cannot be said that IT
ranks as a great battle. It was the
turning point in the war. at which de.
Tense and defeat became offense and
victory. From the hour of Washing

heart Of the individual If the heart of
the nation is to be changed.
The President expressed the belief
that a wider understanding of the
spirit of mutual service is growing in
the world, but that this does not run
counter to the theory of independence.
He recalled that In the days of George
Washington and the patriots of his
time the colonies determined to re-
sist unjust impositions and establish
their complete independence, but that
Americans did not then and do not
now fail to recognize that they are
part of the civilized world, and that
they owe not only to themselves but
to others great obligations.

dent declared, ito be masters of their

ought to know, that unless we can be

Unless we look after ourselves, we can
not look after anybody else. The
obligations of civilization are recipro-
cal. The same consideration that we
Turning to matters more intimate
and bearing more directly upon the
domestic development of the country,
the President warned against attach
ing too much emphasis in this coun-
try to wealth and prosperity. He
added that the American people ought
to desire to be prosperous, but 1t
ought not to be their main desire. In
his opinion, there are other things
they ought to want more. The Presi-
dent, however, characterized pros
perity as character, saying that 1t is
not based on Incidence and ease, on
avarice and greed, or on selfishness
and self-indulgence, but is the result
OF industry, fair dealing, self-denial
and generosity.

BLAZING BUNTING
lMPERILS PRESIDENT
Fire Brings Momentary Scare
Upon Arrival of Party at
Trenton Station.


TRENTON, n. J., December 30.-As
President and Mrs. Coolidge were leav-
ing the Pennsylvania station upon
their arrival at Trenton late yesterday
afternoon they were in danger Tor a
moment or SO when a streamer OIL
bunting across their pathway caught
FIRE. The flames, which leaped high
for a brief period and which came
dangerously close to the President and
his wife. were quickly extinguished
bv one Of the States soldiers forming
the guard along the lane through
which the President and his wife were
walking to their automobiles.
Although some little excitement was
caused. the President and Mrs. Cool
tdge remained cool. The former, in
his customary calm fashion, called
directions to the soldier engaged in
extinguishing the fire.
Take your time. Don't rush. and
be careful We are in no hurry" the
President called to the soldier.
The flares used by news photogra-
pliers for the purpose of taking flash
light photographs of the Presidents
arrival ignited the bunting, which re-
suited in this blaze.
