German Cruiser Hamburg Is
Reported to Have Sold Real
Beer in Los Angeles Harbcr
(By Dispatch A. P. wirel


WASHINGTON, May 28.-Attention
Of the German embassy probably will
be called tomorrow by the state de-
partment to charges from federal pro
hibition enforcement officials in the
Los Angeles area that beer contain
ing more than one-half of one per
cent of alcohol has been sold aboard
the German cruiser Hamburg, now in
San Pedro harbor.
A report from the district attorney
in Los Angeles reciting the evidence
in the hands of the government, on
which the charge against the Ham
burg was based, was forwarded today
by the department of justice to the
state department, where it was un-
derstood that a communication to the
embassy was being drafted.
1t was generally assumed, however,
that no steps are contemplated by the
Washington government beyond ref
erence of the matter to the embassy
for Investigation and for such action
as the German authorities, either the
captain of the ship or his superiors
in Berlin, may deem it necessary to
take.

SWEDISH ROYAL
COUPLE SHOWN
SPLENDID TIME
(Br n,,na1ct al p. Wirel

{ by u SpaJcn a T. Nlrel
WASHINGTON, May 2S-The crown
prince and princess of Sweden were
kept on the move throughout the
first day of their visit to the capitol
by a continuous round ef activities
which gave them an insight into So
ical, political and scientific phases of
American life.
After breakfast at the Swedish le-
cation, they went to the national
museum, then to the capitol to watcn
congress function. They We're lunch
con guests at the British embassy,
visited the bureau Of standards dur
ing the afternoon and late in the day
attended a reception given in their
honor by John Hays Hammond.
Tonight they were guests at a
White House dinner.
Today's schedule left the prince and
his consort tired but enthusiastically
awaiting tomorrow's events which
will culminate in the unveiling of the
memorial to John Ericsson, designer
of the Monitor of civil war fame. 1t
was chiefly to attend this ceremony,
at which President Coolidge will de-
liver an address, that they came to
the United States.
At the national museum the royal
couple bent studiously over glass
cases filled with curious, ranging
from American, Mexican and Euro
pean antiquities, sandstone slabs
marked by fossil footprints, to gi
gantic skeletons of prehistoric rep
tiles, mastedons and numerous paleon
tological specimens.
What a pity" the prince said, as
his escorts finally persuaded him tc
leave the museum. He was reluctant
to go without seeing more of its
wonders, which were of particular i'll
terest to him because of his own
archaeological researches.
At the capitol, the prince and his
party were met by Vice President
Dawes in his senate office and by
Chairman Borah of the senate foreign
relations committee, Senator Swanson
of Virginia and Edge of New JerseE,
members of the committee, and by
Chairman Porter of the house foreign
affairs committee.
The opening of the senate session
was observed from the diplomatic
gallery but the visitors departed be-
fore any business was transacted on
the floor.
Stops were made as the party
trailed the long corridors to the
house wing to give the prince and his
wife a view of the great rotunda and
the marble figures lining the walls of
Statuary Hall.

He plays the game with the utmost
nerve, daShing with zest into tight
places after the ball Notwithstanding
the flying mallets and the plunging
ponies. The king has been injured
several timesss by his daring and in
consequence of pleas in Spain that
he be more careful he gave assur-
ances that he would slacken up some
what on the spirit he threw into the
game. 1t has not been recorded,
however, that he has lost his vim,
and consequently English followers
of the sport are expecting this sum-
