Dukes Counsel Sqys Greenwich
 Duchess Pardoned His Misconduct M Separating From Him h HaH
Former Mary Elsie Moore, AttEed in Attractive Brown Outfit, Takes Stand and Identifies Passport Which
 She Signed-Brother Comes to Her Defense

the stand by the plaintiff to testify that the father voted in Greenwich from 1907 10 the time of his death in December, 1914.
 The Duchess of Torlonia, attircd today in an attractive brown outfit instead of the black she wore last week, took the stand for time to testify as to both the income tax re- turn and the passport on which she etnered the United States in July and again in December, 1925.
 Her Passport Found
 The passport, which the defense claims was issued to the duchess as q visitor and gave her no right to enter as a prospective citizen, had been found since last week and was identified as that on which she en- tered both times in question. The defense contends that the entry was in coutravcntion of immigration law and that the naturalization of Duch- ess Torlonia last July was therefore illegal. A translation of the Italian used on the passport is to be made for the benefit of the court lefore the next session, which was set for Friday, December ?, probably at . o'clock. The witness admitted that she signed the passport.
 At the next hearing of the case, it was suggested today oral aCgu- mcnts of counsel are to he heard, with briefs 10 be presented subse- quent to that time.

Bridgeport, Nov. 22 P-A claim that any misconduct of the Duke Of Iorlonia prior to October 1925, was rundoued by the duchess when at that time she concluded with him a $eIaration agreement, was advanced today in superior court here by counsel for the duke in the divorce suit of his wife, the former Mary Elsie Moore of Greenwich.
 The claim was presented in the form of a reply to the dukes answer. offered to the court and al- lowed at the close of short session this morning. It was foreshadowed Ut last Wednesdays session, when Attorney Philo c. Calhoun of the duke's counsel announced that he would offer such an amendment to- day, based upon Italian law.
 The jurisdiction of the Fairfield county court, 2 bone of contention ever since the suit was first brought, was again to the fore at today's ses- sion. Merle $. Clayton of Green wich, who styled himself one who does "secretarial work" for the duchess and her mother, was on the stand to testify to filling out aEd fil- ing the income tax returns of the duchess in both 1925 and 1926. They were filed at Hartford, he said, but attempts of Attorney William II. Comley, for the duchess, to have Clayton tell what instructions the duchess had given him as to what residence was to be given for her in the returns were ncgat:vcd by sus- tained objections of Attorney Cal houn.

To the Editor of The Star.

To the Editor of The Star:
Having recently returned from an
auto trip to the Pacific Coast, 1 have
suggestion to make regarding the
form of the tags at present used in
the District.
All over the West there was a gen
eral failure TO make out where we
were from by the tag. The abbrevia-
ton Dist. Col" is totally unfamiliar
to the people of the United States.
With one accord they thought it
meants Colorado, but on. closer inspec-
ton they were puzzled by the Dist 4"
Several times we overheard discussion
on this point. Its somewhere in
Colorado" we heard several say.
Even as near Washington as south
western Pennsylvania a filing station
man remarked cheerfully, Veil,
you're a long ways from homer
This confusion may be in part due
to the fact that the slot for the bolt
comes close over the Dist" and the
head of the bolt partly obscures the
letters. If a washer is used, az usual
it still further hinders the reading of
the term.
But the main difficulty is that the
people of the country are not looking
for anything but I'D. c." as an abbre-

versally known and used. 1t is a mis-
take to use anything else.

New York's School Population.

Greater New York, which is the
official title of the big town spreading
over Manhattan Island, Staten Island
and part Of Long Island, has found a
new way of proclaiming it's size. Hold.
ing a positive population pre- -eminence
in the country, it no longer flaunts
its proportions merely in terms Of
total Inhabitants, but now announces
that its school population alone is ex-
ceeded only by the total populations
of three other cities in the United
States. The registration announced
by the board Of education this year is
1,034,S22 in the public schools and
about 180, 900 in the parochial schools,
which would give a total Of over
1,214,000 school pupils. The registra'
ton is an increase Of about 81 per
cent over last year.
The claim that the school population
of New York is exceeded by the
total populations Of only three cities
in this country may be subject to some
adjustment. There Is no question. of
course, of Chicago, which according to
the Census Bureaus estimates as of
July /, 1926, has 3,04S,000. Then there
is Philadelphia, with. on the same
basis, zoos, 900. Next, according to
the Census Bureau, is Detroit, with
1,290,0 But according to the World
Almanac, Los Angeles had on that
date, by the estimate Of local officials
100000. 1t may be that the three
other cities" claim is founded upon
the official Census Bureau estimates
and does not countenance the local
Los Angeles contention, which, II ac.
cepted, puts that city in fourth place
In the United States, relegating De-
troit to fifth.
But, however this may be, it is as
suredly something for any city to
boast about that 1t has a school popu
lation alone larger than the total in
habitants Of any but four cities in the
country. Yet such pre-eminence
brings its problems. The provision OF
educational facilities for ,214, 900 Chill

York's school bill is an immense one

Traffic Courtesy.

Judge Schuldt of the Traffic Court
has gone on record with the assertion
that there is no automobile cour-
tesy' in Washington. He expressed
this belief in f1ning violators of the
traffic regulations at Night Court re-
| Gently. and added to it the remark
that drivers so ly-nilly" here.
The judge is unquestionably right
in his opinion, and to the inconsid-
crate and discourteous Washington
drivers may be added a large number
of Maryland motorists. 1t is a sig.
nificant but distressing fact that the
tourists will encounter more examples
of road hogsissness and general in.
competence in Washington and in
Maryland than in any other locality in
the United States.
If there are any District of Colum-
bia or Maryland skeptics as to the
truthfulness Of this statement, let
them take their cars for jaunt either
west, south or north. Let them OBJ.
serve carefully the tactics Of drivers
on the open road when the horn is
blown for passing, or the manner in
which drivers Of other cities conduct
themselves at intersections. Then.
after experiencing a week or so of
courteous treatment in other States,
let them make the homeward run and
watch for the difference when they
reach the Maryland or the District Of
Columbia line.
They will observe that a toot Of the
horn, in a majority Of cases, brings
no results from the vehicle slowly
moving in the center. Of the read
ahead. They will find that it takes a
loud, continuous blast to compel a
grudgingly given quarter Of the road
for them to pass, and sometimes they
are unable to get by at all. At inter.
sections they win observe that Wash
ington and Maryland drivers apparent.
ly have no respect for solidly moving
line of traffic, but will crash in and
stop fifty cars for the selfish satisfac-
tion of getting through themselves.
Washington has been characterized
by expert motorists as the most diff
cult city in the United States in which
to drive. This opinion results not
from lack Of traffic regulations or the
incompetence of the police In enforc.
ing the rules, but from thelyery incon.
siderateness and discourtesy which
was stressed by Judge Schuldt.
Intelligent and careful motorists of
the National Capital resent the repu-
tation which Washington has ac-
quired. and which a Judge of the court
feels called upon to voice. 1t is pity
that with its high caliber Of residents
Washington should be so low in the
ranks of traffic courtesy, and cam
paign calculated to relieve this condi-
ton would be for the best interests of
the city.
