HOWARD u. FOOT BALL
ISSUE UP FOR PARLEY
Action by University, Which
Caused Players to Quit Training,
Subject of Conference Tonight.

Representatives of the Howard Uni,
versity foot ball squad and officials of
the institution will meet tonight in an
effort to iron out a problem created
by the university's refusal to give
free room and board to the varsity
team during the gridiron season, and
which resulted in the team turning in
its equipment yesterday and refusing
to play any longer.
1t has been the practice of the uni
versity in seasons past to exact no
charge from members of the foot ball
team for room and board during the
season, but last Friday an order was
issued, calling on the players to make
the regular student payment for room
and board. This action was taken by
the university, it was explained. to
avoid clothing the team with a
ringer" atmosphere.
The players met the announcement
with a somewhat rebellious spirit and
broke training, but We're persuaded
to go through with a game with Blue
field, w. Va, the following day. They
did and lost. Is tot, the first defeat,
it is said, in several years.
The point was raised on behalf of
the foot ball players that while the
season is on they are handicapped in
earning money on the outside, and
therefore in return for their foot ball
services they should be spared the ex-
pense of providing for their room and
board. Seven games remain on the
Howard eleven's schedule.

$751; ,309 SUIT BASED
ON VAL LUE OF FORD STOCK
Woman Files Action Against In

suit of Tax Payment.
BY the Associated Press.

by tne ASSOcldteU IIes5.
DETROIT, October 4.-The value
of Ford Motor Co. stock in 1913 was
one of the points at issue in the
S2,627,309 suit of Mrs. Alice Gray
Kales against the commissioner of in
ternal revenue in United States Dis
trict Court here yesterday.
Mrs. Kales, one of the former mi
nority stockholders of the Ford Motor
Co. prior to the purchase of the mi
nority holdings by Henry and Edsel
Ford in 1919, seeks the return of
that amount, with 6 per cent in
terest. which she paid as income tax
on the profit from the sale of her
stock.
Mrs. Kales during the 1919 pur-
chase by the Fords sold her 525
shares for $6,562 500, or S12 500 share.
Previously the Government had val
ued the stock as oof March /, 1918,
as S9,4S9.34 a share. AT that time
Mrs. Kales paid income tax reckoned
on the difference between the 1913
valuation and the 1919 sale price.
The Internal Revenue Bureau in
1925 asked $2,627,309 additional ON
the ground that the 1913 valuation
was only ST. 634 a share. After pay
ing Mrs. Kales brought suit to re-
cover.
Other former minority stockholders.
however. including Senator James
Couzens. John w. Anderson, Horace
H. Rackham and the John +. and
Horace E. Dodge estate. took their
case to the Board of Tax Appeals.
The appeal. involving more than
$50, 100000, still is pending.

Athens in 1880. will bring us fresh
documents. A vast future opens to US

NEW YORK, October 4.-The con-

ence e. s. Knapp, Republican, for.
mer secretary of State. was guilty
of malfeasance in office, led today
into the realm of presidential politics.
Mrs. Knapp, dean of the college of
home economics at Syracuse Univer-
sity, said the charges emanated from
Democrats in revenge for the attack
on Gov. Smith and Tammany Hall.
made at the Republican State conven-
ton in Rochester last week by Col.
Theodore Roosevelt.
In his keynote speech Col. Roose-
welt said that the tiger could not
change his spots and that the shadow
of Tammany Hall lay over Washing
ton. He blamed Democratic leaders
for vice in Albany, the State capital.
Resentment Against Speech.
In the midst of much resentment
against his speech by Democrats and
some Republicans, Col. Roosevelt, be-
fore the Ninth Assembly District Re
publican Club here last night, said he
stood four-square behind the state
ments he made in Rochester.
Their proof is attested by the
anger of the opposition he said.
On the Democratic side of the presi-
Dental discussion, Mayor Walker COR
rOborated reports that he had been
shadowed on his recent tour of Eu-
rope. Representative Cellar of Brook
lyn wired Mr.. Walker that he was
willing to introduce a resolution call
ing for congressional investigation OF
the reports.
Charges Are Denied.
Gov. Smith remained out of the
controversy over the charges against
Mrs. Knapp, and had nothing to say
the reported espionage
against Mayor Walker. The governor
said that State Attorney General Al
bert Ottinger would investigate the
accusations of the citizens census
committee that Mrs. Knapp was
guilty of maladministration of a ST..
100000 appropriation for State census
in 1925.
Mrs. Knapp at her home in SYRIA

that she destroyed census records and
paid unearned salaries to relatives
and other unnecessary employees.
She insisted she had managed the

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER
From National Editorial AssOciatiOn1
ESPECIAL TO cHRoNIcLE1

Washington, November Pit is
only natural that on the eve of a
presidential campaign that political
groups should propose another orgy
of congressional investigation. There
is a possibility that the demand for
inquiries into the Executive Branch
of the government may be boom
erang resulting in similar investgat-
ions into the activities of legislators.
The congressional investigators put
themselves in the spotlight as con-
scientious guardians of the peoples
rights, but quickly run for cover
whenever it is proposed to subject
their affairs to similar scrutiny.
The recommendations. of the spec
ial committee investigating the Mis-
sissippi River flood will be made
public within few days. Secretary
of Commerce, Hoover, has stated
that the enlargement of the bikes
along the river and its tributaries
is the best way to prevent another
disaster when the waters of the
river have reached dangerous
heights. 1t is obvious Congress will
be called upon for expenditures in
excess of fifty million dollars as
part of the governments contribu-
ton to the protection of life and
property in the Mississippi Valley.
The engineers and members of Mr..
Hoover's committee will appear be-
fore the House Appropriations Com
mittee in explanation of their re-
Communications when the Committee
meets this month.
Those interested in farm relief
legislation were surprised at the
figures presented to the American
Bankers Association Convention at
Houston, Texas, last week. Mr..
Silas H. Strawn of Chicago, Presi-
dent of the American Bar Associat-
ion, giving as his authority Secre-
tary of Agriculture, Jardine, declar-
ed that farmers are more prosper
GUS than ever and that agriculture
has regained 81 per cent of its pre-
war prosperity. The program of
various factions interested in agri-
culture has not taken definite shape
because dissention has broken the
ranks of the so-called bloc. The
controversy centers upon the pro-
posed equalization fee.
