TAK0MA PRESENTS
NEEDS FOR SCHOOL
Citizens Association Committee
Tells Board of Education of
Probable Requirements.

The committee on schools of the
Takoma Park Citizens Association has
advised the Board of Education of it's
probable school requirements as to land
and buildings for the five-year period
from July l, 1880, to June 80. 1888, and
after careful consideration OF the sub
Ject has forwarded it's recommends
lions, which were unanimously ap-
proved by the committee.
The committee recommends that
larger playground facilities be provided
for the 1akoma School, Cedar street
and Piney Branch road, by the pur-
chase OF additional land, adjacenC to
The present school site.
The Whittier School, Fifth and
Sheridan streets, will soon be over
crowded, according to the COMMITTEES
ana urges that The auditorium gym
nasium and eight additional classrooms
be provided wlGhin the five-year period.
An eight-room school unit should be
provided on the Kalmia road site.
The securing of site, preparation of
plans and at least portion of the
oullc1ng completed for a northern
senior nigh school, to be located north
OF kennedy street and east of Rock
creek Park, should receive the con-
SHERATON OF the school board. as the
committee does not favor the Iowa
aVenue-Upshur street site, now under
consideration, to be known as the
Theodore Roosevelt High School. The
committee went on record last year as
opposing this site, since it was felt at
tnat time, as well as the present time
that a northern high school should be
located much farther north than the
site now being considered.
Inc commlCtee also recommends that
as the first unit of the Paul Junior
High School will undoubtedly become
overcroWded before 1885, provision
should be made for the erection of two
addltlonal wings to this building.
Ine committee feels that the Board
OF Education should consider the ad-
visibility OF locating an additional
junior nigh school in the Sixteenth
Street Heights S-Takoma Park section. as
the superintendent of schools at a hear
ing last year referred to the need for
an additional junior high school in the
area. "a n

PRESS TWO PROBES
IN PHILADELPHIA
ACquittaI of Former Police
Captain Does Not Deter
Investigations.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, october 27.-Two
lines of inquiry. one directed toward
the activities of unit No. l., disbanded
liquor raiding squad OF the Police De-
partment and the other aimed at the
identity of depoSitors of nearly $4,000
900 in banks, held the attention today
of District Attorney Monaghan, who is
directing the grand jury investigation
of rum runners and police corruption.
The acquittal by a jury last night of
Charles Cohen, former police captain,
who was charged with extorting money
from saloonkeepers for protection, gave
the district attorney his first important
setback since the inquiry started on
August 20. OF the two score police ar
rested on similar charges, four are
awaiting sentence. Dates for the trials
of the others have not been set.
Matthew Patterson, Republican or
ganization ward leader, was jointly con-
victed with Charles w. Schoenleber, a
former police captain.
Declared Not Discouraged.
Aides of the district attorney said
that he was not in the least discouraged
vestigation would be continued with re-
neWed vigor.
Frank de Rose, patrolman, who was
on trial jointly with Cohen, was dis
charged when the prosecution told the
court it did not have sufficient evil
dence. Albert Long, district detec-
tive, who turned States evidence and
testified that he had collected protec-
ton money for Cohen and had received
a 25 per cent split, is. at liberty under
bail.
Another Arrest Made.
A few hours after the Common Pleas
Court jury brought in its verdict in the
Cohen case, county detectives arrested
Charles c. Beckman on charges of per-
jury. The charges grew out of alleged
contradictions in his testimony before
the grand jury and later at his trial
before the Civil Service Commission.
Beckman was suspended as head of
the detective bureau when the grand
jury declared him unfit to hold public
office" and after trial before the Civil
Service Commission he was dismissed
from the service by Director of Public
Safety Harry c. Davis

PROPOSAL TO ABOLISH

French Protest Resulted In Limitation of

Lord Cushendun.

II friendliness to one nation is always
taken as hostility to another.
1T was the aim of the British policy

been dissolved. There was not a word
of truth in the theory that at Geneva

subServient to France, with injustice
to Germany.

ment is not particularly promising at
the moment. We shall not relax our
efforts, but it is not easy to see what
we can do If. whenever we manage to
come to an agreement with any power,

BLACKPOOL, England, october 81
Great Britain proposed complete aboli-
ton of submarines in consulting with
France regarding further naval arma-
ment limitation, Lord CuShendun, act
ing foreign secretary, revealed in an
address Thursday night on the Anglo
Franch naval accord. However, as
France would agree only to limitation
of the larger ocean-going underwater
vessels. this was accepted by Britain.
The acting foreign secretary de-
nounced critics who have been aroused
to anger and suspicion by the Anglo
French accord.
"The very persons who most inces-
sanity cry out for agreement between
nations are thrown into paroxysmS of
anger and suspicion by the govern
ment coming to an amicable orange
ment with France" said Lord Cushen-
dun. 1T is difficult to see how we could

"That there was some news in which
you might be pterec:ed. AS a matter
of fact, it is impossible to say as yet
whether even that really concerns you.
However, on the fact of it, it seemed
worth discussing"
What is it you have found?" From
Don's dry throat the words emerged as
little more than hoarSe whisper.
mot 1; I've merely been asked to
inquire into it bit-and, as told you,
I am still in the dark. Have you read

II haven't looked at a paper for a

Don twisted his hands nervously in
his lap. There was the tension of long
continued strain behind the irascibility
in his voice. At first glance he looked
noticeably thinner than on his previous
visit; but a careful observer would have
noted that the effect was due not so
much to actual loss of weight as to the

his eyes.
Language is an absurdly ambiguous
instrument of communication" the
doctor meditated, completely ignoring
Don's agitation. "For example, that
last sentence of yours. On the face of
it, it might mean that you are indiffer-
ent to all else but Sheila'S welfare and
her possible danger-or it might ,mean
that you hoped above all things that
Sheila would not be found. Naturally
I assume that the first Interpretation
is the correct one"

gleam of eagerneSs shone in Don's hol-
low eyes-"Unless I could get a divorce
on grounds of desertion. Do you think
I could?"
"No doubt. But that's not the par
ticular bridge we are crossing at the
moment" DR.. Cavanaugh ruthleSsly
pulled him back.
Well then, suppose she came back
with all this turmoil there's been in
the papers. I'd be in a sweet position
then, wouldn't I? Things would be as
bad as before-no, a hundred times
worse, because the one thing I put my
