Shonid Rnslness Hesitate .

A number of great industries that
rely on tradition are asking ques-
tions in Washington with the view of
trying to discover whether business
is going to hesitate in this presiden-
tial year. So far as Washington
knows anything about the situation,
there is no danger of let-up in
business activities, incident to the
political or Industrial condition of
the country. Too much, unfortu-
nately seems to depend upon Wall
Street, where gambling is booming.

DEAD MAN'SSTO
WATCH RECOVERED
Former 0rderIies at GaIIinger
Hospital Held on Grand
Larceny Charge.

Last June it was reported to police
that a gold watch was missing from the
effects Of man who died at Gallinger
Hospital as result of injuries received
in an automobile accident. Yesterday
the watch was recovered in a second
hand store and today two men, both of
whom were employed as orderlies at the
hospital at the time of the alleged theft
are under arrest charged with grand
larceny.
Arrested by Headquarters Detectives
Carlton Talley and L. M. Wilson, they
gave their names as Cecil r. MIllnix
80 years old, and Claude M. Burroughs.
80 years old. Mulnix was employed at
Gallinger at the time of his arrest, but
according to the detectives. Burroughs
no longer works there.
The watch was the property Of Jonn
Teachum of SIG Sixth street northeast.
Teachum was fatally injured In an a..
cident and died at the hospital on
June 3. His wife. Mrs. Theresa Teach
UNI, told police that when his belong
ings which he had at the hospital
we're returned to her, his watch was
missing. An investigation at the time
failed to reveal the thieves or the
whereabouts of the watch.
The watch was finally located bv a
check-up on all local second hand
dealers, and through the storekeeper
information was obtained which led to
the arrest OF Burroughs and Mulnix.

Should he pass the exceedingly rigid
examinations upon the conclusion of
his long training period he enters the
service as a vice consul and faces years

Oppose Political Action.
There is no disposition on the part of
career men, however, to take the power
of appointment and removal of Am
basSadors and Ministers from the Presi-
dent. They feel that this Is right
the President should have. and a right
which is guaranteed to him under the
Constitution
They do believe, however, that a
man who has devoted his life to the
service of his country abroad, who has
severed his ties with home and friends
and submitted himself entirely to the
calls of his duties, should not be re-
moved from the service merely as a
political expedient.
President Coolidge has shown no dis
position ito go into the matter. 1t was
learned at the White House. Whether
the career men who have been elevated
to the posts of chiefs of, embassy or
legation should remain at their posts
after the present administration goes
out, he has let it be known, is a met
ter for the next President to decide.
The President is satisfied that the
Constitution gives him authority to
select his own diplomatic representa-
tives and that 1t is for him to decide
whether they shall be from the ranks
of the career men In the foreign serv-
ice or from the outside.
President Coolidge, 1t is said, real
ICES that this country has been en-
deavoring for number of years to
build up foreign service Of the high
est quality by promotions within the
ranks, but he feels at the same time
that there should be some precautions
taken to prevent the establishment of
a purely elf-perpetuating foreign serv-
ice system.

FOUR HURT IN CRASH
OF TRUCK INTO TREE
Machine Driven by Police Captains
Son Leaves Road-Two Girls
and Boy Also Injured.

Four persons we're injured, three OF
them seriously. early last night when

son of Police Capt. Ira Sheetz,
crashed into a tree while rounding q
curve on the Conduit road at Cropley
Md. near Great Falls. In addition to
Sheetz badly injured were Ada Guillot
is. and Helen Strobel. II. The fourth
victim was Clarence Penn, IA
All we're taken to Georgetown Uni
versity Hospital by Francis Day and
Francis Hill, both of Cropley, who wit
messed the accident. Day said he saw
the truck on the road and Just as it
started to make the turn he heard the
occupants scream, and a few seconds
later 1t crashed into tree on the side
of the road, skidded around and went
partly down an embankment, but did
not capsize.
Hill said Penn and the Strobel girl
were thrown free Of the truck, but that
the impact telescoped the front end
of the truck into the small cab, pinning
both Sheetz and the Guillot girl inside.
Sheets was caught under the steering
wheel
The Guillot girl was cut by glass,
there being several deep gaShes In her
throat and on her face and forehead,
She is the most seriously injured.
Sheetz is believed to have suffered inter-
nal injuries, while the Strobel girl
had several decorations on her scalp.
Penn had only few bruises on his
wrist.

under the smoke screen of intolerance
and religious prejudice
In Nebraska the religious issue has
been brought forward by Democrats,
too, who have sought to make 1t appear
that the whole opposition to Gov Smith
was because of his membership in the
Catholic Church. And here, as in other
States, there is tendency to divide on
religious lines. There is a very consid-
cradle number of Catholics in Nebraska
but far greater number Of Professionals
DeplOre Religious Issue.
Both Republicans and Democrats de-
plore the fact that religion has entered
the campaign as en- issue. But they
recognize 1t is there. The feeling
aroused is too strong, they say, to de-
terminate 1t now

that many of the German Americans

But take 1t by and large the State is
dry. This sentiment Is no aid to the
cause of Gov. Smith here. Where he
may gain Republican wet votes he will
lose, 1t is said, more Protestant Demo-
cratic votes
