Social Set at Newport
Prepares for 1929 Season.
Although the chilling breezes of Au-
tumn seem to indicate that next Sum-
mer is almost too far distant to come
within the scope of realization. Soclety
folk at Newport are busily laying plans
for the 1929 season. Two villas that
have been under construction during
the last two years will be ready for oc-
cupancy in June.
They are the new home of Mr.. and
Mrs. William FahneStock of New York
on the former James A. Stillman es-
tate on Narraga1sett avenue and Stony
brook, the residence of Mr.. and Mrs
Edward c. Knight, jr.. of New York, on
Indian avenue. The Fahnestocks who
recently concluded their seasons stay
at Southside, have taken an apartment
at Pine Lodge, where they will remain
until early October.
Judging from the rentals already
made for next Summer the demand for
villas will come earlier and will be
greater than usual. Mr. and Mrs. Rob-
ert D. Huntington of New York, who
passed their first Summer at Newport
in the de Rham cottage. have rented
Edward j. Berwind's cottage. Middle

used by the mill barons in their at
tempt to terrorize the tens Of thou
sands of textile strikers, was record
ed when Elizabeth Dennele was ar
rested yesterday for leading a picket
line of singing strikers children.
A Jail sentence of thirty days was
imposed upon Bessie Katsikaros, who
is charged as a second offender in the
singing of strike songs and thereby
disturbing the peace"
More than forty of the most mil
liant strikers and their leaders have
been arrested and sentenced to months
in Jail on the charge of violating this
or similar flimsy ordinances. Arrests
for disturbing the peace" were first
made when the picketers shouted
"scab" at the few straw bosses acting
as strikebreakers. Arrests are now
made of any striker caught even
whistling strike tune.

With citation Of fact after fact,
showing the Shiny history of graft

Jewish Communist Daily Freiheit
editorially exposes as the rankest
hypocrisy the statements of Sidney
Hillman and his socialist organ the

Hillman after the graft exposures,
and that they are sorry to see those
indicted for graft dismissed from the

that Hillman is being flooded with
congratulations for his speedy dismiss
sails of the three indicted officials, do
ing nothing about the high-ups in

The editorial proves that Hillman,

years of an existing and function

while neither investigated nor acted
with speed in the matter. This was
because Hillman could not maintain

In spite of the fact that the secre-
tary Of commerce of the Harding and
Coolidge administrations is the heir
of Coolidge and the man-higher-up to
the professional slush-funding poll
ticians like William S. ('boss") Ware,
of Philadelphia, Hoover is of a diff

is an engineer and efficiency techni-
clan who, if elected next November,
would relate the White House more
frankly and directly than ever before
to the executive offices of the United

tary of commerce, since his appoint

devoted his talents to improving facil-
