CALLS HIS PROPERTY
UNSUITED FOR SCHOOL
Other Northeast Sites Are More
Desirable. Home Owner
Declares.

Guy Y. Collins, 1912 Irving street
northeast today filed with the District
Commissioners vehement protest
against further consideration OF his
property as a portion of a proposed
site for q new junior high school.
Not only is the property unsuited as
70 size and topography for a school
site, Mr.. Collins told the Commissioners.
but 1t cannot be acquired within the
125 per cent limitation of its assessed
valuation Collins also pointed out
that there are other sites in the ter
ritory which the new school is designed
to serve far better suited for school pur-
poses one OF which he knows can be
purchased within the I25 per cent
limitation
I wish TO earnestly protest further
consideration of my property as a
portion Of suggested site for the To-
cation of Junior high school TO serve
the northeast suburban territory, $
Collins said in letter to the Com
missloners.
AS deeply as I feel the sense of
injury and injustice in attempts to
deprive me Of a home valued senti-
mentally high above its intrinsic value,
I would not hesitate to sacrifice my
personal interests if necessary or de-

is much vacant land available in the
northeast surburbs for school purposes.
Up TO the present time advocates of
the Eighteenth and Irving streets site
have succeeded mainly in delaying a
selection. Acting on my own behalf
and as I believe in the interest OF the
school children and the entire COM
nlunity. respectfully urge upon you
an early selection of one Of the sites
which Mai L. E. Atkins, Assistant En-
gineer Commissioner, stated before
congressional committee he could OBJ
tain within appropriation limits"

May Succeed Work.
By United Press

By United Press
SUPERIOR, Wis, June 2s.-
William v. Hodges of Denver, re-
firing Republican national COM
mittee treasurer, is mentioned here
as the probable successor of DR..
Hubert Work, Secretary of the In
terror.

his new post as chairman Of the
Republican national committee,
which entails supervision of the
Hoover-Curtis campaign.
Hodges regularity as a straight

In Colorado State politics, as well
as in the national political field,
Hodges has taken a prominent part,
devoting virtually his entire time
to Republican interests.
Advocates of his appointment
nave emphasized the Presidents
desire to reward those who have
put the party's welfare above self

one of the dominant figures in that
class.

BRITISH TRAINS
CRASH HEAD-ON;
Y KNOWN DEAD
Wreck Worst in Years in
England; Many Trapped
in Cars.

By United Press
DARLINGTON, England, June
ga swiftly moving excursion
train, carrying 200 passengers, many
of them women, collided head-on
early today with a freight train at
the South Darlington station and
the death toll thus far is twenty
two.
Five of those killed were women
and there were forty persons in hos
pitfalls, some in very serious condi-
ton.
Impact of the trains was terrific.
One witness said that the force of
the collision was so great that one
engine was tossed across the line
while the other somersaulted."
Three coaches Of the excursion train
were telescoped.
Scene Is PitifuI
There were most pitiful scenes.
The collision occurred shortly after
midnight at a darkened spot along
the roadway. The crash of the two
trains soon was followed by screams
from the passengers, injured and
trapped within the shattered cars of
the excursion train.
Rescue crews quickly we're mobil-
lied and, working by lantern light,
had to cho ptheir way through the
tangled and broken cars to reach
the victims.
Some of those injured and killed
we're horribly hutilated and identi-
fication was most difficult.
Rush Aid to Scene
Anbulances, doctors and nurses
we're modified quickly and sent to
the scene of the disaster, while hos
pitfalls close by soon we're crowded
with victims.
with the exception of the war
time wreck at Gretna, when 227
soldiers we're killed, todsy's accident
was the worst on a British railway
since 1906.

For Bertelli has been dead nearly
a century. Yet at the time the sans

French capital, years before the
rise of Napolean, the name Bertelli
was beginning to appear on door

What few royalists remained after

Just such lock is the one which
Durham has repaired. 1t was sent
here from New Orleans, where for
nearly a century it has seen service
in the old French quarter.
A bronze key was also enclosed. It
weighs a full pound, giving some
idea of the giant size of these old
handmade locks.
Ha9d-made Knobs
This lock was undoubtedly one of
the first ever made to function with
knobs Durham explains Der
tell was an experimenter. Before
his time all locks worked with
latches. 1t was he who contrived
the round knob, commonplace to-

The knobs that came with the
ancient Partisan lock from New

are of solid bronze, hand fashioned

PHILADELPHIA, September 10
Discovery of 'bootleggerS' blue book
caused District Attorney Monaghan
today to press with renewed vigor his
drive against bootleggers, hi-jackers and
eangSters. who, he declares, have
operated in this city on an enormous
scale through the connivance OF the
police. The drive is now in its fourth
week
Several witnesses who. Mr.. Monaghan
said. he expected would strengthen his
charges of police bribery were under
subpoena to appear before special
grand jury.
Has Police Names.
The blue book" alleged to contain
the names of boOtleggers, their wives
and lawyers. with the names of certain
City Hall detectives and their tele-
phone numbers, is expected to play an
important part in the investigation.
Some of the names are of persons liV-
ing in New York, Pennsylvania and
Middle Western and Pacific Coast cities.
The book was found in one of the raids
by county detectives last week. In it
the prosecutor said he had discovered
frank connection between the under
world and police circles"
1t is reported that the picture of a
wealthy bootlegger, whose name has
been mentioned in this and other LIQUOR
inquiries involving huge sums of money,
has vanished from the rogues' gallery.
This report will be the subject of a
thorough investigation. Mr.. Monaghan
said.
These matters" declared the dis
trlct attorney. SHOW which wav the
wind has been blowing for the last few
years But. striking as they are.
evidence has been gathered concerning
actual existing conditions in police dis
trlcts IN Philadelphia which are very
nad-the liberation of saloons and VIC
iouS resorts-and the evidence is con-
elusive in case under immediate con-
sideration that the policemen and the
police officials know they exist. In fact.
they admit they know it.
Tells of Probe.
THE inquiry into evidence of police
connivance with bottleggers saloon
Keepers and proprietors of resorts will
be carried as far as possible. If police
officials permit law violations, the grand
jury will want to know the reason why.
If they have been ordered to let places
alone, the grand jury will find out who
issued such orders.
No technicalities vii be permitted to
Interfere with this investigation, and
We are handling it in such a manner
that no culprit can figure on an i'm
munity bath because of his having given
testimony before the special grana ;ary.
I am not free to state what other
turns the grand jury investigation is
likely to take during the coming week.
but look forward to some important
developments, particularly in linking up
men already frequently named with
still larger operations in diversion of al
cohol to bootleg purposes"

police yesterday. Small quantities of
liquor were seized and n half dozen
persons arrested.
