Thrills! Thrills! Thrills!

From the gang wars of New Yorks toughest dis
trict-to hot family feud in Virginia.
Eddie Regain thought he was leaving trouble and
strife behind him when he sneaked away from his
gunner pals-qut the Big City cold and landed in the
apparently peaceful confines of the charming Southern
State.
But here he found more trouble. Plenty of it.
And romance, tool
You'll find thrill in every chapter-yes in nearly
every line Of Robert Terry Shannons popular best
selling serial "Bue Blood and Red" which details
the adventures Of young Regain in most graphic and
interesting manner.
"Blue Blood and Red" punges Regain into romance
with pretty Marian Thorndke daughter of wealthy
Southern family. And Regan's friend and protector
happens to be at odds with the Thorndikes!
But you'll have to read the story yourself to really
get "kick" out of it.. The first instalment will
appear in The Washington Times Monday.

HOOVER DEFENDS
i. S. PEACE MOVES
Raps Democratic Charges
That Administration Failed
to Seek World Amity.

Herbert Hoover bluntly attacked the
Democratic charge that the Republican
administration has been remiSs in peace
work. at his bi-weekly conference with
newspaper men Yesterday, and remoy-
ed the bars which he had previously
set up by allowing himself to be direct
ly quoted.
He opened the conference by de-
claring that the Democratic platform
attempted to convey the impression that
no accomplishment to the cause of
world peace had been made by the Re
publican administration. He empha-
sized that the signing of the Kellogg
BRAND treaty renouncing war, coupled
with the naval limitation treaty and
the Dawes reparation settlement, con-
Stituted a complete refutation of this
charge.
These three contributions, he said,
point to this administration as having
accomplished the greatest steps toward
international peace made by any coun-
try since the signing of the peace treaty
ending the Great War
The arrival home of Secretary KEEL
logg after the signing of his great treaty
for the remuneration of war at once
demonstrates that this is not the case
Secretary Kellogg has accomplished a
magnificent step toward world peace
by the remuneration of recourse to war
for the solution of international contro-
verSieS.
The Secretary has brought about a
change in fundamental ideas which will
affect all future international relations
The early return of Secretary Hughes
also brings to mind the tremendous &C
complishments of the Washington Arms
Conference
ITO this may well be added the solu-
ton of reparations through the COM
mission headed by Gen. Dawes.
These three contributions point to
this administration as having accom-
pliShed the greatest steps toward inter-
national peace made by any country
since the signing of the peace treaty
ending the great war"
May we quote you on that?" in
quired reporter who recovered his wits
a trifle ahead of the others for the
nominee has made it d practice in his
press conferences to decline to be
quoted for publication.

hesitation and there was furious max
ing of notes as the newspapermen
sought to recapture upon paper his
rapid fire of words. Some failed ut
terly. but the official stenographer came
to their rescue with typewriter tran
scripts.

by Sinclair for 1925 and 1926 were
listed Sl,250000 lost in the Selah Oil

HEBREWS BUILDING
GREAT UNIVERSITY
Scotchman Directs Work in Jeru-
Standardization Now
10 Years Old.

JERUSALEM tP)-A canny Scot is
bringing back to Jerusalem the glory
that was Solomons.
AS the huge buildings of the new
Hebrew University rise one by one on
the top OF Mount Scopas, overlooking
the Kidron Valley. the 73-year-old
figure of Prof. Patrick Geddes Of Edin-
burgh becomes more and more familiar
to the inhabitants of the City OF David.
They have compared him to Socrates,
Aristotle, Pythagoras and other philoso-
piers of ancient times.
The university is celebrating the first
decade Of its existence. Probably no
other university was born under
stranger circumstances. The corner
stone was laid in 1918, when the site
was surrounded by British troops and
guns, and Mount Ephraim, Samaria and
Carmel were still held by the Turks.
Prof. Geddes was chosen by Zionist
leaders to build the university for them
and he pushed the work forward with
such insistence, despite obstacles, that
Lord Ballour was able to open the first
section in 1925.
The university has risen on the exact
spot from winch the Emperor Titus dl-
rected the Romans in their assault on
Jerusalem, which ended i'll the destruc-
ton Of the city
The grand dome has been so de-
signed that it is in harmony with the

ORDERS
POLICE CLEANUP"
Promises Startling Develop
ment in Philadelphia
Graft Probe.
By the Associated Press.

PHILADELPHIA. September 8.--"Full
steam ahead" was the order of District
Attorney John Monaghan yesterday in
his drive against bootleggers. hi-iackers
and gangsters who. he declares, have
been aided in accommodating millions of
dollars through the protection of police
and police officials.
Developments even more startling
than the summary suspension of Capt.
Charles Beckman, head of the city de-
tective bureau. who was denounced by
the special grand jury investigating
underworld conditions as unfit to hold
any municipal office" were promised by
the district attorney.
Before adJourning Thursday over the
week end, after its term had been in
definitely extended, the grand jury, in a
preliminary report, recommended that
Beckman be Immediately removed, and
said there was "a direct connection be-
tween members of the police force and
well organized group of persistent law
breakers who comprise the most dan
gerous element in our community
desperate men, defiant even of the
fundamental rules under which our
citizens live"
After he had ordered Beckman'S sus-
pension, Mayor Mackey announced that
ne had asked the district attorney to
submit to the grand jury number of
reports turned in to him by commanders
of police districts. Some of these, the
mayor held, constitute evidence of
irregularities on the part of the very
police officials who prepared them"
Every policeman in the city was or
dered by Supt. of Police Mills yesterday
to clean up" Philadelphia. They were
told that they must stop the transporta-
ton, manufacture and sale of liquor and
beer. Orders were issued to halt all sus-
picious-looking trucks, question the
drivers and examine the contents. Four
men. alleged by District Attorney Mon
Afghan to have been responsible for the
diversion of much of the alcohol in the
Eastern United States, and five others
said to have been in charge of the cen
trail headquarters for the retail dis
tribution of bootleg liquor, were arrested
Thursday night.
Monaghan announced that four
City Hall detectives, subordinates of
Beckman, were in hot water" and that
subpoenas had been issued them to APP
pear before the grand jury.
