FLOW OF CANADIAN
RUM INCREASES
American Government Con-
WINGED Only Solution Is
Treaty Amendment.

BY the Associated Press.
Run running from Canada continues
to increase despite all efforts Of the
American Government, with the assist
ance being given by the Canadian gov
eminent, to prevent 1t.
The persistence OF this situation is
disclosed in diplomatic correspondence
between the two governments over q
period Of more than three yeads and
report on the smuggling conference
held in Ottawa last January, made pub
lie today by Secretary Stimson.
The correspondence shows that the
American Government is convinced the
only effective means of dealing with the
smuggling problem along the border is
by amendment of anti-Smuggling
treaty Of 1924 to deny shipments of
commodities from either country when
their importation is prohibited in the
other. The Canadian government, how
ever, has not seen its way clear to con-
sent to negotiating such an amending
treaty.
The increase in the liquor smuggling
traffic across the border was shown in
statistics presented in the correspond
ence. During the two years which ended
June 80, last, the American prohibition.
and customs oh1cials confiscated 634
boats and 964 automobiles used for
carrying liquor from boats, 46, 594 cases
of beer, 6,644 barrels of beer and 1850
cases of whisky. NJ.
In the last six months Of last year, as
compared with the previous two years,
lit boats, 46,076 cases of beer, 4,576
cases of whisky. and 375 automobiles
were seized. This was not more than
S to 10 per cent of the total liquor
smuggled into the United States over
the Canadian border, it was stated.
At the Ottawa conference the Ca
madam delegates showed readiness to
issue more stringent regulations under
the existing treaty. but were inclined to
foresee difficulties in any attempt to re-
fuse to allow liquor to be cleared from
Canada to the United States.

PHILIPPINE PRESS
is DISAPPOINTED
Comment on Davis Selection as
Governor General Adverse
in Some Quarters.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MANILA, May 16.-Disappointment
featured comment here today upon the
White House announcement that
Dwight F. Davis, former Secretary Of
War, had been offered the post of gov
ernor general of the Philippines.
The Times said the President has
made serious mistake adding, He has
gone counter to the established tradi-
lions of his party; and he has laid the
ground for the future treatment OF the
Philippines as happy hunting ground
for political job seekers"
The Bulletin tomorrow will say: "Mr.
Davis has not earned the confidence OF
the peoples resident in the Philippines.
1t is not that there Is any indictment
against Mr.. Davis. He simply Is not
Philippine schooled."
Manuel Quezon, president of the Sem
ate, said of the reports: 1T looks to me
as evidence that President Hoover's
administration intends to construe and
strengthen the policy initiated by Sec
rotary Stimson of furthering popular
and autonomous government for the
Philippine Islands. If such is the best
policy of Mr. Davis, have no doubt
that he will receive the cordial sup
port of the Philippine legislators and
of the people"

REVIEWS 30 YEARS
OF LOCAL SCHOOLS
Principal Davis Delivers Nov
ell ILLUSTRATED Lecture" Be-
fore Parent Teachers.

Combining dramatics, music and the
terpsichorean art with his oratory and
proving himself master of all four,
Allan Davis, principal of Business High
School, last night reviewed so years of
education in Washington schools and
when he was through he had concluded
that, morally, youth today IS Just about
the same as it ever was, though perhaps
less mannerly.
Mr.. Davis delivered his novel "fllus-
trated lecture" at the final meeting of
the year Of the Business High School
Parcnt-Teachcr Association, at which
time Frost Mills was reelected presi-
dent. Other officers chosen included
Mrs. w. r. Slant, vice president: Arthur
q. Cole, recording secretary; Florence
E. Grant, corresponding secretary, and
Mrs. Kate Outwater. treasurer.
In his performance, Mr.. Davis was
assisted by the Business High Shoot
Glee Club, which sang the songs of mis-
youth, and Of the years which have in
tervened, and by Miss Mary Mastro-
mario, vocalist, and Miss Marie Sawaya,
who danced with him the steps of other
years. Both girls are Business students.
Much of the address was given to a
comparison of the manners and GUS
toms of the high school boys and girls
vi tOudy Will lIlOSe VI IIlS yOulIl VI MI.
Davis younger days.
But manners-well, that's different.
for the Business High School principal
doesn't believe the boys and girls of
today have many manners. In his day:
"A boy who had danced with girl
would escort her to seat, politely in
quire whether she would care for re-
freshments: fetch them If she did, and
then. seeing her comfortably installed,
would bow his way on to his next part
ner"
Now, OH
THE music stops and with it the
dancing stops. The boys escort their
partners to seats? No, indeed! Slap
'em on the shoulder: so long! See you
later!'-and that's that"
The dancing itself is different and to
prove it, Mr.. Davis Whirled over the
auditorium stage with Miss Sawaya in
his formally polite grasp in the polka,
the old-fashioned waltz and the sciot-
fish. Then for good measure, he called
upon a group of his students to dance
the Virginia reel.

Failure to Agree in
First Case.

Curtis Carter, 26, a policeman OF the
fifth precinct, was acquitted today by
a jury in Criminal Division 2 before
Justice Siddons of a charge of violating
the Jones-Stalker law by transporting a
quantity of whisky on March II. Carter
was tried two weeks ago, but the jury
failed to reach an agreement and a
retrial was necessary.
Carter was arrested by Motor Cycle
Policeman Matthew Chmylko, eleventh
precinct, in an automobile with an I'M
identified man after q pursuit for a
long distance on Good Hope road. The
other occupant of the car escaped.
When Chmylko examined the automo-
bile he said he found 142 quarts of

officer contended that Carter had
arrested the man for possession Of in
toxicants and was bringing the prisoner
and the liquor to the station when
arrested. The prisoner escaped and
has never been apprehended.

COOL WAVE COMING
FOR NEXT TWO DAYS
Drop to As Degrees Tonight Ex-
pected, Which Is Hard
on Straw Hats.

Those who haven't tucked the old felt
hat away for the Summer have gotten
some inside DOPE" for Forecaster
Mitchell promises that for the next two
days the Winter headgear will be in
decidedly more vogue than the more
airy straws.
This afternoon the thermometer will
begin a gradual decline, and by tonight
will have dropped to As degrees. where
1t will hover for the next two days. The
cool wave will be accompanied by strong
northwest winds, possibly reaching gale
force by tonight, and will begin to
gradually diminish tomorrow and to-
morrow night and probably fade into
oblivion by Saturday, when the weather
will begin to become more seasonable
The Weather Bureau promises clear
skies while the cool spell prevails, but
showers are expected Sunday. The
mercury will begin gradual rise on
Saturday afternoon, and from then on
seasonal temperatures are expected to
prevail.
While no records are expected to be
broken, Forecaster Mitchell said today
that the low temperatures expected for
the next two days will be decidedly
lower than those experienced for some
years past, and the condition was due
to a general disturbance now prevailing
in the Northwest and Canada.

THE retail liquor bill of the Ameri-

no doubt whatever tt@ct If the saloons

Mr.. Pickett thus placed the direct an
