A group of entertainers, boxers
and wrestlers last night trans
formed the District Jail from a
grim and foreboding structure to
a theater and sports arena
packed full of fun, giving the
7OO-odd inmates real laugh.
The party was staged by The
Washington Times through the
courtesy and wholehearted CO.
operation Of Lieut.. Col. William
L. Peak, superintendent OF the
Jail. The entire unit show" at
the Palace Theater donated It's
services for the evening led by
AL Evans, master of ceremonies.
Getting under way with box
ing bouts shortly before 9 p. m.
the show ran until nearly 11:3O
o'clock. Between the bouts were
musical numbers by the Rita
Roman Noveletts Orchestra, an
AGGREGATION of girls. Every time
the girls poured forth their mel
odies, the bouts were held up
until the audience was willing to
let the girls rest awhile. Their
iazz numbers hit the spot for
the boys in the tiers-the north
and south wings-and the lads
weren't a bit bashful about ask
ing for more music.
Sinclair Sees Show
Harry Sinclair, who is serving
a contempt sentence in the jail
and who is the Jail pharmacist,
watched the show from a window
looking from the second floor
into the rotunda.
Also watching the show and
wearing big smiles were Robert
A. Mcpherson, indicted as the
slayer of his wife, Virginia, ano
Dexter C. Dayton, under lndlct
ment for the murder Of Mar
jorie ODonnell in the Roosevelt
Hotel recently. They were al

College Fraternities
Subject to Liquor
Law Search

BELLEFONTE, Pa, Nov. II.
College fraternities are subject
to search, seizure and closing
5 as well as any other kind OF a
club house for a violation OF
the liquor laws. is the opin-
ion of Judge M. Ward Fleming,
as given to authorities at State
College by request.
The judge said:
"Most fraternities are char
tered organizations; as such
they are out of the class OF
private homes. FraternltleS
exist to promote social life.
Hence, in the eyes Of the law
college fraternities do not differ
from any of the traternal
oxdasA eg social clubs"

THE time has come" he said,
when we should remove starva-
ton of women and children from
the weapons of warfare"
This matter of making food
ships immune from attack. To-
gether with the broader question
of freedom of the seas" has a
direct bearing on the question of
naval reduction.
The Washington times., 1929-11-12


This challenge, boldly expressed
and shot through with sincerity
was put before the worlds great
naval powers last night, by PreSi-
dent Hoover.
1t constitutes the foundation
stone of American naval policy
to be followed when the powers
assemble at the London con-
ference in January to discuss not
only limitation of navies but
actual reduction as well.
How much will you cut?" Is
DO be the query propounded by
the American delegation to the
representatives of Great Britain.
Japan, France and Italy.
France already has indicated
she will propose the abolition Of
the great capital ship, so costly
to construct and to maintain.
Great Britain wants to abolish
the submarine.
Probably neither of these pro.
posels can be accepted in its en-
tirety by the London conference.
But President Hoover made it
clear in his Armistice Day ad-
dress that so far as the United
States is concerned, his admin
stration is willing to consider
favorably any and all propositions
that point to proportionate naval
reduction.
And" he said simply, lit can
~ot no fnn lou for IiS -
The inference left b, Mr.. Hoo
yer was that if the naval rival
ries of Europe can be reconciled
TO the point of sacrificing sub
marines and capital ships, this
government would willingly &C
along.
See Ratio to Be Maintained
BY proportionate naval reduc
ton, Mr.. Hoover obviously meant
the maintenance of the genera
ratio laid down by the Washing
ton Conference eight years ago
which was parity as between
great Britain and the United
States in all classes Of ships, anc
lesser ratio for Japan, France
and Italy, according to theil
needs. The figures were 5 each
for Great Britain and the United
States, 3 for Japan, and 1.6 fol
the rival Mediterranean powers Of
France and Italy.
It was with this basis in mine
that the President so boldly anc
80 positively threw out the chal
lenge that naval reduction can
not go too low for the Unitec
States.
It remains now to be seen how
far Franco-British and Anglo
Japanese, and Franco-Italian diff
ferences and suspicious can bt
allayed. and how far they will bt
willing to go. Mr.. Hoover;
speech doesn't leave much to bt
said for the American attitude.
Collaterally with this pro
nouncement of American nava
policy, President Hoover made g
proposal which he said he wanted
the world to ponder and con
slider.

 Even many I.oudonurs may have asked that question recently when they discovered that the Dame of Sark was minEing among the shop pcrs Of the British capital.
 "Sark is one oC the islands or the British-owned Channel group off the north coast Of France" says q bulletin from the Washington, n. C. headquarters of the National Geographic Society.

 Tourists can 'sichtsec' SarIs in New York or London fashion in a few hours, but if they arc Nature lovers, they will have their steamer tickets extended for at least a few days. The steep cliffs of Sarl> have been ChIsolcd by the waves Of the Channel into cavcrns containing arches, tracery work and pillars and tunnels that lure even the tmid to negotiate dangerous paths. Rr- fleCting these fantastic displays are clear water pools where one can watch fish glide about, 95 feet be- low the surface.
 Flowers Blanket Many Acres
 "Sark is almost two islands Greater Sark, the northern and larger portion, is connected with Little Sark by a jagged rock cause way called the Coupcc, which rises 300 feet above the sea. From the roadway on ifs narrow summit tray clers look eastward toward Jersey and westward toward Guernsey and Hcrm. Both panoramas have iuspir- ed many artists.

Golden-brown, hot, crisp, crun-

can have every morning if you
choose your bread carefully.

browns evenly to a picture-like
texture that tempts even a capri
cious early morning appetite. The
slow baking gives a fine, even tex
ture to the slice. There are none
of those gaping holes in Rice's
Bread that allow butter or jam
to leak unexpectedly and discon-
certingly through.
The full, delicious flavor and
aroma tells you that Rice's is
made with fresh, rich milk. The
slow, even baking of the famous
Split Top Loaf makes a thorough
ly wholesome and digestible loaf.
Notice the way Rice's always re-
tains it's moisture inside, and its
crustiness outside. Even the last
heel end of the loaf is appetizing,
delicious. -
