CONTROL AS BRITISH
!. CONCENTRATE FORCE
Soldiers Are an Effective Check
to Threats Of Raids by
Bedouin Tribesmen

today held Palestine under control
except for marauding bands In out
lying villages, after six days Of fight
ing between Arabs and Jews growing
out of the religious rites controversy
at the wailing wall.
Threats of trouble from Bedouin
horsemen of Trans-Jordania were re-
ported to have been effectively
checked by British soldiers. The pop
ulation of Palestine, British. Arab and
Jewish was being rapidly disarmed.
All essential services. such as tele-
graphs, railways and telephones, es-
capped undamaged during the fighting.

score Jews, including Is American
students, were killed in the sudden
and overpowering attack by mad
dened Arab mobs. was given today BY
travellers arriving in Egypt from Pal
estine.
Their narratives described horrify-
ing scenes when the horde of natives
mostly from outlying villages, de-
scended upon the town, broke into
large Jewish houses, slaughtered all
the inhabitants and mutilated the
bodies.
Not even children escaped the fury
OF the assault. Before the authorities
succeeded in restoring quiet, the at
tacking bands Of Arabs had grown
to about 5000 and had run its deadly
pillaging way throughout large part
Of the Jewish section.
10 Bodies Found
It was not until Sunday morning
that representative measures were
sufficiently successful to admit q
survey Of the situation and to begin
the gruesome task OF collecting the
dead. In one house alone 10 bodies
were found.
In practically every instance death
was caused by swords or knives. Even
young children Of two and three years,
many Of them girls, did not escape
the savagery Of the attack.
While the death roll In Hebron Is
estimated at nearly 90. only 10 Mos
lens were killed. The American jew
ish casualties In the town were in
the Rabbinical college where the
youths were pursuing their religious
studies. Twenty -nine American stu

Because of Training.

TAMPA, Fla UP).-The younger gen.
Grafton will grow up to greatness be-
cause of the widespread music instruc-
ton in the public schools, says Harry
Grant, music teacher of Hillsborough
High School here.
Music is a wonderful moralizing
force" Grant says. youngsters really
interested in music have high ideals.
They naturally develop better thoughts
by the contact with good music, which
brings a stimulus that nothing else can
provide"
Boys have entered actively into the
study of music with the death of the
idea that it was sissy" for them to
play, Grant says.

BABY PRINCESS SETS PACE
WITH HER YELLOW COSTUMES
Little Elizabeth Steals FASH
ion Thunder of Uncle,
Prince of Wales.
Vogue for Primrose Shade Is
Reflected by Leading
London Shops.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, June 15.-Little Princess
Elizabeth is stealing the thunder of her
popular uncle, the Prince of Wales. by
becoming fashion leader before she is
years old.
Primrose yellow is the favored color
in her Spring wardrobe, and all baby
London is following the style.
At the daily baby parade in Kensing-
ton Gardens every two out of three
small girls are dressed in sunshine
shades, varying from palest lime to
golden daffodil. Pink. blue and white,
the only colors once considered APP
propriate for tiny girls, are out of
fashion.
The vogue for yellow set by the baby
princess Is reflected in the baby de-
partments of the shops, where yellow
is the popular color not only for little
folks clothes, but for bassinets and
furniture.
Yesterdays white hung cots bedeck-
ed with ribbons of pink and blue, now
are eclipsed by baby beds which are
golden dreams in palest yellow SILK or
muslin. tied with dainty yellow ribbon
bows
sales folks say that they scarcely
can keep up with the popular demand
for yellow.
"A couple of years ago, If any one
wanted yellow things for a baby, we
should have had to order them especial
w." said a saleswoman in Bond street
shop. ,
Now every mother wants some little
vellow frocks for her baby girl and
many of them copy the primrose hats
and bonnets Princess Elizabeth so often
wears"
All-yellow nurseries also are in de-
mand. according to decorators and
makers of children's furniture.
This is, indeed, season OF "prim-
rose babies"

Deepest Producing Well in World

Texas boasts OF the deepest producing we'll in the
world. 1t IS located in Reagan county, away out in
West Texas. It produces from a depth of 1926 feet.
In the closing days Of June this deepest well made
new high records in output for three consecutive
days. On June q it showed a new peak Of 2665 bar
rels and a gas volume Of 24,O11, 600 cubic feet the pre-
vious day it had established a new high Of 1850 bar
rels and the day prior to that 2642 barrels.
This deepest well in the world is the property Of
the Continental Oil company.
Lest we forget, land and royalty owners Of Texas
are organizing the state over and will affiliate with
the Texas Mid-Continent Royalty Owners association.
They are calling for public gaugers to protect the roy
atty owners of the commonwealth and appeal for
united effort on the part of land and royalty owners
to meet the new proposition "for term royalty and
also to meet the objections to the proposal of Walter
Teagle for unit or community operation Of blocks Of

Senator Russek Honored

Sen. Gus Russek Of Schulenberg, Fayette county,
was elected president pro tenn of the senate in the
closing day Of the second called session Of the 41st
legislature ito serve until the next session" Well, the
next session pushed its face into the picture on the
following morning. It was a jolt for many Of the
lawmakers-not the election of Sen. RuSsek, but the
message of the governor.
Sen. Russek is a banker, he is 48, he has been a
member Of the senate of the 39th, 10th and 41st legis-
latures and will be a candidate for reelection. He
represents the 18th district, composed of Fayette, La
vaca, Colorado, Austin and Waller counties. For
many years this district was represented by the late
DR.. I. c. Clarke, who was widely known the state over.
He was a lover of the sport of kings. He bred and
trained kings and queens Of the turf. He was a ply
sician and surgeon Of standing and believed in high
class racing and all high class sports.
Gustavus put the worthy doctor away in a primary
contest-by a large majority and this was the finish
Of the movement in the upper house to bring back
the sport Of kings in a commonwealth ideal for horse
breeding and horse training purposes.

Millions for Rural Aid

lawmakers have voted millions for rural aid. They
have enacted a law by which the counties returning
high valuations will be given minimum benefits and
the counties which return low Valuations will be given
mailman benefits.
"A state board Of equalization would be the rem
edy. Then there would be uniform valuation in the
254 Texas counties and the constitution would not be
flouted as 1t is today by thousands who clamor for
the enforcement Of certain amendments to the con-
stitution and violate those which deals with taxation
and the production Of revenue for tie commonwealth
and its departments.
There are low valuation counties which take from
the school rural aid fund, greater sums than they
pay in. There are counties which pay into the school
fund larger sums than they take out of rural aid for
the support Of their schools.
Now the Texas lawmakers know this to be a fact,
a brazen and unblushing fact. Why do they remain
silent land let it go at that?"

Constitution Given RECOGNITION

An immortal document is the constitution of the
United States. A second immortal document is the
constitution OF Texas. Governor Moody signed a bill
making effective in 1880 the law requiring the con-
stitution to be taught in the schools of the common
wealth. IT'S well. 1t should have happened years
and years ago.
Every boy and every girl should be compelled to
make a study Of the constitution, including the bill
OF rights.
This is a constitutional government. There are
millions Of men and women voters in America who
appear to be in ignorance of the important fact.
They flout the constitution, they kick it aside when
1t suits their purpose, they ignore many important
provisions and there are teachers in the schools Of
the country who need the instruction given to the
pupils.

Washington Letter
By HERBERT C. PLUMMER

WASHINGTON, July 12-Theres a studio on the
upper floor of the Chilean embassy in Washington.
1t overlooks a wall Of green trees banked against
an elevation at the back Of the house.
An African musical instrument made from the
entire shell Of a tortoise rests on a table. Quaint
shaped pieces Of Chilean pottery, decorated with in
tricate designs, are scattered about. Pottery from
Europe and textiles from India are to be seen. Beau
tiful paintings hang from the walls.
1t is the retreat Of Nine. Herminia A. De Davila,
wife Of the Chilean ambassador to the United States.
And when time permits she goes there and paints.
A woman with a most vital and original person
atty is Madame Davila. There is a portrait of her
hanging from one of the walls in the embassy. It was
painted by the Rumanian artist, Negulesco. The re-
semblance is striking. The decided characteristics
that one notes in the woman were not overlooked by
the artist.

New York Letter
BY RICHARD MAssOCK

NEW YORK, July 12-Every day, excepting Sun
days, an average of s15,000,000 is carried through New
York streets for the city's banks.
Fifteen million dollars in coin and currency! What
loot a mere hundredth of that sum would be for a
gang to grab!
But the ~gangsters who walk the streets through
which this fortune passes daily, ~gangsters who would
shoot a man for a thousandth part of it, don't dare
to try a hold-up.
They know that inside each armored truck three
guards ride, ready to pour tear gas and machine gun
bullets through turret Sits at the slightest sign Of
attack.
HAULING CITY ,
Every morning the armored cars draw up to the
Federal Reserve bank on Maiden Lane, just off Wall
street.
Out Of each jumps a guard, hand on automatic
pistol He takes his place at the bank door.
Another guard stands outside the truck door. The
the conductor, steps briskly into the, bank and
returns with a bag containing perhaps a million dol
lars in currency-the days needs Of an uptown insti-
tuition.
The lookout follows him back to the truck, the
door is slammed shut and the buIlet-proof car rolls
away to it's destination.
There the observer again leaps out, looks around
and signals to the guard inside. The latter takes his
post at the opened truck door and the conductor de-
liverS his treasure between the two who stand watch.
If it's a big job, such as the moving Of an entire bank,
a machine gun is posted across the street where it
can sweep the field Of action. Under such protection
millions are transferred in a few minutes.
~%*#
THIEF-PROOF
In addition to Withdrawals and deposits Of cash
at the Federal Reserve bank, made daily to save in
terest, the armored cars and their hard-boiled crews
handle many millions in payrolls.
w. R. Huntington, vice president of the trucking
corporation, does not know exactly how much money
his men transport, nor do they. The same precau-
tions are taken when the shipment is a $3.50 payroll
or a million dollar deposit. Each car is insured for
100000 and the crew is bonded for the same
amount.
There are rs cars in the fleet. 80 Of which are used
for the daily trips between banks. These manned by
some 800 picked sharpshooters. who keep trigger
fingers in condition at their own private pistol range.
Each car is tested under ~gunfire. Each mans past is
thoroughly investigated before he is hired.
The fleets biggest job since its first car was
launched in 1922 was the moving of $4000000,000 in
cash and bullion from the old Federal Reserve vaults
to the banks new building. The next largest was
the moving Of the Chase National bank into its new
quarters.
Five hundred banks are served regularly by the
motorized vaults, and 5000 industrial or business
their own payrolls. The trucking corporation does
that, too, in an armored room at headquarters down
town.

JUST SIX YEARS

Madame Davila has been painting only six years.
Yet in that short time her work has been exhibited on
two continents. In her native city Of Santiago she
has had "one-man shows" The last exhibition of the
season at the Yorke Gallery in Washington included
some Of her work. And in both places her canvases
aroused much favorable comment.
She is prticularly interested in still life subjects.
The peculiar looking musical instrument, made from
a tortoise shell which she brought from Africa, is the
subject Of one of her paintings. She delights to put
the houses of her native land, and their interiors, on
canvas.
Madame Davila does most Of her work during the
winter and spring months. At the present she is get
ting ready to spend the summer in Europe. But she
will return to Washington next fall.
Then, perhaps, I will attempt some real serious
work" she says.
Her enthusiasm is ~linitless when she talks about
painting. Since she was a child, art has been a con-
slant source of delight to her. She never studied art
in schools, but has done serious work with artists Of
her own country.
Her master was Pablo Buchard of great reputation
in Chile.
