Harrison made 1t plain to the court
that It would be physical impossi-
bility for the Armour and Swift groups
to comply by that date and said he
would present evidence In the hope of
obtaining additional time in the event
an agreement for such additional time
is not reached with the department.
Because certain persons and Arms
connected with the Wilson and Morris
groups had not been served with notice
Of the decree, Justice Bailey also al
lowed them until october 2 to show
cause why they should not abide by its
terms.
BY a separate order the court ex-
empted Louis H. Heyman and Edward
Morris, two of the Morris group, from
the operation of the decree so long as
they do not become or continue to be
officers, directors, agents or employees of
any Of the defendant corporations. Both
men are permitted to continue to act as
directors of the American Food Products
Co.. which is in course of liquidation.
The decree signed by the court pro-
vides for judgment on the mandate, for
the dismissal Of the leave to the can
neries to intervene, for the setting aside
of the suspension order of May !, 1925,
the denial of the canneries motion to
vacate the consent decree of February
81, 1920, and the extension of time for
compliance with certain sections Of the
original decree until October 2.

lCODGHueQ from f1SU FdRS.J
Dougherty explained, consideration
must be given to its effect on other
traffic regulations. The turn prescribed
in the standardized code as well as the
compromise method which Mr.. Harland
has in mind, he said, likely will neces-
state the adoption of a regulation per-
hitting vehicles to pass on the right at
intersections, otherwise the existing
regulations would be violated every time
vehicle drew into the center Of an
intersection and into position to COM
plete left turn and other vehicles con-
tinued across the intersection on the
proper signal.
Under the uniform highway safety
code, the left turn is made in one
operation, vehicles proceeding against
the stop signal upon completion of
turn. The compromise turn under
consideration by MFR. Harland provides
that vehicles stop in the center of the
intersection as was done under Wash
ingtons former left turn rule, and then
complete the turn on a go" signal.
The traffic director objects to the
standardized turn because 1t calls for
completion of the turn into a cross
street. with a stop signal showing in
that direction.
Broader Effect Favored.
Commissioner Dougherty hrmly be-
lieves that if change is made in the
left turn, the new method should gov
ern turns at all intersections and not
only at controlled intersections. as is
now the case. Commissioner Taliaferro
also Is said to favor uniform turn at
ali intersections
Traffic Director Harland reiterated
today that he did not propose to take
definite action on the left-turn rule
until the wishes of the public are def
initely known. He intends to ascertain
public sentiment through q round-ta-
Bile conference with representatives of
Washington's civic, trade, traffic and
motor vehicle organizations. =
st think the representatives of such
organizations should be able to present
the views of the public in general" said
the traffic director. ut is my plan to
call them into conference and ascer-
tain their. views. If IL Ia shown that

Seeking comment from drivers Of
visiting cars on the National Capitals
controversial left-hand turn, Star re-
porter was turned loose on the streets
yesterday with instructions to ask all
the questions necessary to obtain fair
consensus of out-of-town opinion on
this matter.
The days, end found the reporter
hoarse and discouraged. He had ques-
toned well, If not wisely, and at the
end found himself bruised physically
and spiritually, in addition to being
none the wiser as to just what visiting
motorists prefer in left-hand turns.
His want Of success was due In
measure to the selection of inopportune
moments to ply his questions. For ex-
ample:
Wrath and Politeness.
The driver of an Illinois car was
found listening with rapt attention to a
short talk by traffic officer, who con-
cluded his remarks, land when you
want to turn left next time pull over
to the right and wait for signal"
May I ride with you bit?" asked
the reporter, seating himself on the
luggage rack. There is question ]
have been sent out to ask" and then
he propounded the query he had been
instructed to use: What do you think
of our left-hand turn rule?"
But the copy books are all wrong.
A polite question does not turneth
away wrath.
Neither does it temper the wind to
the shorn lamb nor soften the pave
ment.
So sitting there on the asphalt he
watched the car pass on.
And he unused.
Here was a driver who must have
known the answer, because he had just
been deep in a totally one-sided discus
sion of the very subject, bnt he seemed
unwilling to pass on his knowledge.
Certainly "GueSSwork, idiotic," which
were the printable words floating back
on the gas fumes to irritated ears could
not be answers.
Or were they?
Hasty Judgment:
No mere motorist could have formed
! such an instantaneous and so decided
impression on the left turn when the
best minds" in the Traffic Bureau hac
"experimented" for six months without
a final decision.
And then, glancing back, he wen
away from there.
He would not, If he could help it, take
a traffic officer from his post of duty
but this one seemed inclined to come
over and say words and do things.
And then he remembered that he
had "hitch-hiked." boarded a moving
vehicle, ridden (for a brief space) or
| the outside of moving vehicle anc
probably INSTRUCTED traffic.
So he went away quickly.
A charming driver from South Caro-
lima seemed an appropriate victim fol

Home Plans for Aiding

By the Associated Press
n YEW YORK, June s.-Carrying
back the conviction that the
tremendous development OF
1 sport in America in the past
few years is utterly unknown
in Germany" DR.. Otto Lewald, head
of German athletic associations and
member of the executive committee OF
the 1928 Olympics, will sail for home
Monday with the results of two months
study of American athletic methods
and institutions.
DR.. Lewald, accompanied on tour
through Eastern and MidWeStern uni
versity sport plants by German aSso-
ciate, DR.. Diem, said today that he will
be able to submit to German athletic
associations "a large number of pro-
poSals which will prove of tremendous
benefit to sport in Germany" He hopes
In this way to lay the foundations for
a more formidable German Olympic in
vasion of the next Olympic games in
Los Angeles in 1882.
THE most general impression gained
during the tour" DR.. LeWald said was
that due to fabulous sporting institu-
tons and general sport activities in this
country, American athletes are far SUI
perior to those of Europe as regards
physical structure and therefore are
more efficient. The general average Of
efficiency of American athletes is far
superior to that of European athletes
On a general average American ath-
letes are about is pounds heavier
Especially noticeable is the much
greater dash and elasticity of American
athletes. Vitality is much more evil
dent"
The results of the tour will be set
down in an extensive report to be pre-
n q hV NIyin hn fro
lated into English. Dr. Lewald ex-
pressed his thanks for the "overwhelm-
lngly cordial" reception of the commits
sion and the willingness of the Anna
teur Athletic Union and other sporting
societies to show us everything"
