NARCOTIC CHARGES
HURLED BY BLEASE
CaroIinian Informs Senate
"Joints" Are Operating
Near Capitol.

Charges that narcotic joints" are
in operation within a few blocks of the
Capitol were made in the Senate to-
day by Senator Blease, Democrat, OF
South Carolina. Senator Blease also
declared that several Chinese have been
killed here without any one having been
tried in connection with the deaths.
His reference to the narcotic trafic
came on the heels of the speech de-
livered in the Senate Saturday by Sem
ator Howell. Republican. of Nebraska,
in which he declared the President could
bring about prohibition enforcement in
the National Capital by exercising the
power he has over District officials.
When the Senate met today Senator
Blease took the floor and asserted:
Tells of Information.
"I am informed by reliable parties
that within two squares of Peace Mon
ument on Pennsylvania avenue there
are today four narcotic joints being
run and that that fact is known to peo-
pie whose duty it is to close them
The Senator made this statement
after devoting ssverel minutes to the
discussion of proceedings in the dis
trict st:orney's office regarding a Chi
nese death.
For some time back" Senator
Blease began. earnest efforts have
been made TO check the dealing ir
opium in this city. which efforts caused
some of our officers to be placed in very
grave danger. Those who we're inter.

The link youth was walking into the
yard of his home when he suddenly saw
flames licking at the curtains at the
kitchen window. Bursting into the
building, he, found the kitchen entirely
ei1veioped in flames, which were fast
spreading to other sections of the house

PREMIER MAY STAY
At WHITE HOUSE
Macdonald May Be Guest Of
President at Least Three
Days Next Month.

J. Ramsay Macdonald, the British
premier will probably stay at the White
House three Of the five or six days he
will be in Washington next month.
= 1t Is known that President Hoover is
4nxious to have the British premier as
a guest and would really like to have
him at the White House during the
whole Of his visit, but he realizes that
the latter would most likely want to
stay for a short while at the British
embassy. The President also is eager
to take his distinguished visitor to his
camp in the Virginia mountains. where
they might enjoy the life in the open
for a couple of days and where they
could talk to their hearts contents
without interruption and amid most in
spring surroundings.
Depends on Weather.
The trip to the mountain camp will
depend almost entirely upon the
weather. The President has reason to
know that 1t is much cooler in the Blue
Ridge Mountains than 1t is in Wash
ington, and as there are no heating
facilities other than fireplaces, it is
not thought likely that the President
will propose such an outing unless the
weather is warm at the time.
The complete itinerary of Premier

said at the White House today that the
premier will most likely go to the em-
bassy for his first nights stay in the
Capital A formal visit. however, will be
made by the Premier at the White
House soon after his arrival late the
afternoon of october 4, which visit will
call for a return formal visit on the part
of President and Mrs. Hoover.
Stimson to Stay Here.
It is understood also that Secretary
of State Stimson, who has been desig-
mated to officially receive The premier
upon his arrival, will not go to New
York to meet him at the dock. as was
first suggested, but will welcome him
upon his arrival at the Union Station in
this city.
One of the Assistant Secretaries OF
State will extend the official welcome &C
the premier on his arrival in New York
and will accompany him on the special
train that will bring him to the Capital
It has not been learned yet just what
room in the White House will be turned
over to the premier or which one will be
assigned to his daughter, Ishbel, who is
accompanying him as official hostess.
