a spirit of hepfulness and goodwill between the two
countries
Dr. Stafford will attend the fifth seminar of the COM
mittee to be held at Mexico.
While social conditions generally will be studied the
Mexican government in keeping with its improved and
aggressive educational policies of recent years. is

Broadcasting Hoodlum Capone's Philosophy

Col Robert Isham Randolph president Of the Chicago
Association of Commerce, in interview by Edward
Price Bell in the Chicago Daily Ne1S, of June 81 is
quoted saying:
"Al Capone, the overload of Chicago boozedom, who
was welcome in Philadelphia jail than he seems
to be in cosmopolitan Miami, has philosophy that is
hard to He is reported as saying sell good
liquor and honest gambling houses and don't see
why any than the highly respectable gentle
men who buy my booze and patronize my gambling
joints"
Honest gambling houses" and hghly respectable gen.
tlemen who buy and patronize gambling joints"
What gross contradictions in terms Typical premises for
hoodum philosophy"
1t is, indeed unfortunate that this so-called phos-
ophy of the unspeakabe Capone should be heraded by
a man occupying the position of Col Randolph, with the
acquiescence that such philosophy is hard to answer
incredible that from the headquarters of an Or
ganization recently enlisted to fight hoodlums, there
should broadcast the abi which the of hoodlums
advances for his criminal activities, in manner that
gives his brazen boosted lawesness the sembance OF
right and responsibility.
Surely if Chicago hopes to pull herself out of the
slough of awlessness in which size mred the activities
of the House of Capone and its terrorzng should

sanction from any 1awabding lawrespectng source

Letters to the Editor
Editor, The Times:

Editor, The Times:
There is undoubtedly an ex
ploSive police scandal imminent
in Washington, but it is earnestly
to be hoped that it does not in
terfere with or block the passage
of the police and firemen's pay
bill now before the Senate.
believe l voice the sentiment
of the vast majority of Washing
tonianS when say that one Of
the sureSt correctiveS of the pres
ent police situation will be the
raising Of the wages of patrolmen
so that they can live at least de-
Gently md respectfully on what
they earn legitimately. 1t is my
opinion that only a small per-
centage of the force is linked
with the underworld in graft and
'Shakedown" practices or in bring
ing diScredit upon the city.
This defiant and dishonest nj.
nority of patrolmen, detectives
and "higher-upS" should not be
allowed to ruin the reputation
or the morale of the entire de-
partment; but this is exactly
what will happen if the police
and firemen'S pay bill, which vir-
tually the entire Congress con-
cedeS is necessary, should be held
up now because of the nasty and
noisome scandal which has de-
veloped regarding two detectives,
a patrolman and their associates.
We should never lose sight of
the constant menace of death or
serious injury which confrontS
the policeman, or the tempta-
tlons to which he is subjected.
We must not forget the work of
the Rescue Squad; the long
hours, often in the worst kind of
weather, which the policeman
puts in along his beat, or the
essential arduousnesS of his call
ing.
The same applies in even
greater degree to the firemen,
who are real servants of the
community if ever there were
any.
The Times will be doing a
real service to the public if it
encourages the honest police
the great majority of them-to
fight off the crooks and para.
sites in their midst; and the
best way to do this is to make it
possible for them legitimately by
giving them and their families
an adequate living wage.

B|GANY CHARGE
DRIVES PAIR
To DEATH
BY ALFRED TYRNAUER


VIENNA, March Is UNSO.-
AS strange a story as any from
fiction's pages was being unfolded
by the police here today as they
probed the deaths of DR.. Ernest
Watzl, Austrian chemist and in
ventor, who made a fortune in
the United States, and woman
identified as Mrs. Mary Horvath
MacGranaham, of Cleveland,
Ohio.
The pair were found dead in
the fashionable Hotel Sacher here.
Police believe Watzl shot his COM
panion and then turned the gun
on himself.
The couple had registered at
the hotel, which i'll pre-war days
was the rendezvous of Austrian
ariStocracy, last Wednesday as
Mr.. and Mrs. Johann Flassak, of
Cleveland. Further investigation
showed the woman had maSQuer-
AIDED as Nine. Josefa Kropej, but
she was later identified, accord
ing to the police, as Mrs. Mac
Granahan.
Identified By Father
The body of DR.. Watzl was
p identified by his father, a we'll.
known Viennese matchmaker. He
had long believed his son to be
dead.
According to information here,
DR.. Watzl disappeared from
Cleveland about five months ago.
AT the same time Mrs. MacGran.
ahan, said to be a former model,
disappeared from her home in
that city. Police declared Mrs.
MacGranahan's husband previ-
ously had sued e DR.. Watzl cor
$4,000, charging alienation of af-
fectionS.
Three days ago, according to
the Viennese authorities, the
couple learned they were facing
prosecution on charges of bigamy.
Fearing arrest and scandal, it was
said, they entered into a suicide
agreement.
DR.. Watzl was about 40 years
OF age and his woman companion
10 years his junior. Information
IN the hands of the authorities
here declares he had achieved
considerable recognition for his
work in chemistry and that he
was reputed to be wealthy.
His disappearance five months
ago followed an automobile acci-
dent in Cleveland. His widow,
who is still believed to be in
Cleveland, informed his relatives
here of his disappearance and not
long ago he was officially de-
cIared dead by the courts.

proposed by the Public Utilities
Commission to control the taxicab
situation in Washington.
Before the advent of the cheap
taxicabs"-thoSes which take you
anywhere in the city proper for
35 cents-the situation in Wash
ington was bad enough. Now it
is gradually getting to the point
where it is a hardship to drive
your own car, especially in the
business section of the city.
There are too many taXicabs
rushing about the city without
passengers and too many taxicabs
are slowing traffic in the business
section, especially on F Street be-
tween Eleventh and Fourteenth
Streets Northwest. Pennsylvania
Avenue, too, is becoming much
more congeSted since the taxicabs
have been running wild.
Taxicab drivers, as rule, drive
too fast, and from my obServa-
tionS, the newer and cheaper
taXicabS are outdoing their higher
priced brethren in the matter of
speed.
The Public Utilities Commission
should take the taxicab situation
in hand, and If the higher-priced
taXicabS are charging too much
the rates should be reduced. If one
cab company can make money
carrying passengers for 35 cents,
there seems to be no reasonable
excuse why the others could not
do the same. Let us have city
control of taxicabs at a uniform
price. F. B. BLOOM.

Just chew pleasant Cascaret before

made from cascara-which doctors
say actually strengthens the bowet

beneficial. They clear up a stubborn,

WORKERS WAGES

One of those interesting cases
that keep life from becoming too
monotonous for endurance, came
up in Judge Geringer's court last
Saturday. The case had been pend.
ing for some time, but the time
Of hearing had been repeatedly
postponed.
From the justice court records
and the testimony brought out at
the trial 1t seems that on the ev-
ening of January "a, 1880, there
was a convivial little party at the
A.. M. Hanson home-just a bunch
sitting around playing cards. Ac-
cording to A. M. Hanson they
weren't drinking that night, In
a drop Of liquor in the house,
though he would not swear that
his guests had not been drinking.

DOGS ANTICS CAUSE
Widest EXCITEMENT

Last Saturday afternoon Ray
Kelberer's spaniel dog, which has
been sick for some time, developed
alarming symptoms. The Kelberer
home is across the G. N. right
of way, northwest CT the depot.
The dog rushed about the neigh
borhood in a crazy manner that
very naturally led many to fear
it was a case Of rabies.
1t rushed into Judge Gordon's
residence just west of the Kel-
berer home. Like a small cyclone
it went about the rooms and was
said to have snapped at Mrs.
Gordon's little daughters. AS 1t
leaped into a bedroom Mrs. Cor
don thoughtfully closed the door.
The captive made a mess Of the
bed covers but was subdued and
taken home.
An excited crowd gathered, arm
ed with an assortment of weapons.
Assurance was given that the dog
was not mad but in a spasm Of
fits.
In the evening the dog got
loose again and went tearing into
the Great Northern depot waiting
room. 1t jumped through the tick
ct window and bounded onto
desks and tables, overturning ev-
erything loose and throwing the
transportation business into con-
fusion for the time.
The dog, which was valued
at SIS, has been chloroformed by
its owner. Chief of Police Sham
ley says he does not believe the
dog was mad as it is not the sea-
son for hydrophobia- Too heavy
meat diet will sometimes cause
young dogs to have fits and act
like they were mad.
