Jury Trial Rights Argued
In u. S. Supreme Court

The. United States Supreme
Court is soon to decide whether
Congress can take away the
right of citizens Of the District
of Columbia to a trial by jury.
regardless Of the seriousness Of
the offense.
Yesterday the court heard
arguments of private counsel and
r. E. Lynch, of the corporation
counsel's office on the appeal
of William H. Colts, negro, from
a District of Columbia police
court sentence Of thirty days in
Jail, or q 500 fine for reckless
driving.
Convicted Year Ago
Colts was convicted nearly a
year ago by Police Court Judge
John P. Mcmahon after the
latter had refused q jury trial
asked by his counsel, Attorneys
william B. O'Connell, Harry T.
Whelan and Louis L. WhiteStone
and an appeal was carried to the
District Court of Appeals which
granted a writ of error and later
reversed the police court judge,
declaring that jury trials are an
inviolable right.
The appeal was then carried to
the United States Supreme Court
by the Corporation Counsel.

WOMAN HELD
PROBABLE
CHOICE
Jersey Representative VIII
Get Post If Her Party
Gains Control at Polls

Assuming that the Democrats
gain control Of the next. House,
which they now confidently pre-
dict they will do. Mrs. Mary r.
Norton, Of New Jersey, is on the
slate for the chairmanship of the
House District, Of Columbia Com
mittee.
She would thus become the first
woman chairman Of any com.
mittee of Congress. Incidentally,
she was the first woman ever
elected to Congress by the Demo
cratic party. In 1924, Mrs. Norton
was a delegate to the Democrats
national convention and in the
same year was elected to the
House. Her home is in Jersey
City, where she has long been
active in municipal affairs.
Choice Expected
Reliable reports at the Capitol
today were that Mrs. Norton Is in
line for the District chairmanShip.
The situation substantially is this:
Representative Christopher D.
Sullivan, Of New York. who comes
from a So-called Tammany district
is the ranking Democrat on the
House District Committee. He is
also the lead-off minority member
on the Insular Affairs Committee.
But Mr.. Sullivan has been an
irregular attendant upon meetings
Of the District board and is not
regarded as q student of the legiS-
lative problems Of the Capital.
Second in Rank
Mrs. Norton, who is second on
the minority membership of tina
District Committee, has evinced
steady interest in the committee
work, even going on inspection
trips about the District to IA
miliarize herself with local condi-
tionS.
Political gossip today was that
Representative Sullivan Is likely
to prefer. under the seniority rlle,
the chairmanship Of 1nsulaR
Affairs. Such choice automatic
ally would move Mrs. Norton up
to ranking minority place on the
District Committee.

SHOP EARLY

With the appointment by Pres
ident Mark Landsburgh Of Ralph
Goldsmith as chairman of the
shop Early-Mail Early" com
mittee of the Merchants and
Manufacturers Association, the
1880 campaign to induce shoppers
to attend to their Christmas
needs early is under way.
Details Of the plans will be
arranged at the first meeting of
the committee next Tuesday. The
program will have the coopera-
lion of the City Postoffice. &C.
cording to Postmaster William NJ.
Mooney.
The "Shop Early-Mail Early
movement originated in the Dis
trict several years ago and proved
so successful that it has been
adopted in all parts Of the
country.
The peak of mail deliveries
which formerly reached its height
on Christmas has been moved
forward at least a week in Wash
ington and postoffice clerks and
carriers are now able to enjoy
the holiday. The plan has the
approval of Postmaster General
Brown, who last year issued
orders to postmasters throughout
the United States to cooperate
with local organizations in
furthering the plan.

fore John P. Mcmahon as a fu-
gitive from justice from Ohio. He

trict Attorney Michael j. Keogh

tigation which is being made con-
corning the man in the DiStricS.
Concerning this investigation.
Mr.. Keogh was unable to give
Judge Mcmahon the details in
open court. For this reason the
Judge delayed fixing the bond
until later.
The amount Of the checks in
volved is reported to be approx
mately $500. Mcbride was ar
rested in Washington October II
on the strength Of information
furnished by his brother. Pending

that under common law convicts
were drawn and quartered" for
certain offenses now deemed

Holds Inquest to Fix Blame
Police today stated that the
apprehension of William J. Car
nell, wanted in connection with
the fatal shooting Of Louis Bush,
owner Of the Gray Line Tours.
here October 6, Is almost GER
tain within the next few days,
as it is believed he has been 10
Gated.
Just what the prediction is
based on members Of the Detec-
tive Bureau working on the case
declined to state, but all were
perceptibly more cheerful today
over the search for Carnell than
at any time since Carnen walked
from a bus in Pittsburgh and
escaped q Gordon Of police set
to capture him.
Frank Mahoney, former en-
ploye Of the bus line owner, who
was arrested in Pittsburgh, has
made a complete and frank con-
fession in the part he played in
the holdup which Immediately
preceded the shooting Of Mr.,
Bush, his benefactor, police de-
clare.
Bush Aided Suspect
The former hack operator told
OAA1inA that kA4 moe thn lOsiNI0as Nf
the car that took Carnell to the
scene Of the shooting and that
it was his revolver that CarnelI
used in staging the holdup. He
also stated that after the shoot
ing the weapon was disposed of
in the Potomac River, police re-
ported.
Mahoney at several points in
his story was on the verge of
tears as he told Of being given
assistance by Mr.. BuSh-when
all other sources Of employment
were closed to him. Mr.. Bush,
he said, came to his aid when
he was released from Occoquan
and also personally interceeded
for him at the Traffic Bureau
for. drivers permit.
Mahoney expressed the hope
that his frank confession might
mitigate the charge placed
against him, police said.
Blood Spots Tested
While Mahoney was going into
minute details In regard to the
hold-up and shooting of Mr.. Bush.
experts were making tests Of
spots, now known to have been
made by blood, on an overcoat
that Carnell is said to have worn
the night that Mr.. Bush was shot.
The man later sold it for $4 to a
boy who later reSold it to a
secondhand dealer in southwest
Washington.
If the spots are found to have
been made by human blood it
will be impossible to determine
whether the blood is that of Mr..
Bush or Of his assailant, health
department experts said. Even
with specimens Of blood from
both men,. 1t would be almost
impossible to identify the blood
on the clothing. they said.
An inquest Is being held at the
District Morgue today to fix re-
sponsibility for the death IT the
bus line owner.
Mother Still Held
William H. Mckay, 25.year-old
stonemason, who admitted that
he had Mahoney's revolver in his
possession after the shooting, is
still being held by police and will
appear at the inquest.
Mrs. Sarah Sullivan, mother of
Carnell. who is said to have
aided her son in dispoSing of
blood-Soaked garments, will also
be called as a witness. She, too,
is held on a charge Of ;nvestiga-
tion.

TELLS TRUTH ABOUT - ALASKA: CHRISTIAN
 SCIENCE MONITOR

Real Alaska Much Unlike Reel Alaska is the heading of an interesting article in the Chris tian Science Monitor of Bos- ton for October 2, written by Lucy Hon Cuddy of Valdez, in which the writer tells of the two classes of people who are interested in this vast Terri tory.
 One class, she says, wants the glamorous stories of ice and snow, of Eskimoes and igloos, of ice worms, of gold stamped CTS and crashing glaciers. This class won't believe anything else. The others desire real informa- tion about the country, the truth about it's farms and flow CTS, it's warm summer days, its wonderful vegetable gardens where things spring up over night. The writer was much amused on her arrival in the States, one trip out, when a young lady friend, a graduate of a university, asker her if she had come down on the Alaska Railroad
 In spite of careful scenic pre- paration by supposed experts, motion pictures often produce comic travesties on the real thing, as for instance a scene showing all the women of town dropping down to welcome an ar irving boat and all wearing sunbonnets. The story carries a fine picture of Valdez harbor.
