HENDR|CK MAY
Be CANDIDATE
IN DISTRICT:

j. Hilman Hendrick, former
District Commissioner, has be-
come a strong possibility for ap-
pointment to one of the District
commisSionerships.
Influential men in Congress
and the city have presented his
name and qualifications to Presi,
dent Hoover in such a manner
as to impress the President, it is
now known.
Hendrick has not sought the
position and the movement in
his behalf is from those who feel
that he would make an excellent
commissioner. His forme1 ser
vice demonstrated his abilities,
and it is from those who know
of his record some years ago
that support for him is now com
ing.
Hendrick is one of the wealth
lest citizens of Washington, and
has long taken a deep interest in
the city'S affairs. He is a silent
partner of the banking and
brokerage house of w. B. Hihbs
& Co.
While Hendrick is nominally a
Democrat he is not partisan.
and some of his strongest endorse
ment is from leading Republicans
in Congress.

After exhausting a list of 15C
Ventremen, jury to try Walter

Plead Not Guilty
The defendant entered q plea
OF mot guilty" Wednesday morn
ing. He entered similar plea
when arraigned on January g.
which he was permitted to with
draw Monday by consent Of
court. When questioned by the
judge, Crabtree answered in a
clear voice.
His defense is expected to be
temporary insanity and several
alieniSts are known to have been
called.
The defense made another un-
BucceSsful effort late yesterday
afternoon to obtain postpone
ment of the trial until March,
but Judge A. G.. Hughes once
more denied the motion.
Denied Venue Change
The defense has also been un-
successful in their efforts for d
change of venue with the trial
to be held either at Martinsburg,
Berkeley county or in Preston
county because of sentiment
claimed to exist here. After ex.
amining a number of affidaVits
presented by the defense and in
rebuttal by the State, Judge
Hughes ruled that the scene of
the trial would remain unchanged
Crabtree is being returned each
} night to Keyser for safekeeping
He is an object of much curiosity
in the courtroom by spectators
who have been unable to obtain
a clear view of him for he has
been sitting with his back to the
crowd, unmoVed and silent, ap-
parently with only mild interest

81 HEART BALM
GIVEN HUSBAND

MARTINSBURG, w. Va, Jan.

Hampshire county, was awarded
damages Of 81 in an alienation
suit against David Hawkins, 54-
year-old farmer. in Hampshire
county circuit court at Romney.
SionS sued Hawkins for $4,000
for stealing the affections of his
23year-old wife. who is the
mother of three children. The
principals are all neighbors at
Cold Stream.
The jury was reported as
against awarding Sions even the
81 heart balm, but any other YER
dict would have thrown the costs
on SiOnS instead of Hawkins.
The rift in the Sions' domes-
tic happiness was reported healed,
the couple returning to each

WOMAN WARNS
Of LAW PERIL

The citizenship rights that the
women of many countries now
possess will be jeopardized if they
allow outWorn ideas to dominate
the Conference for Codification
of International Law to be held
at the Hague in March, DR..
Emma Void of Oregon, declared
last night in a coast to coast
radio speech from Station WRC,
Of the National BroadcaSting
Company. All governments of the
world have been invited to send
representatives to this conference
by the league of Nations, Pleni-
pOtentiarieS from the United
States will attend.
Proposals on the subject of
nationality, which is the first to
be considered, will be presented
to the codification conference by
several groups of legal experts. ="
DR.. Void said. These proposals
would write into the projected
world law the existing diScrim-
nations against wives and
mOCnerS. Women Will present
proposals providing that there
be no distinction based on sex
in the laws relating to ma
tionality.
The absurdity of the old idea
that woman must take the
nationality of her husband was
recently brought out in the case
of Ruth Bryan Owen, whose
right to sit in Congress is ques
toned in her native land on
account of her marriage to q
citizen Of another country. Many
women have two or more ma.
tionalities, others have none, and
an even greater number have tee
nationality OF, a country to which
they feel no allegiance.
Women of the United States
discovered the position they were
in during the war, when many
who had never been out of this
country found themselves treated
as enemies because their huS-
bands were alien enemies.

HOOVER'S PROPHECY
PROVES A DUD

Washington FTP - President
Hoover's confident announcement
it was not even so modest as a
prophecy-that the industrial de-
preston would be over by the mid
die of May has not shortened the
bread lines, nor has it enabled the
U. S. Employment Service to re-
port that March showed a notable
recovery in the job market. In
deed, this seems destined to be
one of the most unfortunate of the
endless procession of ill-founded
assertions with which Hoover has
made headlines since taking up his
present office.
"There was no great improve
ment in industrial activity in
March," says the summary of the
Industrial Employment Informa-
ton Bulletin, issued by the EN-
ployment Service. The iron and
steel industry has not reached nor.
NAL operations and unemployment
continued among these workers.
Curtailed schedules continued
in the boot and shoe industry, paI-
ticularly in New England, where a
large number of workers were en-
ployed on a part-time basis, with
quite a number idle. The
cotton textile industry remained
unchanged, with a large volume
of textile mill laborers working
part-time and many unemploy.

THE MERGERS

Life today is just one merger after another.
Whenever good fellows of the business world get
together it is always fair weather for consolida-
ton. Such fellowship makes for bigger and better
business Just the other day there was formed in
Wall Street the largest bank in the world. 1t
was not built without iron and concrete ready to
hand, without plenty of securities already in safe
vaults. There the physical transfer of pro-
perty, to be sure. But that was merely incidental
to the deal among the banks already existing
The new bank is the Chase National of the City
OF New York. 1t was omeet made out of tine
Equitable Trust Company and the Chase already
there. its resources put at $780, 0OO This
tidy sum is enough to rank it as the largest bank
in the world. But even that figure gives no idea
of the interlocking holdings and directorates
whereby this bank is the heart of great number,
II not the greatest number of the most important
industries of America, both in our own life and
IN world trade. The extent of the enormous con-
troll IN detail by this bank may be hard to grasp.
what may be done is to picture this vital and ire
mendous reservoir of money and credit pumped or
withheld from the arteries of commerce, either to
permit life or bring death. Up to now it is the
top of financial GENERALIZATION and material power
With such merger completed it may be expected
that there will be rapid increase of marriages in
royal industrial families, and the creation of trusts
and monopolies as offspring
Along with the mornings coffee, then, goes the
news that there has been formed the Anthracite
Institute This will represent every producer in
the anthracite industry and an investment of more
than 100000 So here is the mere matter of a
billion dollars in hard coal to do business as a
unit with the dear public. Just another billion
Among its activities given ga bureau of public
relations and bureau to deal with questions of
State and Federal legislation"
The least the public could do would be to orga-
nize and decide how to meet the anthracite trust
half way. 1t would be pity for the Anthracite
Institute 10 be ready to deal with the public State
and Federal legislators when there is nobody ready
TO deal with who is safeguarding the interests of
State and Nation.
But this continuous flow of mergers has parti-
cular and pressing Importance for those who labor
Tor their wherewithal: Beyond all the arguments
advanced by the advocates of trade unionism is
the rapid moving picture of capital organizing
The moral speaks out from the most silent
films. 1t is that every man and woman who is q
wage-earner should join with those already inside
the organized movement. And the unions should
open their doors. There should be full meno-
bershp within the union of those who sell their
Iaoor power which is bought by those who are 50
completely organized. The membership of the
labor unions should contain all the tens of mil
hons who earn their livelihood by work. II is
high time that labor went in for mergers on its
own account
