PRIMARY FIGHT,
NEARING END

ROCKVILLE, Md, Sept. S.
With only another day of cam
paigning left before the election
Monday, the Democratic primary
fight in Montgomery county has
developed into the hottest ponti.
cal battle of recent years.
Even in the days when Blair
Lee was battling the Peter organ
iZation for county supremacy no
more bitter campaign was fought.
Speakers nightly are discussing
the conduct of the county gov
ernment for the last four years,
and charges and insinuationS
passed about by word of mouth
have enlivened the fight.
On the one side are lined the
adherentS of e. Brooke Lee.
speaker of the last house of dele,
gates and as State leader in
his party second only to Governor
Ritchie and Frank A. Furst. Lees
faction has controlled Montgom-
cry county government since 1920,
with the exception of an office
here and there.
Opposing this dominant fac
ton are the "anti-organization
Democrats" as the Lee people
call them, or "the Progressive
Democratic party" as they style
themselves. In the front ranks
of this faction are such men as
Edward Peter, Vincent Peter and
Albert Bouic. who inherited from
their ancestors a disposition to
oppose the Lee family politically,
and newer names in Maryland
politics such as E. Barrett Pretty
man, w. l.. Aud and Robert l..
TolSon.
Both sides have offered to the
voters lengthy platforms. that Of
the Lee group eulogizing all that
has been done in the county in
the last four years and prolniS-
ing to strive to continue the ''un-
precedented countrywide prog
ress." as well as not to increase
taxes. =
The platform of the "anti" or
progressive" group assails the
county government in general.

While the investigation was

amined approximately $4,000 fin

the tell-tale print on the eye

Since then, Sandberg has made

has it on his desk in the finger

proximately 20 prisoners go
through the "mugging" routine
of the Identification bureau there.
Each day. Sandberg in the
hope of discovering the mur-
derer, compares the new prints
with the enlargement of the
print on the eyeglass.
Sandberg has been staging
these comparisons each day for
nearly five years. He is conf.
dent that one day a print will
come before him, which will
match the one on the eyeglasses.

Actual Award Of Disability
Allowances Only 424 Up to
Aug. I, New Report Shows

More than 74,O0O World War
veterans have made application
for disability allowances under
the pension legislation, enacted
by the last. Congress, q compila-
tion Of reports from regional Of
fices Of the veterans administra.
tion disclosed today.
The manner IN which applica-
tions now are pouring in has
convinced veterans administra-
tion officials they viii receive
several hundred thousand appli.
cations before the first Of the
year.
Actual award Of disability al
loWanceS, or pensions, is proceed
ing slowly. Only 424 had actually
been allowed up to August /. most
of these to men in hospitals, Suf-
fering from knowns disabilities.
The influx Of applications has
been followed keenlv by veterans
administration officials, who had
estimated to Congress that 1885,
600 veterans would be benefited
by the act during its first year of
operation. It is expected that
applications will Tar exceed the
number Of claims actually al
lowed.
Under the policy Of Gen. Frank
T. Hines, director Of the veterans
organization, final allowance Of
pensions will cover a period Of
several months. No increase has
been made in the veterans ad-
ministration force to provide for
speedy examinations Of appli-
cantS.
Bureau officials claim it is vir-
tually impossible to speed its ma
chinery overnight. A quickly ex-
panded force, they say, would re-
suit in the seasoned employees
spending their time training new
ones, and thus the pension ma
chinery probably would be delayed.

BOY DRY SPIES
ARE BARRED

Elimination from text books
used in a sleuthing course for
prohibition agents of a suggestion
that boys be used in tracking
down suspected dry law violators
was ordered yesterday by Prohi-
bitioh Director Amos w. w.
Woodcock.
Woodcock declared that boys
had never, been used in such con-
nection and there was no inten.
ton of employing them. The de-
leted suggestion pointed. out that
boys, playing about the establish
ment of a suspect, would attract
less attention than a man loiter-
ing in the neighborhood.
Much attention in the course
is devoted to methods of obtain
ing confessions. These methods
include direct appeal" sympathy
with the accused. analysis and
accusing a person of a graver
crime in order to obtain an ad-
mission of guilt to the lesser of
fense. The course warns against
third degree" methods. stating:
'YOu should avoid any trick
cry or artifice. Brutal, antag
Onistic tactics on the part of an
officer never secured a cOnfeS-
sion which would stand up in
court, whereas one secured by
proper and legal methods can
not be attacked"

shortest plea Of its kind on rec
ord, Edward Z. Brown, Govern

of Miss Norma L. Chethan1, a
nurse Of the 500 block of Third st.
N W., who recentiJ sued him for
$4,000 heart balm, alleging that
he had broken promise to marry
her on August 2.
Attorneys Fred B. Rhodes and
Cooper B. Rhodes represent
Brown, who resides in the HOO
block. Of Twelfth st. N. w.
In her declaration Miss
Chetham said Brown obtained a
license to marry her on the day
before the nuptial date and on
the date Of the wedding did not
show up, but sent her a note say
ing he had changed his mond.
Brown. in his plea, says:
"That ne met the plaintiff ON
Monday, July 2S, 1880; that, on
Thursday, July 81, he accepted
her proposal Of marriage, on
her assurance that she had
never been married before;
that, on Friday, August l, he
consented to her request that
q marriage license be secured
and that the marriage take
place on Saturday, August 2;

ing her said assurances that she

introduced to him as her son, q
boy Of the age Of Is years;
that, thereupon, on the said
Saturday, the said contract was
terminated"
In obtaining the license, Brown
