PISTOL-POSSESSION
BILL FACES DELAY
Proposed Changes Likely to Put
Off Action Until December
Session.

The dangerous weapon bill for the
District, which has passed the House
probably will have to await the Decem-
Der session of Congress for final action
it was indicated following hearing be-
fore the Senate District committee yes
terday afternoon, at which number of
changes were advocated. Chairman
Capper conducted the hearing.
Senator Robson, Republican, of Ken
lucky, questioned Supt. of Police Pratt
and Assistant Corporation Counsel
Cameron at length regarding the de-
tailed operation of the bill, indicating
he thought the measure needed reW-
sion.
officials of the National Rifle Asso-
citation and of the United States Re-
volver Association also suggested certain
amendments
for number of years the Police De-
partment has been anxious to get a new
dangerous weapon law, explaining that
now a man can walk into store and
purchase a gun by giving name and
address, which may be fictitious. The
pending bill would give the police a
closer check on sales of weapons and
also would place heavier penalties on
persons committing serious crimes II
they were armed at the time they COM
mitted the offense
Mr.. Cameron told the committee the
bill would not prevent citizen from
having a gun in his home or place OF
business. Referring to the possible ef-
fectivenesS of the measure on law
breakers, Assistant Corporation Counsel
Cameron said the local authorities could
not prevent a person from going to a
nearby State and buying weapon, but
that If the man brought 1t into the Dis
trict and committed any other offense,
such as HOUSEKEEPING, the possession
of the gun would place increased penal
ties on him.

ACTION
ON DRY BILL FAILS
Howell Defends Measure,
Which May Be Brought Up
Again This Term.

The prohibition enforcement bill for
Washington was debated briefly in the
Senate late yesterday by Senator Howell,
Republican, of Nebraska, its author, and
Senator Tydings, Democrat, Of Mary
land, but no action was taken. Further
efforts to have it considered before
Congress adjourns may be made.
Senator Howell defended the pro-
visions of the bill, declaring that the
District at one time had local enforce
ment statute, which seems to have been
repealed by implication.
Senator Tydings said he disliked to
object to the taking up of the bill, be-
cause four or five of his objections to the
original bill had been removed in COM
mittee. The Maryland Senator asked,
however, that he felt the bill is not
needed in addition to the VolStead act.
He also opposed it, he said, because sit
makes it crime for any person in
Washington to take drink
Senator Tydings declared that fol-
lowing the Army and Navy foot ball
game in Baltimore about five years ago
about 1000 glass TASKS were gathered
up in the stadium. He said if that
many TASKS were found after such a
gathering he did not believe the passage
of law would stop it in Washington.
Senator Howell replied that if such
an occurrence as Senator Tydings de-
scribed had taken place in Montgomery
County or Prince Georges County ar
rests could have been made for pos
session or drinking in public, but that
Baltimore County had no prohibitory
law.
Senator Tydings declared he did not
consider it a crime to take a drink.
but, he said, if a man abuses the
practice, that is a different matter. He
added that "a good mint julep on a
hot day in the shade of tree is one
of the finest gifts of God"

SCHOOL DEDICATED
BY S. f. KRAMER
William B. Powell StruCtureI
Presented to Board
by Ladue.

The William B. Powell School at
Thirteenth and Upshur streets, WASH
ington's newest elementary school, was
formally dedicated last night when an
audience of school officials, teachers
and parents witnessed its official pres
entation by the District to the Board of
Education.
Col. William B. Ladue, Engineer Com
missioner, presented the handsome
structure to Mrs. Henry Grattan Doyle,
member of the Board of Education, who
accepted it for that official, body. In
making the presentation, Col. Ladue
characterized the public school as zone
of the strongest bulwarkS of American
civilization" in times when subVersiVe
doctrines are being taught.
Mrs. Doyle subsequently turned the
building over to Mrs. L. r. Duganne,
principal of the new institution.
Named for William B. Powell, super
intendent of Washington schools from
1885 to 1900, the new school was dedi-
Gated to the ideals of progress for which
Mr.. Powell stood by Stephen E. Kramer,
first assistant superintendent, who last
night traced the career of the former
Washington educator. In his address
Mr.. Kramer said that the manual train
ing system in local schools was a monu-
ment to PoWel'S ideals. Three high
schools which today hold prominent
places in the educational life of the
Capital were brought into being dur
ing Mr.. PoWell'S regime and largely
through his efforts and sympathy,
Kramer declared. They are the East
ern, Western and the Business High
Schools. Mr.. Powell died at his New
York State home in 1904.
A framed picture of the former super
intendent for whom the school was
named was unveiled by sixth-grade
Augusta Dayton. The portrait will
hang permanently in the school.
Mrs. Doyle took occasion to commend
Albert L. Harris, municipal architect,
for the beauty he had incorporated in
the design of the Powell School and
other schools which were conceived on
his boards.
One of the most eloquent tributes
paid Mr.. Powell in last nights exercises
was contained in the presence on the
stage through the program of Lewis
Monroe, colored clerk at the Franklin
Administration Building, who was Mr..
Powell's personal coachman. Monroe is
widely known in the school system as
an ardent admirer of Mr.. Powell, about
whom he frequently speaks, and as a
well versed historian on Washington'S
school system.
Music was provided last night by the
AUGMENTATION School Orchestra under
the direction of Ludwig E. Mandy,
director of orcheStras in the schools.

ACTION is URGED
ON VAGRANCY BILL
Commissioners Want Power Given
Police Soon to Deal
With Crime.

Early action by Congress on the
pending bill to give the Police Depart
ment more effective control over va
grants was urged by the District Com
missioners yesterday in a report to
Senator Capper, chairman of the Senate
District committee.
The bill was drafted by the Police De-
partment. 1t would empower policemen
to arrest suspect criminals against whom
they had no evidence, and punish them
as Migrants.
1.-THE legislation proposed by this BILL"
the Commissioners said, ''iS believed to
be necessary in order properly to safe
guard the public from persons described
in the bill as Migrants. The definitions
of vagrancy as contained in the bill
were prepared by the corporation coun-
sell"
Migrants, under the bill, are defined
as persons so deemed under common
laval persons known to be burg
lars, pickpockets, thieves or confidence
operators" unable to give the police
satisfactory account of themselves, per-
sons found with things which might be
employed in commission of crime, and,
all persons whom the police suspect, but
against whom they have no evidence,

SEEK TO PROHIBIT
VWSECT|0N HERE
League Representatives Hold
Experiments on Dogs Are
No Longer Necessary.

Contending that experiments on dogs
in scientific laboratories are no longer
necessary, advocates of bill to prohibit
vivisection in Washington testified be-
fore the Senate District committee yes
terday afternoon, bringing with them
witnesses from number of cities to
support their position.
The committee will resume consider
alton of the question probably Tuesday,
with several more to be heard in sup
port of the bill, after which the other
side will be given an opportunity.
The advocates of the bill were headed
by Miss Mabel E. Orgelman, secretary
of the Vivisection Investigation League,
Inc. She presented the following wit
nesses in support of the bill: r. wv.
Pond of the animal protective bureau
OF Baltimore, DR.. William H, Hay of
Buffalo, N. Y, and Miss Mae Helm, an
attorney of this city.
Information Already Known.
Advocates of the bill said they were
urging this legislation for the District
of Columbia because of. the presence
here of the various Laboratories of the
Federal Government. Mr.. Pond told
the committee that further experiments
on animals in connection with the study
OF pellagra and sun stroke are unneceS-
Sary, because, he commended, the infor-
nation sought by such experiments is
already known.
Discussing the effect OF an anti-viyi-
section law on the regulation of the food
and drug act, Mr.. Pond told the COM
mittee he found that only two drugs are
standardized by tests on dogs.
Il
long enough as the basis for laboratory
experimentation, that there is no fur
Their information of value to be gained
from the canine and that the dog should
be excused from further service in the
laboratory.
Miss Helm, who presented legal argu-
ments against VivlSection, contended
that under law enacted in 1885 only
a few societies and institutions have
authority to experiment on dogs. Mr..
Pond told the committee he understood
the District Health Department has
stopped turning dogs over to the Bu-
reau OF Animal Industry.
Plant Tests With CANNES.
Included in the testimony presented
by Mr.. Pond was a copy of a letter
purporting to show that A. G.. Rice,
assistant to the chief of the Bureau of
SIleIIllSIFy ana SOILS department. OF
Agriculture, had taken up with Elton
L. Marshall, solicitor in the depart
ment, the possibility of arranging to
have a local veterinarian conduct GER
tain experiments on cats and dogs for
the department. The testimony did
not bring out whether the agreement
was made.
Chairman Capper, who conducted the
hearing, said he thought every one
would agree on the humanitarian mo-
tives of the societies supporting the bill,
but said he was wondering how much
had been accomplished Mr. Pond said
humane societies throughout the coun-
try had accomplished great deal over
a period of years in bringing about bet
ter handling of dogs in large cities.
Senator Robson, Republican, of Ken
lucky also took part in questioning wit
nesses at the hearing.
