By United Press
CHICAGO, March g. Mrs.
Maude Bouldin, who is social
secretary Of one of Chicago's
de luxiest hotels and who thus
presumably should know what
she's talking about, announced
today that the chinless man
has a much better chance Of
being a social lion that his
square jawed neighbor. Said
Mrs. Bouldin:
1.-THE man with the receding
chin is quick on the converse
tional trigger. He has charm,
he listens we'll and his repartee
can not be excelled. Between
popularity and a short chin
there exists some strange COM
pensating bond"
And furthermore, continued
Mrs. Bouldin, Cleopatra, Wash
ington and Napoleon weren't
noted for their craggy chins,
which proves her point con-
clusively, said Mrs. Bouldin,
who, incidentally has a we'll

WET DISPUTE
IS BIG ISSUE
OF DEMOCRATS
Growing Volume of Protests
Against Committee Action
on Dry Question.
BY RAYMOND CLAPPER
United Press stan CORRESPONDENT

WASHINGTON. March 3.-Rap-
idly growing volume Of protest
against the Democratic national
committee attempting to commit
the party on the prohibition issue
has increased the complications TO
be met Thursday at the committee
meeting CALLED by John J. Raskob,
national chairman.
Southern Democrats who have
opposed what they feared Is a plan
~ Raskob TO obtain an anti-prohi-
oition commitment claimed today to
have reason TO believe Governor
franklin D. Roosevelt Of New York,
q leading potential presidential can
didste, is in sympathy with their
opposition, although, unlike them.
ne favors repeal of the eighteenth
amendment.
May BE Boom for Young
The New York Democratic state
committee formally has declared op-
position to any party commitment
on the national policy at this time.
This position is understood by some
southern Democrats to reflect the
view Of Governor Roosevelt.
The situation recalled current but
unconhrmed reports that the Ras-
kob reports that the Raskob group
tavors Owen D. Young as New York's
President candidate next year. 1t
was thought by some to foreshadow
an effort looking to a linking of
fortunes between Roosevelt and
southern leaders.
This newest Democratic develop
ment came only few hours after
bipartisan independent group in
the senate had revealed plans for
a meeting here March II to II to
discuss legislative program for the
next congress.
Aim Blow at Coalition
The group served notice on both
major parties that fundamental
economic issues would be stressed
in the 1882 presidential campaign,
but at the same time disclaimed
any intention to form new party.
Senator George w. Norris Rep.,
Neb) has dispatched invitations to
liberals Of all parties to attend the
conferences. Problems listed In the
invitation include unemployment,
public utilities, agriculture, tariff
and return to representative gov
eminent.

Concerning the possibility that
the committee might make a
declaration on the prohibition
question, he said that the power
to determine party policies belongs
to the national convention.
He added that he had no idea
whether prohibition would be the
dominant controversy in 1882.

ARRESTED.
IN HOLD-UP

Lack of decision late last night
may cost Robert Mathews, 26, Of
40 Todd Pl. N. E., his liberty for
some time to come. He is jailed
following his capture by taxicab
driver whom he was holding up
at the point of a pistol.
The arrested man, a former
jockey, according to officials, en-
gagged the cab of Earl Boccabelo,
of 333 Bryant Pl. N. W., and or
dered him to go to Benning, D. c.
Enroute, the jockey and his
companion put pistol in the ribs
of the driver and ordered him to
cruise around while they made
up their minds what they should
do with him.
Something attracted the atten-
ton of the man holding the gun
and Boccabelo, seizing his oppor-
tunity, knocked the gun out of his
hand.
The other man fled. A radio
police cruising car, ordered to the
scene, captured Seymour w.
Grady, 17-year- old Baltimore art
student, who police say, has ad-
mitted being Mathews pal. Both
men are charged with investiga-

TRAVEL GAINS

Addition of every-other-hour
plane service from Washington to
Boston has about doubled the air
travel between the two cities, the
Ludington Lines report.
The new service was started
March 8, but due to the heavy
storm which ragged over the New
England coast, planes could be
sent to Boston on only a few
days until this weekend. Normal
service is now restored.
The Ludington Lines have ar
rangements with the Colonial Air
Transport, whereby Ludington
planes fly passengers to Newark
Airport, transferring them then
to Colonial planes to continue d.
rectly on to Boston.
The planes make the return
trip on the even hours. They
leave Washington at 9, II, 8,
and 5 o'clock every other day.

"WelI, you see, the Secretary

hooked rugs as gifts. -"
whats that got to do with
you gOin to school, at your
age?"
ooh, it's never to late to
learn, you know. So we are
taking a correspondence course
in hooking rugS-and we are
going to the pOStOffice."
The conductor wrung his hands
in impotent rage and the motor
man, thinking it was the bel
ringing, slammed on the brakes
"Of course, this being our
first year, we haven't learned to
hook rugs yet"
Encouraged to Go On
This reinsurance seemed ir
order, so we continued:
"NO, all we've learned to hook
80 far is Pullman towels and
hotel bath mats. You don't
get into actual rug-hOOking un-
til the second year. There's
lot of difference between hook
ing rugs and hooking"
But we couldn't finish. Some
body moved the street car right
out from under US. Sitting there
in the street, we heard the con
ductor shout, as the car movec
off:
"Try that when you've taken
a course in hooking rides!"

HARTUNG FREED.
ON BOND IN SUIT.

William K. Hartung, well-known
real estate man, was held last
night in a hotel in custody Of
Deputy Marshal Harold T. Scott
on a writ obtained by counsel for
his wife to restrain him from
leaving the District pending dis
position Of her suit for limited
divorce, which she filed yesterday
simultaneously with the applica-
ton for the writ.
Later Freed on Bond
Later Mr.. Hartung furnished
$4,000 bond set by Justice Jesse G.
Adkins under the writ and was
released.
The wife, Mrs. Marion X. Har-
tung, who is represented by AttOr-
ney Raymond Neudecker, asserted

On one occasion he threw lamp
and eleven glasses at her, she said
and another time she had to
call police for protection.
Threat to Leave Charged
Mr.. Hartung is said to have
been keeping company with an
other woman and this is alleged
as an act of cruelty in the suit.
The writ of ne exeat was re-
quested on Mrs. Hartung's allega-
ton that her husband called on
her at the Brigton Hotel last
December %, saying he was going
to leave the District.
They have one child and Mrs.
Hartung asks custody and ade-
quate maintenance.
