Bohemian Easter Custom

A curious old custom, that of EAST
er riding" prevails in various parts
Of Bohemia. On each Easter day the
riders assemble dressed in black and
carrying crosses, flags and other en-
blems. They proceed from Schon-
wald on a three hours ride to Kuhn,
where they attend services. The
priest, after a sermon, wherein he re-
fers to the horse as symbol Of pow
er, bestows the benediction on the
animals and their riders. The riders
then visit the neighboring castles,
where they receive hospitality, sub
seQuently making their way home

crowd.-Grit.

ASSA|LS
SMITHS PENSION
Writ Is Asked to Stop Bureau
CounseI's Disability
Compensation.

John E. Smalling. 1882 Thirty-third
street, a World War veteran, today
asked the District Supreme Court for
an injunction against Andrew W. Mel
Ion, Secretary of the Treasury; I. B.
Schommer, disbursing officer of the Vet
Grams Bureau. and William Wolff Smith,
chief counsel of the bureau, to prevent
the alleged Illegal distribution of Gov
eminent funds by paying disability al
lowances Of $2,25o annually to Smith
in addition to his annual salary of
$4,000 as counsel.
Smalling says he Is suing as a tax
payer Of the United States and in the
interest Of any other taxpayer who
wishes to join in It, He appears as his
own counsel and has noticed his motion
for hearing April II.
The petitioner declares that he is in
formed and believes Smith served in the
military forces of the United States in
the World War approximately 60 days,
all OF which service was performed in
the City of Washington in q non-com-
Blatant unit; that he did not serve in
the field either within the United States
or abroad; that he did not contract any
disease nor suffer any injury while so
serving and could not have incurred
disabilities that would entitle him to
compensation OF $187.50 per month.
The administrator Of veterans affairs,
he tells the court, has held personally
through his agents, employees and subor-
dinates in other cases "far more meri-
torious" that if the veteran is able to
follow gainfu occupation, even in
termittently, he is not entitled to dis
ability compe4- Sation pay.
The petitioner asserts that the pay
ment of this disability compensation by
Secretary Mellon and his agents and
subordinates to Smith is illegal and
without authority of law and is a vio-
lation of the rights Of other citizens
and taxpayers of the United States.
Unless restrained and forbidden by
an Injunction, Smalling declares, I'M
Unsuitable and unlawful disability COM
pensation will continue to be paid to
Smith to the inconvenience of the Gov
eminent and the disadvantage of the
citizens and taxpayers Of the United
States.

OPINION DIVIDED
ON RASKOB PLAN
Ex-Gov. Byrd Reiterates Be-

Establish Policies.

Division of opinion over the proposal
Of Chairman John j. Raskob of the
Democratic National Committee to
write into the party platform next year
his "home rule plan" for liquor traffic
appeared in reports received from mem
bars of the National Committee. Mr..
RaSkob has sent each member of the
committee a letter asking his or her
views on the proposal.
Former Gov. Harry Flood Byrd of
Virginia, vice chairman of the Demo-
cratic National Committee, reiterated
his belief that the National Committee
should not establish party politicls.
That perogatiye, he said, should be left
to the national conventions.
Anticipated Objections.
Chairman Raskob had attempted to
anticipate this objection in his letter to
committeeman He said the last ma
tional convention instructed the group
he heads to make Recommendation Of
policies or procedure for the considera-
ton of the convention" His proposals.
and the poll, he said, were in line with
that direction.
But Mrs Charles j. Sharp, national
committeewoman for Alabama. assert
u
that Mr.. Raskob has persisted in urg-
ing commitment by an unauthorized
committee"
Senator Robinson of Arkansas, Sem
ate leader, who vigorously protested the
home rule proposal when it was adj
vanced at the Democratic National
Committee meeting here in March, de-
clined to- comment. His friends here
said they had no reason TO believe he
had changed his former opinion.
From Vincent M. Miles, Arkansas
committeeman, came the expression
that the 1882 convention should

States, II it is Democratic. to a ref
erendum on prohibition at the congress

RIDICULEs WET DRIVE.
Mrs. Rushmore Patterson AsSails Women
Who Defy Prohibition.

Mrs. Rushmore Patterson AssaiIs Women
Who Defy Prohibition.
Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, April 7.-Characteriz-
ing appeals for crusade in behalf of
youth as really a crusade for the holy
ale" Mrs. Rushmore Patterson of Wash
ington and New York, upheld the eight
eenth amendment today before a wom-
ans good citizenship luncheon here.
Mrs. Patterson divided women who
defy the prohibition law into four
groups.
Have Thirst for Liquor.
1.-THE first" she said, is composed of
these who have already acquired a
thirst for liquor. They now find it more
expensive than before prohibition, not
SO coed and more difficult to obtain.
Most of these women are not drunkards,
but are what may be termed moderate
drinkers. This group Is furiously ir-
rltated against prohibition, and, be-
ieve, is to be pitied.
1.-THE second consists of those who
heretofore have had what they wanted
when they wanted it, and have not
found other laws so irksome because
those did not interfere with them. This
is the class that cries, Where is our
liberty?"
1.-The third group consists of the fe-
male sheep, those women who want to
be smart and since the rich people
who serve liquor make such noise about
1t, they think it must be the thing to
do. They serve cocktails as they wear
diamonds-loudly and at any old time.
The sheep are really very amusing.
Most Important Group.
"RlIt poU comes the fourth and Y,,ost
important group, the women who truly
want to be good citizens, who want
their children to grow into good citi-
zens but who have been misled into be-
lieving prohibition has caused all the
difficulties in America. Since time I'M
memorial the Presidents of the United
States have been held responsible for
our troubles. Today efforts are being
made to make prohibition even more OF
scapegoat than the President.
For instance, we are told by our wet
friends that youth is going to the dogs,
which sentiment, by the way, has been
expressed by elders since the world be-
gan. But this time prohibition is given
as the reason. Girls certainly behave
more as their brothers do than they did
in the past, but If this freedom of &C
ton is caused by prohibition, what of
the English, French and German girls,
who all show the same tendency?
Haven't our wet friends failed to think
Of this?"
Mrs. Patterson recommended that
supporters of the eighteenth amend
ment concentrate on 1.-The good citizen
who has been misled by the wet press.
SHOW her." she added, that, no
matter what change has been suggested,
1t leads right back to the saloon"

so his foreman would lose his job. A
passenger train beat the freight to the
switch. Among the dead were the
