 Against You''

BULLETIN-WASHINGTON, July 20.-Three members of the House Army were arrested late this afternoon as the af- termath of large group of veterans approaching the White House. The arrests were made after a mild scuffle with the police. Those arrested were charged with parading without a permit. A disorderly conduct bond of SIPS was placed against each.
 Most of the veterans dis persed in a good natured spirit.
 In the White House, Presi- dent Hoover kept at his work unaware of the incident.

 A secretary took the request.

UP TO CONGRESS

The constitution provides just two methods of originating amend ments. One is by the action of two-thirds of both Houses of Con- gress. The other is by national convention, assembled for that special purpose on the petition ot the Legislatures of two-thirds of the states.
 Tn actual practice, the second method never has been tried, and no one expects it to be tried in this instance. If the dry amend ment is to be amended or re. pealed, it will be up to Congress to take the first step.
 Already the organized pressure from both sides is focusing or Congressional candidates. The ef- fort to put every candidate or record was reflected in Senator Bingham's demand for an immed. fate vote on his beer bill, and by the clamor of the wet bloc in tho House for a similar showdown. This is only the beginning. Be. fore 1t is over, the friends an6 foes of national prohibition ma. be counted on to ask the Con gressional candidates over an; over: Do you favor repeal? Dt you favor beer and wine?"

found to be infected with scabies. They
were ordered segregated, but DR.. Fowler
said there was no telling how many
more men were in the same condition.
The Health Department had six men
on the grounds this morning, but sup

DR.. Fowler explained the District has
no money to supply the necessary med

bureau would look into the matter.
1T is a most deplorable situation"
DR.. Fowler said. There is always the
danger of an outbreak when men are
living under such conditions, and I
would not be surprised to see anything
happen down there"

AS the Police Department relinquished
supervision today over the activities OF
the bonus expeditionary forces Brig.
Gen. Pelham D. Glassford expressed the
opinion that his force had done good
job and smiled in satisfaction over the
orderly demonstration of the veterans
last night on Pennsylvania avenue.
And by telegraph, telephone and mail
concentrations on the success OF the
police in handling vast army OF men
without any disorder flowed into the
office of Gen. Glassford and made him
feel doubly proud. He was responsible
for the arrangements and if anything
happened he knew he would be singled
out to shoulder the blame.
Neither Police Commissioner Herbert
B. Crosby nor Gen. Glassford would
make any further comment on the
reports that the police activities in
helping to feed and house the bonus
marchers had incurred displeasure in
congressional circles.
Commissioner Crosby, however, re-
peated his denial that he had warned
Gen Glassford that he might be per
emptorily dismissed because of the
methods he chose to pursue in feed
ing and handling the veterans who had
come to Washington.
the story of what happened Saturday
at meeting of the Board of Commits
sioners were circulated at the District
Building. It was at this meeting Gen.
Glassford is reported to have received
warning that he might subject him
self to such criticism that dismissal
would follow.
The Commissioners last Saturday
gave out to the press statement of
the plans said to have been recon-
mended by Gen. Glassford for ceasing
police supervision over the veterans
Thursday morning and an offer on the
part of the District to carry them out
of Washington in trucks If they wanted
to leave.
Question of Responsibility.
Gen. Glassford is said to have taken
the position that the plans as an
nounced by the Commissioners were
not recommended by him and that I'M
less the Commissioners publicly took
responsibility away from him for ham
ding the bonus marchers he proposed
to carry out his own plans. since the
public held him responsible for orderly
handling of the veterans.
1t was then that Gen. Glassford Is
reported to have been warned. A day
preceding the board meeting of the
Commissioners, several members of
Congress had protested to the Com
missioners that Gen. Glassford's activi-
ties in seeking food and sh4ter for the

The dry" winter onions differ considerably in their food properties although they are rich in mineral constituents and are a nourishing vegetable. The onion bulb is mass of thickened leaves. but the tops are thin leaves full of the important nutriments of such vegetables as spinach. chard and so forth.
 Keep in mind that the green tops of spring onions are an ex- cellent source of vitamin A and should be used rather than thrown away. Carefully washed, crisped and shredded. they can be com bined with shredded leaf lettuce in a plain green salad or they may be used with other vegetables to give an appetizing tang to the mixture.
 The choice Spanish and Bermu- da onions now in market can be served in a variety of ways. Stuffed and baked, served au gratin and scalloped with macaroni and cheese. these large sweet onions add variety to spring menus.
 Ways of Serving Arc Many.
 The tender spring onions are much easier to digest than the strong -juiced dry ones and are an excellent raw food for this reason. When cooked they are, naturally less flavorsome than the winter varieties and make delicate and

Prescribing Chic For The Spring InDalid
BY JOAN SAVOY fNEA Service Vrffef|

A stunning bed jacket and bed cover and pillow set Is just about the most efficacious medicine any convalescent can have.
 If you have been sick and are just at that sitting up stage, prob ably your spirits would soar and your tense nerves relax if you could just see yourself looking like million dollars, though sick.
 It is 8 big mistake not to dress up for sickness. Why not capitalize the little vacation you are getting from work and the daily home routine?
 Aside from its being good psy- ci1ology to look your best, 1t is nice for the family to have you attrac- tive looking.
 A Chance to Rest in Style
 Even if you haven't been i'll, it might be a good idea for you to humor yourself and spend a week end resting up. There is nothing like an absolute rest to get going right for the strenuous life that early summer brings.
 Whether you are sick or merely like to look nice when resting, you will appreciate one of these little convalescent sets spoke of, bed jacket, chaise lounge and pillow set.
 Choose some cheery. flattering color, light and pretty. Apricot, spring green, pale pink, daff yell low or a pinkish lavender.
 This set is made of peach crepe 6e chine, with deep ecru Alencon lace, applfqued in delightful pat terms all over the pillows and the throw and edging the jacket.
 The bed jacket is lovely thing, close fitting, made with long grace full sleeves that are excfting(y fem mine. %
 The sleeves fit close to the elbow, where they fall open in angel sleeve effect. The jacket fits close to the neck in the back, for many m invalid feels chilly at the nape of the neck. Arrayed in such a lovely jacket, any woman would practically be glad to be under the weather for a few days, just to look so nice.

| Some Reasons for stammering I have been asked 50 often for cure for stutterfng that ik seems timely to say something about it. There are specialists who have studied stuttering and effected certain cures. Whether or not they have cured chronic cases I cannot say. In many cases the smal lstumbler will get over his trouble. anyway. Occasionally he does not.
 One theory advanced about so- called incurable stammering is gland affection and I have heard perfected to give relief. Certainly | I hope so, for it seems that something should be done about it.
 But there is some comfort to be found in this thought. A great deal of speech impeachment is re- suit of certain natural psychologi- cal transitions through which a child passes. And very frequently 1t does not last.
 To discuss some of these per- iods may throw light on the situ- ation.
 A little child may learn to pro- nounce his words without any hint of stumbling or repeating. and then suddenly without warning when he is three or four or even five years old he will begin to dup licate his syllables before he can get an entire. word or sentence out. If his parents are patient he may get over it in a few months time. have seen this happen over and over again.
 The explanation Is very simple. At three or four the child begins the second step to life. He gets his first real reactions then from his contacts. He becomes very conscious of self, he establishes himself as a real person. This period is fraught with excitement, intense and sudden interest in new things, impulses crying to be tried out, a hurry to go from one thing to another and rush to tell things that have happened. The world opens up with a bang, so to speak, and very often a natural result is a trip in his words.
 A child of any age may develop sym ptoms of stammering from other reasons. If member of the family or a close friend or relative shutters a boy or girl often un- consciously picks up the habit from sheer imitation. The habit may become fixed and remain or it may yield to suggestion.
 A child who is constantly in hibited and not permitted to carry out any of his natural urges or de- sires, who is superintended too much, "don't-ed" and "mustn ted constantly, may become so tight ened and upset inside as to de- velop a speech abit.
 Also, if he is worried about something secretly, or has been leased or ridiculed. or is filled with a terrible fear, or has constant terror of school and hard lessons
 he may begin to fail in direct ut 1 terance.
 Most children need more sleer
 than they get. High strung, ner- ', vous children cannot have too i much. so I recommend this for tht stutterer, too. Also happy inter ests and exercises.
 i Try to make these children yer, content and peacefully happy Don't scold and don't remind then
 to their affliction or allow play
 mates to do so if you can help i'
 Suggest slowness in speech a
 kindly and tactfully as you can, bu
 be very casual and do not allo'
 the child to think he has becom
 a "case". That does more harr than good.

 Several girls have written to ask what perfume a blonde should wear this spring, or brunette or @ platinum beauty.
 Off-hand, that is a hard proposi- ton to answer. Your nose could do more at short range than one can do without seeing a person or knowing her personality.
 The old rule used to be that a brunette must wear an exotic scent while a blonde is most devastating in some single. fragrance, single flower scent.
 All such rules have been dis carded in this new era we are liv- ing through. Just because woman is brunette is no sign she Is ex- otic.. She might like best and be best suited by lilac perfumery!
 However, there is one. way to discover a perfume you really like and one that suits you. Try 1t. Right on your skin, not your hand kerchief. Some perfumes seem much nicer on than off.
 This year flower scents are very popular. There is a run to gar denia and jasmine for wear with the new blue suits that have white trimmings. It may seem bit fam tastic, yet there is something ap- propriate to your costumes, pro- vided they go well with you.,

 "Of course" Sue was beginning, when she remembered that she would have no way of getting home even then. There was no bus that went very near to the house.
