one day, returning to my hotel, I
find a crowd blocking the entrance.
The thought Of a robbery, possibly

But no. 1t is friendly encoun-

men and women. spy a young Ger

room.
He looks bewildered, but so would

throng.
My guide joins me in an almost
hopeless attempt to enter the hotel.
My feet are stepped on, I am pushed
around and then lose sight Of my
guide.
There is an increased upheaval
in the crowd. 1 reach the hotel
door just as the guide tears forth,
dragging the German lad by the
hand. He is hot and perspiring and
close to collapse.
We lead him to a chair before he
faints.
He had started out for a walk, he
explains. In front of the hotel he
inquired directions from a passing
Russian. The German was wear
ing a Communist pin. Instead of
answering his question, the Russian
asked him:
You're a German delegate? How
are the comrades doing there? How
many are visiting Moscow? Will it
be long before a Soviet is estab-
lished in das Vaterland? Is it true
that people are starving abroad?
Are they not envious because every

HOWARD j. JAN|TOR
ACCUSED OF FRAUD.
Three Counts of FaIse-Pre-
tense Are Returned in
Grand Jury Report.

The grand jury investigation OF
Howard University resulted today in the
indictment of Eugene Cough, colored
janitor, on charge of false pretenses
He is accused of padding" the pay
rolls of his Office so that his son, Sam
uel Cough, was carried on the rolls for
six weeks and was paid $75 after he
had returned to school in Virginia. The
son had been previously employed dur
ing the vacation.
United States Attorney Leo A. Rover
explained that the money said to have
be IN paid out to the son came from the
private funds of the university and did
not affect congressional appropriations
for the institution.
The indictment is in three counts,
one applying to each of the semi
monthly pay rolls of September 80.
october l and October Is. 1t is al
legged that among the employees of the
university on September 80 last were
Emmett ]. Scott, Albert I. Cassell,
Daniel w. Edmunds and Eugene Cough
and that Edmunds was the cashier
authorized to pay out and disburse
certain funds of the school; that
Cough represented to Scott, Cassell
formed janitorial services for the uni
versity between September Is and 80
and was entitled to receive $25 for
this service. Edmunds, the cashier,
relying on that claim, paid out s25 of
the funds of the university to Cough.
The second count deals with the pay
roll of october Is and the third count
with the October 80 pay roll Fur
ther sums of S25 on each occasion are
said to have been paid out to the
Janitor on account of the alleged serv-
ices of his son.
