.MADCAP RIDER
Is GIRL Of 18

Much of the allure of the
circus is due to pretty girls, beau
tiful horses and droll clowns, and
their combinations, enhanced by
the white top symphony Of
trumpeting elephants, roaring
jungle beasts, and the music of
the big show bands, is considered
almost irresistible to all.
That's just a means of calling
attention to the stunning girl
and the white horse in the pic
ture.
She is Dorothy Herbert, 18,
of Louisville, KY, and one of the
radiant riding stars with the
Ringing Brothers and Barnum
and Bailey circus, which comes
to washington Monday.
She is daring and easy to look
upon, and wherever "the greatest
show on earth" exhibits, she is
known as a madcap rider of
reinless jumping and rearing
horses. Her favorite mount,
Tempest, is favored by her
among all the TOO horses with the
show.

DEMOCRAT RAPS
TAKOMA VOTE
FORLEWTON
Major Lee BIames Defeat of
Mayor Davis on "Sore.
heads" and "Job Hunt"

DR.. Frederick L. Lewton's
victory against the regular
Democratic cand idate for
mayor of Takoma Park. was
branded a "job hunt" by
Major E. Brooke Lee, a leader
in Montgomery county Demo
cratic affairs.
Lewton, an organization voter
until his election May 2, downed
Mayor Ben G. Davis by a vote Of
666 to COS.
Lewton's hackers made political
capital of the pratings Of sore
heads" among which were those
who insisted that Takoma Park
was not getting as many civic
improvements as Silver Spring,
Lee charged.
"HOme Rule" Critics Raped
In fact, Lee said, Takoma Park
| is getting a high school of its
own instead of sharing one with
Silver Spring in the center of the
metropolitan area of the coming
few years. The same attitude is
taken concerning roads, said Lee,
in answering the criticisms of the
"home rule" factions of Takoma
Park.
Lewtoh's victory, he said, is not
due to the failure of the county
and District to aid in the develop
ment of Takoma Park, but in the
desire of individuals to build
themselves up politically.
Bank Rift Cited
One important upset in the
mayoralty election was the last
minute switch from Davis to Lew.
ton of the three members of the
council up for reelection.
Another was the successful
leadership of Heber Votaw, Ad-
ventist and director of the Citi.
zens Bank, which for years has
been refused the right by the
city council to build new bank
beyond the building line of Car
roll Street.
Mayor Davis, in turn, is head
of the Takoma Park Bank,

.JAKWAY TALKS
START TODAY

Opportunity for women to learn

ration will be provided in series
Of lectures today, Wednesday and
Thursday afternoons at 2:30, de-
livered by Bernard c. Jakway at
the National Museum Auditorium
under the auspices Of The Wash
tngton Times.
The lectures are cordially ap-
proved by Mrs. Albert N. Baggs,
president of the Housekeeper's
Alliance, who advises frequent
changes in home decoration, in
order that interiors may not be-
come tiresome. She says:
''The personality Of the home
maker should be expressed in
the decoration of the home.
One should feel this influence
as soon as one enters a home.
1T is difficult for some wO-.
men, if they have to use furni-
ture they do not like particu-
larly well, hnt they can express
their ideas in their color
schemes or in the arrangement
Of the furniture.
young people should not try
to do the whole house at first,
If their means are limited, but
might better concentrate on a
few vital pieces and develop
the rest slowly. Now that
pieces in good design and good
taste can be bought at such un-
commonly moderate prices, it is
easy to get good results at low
cost. Good reproductions are
within the reach Of practically
everyone.
The motto of the Home Makers
Alliance is that home-making is
the Oldest of the arts and the
newest of the professions.

That was the plea today OF
Ira K. Gruver, of Ryattsville,
whose 17-year-old son has been
missing since last Thursday.
The boy wandered into the
woods near Fairfax after the auto
mobile accident on the Little River
Pike in which his mother, Mrs
Elizabeth Gruver was instantly
killed. He has been seen only once
since then when he returned fol-
a few minutes late Thursday to
the scene of the accident. Learn
ing of his mothers death, Allen
fled into the woods again. He was
at the wheel Of the Gruver cal
when it crashed into a pole.
His father said today:
eve still feel sure that the
boy is alive. He was badly dazed
by blow on the head received
in the crash, and by the shock
of learning of his mothers
death. Maybe he has wandered
far away from where the acci-
dent happened, but I know that
If he only realized how badly
we want him he would come
back to us.
"PeOpIe here and in Virginia
have been wonderful in helping
us look for him. But he could
have wandered so far by this
time that it seems almost hope
less to look for him near Fair
fax an. more. But If the boy
only .Snew how much grief his
loss has caused us he would
return"

 Various Rumors
 When the trial started there were rumors that other persons might be involved because it was stated that Mrs. Judd, slight of build and of small weight, would have been unable to have dismembered the bodies of the two women, packed them in trunks and prepared them for shipment by express. by her self.
 Rumors of gay parties and jeal- GUS motives were also forecast but little of this was actually entered into the trial.
 Mrs. Judd was not placed on the stand in her own defense.
 Various letters written by Mrs. Judd, especially one to her hus- band, which was found in rest room of a Los Angeles department store, were introduced in evidence. This letter was practically a con- fession of guilt of the staying of the two women

 The municipality of Vienna has 25, 1000 persons on it's payroll It pays pensions to 17,O00 others.
 Only three years have passed since the old age pension law TOT industrial workers went into ef- feet, so there are only 77,300 per sons drawing pensions of this class.
 Pensions paid by private firms and corporations are estimated at 3O0,0O0.
 Municipalities outside of Vienna add about 5O,O00 to the public private pension dist.
 In other words, more than 625.- 900 Austrians are drawing pensions.
 The governments share of this financial burden is acutely in- creased just now by unemployment insurance paid to 43o,o0O jobless.
 Traces Back To Empire Splitup l1leTt olt liidllJ iNeioOllo lOl tllC unusual growth of pension lists in Austria. One of the most impor tant is, that when the Austro- Hun garian empire was dismembered after the war, thousands of civil service, railway and school em- ployes living in what are now parts of Czcheslovakia, Hungary, Runa- nia, Jugoslavia and Italy, clung to ttheir Austrian citizenship and came to Vienna.
 Rather than treat these faithful employees Ibrutally, the authorities here found places for many of them and later pensioned older workers to make room for the younger generation.
 Thousands of this class of pen sioners. not being superannuated, found new jobs to supplement their incomes. A few even manage to hold two jobs in addition to draw ing the pension.
 This naturally makes for denun- citations of the "doppelverdiener" (doilble-earner) by those who would create opportunity for the unemployed.
