BAILEY STORES
|. IN NEW SPACE

Wilson Bailey, general man
ager of the Bailey Tire Stores,
U. S. Tire distributors and largest
retail independent tire firm in
Washington, announced leasing Of
the three-story building at the
corner of Fourteenth and P Streets
Northwest.
The main store and warehouse
will be centralized in the new
location during the coming week.
Though business generally is now
emerging from its low level, the
Bailey Tire Stores have expert
enced a steady growth to the
extent that larger quarters were
necessary.
The new location is conceded
to be one of the most prominent
locations on Automobile Row and
has for years been occupied by
automobile distributors.

2 CHICAGO GANG
THUGS SLAIN

CHICAGO, Sept. 9 G.N.SJ.
Separate flareups Of gunplay
which brought death to two no
torious gangsters sent raiding po-
lice squads today on a widespread
roundup of racketeers and gun
men.
James Tribble, 40, ex-convict
and member Of the Terrible"
Touhy gang, was shot and killed
in a bold raid on the Chicago
Teamsters' Union headquarters.
His two companions in the raid,
one of VIII ON was believed
wounded, escaped.
Three hours later Nick CThe
Little Man~ Muscato, 20, leader
of the AZ Gang, was taken for a
ride and his body unceremoni-
ously dumped on the front steps
of the Cook County Hospital. His
slayers roared away in an auto
mobile.
Police attributed the Little
Napoleon's" murder to the execu-
ton of a fellow gangster carried
out three years ago on the gang
leaders orders.
Tribble's two companions in the
raid were identified as Thomas
Touhy, brother Of the gang
chieftain, Roger, now awaiting
trial for the kidnapping Of Will

More disqualification
Main Objective
For 1884

"The things people die from
are high living and violence. In
depressiOns, the whole tone of
living is lowered, and many fall
prey to lingering diseases, but a
curtailment of exceSSes and
elimination of strains on the
heart keep people going. This
is false encouragement, because
such living is stark and un-
happy"
Appropriations to private reliefs
fell off last year because citizens
felt they were doing their share
in contributing to the soup
kitchens, because their own in
comes were cut, and because, in
many cases. they were supporting
relatives and friends who were
jobleSs.
Now, with more people working,
with some raising of wages, and
with the current optimism, social
workers hope individuals will give
thank offerings" to private well
fare work.

Mrs. Read admitted she had

That recognition Of social

D. Roosevelt is going to work
when the smoke Of battle has
cleared never will take monu.
mental form if the social workers
have anything to say about it.
The men and women who make
up the ranks Of "peacetime sol
diers" do not want a statue in
their honor, delegates to the 1888
Mobilization for Human Needs
Conference declared today.
Mrs. Roosevelt, paying tribute
to trained alleviators of human
misery, has promised personally
to lead a movement to recognize
the Importance of social workers
in pulling out of the depression.
Intelligence Urged
But Miss Elizabeth Webster,
acting director of the Chicago
Council of Social Agencies, said:
"SOcial workers stand for use
fullnesS, not monuments. We
don't hope for recognition, but
if it comes, let us hope it is
intelligent. If any movement
of the kind could make the
public more intelligent about
trained workers, it would be a
good thing. 1t ought to take
the form of a scholarship or a
fund for research"
Miss Ruth Hill, Of the Family
Welfare Association of America,
suggested buttons to
be worn by depression workers
some day as service stripes are
worn by wartime soldiers.
Their Names Will Live
Mrs. John M. Glenn, wife Of
the former director of the Russell
Sage Foundation, felt that per-
sonalities among social workers
would live after themselves as
monuments to the work, just as
Florence Nightingale stands as a
to nursing and Octavia
Hill to housing. Jane Addams,
social worker, is recognized dis
tinct from her service under any
particular banner, she pointed
out.
Social workers are grateful for
the recognition Mrs. Roosevelt al
ready has shown them by identi-
fication of her ow21 services with
their cause, said David H. Hol-
brook, secretary Of the National
Social Work Council. He de-
clared:

Mobilization Session Votes
Work Necessary Despite
Government Activities
international News Service

Community chests will be con-
tinued this year, working hand in
hand with the national campaign
for general welfare, it was de-
cided today at the closing session
of the 1888 Mobilization for
Human Needs at the Mayflower
Hotel.
Although 95 per cent of actual
relief work formerly done by
private social agencies has been
assumed by Federal, State and
municipal governments, communl
ties will need in 1884 as large
funds as ever, said Arch Mandel
of the Community Chest of Day
ton, Ohio. He said:
"Hospitals are on their last
legs, with free care increasing.
Children's agencies are forced
to carry greater financial
burden because of the increased
number of children in their
care.
ONE AN OPTIMIST
Character building work and
leisure-time activity, because of
the shortened working day and
the large numbers of people
still unemployed, have become
even more necessary than in
prosperous years."
While some members Of the
conference expressed apprehen-
sion about the fun-raising cam
paign of double nature, for Gov
ernmental plus private relief
work, Fred Goldstone of the Mil
waukee Community Chest, was
optimistic. He asserted:
1--WE are fairly cheerful be-
cause of the general recovery
of business in Milwaukee and
also because of the recovery Of
Milwaukee's leading industry
this year."
SOCIAL WORK CODE
The conference decided that To-
cal community chests would be
required to contribute a specified
percentage per member to the
National Community Chest and
Councils, Inc, not exceeding $75,"
600, to cover the expenses of the
combined campaigns.
Allen T. Burns, executive direc-
tor of Community Chests and
Councils, Inc, explained that a
"code" for social workers is pure
ly voluntary, no agency being re-
quired by law to live up to the
NRA regulations. The President
in his opening speech, "absolved''
social workers from guilt if they
worked 70 hours a week.

MONDAY
Final Blow to State Near;
Staying Trial Case Will Go to
Jury Sometime Next Week

SAN JOSE, Cal, Sept. 8
O.N.SO O.-Delicately perfumed let
ters today brought slow smile
to the tanned face of David A.
Lamson, handsome Stanford Uni
versity Press executive, as he sat
in his cell in the old Santa Clara
county Jail and perused the mail
mans offering.
Charged with beating his beau
tiful young wife, Allene, to death
in their campus bungalow, the
former university dramatic and
Journalistic favorite went through
his mail, sorting the familiar from
the unfamiliar scrolls.
Into Waste Basket
Among the latter he found mes
sages from girls and women in
various parts of the country
messages of sympathy, encourage
ment and even of affection.
However, the stricken feminine
hearts found no answering beat
beneath Lamson's red Stanford
sweater.
He shook his head, apparently
puzzled, and shook the missives
into a wastebasket. He said:
"Quite silly and ridiculous"
The 31-year-old defendant could
see the end of long, difficult
trail-a trail stretching behind
him for three weeks. a trail of
testimony and exhibits in a hot,
stuffy courtroom.
But the end was in sight, for a
jury should be given the case next
week.
And-Then What?
And then, the gallows, imprison.
ment, or freedom.
The way seemed clear to Lam
son. He said:
"I 'epeat that I'm innocent
and therefore l think I'll be
acquitted"
The States case is in and the
defense probably will finish
Tuesday with a trip to the death
bungalow.
But Monday heavy blows will
be struck for Lamson, perhapS
the heaviest of the defense pre-
Sentation.
DR.. E. o. Heinrich, famed
criminologiSt of Berkeley, CAL,
will resume the stand and give
his many reasons why he thinks
the defendant is unjustly ac-
cuSed.
AS court closed yesterday,
Chief Defense Counsel E. M.
Rea was just getting Heinrich
to the important parts of his
testimony.
For an hour Rea had the
Berkeley man on the stand, let

impressive mannerismS and listen

THE BEAUTY PAGEANT, AT
LANTTC CITY, N. j., Sep. 9
QN.S0.-A thing of beauty is a
Joy forever 4. but pardon me. Mr.
Keats, have you ever seen your
home towns entry in a parade of
pulchritude?
No nice girls SwearS. but every
nice gal wears one-piece bathing
scanty without the least sugges-
ton Of a back in beauty contest.
Miss ID. C. Aids Her
At least that's what Rita (M;ss
District of Columbia, to yoU and
found out for ourselves today.
We found out some other things
too-it's not done to drink
cocktail or allow strangers to
speak to you or to smoke.
What kind Of reputation would
a contestant get if she were to
be seen smoking cigarette?
Get in By Dawn
You answer that one-I thought
1t better not to.
There's also some rule about
keeping hours-but no one has
been able to find out much about
that so far. Everything seems to
be all right if you make sure to
come home in the daylight.
But bathing suits aren't all the
girls wear. They had a contest
for the best-looking girl in evening
dress. One of the 10 girls who got
in the finals didn't have an eve
ming dress but finally one of her
rivals grew generous and lent her
one.
One Of the contestants rode
around in a gingham number
wearing no hat or stockings and
looked cool to me, but it seems
that she wasn't dressed that way
because of the temperature-she
just didn't have any other clothes
and her sponsor couldn't find the
cash at that moment to do any
thing constructive about it.
Several Of the girls seem to be
down to their last bathing suit
and brasSiere, showing that the
NRA hasn't yet succeeded in doing
much for the beauty pageant
sponsors.
One of these boys had to take
quite a bit Of kidding when it got
out that his little charge had run
so short on lingerie that she had
to make an old pair Of pajama
pants with the lower part cut off
take the place of all the lace frills.
Brunettes Numerous
was surprised to see that
there were more brunettes than
blondes and even more surprised
when after expert scrutiny I saw
that two of the blondes were
naturally that way.
Out of the whole bunch only
Miss Michigan had a dark coat
OF tan. Most of the brunettes
had long hair.
Last night, before dinner, Rita
took me around and introduced
me to some of her fellow contest
ants.
A Bedside Call
We had to visit one at her
bedside, because she was running
a high temperature.
I asked her how she happened
to go into the contest. She con-
fided:
"T had always heard Of a
lobster being expensive, SO
ordered it. They brought me a
funny-lOOking pink thing with
yellow sauce. had trouble
finding out what part 1 was to
eat and then they brought me
a special little fork and every
thing went fine. certainly
wish I'd never found out how
to eat the things"
