NEW YORK, Mar-,h 11.-Moses w.

yesterday under a subway train in the
Bronx. He was 48 years old.
Many prominent persons had sat for

opinion he tainted and fell beneath

Among the per; ons who have sat for

PLANS ORDINANCE
FOR COURT FUNDS.
Arlington Board Member Be-
|ieves County Can Retain
Fines Now Going to State.
BY a Stan Correspondent of The Star.

ARLINGTON COURT HOUSE, Va,
March lin an effort to transfer
more of the burden of maintaining the
County Court upon the law violators
and less upon the taxpayers, Lyman M
Kelley, member of the County Board
will seek the passage of ordinances
which will permit the retention by the
county Of many fines now going to the
State, he announced today.
It is now costing the county $4,476
annually for the maintenance of the
court, Kelley said, and last year there
was only $1,535.53 returned to the
county in fines and costs, as against
$2,252.10, which went to the State. Kel-
ley believes that through the special
acts under which Arlington County is
operating 1t will be possible for the
board to pass ordinances paralleling
more of the State laws than are now
paralleled, thus permitting the county
to retain more Of the fines and costs.
The maintenance costs quoted did not
include any portion of the compensa-
ton of the clerk Of the court, the Sec
retary to the Commemorative attorney
or the assistant to the Commonwealth
attorney, Kelley said.
The County Court was placed in op-
Grafton at the time the new form of
county government became effective
over year ago.

Workers" approval can come only
from observers who leer at missteps
and laugh at deception.
As motion-picture attraction,
Fast Workers" currently offered at
the Palace Theater. has some excel
lent scenes among the structural
iron workers, in their favorite re-
treat, far above the city streets.
When they walk across steel beams
IN the sky line, dance on impro-
vised platforms far above the traffic,
and shuttle each other around, ap-
parently at imminent peril, they
arouse admiration on the part of the
multitude which is incapable of
doing those things. They are dem
onstrating the achievements Of skill
and courage, which invariably arouse
interest and inspire applause. This
part of the film is to be commended,
and with it Is the thrilling incident
of the worker who falls from the
upper framework and nearly loses
his life. There is no fault in the
mechanical side of the picture.
The case of John Gilbert and Mae
Clarke is different. The man has
been seen in some charming produc-
tions, and the woman has in times
past been a figure of modest senti-
ment. The former is star and the
latter has qualities which should be
conserved by the screen, for they
have to do with the mind, and the
intellect is always valuable factor
in good plays. Notwithstanding the
deceptive character Of some of the
motion picture titles, in this in
stance, the substance of the attrac-
tion is exactly what the title indi-
Gates. AS an added element, a
faithful friend of both man and
woman, trusting soul, is robbed of
cash and friendship. while the literal
fast workers consume his wealth.
Their primitive impules are neither
striking nor stimulating, and they
enact sordid story To those who
like that sort of thing, it is a con-
glomerate Of comedy, satire, extrava-
ganza and burlesque. To the Sc
rious minded, 1t is a sad study in
human character.
The Palace has very amusing
Laurel and Hardy comedy, with q
baby as the inspiration of numerous
screams, while the famous trapeze
artists, the Codonas, offer q film of
startling feats. There is Fitzpat-
rick traveltalk, and other short
films include the animated cartoon
and the news reel. D.C.C.

Several Examples of Dykaar's Work As
on Exhibition Here.

In the 16 years he had been in TINS
country Moses Dykaar had fashioned
busts Of more than score of national
political, military and labor leaders. The
last of his completed works was marble
OF Gen. John j. Pershing, which was
delivered to the National Gallery OF
Art here Wednesday and placed in its
halls for exhibition.
Dykaar was a self-taught artist. who
did his first work as boy in his ma
tive Russia before he had ever heard OF
modelling clay. Although in later years
he studied in Paris and was tutored
diligently by sculptorS there who be-
came interested in his talent, Dykaar
never departed from the realistic, pho
tographic technique developed during
his early, crude experimentation with
sculpture.
AS national galleries and political as
semblieS usually are interested IN OBJ
tanning likenesses rather than interpre-
tations of the Nations leaders, Dykaar
was engaged for many important COM
missions after he came to the United
States in 1916.
Work on Exhibition Here.
One of the first Americans he did in
marble was Alexander Graham Bell.
This bust is now in the National Gal
lery. Those who sat for him included
Hudson Maxim, the inventor; President
and Mrs. Coolidge, President Harding,
Nicholas Longworth and Mrs. Alice
Roosevelt Longworth, Champ Clark,
Vice President Marshall, Vice President
Curtis, Chief Justice Charles Evans
Hughes of the Supreme Court, former
Chief Justice Wendell Phillips Stafford
of the District Supreme Court and many
others.
The busts of the Vice Presidents and
Presidents were placed in the Senate
wing OF the Capitol, while most OF the
other works are on exhibition in the art
section of the National Museum.
w. H. Holmes, the former curator
of the National Gallery of Art, was
close friend of the sculptor and set
aside a studio in the museum for his
use. Dykaar's bust of Holmes Is
permanent possession of the gallery.
The artist also had studio at 81 Filth
avenue in New York.
Marble Considered Best.
AS an example of Dykaar's uncanny
ability to create in marble minute
likeness of his subjects, 1t is said that
when he did bust of Samuel Gompers
some 10 years ago and the statue was
unveiled at banquet in Atlantic City,
Mr.. Gompers burst into tears, remark
ing he did not know marble could cap
ture features so faithfully.
Dykaar worked in marble, clay and
compositions, but his idealized statues
and busts in marble were considered his
best.
