The veteran polar bear above
died Of old age in his den at the
Zoo yesterday after more than 33
years as a prime favorite with
Washington children.
He was one of the only polar
bears in captivity to like peanuts,
a circumstance which may or may
not have contributed to his long
life. Strangely enough. the African
eagle, which escaped from its cage
two weeks ago, refused to leave
the scene Of its captivity. Although
eagles are supposed to be liberty
loving rovers of the substratosphere
this one hung around the bird
house waiting for handouts. A
wire trap was set and baited for
him and a keeper sat for days on
end. a string attached TO a trigger
in his hands. The eagle, only one
Of its sort in America, is one
Of the Zoos most valuable birds
Yesterday the bait tempted it
into the trap for the first time
and an alert keeper captured the
fugitive. The eagle seemed rather
disconsolate today after his brief
taste Of freedom.

by various civic groups.
Pickett Blames Public.
In his address, Pickett said: Fun
damentally, the cause of typical gang
ster crime in the District of Columbia
is the failure of the people themselves
to realize the close relation between
crime and liquor, vice and gambling.
The anti-gambling law Is defective, SO
is the law in regard to immoral sohc1-
tation on the streets. Our courts are
perhaps no less clumsy in dealing with
criminals than the courts OF the va
rions States, but in the last analysis
the responsibility comes right back to
the people themselves who have never
yet been able to realize that we can't
play the numbers and the races with
out encouraging murder.
"It has been estimated that one
third of our population in the Nations
Capital play the numbers. Almost
every community has its agent who
gets a per cent commission with 70
per cent going to the runner and 10
per cent to the operator. 1t is nothing
less than a racket, victimizing the
people, cutting seriously into the in
come of poor families, and is a heavy
drag on small business in almost every
city block.
I'VE have about 10 big shot gam
blers in the District and it is time for
the authorities to 60 after them in
the same spirit with which the De-
partment of Justice went after Dill
linger and with the united community
sentiment behind the effort Unless
these men are put where they belong,
made incapable of terrorizing wit
nesses, made to realize that they can
not organize gang wars and extortion
in this territory. we will pay a heavy
price for our indifference. The ex-
ploitation of weak women and the
exploitation Of credulous bettors are
closely allied.
There ought to be more teeth in
the gambling law. Congress should
make it an offense to be in possession
of a receipt for a bet. The District
should demand that Maryland close
'Jimny's Place and keep 1t closed, or
at least keep out cars which now are
sent into the District for the purpose
of transporting patrons to these
places. The vice squad should have
many additional inspectors to cover
the more than 1900 liquor selling
places in the Capital Street walkers
should not be allowed to put up SIS
collateral and forfeit it,.

Eyeing Brief.

The controversy between Peoples
Counsel William A. Roberts and the
Public Utilities Commission over the
street car rerouting case appeared to
have simmered down considerably
today, as the commission declined TO
be drawn further into the matter
The last word from either side was
a statement by Roberts accusing the
commission of not telling ''the whole
truth. Members of the commission
said today they would rest on the
record.
1t started when Roberts, in his re-
routing brief accused the commission
of predetermining parts of the re-
routing case. The commissions re-
joinder was a long statement that
Roberts had approved all of the prof.

own admirable impassivity to

knowledge of the code, declared
that he had just found the Blue
Eagle in his window when he
got back from China two months
ago and maintained his inno-

Recorder Kaveny expressed
doubt that Lee knew about the
code. He also held that the
State had failed to present a
prima facie case, in failing to
prove the existence of the code,
and that the date of the alleged

Moreover, he said that the

a Chinese laundryman, charged
with violating the State laundry
code, successfully won his way to
freedom when he was arraigned
here before Recorder Thomas B.

Judge Kavenly dismissed the

A constitutional amendment

all meetings held by your local Emergency Relief Committee and wish to express to you my admira- ton for the spirit of self-restraint and unselfishness manifested in the preparation of their estimates of amounts required for relief and re- mobilization. Have read their tele- gram to you and am sure the esti- mates stated therein of losses sus- tained and funds required for re- mobilization were arrived at only after very careful and conservative consideration of each item and represent minimum requirements to meet adequately the existing emergency.
 The evident oS,,sirte of the citi- zens here to proceed with the least possible outside assistance and their cheerful acceptance of the staggering losses sustained are inspiring, and merit the highest praise"

TRAPPED BY FIRE

WREXHAM, Wales, Sept. 22.- One hundred coal miners are be- lieved to have been killed in a terrific explosion which was fol- lowed by fire in the Gresford Col fiery
 The men were trapped nearly two miles from the mouth of tEe pit
 Poisonous gases and a wall of flames barred the rescuers.
 The explosion occurred in sec tion ranging from 300 to 1,20O yards below the surface.
 Mournful Scene
 At the pits mouth miners and women are standing in pouring rain waiting for news. Now and then one faints, collapsing into pools of water.
 Clergymen are assisting in filling sand bags which are used in fight ing the fire, one crying quietly as he worked as two of his choir boys are trapped in the mine.
 Nearly 400 men were in the workings at the time of the blast but it is said more than half were in a part of the mine far from where the fire is raging and made their way out unharmed. The others were working more than one and one half miles from the mouth of the pit.

 Temporary Housing Need
 Some temporary housing, such as barracks, will be needed before winter, MT. Taylor informed the Governor. Materials. he added, can probably be purchased from Nome dealers, but if it is necessary a list of materials unobtainable, will be wired here as soon as possible.
 EZRA funds now available, he said, are sufficient for clearing up the city and immediate relief, but an additional $50,000 will be needed to insure adequate relief during the winter months.
 The Central Committee was praised by him for the competent manner in which it is handling the situation. MT Taylor expected tt leave Nome today for Anchorage by plane if weather conditions per mitted. Unfavorable flying weather had prevented N. Lester Troas from coming to Nome from Xvi lima. He will make the trip as sooi as it clears off.
