PAROLE BOARD PLAN
MEETS OPPOSITION
Welfare Body Objects to Proposal
Of Bringing Prisoners
Here.

Opposition to the plan of the Board
o: Indeterminate Sentence and Parole
to have prisoners brought to Washing
ton for hearings on parole instead of
the board making weekly trips to the
District Reformatory at Lorton, Va,
has been registered with the Commits
sioners by members of the Board of
Public Welfare
The change was requested recently
by william w. Bride. former corpora
ton counsel, shortly after he was
named chairman of the Parole Board.
He protested that the present system
occupies too much time of members
OF the board The trip to and from
Lorton. he pointed out, requires about
two hours
The new plan was that prisoners up
for parole consideration be brought to
some institution here. such as the first
police precinct station. Members of
the Welfare Board, however, pointed
out there were from 10 to 80 prisoners
subject to weekly hearings and took
the position 1t might be dangerous to
transport so many to the city.
Also, it was argued, in representa-
tions to the Commissioners, that guards
and witnesses would have to be
brought to the city from Lorton. which
would handicap somewhat the man.

TRIAL BOARD ASKS
OUSTING OF OFFICER
Finds Graham Guilty of Failing
to Post Collateral Col
lected.

Dismissal of Policeman John w
Graham, sixth precinct, was recon-
mended to the District Commissioners
today by police trial board. which
yesterday found him guilty of ac-
cepting S6 as collateral on a traffic
violation but failing to post it with the
Traffic Bureau.
The board was told Graham had
taken the money from John Riley,
friend of Francis A. Norton. 1900
block N street, against whom the
traffic violation had been charged.
The policeman's defense was that he
had been stricken with appendicitis
shortly after receiving the money and
by the time he came back to work he
had forgotten about it.
However. testimony was introduced
that he had told his superior officers
he had given the money back to
Riley He was also found guilty by
the trial board on a charge based on
this alleged falsehood
Other penalties meted out by the
board were S25 fine against Police
man Hugh A. Turner, second precinct,
for moving outside the District, con-
trary to regulations of the District
Commissioners, and $40 against Po-
hceman A. H. Cochran, seventh pre-
cinct, who was found guilty of neglect
of DUTY as result of reporting an
hour late on a special tour of duty.

BY THOMAS 4. HENRY.

The fame Of the mendacious Baron
Munchausen fades before his latest
rival to emerge out of the forgotten
past.
The baron, at least. forbore to de-
scribe Paradise. explaining with due
humility that he never had gotten
farther than the outskirts and hence
had only the most superficial sort of
information about the place. But no
such inhibitions restrained the pen of
one Ibrahim Efendi, who told of the
wonders of the New World in one of
the first books ever published In Con-
stantinople. This strange work, print
ed in 1929, now is in the rare book
division of the Library of Congress.
Ibrahi,n never had been to America.
He only set down the current legends
of the Western world for the informa-
ton Of his countrymen, and in doing
so produced one of the choicest bits
Of Americana extant The "Tarikn El
Hind Ell Garbi" is in rather anti
quated Turkish. but Ibrahim made
his meaning clear with elaborate pic
lures.
He was at his best when he drew
the "wak-wak" tree, the weirdest of
American fora. 1t was from this

|NSPECTS ESTATE
Mrs. ]. Borden Hartman
Suing Raymond T. Baker
for Disfiguring Property.

Mrs. ]. Borden Hartman, New York
and Washington social leader, was to
exhibit to a District Supreme Court
jury this afternoon the huge pile Of
dirt she has left untouched where it
was dumped three years ago on her
Ridge Road estate
She is suing Raymond T. Baker.
former director of the mint, and his
wife, Delphine Dodge Baker, for S25,-
900 to compensate her for the alleged
Disagreement to her property. She
claims the dirt came from the estate
Of Mr.. Baker. which adjoins hers.
Baker Denies Orders.
Mr.. Baker was called as a witness
for the plaintiff early this afternoon.
He denied that he authorized dump
ing of the dirt on Mrs Harriman's s
property and said he knew nothing
about it until after it had been done.
The suit alleges that 4,500 cubic
yards Of earth were dumped into the
hollow on her estate, which she in
tended converting into a sunken gar
den. This is alleged to have occurred
in the Spring of 1881, while she was
in Bermuda.
The jury left the court house at
1890 pm. on an inspection of the
estate
Questioned by Butler.
For a week heavy trucks drove
through the Hartman grounds and
dumped dirt in the hollow, butler
and cook employed by Mrs. Hartman
testified this morning. They were
Andrew Elder and Josephine Robin
son. colored.
Both said they were left alone in
the mansion during Mrs. Harriman's
absence. One morning a truck drove
into the grounds and commenced
dumping load of dirt, they testified.
They said they inquired the purpose
OF this and were told it was "all
right" They said they did not give
any one authority to dump dirt on
Mrs. Harriman's property.

SUPPORT OF COMMITTEE
TO AID c. M. T. c. URGED

Members of the House District
Committee today we're urged by Ralph
c. Bishop, secretary of the Civilian
Military Education Fund, to support
Senate amendment to the War De-
partment appropriation bill. providing
80 days Summer training for 1880
trainees in the Citizens Military
Training Camps.
He pointed out this is the normal
number trained annually since 1927,
with the exception of last year, and
the number for which Congress has
provided facilities. If the amendment
is disapproved, he explained, only IA
600 young men will be trained this
Summer. Aside from military con-
siderati0. he said, the camps give
young men educational benefits of
great value to themselves and the
Nation.

Ol CACTUS.
Probably the old Turk was perfectly
serious. His American wak-wak tree
was an amplification of an idea of
New World vegetation that had con-
siderable currency in Western Europe,
where the naturalists had much bet
ter sources of information.
Another precious volume In the rare
book collection is an English herbal of
the early sixteenth century which de-
scribes the duck BUSH" It was like
hazel bush growing on the banks
of streams. The nuts split open when
they were ripe and the ducklings which
had developed inside them dropped
into the stream and swan away.
Somehow Ibrahim managed to mix
up the duck tree, the apple tree of
Eden and woman into single fan
tastic plant-but so far as Is known
his fanciful wak-wak groves did not
start any great rush of immigration
to the fabulous lands over the sea.
Discoveries In the
French Antarktic."
A more sober picture Of the newly
discovered lands is furnished by Andre
Thevet-"a native of Angoulesne"-
whose Les Singular" published in
1857, is another of the treasures of
the rare book collection.
Thevet was himself traveller, al
though he had never been across the
Atlantic. A priceless volume in the
same collection is guide to the Holy
Land which he took with him when
he visited the Near East and covered
with marginal notations This same
book afterward became the property of
Nine. Pompadour. 1t may have been
stolen from the old geographer.
