BOARD ASKS MORE
PHYSICAL TRAINING.
Increased Program in City
Schools Sought With
New Director.

Early formation Of a considerably
enlarged department of physical edu-
cation in the District public schools,
headed by a director with wide pow
erS, was indicated at Board Of Edu-
cation meeting yesterday when the
retirement of the present director, DR..
Rebecca Stoneroad, was announced.
No definite action was taken pend
ing report from the special commit
tee headed by Henry I. Quinn. board
member, which some time ago was
designated to study the physical edu-
cation and athletics set up. The con-
sensus of members, however, seemed
to favor the suggestion made by Supt
Frank w. Ballou that DR.. Stoneroad's
successor be selected with the thought
in mind of choosing a person fitted
to direct all physical training activi-
ties in the public schools.
DR.. Ballou asked the board whether
the dictatorship should be made to
include charge of athletics in the
senior high schools, which formerly
has been regulated by the Board Of
Principals. He expressed the opinion
a man could best fill the post.
Wide Scope Urged.
Quinn suggested that a new and
greatly enlarged physical education
program be started with the appoint
ment of a new director. He urged
that the director be given broad
powers.
Mrs. Henry Grattan Doyle, board
vice president. said she thought the
schools should have "a comprehensive
physical education program extending
from the kindergarten through high
school" When such program gets
into motion. the school board should
go to Congress and get money to make
possible a larger personnel, she said.
The new program is expected to be
based on a comprehensive system of
medical examination for all school
children. DR.. Ballou now is studying
this problem, but has not yet reported
his findings to the board. School Off
cials predict that it will coordinate
all athletics, including inter-school
competition. the remedying of physi-
cal defects and class room instruction
into an ordered course aimed at the
physical welfare and improvement of
every child.
DR.. Stoneroad, who has been direc-
tor of physical education since the
department was organized 46 years
ago, was lauded by DR.. Ballou in a
formal statement to the board. She
has been teacher for 49 years. Last
January l she reached the age of 70
years, the automatic retirement mark,
and will relinquish her Office at the
end of this month.

portance he devoted himself to stirring
up race prejudice and had arrayed
race against race. The Negro race
needs more friends, not more enemies.
De Priests party was out of power and
he could get nothing from his district
and he was part of the Republican
reactionaries opposing Roosevelt's re-
covery program.
II ran as New Dealer, Roosevelt
man and for paying the bonus. The
fine record of Franklin Roosevelt in
his treatment of the Negro helped me
in my campaign and I got a break
when Sylvester Harris, a Negro farmer
in Mississippi telephoned the White
House to beg for relief from a mort
gage burden and Mr.. Roosevelt per-
sonally saw that he got it. That was
proof of equality before the law under
Roosevelt.
Sees Hope in New Deal
"If the Negroes can't see that their
hope for the future is with a pro-
gresSive Democratic party led by
Franklin Roosevelt, then there is only
one thing for them to do and that is
to remain in the Republican party.
Il am going to ask for the passage
of an anti-lynching law. A law OF
that kind will not prevent lynching
any more than the law against muir
der prevents murder, but believe
that there should be laws against
every crime.

The group which arrived today
was composed of SO South American
Saarlanders, who took advantage of
the Greman fronts offer of free
transportation to enable them to par
ticipate in Sundays plebiscite.
The South Americans were the first
foreign voters to learn Immediately
upon their arrival that there is stub
born opposition to the Nazis in the
territory.
Communists were ordered to be on
hand for the arrivals, beginning to-
morrow, of $4,000 Germans in special
trains. Communist posters appeared
on billboards.
Meanwhile, the international army
sent here by the League of Nations
made final arrangements to deal with
mass demonstrations expected to &C
company the Saar plebiscite Sunday
English and Italian tank and
armored car companies, ordered to
cooperate in case of necessity, were
sent through joint maneuvers near
Dillingen.
A drive for division of the Saar into
two distinct political and geographical
sections should the vote favor return
to Germany, as is anticipated by OBJ
servers, was launched by anti-Nazis
In a protest sent the League they
said the latter must take existing
Nal terrorism into consideration when
it interprets the final result of the
plebiscite."
Many threats of reprisals after the
plebiscite have been reported.

|: s. COURT ENTRY
BELIEVED CERTAIN
Protocols Practically Sure
of Senate'S Consent-Pro-
tests Unlikely.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN.

Adherence of the United States to
the World Court knocks again at the
Senate door.
The protocols providing for Ameri-
can intry into the Court are practi-
cally sure of ratification, under the
resolution reported favorably by the
Foreign Relations Committee yester-
day, by vote of IA to Z, once the
matter is brought to vote.
The committee, in reporting the
protocols to the Senate has included
in its resolution provision which, in
effect, retains in full operation reserva-
tion S, attached to the World Court
resolution of ratification adopted in
1925 by the Senate. 1t was this reser-
vation, relating to advisory opinions
that may be given by the World Court
and declaring that no request for such
an opinion should be entertained in
any matter in which the United States
has or claims to have an interest over
the objection of this country.
Reservation an Obstacle.
It was this reservation which proved
a stumbling block eight years ago to
American membership in the Court.
Member nations objected
Administration leaders in the
Senate, among them Senator Pittman
of Nevada, chairman of the Foreign
Relations Committee, insist, however,
that the member nations may be ex-
pected to raise no further objection to
American entry into the Court. If the
Senate ratifies again, as it is expected
to do, and other nations should again
protest, the whole action will have
been particularly futile. But the un-
derstanding is that the State Depart
ment is convinced that protests will
not be forthcoming and that entry of
America is only a question of time
depending largely on how quickly the
Senate will act.
The "irreconcilables," opposed to
membership of this country in the
World Court because, they say, sit is
the League of Nations court" will
continue to make fight against rati-
fication. 1t was noticeable, however,
that in the Foreign Relations Commit
tee itself the vote stood IA to z, in
proportion exactly the two-thirds vote
necessary to ratify in the Senate itself
Root Drafted Formula.
Elihu Root went to Europe several
years ago and worked out formula
which was declared to be agreeable to
the other nations, but which at the
same time was declared to safeguard
the interests of this country in con-
formity with reservation 5. The

probably will result in an arrest and a
test case under the District child labor
law, the Board of Education delegated
its president, DR.. Hayden Johnson, to
confer with Corporation Council E.
Barrett Prettyman to map a definite
course Of action. Both DR.. Johnson,
who is a prominent attorney, and
Prettyman have agreed that the
child's performance would be in viola
ton of the law.
The two men have disagreed sharp
ly, however, on proper Interpretation
of the law, DR.. johnson holding to a
strict construction which would estab-
lish hard and fast test of legality,
while Prettyman would make the law
hinge to large extent on the effect
of the employment on the individual
child.
Conference Requested.
In letter received yesterday, the
board was informed by Prettyman
that he thought he and DR.. Johnson
could reach an agreement. He re-
quested the conference.
The matter is expected to come be-
fore the board again at its next meet
ing.
DR.. johnson and Prettyman are in
disagreement on the proposed appear

The board directed school officers to
treat employees sympathetically wher
cases come before them of attempts
to collect debts. DR.. Ballou said the
percentage of teachers owing long
overdue bills is extremely small. If
the school officers cannot adjust the
debt matters, the cases will be turned
over to the boards Personnel Com
