OYSTERS COME.
T0D.C. WHARF

With the waters of four more
counties on Chesapeake Bay
opened yesterday to oystermen,
shipments of the molluSks to
Washington were increasing to-
day.
The season officially opened
on September l, that being the
first month with "R" since last
season closed, although oyster
men scott at this and declare
oysters may be safely eaten at
any time of the year.
Only longing of oysters is al
lowed at this time of year, and
the bivalves will be comparatively
scarce until the dredging season
opens on November /.
The first oyster boat from Girls
field, Md, which is the oystering
center Of Chesapeake Bay, arrived
at the local wharf yesterday and
the cargo was quickly disposed of.
In the height of the season
Washington purchases about g.
900 bushels of oysters a week.

ARREST NEARS
IN SABOTAGE

Arrest soon Of a person believed
to have tempered with the new
electric wiring system in Bancroft
Hall at Annapolis, Sunday was
limited today by Department Of
Justice agents and U. S. marshals.
More than so circuit wires in the
new system at the Naval Academy
residential barracks were discov.
cred cut when Murray c. Ricketts,,
Washington contractor in charge
of the installation made an inspec-
ton. If the current had been
turned on before the sabotage was
discovered, the building would
have burned, it was said.
Ricketts,, reporting to Rear
Admiral William H. STANDBY, de-
clared a trade union man was
suspected, since he had declined
to meet certain union demands
on the job.
Eighty Of the men on the job
are working open shop, he said,
at union wages but on a 48-hour
week instead of the 40-hour week
demanded by the Electrical Work
ers Local Of Baltimore. Reason
for the eight-hour stretchout,
Ricketts, explained, was because
the work must be completed by
September %. when the midShip-
men report.

PUNISHMENT
BANNED FOR

Corporal punishment at the Alex.
andria Children's Home and Day
nursery will be barred in the fu
ture, 1t was announced today by
the board of managers of that in.
stitution.
Terming the publicity recently
given to the whipping of two boys
az that institution as "unfortu-
nate," the board Of managers is.
sued the following statement:
THE Rotary Club Of AIexan-
dria, actuated by the highest
motives, HIS for many years
made the home its special prof
ect. Through the generosity Of
this organization the care Of
many underprivileged children
has been made possible. The
board OF managers have, to the
best Of their ability and with no
motive other than sincere in
terest in the children, given un"
limited time and effort toward
making the home a secure and
happy place in which these
young people may develop into
useful citizens. 1t was, there
fore, with deep regret that the
greatly exaggerated account Of
the punishment to two children
was read by those responsible
for their welfare.
"The board of managers can
not express strongly enough
how harmful such reports are
and wish they had been given
an opportunity to investigate
the facts before such damaging
publicity was given the case.
Three members of the board, &C
cOmpanied by a physician, went
to the home the day following
the whipping and found the chill
dren under discussions had just
returned from the movies in ex-
cellent spirits and health. Ex-
aminatiOns showed no evidence
that the children had been
cruelty whipped. The statement
that they were "beaten with a
heavy wooden coat hanger" was
incorrect.
"The house mother, Miss
Agnes Bowler, said she had re-
ceived q complaint that the chill
dren were treSpasSing in a near
by yard where they had been re-
peatedly warned not to go. 1t
was not the first time the boys
who were punished had COM
mitted this Offense, and they di-
rectly disObeyed instructions. It
is extremely hard to control IS
children without occasionally
resOrting to punishment. AS
corporal punishment seems mad
viSable, however, it will be def
nitely discontinued in the Chill
dren's home in the future"
The publicity referred to in the
statement was that given the case
following arraignment of Miss
Bowler in civil and police court
Saturday on complaint made by
o man who was preparing to adopt
one of the children.
Acting Judge Harry F. Kennedy
found Miss Bowler guilty of minor
assault after learning that she
used a wire coat hanger to whip
the children, and suspended impo-
Sition of any sentence. The father
Of one Of the children that was
whipped refused to take any action
and added that the boy should be
whipped if he would not obey
Miss Bowler.
