M New York City, November
V s.-Capt. Pierre CIave. one
1 4 of the truly great horsemen
Of the world today, won the $1,000
international individual military jump
ing stake for the French Republic here
last night in unquestionably the most
thrilling competition seen In the Ma
tional Horse Show in decade. Riding
the big brown gelding Volant III, Capt.
Clave edged out the United States
Armys Ansonia, Lieut.. J. o. Curtis
up, in . tump-oi over q course that
in the final rounds resembled the Great
Wall Of China.
1t was the second year in succession
that Capt. Clave has accounted for
this stake. and his victory last eve
ming gave the French q clean sweep
of the important military events to
date. The squad as q whole won the
three-day team jumping, which ended
Friday night, and Capt. Clave and
Ammidon took the Bowman Challenge
Cup for international army horses on
Saturday. The triumph in the stake
left the French undisputed champions
among the seven nations competing
here, and further established Capt.
Claves reputation on American shores.
Fourteen horses in two-score were
able to get over the original course,
but only two survived the first jump
on. Both Ansonia and Volant were
clean that time, and when they came
out TO settle the issue, the crowd OF
$4,000, the largest OF the meeting, was
whipped UP into . fine frenzy Of mixed
patriotism and admiration for the
great Gallo horseman. Ansonia went
first in the final test. and hit the sew
enth and eleventh fences hard enough
to knock them down. Capt. Clave
had . knockdown even earlier in his
round, rapping the fourth barrier q
solid clout, but after that he set Volant
magnificent at every fence and put
the booty in the bag.

BILL ASKS $3,0O0,OOO
TO HONOR JEFFERSON
Memorial Commission Introduces
Measure-Type of Structure
Not Determined.

The Thomas Jefferson Memorial
Commission, which is charged with the
duty of selecting site and suitable
memorial to Jefferson, believes the
project will cost about s3.OO0,000.
Representative Boylan, Democrat. Of
New York, chairman of the commits
sion, disclosed the probable cost yes
terday when he introduced a bill to
authorize the construction Of a me-
mortal not in excess of that amount.
The commission was created at the
last session of Congress, and is COM
posed chiefly of members of the Senate
and House. According to Boylan. 1t
has not yet selected a site for the
memorial or the form it should take.
Only one thing is definite-it will be
erected in Washington.
Boylan explained number of sites
and types of memorials had been sug-
gested. The sites are in the vicinity
of the Tidal Basin, in Southwest WASH
ington on the projected axis Of the
Archives Building, and at the end of
East Capitol street. The memorials
proposed range all the way from
public building with large auditorium
for public use, to huge stadium.
Boylan said before the commission
acts on any plan, it will await the
recommendations of architects now
engaged in study Of the proposed
memorial.

Decision in Arn0ld-Labor
Controversy Due Within Month
Relations Board Inquiry Closes After
Coach Company Head Denies Eo,O
Neuer to RECOGNIZE Union.

presented by Jacob Blum, regional
attorney for the National Labor Rsia-
tions Board, who had associated with
him Arthur Reyman, attorney from
the Amalgamated Association of Street,
Electric Railway and Motor Coach
Operators, and its local, No. 1919, at
the Arnold plant. The complainants
closed their case with testimony,
cross-examination and rebuttal testi-
mony. The company, through coun-
sci, William J. Hughes, jr., and Robert
E. Lynch. closed with argument.
Lynch contended there was not
sufficient testimony to show conscious,
deliberate and unfair labor practice"
to such an extent as to require action
by the National Labor Relations Board.
He attributed the dismissals to ineffi-
cheney, and increasing trouble among
personnel. He said testimony showed
the dismissals could not be attributed
to union membership, since about 40
union men still are in the employ Of
the company, while 20 were fired.
Arnold Denies Testimony.
President Arnold of the company,
in his second appearance on the
stand, yesterday fatty denied state
ments attributed to him by previous
employe testimony to the effect that
he had said he would never recognize
the union and you can put that in
your pipe and smoke it," He laughed
when he denied the testified report
that he would put his busses out on
the lot and burn them before he
would recognize the union. He ad-
mitted talking to several employees
about the question of their joining
the new union, but denied he had
ever coerced, or threatened them to

hours and inattention to their duties.
In cross-examination Blum at
tempted to show that although the
alleged ineficiencies were stretched
out over a long period Of time, the
dismissals took place within three
days early in March, shortly after
organizat ton Of the union.
Secrecy Rights Upheld.
When Blum attempted to bring up
some point about a conference March
7 between Arnold, his attorney, John
Lynch, and Bennett F. Schouffier,
regional director of the National Labor
Relations Board here, Trial Examiner
Carmody ruled the evidence not ad-
missible on the basis of secrecy"
Carmody pointed out that the board
was attempting to smooth out rela-
tions between employees and employ
ers and would continue to do so.
Conferences held by board representa-
tives in such efforts would be far more,
effective If not made public, he said.
Champ c. Joy Of Clarendon, a pas
senger on the bus line, said he had
formally complained against w. A.
Crissman, a driver, but asked that he
should not be discharged. Crissman
was put on the stand later and de-
clared he could not have been on duty
at the time indicated.

Decision by the National Labor
Relations Board in the case of the
Washington, Virginia & Maryland
Coach Co., charged with discrimi-
nation against union men, probably
will be reached in about month,
according to John M. Carmody, board
member, who presided as trial
examiner.
The hearings closed late yesterday
after four days of testimony. Dis
charged union men contended they
were fred because they had joined
the new union of employees organized
late in February. Officials of the COM
pany, headed by Leon Arnold, denied
the union was the cause for the dis
missal Of 20 out Of SO union members
Ineffciency and characterization of
various kinds were given as reasons.
The board Is empowered either to
dismiss the charges, or sustain them
and issue a cease and desist order
against the coach company. II the
company is found to have used unfair
labor practices" in dealing with the
dismissed men, the board could order
reinstatement, order the discharge
of men put on to take their place,
and the payment Of back salary to
the discharged men from the date
of their dismissal. Either side to the
controversery has the right Of appeal
to the courts.
Jam Delays Court.

has about 30 cases pending. Carmody

BORAH EXPECTED
TOF|LE IN OREGON
Idaho Veteran Decides Not
to Enter Campaign
in California.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A move by Senator Borah OF Idaho
to extend his presidential drive into
the Northwest was believed imminent
today. Friends expected him to an
nounce he would enter the Oregon
primary May IS in an effort to capture
that States 10 delegates to the Re-
publican National Convention.
The veteran Senator decided yester-
day not to enter California. He eX-
planned the intensity of his campaign
to win the l09 convention delegates to
be selected soon in Ohio and Illinois
would not permit him to speak on the
coast as friends had urged.
Another political development noted
here was an assertion by Senator
Dickinson, Republican. of Iowa, who
has expressed political aspirations,
that there was mo chance of any small
coterie" picking the partys presidential
candidate at the Cleveland convention.
II have noted reports" he said at
Chicago, that hint a small group of
party leaders is preparing to pursue at
the coming convention the policy,
which legend has it, was responsible
for the nomination of the late Presi-
dent Harding here in 1920"
Such course next Summer would
be, as the campaign is now shaping up,
as impossible as it is improbable"
The Iowan declared the uninstructed
State delegations are spontaneous in
origin" and do not involve blind
obedience" to ANY unidentified, nom
existent higher-ups."
Borah, on the other hand, has often
expressed bitter opposition to the un-
instructed or "favorite son" delega-
tions. on the ground that such sys-
tenn permits the "Old Guard" to die
ctate the choice of nominee.
With Borah withdrawn from the
California race, the REPUBLICANS there
will be given choice between Gov.
ALI M. Landon of Kansas and an un-
instructed delegation, the latter being
favored by former President Hoover.

SYLVIA, N. c., March 27.-Damage
by a rainstorm which struck Sylvia and
jackson County yesterday Is expected
to run into thousands of dollars.
The major portion of the damage
was done just east of Sylvia when the
downpour caused small streams to be-
come virtual rivers which reached into
several homes.
On Kitchens Branch, east of Sylvia,
a near panic was created among resi-
dents when 10-foot wall Of water
came swirling down out of the cove
and rose up into the homes. Don
Fisher, newspaper carrier, who lives
Just above the flooded zone, said that
when he saw the water coming, he
yelled to dwellers below to evacuate
their homes. Most Of them got out
just before the water struck. No one
was injured, but a barn belonging to
Mack Edwards was washed away and
his garage damaged beyond repair.

prevent their joining, or to get them
to withdraw. He said he has asked
the men to 'think it over" and let
him know later their decision.
On cross-examination by Blum,
Arnold told about bottle Of cham
payne he said he had given to the
men one night at the office, when his
son, Joseph Arnold, vice president Of
the company, was present. He sent
one of the men to his car for the
bottle, Leon Arnold said, and several
of the group drank it, but he didn't.
Later Theodore Frederick, discharged
foreman, testified the bottle had been
opened by Joseph Arnold and the men
had drinks all around. Joseph Arnold
previously during the day had said
the men drank from bottle Of
whisky in the Office, but he didn't
know about any champagne.
Arnold Tells Of Losses.
Arnold, discussing finances Of his
bus company, said I've taken a lick
ing over the last nine years up to
1895, when the loss has totaled from
$17O,O0O to $180,000. but in 1885 we
made a little over $4,000. I've bled
every pocket I've got to conduct that
bus business"
Arnold explained that the Independ-
ent Oil Co., of which he is president,
had lost an average of $25,000 to
$4,000 a year during 1881, 1882 and
1893. The bus company had owed
the oil company as high as $4,000
for gas and oil, he said, and now owes
about 100000.
"They are separate corporations"
he said, land we must keep their ac-
counts separate" He said he had
applied to the r. F. c. for loan to
buy new equipment for the bus line.
