MD. DRYS LEAD
NEW BATTLE

ANNAPOLIS, Nd, Feb. 18.
The ghost of prohibition stalked
through the halls of the Maryland
General yesterday as representa-
tives Of the Anti-Saloon League
and organized liquor dealers
squared away for a bitter fight.
The center of interest is the
fight of the saloonkeepers of Bal.
timore to force retailers of beer
and wines to pay the same license
fees as those paid by saloons.
There are bills to establish this
scale of licenses in both House
and Senate.
Grunbling against what was
termed the arrogance of the
liquor dealers were heard. One
powerful member of the Senate.
who would not allow his name
to be used, planned to offer a
Statewide prohibition bill.
The Anti-Saloon League wheeled
into action behind the leadership
of DR.. George w. Crabbe, Mary
lands dry generalissimo.
DR.. Crabbe fathered bill which
was later introduced by Walter M.
Magruder, Fusion, Montgomery
county, that would permit any
locality in the State to hold a
referendum on the dry question
on a petition signed by IS per
cent of the registered voters of the
locality.

PUGH MAY ASK
FIRST TRIAL OF
REED, AIDES

ROCKVILLE, Md, Feb. ,19.
Despite earlier rumors that Will
liam B. Reed and his two COM
panions will be arraigned for trial
in West Virginia on a murder
charge before here, the matter is
still in doubt, States Attorney
James H. Pugh declared here last
night as he left for Charleston,
w. Va, to confer with West Vir-
ginia authorities on the case.
Reed, and his two companions,
Lawrence Gingell, of Kensington,
Md, and w. Joseph Kirby, of
Scranton, Pa, are now in custody
at Charleston, w. Va, in connec-
tion with the murder of William
Dollman, Philadelphia, Pa, sales
man, near Sutton, w. Va, on
Thanksgiving Day, and in connec-
tion with the Staying of Elwood
Matthews, 67-year-old Four Cor.
ners, Md, farmer, near Burnt
Mills, Md, on November 81.
Tentative Plan
Although it has been tentatively
decided that the trio will face
trial first for the Dollman Staying,
Pugh declared Just before entrain
ing for Charleston, that "this will
be thrashed out during the com
ing conference"
Kirby was captured during y
gun battle near Montgomery, w
Va, shortly after the Dollman
Staying.
Gingell was captured on Four
teenth Street Bridge by a Wash
ington policeman while allegedly
attempting to join Reed, named
as the ringleader and triggerman
of the gang.
Reed was captured at Ruston
La, during an attempted filling
station holdup about three weeks
ago, and was only eXtradited last
week by both Montgomery county
and West Virginia authorities. He
is now lodged in the jail at
Charleston, Pugh said.
Kidnap Charge
In addition to the Dollman and
Matthews murders, the trio are
charged by the Department OF
Justice with the kidnapping Of a
colored Washington taxicab driver
ana with violation of the Dyer
act. Although no definite charges
have been launched against them
according to local police, they are
wanted for questioning in connec
tton with robberieS and other
crimes in Maryland, Virginia
West Virginia and the District OF
Columbia.

JORDAN GETS
CHAIR STAY

Thomas Jordan, 33-year-old for
mer bus boy, scheduled to die in
the electric chair at the District
Jail tomorrow for the murder five
years ago of Mrs. Elizabeth
Jaynes, 54-year-old cashier Of the
Garden T-shoppe, during hold
up, was granted a months stay Of
execution today in United States
District Court.
Mrs. Jaynes was killed when
one of two robbers who entered
the tea shop, became frightened
and fired his pistol. The robbers
fled and made their escape in a
waiting automobile driven by a
young woman. Jordan had once
been employed at the cafe and,
although he was caught in the po-
lice roundup that took place dur
ing the investigation of the rob-
bery-murder, he was not immedl-
ately charged and was released
after few hours. A year ago,
after his conscience drove him to
it, he wrote a letter to United
States Attorney Leslie c. Garnett
which aroused the latter's sus-
picion and caused them to prompt
another investigation which re-
suited in Jordans confession and
trial.
The stay of execution was
granted to enable the Department
of Justice to make disposition Of
an application for Executive clem-
ency, which has already been
filed.

NEW HIGH SET
INCARE0FD.C
CHILDREN

Reporting on a record-breaking
number of dependent children
cared for during the month of
January by the Child Welfare Di,
vision of the Board of Public Wei
fare, Miss A. Patricia MorSs. chief
of the division, today revealed
what has happened to a number
of the families in the employable
class who were cut off the relief
rolls a year ago.
Out of the boards appropria.
ton, Miss Morss reported 977
children we're cared for during the
month of January in foster homes
the highest number in the his,
tory of the division. Miss Morss
stated:
"The new high mark of 977
children provided for out of the
board and care appropriation is
due, not to increase in number
of children committed by the
Juvenile Court, but to a slow
discharge rate due to the lack
of personnel sufficient to handle
quickly the heavy load"
She reported that in all, the
number of children cared for was
1,018, but this total also included
children who were cared for ir
free foster homes. Regarding the
families of persons in the employ
able class formerly carried on re
lief, Miss Morss said:
Gan unusual number Of the
dependent children remain in
the child welfare division over
a long period Of time. In ex-
amining the cause Of this, it
was found that in many In
stances the home had become
disOrganized during the period
Of widespread unemployment;
that while the father is en-
plOyed on a WPA project the
wage is not sufficient to allow
for the reeStablishment of the
home. The prevailing wage is
no more than $45 month. The
public assistance division, due
to Congressional limitations of
funds for relief is unable to give
any relief to any emplOyable
persons and so is not able to
supplement the income of such
parents in order to get the re.
organized home under way"

HILL ATTENDS
CLUB MEETING

There was an unscheduled meet
ing of members of the Arlington
Kiwanis Club yesterday at % East
Woodbine Street, Chevy Chase,
Md.
And Edwin F. Hill of the District
Kiwanis Club, one-time governor
of the capital district and the best
known arranger of dinner and
luncheon speeches at Kiwanis
gatherings in three States, still has
a perfect weekly attendance record.
Those are the surface facts. But
the story goes deeper than that.
It was this way:
ed" Hill, an official of the C.
& p. Telephone Company in Wash
ington, missed the weekly luncheon
OF his own club in Washington
last Thursday for the first time
in nine and one half years. He was
i'll at his Chevy Chase home.
At that point "the boys" got to
figuring. They remembered a
rule that if you attend a meeting
somewhere else within a week it
counts as a credit, just as if you
met with your own crowd. So it
was that when the Arlington club
met yesterday, it proceeded after
luncheon to the Hill home. There,
after salaamS and salutations, Mr..
Hill was officially declared to have
attended a weekly meeting of a
KiwaniS club, and the meeting was
thereupon adjourned finally for
the week.
It was the Kiwanians' tribute to
their hardest-working and most
loyal member.

RIDER STIRS
HOT DEBATE
IN HOUSE

Subjected to a torrent Of criti-
cism in both the House and Sen
ate yesterday, the Red Rider" re-
peal bill was in a ticklish parlia-
mentary spot before the House to-
day.
Representative Mary T. Norton
CD, of New Jersey, chairman Of
the House District Committee, was
considering steps to be taken to
clear the path for progress Of the
bill.
The bill found its way into the
jam late yesterday when Mrs. Nor
ton ran into difficulties in seeking,
first, to have the House finally dis
pose of the measure, and then
trying to send it to conference.
She was blocked in both moves.
Amended House Bill
Earlier in the day the Senate,
after heated discussions, which
drew even Majority Leader Joseph
T. Robinson into the fight,
amended the House bill so as to
provide for complete repeal OF the
rider.
When Mrs. Norton, about Sis
D. M, moved that the House
concur in the Senate action, Rep
resentative John Mccormack
CD, of Massachusetts,, advocate
of the amended rider, said:
81 feel that this is an inap-
prOpriate time to take the
matter up-the hour is so late
and many of the members are In
their offices working. The lady'S
motion would entail some action.
1 should be compelled to object
unless this matter is deferred
until at least tomorrow"
ASKS FOR CONFERENCE
Mrs. Norton, who is known to
be strongly in favor of the COM
plete repeal measure passed by the
Senate and who would, by reason
of her District Committee chair
manship, normally be named as
head of the House conferees if the
bill were sent to conference, then
moved that the House disagree
with the Senate proposition and
ask for a conference with the
Senate.
Representative John Taber (R)
Of New York, opponent of COM
plete repeal, the struck on the
basis for the comments Of Mr..
Mccormack. The New Yorker
read to the House newspaper ar
ticle allegedly quoting Mrs. Nor
ton as saying that she and Repre-
sentatives Ambrose Kennedy CD
Of Maryland and Everett DirkSen
(RO of Illinois, all Of whom favor
complete repeal, would be ap-
pointed as House managers if the
bill were sent to conference. 1t
further quoted Mrs. Norton as
strongly indicating that if the
bill were sent to conference with
those three as House managers,
they probably would yield to the
Senate apparently without any
struggle.
Mrs. Norton denied that she re-
called any such interview that
would substantiate the newspaper
article.
The District Committee chair
man may renew her request for
unanimous consent to concur in
the Senate action today. If that
fails she will renew her unanimous
consent request to disagree with
the Senate action and send the bill
to conference.
In either case, there is no doubt
that Mr.. Taber will take. up his
questioning of the New Jersey
member, and that might lead to
the appointment of House con-
ferees other than those which the
newspaper article quoted Mrs. Nor
ton as saying would be named.

WELLES WARNS
u. S. TO PROTECT
POWER IN WEST

GIN. S.. Undersecretary of
State Sumner Welles today bluntly
warned foreign powers that any
encroachment in the western
hemisphere will be met with force
b. the United States.
In q renunciation Of the Mon.
roe doctrine. Welles declared:
"Any attempt on the part Of
non-American powers to exert
through force, their political or
material influence on the Amer
ican continent would be imme-
diately a matter of the gravest
concern, not only to the United
States but to every other
American republic as well and
appropriate action undoubtedly
would at once be determined
upon as the result of common
consultation between them"
JOINT ACTION
In his pronouncement, welles
enlarged upon the doctrine by in
GLIDING the Latin-American re-
publics on basis of Joint action.
This was one of the major agree
ments entered into at the Inter.
American Conference for the
Maintenance Of Peace, held at
Buenos Aires last December.
Welles spoke before the Pan
American forum Of George Wash
ington University last night.
DEMOCRACY TO STAY
He disclosed that Fascist powers
have been making considerable
irroads in South America through
the use Of propaganda. This gov
ernment, he said, does not under
estimate the extent to which prop
aganda of type alien to our Wes-
tern civilization has been spread
on our continent during the past
years."
He predicted that the Demo
cratic form in the Americas
will remain unimpaired by the
fantasies which suffering peoples
in other parts of the world have
devised as panaceas for their
own monetary ills and by the
propaganda which emanates
from them"

AID BELIEVED FOUND
Drug Came to Public Notice First

Presidents Son,

An aid to the present pneumonia
serum cure is believed to have been
discovered in new drug which first

Franklin D. Roosevelt, jr., last Win
ter. according to George Washington
University physicians, who have been
conducting tests at Gallinger Hos
pital during recent months.
About 80 tests have been made on
patients OF all ages, the doctors ex-
planned. They are convinced that the
drug - sulphanilamide - cannot take
the place Of the anti-pneumonia serum
now used, but believe it will assist
greatly in curing victims OF the dis
ease.
The real value Of the drug, one
doctor said. will not be known until
so or 10 more experiments have been
conducted. 1t takes about 100 cases
to tell the worth of An experiment
involving pneumonia, he added.
The cost of the present serum treat
ment amounts to about $50 \ case. It
was estimated that cost Of .sulphanila- =
mide would amount to only 81 or So
In the treatment of each case.
The George Washington University
physicians began their experiments
with humans after tests conducted
at the National Institute OF Health

moccus infections in animals, it was
said.
