learning the facts and secured this
statement from Miss Smith:
JOrdan's Police Record Unknown
when was retained on this
case, was told of the beating and
arrest. / was further told that
Jordan was a married man with a
family and that he was a waiter
at the Curtis hotel and that he had
no previous record of conviction.
later learned that l had been mis-
informed as to all of these facts.
l also prepared affidavits which
were signed by several eye witness
es and Jordan himself.
AT the time l drew the affidavit
for Jordan to sign, asked him If
he had ever been convicted Of any
crime and he told me he had not,
with the exception of being picked
up in a raid some few years ago.
ION August 4th, when went to
Court prepared to defend Jordan
and also to prepare a record Of the
history of the case to present to
the Civil Service Commission, l
was informed that there were two
commitments out for Jordan and
that he would be picked up imme-
diately and sent to the workhouse
for four or five months.
81 confronted Jordan with these
commitments and he then told me
that he had been convicted for mis-
use of funds and given a 90-day
sentence and later a 60-day SEN
tence and at both times he had
been given a fioater.
81 then realized that was up
against a bad situation. l asked
Jordan if he was willing to take a
chance on being picked up and sent
to the workhouse and he said no.
So 1 was forced to appear without
Jordan being present and the case
was dismissed.
Jordan Agrees to Settlement
Jordan further informed me
that he was not working and did
not have any money to pay his
room rent and that he was going
to leave town. l informed him of
his civil rights and told him that
he had a right to sue the officers
for damages, and after talking
with the officers we agreed on q
settlement, which was consummat-
ed in my office with all parties con-
cerned present.
Officers to Be Moved
1.-TWO days later l made an ap-
pearance before Captain James
Mullen and related to him all the
facts and circumstances of the case
and also presented the affidavits
which I had in my possession. The
matter was later taken up with
Chief Forestal who agreed to re-
move the officers. l have definite
assurance that the officers will be
removed on the 18th of this
month"

Lesson for August Is
GOD GIVES LAWS TO A
NATION.

Lord thy God with all thy he@ct, and
with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. :.
Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thy self.
Matt. 22:37 80.
PRIMARY ToPIc-God's Good Laws.
JUNIOR TOPIc-Before the Mount Of
God.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR
TOPIC-Why a Nation Needs Laws.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT
TOPIC-Basic Laws for a Nations Life.
Basic laws have been laid down
by God for the orderly administra-
ton of his universe. Men see them
clearly in the physical universe. al
though at times they do not recog-
nize the One who created all things.
Physical laws are Of great i'm
portance, but of even deeper signi-
fcance are the moral and spiritual
laws which control the human life.
There is in the world a moral law
a distinction between right n d
wrong-which man may ignore only
to his own sorrow, and which he
cannot abrogate or destroy. All laws
of men which are true and right are
founded on this underlying moral
law. and are in reality simply a
development and Interpretation Of
Gods Code of Morals"-the Ten
Commandments.
These commandments given to
Israel at Mt. Sinai are worthy Of
careful study on the part Of every
reader. They may be grouped
under two divisions.
1. A True View of God wv. lid.
The first and most important
question to be asked regarding any
law is, by whom was it estab-
Hshed?" Legislation by an un-
authorized person or organization
has no power over others. Who gave
the ten commandments? Verse l
tells us God spake all these
words"
Men sneer at theology as being
out NODDED, but the fact Is that
Christian doctrine is the only safe
foundation for Christian character.
Unless my view Of God is right, my
life will be wrong. Until know him
/ will not appreciate the authority
of his law.
1. Whom to worship wv. 2-5.
There can be but one true God, and
he alone is to be worshiped. He is
a personal being, ready to enter
into communion with each one OF
US. No image or likeness can take
his place. Bowling down before idols,
no matter what they may be called,
is expressly forbidden by God.
2. How to worship wv. 6, ID. We
are to love him and keep his com
mandments. There is to be no sham
about this, for no matter how sweet
and piouS may be the praise and
prayer Of man, he has taken the
Lords name in vain unless he keeps
the Lords commandments by holy
living.
3. When to worship wv. Bid,
God has ordained that man should
not necessarily bear the burden Of
toll He is to have a day Of rest
and a time for worhip, undisturbec
by the duties and responsibilities

getting along too awfully well In re-
cent months. Truth to tell, some OF
tho names they have called each other
would hardly have been able to get
into print few years ago. Yester-
day, however, they had their little
moment Of understanding. It turned
out to be the high light Of q session
that was considerably more attractive
than the first day
There was much talk yesterday
and 1t may lead to action later-of
how the theater might recognize
modern science with respect to COM
Portable chairs, air cooling, audibility
of plays and number OF other items
on which the motion pictures have
capitalized. There were words, too,
and pointed ones, about what the
theater is going to do for actors
If it cannot find way really to COM
pete with Hollywood in respect to
giving promising talent chance to
make decent living. And, with direct
applicability to Washington, there was
brought up the important matter of
better plays for the road at prices
more commensurate with those Of the
big competing medium, the movies.
X X
TODAY'S program is going to have
- strong Washington flavor. At
the session devoted to the university,
Summer and amateur theaters, WASH
ingtonians are going to be fairly
rampant on the program. Day Tut
tie and Richard Skinner, director
and business manager Of the Wash
ington Civic Theater, will contribute
to the symposium. So will Rev. Father
Urban Nagle, Catholic University, who
will talk on The Catholic Theater."
Rita Swan of the Vagabond Players
Of Baltimore is another speaker at
the same session.
Getting down to fundamentals, for
gotten ones so often, John Anderson,
critic Of the New York Evening
Journal, played the role of spearhead
IN the critics counter-attack yester-
day. The justification for criticism,
he said, is to be found in the fact
that the theater is the only commodity
advertised in newspapers which the
customer buys sight unseen. As a
service to the theater's patron, who
happens also to be its own reader, the
newspaper assumes praiseworthy re-
sponsibility in reporting on the merits
OF this or that offering, Mr.. Anderson
said
Anderson was extremely deft about
what he had to say. So, too, were
Burns Mantle, of the Daily News, and
Joseph Wood Krutch on the Nation,
the other two critics who spoke. What
each of them had to say indicated
quite definitely that there was small
chance for the radical proposal of
Brock Pemberton at Mondays session.
It was Pemberton's idea, and a start
ling one, that when a producer did
not want a review OF his show he
should be able to arrange with pub
Isner's to call off their critics.
The concensus seemed to be that
Pemberton's thought on the subject,
like some OF his recent plays, was
destined not to get very far.

ought to be made In the theater's way
Of doing things.
In connection with the technician's
attitude toward actors. there was one
development Of the day that ought
to make a grand movie sequence, II
Hollywood is listening. In the course
of his 10-minute talk on actors and
their work, Kenneth McKenna refused
to have anything to do with the public
address system set up in the Astor
ball room. With the fine scorn of an
actor who knows his voice, he pushed
it aside.
Blanche Yrurka, the next speaker,
thought to do likewise. Louder"
shouted several persons in the back
Of the room before she had finished
two sentences. Still Miss Yrurka
scorned to use the public address sys-
tenn. a mechanical contraption un-
worthy Of an artist. She spoke
louder, but still not loudly enough.
Like a nice lady, however, she merely
smiled sweetly when an electrician IN
overalls came over and pushed the
microphone in her face. And he did
it with a gesture which said you use
it and like it. see" She used it and
the audience liked it.
