Tells Trial Board "TiCket-
Fixing" Charges Resulted
From DISCRIMINATION"

Teunis F. Collier, Georgetown con-
tractor and volunteer law enforce
ment crusader, yesterday told the Po-
lice Trial Board, which is hearing
''ticket- fixing" charges against Po-
liceman Wexford Winfield, that alleged
police discrimination against him led
him to investigate Winfield and re-
port him to his superiors.
Collier, under cross ss-examination
which lasted for more than two hours,
said he had not the slightest bias
against Winfield personally, and had
no wish to see the officer convicted.
The prosecution witness, however
was certain he had suffered much at
the hands of police. He said for
months he tried to make officers en-
force no-parking bans near dan
gerous corner not far from his home,
but the only result was that he him.

Collier said that as a result he and
his attorney, Charles Linkins, started
out to investigate law enforcement
and certain police officers. The wit
ness said he and Linkins made an
appointment to meet the policeman's
estranged wife, since deceased.
Collier said they obtained from the
wife papers later introduced in evil
dence against Winfield and purporting
to show he had fixed tickets.
Collier and the attorney also oh
tained signed statement from Mis-
Jessie j. Ball, a former roomer ir

THREE LIFE-RULES
By JOSEPH FORT NEWTON

Copyright. 1887 by United Feature Syndicate. Inc

AS a Young man the late John ID. Rookie
feller heard a sermon in which he learned
three Gfc-rulcs BY those rules his life was
guided through the years that followed.
The sermon had three points. Rule one:
Get all the money you can Rule two: Save
all the money YOU can. Rule three: Give all
the money YOU can. Three simple and plain
rules
Let us hope the preacher said get hon
cstlv, save scnsibly. give wisely. Anyway, the
Young man took those rules as his motto for
life. and lived up to them to the very letter.
AS a result he got much money, more
than a billion dollars. He did not earn 1t.
He did not make it. He amaSScd 1t, fairly
or otherwise. by the rules of the game III
his day.
What he got ne saved carefully ly-madc
millions and saved pennies. until. toward the
end. he became a quaint, half-comlc hGurc
giving new dimes to the boys on his birth
day
Much of what ne got and saved he gave
back to his fellows. He gave wisely and
richly. LAYING vast foundations for the health.
education and welfare of his fellow man.
Many men obey the first two rules and
forget the third. But Rockefeller, with SIM
pie dirccncss of mind, followed through,
Obeving the last rule as faithfully as the first.
1t was an amazing career, in which Il man
achieved the unparalleled feat of gathering
and giving a billion dollars. He lived to hear
his name, once cXccrated, honorcd among
men.
One wonders if Rockefeller ever knew
whose rules ne was obcyin9. They were the
lifc-rulcS of John Wesley, the greatest splr-
itual force known in the history of England.
Only. when Wesley died he left a few
books, some silver Spoons and four pounds
to pay four poor men to carry his body to
the grave. The two lives were different,
obcying the same rules.
