The japanese also announced they
had broken the boom across the
Yangtze at Kiangyin and that battle
ships were steaming upstream to bonn
bard Chinkiang.
japanese planes, meanwhile. were
reported making heavy attacks on an
allegedly bewildered Chinese retreat
both from Marking and Wuhu.
Chinese sources reported the 32.720-
ton japanese battleship Nagato sunk
by aerial bombs on the lower Yangtze
between Tungchow and Fushan. Jap
anese discounted the report.
A japanese Embassy spokesman ac-
knoWledged that British consular au-
thorities had made a telegraphic re-
port on the bombing of British war
ship and two British merchantmen
yesterday at Wuhu.
He said. however. no question of a
British protest or of demands for COM
pensation had arisen. The spokes-
man added that japanese authorities
had no statement to make about the
incident
Prepare for Swift Attack.
Japan's air force spread its wings
over broad area of the Central China
front, apparently in preparation for
swift attack on Marking.
The commander of the British gum
boat Ladybird and two other Britons
were injured when japanese planes
raided the Wuhu water front yester-
day.
Two British river steamers were hit.
The 3,770-ton Tuck-Wo, belonging to
the Irdo-China Steam Navigation Co.,
was set af1ame and was believed to be
total loss.
Officials of the company said they
understood the Tuck-Wo had between
1000 and 5000 Chinese refugees
aboard. She rammed into a British
owned landing hulk, which also
burned. Total damage was estimated
as about s5O0,00O.

DR.. SMITH ASSA|LS
0USTER'S SECRECY
Replies to ''UnofficiaI Ex-
plantations" of Loss of
Training School Post,

Replying to what she termed nu-
merous unofficial explanations" of
her recent summary dismissal as su-
perintendent of the National Training
School for Girls, DR.. Carrie Weaver
Smith today denounced the secrecy
surrounding the discharge and the
refusal of the Board of Public We'll
1are to grant her hearing.
One of the reasons which, she said.
officials have passed out "confidenti-
ally is that she obtained her ap-
polntment as result of pressure ex-
erted on the Board of Public Welfare
by Miss Katherine Lenroot. chief of
the Children's Bureau of the Labor
Department.
L gratefully admit that Miss Len
root and myself have been friends for
years" Dr. Smith said. However, the
pressure exerted in my behalf was
her response to request from Welfare
Director Elwood Street to suggest
some one to take over the political
plum known as the National Training
School for Girls, which carried a net
salary of $4,000 This lucrative
slnecure had been offered to District
residents who refused to touch it with
a l0-foot pole
Says Appointment Approved.
Answering another off f-the-record"
reason which she has heard that she
appointed her sister as housekeeper at
the school and attempted to keep her
presence a secret, DR.. Smith declared
the appointment was approved by Mr..
Street
She said she was willing to admit
that discipline at the school was bad"
but she emphasized that she had asked
for thorough inquiry and that the
request was ignored
DR.. Smith said she didn't think the
Board of Public Welfare would listen
to rumors about conditions at the
school without a frank discussion
with me of their merits before draw
ing unwarranted conclusions
I marvel now at my own naive con-
fdence," she added
Tells of Plans.
The former superintendent said she
was well on the way toward putting
into effect program of educational
instruction in social hygiene, normal
boy and girl relationships, wholesome
recreation and psychiatric treatment
when her administration was suddenly
ended
Another charge which DR. Smith
said she has heard is that she once
offended Judge Bentley of the Juvenile
Court. She said this probably grew
out of an incident in which she once
protested ''too vigorously to a clerk at
the Juvenile Court over the judges
decision to return to us very feeble
minded girl, who should have been
sent to the District Training School
for the Feeble Minded"

LECTURE TOPIC

Universal commentator of
public service will surely eXalt
it. while just as surely will con-
demnation debase it. This is
clearly proved in our country's
attitude toward the Presidency"
Judge Samuel w. Greene, of Chi
cago, stated in a lecture on
Christian Science" the Govern
ment by Divine Law at Consti-
tuition Hall yesterday.
Introducedby Mrs. Corinne D.
Dunmore, Judge Greene spoke
under the auspices of the First,
Second, Third and Fourt h
Churches of Christ, Scientist, of
the District. He said in part:
"As our human consciousness
retains less of the material and
more OF the spiritual, we shall
approach a better understand
ing Of government and our re-
lation to it. With the leavening
process that is existent in hui
man consciousness today, we
may confidently hope for better
ideals of government"
Referring to the office of the
Presidency, he stated:
"Such ideals of honesty, char
acter, ability and unselfishness
have been generally held of this
office, that in our history of $50
years, there has hardly been
serious consideration of an I'M
worthy man for that office"

CUPID MOVES
TO ALEXANDRIA

ALEXANDRIA, Va, Oct. 4.
The three-day waiting law recently
put into effect in the District of
Columbia for those wishing mar
riage licenses has more than dou-
bled the usual number of licenses
issued here, Elliott F. Hoffman,
clerk of the corporation court, said
today.
With only IS licenses issued in
August, Mr.. Hoffman reported
that September accounted for 161
licenses, despite the fact that
Washingtonians had II days in
September to get their licenses be-
fore the three-day waiting require.
ment was put into effect on Sep
TENDER II.
Most of the licenses, Mr.. Hoff-
man added, we're issued to resi-
dents of Washington. October, the
clerk prophesied, will show an even
larger increase, since the District
marriage requirement will be in
effect for the full month.
