MARRIAGE TRAINING
COURSES ARE URGED
Increasing Divorce Rate Smashes
Old Fallacy, Education Di- Z
rector Asserts.

The old assumption that marriage
alone can make success of a home
has been proven a fallacy by the
increasing divorce rate, Willard w.
Beatty, director of education of the
United States Indian Office, declared
last night in urging establishment Of
suitable courses in marriage training
in the schools.
Mr.. Beatty was speaker at dinner
at Barker Hall that brought to a
close the two-day Parent Teacher In
stitute sponsored jointly by the George
Washington University and the Dis
trict Congress Of Parents and Teach
ers at the university.
The three major areas in which
youth needs marriage guidance are
economic, psychological and physio-
logical fields, according to Mr.. Beatty.
No school need dodge the issue because
of lack of material, he added, because
the Progressive Education Association
has had commission at work for the
last two years preparing that.
Yesterday afternoon the mothers
and teachers heard Miss Ellen Lom-
bard of the Federal Office of Education
on the joint responsibility of the home
and school In childhood education.

POLICE RECAPTURE
YOUNG FUG|TVES
Escaped Receiving Home
Inmates Are Found in
Hobo "JungIe."

1t cost police lot of wind, energy
and at least one injury this afternoon
to outsprint two youths who had
escaped several hours earlier from the
Receiving Home by dashing out
through the kitchen and upsetting a
colored cook occupied with her pots
and pans.
The light-footed ugitives-Joseph
Lsenberg, 16, of the 1900 block of
Eleventh street Sc, and Milton C.
Gussman, IA, of Asheville, N. Y
were spotted in hobo jungle" Just
of the freight yards at Eleventh and
M streets Sc. by Policeman r. P.
Pitkins of No precinct.
Offlcer Pitkins, having heard that
the boys had galloped through the
kitchen Of the Receiving Home, vaulted
a 5-foot board fence at the rear, and
outrun the guards, figured he needed
help to capture the pair. He tele-
phoned his precinct for reinforce
ments.
Half dozen officers responded.
They closed in on the Jungle" aware
they might have brisk foot race once
the. boys learned of their presence.
When the youngsters spotted the blue
coats, they set off across the railroad
tracks at lively pace.
All Are Caught.
Policeman E. j. Fitzgerald was
travelling fast when he slipped on the
rails, cutting and bruising his shins,
knees and hands SO badly he had to
be treated at Providence Hospital. The
officers, however, came of victorious.
They overlook the boys and returned
them to the Receiving Home.
G. H. Leonard, superintendent Of
the home, said that Isenberg, Guss-
man and another boy apparently had
planned the escape this morning, act
ing in concert as the other children
were being seated in the dining room
for breakfast.
Guards at the home were able to
overtake the third fugitive, who was
younger and less agile than Gussman
and Lenberg.
The Juvenile Court is planning to
send Gussman, an orphan, back to
New York. He was picked up here by
members of the automobile squad in
connection with the theft of car.
1senberg, suspected in several house
breakings. was arrested Monday
shortly after he escaped from the In
dustrial Home School on Wisconsin
avenue NV, police said.
Home Overcrowded.
Mr.. Leonard said that overcrowding
at the home made it difficult to keep
the inmates under adequate supervi-
sion. There are So beds for inmates
in the old building rented by the Dis
trict. This morning there were So
children in the home, about an aver
age number.
For years Mr. Leonard and other
District officials have been seeking an
appropriation from Congress for an
adequate building to serve as a re-
ceiving home for juveniles. Their re-
quest for 100000 appropriation has
been turned down several times.
Meanwhile, overcrowding makes it
difficult for officials to separate the
delinquents from those unfortunates
who may be lost. destitute of a suit
able home or otherwise in need CT
temporary accommodation and super
vision.
The escapes today, according u
police, are only two Of many which
occur at the home from time to time
Little can be done about the situation,
officials say, until better facilities are
provided.

HARLAN PERJURY .
TRIAL SET NOV. z
Attack on Indictment of Ted
CreeCh Fails in District
Court.

: BACKGROUND
{ Senate Ciuh Liberties Committee
) began its investigation OF alleged
/. reign OF terror in bloody" Har-
Ian County, KY, one OF tUorld's
richest sott-coal fields, during last
session OF Congress. Dozens OF
/ witnesses recited incidents OF
shootings, beatings and other al
! legged terroristic activities by dep
. uty sflerifs and private police OF
/ mine operators. Spokesman TOR
'' operators denied the charges.
!. An attack on the indictment charg-
ing Ted Creech, 35-year-old son of a
Harlan County (Ky.) mine owner with
committing perjury last April is be-
fore the Senate Civil Liberties Com
mittee, failed in District Court today
and the case was set for trial Novem-
Der %.
- In a memorandum opinion, Justice
Joseph W. Cox overruled demurrer
by Creech's attorneys to the true bill.
The principal argument which had
been put forward by William E. Leahy,
chief counsel for the husky coal mine
superintendent, was that the Senate
investigation of violence and labor
intimidation in Harlan County was
beyond its authority under the Con-
stitution.
~ MIR. Leahy contended the inquiry
had no possible relation to prospective
legislation.
Investigation Held Proper.
S Justice Cox, in his opinion, adopted
the position taken by Chief Assistant
United States Attorney David A. Pine
that the investigation was proper and
that its subject matter could be the
basis of constitutional legislation.
The charge against Creech is based
on testimony he gave before the COM
amittee concerning conversation ht
had with Richard c. Tackett, another
witness, during the noon recess.
Two days before Tackett had ad-
.mitted on the witness stand that ht
and others were employed by an as
,sociation of coal mine operators ir
Harlan County to intimidate United
Mine Workers of America members
and to violate the rights of employees
Testimony False, Is Charge.
= On April 16 Creech allegedly tolo
the committee concerning Tackett's
testimony:
/, He came up and told me he came
up here and got drunk and made 6
statement here and did not know JUS
what he was talking about when ht
made that statement"
This testimony by Creech, the in.
dictment alleges, is false.
In answer to an argument By
Ieahy that Creech's testimony wa.
immaterial and hence not perjury
Justice Cox said: From the fact.
alleged, it would seem clear that thu
statement was a direct attack upor
the credibility and trustworthiness O.
material testimony previously giver
by Tackett."
