Attacked by a mysterious as

at 3446 Connecticut Ave. N. W.,
Mrs. Helen Briley was recovering
today.
All she could tell detectives was
that, while sitting on a bench in
the yard, she was struck on the
head.
Lee McCloud, colored janitor at
the apartment, said he heard Mrs.
Briley screaming and found her
in the hall bleeding from a cut
on her head.
DR.. Samuel Diener, 1904 Con-

her, said she had escaped a skull

might have been struck by some

the apartment, but a careful
search failed to reveal anything
in the vicinity of the bench.

|SUFFRAGEFIGHT
TO BE PUSHED
BY RANDOLPH
Aid Is Pledged DC.
In Next Session
By JULIA BONWIT

A new fight in the next Congress
for suffrage in the District of Co
lumbia was pledged today by Rep
repertative Jennings Randolph
CD of West Virginia.
Before leaving the Capital, Rep
resentative Randolph announced
he will reintroduce his suffrage
resolution when Congress recon-
venes next January.
I'VE made definite progress
this year." he stated. land I
believe we will be able to OBJ
tain action next year."
Mr.. Randolph was author Of q
resolution during this past session
to amend the Constitution, grant.
ing District residents the right to
participate in national elections,
to elect members of the Senate
and House from the District, and
also to establish a republican"
form Of government in the Ma
tional Capital.
PROGRESS SEEN
Representative Hatton w. Sum-
ners CD Of Texas, chairman Of
the House Judiciary Committee,
before whom lengthy hearings on
the Randolph resolution were
held, also believes Congress made
progress on the District suffrage
issue during the session.
Although unwilling to make pre-
dictionS, Representative Summers
intimated his own opinion on local
and national suffrage was altered
in favor of the District as q result
Of the recent hearings.
The Texan thinks no conStitu
tional amendment is necessary to
establish a different form Of gov
eminent in the District. He said
his theory that Congress has the
authority to create any type OF
government it desires for Washing
ton, but asserted his personal be
lief that Congress would be unwill
ing to establish a government
which it could not revoke.

harm. If, however, it proceeds
fairly, and merely tries to give
to the nation the benefits Of

symptom.
The Assistant Attorney Cen
eral, Mr.. Thurman Arnold, has

The teaching inside the school about the diff

step farther before the kid realized the impor.
tance Of all these things. SO one day he asked
and received permission to start training his stu
dents at the wheel of the car. He took them out
after study hours and put them through real

doing all the other things that are absolutely

tional procedure, laid down by none other than
ourselves, is the issue involved in the notice
given by the japanese naval authorities in
China to Admiral Yarnen, chief of the United
States naval forces, and other foreign shipping,
that it might be better for them to evacuate the
Yangtze River, up which the Japanese have
begun an interior drive on China.

Safety Meant Little

Safety Meant Little
THERE was another thing which he found out
u to his surprise, and that was that the word
safety" meant very little to these young people.
Safety Is a repreSsed word. It is a scare. These
boys and girls are sick Of being told NOT to do
things. The rule Of human nature generally is
when q child is told not to do thing, he is all
the more determined to do it, and of course this
our young college professor had to overcome.
Wen. he overcame it by putting good driving on
the basis Of being good sport and good work
manShip.

speedcrazed children soon spread rapidly. and

road all through the country, teaching groups Of
highISchool teachers how to transmit the knowl-
edge he has given them to their pupils.

Nation Notified
VXHEN one nation attacks another, it usually
w notifies a third nation in advance Of its mill
tary actions. This is mainly to enable other
nations to take steps to help their nationals in
the war zone protect themselves.
Matter of Prec0utiOn
OUCH were the factors underlying the :lotice
~ from the Japanese naval men to the United
States and British naval men in the Yangtze
Contrary to some headlines, the former did not
ORDER the latter to move out Of the Yangtze
but suggested they move as a matter Of pre-
caution.
In essence, then, the japanese notice does not
differ from the warning the United States de-
livered foreign nations in 1914, before attacking
Vera Cruz. Usually foreign nations consider
such a warning as notice due. seldom as an in
suit or illegal action.

She became resentful. ''You

Biff. We had a date tonight"
Gosh, I forgot all about our

things, too," she added.

behind his back.

Recognizes Achievements
MIR. ARNOLD also says that mere big bust
ness is not necessarily bad business. If he
succeeds in convincing President Roosevelt Of
this he will have done well. He freely recog-
nizes the achievements Of great organizers
in business.
I would say that he has thus far revealed
two main errors:
/. Failure to see that Government monopoly
is no better than private monopoly.
2. Unfair and discriminatory treatment Of diff
ferent cases Of high prices.
There are three possible relations between
Government and monopoly. Government may
merely regulate: it may control; it may own
and operate. Probably, in most cases, the best
course is to retain private operation and en-.
courage individual initiative, merely regulating
these as may be required in the public interest.

ABANDONED PETS
HAVE NEW HOME
Animal Protective Unit to
Dedicate Building
tomorrow.

Homeless and abandoned waifs-ot
the four-legged variety-have found a
new shelter In the rescue home for
stray dogs, cats, horses and even goats,
which is to be dedicated tomorrow
afternoon by Miss Virginia w. Sargent,
founder and president of the Animal
Protective Association.
The dedication, which occurs on the
last day OF dog week, marks the COM
plet1on of an idea conceived many
years ago by Miss Sargent, who for
more than Is years has offered protec-
ton and kind treatment to helpless
stray animals.
Her work was started and in full
swing long before she could prepare
adequate quarters providing facilities
to handle the many cases she received
This year the association has complet-
ed building to house the strays and
to increase memberships in order to
maintain the organization.
Even Cows Taken In.
Tomorrow Miss Sargent and men,
bers Of the association will dedicate
the new building at 5000 Wheeler road
Sc. Located on 17l2 acres of wooded
grounds, the building has room not
only for cats and dogs, but for horses,
goats and even cows
Miss Sargent explained she had
ing for many years, but until recently
had been unable to carry out the plans.
Exhaustion Of her own funds has made
It necessary to seek assistance from
other animal lovers.
One of the chief duties of the asso-
eiation's one agent consists Of hunting
through the city's alleys at night to
find and feed homeless cats.
This worker, travelling in a truck
equipped with nets, ladders. lethel

most merciful type Of instrument.
travels all over the city. picking up
starving dogs and cats and rescuing
frightened cats from trees.
Miss Sargent receives many calls
from people who no longer can provide
home for their pets, and these and
the stray animals are given refuge by
the association Some of the strays.
particularly those which appear to
have been pets, are kept for a while,
awaiting chalmers. Those that are sick
and old and those for whom Miss
Sargent can find no homes are kept
for only comparatively short time.
Handles 10000 Animals.
I'VE give them a good time" Miss
Sargent said, I'VE feed them well and
see that they are happy, at least for
q while" Later the animals must be
destroyed.
The association has handled more
than 10000 dogs and cats and other
animals. At the new building there
are now two goats. a number OF
pigeons, a horse and a large white
rabbit. which was salvaged after Easter
when Miss Sargent received call that
1t apparently was homeless In addi-
ton there Is nearly every variety Of
dog and cat, including a number Of
cats which are descendants of a home

mother Al years ago,
She hopes, with the dedica ton Of
the new building, to start on a men,
bership campaign which will enable
her to continue for many years the
helpful work she has been doing.
