OF DOVER, DIES
Widely known Republican PO-
litical Leader Passes, Aged
Eighty Years
U. S. SENATOR IN 1903

J. Frank Alice, former United
States senator and for years active
in the Republican Party, died early
Thursday morning at the home Of
+ his son, James F. Alice, Jr.. editor
and publisher of the State Sentinel
on Dover Green. Mr.. Alice was
born December 2, 1857. He was so
years of age last December. He
had been i'll for several weeks, and
death was due to general debility.
The family of former Senator Alice
has been prominent in business and
politics in Kent County for more
than century. His grandfather,
Presley Alice, was clerk of the Su-
preme Court of the state by ap-
pointment of Gov. Daniel Rodney
His father, James F. Alice, was a
jeweler in Dover for many years,
also served as judge Of the Or
phans' Court, and was secretary
and treasurer of the Delaware Rail
road at the time of its construction
and held those offices for many
years.
Well known in Politics
While former Senator Alice sue
ceeded his father in the jewelry
business and had other business
connections he was best known in
politics and as a leader of the Ad-
dicks faction of the Republican
Party for many years.
Mr.. Alice served two terms in
the state Senate from 1898 to 1903
and was member of that body
when the constitution went into
effect. He was elected to the Unit
ed States Senate for a four-year
term in 1908. He became associat-
ed politically with j. Edward Ad-
dicks shortly after the latter came
to Delaware the latter part of the
last century. Mr.. Addicks for years
was a candidate for the United
States Senate, an ambition which
he never realized.
Illc dQNSuI u AuUlChS CduSeu
split in the Republican Party and
Mr.. Alice became leader in the
Union Republican (Addicks faction)
Party. He served as chairman of
the Union Republican State Com
mittee for some years and was gen
orally recognized as the closest
man in Delaware to Addicks, who
was widely known as a gas mag
nate. Mr.. Alice also was associat-
ed with Addicks, in business having
been president of the Bay State
Gas Company for several years.
The regular Republican faction
of the party, headed by Col. Henry
A. DUPONT, opposed Addicks and
his methods to win seat in the
Senate, and was successful in that
opposition which continued over a
long period.

Baker admitted he escaped from
the Mansfield (Ohi0 penitentiary

welfare department advised local
police that it regretted" that lack
of funds would not permit it to
undertake the extradition Of
Baker.
The message added, however,
that Bakers return probably

arrested in the future at some
point closer to Ohio.

David Babp Says Time
0pportune for Crusade
BY A. J. DRISCOLL
Citizens Associations Editor

Local self-government for the
District was demanded by the
Federation Of Citizens Associa-
tions at Saturday nights meeting
in the District Building, whelI
after prolonged and sharp debate
it instructed officers and suffrage
committee to work for the fran
chise with other groups, and re-
port back on the best plan to re-
organize the District government
into an efficient and economical
municipality. in which the people
will have a voice in electing their
officials.
The action was taken on recon-
mendation of Wilbur S. Finch,
chairman Of the suffrage commit
tee, who pointed out a growing
desire on the part of members of
Congress, to be relieved from legis-
lating for the District, in order to
devote more time to their own con-
stituenrs, and to place control of
municipal affairs in the hands of
local residents.
TINE OPPORTUNE
David Bsbp, secretary of the
federation, reported there were
more bills in Congress favoring To-
cal suffrage than ever before, and
said now was the opportune time
to press for vote.
The Finch recommendation was
warmly supported by W. j.
Tucker, of Anacostia; Fred s..
Walker, of Park View; w. H. Sea-
quest, of Manor Park; Jesse C.
Suter, of the Society of Natives;
James F. Duhamel, of the Associa-
ton of Oldest Inhabitants, and
others.

land, and Alfred D.. Calvert, of
Lincoln Park. urged rejection, in
Sisting Washington is one of the
best governed large cities in the
nation, and declared he feared
the possibility of political turmoil.
In the meantime. the District of
Columbia Suffrage Association, of
which Mr.. Finch is president. is
arranging for a city-wide suffrage
meeting, March 1s.
FOR STATUS QUO
The federation indorsed a report
by H. c. Phillips, chairman of the
education committee, opposing a
proposed bill to create a recrea-
ton board, for Capitalization of
all public amusement facilities.
1t was found the bill as drafted
would vest control of school build
lngS and grounds in an agency
other than the Board Of Educa-
ton, when used for recreation and
community gatherings, thereby de-
priving the board of its rightful
and full control Of school prop
critics.
RIDERS ASSAILED
The report also assailed riders
tackled on the 1888 District supply
bill, which tends to transfer con-
troll of custodial service in the
schools from the Board of Educa-
tion to the District Commissioners
and which places school Librarians
in the same class as those en-
ployed in public libraries.
The federation reaffirned for
mer action, favoring q general
sales tax, as against the business
privilege tax, and favored the ex-
tension Of branch libraries, in
preference to construction Of a
new main library.

Paris (UP) - Fashion takes the stage quite frequently in Paris where most every modern play is costum- ed by @ famous couturier. Cavalier Suel" opened in riot of seasonal colors, because Schiaparelli was re- sponsible for the gowns. Mile. Ar letty, leading lady, appeared in a green woolen suit worn with a mauve blouse, and her navy blue travel coat had a shocking pink scarf printed with white stars. She wore torquoise blue blouse with brown Harris tweed suit. Her even ing gown was typical of the Schia- parelli collection; a slim bright blue crepe worn with a very short richly embroidered bolero.
 Mlee, Blanche Montel who essaycd another role in this play wore @ charming sports suit; tight fitting red wool packet and blue and red plaid skirt. The navy blouse was trimmed in red velvet. Her tea IU>s' was printed in white and mauve flowers. Mile. Montel also woSe g pink linen suit with a malve blouse.

It isn't often that mere gown stops the show-especially Sacha Guitry show. But that is what hap pened when Mile. Jacqueline Dcfu- bac walked on the stage the opell- ing night of Guitry,s self-written "Le Comedien."
 Reason-she was wearing Pa quin's sheath-like black dinner dress which features a packet embroider- ed in small round mirrors. The far ing peplum of the jacket which dipped nj back also was covered with the new mirror motifs. Second- ly, she was wearing Perllgia's sen- sational three-inch soled shoes done in black and silver with intricate cross lacings. And last, she was wearing small hat from which rose wide tulle ruffie. Another of Mile. Delubac's Paquin gowns was of billowing white tulle, strips of sparkling pailettes evtendinf across the bodice and crossing os the hips to mould the otherwia fiaring skirt.

cles, tired, too warm and nervous instead of cool-looking, poised and neatly groomed.
 Then, too, it's a fine idea to make up your mind that you are going to enjoy every minute of summer. It will be hot. You know that, so you might as well be philosophical about the matter instead of railing against 1t and becoming as tired from complaining as from the heat. Get the kind of clothes that make for comfort, figuring out way to keep them looking neat as a pin, plan beauty routines that will keep your skin fresh and blooming, hair tidy. Reorganize the house, having cool, almost bare floors instead of thickly carpeted ones, packing away superfluous gadgets and putting white pots of dark green ivy ir their place. And, whenever you find yourself too unhappy about the weather, try to remember that you were just as unhappy last winter when 1t showed and was bitter cold.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
 Hernia Cured
 Last summer, following your ad- vice, had ambulant treatment for a hernia of eight years standing. The doctor allowed me to remove the truss finally in October. No sign of trouble since. Thank you very much. (F. B.
 How about doing the belly breath ing exercise to restore tone to the muscles which had become weak ened by my "favoring" the hernia all those years? (F. B.
 Answer-Better ask the doctor who treated you. Incidentally, it is almost as pleasant for me to receive such a message-provided you di- vulge to me the name of the doctor as it is for doctor himself.
 Three Times and Through
 Thank you sincerely for your booklet "The Constipation Habit and Colon Hygiene" At first was highly skeptical but later I read it over more carefully, and finally a third reading of the first half. Then I began to think-I am forever through with physic. (S. J. B.
 Answer-That's just what ails the average gink, who learns to read but not to think For copy of the booklet send ten cents coin and a three-cent stamped envelope bear ing your address. Envelope must be standard size, not less than 3h by inches.
 Psoriasis
 Following your suggestion we be- gan givin gour children a daily ra- tion of 5000 to 5000 units of vita mi D to supplement their regular diet, prevent carries and maintain immunity against cri. We are happy to report that both of them now have smooth, clear skins-they were both subject to dry, cracking scaly state of the skin doctors called psoriasis. (M. s.
 Answer-Physicians are treating severe chronic psoriasis success fully with massive dose of vitamin D, the same treatment as for chronic arthritis.
