can be heard for miles away. Per-

Flag Symbols

rag SymDOS
A blood-red flag has always been
a symbol of mutiny or revolution.
A black flag was the symbol of the
pirate. Now flown only after an ex-
ecution to show the law has been
carried out. AL over the world a
yellow flag signals infectious dis
ease, and a white Gag is universally
a flag of truce. At sea, striking Of
the flag means surrender. When
the flag Of one country is placed
over that Of another the victory Of
the former is denoted. In time Of
peace, this would be an insult and
if done, even by mistake, an apology
would have to be made. In the old
days, it was customary to trail the
flag Of a vanquiShed foe behind the
ship.

from failure to make a signal, sud-

essary to avoid a pedestrian.

With results to date running far
ahead of the average of 10 resistra-

within the specified 100 working day
period, registration of non-citizens
continued at the City Post Once

Three hundred and ninety-six reg

terday. This was 81 more than the
total on opening day Tuesday, and
brought the number registered in
the first two days up to 701. Esti-
mates this morning indicated that
today's total would be about that
of opening day.

Are you aliens?" asked Mr.. Lewis.
"Yessuh," was the reply.

Mr.. Lewis explained that only

The law bars citizenship to Orientals.
Registration at Alexandria. Va,
one of $50 post Offices designated for
this purpose in Virginia, began
belatedly this morning. Failure of
the Alien Registration Division Of
the immigration and Naturalization
Service to provide the post office
with all the required forms caused
the delay.
A number of other post Offices
throughout the Nation, mostly in

held up by an inadequate supply

Autoist's Adventures
End in Capture Of Three

A. p. Collins, 20, Of l70l T street
NV. had trouble with his car last
night.
First, 1t was stolen from him when
he parked it in the 1700 block of A
street Sc. He looked around for q
while and finally located the vehicle
parked near Nineteenth and East
Capitol streets.
Happily Mr.. Collins stepped up 10
the automobile, opened the door and
started to get in. He walked right
into punch on the nose and, before
he could recover, four men swarmed
out of the car and started beating
him.
Then they fed down the street.
A police squad car arrived a few
minutes later and Mr.. Collins start
ed them on a search for the quartet.
He got into his car once again to
drive of.
But he found that the thieves had
tempered with the ignition wires.
He couldn't start it. Before he could
get repairs made police returned to

Court Clerks Urged
To Adopt Plan 10
Work With Lawyers
Special Committees
To Advise on Unusual
Procedure Requested

Special committees to be appointed
by the Bar Association and United
States Court clerks to increase CO.
operation between the two bodies
was advocated today by Francis w.
Hill, president of the District Bar
Association.
Mr.. Hill, speaking at the opening
session of the 10th annual conven-
ton Of the Federal Court Clerks
Association at the Wardman Park
Hotel, said occasions often arise
when the advice of court clerks
must be sought on unusual court
procedure.
TT would seem to me that it
would be helpful if the Clerks Com
mittee would compile a memoran-
dunn as to their suggestions as to
procedure in those cases which are
not specifically covered by rules"
Mr.. Hill said.
Praises Court Clerks.
Il believe that if this suggestion
is agreeable to the clerks that in so
far as our Bar Association is con-
cerned we would indeed be delighted
to appoint committee on relations
with the clerks of our Federal courts
and l believe that we would be rem
dering a real service In lettering
the administration of justice"
The speaker, in praising court
clerks as recorders of history, as
serted that were it not for court
records it would probably not be
known today that George Washing
ton was a judge of the Fairfax
County (Va) Court from ITO to
1772.
George Brodbeck, president of the
association, seconded Mr.. Hills pro-
posal and said that he hoped that
the National Bar Association would
actively consider it at its next con-
vention.
Largest Convention.
In welcoming the delegates who
had assembled here from all over
the country. Mr.. Brodbeck said this
is the largest convention the as
ISOLATION has ever held. Clerks and
deputy clerks are in attendance from
SO Federal Court districts.
This afternoon the clerks were
to be addressed by Henry P.
Chandler, director Of the administra-
tive Office of the United States
Courts, and by Victor S. Mersch,
deputy register of wills of the Dis
trict Tonight there will be social
entertainment.
The convention will continue

COLLAPSE OF ST. LOUIS CARDS
 TOPS EXPERTS
Now in Battle With Bees to Avoid CeIIar-New.
 hOuser Is Hero
BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff COrrespOndent)

United Press Stan Correspondent
 New York, May 3.--tUP)--Quite as shocking as the Dodgers electri- flying start, or the Yankees lacka- daisical beginning is the utter col lapse of the St. Louis Cardinals the team the experts picked to dethrone the Cincinnati Reds.
 In St. Louis today the Cardinals clash with the Bogton Reeds In battle to stay out Of the National League cellar. The Giants thrashed the Cardinals yesterday, 7-4, and plopped them into seventh place, only a game and a half ahead of the woeful Bees, adJudged by many as the majors weakest ball club.
 The Cards have won only 1 games out Of II, and two of the victories may be traced to Dizzy Deans noth- ing ball. The Cards rapped him to cover twice, but he luckily escaped with only one defeat charged against him. Thus the Cards find themselves c i-2 games of the pace at this early date.
 Sloppy pitching and ragged de- fense plus Il errors in Il games ex- plain the plight of the Cardinals. They have been hitting well with Joe Medwick, Enos Slaughter, Don Pudgctt, Pepper Martin and Mickey owen all well Up in the 300 bracE- cts.
 GnfleIdcr Needed
 The Cards desperately need an- other first class inhelder. Johnny Hudson, who hasn't played single inning for Brooklyn, would do won- ders for the Cardinal inheld. When tho Dodgers sold Outlleldcr Mel Armada 10 the Cards Rochester farm many thought that was the forerunner of q deal which would gend HudGon 10 the Cards for a pitcher, possibly Bill Mcdee, but 70 far the deal hasn't materlali2ed.
 The Giants won their belated western debut yesterday by shaping Curt Davis, Clyde Shoun and Harry Brechecn for IA hits. It was the eighth game in eleven in which Shoun has appeared Fly Vandon- berg and Cliff Melton let the Cards down with five hits, with Melton allowing only two in the last 6 Ia innings Terry Moores homer with two on kept the Cards in the ball game until the sixth,
 Mickey Witek's homer inside tho park, cn which the usually relIa- ble Terry Moore ripped and fell, was the winning score. Harry Dan- ming led the Giant attack with four hits in Ave trips.

 In the only American league game Detroit beat Washington, b-3, nov ing withi na half game Of the league leading Indians and Red Box. Har- old NeWhouser, rookie southpaW, outpitched Rookie Sid Hudson, al- lowing only six hits. Rudy York's hcmcr with one on base was the big blow in the Tiger attack.
