zens of Kenwood, Md, yesterday held
their first Yoshino Cherry Blossom
Festival. More than 1000 persons
gathered despite subcomfort weather
to observe the crowning of Queen
Anne Hagner, attended by her
cherry bud princesses" and cherry
blossom maids"
Queen and court arrived at the
coronation spot through a maze of
blooming trees which police had pre-
viously decorated with cherry pink
no parking signs.
The festival ruler was transported
in red-wheeled carriage pulled by
gray horse, "Whatnot," and q
brown horse, Colonel" The cherry
blossom maids followed in a steel
gray sedan.
Through double line of 200 Mont
gomery School children, clad as
daisies, tulips, forget-me-nots, roses,
lilies, elves and fairies, the royal pro-
cession was led by two plumed her
aids, 8 and 10 years old, who were
blowing Justify on gilded trumpets.
The queen assembled her throne.
G. Wady Imirie, festival chairman,
then made brief address in which
he recalled that Gov. O'Conor was to
have crowned her last Saturday.
He said this rite was postponed one
week because of bad weather. But

Nozis Expected
Quick Attack,
American Says

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 25.-The wire
less operator of the American
freighter Mormacsea said today
Nazi troops had five days to dig in"
at Trondheim, Norway, before the
British finally attacked.
"The Germans expected a quick
attack" said the operator, Joseph
Tomaskovic of Monessen, Pa, but
1t didn't materialize until five days
later.
'"They captured Trondheim, a city
Of 60,00C population, with less than
500 men equipped with light ma
chine guns. There was no fighting
at all-no Norwegian soldiers in
sight.
"The Germans Immediately began
to put up defense works. You could
see they expected the allies in a
hurry. But when we sailed on April
IA we still hadn't seen single sign
of the British or French-either

McNutt Urges Drive
To Establish j. ).
Trade With Americas
Peace Won't Mean End
Of Controlled Market
Policies, He Warns

By the Associated Press.
CINCINNATI, April 25.-Paul v.
McNutt, Federal Security adminis-
traitor, urged last night that Amer
lea make a substantial and deter
mined drive to establish firmly Gts)
trade relations with South and Gen.
trail America and Mexico"
In an address before a world trade
dinner, Mr.. McNutt declared that
"by demonstrating to Europe We can
obtain trade advantages by peaceable
means, We may demonstrate the folly
OF attempting to do it by force of
arms"
The former Indiana Governor told
the audience of industrialists that
1--WE are determined not to get into it
(war) but We might as well recognize
that we cannot avoid its impact with
our ways of living and with our
business, both foreign and domestic. !"
Noting that "in the last decade
there have been extended efforts
for certain nations. to at
tempt to dominate the trade of whole
areas of the earth," Mr.. McNutt said
war had brought about an accelera-
tion Of these tendencies.
Foreign trade comes under the
domination of governments at war;"
he said. Markets are controlled not
only against the enemy but also
against neutral countries.
After the war these tendencies
will also be strong. If Germany were
to win the war, we could anticipate
a strong effort to unity the economic
systems of Europe and subordinate
them to the economy of Germany.
If the allies win, these tendencies
are not likely to disappear COM
pletely. The war has necessitated a
virtual pooling of the resources of
France and Britain. This co-ordina-
ton is quite likely to continue .
after the war"

ience, Mr.. Imirie revealed. At this
point 1t was discovered, he said, that
the school children participating in
the festival would be otherwise
occupied on this date, so everything
was shifted to yesterday.
Since Gov. O'Conor could not at
tend yesterday, County Commits
sioner Thomas E. Hampton volun-
teered to fill in, the festival chair
man told his audience. But three
quarters of an hour before the coro-
nation Mr.. Hampton phoned he
was "tied up" in court at Rockville,
Mr.. Imirie recounted.
In the Commissioners stead, the
coronation was performed by Henry

brother-in-Law Suinq
For 100000 Gets ST

An unjustified night in Jail is
worth 81, a District Court jury held
yesterday.
George B. Macdonald, 1017
Twelfth street NV, sued his
brother-in-law. Frederick G. Schen-
kel, 1918 Fourteenth street NV,
for 100000. Mr. Macdonald, who
alleged he was arrested at the in
stigation of his brother-in and
forced to spend a night in a cell,
got 81.
Mr.. Schenkel's defense was that
his sister, the plaintiffs wife, had
complained that she and her two
children had been evicted from their
home and her husband had deserted
her and threatened her. MIR Schen-
kel said he asked the police to
hold Mr.. Macdonald until he made
provision for his family.
The case was tried before Justice
James M. Proctor. Justice Daniel
w. ODonoghue in motions court
previously had excluded from the
complaint various city and police
officials who had been named as
defendants. The court held these
officers merely did their duty.

Coroner r. E. Sass reported q boy
about IL years old, whose body was
found between two vacant summer
cabins on the Lincoln highway, ap-
parently had been struck by an au-

body.
The coroner followed trail OF

one cabin, under which, he said, the

alive some time yesterday.
Signs indicated the lad regained
consciousness, rolled around and
dragged himself into the open. DR..

and exposure.

handled in my three years as COR
oner," declared the official.
A few marbles beside the pave
ment from where the trail of blood
started apparently fell from the VIC
TINS overalls pockets. No Identify
ing marks or papers were found on
the body.

Dempsey and KopIovitz Quit
+. C.. C.. Amid Friction Evidence
Two Young Lawyers
To Enter Private
Practice Here
BY WILLIAM J. WHEATLEY,


william j. Dempsey, general
counsel, and William C. Koplovitz,
assistant general counsel of the
Federal Communications Commits
sion, today submitted their resigna-
tions. They plan to leave the
commission in about two weeks to
enter the private practice of law
here.
This pair of young lawyers have
been working together in various
Government bureaus since 1888,
Mr.. Dempsey is "a and Mr.. Koplo-
vitz, 80. Their joint decision to
leave the commission after only a
year and five months in their
present positions came rather sud-
denly.
While both officials declared their
relations with the commission are of
the best, it is known that the ma
Jority Of the commission, headed
by Chairman James L. Fly. has not
seen mt on a number of recent oc-
casions to take the advice of the
law department. The action of the
commission against the activities
OF the Radio Corporation of Ameri-
ca In the promotion of teleyision
receivers, which stirred a protest in
the industry and in Congress, was
taken against the advice of Mr..
Dempsey, 1t was said.
"Crack-Down" Policy Opposed.
The ''crack down activities
against broadcasters and big busi-
ness engaged in broadcesting, now
on the ascendancy within the COM
mission, has been contested in a
number of instances by the two
young attorneys, who, it was said,
could not find legal support for
them.
Shortly after Frank r. McNinch,
was sent from the Power Commits
sion to the Communications group
to clean up a mess" as the Presi-
dent put it at the time, Mr.. Demp-
sey, who had been assistant general
counsel Of the power group, was
brought to the communications body
as special counsel and adviser to Mr..
McNinch. Then the latter started
his reorganization plans which re-
suited IN abolishing the examiner
system, discharge of two examiners,
and the dismissal of Hampson Gary
as general counsel. Then followed
reorganization of the law depart
ment, of which Mr.. Dempsey was
made the head in December, 1898.
At the same time Mr.. Koplovitz was
brought to his present position from
the Power Commission.
During public hearings by the
commission recently, observers have
pointed out that Chairman FLY has
conducted most of the cross-exami-
nations, In the place of the general
