Court Clerk 10 Testify
AT De Marcos Hearinq

Two former jurists and the clerk
of the Court of Appeals, and the
United States Attorney have been
subpoenaed to testify tomorrow in
District Court concerning the indict-
ment of Julian R. De Marcos, 78
who is seeking to obtain his freedom
from st. Elizabeth's Hospital.
Attorney James j. Laughlin, repre-
senting De Marcos, said last night
that he has subpoenaed former
Associate Justices Justin Miller and
Thurman Arnold; Joseph w. Stew
art, clerk of the Court of Appeals
and United States Attorney Edward
M. Curran. They are expected to be
witnesses at the habeas corpus hear
ing before Justice James w. Morris
in District Court at 10 am. tomorrow
De Marcos was indicted here some
time ago on charge of assault with
a dangerous weapon and ne was
returned to the District from Ten
nesSee on that indictment. This
was after Justice T. Alan Colds
borough had freed him on a habeas
corpus writ in District Court. After
De Marcos was returned to st.
Elizabeth's Hospital, the indictment
was dropped.
Mr.. Laughlin contends the Court
of Appeals, with Mr.. Miller and Mr..
Arnold sitting on the case. ordered
that De Marcos be taken into GUS
tOdV after Justice GOldShorolIoh
had freed him-an unusual pro-
cedure.
The lawyer maintains that the
authorities never intended to try
De Marcos on the assault with a
dangerous weapon charge, but
merely used a criminal process-a
bench warrant to secure his return
to the District.

Urges Fight for Peace
By the Associofed Press

BALTIMORE, Sept. 81. - DR..
Isaiah Bowman, president of Johns
Hopkins University, told entering
students yesterday you may have
to fight" to sustain a cooperative
world peace"
Since 1912 he has served as State
Department adviser and partici-
pated in the Dumbarton Oaks and
San Francisco conferences.
The disagreement betweens Russia
and America stems from the choice
which must be made between two
systems, zone Democratic, the other
totalitarian, one depending on the
secret ballot, the other on secret po-
lice," DR.. Bowman said.
Soon, very soon, you may be re-
quired to do something about it.
You may have to fight about it.
- Let no sophistry, no errors of
Government in our free society blind
you" to the differences between
democracy and totalitarianism.
The Soviet system does not pre-
pare it's leaders for the "give-and-
take of an international conference
where several systems are represent
ed," DR.. Bowman declared.
while the Soviet leaders SUBJ
scribed to the Atlantic Charter they
clearly meant to interpret it to suit
their own peculiar ends" he said.
Those ends included the Sovietiza-
ton of the world"
Stain expressed it in these words,
we must prepare for any eventual

ROANOKE, Va, Sept. 21.-Rex
Kildow, State director of the CIO
Public Workers Union, has served
notice that his union will continue
to organize municipal employees in
Virginia, in spite of 1916 General
Assembly resolution declaring it
against the policy of the State to
bargain with labor unions.
There is no law which prohibits
any employe, public employees in
cluded, from joining a union" Mr..
Kildow said in an interview Neither
is there law at the present in the
State which prohibits workers from
organizing and being recognized.
1.-The General Assembly merely
passed a resolution which indicated
it was the feeling, meaning the feel
ing of the General Assembly, that
it is against the policy of the State,
city or county to deal with unions"
The CIO director said the public
workers union has locals in Rich

Portsmouth and Roanoke and that
others will be organized later.

Lane Asks Naval Academy
To Review AihieId Plan
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

BALTIMORE, Sept. 21.-A query
as to whether construction of the
Naval Academy's proposed Sandy
Point airf1eld would be advisable
in view of Maryland's intention to
build a Chesapeake Bay bridge in
that area was addressed yesterday
to the academy superintendent by
William Preston Lane, jr, Demo-
cratic gubernatorial nominee.
Recalling previous discussions on
the subject with Navy officials, Mr..
Lane said it had seemed desirable
to make inquiry whether the Navy
Department would regard the pro-
posed location as desirable if the
bridge became reality.
A second point of investigation
had been suggested, Mr.. Lane wrote,
to determine if the department
should object to the construction OF
the bridge after it had decided on
the airport.
The candidate said his letter was
prompted by the recent announce
ment of the Navy Department that
it would seek congressional sane
tion for the airport, which will be
used primarily to train midshipmen.
