MEEKS DEFENSE
 TRIES IMpEACH
 TWO WITE.sgES
Government Rests Prose cufion of Meeks for Mur-
 der, Clarence Campbell

Defense attorneys for George Harrison Meeks began attempts this morning in U. $. District Court to impeach two witnesses who had previously given testimony for the prosecution. Attorneys William l.. Paul, Jr.. and M. E. Monagle be- gan to present their defense of Meeks after U. s. District Attor- ney P. J. Gilmore, Jr, announc- ed the Government rested.
 The announcement came after Judge George w. Folta denied a motion from the defense counsel to have their own expert examine the clothing of the murder victim, Clarence J. Campbell. The denial was based on the testimony of William E. Didelius, former FBI Agent, who was recalled to the witness stand He said that Camp bells bloody clothing had been des- troyed by him and that other clothing had been turned over to U. s. Commissioner Felix Gray to be returned to the slain mans parents.
 Testimony by Raymond Traitor at the original trial of Meeks was then entered into the current trial records. Traitor, a former cab driver, had told of driving Camp bell from the Occidental Bar to a Willoughhy Avenue address at 10:30 o'clock on the evening before his body was discovered laying in a gutter near the unfinished resi- dence of H. B. Foss in the upper Scatter Tract.
 Gray Is Witness
 U. s. Commissioner Felix Gray was then called in to give testi- mony regarding the Coroner's in- quest he held on Campbell's death. Attorney Paul was not permitted more than a lew preliminary ques- tions of Gray because of legalit- ies involved He said that he was attempting to impeach Dr. William Whitehead's testimony but Judge George w. Folta ruled that the Coroner's records could not be introduced under the conditions on which Paul based his arguments.
 Hardness Mentioned
 Clerk of the Court J. w. Leivers was then called to the stand for the purpose of introducing court records pertaining to Kelso B. Hartness, another government wit ness. After considerable argument, the defense was permitted to bring out that Meeks had been in dicted for assault with a danger ous weapon on complaint signed by Hardness. Judge Folta ruled, however, that he would not try two cases at the same time and that only the nature of the charge could be stated He also permitted the evidence concerning a previous conviction of Hartness on forgery.
 Mrs. Elizabeth Constantine, who is ill in the hospital, was allow ed to have her testimony at the original trial entered She was asked questions concerning the reputation of Hardness and stated that it was bad as far as she was concerned. She declared that he had never told her the truth. She had been a resident of the Salo Rooms.
 Court was recessed at noon and was to be called back at l 80 D. m. for the arguing of motions The jury was to be called in at D. m for the resumption of testimony

| Demand for Railroads
Provides Gains Of
Almost Two Points
By Williom D. Horson


NEW YORK, Aug. 26.-Demand
for selected railroad issues put a
touch of life in the stock market
today.
Gains for the carriers ranged to
an extreme of around points.
Elsewhere small advances and de-
clines were pretty we'll mixed.
Trading activity continued at the
same low rate which has prevailed
during numerous recent sessions.
Railroad earnings reports for
July continued to show decided, and
often striking, improvement over a
year ago. In addition, prospects
for maintaining high income level
are considered excellent.
Higher prices were paid for Nickel
Plate, Illinois Central, Great North
ern Preferred, New York Central,
General Motors, Chrysler, Good
year, Montgomery Ward, Lockheed,
American Telephone, Common
wealth & Southern, Cerro de Pasco,
General Electric, Ovens Illinois. In
ternational Paper, and American
Woolen.
On the losing side were Sears
Roebuck. Santa Fe. Boston & Maine,
Boeing, National Distillers, Con-
solidated Natural Gas, Dow Chem
ical, American Tobacco, and Union
Pacific
Bonds moved narrowly. In the
over-the- counter market prices for
United States Government issues
were unchanged to a trifle lower for
the distant maturity bank eligible
bonds.

AtInteIIectuaIs' ParIey
By The Assoeiotsd Press

by me Assoe,ofed Ffsss
WROCLAW, Poland, Aug. 26.--A
blistering attack on the United
States by a Soviet novelist opened
the World Congress of Intellectuals
here yesterday. ....
Alexander Fadiejev, the novelist,
spoke as chief of the Russian dele
cation. The violence of his attack
surprised many conference observ-
ers. who commented, I'VE thought
this was supposed to be a peace con-
ference"
Fadiejev charged that American
"imperialists" are seeking war and
trying to establish police states all
over the globe. He attacked most
books as trash and filth" He said
the contemporary culture of Amer
lean imperialism is giving of a
stencil of decay"
John Rogge. former assistant
United States Attorney General and
member of the American delegation,
indicated he will answer the Russian
today. Mr.. Rogge told newsmen he
is opposed to any authoritative re-
gime which tries to tell people what
to think.

District Parent Sues
Mrs. Hite for $4,000,
Charging Negligence

Mrs. Maude C. Hite, operator of
the Hite Nursery School near Rock
vile, has been sued for $4,000 by a
Washington man who charged his
two daughters became seriously i'll
while in the school as a result of in
adequate care. Mrs. Hite denied the
charges.
The suit was filed yesterday in
Montgomery County Circuit Court
by Cyril r. Haas, 1884 Twenty
eighth street NV. Mr.. Haas seeks
5000 damages on behalf of his
2-year-old daughter. Elizabeth Ray
Haas: 81. 500 on behalf of his 3-year-
old daughter. Sarah Baker Haas,
and $2,500 for himself.
In the suit, Mr.. Haas stated his
two children were enrolled in the
school from May II to May 70, 1913.
During that time, he says, Mrs. Hite
"negligently allowed" them to be-
come i'll.
One Child Hospitalized.
He claims in the suit that Eliza
zeth had to be hospitalized and
was in danger of losing her life.
According to his attorney, An
drew w. Starrapp. jr., Elizabeth
caught measles, which later de-
veloped into pneumonia. Sarah also
had measles, Mr. Starrapp said.
When called at the school, Mrs.
Hite denied the charges, maintain
ing the children received the best
OF care" She said she now is
operating under q temporary permit
which is good until next Wednesday
She also said she plans to apply
today for a permanent license.
J. Ernest Hawkins, clerk to the
county commissioners, said today
however, that Mrs. Hite's temporary
permit already has expired. He ex
planned that under the new county
school ordinance any one operating
school without permit is SUBJ
ject to $25 fine for every day the
violation occurs.
To Wait Till Wednesday.
Mr.. Hawkins said the commits
sioners have decided TO wait until
next Wednesday, the day when
most schools in the county begin
their fall terms, before prosecuting
those who have not obtained Ii
censes.
Mrs. Hite figured in the news last
fall when Washington couple
complained they found their two
children tied to their cribs in an
over-heated and freshly painted
room at the nursery.
The couple. Mr.. and Mrs. Ronald
Langlotz. 1921 Connecticut avenue
NV, withdrew their children from
the school Immediately afterwards
Investigation by county authori-
ties disclosed that the school was
being operated without a county
permit. No action was taken
against Mrs. Hite at that time, how
ever, after county officials said the
ordinance covering such establish
ments lacked teeth" The new
ordinance. drafted largely as re-
suit of the investigation, became
effective last May.

PEEKSKILL, N. UT was
the eminent revolutionary war
historian, who said Negroes
fought side by side with their
white brothers in the great con-
illicit of rs" One hundred seventy
two years later, Negroes are
training side by side with whites
in the State Guard.
Of the 1900 guardsmen from
all sections of the State, nearly
half OF them are Negroes, the
team work developed has been
called far above expectations,
according to Maj. Gen. Edwin G.
Buffalo, senior troop commander,
and commanding general of the
Fourth Division of the New York
National Guard. No friction has
developed. Military policemen
work in pairs, and the guards
men undergo their training side
by side in the fled. and on the
rifle range. ",
White troops of upper New
York City, from Buffalo to AL
bany, with smaller units from
Manhattan, are encamped with
Negro units from Harlem and
Brooklyn in the West Camp. The
interracial units work together
well and the respect shown each
other by officers, both white and
colored, the friendly feeling eX-
hibited and the spirit shown in
the training routine and on the
ranges, are indeed marvellous
and far beyond the expectation
of the commanding officers.
Maj. Emanuel A. Luces and
Maj. Alonzo Brown, both Ne
groes and staff members, de-
cared that morale was extreme
ly high, and there was complete
understanding among both races
