co SECRETARY HUGHES THANKS BOY SCOUTS Praises Work Performed by Fhem-as Pages at Arms I (Conference Sessions. Colin H. Livingstone, president ef he pational organization of the Boy Scouts of America, has just received the following letter from Secretary the Boy Scouts of the District of Co- lumbia for efiicient work performed by them as pages in the sessions of arms:. - “I have received ypur letter of Feb- ruary 6. The Bay .Scouts rendered valusble assistance during the ses signszof ‘the conference on limita of aslsgaent,-and I take this oppor: tunity :g"nrvr!_nlm to them. throush you my sincass apnrecidtion of their williggness -to- help and o - servieds which - they have 300 Foek Part. ©Over three huandred different Bey Scouts participated, under the im- mediate leadership of Assistant Scout Execative James D. Hall. The idea of this service came to Mr. Livingstone, it is said, like an inspiration. The re- quest was referred to the Secretary of State, who arranged at once to accept the offer. ‘The boys were selected from the different troops in the city in such a way:as_not to interfere with their school work, and by this system of relays the conference was supplied daily-with Boy Scouts as pages. 'The scouts won for themselves the highest commendation from _the American representatives as well as from" all the foreign delegates, who have left the country carrying with them a profound impression of the importance and value of the Baoy Scout training for the young lads who in a few years will succeed their fa- thers in running the affairs of their country. Benefit by Experience. Omne official sald today that the Ecouts who participated in the con- ference “will be greatly benefited by the experi¢nce they have had of com- ing in contact, as they did, with the leading men of so many different - countries. It will be an inspiration to acéomplish great things and to be of greater value to their :own ecoun- The Boy Scout organization has written to Dr. Ballou, superintendent of the public schools, d the school board thanking them for making it possible for the scouts to render the service by excusing them from school work for a day at a time, so that the loss of school attendance was in each instance negligible. After a bitter fight Troop 40, Scout- master Thomas A. King, was the win- ner of The Evening Star trophy, the decision being given at a final in- spection held at the Y. M. C. A. build- ing Saturday night. This troop is identifled with the Powell-School. Mr. King is commended by scout officials for his excellent work with his troop. Troop 1, with Seoutmaster Lester G. Wilson, finished second ih the contest. : A feature of the assembly was the laying of the Troop 49 Drum and ugle Corps, under the direction of Scoutmaster John S. Cole, with Sergt.

FURTHER THEATER PROBE IS ORDERED Col. Keller’s Committee Finds One Casie Needing More Careful Attention. Conditions -warranting further at- tention have been found in ome in- stance thus far by the unofficial com - mittee of builders and engineers ap- pointed by the Commissioners to make a survey of amusement places of the city, it was learned at the District buildjng today. Engineer Commissioner Keller stated that one report has been lald before him by the committee and that he has directed that an Investiga- tion be made and the requisite or- degs issued. Nature of Findings Withheld. Col. Keller did not disclose what theater or theaters the report dealt Wwith or exactly what the nature of the findings were. It is apparent, however, that nothing of a serious nature was reported, in view of the fact that the Commissioners have not ordered any theater closed. Commissioner Keller said that he would lay the report of the committee before the full board of Commission- ‘ers and let the board decide whether the findings should be made public. ‘While Col Keller has received only one written report, it ,is understood the committee has already visited elght or ten of the theaters and is continuing the survey daily. Discussing the question in a general way, Col. Keller said that, of course, the ’Commissioners would have the right to order structural repairs if any should be found necessary for the safety of the public. 5 There might be instances, he said, ‘where, for example, an old theater could ‘not be made fireproof without complete rebuilding. The committee is going carefully into fire protection as well as structural safety in its exami- nation. - CAPT. STULZ AT HEAD. cers—Drectors Meet.

Senator Kenyon of Iowa, who re- cently was appointed a circuit judge in that state by President Harding, |V will resign from the Senate about th Iast of this month to take ub his naw auties. Senator Kenyen said today he had ot fixed upon an exact date for sub. mitting his resignation. Ulster is-said to have suggested to the British government the desirability of posting troops on the south side of the border, but this way firmly refused. all available northern police are be- ing moved to the frontier from the quiet areas, according to the Daily Mail's Belfast correspondent, and the boundary will soon be lined with 10,000 armed and disciplined men. The difficulty of preventing “the guns go- ling off of themselves” undar these cir- cumstances is emphasized by the cor- respondent, who says that at Pettigoe, in County Donegal, the rival forces jare separaied only by width of a street, while at Bel nd, Beleek, in County Fermanagh, they watching the provisional government, nothi is known here bey r, Col lins revealed in yons, secretary of the American - Association. -for Recognition of the Irish Kepublie, and the Dublin correspondents rain from even speculating on it. Of the suspension of troop move- ments. also, little more is known here than the fact, but it is generally Believed this development is due to each other from the opposite ends or a bridge. { 7 The danger is noy conflied Lo the frontier, he adds, owing to the angry antagonism of the Sinn Fleiners and Orangemen in various parts of Ulster, the results of which were eyidenced in the shooting and bombing in Belfast yesterday. The British government. is vitally concerned over the latest develop- ments and their poseib She dangerous state of affairs on !hei morthern border of the free state, mithough some correspondents refer &ndefinitely to “certain week end happenings in south Ireland” as a @entributory cause. It Is obvious from Mr. Collins’ statements to the reporters in Dub- lin last night that he strongly dis- sents from the British action in holding up the evacuation and will insist that “the contract shall be carried through." Last reports were that he was comi to London to- day to seek an explanation.
