It Is expected that thre will be a large attendance. While much of the time will be absorbed in plenary ses- sions of the Jelegates, devoted to the discussion and the transaction of busi- ness, there will be several public ses- sons devoted to programs of u more popular character.

Ross Hill, vice chair- man of the American Red Cross, in charge of foreign operations.

I often wonder wher€ he is,.James Bulger, once my bosom friend; along the highway he may whiz, or through the solemn forest wend. No matter where he may have trekked, through palaces or Bedouin tents, he yet at times must recollect that he still owes me ffty cents: Perhaps he flees in frenzied haste fore a wild midogean gale; perhaps he’s in some arctic waste, with polar bears upon his trail. I picture him in camp asleep, when stars peep through the ‘cloudy rents, and when he wakes I see him weep because he owes me fifty cénts. No man can have a tranquil mind, or know the peace that does not fade, if he has left some debts behind, the debts he knows he should have paid. The memory will haunt him still when - he communes with other gents; and when he sleeps upon the hill, his dreams will be of fifty cents. I care not for that ancient loan, four bits won’t make or break a man; but Bulger's soul must creak and groan whene’er my name he haps to scan. He's lost the peace that is sublime, his halidom is full of dents, his fame is tarnished for all time because he owes me fifty cents. (Copygright) WALT MASON. e OF ASSUR’ANCE SOCIETY Bathing finnty Contest and Fif- teen Athletic Events Among Features of Program. Fifteen athletic events and a bath- ing beauty ccntest, with prizes for the winners, will be among the fea- tures of an outing Wednesday at Chesapeake Beach by the fourteen 10- cal councils of the National Unlon As- surance Society. The excursion will be for the benefit of the Hospital Service Association, which furnishes free hospital attention to members of the fraternity. The society has more than 3,000 members in Washington and more sided over by Chief Justice Taft, for many years chairman of the American Red Cross, and addresses will be deliv ered by Solicitor General James Beck, Dr. Livingston Farrand, president of Cornell University, and Mrs. August Belment. % Sessions of the convention will be held in_the Continental Memorial Hall [S of the Dauughters of the American Rev- olution. CITIZENS URGE CLOSING OF CLUB AS “NUISANCE” Carroll Faces Injunction Suit on Charge of Being “Disorder- ly House.” Special Dispateh to The Star. ROCKVILLE, Md., July 22.—Charg- ing that the Carroll Country Club, at Bethesda, this county. is a “public nuisance” and a “disorderly house,” H. Maurice Talbot, of the local bar, as attoreny for Karl C. Corley, Alfred Wilson, Mrs. numerous other residents and prop- erty owners of the Bethesda neighbor- hood, has filed in the circuit court here a bill to restrain Mrs. 1da Stan- ley and George Perry, who are under- stood to conduct the club, from opera- ting the establishment. Within the next day or two Judge Bdward C. Peter is expected fo sign an order directing the defendants to show cause why the petition should not be granted, and fix a date for a hearing. The club has been in operation since the first of April. About ten days ago, Mrs. Stanley and Perry were arrested on warrants charging them with keeping 2 dlsordorlr house, but when their case was called for trial in the pollce colirt here they asked for a jury trfal, which had the effect of delaying trial until the November term of the circuit court for the county. The criminal pro- ceedings did , it is said, interfere with o] n of the club, nor change the acter of the enter- tainménts previded there. It is charged in the petition that is daily and nightly fre- quented by a large number of per- soms of both sexes, principally Wash- isns: that loud and unseemly ses emanate from the house at y hour of the day or night; t profane and obscene language is used in the place and heard by the eomplainants, ell by and with the con- sent of the defendants. It is fur- ther ¢harged that as a result of the disorderly nature of the club the value of the homes of the complain- ants has been greatly diminished and the ordinary comfort and ‘enjoyment of their homes seriously interfered with. ° The defendants have retained T. Morris Wampler of Washington to represent them in both criminal and efvil proceedings. 3 MEADS BUREAU TRUSTEES Claude H. Woodward Better Fusi- ness Body Chairman. Claude H.

Early in the Spanish war President McKinley desired information about the strength and resources of the Cuban- forces commanded by Gen. @arcia, at that time located “some- where 'in_the judgles in the Interlor of the island.” Lieut, Gen. Nelson A. Miles, who then was In command of the_Army, ordered young Rowan, then ai aide on his staff at the War Department, to deliver the President “message to Garcia,” I& possible. Rowan asked no questidns as to where Garcia was or how he could be reached, but proceeded at once to execute his mission. g Safls In Disguise.

Senator Stanley said Senator Spen- cer's “tactics” were “most sly and cunning.” but declared they would “fool nobody but himself.” Senator Spencer said he resented the statements made earlier in the week by Senator Stanley when the latter charged Senator Spencer and other republicans with attempted in- terference in the democratic primary. He said that he did not desire to en- gage in a_controversy. but must re- mind the Senate that sat “intentionally impotent” when Senator Reed was contesting for a seat in the democratic national con- vention at San Francisco. At th time, Senator Spencer continued, Senator Reed's political life was in the balunce and he sald he recalled no effort on the part of Senator Stan- ley, a delegate-at-large, to go to the reecue of the senior Missourl sena or. » Flowers to Beautify July Weddings.

Garcia, delivered his message and received another in redponse thereto, with which he re- traced his perilous journey biick to Gen, Miles. Had he been caught by the Spanish forces, which practically surrounded the small Cuban army in the interior, he would have been shot or hanged as a spy. The information he brought from the Cuban general was of great value in subseguent operations of the United States Army and Navy and contributed materially to their suc- cess at Santiago and elsewhere in % Cuba. = Lieut. Rowan was cited by Gen. Miles in dispatches to the War De- partment as follows: “This %as a most_ perilous under- taking and, in my judgment, Lieut. Rowan performed an act of heroism and cool darii.g that has rarely been excelled in the annals of warfare.” Awarded With Promotion. Lieut. Rowan was promoted to be lieutenant colonel of the 6th United States Volunteer Infantry and served throughout the remainder of the short war. That was the only offi- cial recognition that was thought cotild be bestowed on him until the recent consideration of the case by the War Department authorities. Secretary Weeks referred the case to the Army board on awards and dec rations and his award of the dis- tinguished mervice cross to Maj. Rowan was based on the recommen- dation of that board, approved by CAMPS WILL FURNISH CITIZENS’ RIFLE TEAMS Each Corps Area to Furnish Twelve Graduates of Course of Mili- tary Instruction.

General Daugherty has announced the formation of an ad- visory council in the war frauds investigation, predicting that the en- tire scheme of the government's o: glnization to inquire into such ac- tivities would shortly be revealed. The advisory council, consisting of | three members, has for some time, been at work in Washington, the Attorney General said. The member- ship consists of ex-Senator Thomas of Colorado, whose connection with the war frauds investigztion was an- | nounced some time ago, and Judge T. M. Bit, “olumbus, Ohio, and | Judge Clirles Kerr of Kentucky. Judge Bitger, the Attorney General said, had for twenty-five years served fon the bench in Ohio and was con- | sidered by the Pepurtment of Justice | to be a “judge of very high class.” Judge Kerr rgsigned his position | as federal judge in the Panama Ca- | nal Zone to accept this new post. His | resignation has been accepted by Fresi- dent Harding, who wrote a letter in |halt connection expressing the coun- try's “grateful appreciation” for Judge Kerr's services. The plan of organization of the en | tire war frauds section of the De- partment of Justice, the Attorney General expected to announce later in the day. There had been, he said, much loose and “cheap talk” concern- ing the work of the war frauds sec- tion. The time had come, he thought, to reveal some of the actual ma- chinery by which the government is | going after war profiteers. RADIO BY TELEPHONE.

Secretary Weeks has decided that the four-year detail of Maj. Gen. Harry L. Rogers as quartermaster eneral of the Army expires August 8, and not today, as had been gen- erally supposed. 'The records show that the detail, which is in the nature of an appointment, bears date of July 1918. Gen. Rogers then was in Europe and did not accept the ap- pointment and assume the duties of the office until August 28 of that year. Considerable speculation prevails as to whether Gen. Rogers will be re- appointed for another term, or whether an officer of the line attached to the general staff will be placed in charge of the great supply depart- ment. e TODAY'S AMUSEMENTS.

The strike, whic of this controversy in order that July 21, 1922. A large proportion of the men employed by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com- pany designated as “Shop Crafts” left the service of this Company by concerted move- h began at that time on practically all of the railroads in the United States, still continues. The absence of such a number of skilled and unskilled men from their regular positions has, of course, interfered with the orderly operations of this Company and has placed an unusual burden upon the officers and employes who have remained loyal. The Baltimore and Ohio Company has already employed a large number of new men and a much larger number were available and would have been hired had not the Management desjred to avoid, or at least postpone so far as possible, filling the places of its former employes with other men. The failure on the part of local authorities at some points on the line to preserve order and protect those desiring to work also influenced the Company not to send more men until protection could be assured. Even under conditions as they now exist, the business handled by the Baltimore and Ohio Company yesterday, the 20th of the present month, was larger in volume than on any day since the strike began. The number of loaded cars handled yesterday was 80 per cent of the number moved daily on the average during the month of June. There are no matters in controv:rsy between the Baltimore and Ohio Company and its employes that cannot, in my opinion, be settled and settled promptly by a confegen_ce called for that purpose. The Baltimore and Ohio Company would much prefer to keepin its employ the men who have been in its service, many of them for years, and who are familiar with its working conditions and requirements, and I am confident that if a conference could be had between representatives of the men and the officers of this Cor t unfortunate situation could be quickly cleared up, and the Company earnestly invites the men to join in a conference for this purpose. _ In addition to the protection which the local public officers have afforded, there / - has now been added the further protection of the Federal government through the issue of injunctions by Federal courts at points where the upholding of law by local authorities. has proven to be difficult, consequently a much more orderly condition now prevails over ’ e mpany, that ‘We now have assurance that the men engaged in the performance of duty will be protected from violence and intimidation. It will, therefore, be much easier to obtain additional men such as may be required. Unless those who left their positions are ! willing to return to'work without further delay, or are willing and able to promptly join in such a conference as is suggested, it will be the duty of the Baltimore and Ohio Com- such other steps as may be necessary and still possible in order to resume normal operations. I feel confident that if a.conference can be arranged and if the parties to such conference are willing to approach the matter in a spirit of fairness and with " a sincere desire to effect a settlement, a prompt and satisfactory . conclusion can be reached, The Baltimore and Ohio Company, for which I am authorized to speak, will approach the matter in that spirit. g The public has a right to expect all of us to make every reasonable effort to bring we may thereby be enabled to give to the public the service which it has a right to demand and expect. 28 President, The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Co. for | elage 14th and Sta.
