August 22.—Guests of “Rotels and restaurants of the Unfted States no longér would be cbliged to adjust their tongues to the unuspal French menu terms, but cowld use the common English terms without violating any rules if pro- posals prepared for consideration at the annual convention of the Inter- national Stewards’ Association, which opened here today, should be adopted. “No longer wiil the hungry guests be compelled to call for the ‘menu’ and ask the ‘garcon’ to serve him ‘beef au jus,' " said one of the 300 delegates registered for the conven- | tion, “or to brimg him ‘cafe noir en demi tasse, but simply say, ‘Waiter, please bring me some beef and gravy, 2nd black coffee in a small cup,” with- he.is not well versed on good man- ners and rules of society.

THE ONE WOMAN BESTS PAIR OF BANDIFS IN STORE HOLD-U A lone woman put to rout with ber bare hands two heavily armed negro burglars who attempted to rob hef husband's confectionery store at 447 R street northwest last night. The heroine was Mrs. Harrlet Cott, who was attending the store shortly before 10 o'clock, when the negroes entered. Instantly they drew revolvers, took deliberate aim and demanded she surrender of all money in the place. Mrs. Cott held a hammer in her hand at the time, but she dropped it and sprang at the nearest me- gro, seizing the hand that held his revolver. When the second would- be bandit saw his companion being worsted in the struggle he joined in and Mrs. Cott fought the pair until they heard her husband com- ing and fled. The police were furnished a good description of the burglars.

Is Determined Goal of TUndesirables. . Illegal Immigration, particularly Chinese from Cuba, constitutes one of the most serlous problems before the | Labor Department, Secretary of Labor Davis declared yesterday, in com- menting on efforts being made to se- | cure closer co-operation between the Cuban government and the United States, according to the Assoclated Press. Mr. Davis was represented as belng hopeful that negotiations be- tween the State Department and Cuba would tend to remove some of the obstacles confronted by the tmmi- gration authorities and the Labor De- | partment in dealing with smuggling operations. It developed yesterday that nego- tiations on the subject began in Oc- tober last, when Secretary Hughes asked the Cuban legation here to call certain features of the situation to the attentlon of officialy in Havana. | Since then the legation has sent sev- ieral other inquiries to its home gov- ernment, but has received no formal tions. For Cuba Restrictions. The latest phase of the problem nnderstood to have resulted, trom a| letter written to Secretary Hughes by Secretary Davis on August 3, ating that the Labor Department | as deemed it proper as well as sable to present this matter | muggling of Chinese from Cuba | {into the United States) for the con- sideration of your department, with the request that if you approve of that course the American minister at Havana, or other proper representa- ft of this government, make ap- | propriate representations to the gov- ernment of Cuba with the object in view of ascertaining if restrictions of la character which will serve to ma- terfally check the movement to that ]country of aliens of the Chinese race may not be i ed under the laws of that countr. Mr. Davls aiso suggested thaf the Cuban government “may be able to devise some plan whereby the depart- ure from ports of Cuba of craft en- gaged in the smuggling of alient to our coast and who are-or may not be {eliglble for admission. may be ma- terially checked.” He said his depart- ‘very gravely concerned er the situation which n revails our southern Atlantic and gulf s growing out of the smuggling from Cuba of aliens in large numbers,” and explained that “it seems to be the generally accepted view of persons in touch with the vation that virtually the entire | present Chinese population of Cuba | (except. of course, those who are en- {gaged in business there) have the one thought uppermost in mind of galn- ing entry to the United States. which entry must necessarily be accom- plished by unlawful means. Extensively Investigated. Secretary Davis declared the Labor Department “recently had -a rather extensive investigation made _into smuggling matters on the Florida coast and Its investigators spent some time in Cuba looking into the ‘aftua- tion there.” According to the bes formation available, id, “there are now in Cuba 2. ,000 young —Chinese, m, hom are without employment and apparently without immediate pros- pect of obtalning employment.” Calling_attention to the movement across the United States from the Pacific coast of large numbers of Chi- inese “In transit” for Cuba, Mr. Davis jexplained to Secretary Hughes that| “while the department could quite properly, In view of their apparent lack of good faith in the matter, pro- hibit the farther transit hcréss United States territory of Chidese aliens des- tined for Cuba. the futility of so do- ing is apparent when it {8 corisidered that other routings from China to Cuba are alreday being utilized, per- haps to a greater extent than are the routes which carry them through the United States” - 1f the movement of Chinese laborers to Cuba could in some manner be checked, the Secretary asserted, “the problem of this government in coping with the smuggling situation would be relieved, although doubtless: a large percentage will eventually seek to gain unlawful entry to this coun- try, and in all probability many of them will succeed in gaining entry, owing to the lack of proper machinery on this side with which to frustrate their endeavors.” SHEETROCK *The Fireproof Wallboard " Work/s Wonders in the Attic Let Sheetrock turn your ® | cheerless sttic into an at- tractive room—a place for the d;l:;cn to play, an extra | o Sheetrock comes h‘ d, non-warping mom,; unbe;u;ly 5 erected by your_carpenter., . decorstion; - is ideal for lining your basement or garage. 1o see a sample.
