Erection of a new building for the MeKinley Manual Training High School on T street northeast, on a site ad- Jacent to the new Langley School, was | urged in a resolution adopted by the North Washington Citizens' Association at a meecting last night at the United Brethren Church. Gen. Charles H.| Ourand. chairman of the school commit- tee of the association, author of the resolution, pointed out that a school on that site would be easier of access than if placed in the northwest the city, transportation to which, during rush hoyrs, he added. is already greatly congested. The assoclation also In- dorsed the teacher's salary bill and urged its adoption. Wine and Beer Vote Disapproved. | The association voted its disapproval of the scheme, proposed by F. R Haw- ley of Oregon, for a poll of ‘Washington on the question of light wines and beers. Washington Topham, author of the res- olution opposing the taking of the poll, sald such 2 vote would not be at all representative of the true feeling in Washington on the matter. Speeding on North Capitol street and 18t _street northwest was denounced by C. R. Brill, and the matter was referred to the committee on fire and police. Lo- cation of a new post office in the as- New Officers in Charge. New officers of the association, | headed by President Robert M. Yost, took office last night.

While his program seemed badly balanced, the audience! apparently enjoved his playing and called for two encores. The most satisfactory number was Marcello’s “Sonata in F Major,” which was thoroughly well played and_Inter- preted. The “Concerto in A Major” Tost a little in not having the orches- tra, but the piano part was well done by Mrs. Maas. The basso arioso was one of the least interesting of this composer's work. The Popper selec- tions could have been fewer in num ber, but. of course, they showed off the artist’s technique, and Mr. Maas was recalled for nis second encore at the end of the program. e LECTURE DEPICTS CITY. i¢ “Washington Beautiful” Illus- trated by C.

PLEA FOR CO-OPERATION Tells Takoma Park Citizens of De- fectives Needing Care—Associa- , tion Committees Announced. Urging the members of the Takoma Park Citizens' Assoclation to give their co-operation and support to the Juvenile Protective Association, Mrs. Edna K. Bushee, executive secretary of that organization, last night de- livered an address on the work of the association and its accomplishments. Mrs. Bushee, who has been engaged in welfare work of this character for the past nineteen years, told of the pro- cedure when cases are referred to the -association by the Juvenile Court and children are put on probation. In many instances, the speaker said, children often come to the_ associa- tion for protection and of 717 cases during the past year less than 3 per cent came into court. She spoke of | the necessity of proper home and com- munity environment and of treatment | of mentally and physically defective children. Occasfonally it is necessary to refer cases of small children to St Elizabeth's, due to the fact that there is no institution at the present time for feeble-minded children in the Dis- trict. Many Lack Recreation. Numerous children, Mr: said, are without ‘the proper recrea- tion and also without church connec tion. Last year she said the associa- tion secured three times as many con- nections with varfous churches than in the previous year. In this connec- tlon the churches had rendered valu- able ald, similar co-operation being glven by the various schools, thus keeping children out of the Juvenile Court and preventing thelr delinquency in attending school. She concluded by saying that the association was supported entirely by contributions s no appropriation was made by Con- gress for this work. The budget for but that this amount had not been | reached as yct.

Prohibition Commissioner Haynes yesterday issued a commendatory statement In connection with the death of Royal E. Wilbur, an attor- ney of the prohibition unit, who dled suddenly while attending services Sunday evening at the Bethany Baptist Church. “Mr. Wilbur,” sald the statement, ‘“has been in the employ of the gov- ernment since November, 1891, and was known to a great many not only in Washington, but throughout the country, because of his competency, alligence and aptitude for whatever task was assigned to him. Mr. Wil- bur rose from the position of clerk in the Treasury Department to that of senfor clerk in the office of the aommissioner of internal revenue. He was a graduate of Cornell, a law- yer by profession and considered by officials of the department as an au- thority on internal revenue laws, in- cluding those regarding prohibition, having been transferred to the pro- hibition unit at the very beginning of {ts organization in 1919, and as- signed the responsible task of re- Viewing all rulings iseued by the unit. “By the death of Mr. Wilbur, there has been removed from our employ ane of our most consclentious and capable workers.

By the Associated Press. LONDON, January 9.—Mrs. Edjth Thompson and Frederick Bywaters were cxecuted today for the murder of the woman's husband, Percy Thompson, on October 4, last. Bywaters was executed in Penton- ville prison at 9 o'clock. Mrs, Thomp- {son was hanged a few minutes later in Holloway jail. Bywaters, who made an eleventh hour attempt to save Mrs. Thompson by a “confession” met his death calmly, so far as reports indicated. Mrs. Thompson had to be carried to | the scaffold. She collapsed last even- ing and was in the care of physiclans | throughout the night. Both Protest Innocence. Both the condemned met death with | [vralesmnons of {nnocence. Bywaters {maintained that Mre. Thompson had| had no part in the killing of her hus- band and insisted that he had slain Thompson in self-defense.

When the authorities of both jails posted on the gates the brief official notice that the death sentence had been carried out, the spectators rushed forward {n such numbers that |the police found it difficult to main- tain order and were obliged to sum- mon reinforcements to -clear the | street.

Mrs. Thompeon, in the course of her last interview with her parents, brother and sister, sald: “I am prepared. 1 have nothing on my soul.” Bhe added that Bishop Step- ney, who visited her earlier in the night, had asked whether she had anything to confess, and that she had replied: “Nothing. I am innocent.” Bywaters was allowed to spend an hour and a half with his mother, who was overcome with grief. An organization calling itself “th: League of Christlan Intercession,’ announced late in the night that it had made a last unsuccessful petition to the king to reprieve the condemned. Notwithstanding the agitation against capital punishment which the cases have excited, none of the Lon- don newspapers except the socialist Herald raises {ts voice today in pro- test. Ramsey MacDonald, chairman of the labor party, in a communication to the Herald, ‘angrily declares the executions to be “an outrage to every sensibility which marks civilized be- ings from savages. Sensational Murder Case. The executions of Bywaters and Mrs. Thompson brought to an end one of England’s most sensational murder cases since the Crippen affair, and, Incidentally, provided the first In- stance of capital punishment of a woman in England for fifteen years. Percy Thompson, a shipping clerk, was stabbed to death in a dark street near his home in Ilford, a London suburb, early in the morning of Octo- ber 4, last. while returning from a theater with his wife. When found the body was propped against a wall, and his beautiful wife was kneeling nearby in a hysterical condition. Tpon the strength of her story to the police, Bywaters, twenty-year-old steamship steward, was arrested two days later and accused jointly with Mrs. Thompson of murder. An immediate sensation was caused when the police submitted at the first hearing an alleged confession, in which Bywaters appeared as declar- ing his love for Mrs. Thompson had |prompted the act. Letters Reveal Plot. Later a series of remarkable let- ters was prdduced in which Mrs. Thompson, addressing Bymaters In the most ¢ndearing terms, urged him to study the effect of various poisons on the human system and told of bungling several attempts on her husband’s life by introducing various substunces into his food.

It was shown during the trial that Bywaters had been a close friend of the Thompsons for some time. By- waters himself declared on the stand that he had seen Thompson strike his wife, and he pleaded that in attack- ing the husband he did not intend to kill, but to chastise him. He de- clared he was forced to slay in self- defense. The ecvidence sHowed that Bywaters and Mrs. Thompson had been together the afternoon before the attack. One Woman on Jury.
