EVENING TAR, ‘WASHINGTON i FREDERICK RESTS EASY SINCE FRIETCHIE STORY SEEMS PROVEN Special Dispatch to The Star, FREDERICK, Md, January 25— After a week of fitful fever ) Fredérick sleeps well. She is no longer concerned with the controversy’ over Barbara Frietchle, and whether she waved the starty Union banner in the faces of Stonewall Jackson's bulls. She knows, and, with poise regained, is quiet. ¢ Students at Johns Hopking University, in Baltimore, a week ago declared pub- licly, with no regard for Frederick's sensitive feelings, that the John Green- leat Whittier poem, scintillant upon the pages of every fourth, or maybe fifth, reader in America’s schools, was false. There was no Barbara Frietchie, they stated with undergraduate abandon. That aroused Frederick, but authorities since have rushed to her ald. She is at peace. He who dosen’t know the Whittler poem can be only just from the “old country.’ Every " American parlor. every church, and every schoolroom has echoed the thrilling verses telling how an elderly lady of the old school dared to take the grim Stonewall in a breathless hurdle of patriotism: how, when Jackson and his troops marched through Frederick during the desparate 1860's, Mrs. Frietchie ran to her upstairs window and shook ~the Star Spangled Banner, saying “Fire whenever ready, Grid- ley,” ‘or words to that effect, “as long as mistreat your ruunt_r.'yt’ sacred and symbollic ‘em- blem;™ and how Jackson advised his soldiers that if any one harmed the brave and fair Frederickburger he should perish after the manner of the beagle. ‘“March on,” he said. Passed an History. _Naturally enough, the poem is Frederick’s second Bible. If Whittier had visited this city after penning it the chamber of commerce would have had him out to the country club for a banquet and the woman's club would have asked him to read l:':r l’h’e d}-{ud l’l‘: asked for the key: « they wouls Vi him the lock y i '\&’\e o For Afty years the poem has passed for history. But a w “go came John Hopkin students fresh from a coma of res h and saild Whittier could get space in the magazines as you don’t a versifier, but as @ historfan he neg- | lected to get any facts; that Barbara Frietchie was a bit of lavender and lace fluff, blown by the dlvine af- flatus from his fancy. Instantly the news came out Fred- erick wanted to Mer Rouge the Hop- kins boys. A blot was beginning to settle upon her fair escutcheon, She resented it. To her rescue came an ancient book dealer in Hartford. He de public a letter from Whittier, written in 1884, as if he knew some prankish collegians would some day reflect upon his name Was Ninety Years Old. Whittier's letter said there was a Barbara Frietchfe, ninety years old, when Jackson marched = through Frederick. He knew her relatives, he said. That seemed to end it all. He tailed to qualified as a chauffeur at the flag- staff. Now. W. C. Gompf of Hartford, Conp., whose sister knew Mri Frietchie., has written saying a Miss Quandrille waved the flag that day, Mrs. Frietchie being ill in bed. Of course, he went on to say, everybody knew 'Barbara suggested' it to the girl. “So,, then,” says Frederick, “it -is groven that Barbara Frietchie lived, and that she had something to do with the flag-waving ceremony. I am content. The next thing to happen. depend upon it, will be absolute proof that Mrs, Frietchie jumped from her death bed, ran to the front porch. seized the Star Spangled Banner, climbed three flights of stairs and from the third-story front window unfurled the flag to the breezes, sa: ing just what Whittier said she did Any how. says Frederick, soto voce, all the school readers say she did it, and_even Johns Hopkins University cannot cause a school book' revolu- tion, hard as times are - (Copyright, 1923) HUGE SUM TO OVERHAUL 13 WARSHIPS ASKED $6,500,000 Appropriation Proposed in Resolution by House Naval Committee Chairman.

POLAND ASKED TO STOP EXPULSION OF HEBREWS Request for Postponement of Order Is Handed to Minister ‘Here. A request that the Polish govern- ment postpone execution of a decree effective March 1 for expulsion from that country of 10,000 Ukralnian Jews who have taken refuge there during and since the war was pre- sented yesterday to the new Polish minister, Dr. Ladislas Wroblewski, by a delegation representing the Fed- eration of Ukrainian Jews. The delegation asked that the refu- gees be permitted to remain in Poland until they could obtain visas from consuls of other nations where they might be admitted, promising to pro- vide means for their care until they are able to leave Poland. It was urged that execution of the decree March 1 might force some of the refugees to return to Ukrainia and entail great hardship for them, and the minister was sald to have told the delegation | he would cable its petition to his gov- ernment. The delegation later called on Am- i bassador Le Breton of Argentina and asked him to urge upon his govern- ment that admission to his country of the Ukrainian refugees in Poland | be facilitated. He expressed sympathy 1 for the refugees and informed the delegation that visas were being granted freely to them by the Argen- tine consuls in Poland. HOLD ANNUAL DINNER.

Urging that the twenty-eight em- ployes of the bureau of engraving and printing, who were summarily dis- missed last year by executive order be now reinstated, Senator Caraway of Arkansas, democrat, yesterday in the Senate called attention to pub- lished reports stating that an investi- gation of these employes by Depart- ment of Justice officials had revealed nothing against them. Senator Caraway declared that if the dchievements of the Harding ad- ministration are not to be “pale and tarnished,” the President order these employes reinstated. He gald th President of the United States let the people know that he was willing to do justice to the humblest employe of the government. Senator Kimg of Utah, democrat, d. nouncing_the executive order which turned these employes out without giving them a hearing, declared that if such things were to continue, he believed the civil service commission and system should be abolished. “Why should we continue to make appropriations for the commission if tie civil service laws are to be fla- grantly violated?” he asked.
