The last words ever written by Abraham Lincoln, Mr. Daugherty said, were scribbled on the back of a call- ing card at 8:30 o'clodk on the night of April 14, 1865. George Ashmun was waliting in the White House lobby for an audience wh the President passed through on b v to join Mr=. Lincoln who was seated in the carriage 1o take them to Ford's Theater. Lin- coln asked Mr. Ashmun for his card and drawing a pencil from his pocket wrote: “Admit Mr. Ashmun and friends at 9 am. tomorrow. April 14, 1865 A. LINCOL: These papers with & number of others discovered in the files will be bramed for preservation as a part of the nation's collection of historical documents, and_ kept among the jarchives at the Library of Congress. The result of the investigation was the discovery of letters written by varfous early Presidents, several opintons by the first Attorney Gen- eral and other documents written on oddly shaped, torn and yellowed bits of paper. All of them hiave an inter- esting bearing on the early days of the American republic. Four opinions written by Gen. Randolph, who served from 1759 to 1784, bear the earliest dates, but others among the collec- tion perhaps exceed these in historic interest. i K Letter From Grant. Among these are: A letter from Prestdent Grant suggesting the dis- missal as “an unfit person for the position” of an assistant attorney general who written the Presi- dent direct regarding & minor civil war claim: memoranda prepardd by Thomas Jefferson after his two terms as Prestdent, advising President Madi #on to be cautious in employing sol- diers to eject intruders from Indian lands in Georgia; letters in the hand- writing of Hen John C.

TRAFFIC EXPERT URGES EDUCATION OF PUBLIC Only Solution of Street Accident Problem, C. W. Price Tells ‘Women's Club. Organization of a community edu- cational campalgn to develop & mew public sentiment and a new con- science with regard to safety is the ionly solution to the street accident problem, C. W. Price, safety expert. told members of the Women's City Club_at their luncheon yesterday afternoon. The success of Safety Washington, Mr. Price said. has demonstrated how the peopls of Washington can be reached and can be interested. Tie fundamental prin- ciples of the werk now being organ- }ized by the Washington Safety Cou cil for the continuous campaign are practically the same as those which proved so effective during Safety Iweek. The following, he pointed out, are some of the more important features ;of the continuous campaign: Safety week instruction in the &chools, safety | promoted through all the federal and | District departments, publi campaign, posters on the streets, on public vehicles and | throughout the government depart- ments: two schools for drivers, with 11,000 students; speakers' bureau, fur- | nishing speakers for citizens’ as { clations, women's clubs and other or- {ganizations; safety in _industrial plants, co-operation of the police, careful analysis of the causes of ac- ! orfients each month and the furnish- ing of this information to all public jand parochial school teachers and the | president of each club and organiza- tion. ““Phis community effort offers an {opportunity for the women's organi- izations to render a valuable service by making safety a vital part of their regular work. and especially direct- {ing their efforts to reaching the methers and securing their intelligent co-operation in instructing their chil- aren in safety,” he added \Let Stolen Roll Slip on Dice and Races, Is Plea By the Associated Press. BOSTQN, = February 17.—Paul Downey faced cross-exaniination in court today on his stery of win- ning $17,000 on horse races with funds stolen from a bank, only to lose it in a game with dice. Downey has confessed that he stole §127,000 from the Federal Trust Company, where he was em- ploved as a clerk. He is the prin- cipal witness against Robert. L. Finn and Humphrey Lane, book- makers, who are accused of con- spiring’ with him to. steal funds from the bauk. Downey testificd yesteraay that on some days he turned over much as $25.000 of the bank' ney to the bookmakers to cov gambling losses. Ono day he won $17.000 on a horse race. Then a game with dice proposed. At the outset Downcy won several hundred dollars. The dice were drepped. to the floor several times in“the ensumg play. Downey's obliging companions picked the up and handed to him what he supposed were the dice he had ‘dropped. continuous y
