* MISSHENDLEY S00 10 QUIT SCHOOLS Dr. Ballou Accepts With Re- gret Her Resignation as Supervising Principal. Miss Flora L. Hendley, supervising principal of the sixth division of the District public schools, who has given 43 years of an active life to the educa- n of the youth of the Nation's pital, will retire on September 15. The Board of Education, upon the recommendation of Supt. Frank W. Hlou, approved her request for re- ment at its last meeting with an expression of regret. Dr. Ballou Exprexses Regret. In submitting Miss Hendley's appli- cation for retirement to the school board, Dr. Ballou said he did so with eeling of the deepest regret.” After having given the matter much serious thought,” said the superintendent, “Miss Hendley deems t advisable to retire at this time, ithough her official associates had expressed the hope that she might tinue two years longer and thus round out 50 of continuous e in the Washington schools. < Hendley's voluntary retire- ose a long record of mieritorious service rendered in the public school irst as a teacher, then later as building prin- and division supervisor, Miss Hendley contributed richly of her vigorous life to the instruction of! youth and to the inspiration of teach- ers. For 16 years Miss Hendley has been a supervisory official. High pro- fessional fdeals and wise leadership, reinforced by a ripe experlence, gave her a weight of influcnce that has been of great value in our adminis- trative councils. Beginy Service in 1876, “In 1876 Miss Hendley was appoint- ed to a first grade in an old building that stood at the corner of Fifth and reets northwest. That was 43 Miss Hendley taught at school for three years, during which time she was advanced through the grades successively to the sixth grade. 1n 1SSl she was transferred to the Riggs School, where she taught | for nine years. In 1530 Miss Hendley was given the principalship of the Seaton School, where she served as principal for 18 years. Her promotion as supervising principal came in 1508, at which time Miss Hendley was as- sizned to the sixth division. She now retires after a period of 16 years as supervisor of tho schools in North- east Washington. “At this time of her retirement the teachers of Washington and her offi- cial associates are not forgetful of the part played by Miss Hendley in connection with the passage of the teachers' retirement act in 1320. For more than 10 years Miss Hendley labored unceasingly for the enact- ment of a law providing pensions for the teachers of the District of Co- lumbia. After many discouragements and setbacics that would have estop- ped a more timorous person than Miss Hendley and those who labored with her, they saw their efforts crowned with victory. Miss Hendley now has the satisfaction of retiring under the provision's of the act for which she gave o much of her thought, time &nd energy.” PERSHING’S SON SAILS TO STUDY IN ENGLAND Jackie Coogan Also Off to Europe to Distribute Food for Near East Relief.

FLYERS EXPECTED HERE TUESDAY ON REVISED SCHEDULE (Continued from First Page.) quest they sent out to other cities some time ago, that no entertainment which might demand too much of the fiyers' time and energy be attempted, they have worked out a program that will leave no room for the fiyers to doubt that the Government in whose name they have virtually circumnavi- gated the earth by air deeply appre- ciates the courageous triumph they have about achieved. Led by Brig. Gen. Mitchell, assist- ant chief of the Air Service, a flight of five planes will pick the world fiyers up over Baltimore and escort them to Washington. Once the Dis- trict line Is crossed, however, this es- cort will hurry direct to Bolling Field. Maj. Gen. Patrick, chief of the Air Service, and the other planes which will accompany the flyers from New York will also hurry ahead so that taey will be out of the way when the world squadron arrives. To Fly Over Arlington. Accompanied only by one or two airplones containing photographers, the world flyers will cut quickly across Washington to Arlington, where floral tributes will be dropped upon the grave of the Unknown Sol- dier. Returning, they will cross the Lincoln Memorial and continue on up the Mall to the Capitol, turning there and proceeding straight over Penn- sylvania avenue to the White House. From the Executive Mansion they will turn north and follew Conneeti cut avenue to the bridge, where the will cut across the park to Four- teenth street and dash across the bus- iness district to Bolling Field via Potomac Park. Officials to See Landing. At Bolling Field the whole world, it might well be said, will wait to shower its plaudits on the men who dared death and conquered it. In the small grandstand there, besides mem- bers of the cabinet, other high Gov- ernment officials, the highest officers of the Army, the Navy and the Ma- rine Corps, and possibly the Presi- dent himself, there will be repre- sentatives from every nation the avi- ators crossed on their historical jour- ney. Once the flvers drop to the field they will quickly taxi up its entire length and wheel to positions directly in front of the grandstand. Maj. Gen. trick will officially welcome the fiyers to Washington, and if the Sec- retary of War is there, he, too, may say something. At least his official representative will also welcome the aviators. Then the general public will be permitted to go out and ex- amine the planes, and, possibly, meet the flyers, too. Immediataly after a hurried luach- eon at Bolling Field, at which there will be nothing formal or official, the fiyers will be taken in automobiles, accompanied by a police escort, to the War Department. Secretary Weeks and Gen. Pershing will re- ceive thei rformal respects and it is hoped that President Coolidge, too. will receive the six men at the White House and personally wish them God speed on the rest of their journey. Will Be Chief's Guests. That night Lieut. Smith and his companions will be the guests of Gen. Patrick at dinner. It will be a purely unofficiai affair, conducted at the personal expense of the com- mander of the Air Service, and it will terminate early so the flyers can hurry | off to bed and get a good night's rest | for the next hop in the morning to Dayton, Ohio—their first real turn toward their goal on the far-off Pa- cific coast. The Army Alr Service particularly emphasized that everything possibl: will be done to insure every man, woman and child in Washington an | opportunity of seeing the fiyers when they arrive, while they are here and, | possibly, when they depart. Bolling Field will be open to the public the day of the arrival and plenty of! space has been provided for parking| automobiles. District policemen will augment military police for the occa- sion. The best route to the field by auto- | mobile s as follows: Over the Ana- costia Bridge to Nichols avenue; out Nichols avenus to the road leading to | the field, which will be plainly indi- | cated by signs appearing on the right-hand side of Nichols avenue, going out, about a mile the “Jacostia | side of the bridge. The road turns| to the right and traffic policemen ! will be on hand at the turn to direct those who become confused. It will not be possible to supply convey- ances to spectators who are obliged to use street cars and a walk of about a mile would be necessary.

Arnold of New Haven, Conn., at which city Lieut. Arnold was born on August 26, 1893, Wheri the United States entered the World War Lieut. Arnold enlisted in the Signal Corps, Aviation Section, where he quickly, showed such apti- tude that he was assigned to an early class at the Military School of Aero- nautics, Princeton University, where he received his ground instruction. After his graduation he was given elementary training in this country and was then sent ovérseas. Upon his arrival in France he was sent to the 3rd A. L ., a large aviation instruction center at Issoudon, where he was taught acrobatics and ad- vanced flying. He was found to be so proficient that he was retained at Issoudon as a flying instructor for later students. Finally, however, he managed to be Sent to the front with the 1st Ob- servation Squadron, which was more in_accordance with his wishes, He| served with this organization until | the close of the war, winning con- | siderable reputation in the zone | the advance. When the American forces entered the area of occupation Licut. Arnold moved up with the Ist Observation Squadron and remained until July, 1919, at which time he returned to the United States. Upon his arrival he was recommended for photographic work and was assigned for special training in the Air Service Photo- graphic School, from which he gradu- ated in 1922, Previous to his being ordered to Langley Field, where the world fiyers were training in navigation and be- coming familiar with the Douglas planes, Lieut. Arnold was stationed at Bolling eld, Anacostia, D. C. where he was known as a quiet, courageous and thoroughly dependa- ble, officer as well as & pilot of un- usual ability. He was named as an alternate pilot, but when the plans NEW HEARING DUE ONBREWER STORY House Committee to Hear Sensational Charges Made by Attorney. Sensational charges made by Charles B. Brewer, an attorney for- merly connected with the Depart- ment of Justice, regarding wholesale duplication of Government bonds In the United States Bureau of Engrav- ing and Printing, will be heard by the special House committee conduct- ing an investigation into the alleged disappearance and duplication of bonds, when it resumes hearings on September 15, according to present plans announced last night. Mr. Brewer claimed that he had been engaged by President Harding to represent him in making a secret and searching investigation of cor- rupt conditions at the Bureau of En- graving and Printing, and as a result of his report there was a wholesale dismissal by the President of those in charge of important branches of the work in the bureau. Shortly before Congress adjourned Representative Edward J. King of Illinois_conducted a group of mem- bers of Congress to a Washington bank, where Mr. Brewer displayed to them documents in a safe-deposit box which were claimed to substantiate claims. In response to an insistent demand, and statements on the floor of the House by several members that this scandal could not be “hushed up,” the rules committee granted a hear- ing and gave privileged considera- tion to a resolution which authorized a congressional investigation. Repre- sentative Louis T. McFadden of Penn- sylvania, is chairman of this investi- gating committee, which at several previous meetings have gone over some of the evidence submitted by Mr. Brewer and listened to a state- ment of the case by Representative King. U. S. STEEL MAY YIELD. CHICAGO, September 6.—Belief that the United States Steel Corporation would not appeal from the decision of the Federal Trade Commission or- dering abolished the “Pittsburgh plus® practice, was expressed today by B.

This is, of course, a technical designation inasmuch as Arnold is a qualified pilot and as such he has flown many of the long miles which the Douglas cruiser has covered. 1is flying time is about 1,500 hours, of which over 800 were made in cross- country work, 80 that he is eminently fitted to be a member of the illustri- ous team which has conquered the waste lands of the earth and is now heading home to victory.

ON PROGRAM FOR BIG PEACE PARLEY First Page.) and Wade, (Continued froi the history of arbitration proved in- disputably that compulsory arbitra- tion to succeed must be backed by force, because human society has never been able to rely solely on suasion for the protection of the lives and liberty of its citizens. The countries of Latin-America which took a prominent part in the discussion, all concurred on the ne- cessity of guarantees as a concomi- tant of arbitration. The resolution was adopted tonight after cloquent speeches by the Brit- ish and French. premiers. Mr. MacDonald said: “If this assembly could only be recorded in the pages of history as an assembly which for the time did not merely give lip service to peace, but brain service, it would be dis- tinguished above all gatherings of mankind that have met hitherto.” M. Herriot gave a message of hope, without being unduly optimistic con- cerning the great problem before the assembly. “Now begins the detailed study of the difficult questions which Premier MacDonald already has outlined,” said the French premier—“problems of mutual assistance and, above all, the great problem of international solidarity, and making that interna- tional solidarity a livieg thing. Let us have patience to make our way through the stage which must yet be crossed. The road is long, but we must traverse it arm-in-arm, as- sociating our efforts and our en- deavors.” After pledging the loyal co-opera- tion of the French delegation, M. Herriot declared his faith that with- in a few weeks the world would learn that the fifth assembly had marked a stage of decisive progress, bringing to fruition the work of so many cen- turies of suffering and endurance. Officials of the leagus explained tonight that all questions touching the revision of the obligatory clause of the World Court protocol. as well as the covenant clauses concerned with arbitration, will be handled by the first commission of the assembly. All questions relating to the convoca- tion of the next disarmament confer- ence, whieh is is hoped will be sum- moned within one year, and also the problem of framing the new pact of security and mutual assistance, will be treated by the third commission, known as the disarmament commis- sion. Some idea prevails of convoking an_extraordinary session of the as- sembly, if practical results cannot be achieved by the present session. How- ever, leading Frenchmen seem opti- mistic that the fifth assembly will be able to report projects which could be approved by the assembly and im- mediately forwarded to all the gov- ernments for action"by the national parliaments.

From there we went to the public park and received watches, the like of which I've never seen. Each watch had our initials engraved on the back and, well, here, take a look at it, will you? (It was a beauty.) , “Then they gave us each a_white 80ld mesh bag and a Paul Revere bowl (a large wide silver piece which, it s sald, is rapidly super- ceding the- loving cup) inscribed with. our names. “Following this they gave Wade the flag of the City of Boston and each pllot these silk American flags. And the mayor made a fine Speech urging more appropriations for avia- tion and boosting it with all his might. Again in the automobiles we were whisked back to the hotel where you ree us now.” Pass Cheering Throngs. Crowds had gathered as the time for their arrival at the Copley Plaza Hotel arrived. Through cheering throngs the pilots made their way to the entrance and found the corri dor or “alley” lined with enthusiastic admirers. "Each person -rushed to shake their hands and the expres- sions on the pilots' faces could be likened to the rcared schoolboy on Lis Friday afternoon recitation debut. These men who had fought through and conquered death again and again were frightened by the public who desired nothing more than to touch their greasy soiled garments. In thelr suite of rooms at least they found veritable tons of telegrams and letters. The outstanding one was from the Prince of Wales tending “my hearty congratulations.” Silence occasioned by the readings of the messages was broken occasionally by some &uch exclamations as Arnold uttered: “Well what do you know about that—here's one from an old professor of mine who used to take great pleasuro in bawling me out every day.” Arnold also received a very endearing message from Pris- cilla Dean, dated Hollywood. Smith Gives Up Reading. Tonight the name of Arnold's sweet- heart was in electric lights from a local theater—a mere ooincidence. Smith was swamped more than the rest. He finally had to glve up read- ing. Capt. “Billy” Streett, Gen. Patrick's aide, and Lieut. Lester J. Maitland, both of Washington, the latter aide to Dwight F. Davis, Assistant Secre- tary of War, and a few other officers were in the room along with your correspondent, the only newspaper man who was passed off before the guards as “Arnold’s cousin.” Maj. Dargue of the chief's office in Washington, the officer who taught Gen. Patrick how to fly, hurried up some sandwiches in answer to the general cry, “When do we eat,” and acted as waiter to the boys as they read their telegrams. They hustled together all the jewelry and valu- ables presented to them during the day and deposited them in the hotel safe. T have seen the fiyers on virtuaily every hop they made since leaving Brough, England, but never did their facés exhibit such happiness as today. But that radiant beam soon was dulled, if not killed. They were in- formed that Lieut. Alex Pearson, one of the best pllots in the Army, and a test pilot at McCook Field, Dayton, Ohio, was killed at Fairfield, Ohio, a few days ago in the Navy Curtiss racer which he was testing. To use the word “shocked” or “stunned” would not express the feelings of the pliots when they heard that Alex, with few peers as a pilot and none as a gentleman and friend, had passed on. ‘Was to Have Raced. Alex was to have flown in the Pulitzer races this year, having been forced out last vear at St. Louis shortly after taking off, due to a sprung crankshaft. Then Lester Mait- land, Bolling Field's crack pilot. who carried Assistant Secretary Davis in a formation of 12 planes up to Old Orchard, Mec., landed on the beach and then returned to Boston—who was in the final few in the process of elimi- nation to select the world flyers— walked up to Wade of Bolling Field and said: “Leigh, on behalf of the bovs at old Bolling I want to tell you we are proud of, you and we think you are wonderful.” Wade blushed, swept the compli- ment aside ard replied: “How is the old lousy bunch there.

Gen. Patrick was in the bunch, and after the three seaplanes passed over the De Havilands again took the air and followed the world flyers into Boston. When Erik Nelson came ashore almost the first person to greet him was Gunnar Nelson, his brother, who had been flown up to Boston from Dayton by Capt. Louis G. Meister of McCook Field. Among the select few who were admitted to the suite of the tired fiyers was Maj. A. Stuart Maclaren and his colleagues, Lieut. W. N. Plenderlieth and Sergt. R. H. An- drews, the Britishers who were in the “race around the world” a short time ago which has been won by American airmanship and atrplanes.

She will do the work all right and carry me through, I abso- lutely know.” Smith asked me to tell the readers of The Star of his deep appreciation for the services rendered by the Navy on the sixth division flight His ex- pressions were sincere and from his heart. He is grateful, if any man is, and he doesn't know how to express it. “You know and saw what they did for us,” he said. “Where would we have been without the good old Richmond, the Billingsley, the Reid, the Raleigh, the Barry, the waukee and those destroyers that lined up like a company of infantry across the Atlantic between Green- land and Labrador—I know them y heart and their stations—the Coghlan, the McFarland, Charles Ausburne and Lawrence?

A truck went to the navy yard this morning and took off the ship all the belong- ings of the pilots and carried them ‘way out to the airport instead of the hotel. Arnold’s boots and uniform, as well as Smith's uniform, were in a big black suit case which it was be- lieved had become lost. He finally located it, however, at the airport. After a round of conversation with a few peérsonal friends, the pilots dined in their suite with Gen. Patrick and Mr. Davis and later held a con- ference with newspaper men.

It will have to travel direct from the mouth to the upper section of the small in- testine, where the digestive process will begin. The operation was per- formed by Dr. Karl Myer. Bittner, a musician, was supposed to be suffering from ulcer of the stomach, but on the operating table it was found that cancer had de- veloped. Dr. Myer removed the stomach at once, tied up the first portion of the duodenum and sewed the jejunum to the esophagus.

It gives the convenience of city gas half the cost. It can be put into any stove in a few minutes, and gives a tremendous heat, controlied by a simple valve. The present low price of oil makes it a great money saver. The manufacturers offer to send this remarkable invention on 30 days’ trial to any reader of this paper. They are just now making a special low price offer. They also want agents. Write them today.—Advertisement.
