24 - WHEELER DEFENDS CONSPIRAGY LAW Use of Indictments Against Prohibition Law Violators Cailed Necessary. “The objection of the senior United States circuit judges to the use of conspiracy charges in petty prohibi- tion cases is well founded, but im- portant cases involving more serious offenses, especially where the corrup- tion of public off is concerned, proper for conspiracy indict- ments,” declared Wayne B. Wheeler in an address before the quarterly convention of the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union of the District of Columbia in the Wallace Memorial Presbyterian Church 3 “The laxity of some dist who impose pet fines that equivalent to cheap bootleg licen compels the use of the cons law where other statutes might invoked,” continued Mr. Wheeler.

Stafford Pemberton, who has put on several interesting and ambitious dance < local theaters within the pa vears, attempt- ed something entirely new in the set- ting and type of recital offered by h dancers last t_in the open-air pavilion at Chevy Chase Lake. audience was large type of concert audience at all. In fact, the appeal of the fox-trot hall further up the hill seemed to have equal attraction for the patronage of & constantly shifting audience. Mr. Pemberton’s offering doubtless was Inspired by an innate sense of the artistic possibilities of nature, but the illusion of the artistic fell short. The dancers were at a disadvantage, first, because their stage was looked down upon by a too-close audience, and, secondly, because the strong lights and almost total lack of elusive draping made the performance appear more like a grotesque advertisement for lingerie than an achievement of art. Also, the jazz orchestra that at- tempted classical and semi-classics music seemed to feel the strain of the more complicated rhythms and “high- brow” music. As a dance recits was an excellent exhibition of models. Moreover, it might be suggested that not one of the dancers who tripped and posed at set ervals seemed to understand the fundamental principals of rhythm or to “feel” the pulse of the music at all. There was one really pretty dance, 2 modern burlesque on the old-fash-| foned minuet done by Nina Haynes and Walter Hebb in charming white oil cloth costumes. Even in this the | gestures were jeky and frequently seemed in opposition to the music's dictates. Dorothy Daye proved a fine little toedancer in the first dance. Reserve Officer on Duty. Col.

'HE immense improvement “Hires Turner Residential Glass” shows over common window ghu is so apparent that it is but natural to think it must cost a great deal more. But when told tha ‘‘Hires Turner Residential Glass” windows cost only a few hundred dollars for houses of the $30,0C0 type and less for smaller ones, there is first doubt, then surprise, followed by a fixed resolve to have “Residential Glass” windows at the first opportunity. “Hires Turner Residential Glass" is adding immensely to the beauty of moderate priced homes and to the com- fort of those who occupy them.

Blaze of Unknown Origin at Ryan Lumber Yard. Fire of unknown origin caused $2,000 damage at the H. L. Ryan lumber yard and stable, at Sixteenth street and Benning road northeast, yesterday. A stubborn blaze originated in the stable and threatened a $100,000 lumber supply in the yard. Horses had been turned out to graze in the adjoining pasture just before the fire and thereby escaped. Harness, feed and stable equipment were destroyed, loss being covered by insurance. Officials of the Ryan company con- gratulated the fire department for speedy and efficlent work, which they believe checked the fire before it reached ghe piles of lumber.
