LONDON, August 1 ().—Notwith standing that the financlal assistance {which the government is to give the mine owners will add, according to unofficial figures, something like {£10,000,000 to the country’s budget, there {s a great sense of rellef that a miners’ strike, affecting more than @ million men, has been prevented. Strike notices had been issued sev- eral days ago to take effect at mid- night last night, and the carrying out of the threat was averted only by the last-minute offer of the gov- ernment to give financlal atd to the mine owners to enable them to main- n the present wage scale. The agreement carrying the present scale of wages was to have expired at mid- night and it was a new agreement proposed by the mine owners to su- {persede it, with its clauses involving decreased ‘wages and a longer work- |ing day, that brought the strike | threat Miners Win Poini Under the arrangements made yes. s from Congress in time | . recelving s s they did under the ain in the pit | - of hours each day | The government wiil ictal help to the owners un- 1926, In any month the ald to the men in accordance recognized ratio of division ges and profits are lower strict than the wages payable minimum percentage under the agresrient the exchequer will make {up the defidlency.

At Dayton the cross carried the in- scription: “In Memory of the Great- est Klansman of Our Time; He Stood at Armageddon and Battled for the Lord.” i it “In memory of the Greatest Klans man.’ The Columbus meeting heard me- morial addresses after which a me- morial cross for Mr. Bryan was lighted. Similar services also were held at Cleveland, Findlay, Cincinnati and Portsmouth, at the conclusion of which crosses bearing appropriate in. scriptions to Mr. Bryan were lighted. Miami Tribute Paid. MIAMI, Fla., August 1 (®).—From the same platform in Royal Palm Park, where he had taught the world’s largest Sunday school classes, speak- ers yesterday eulogized the life of Wil- Nam Jennings Bryan, while his friends braved a downpour of rain in final tribute to their teacher and friend.

MARYLAND AUTHORITIES SEARCH FOR GAIR’S BODY Brother of Girl He Was ro Wed Is Aiding—Police Not Sure He Was Drowned. Searc the body of Julius J. Gadr, 9 Thirteenth street, be- lleved drowned in the Susquehanna near Havre de Grace, Md. s being centered today on the shore line where current and tide are expected to bring the corpse to a beach. This information came from county authorities in charge of the search, who added that the river at the trestle bridge point, where Galr's coat, vest and suicide note were found by a bridge tender Thursday, was too deep to permit dragging. Frank Snyder of 3064 M street, brother of Miss Jean Snyder, 23, who was to have married Gair, Labor day, left Wushington this morning for Havre de Grace to ald In the search Miss Snyder {s with her sister on va- cation in Atlantic City, and, according to her father, has received no word regarding the tragedy. Local police were told that the coat was found on the draw, midway be- tween Havre de Grace and Perryville, about one-half mile from either shore. It is said the bridge is guarded at each end to prevent pedestrians from tres- passing, and probably getting caught on the trestle by a train. There is no certainty that Gair drowned. Police learned of his love affair, and also that he had lost a con- siderable sum of money recently. It is realized by the police that Gair may have dropped the coat from a moving train. greatest victory ever won in this coun- try by trade union solidarity, there is angry resentment over what the Dally Mall calls a “victory for violence, a blockade of the nation by a little band of conspirators carrying out the or- ders of Zinoviev and imagining them- selves little Trotskys and Lenin: 222 THURSDAYS $16.80 *ono PROPORTIONATE FARK: LEAVES Tickets good for 1 of usual charges fo | At Toledo the cross had writien on | BPECIAL TRAIN THE IDEAL ROUTE TO NIAGARA FALLS, THROUGH BEAUTIFUL SUSQUEHA days, valld for use in rlor or sleepl: ‘space occupled, Including surcharges.

BRYAN'S MEMORY | Navy Air Service Demonstrates War Power in Hawaii Planes Are Landed on; End and Take Off From | Carrier Deck. tialities of naval aviation were demonstrated yesterday off Honolulu | by the alrcraft squadrons of the battle | fleet in maneuvers designed to e emplify the uses and various types of planes in simulated battle between the aircraft carrier Langley and the tender Gannett, which acted as the enemy.” One striking performance, details of hich were kept secret at the Navy's request, occurred when Lieuts. D. L. Conley and A. W. Gorton landed their planes on the deck of the Langley. Conley, flylng an observation plane, and Gorton, a combat machine, had previously taken off from the carrier. During gunfire on the Gannett by the Langley an observation plane cor. rected the range of fire with radio reports. The use of the Langley's elevator to holst planes to and from the deck was demonstrated as well as the assembling of a seaplane on the well deck. A seaplane was then hoisted overboard and Lieut. C. F. Harper took off from the sea and flew to Pearl Harbor.

SHIPPING LINE San Francisco Mayor, Representing Pacific Coast Group, Withdraws Previous Bids. A new offer has been received by the Shipping Board from Mayor Rolph of San Francisco for the Paclfic-Argen- tine-Brazil Line. His previous offers for that line and the Pacific-Austra- lan lines have been withdrawn. The amount of the new offer was with- held, but it was said that Mayor Rolph, | who is understood to represent a financial group on the Pacific coast, | now stands on a parity with other bidders for the line. So far three of- fers have been recetved, including one | by Swayne & Hoyt, present operators. Negotiations are to proceed on the new basis, but no decision is expected for some time. The offer just with- drawn was included in an option ob- tained last December and expiring by limitation yesterday. It was a tender of $17.50 per ton for the five vessels of the Pacific-Argentine-Brazil Line and $12.50 for the five of the Pacific- Australian Line, Under the new offer, service would be guaranteed as at present for five years. It was described as a “modi- fied” tender for the one line and as & definite cash proposition. While there was said to be no offers under _imme- diate consideration for the Pacific- Australian _Line, also operated Swayne & Holt, it was indicated that tenders for this service might be ex- pected 8001 NIAGARA FALLS EXCURSIONS A 6, 20, Septembe 5% and Oeigber 1" WASHINGTON S FROM OTHER POINTS Eastern_ tandard Time GIVING A DAYLIGHT RIDE VALLEY cars o t ning car atiached U.S. POLICY HELD CURB ON LEAGUE Aloofness Keeps Body From Fulfilling Own Destiny, In- stitute Is Told. By the Associated Press WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. August 1.—The Institute of Politice showed yesterday its reaction to the address outlining America’s forelgn policy, which Willlam R. Castle of, the State Department mades Thursday. On the pert of the League of Nations, repre sentative at the institute, Dr. Willlam E. Rappard, the response was partly one of gratification that this country was showing a new interest in the league and was willing to enter the Permanent Court of International Justice (under the Harding-Coolldge reservations). But America’s present aloofness, he asserted, was preventing the league from fulfilling its own destiny. Aloofness, Dr. Rappard believes, is not the way to to secure International peace. A _disinterested and fair treatment of international problems is the best and only way to attain the objects of peace. In America's detachment, due to her distance from the scene of Buropean problems, the League of Nations has found in the unofficial American representatives qualitfes which make for justice. If the United States had been represent- ed on the commission which dectded the status of the Saar Basin a fair solution would have been found, he sald. As it was the commission was predominantly French, and France got the Saar, an outcome which caused great bitterness on the part of the Germans and seemed to many impartial observers out of keeping with the spirit of the peace treaty, he explained. ‘Wishes for More Faith Ambassador Houghton once defined peace as an adventure in faith. We could wieh that America would show herself possibly a little more adven turous in this endeavor, and show a lttle more faith in what I venture to say 13 one of her greatest, noblest na. tional traditions, the bellef in the pacifying and constructive effect of international arbitration.’ Speaker Continues. | fully agree with Mr. Castle thut it is a great advantage that no de- cision of international importance can be taken without reference to the possible wishes of America, but where her fairness, disinterestedness and greatness could be most effectively applied surely Is not in the corridor. It is very well for all the powers of the council of the league to ask themselves what America thinks or might approve, but it would be better still if they knew.” The growth of the opium scourge in a new sphere demands Interna- tional action which the league m: as well ald in obtaining, Dr. Rap asserted in another lecture last nigl After pointing to the evils of oplum eating in Indlu and oplum smoking in the Far East, Dr. Rappard sald “The derivatives of oplum and of the coca leaf, chiefly morphine, herofn and cocaine, have given rise to what might be called a_universal mortal disease, from which, in this morbid, post-war world, no country and no social class can claim complete im- munity. In this, its third aspect, the drug_evil is peculiarly dangerous in its effects upon the minds, souls and bodles of its victims and peculiarly International in its ction Wants Curb on Drugs.

Ly the midst of the excitement over what is and what is not ‘“indecent music,” prohibited by & hidden phrase in the police regulations, comes the assertion by Sergt. Rhoda Milliken of the Woman's Bureau that “any music played on a saxophone is immoral.” Lieut. Mina Van Winkle today quoted the policewoman sergeant to that effect, indicating, withal, a tend- ency on her own part to concur in this opinion, with certain reservations. According to Mrs. Van Winkle, Miss Milliken believes that the haunting tunes of & “sax” in the hands of a jazzfingered vlayer is enough to wreak havoc with the most soul- inepiring thoughts extant Strong exception to this contention was taken today by Officer Clarence Talley of Chief Grant's detective of- fice, who announced several days ago through these columns his decision to take up the saxophons to quiet his nerves, Since the announcement, by the way, he bus been flooded wWith of- fers of free insruments and lessons by enterprising merchants. “The saxophone 18 elevating and re- spectable, if treated right. Miss Mil- liken is wrong. It is comforting to those who appreciate good music, and @s a sleuth soother I recommend it highly.” RAIL CHARGE ALLOWED. Cost of Loading and Unloading to Be Put on Shippers. Beginning September 1 railroads may impose a charge upon Shippers additional to the regular freight rate to cover the cost of loading or un- loading carload package freight at Chicago, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Buf- falo, KRochester. Troy and Green Island, Y. The Interstate Com- merce Commission so ruled yesterday, after keeping a railroad proposal to make such charge under investige- tion for a year. The commission held, however, that the proposed charge for the service, which was 25 cents per hundred pounds, was too large. Rallroads will be permitted to charge 1.5 cents when the work 1s performed at tram tracks and 2.5 cents only where the loading or unloading is at freight houses or warehouses. New schedules must be filed by rallroads to show exactly what charges they will make . | | during the World War. GORDON TO RETAIN U3, ATTORNEY POST President Gives Strong Evi- dence of Intention to Re- appoint Official. By 4 Staft Gorrespondent SWAMPSCOTT, Mass., August There is virtually no doubt that Maj. Peyton E. Gordon will be reappointed as United States attorney for the Dis- trict of Columbia. Although President Coolidge has not reached what he chooses to describe 8 a formal decision, he is well pleased with Maj. Gordon’s record, and while discussing the matter with frienda to- day he made it clear that he expects to reappoint him. He will reach a formul decision when the Department of Justice forwards its reports and recommendations in the matter. Maj. Gordon’s term expires very shortly. The President has reached no deci- sion about the appointment of & suc- cessor to the late Mrs. Helen Gard- ner as a member of the United States Ctvil Service Commission.
