J. H. s and ALEXANDRIA. ALEXANDRIA, Va., March 20 (Special)—A special commlittee of the Chamber of Commerce at its ann meeting last night reported adversely on a movement launched for free public school books. In- stead of favoring this it asked more adequate building space for the &chooling of children, rather than divert any part of the funds to free books. Howard T. Colvin of the Alexandria Trade Council, after hearing this and nine other recom- mendations, moved that the report of the committee be adopted without that part relating to free books, and his motion carried. The matter of zetting free hooks will be taken up v the speclal committee for more ata and Mr. Colvin will confer with Other recommendations for ar's activitles adopted include of committee to confer on v extension: securing of addi- tional scoutmasters as neded; to sponsor patriotic meetings and co- operate; that chamber continue work of marking historical places; to en- courage State organizations to meet here; the chamber acknowledges with gratification proposed building of a Moose home here: that the cham- her take the initiative in cleaning water front and the dock at foot of King street; urging all-night telegraph service; establishment of one or more public parks be the objective this vear.

Mrs. Frost at- tributes no small part of the success of the contest so far to the co-opera- tion of Miss Grady in advising pupils on the selection of material and sub. and in providing them with the ded reference matter. About half the contestants, Mrs. Frost reports, have settled upon the general subject of the Constitution, about one-fourth upon the biographical phase of the subjects and a like proportion on the new subject this year, ‘“America’s Contribution to Constitutional Govern- ment." The contestants are reported to be about equally divided among the boys and girls. Credits {n school work are accorded the contest in both the departments of English and public speaking. A prominent factor in the general success of the contest in this school is the whole-hearted indorsement of the undertaking by Prof. Danlel, the principal. Two potent influences of particular benefit are to be noted as incidents to the contest, in the opin- ion of Prof. Danlel. Advantages Cited. ‘o may quote me as enthusias. tically indorsing the oratorical con- test for its peculiarly beneficial in- fluence at this time in creating and necreasing interest in a study and knowledge of the Constitution of our country and of our underlying prin- ciples of our great Government.,” he sald. “This advantage In itself would fully justify the contest, but there is another main reason for its support, and that lles in the most valuable ex- perience gained by high school boys and girls in the art of expressing themselves on their feet. It is prov- ing more than ever a valuable ad- junect to our general school work, and particularly to our public-speaking department. 1 am glad to mote that there is more interest in the contest in this school this year than formerly. as evidenced by a large number and an improved class of contestants.” The McKinley faculty committee includes, in addition to Mrs. Frost, chairman, Miss Marion Clark of the history department, Mrs. M.

L BALLET DESIGNER GIVEN RIGHTS OF AUTHORSHIP Has Same Control Over Work as Writer or Dramatist, French Court Decrees. By the Associated Press. PARIS, March 20.—The French courts have upheld the rights of the designer of a ballet as being just as valid as an author’s over his book or a dramatist's over his play. The question arose through an ac- tion brought by a mistress of ballet, Mme. Chasles of the State Conserva- tory, who has produced ballets at the opera and the Opera Comique. She had been asked to give a ballet at an entertainment and she arranged the “Ballet of the Three Sultanas,” with Mme. Olga Soutzo as premiere dan- geuse. She was greatly surprised, she said, when Mlle. Soutzo changed the dance entirely from what had been rehearsed, and she brought an action for 20,000 francs damages, as the bal. let had been announced in the pro- gram as arranged by her. Mille. Soutzo pleaded that a first dancer in a ballet had the right to {nterpret a dance as it appealed to her and was not obliged to keep to the exact steps laid down by the ballet mistress. She offered to reproduce on a table in the court the dance as she gave it and as the ballet mistress had directed, but the court ruled that that was not necessary. The judgment handed down recog- nized the rights of ballet mistress and author in principle by awarding her one franc damages. — There are now nearly 300,000 pro- ducing oil wells in the United States. sence and | McKINLEY HIGH ORATORY COMMITTEE s Marion Clark, Albert Pi Lower, left to richt—Edward Lockwood, Miss Sarah T Frank C.

The program for developing the road calls for a uniform width be- tween the building lines of 121 feet. Over the conduit proper, which ix 9 feet wide, the plan proposes to put a center parking 19 feet wide, 9 feet covering the conduit and 5 feet on either side for necessary protection. On either side of this parking it is planned to have 21-foot roadways. Outside of these would be the usu tree space and sidewalk and the cus- tomary front vard space. The road development project also has met another obstacle in the form of conflicting regulations between the Federal and District governments concerning the dimming of automo- bile lights. Restriction by Congress. An act of Congress specifically ap- plying to Conduit road requires auto- mobile lights to be dimmed when meeting other vehicles. This is for- bidden in the District traffic code. which requires that headlights be ad- justed to throw their bright beams on the road and that they be not dim med except on well lighted streets or on topping hillcrests. Corporation Counsel Fr: Stephens has been asked by District officials to give an opinion as to whether the bill providing for the turning over of the road to the Dis- trict should contain a specific repeal of the act applying to dimmed lights, or whether the blanket power of the traffic director and the Commission- ers to promulgate traffic rules for District streets is sufficient. HOLY LAND ARAB EX-AUTO MECHANIC An Arab, living in an old crusader castle, who had helped to make auto- mobiles in a Detroit factory—such was one of the incongruities of the Holy Land found by Willlam H. Hall, Amer- ican educator, in his ramblings among the strongholds of the old Christlan knights. He described his travels last night before members of the National Geographic Soclety in an address at the Masonic Temple. The castle was that of Kalat el Husn, dominating a pass in the mountains of Lebanon. It s the best preserved of the old for- tresses and is now owned by an Arab bey, whose retainers live In structures along the ancient walls. Others castles of the crusaders de- scribed and pictured by Prof. Hall were along the seacoast. These were built by the Knights Templar, while the mountain strongholds were erect- ed by the Hospitalers, the Knights of St. John. The French mandate over Syria had its roots in the crusades, Prof. Hall declared. The country has few re- sources and no raw materials of con- sequence, nor does it dominate any important trade route. H. | | | | KNICKERS GET WORSE. “Plus Are Now “Plus Fives" and Socks Are Riotous.

SYMPATHY IS VOTED PRESIDENT COOLIDGE | Resolutions of Regret on Death of His Father Adopted by So- ciety of Natives. The Soclety of Natives of the Dis- trict of Columbia, meeting in the \Vashington Club last night, adopted a resolution of condolence to be sent to President Coolidge and expressed deep regret at the death of his father, Col. John C. Coolidge. “The resolution read, in part: “We have learned with profound regret of the death yesterday at his home in Plymouth, ~ Vt., of Col. John C. Coolidge, 'father of the FPresident. Calvin Coolidge, and we hasten fo express to the President our sincere sympathy on the unfortunate death of his father and assure him that our society keenly feels with him his most unfortunate loss.” The resolution was drafted by John Clagett Proctor, historfan and former | president of the society. In view of a discussion at a former meeting regarding the exact details surrounding the surrender of Gen. Robert E. Lee to Gen. U. §. Grant at Appomattox, Mr. Proctor read ex- tracts from Gen.

Whenever he approaches the cages, he is greeted with signs of affection by the beasts.
