TURN 7O SOUTH Latin America, Once Weakly Linked to U. S., Now Served by “A. P.” By the Ascociated Press. NEW YORK, April 2 ‘The pre- ponderant current of world news has | moved for centuries, like the course of empire, from east to west, but in | recent. years it has taken a new di- { rection"—from north to south—-to the i's new empire, South America.” phenomenon in the movement of news was described in a radio address last night from WJZ by Mer- | edith N, Stiles, in telling how news is sent to South American newspa- | pers by the Assdciated Press. Mr. | Stiles is the head of its Latin Amer- { ican department. { “It was not until after the war | that this flow of news southward { became important,” he said. “With | their peoples profoundly stirred I |its outbreak, South American news- | vapers found their facilities Inade- | quate to meet the demand for infor- | mation about it. By makeshifts and | at heavy cost they got the news from |one source or another, but when | the war was over they cast around | for more efficlent means of obtain- | ing world news. Latin Papers Admitted. “This is why the Associated Press since 1919 has maintained a large {news service to the South American | countries. The Associated Press re- |sponded to their need, and a group of South American newspapers were ad- tted to membership in its co-ope; ¢ organization. As a consequence, e newspapers are now receiving jdaily throuzh the Assoclated Press cnough nmews to fill two newspaper {puges, providing them with a compre. {hensive report of important and in- teresting events in all parts of the | world. L “It is nothing in these days that | Buenos _ Aires, capital of Argentina, {where the farthest south newspapers {are served, is 6,000 miles farther from the sources of world news than is New | York. Ordinary news dispatches make |the journey from the New York office he Associated Press to newspaper {offices in Buenos Aires in from one {to two hours over the lines of the All- { American Cables. What we call in {newspaper parlance ‘bulletins,’ telling { of highly fmportant or sensational oc- |currences. will be delivered in Buenos | Aires in from 5 to 15 minutes. |” “When Luis Angel Firpo and Jack | Dempsey had their little affair at the | Polo Grounds three years ago, an | excited mob that had ga hered that { night in front of the bulletin board | of the newspaper La Nacion of Buenos Aires, learned within two minutes after the blow was delivered that their pugilistic idol had knocked the Yankee champion completely out of the ring. The message which spelled to the Argentines the hope that Dempsey was done for and Firpo champion of the world, was flashed by an Asso- 1 Press telegraph operator at the de to the New York office of the Al America Cables over a special wire and instantly speeded on its 6,000-mile cable journey to the bottom side of the globe. ‘Firpe knocks Dempsey through ropes,” it read. Relayed Over Andes. “The electric current carried it out under the gulf stream and down along the Atlantic Coast and across the Caribbean Seat to Balboa. Here it { jumped the Isthmus of Panama into the Pacific. and then, coursing under ihe Humboldt current, but darting nd then to the South American as it followed its submarine it reached Valparaiso, the + principal seaport of Chile. Here it leaped by automatic relay to a land line which sipped it aloft 12,000 feet over the top of the Andes. thence down to the Argentine pampas and across them a thousand miles to Buenos Aires, where from the cable oflice there it was flashed by another special wire into the office of the La Nacion. A man with a megaphone did e rest. “The mighty uproar of shouts and cheers that followed that thrilling inci- | dent in the New York stadium had | not reached its crescendo before an- other uproar *burst forth from the Coast rductor, 11| thousands who on that night’ packed | the streets of Buenos Aires waiting | for the Associated Press to tell them | how fared the fight for the wbrld’s | championship.” Tndeed it might be said that all South America joined in the shouting, for that message in |its journey was copied and delivered 10 newspapers wherever the cable touches the coast as it loops its way to Valparaiso, in Panama, Co- cuador, Peru, Bolivia and om Buenos Aires it was re- i s thus that the news of the ted Press is delivered in South Spanish-language papers in Porto Rico are also served by this ame cable. Cuban papers and Mex- ican papers are served by telegraph, while in the far off Philippines Span- ish and English language papers are flashed the news through the air from the Associated Press office in San IFrancisco. “In all, 40 of the leading newspapers of Latin America learn what is go- ing on in the rest of the world through the Assoctated Press.” e DEBS CALLED CITIZEN. Berger Tells of Protest Letters in Government Rap. Failure of the Government to re- store the citizenship rights of Eugene V. Debs after his release from Atlanta penitentiary was assailed in the House vesterday by Representative Berger, Socialist, Wisconsin, as a disgrace to { the country. Replying to charges that the imml- gration committee had failed to act on the Berger resolution to restore | these rights, Chairman Johnson of the committee said Debs should ap- peal to the executive department. Letters of protest are pouring in from Socialist papers to his commit- | tee. Mr. Johnson said, denying that the committee had any jurisdiction over the matter and insisting that Debs is a cltizen. 1 If I were a janitor 1 would certainly own a good flashlight.

K. for Having Police Relax in Enforcing Minor Rules. With Traffic Director dridge and Chief of Police dwin B. Hesse endeavoring to decide if the District’s traffic code contains any superfluous regulations which might be eliminated withou¢ jeopardizing the lives of motorists and pedestrians, report originated today at the Distri Building that Maj. Hesse would seei the sanction of the Commissioners to have the police relax somewha: in the rigid enforcement of minor traflic regulations. The primary purpose of the Com- missioners in secking a reduction in the traffic regulations is to cut down the arrests of motorists which have been made at an unprecedented rate since January 1. Since two of the regulations responsible for a large majority of the traffic violations are not likely to be stricken out of the traffic code, Maj. Hesse is said to be of the opinion that he could call upon the police to use more discretion in making arrests and thereby cut down the total considerably. The .Com- missioners, however, it was said, must first give their approval to such a M. 0. El Hesse and Mr. Eldridge plan to submit their recommendations on abolishing the unnecessary regul: tions to the Comm oners tomorrow morning at_the semi-weekly board meeting. These officers have held several conferences since their last discussion of the traffic arrests situ ation with the Commissioners Tues- | day, at which they were indtructed to correlate their then divergent ideas as how best to cut down the ever-in creasing number of traffic arrests, Neither would intimate what the joint ort would contain, but M: Hesse has been insistent that the lifting of the present restriction on parking during rush hours on F and G streets would materially reduce traffic rests.

Mrs. Maran Wiggs, 31, of 2107 I street, was taken to the hospital last| night after having swallowed poison tablets.

A new trlo organized to interpret | the best and the unusual in chamber | musie gave its initial program at the | King-Smith studios last night before | a large audience which included many | musicians keenly interested in this |type of intimate music. This new trio | is composed of 1lelen Ware, violinist Margaret Day, ‘cellist, and Eugenia Cherniafskaya, planist. Miss Ware | came to Washington a couple of years ago and decided to make her home here after much concert work on tour. Miss Day is a young Washing- toniin who has been absent from her home town for several years, study- ing in Berlin and in Italy, only re turning to Washington comparatively recently to take her place here in professional music circles. Her sure ness of bowing and mellow torie show thorough training and ability. Misy Cherniafsk: also lives in Washing- | ton, but has not been heard in public | programs able talent, with individual touch that | should prove interesting in recitals, perhaps of the moderns. The greatest point of significance about this trio is_the fact that they are essentially of Washington and at tempting work of the caliber that is usually expected of professional visit ors, such as the Flonzaleys and the Tondon String Quartet. Such a group | with the musicianly feeling and sense of interpretation that this trio seem to possess deserves the heartiest wel- come and finest encouragement that Washington music lovers can give. It is another sincere music effort estab- lished within the city rather than brought here from outside music cen- ters. Last mght, in spite of the fiickle changes in the weather, the stringed instruments and piano found many moments of real beauty in blended tones throughout the program The feature of the selections played was a group of three nocturnes by irnest Bloch, one of the most inter- sting and® individual of the present - modern composers. This was said {to be the first time these nocturnes | were played in Washington. They | seemed well worth listening to. The | first, “Andante,” held all the plaintive {ness and rambling uncertainty of a Spring night’s mood. There were musical up and down the plano sensuousness from the 'c violin’s _cooler tones casual lighness of a its passages.

Burleith Citizens' Association petitioned tHe Public Utilities Commission to extend the downtown terminus of the Burleith bus line of the Washington Rail and Electric Co. from Tenth and E streets to the Union Station. James A.
