" 'BRIGAND' IS TERM CALLED DUGE SLUR Roman Guide Says American Art Student Applied It to Premier Mussolini. By the Associated Press. ROME, May 3.—The testimony of the Roman guide, Astrologo, and two other witn s been presented to the atortney general in the case of John Adams Abbott of Boston, young art student, who last ‘week handed out a sound thrashing to Astrologo, and Is acused in addition of having made insulting remarks about Pre- mier Mussolini. All attemps to secure bail for Ab- bott have failed; and since he went outside of his hotel on a chailenge by Abe Martin Says: THE EVENING ' STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, MONDAY, MAY 3, 1926. £ SHAVRESENS 45 SEOUT LEADER | Executive of D. C. Council Forced by lll Health to Give Up Work. Resignation of Edward D. Shaw as | Scout executive of the District of Columbia Council of the Boy Scouts is announced at local Scout head- quarters in the Vermont building. Mr. Shaw's retirement, necessitated by 1l health, became effective yesterday. The resignation of this veteran in Scout work was accepted by the local | council “with keen regret” and “in the hope that he will regain his health and return to the Scout organization.” Mr. Shaw_came to Washington In 1918 from Philadelphia. At that time there were 893 Scouts in this juris- diction, whereas there are now 3,500. of a 1,000,000 or less population in number of troops, number of Scouts and lowest cost of administration per caplta. For two years prior to the war Washington had no Scout camps, but largely through the efforts of Mr. Shaw there have been made available two camps, which 1,400 boys attended last year. It was Mr. Shaw who prevailed upon Robert Brookings to give a d40.acre tract of land near Burnt Mills as a site for Camp Wil- son, Scout officials recalled. Mr. Shaw was the first executive in the country to establish a camp providing accommedations for boys in any stage of preparation for camp- ing out. This plan is followed out at Camp Roosevelt, on Chesapeake Bay. . Mr. Shaw will retain his interest in Scout work during his retirement, with a view later to renewing his activity when his condition permits. 100,000 CHRISTIAN WOMEN CALLED TURKISH SLAVES Bishop Manning Says Ratification of Lausanne Treaty Would As- sent to These Harems.

By the Associated Press. PARIS, May 3.—French people are complaining that their country is getting to be too much of a ‘“‘melting pot.” They feel that they are being overrun by foreigners, not those who come as tourists, but those whe come to settle. An example of the part this foreign element plays in general labor is given by the personnel of a cafe.restaurant, where the proprietor is the only rep- resentative of France. The cashier is a woman Turk, the two waiters are Spanish, the dishwasher is Hunga- rian and the cloakroom woman an Armenian. The orchestra is composed of a violinist who is Belgian, an Eng- lish pianist, a Polish saxophonist and a Martinique native for jazz effects. This restaurant is in a seaport of Brit.
