WASHINGTON, 3 R Paris Dance Hall Has Time-Beater To Control Music '! the PARIS, May 29.—-Even Jazz has to watch its step now. A Paris dance hall has introduced an odd instrument to beat time mechani- cally for the orchestra and indicate the number of beats per minute of the music on a great dial resem- bling a clock face. The dial placed on the orchestra stand and visible at the same time to dancers and musiclans, is elec- trically controlled by the orchestra leader. When the tempo gets too fast, the dancers protest and the leader moves a little switch until the’ mechanism beats time to suit the couples on the floor. At the same time the indicator registers the change by a needle on the dial. CHARGES AGAINST CREW OF SHIP HELD BASELESS Lack of Discipline When Vessel Was Damaged Not Found Upon TU. 8. Inquiry. By the Assoclated Press. Charges of mismanagement of offi- cers and members of the crew of the Clyde steamer Seneca when she sprung a leak off Miami, May 15, have been declared unlubltl.ntmed after an Investigation in New York by representatives of the Commerce Department. The incident, which necessitated the removal of passengers from the liner, resulted in charges being made by some of the passengers that officers and members of the crew showed a lack of discipline in handling the situation. The steamboat inspection service was advised yesterday that the in- vestigation had developed no testi- mony to substantiate any allegations of mismanagement. “To the contrary,” the message said, “the evidence showed that the behavior of the officers and crew on the occasion was all that could be desired.” —— BRITISH OFFICER ON TOUR Wil Visit Proving Ground, Bureau of Standards and Motor Plant.

By the Associated Press. NASHVILLE, Tenn., May 29.— Clarence Durrow, one of the first ar- rivals of Prof. John T. Scopes’ de- fense counsel to participate in argu- ments in the hearing of the evolution case befors the Supreme Court next Monday, considers the Tennessee anti-evolution law ‘‘not a statute reg- ulating schools. It is a plain criminal ;atute. It ought to apply to every- 1y Some of the points on which the act should be declared unconstitutional, according to Mr. Darrow’s view, are: That the body of the act does not follow the title; that it gives prefer- ence to religious doctrine; that the .|statute creates arbitrary clauses of distinction; that it violates the funda- mental right of world’s freedom; that it is void because of uncertainty, and that the indictment of Prof. Scopes, convicted for teaching evolution con- trary to the State statute, is bad in that it doesn't state what the of- lenno 1 Darrow declared that the amicus curiae brief filed by the Tenpessee my_of Science was “as gne a brief as I have ever seen.

FLORIDA STARTS SUIT ON INHERITANCE TAX Notice Filed in Supreme Court That Constitutionality of Pol- icy Will Be Tested By the Assoclated Press. Florida which has no State inherit- ance tax, formally gave notice in the Supreme Court yesterday that she would challenge the new Federal policy of remitting to States which have such levies a part of the inherit- ance taxes imposed by the new Fed- eral revenue act. Attorney General Johnson, under in- structions of Gov. Martin, notified the Court that he would ask, probably next Tuesday, for permission to file an injunction suit against Secretary Mel- lon, eharging unconstitutional dis- criminatior against Florida as well as against Alabama and Nevada, which also have no State inheritance lev'es. A number of citizens of Flrida have died since the Federal act pamed, the petition asserts, leaving estates subject to taxation under the Federal law. The effect will be to take Sev- eral million dollars out of the State each year, Florida argues, thus dimin- ishing material sources which it could use in raising revenue. The Federal law is described by Florida as invasion of its sovereign rights and an effort on the part of Congress to coerce the State into im- posing estate or inheritance taxes.
