High x rs in the third annual national oratorical contest, held in Washington on June 4. as The S entrant, today was designated as one of the two official speakers for the group of seven young ators on their two-and-one-half- month tour of 10 foreign countries, which starts this afternoon at 5| o'clock. Herbert E. Wenig of Holly- wood, Calif., who was selected as the national champion, will be the other speaker. In announcing the selection of Miss Tosey for this outstanding honor of international significance Randolph Leigh, contest director, who will ac- company them on their tour, stated ton finals Mr. Leigh ex- | plained, planned to permit | only Wenig to speak in the capitals and principal cities of the foreign countries we will visit, but inasmuch as four of the seven orators are young women we decided that our audiences averseas would appreciate a sample of America’s feminine oratorical ability, and I am confident Miss Posey will carry off this difficwdt assignment ad- mirably.” Admitting they spent practically case, and La Follette, at 31, Lone Member Younger Than He.

The seventh member of the party is Jose Munos Cota, 18-year-old na- tional champion of Mexico, and one | of the group who will compete with | Wenig, the United States champion | in the international finals, to be held | in_Washington on October 15. Due to the illness of his widowed mother, Joseph Mullarky of Augusta, | Ga., who made such ‘an excellent | showing in the national finals, is being | | | compelled to sacrifice the tour.

It was found that Wenig was awarded the coverted hero's medal by the Breakfast Club of Los Angeles, an honor which has been conferred only six times before. Among the few who have Wwo are S y Charley Paddo and Bill Tilden. The action of the club shows the high rating of the oratorical cham- plonship in their eves. Clery told his fellow orators that because of his showing in the contest he had been glven a gold medal by his school &nd a four-vear scholarship to college. Other Champions Coming. When the young people complete their European tour and are ready to sail back home on September 3 they wil be joined by the national oratorical champions of France and England. When they land at Mon- treal they will pick up the Canada champion, all of whom will be in the first international contest in Wash- ington. “Each member of the party will carry a letter personally signed by of the American Ambassadors to the of the Ameri Ambessadors’ of the countries they will visit. These let- ters will guarantee to them special courtesies and are in addition to their passport booklets.

The resolution charged that the Na- tional Woman's Party, which is com- posed of professional and semi-pro- fessional women, was not capable of representing the views of the work- ing women. It was presented by Miss Agnes Nestor, Chicago, a member of the International Glove Workers' Union.

BY ROBERT T. SMALL. The United States Senate is not to lose one of its real “babies” aftar all. Senator Gerald P. Nye of North Da- kota is coming back to Washington or a long time to continue to rank as the second youngest man in the body. Young “Fighting Bob” La Fol- lette is the only ‘“elder statesman’ wha is younger than Nye. Bob is 31 and Gerald 33. Bob barely got under the barrier when he was elected last year. The Constitution provides, without question, that a Senator must be 30 years of age. Bob was 30. You can go to the House of Rep- resentatives at 25, if you have any particular desire in that direction. The Senate is more august and sedate. Once it was called the “gréatest de- liberative body in the world.” To make it that the fathers of the coun- try wisely decreed that a man must come to 30 years before being eligible to take his place in the seats of the mighty. In order to become a Senator you must either be a natural-born citizen |of America or have been naturalized for a period of nine years. Natural- ized citizens can go to the House after seven years of citizenship. It is easy to see that great safeguards have been placed about the Senate. Whether or not the Senate has lived | up to the great things expected of it by the fathers and the framers of the Constitution, will probably for- ever remain a matter of opinion. Some say it has; some y it hasn’t. Some say this latter-day Senate would make the fathers turn over in their graves. Others say it is nearer to the people than at any other time in Amerlcan history and therefore is a new symbol of the greater democ- racy. All evidence points in the di- rection of the fathers having tried to keep the Senate just a bit separat- ed from the people. But a new gen- eration, wiser in its time, or think- at any rate, devised the “popular” election of Senators and also invented the party primary. Just now both phases of this latter. day wisdom are getting what might be called a buggy ride. Bratton Only 37. However, all of this has nothing to do with Senator Gerald being the second junior elder. After him and Bob comes Sam Bratton of New Mexico in the race for youthful honors. Sam has just turned 37. After Sam comes Clarence Dill of Washington, who first saw the light of day in 1884. Ranking fifth in_the Senate on the side of youth is Burt Wheeler of Montana. Burt has caused so much trouble since he has been in the Senate it seems impossible” to think of him as being only 44. Some Senators of 60 and over haven't stirred up nearly so many ructions. Burt has been prosecuted, but he al- ways comes out on top, stronger than ever, and a couple of years ago his name was on every tongue. Other in- vestigators have arisen since then to take his place in the limelight, but Burt will come back again even in this respect. Probably right now he is thinking up some new investigation to 'spring on an unsuspecting public. Pat Harrison of Mississippi _is another youngster. But it seems Pat 'med, ace*cl1 n amummy buried near THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., Shechem. + Pharao ren of Israel because prospered and.

He has been prominent so long, has been so much the spokesman of his downtrodden party and has had so much of a hand in the national con- ventions of the past few vears. Pat, it would seem, ought to be older than 45, but he isn't, and, like a gentle- man for whom a famous distillation was named in Scotland, he expects to be going strong for years and years to come. Several elder statesmen are Wwith Pat at 45. The crop includes Arthur Robinson, youthful playmate of Jim Watson from Indiana; Henrik Ship- stead, of Minnesota, and Farle May- field of Texas. David Reed of Pennsylvania, for- tunate enough to be elected from the Keystone State before three-million- dollar primaries became the rage, will be 46 pretty soon and also ranks among the Senate youngsters. At least onehalf of the United States Senators were born in the turbulent 60s. Some go back to the 50s, while a score were born in the 708, Some Benators are sensitive—or at least it would seem so. Sensitive about their age, that is to say. They claim the feminine prerogative, ap- parently, of letting it be known that they are over 30, and therefore eli- gible, and vouchsafe no more. In the Congressional Directory every Senator and every Representa- tive is supposed to write his or her own biographical sketch, and to tell the truth, and nothing but the truth. Eleven Withhold Age. There are at least 11 modest elder statesmen who refrain from stating their age. It seems a shame to “peach” on them, but here they are: T. Coleman du Pont of Delaware, Trammell of Florida, McKinley, late- ly defeated in Illinols; Schall, the blind Senator from Minnesota; Howell of Nebraska, Fess of Ohlo, Smith of South Carolina, Caraway of Arkansas, McKellar of Tennessee, King of Utah and Goff of West Virginia. In most of these cases it must be that leaving out the date of birth was merely an oversight. ‘All of the Sen- tors listed appear young. There is . Coleman of the Wilmington du Ponts, for instance. Years make no difference to him. He is the life of any party in which he happens to appear. He has not been so well late- 1y, but when he is feeling fit he is a regular playboy. (Copyright, 1926.) Order Saves $75, But Nearly Wrecks Customs Service By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, July 3.—A $75-a- month economy order from Wash- ington yesterday almost disrupted the million-dollar-a-day business of the New York customs house. The order, issued by Controller General McCarl, discontinued a telegraphic service subscribed to by the customs house by which the authorities were kept posted on the progress of ships entering the harbor. By means of this serv- ice they directed the movement of customs inspectors so as to avoid waste of time. Caught unawares by the order, the customs authorities had to call Staten Island residents on the tele- phone and ask them if they saw any ocean liners entering the har- bor. less the order is withdrawn, customs officials said, they will have to hire a special man at $3,000 a year to supply the neces- sary information. g Visitor Dies in Station. Willlam M. Mitchell, 51 years old, of 20 Francis street, Walnut Hill, Huntington, W.. Va., became ill in front of Union Station about 9:30 o'clock last night and died a few minutes later in the emergency room in the station while under treatment. Mitchell, a raliroad employe, was on a vacation trip, accompanied by two friends, Leo Taylor and John Sar- gent, also of Huntington. Coroner Nevitt gave a certificate of death from heart disease, and the body was taken to Huntington. gt Awarded $1,319.20 for Loss of Eye. Maude J.

The requested paving and improve- ment of Benning road from Benning viaduct to the District line, urged by the Benning Citizens’ Assoclation through its secretary, F. W. Oehm, is not justified at the present time in view of many other improvements more urgent, the District Commission- ers, in semi-weekly board meeting, de- cided yesterday. The Commissioners notified the as- sociation that it may still be heard on the question at 10:30 Friday morn- ing, July 9. Pointing out that the Commissioners have ordered that certain surface changes be made in Benning road near Minnesota avenue, the board re- ports that no plans have been adopted for the balance of the road as far as the District line. “Before permanent improvement can be made there,” the Commissioners say, “it will be necessary to widen Benning road in accordance with the highway plan. A survey shows that a large number of small houses fall within the line of the road as pro- posed, which would preclude acquire- ment of land for the widening under the law, which provides that the total cost shall be assessed as benefits.” e BRIDGE GUARDS PLANNED. Three Structures to Be Made Safer at Cost Estimated at $4,850. Plans of David E. McComb, super- intendent of bridges, for the construc- tion of highway guards on the Calvert Street, Connecticut Avenue and Penn- sylvania Avenue Bridges were ap- proved yesterday by the District Commissioners. The cost of the labor is estimated at §950 and’the estimated cost of the material is $3,900. The material has been ordered the work of erecting the guards@will be started upon its arrival. Sunday School Lesson BY REV. HUGH T. STEVENSON. ISRAEL ENSLAVED EGYPT.—Exodus 1i.1-14. Golden Text—Jehovah will not cast off His people.—Ps. xciv.14. IN ‘When the liberty bell sounded forth America's Declaration of Independence a new nation was born and a new era in the world's history was begun. It was cast to “‘proclaim liberty through- out all the land and to the inhabitants thereof,” according to the Scripture engraved upon it at that time. It may well suggest that our national inde- pendence was not born in Philadel- phia or in Mecklenburg, but in Bethle- | hem when Christ was born to make | rms of our national | men free. The freedom and Government can be | found in the Old Testament Scripturcs in God's dealings with the Jewish peo- ple. The hand of the God of Provi- dence, that unites in America the races and religlons of all mankind, has | forged the links in the history of the world that unite ours through the motherland to that of Rome, Greece, Egypt and Israel. In our studies last quarter we noted how Jehovah was preparing to make of the children of Jacob a gr tion. Famine forced them into where Joseph had providentially be come the deliverer of the world from ' This emi- | the perils of starvation. it had previously done for Joseph. It put iron into their souls, so that they endured. It brought them back to God, who heard their cry and was preparing one of their number in the home of Pharaoh tv lead them into freedom. It called for a period of struggle for them to be made ready to leave the life of ease and take the pathway of faith in God to their place of destiny as a nation. The hatred of the overseers did not bury their faith or destroy their power. In the bitter struggles they {tound themselves commencing to de- pend more and more upon the God of their fathers. They found hopes be- ing born within them und a desire for a new day. Egypt was fitting them or their future. God was moving in a mysterious way His wonders to per- form by helping them to endure the | trials, tribulations and tests of the days of bondage. The more severe their taskmasters became the greater they grew in numbers and influence. No power can defeat the cause of right by persecutions. The early church was developed and American lonfes populated with people by strong persecutions. The attacks upon the Jews in Russia and other parts of Europe have turned many to t na- | Palestine, as the Zlon of safety, se- ¥DU | curity and spiritual blessing in’ our own time.

Entering Egypt under the protec- tion of Joseph and the patronage of the pharaoh, the wandering shep herds with their flocks settled in the most fertile section of the land, where their flocks and wealth increased with great rapiditv. They lived in a part of the country where they could ex- pand without becoming infected with the perils of the Egyptians. These hardy men had been tempered by the fires of affiiction and the stern, free life of the desert to such an extent | that they kept themselves a separate independent people within the land. Their prosperf: came the source of thelr oppression. The Cruel Oppressor. The cruel oppressor of Israel was a new Pharaoh, who had overthrown the Hyksos dyna. has been identi- fled by the historia He had no debts to pay Joseph and was not influenced by the acts of that great executive. He faced the possi bilities of a conflict with the Hittites upon the eastern border. The Israel ites were Orientals and his cabinet feared that they would naturally be found upon the other side, which shows that their fears were prompted by race and class prejudice, jealousy and hate. It was true that the Israel ites were living apart from them and were united to one another by a com- mon language, faith and blood. We have had similar views in our own land concerning people of foreign birth, whose loyalty to the principles of freedom and democracy were tested during the World War, so that we have had to change our conception of their Americanism. We misjudge peo- ple when we do not enter into sympa- thetic understanding of their strug- gles and ideals. George ITI misjudged the colonies, just as Rameses did Is- rael. The necessity of building fortifica- tions and preparing for the public de- fense was an excuse for Rameses to draft the Israclites into an army of laborers, who constructed, under task- masters, his store cities and frontier forts. Their wisdom was of the world, which proposed to treat them wisely by placing severe burdens upon them, expecting that they would be crushed by the severe tasks and poor pay. They adopted a peonage which ‘was nothing more than slavery, that was used extensivery to bulld the great buildings of the ancients, their highways and fortifications. Israel- ites endured their trials because they had the assurance of God's help. The difference in the motives of the set- tlers of South America and North America has been cited by a president | | and power be- | as Rameses 11. | of one of the great republics of South America as an explanation for the dif- ference between the two hemispheres. He is reported to have said that the South was settled by men seeking gold, while the North was settled by men seeking God. The rule of gold will prove in the modern days to be a hard taskmaster, while the golden rule will remove friction through the introduction of the spirit of love, kind- ness and brotherhood, which promotes peace and prosperity. Bondage served to unite the na- tion, which may have become ab- sorbed by its prosperity into the life of Egypt. It did for the nation what Cream of Pennsylvania Petroleum.

The k days at Valley Forge preceded Kings Mountain, Saratoga and York town. During the sufferings, sorrows and struggles that marked the Revo- lutionary War God was fitting our ¢ for the part it was destined exactly as He developed the in Egypt. During their stay in Egypt the de- scendants of Jacob had become the leading agriculturists in “the land of Goshen,” which was the most fertile section of that country. ‘“That they understood the arts of fishing and gardening is also clear. (Numbers, 11.5) They also lived in houses citles, even in royal cities. 12.37). From I Chronicles, 4.14 we learn that there was at leas the family of Judah craftsmen (house builders or carpenters), weavers and potters who were regularly employed in the King's work. This is borne out also in the fact that while in the desert there were men and women who were skilled in all the finest arts of clvilization, workers in brass and iron, in silver and gold, and finest manufactures, weaving tapestry and embroidery, all kinds of fine needle- work, and even dyeing, all of which was used in the rearing and the deco- ration of the tabernacles.” The dis- cipline of the taskmasters had made them the masters of all the arts of clvilization, which they would need in building up a new nation. It is no wonder that their successes angered Pharaoh and his advisers, who saw their plans for suppressing the nation and preventing their in- crease, all coming to naught. The wisdom of the world leaves God out of their calculation, but Jehovah never forgets his people. He is today the hope of the oppressed in every land and nation. Israel developed their faith, was prepared to quit the rule of Egypt and bhecome through the blessings of bondage the strong, vigorous pioneers of a nation, through whom God would reveal Himself to all mankind as the fountain of free- dom and the source of all spiritual and material blessings.
