BY PAUL SCOTT MCWRER. #y Radio to The Star and Chicago Daily News. PARIS, July 30.—European diplo- matic circles are awaiting with great interest precise news of recent events in Russia, where the last of the old line Communists now seem to have been eliminated from power and the opportunists reign supreme. According to reports from Helsing- fors, which may or may not be true, Dzjerjinski was the last obstacle in vay of the opportunists, and his removal was decided upon July 14 in a meeting of the political bureau. Cheka agents, acting on orders of the political ' bureau, gave him | three days in which to absent him- self on leave. He refused. In a stormy interview he is declared to have drawn a revolver and tried to shoot Leon Trotsky, but was dis- armed and imprisoned in his apart- { ment. Trotzky ordered his execution, which was duly accomplished, not by hanging or poisoning, but by suf- ation. » News of the execution caused popular disorders in Moscow nd tr were brought from Lenin- - nd other cities. Dzjerjinskl's secretaries and for- mer collaborators then were arrest- ed. Search of his apartments re- vealed considerable quantities of gold and jewels, including the dia- | mond-covered baton of a former | patriarch. | Following the events, Zinoviev was removed from office and the return of Leonid Krassin to London was announced. ever may be the exact truth, dent that important political are occurring in Soviet Rus- sia.

Suit for Lights Near Union Station Back on Calendar Justice Hoehling of the District Supreme Court today restored to the trial calendar the suit of the District of Columbia against the ‘Washington Terminal Co. to re- cover §11,233 for the lighting of ' certain streets in the vicinity of Union Station. The suit was filed October 12, 1923, but was dismissed from the calendar under a blanket court order. The resto:ation was made on motion of Corporation Coansel Stephens and Assistant Corporation Counsel Willlam H. ‘Wahly. The terminal company, through Attorneys Hamilton & Hamliton, denied Uability for the costs of lighting the adjacent streets, say- ing it operated its own lighting plant and should not be required to pay for street lighting any more than any other taxpayer whose ~property faced on the street. SPAIN STANDS FIRM. Minister of State Reiterates De- mand for Seat in League Council. MADRID, July 30 (#).—El Liberal publishes an interview today with the minister of state regarding the at- titude that Spain should take at the next session of the League of Nations. “If Spain's demand for a permanent seat in the council of the league is not granted,” the minister is quoted as having said, “the Spanish govern- { ment does not believe it should re- main 2 member of the league.” Ale ~*NATIONA REREHING REVOKED PERMISTUDED Plan Being Evolved for Ap- peal to Commissioners and Then Court. A definite form of procedure for the Commissioners to follow in hearing the appeal of motorists whose driv- ing permits are suspended is being framed today by Corporation Counsel Francis H. Stephens. The Commissioners now have before them the first appeal from the action of Traffic Director M. O. Eldridge in suspending a permit under the amended trafilc regulations, and will hear it just as soon as Mr. Stephens submits his recommendation. Mr. Stephens plans to suggest a method of procedure modeled after that of the Court of Appeals. When a permit is suspended and the appeal is taken to the Comissioners the licensee will be called upon to submit a petition, under oath, setting forth the reasons why he deems the traffic director’s action has been unlawful. The traffic director would have five days in which tb reply. No oral argu- | ments would be presented. Under the present law a motorist whose permlit is suspended or revoked has 10 days in which to appeal from the action of the traffic director. The appeal automatically stays the suspension or revocation for that period. If the Commissioners uphold the action of the traffic director the STAR, WASHINGTON, D. €, FRIDAY, Fake Police Call Traced to Source Lands Man in Cell Stirred by fake calls for police that many times during the past month have sent officers of the third precinct scurrying to quell mythical shooting | scrapes and hold-ups, police last night carefully traced a false alarm and ar- rested Joseph Lee, colored, 29, of 2429 F street. Lee was sald to have admitted mak- ing the telephone call reporting a fight, which proved a fake, and was held for investigation. He denies re- sponsibility for other calls. The arrest was made by Officer J. L. Bill- man. licensee has the right to appeal to the Court of Appeals within 30 days, but his permit is withdrawn imme- diately upon the decision of the.Com- missioners, Mr. Eldridge has canceled 29 drivers' permits thus far this month under the original traffic act, and 17 under the amended act. Only one ap- peal from his action has been noted in these 46 cases. Mr. -Eldridge today warned motor- ists that unless they voluntarily make application for renewil of their per- mits within a reasonable time, steps will be taken to force them to do it. Applications for the new permits now are being made voluntarily at a good, rate, he said, byt he fears some drivers will procrastinate and delay the work of the Traffic Bureau. “If there appears to be any let-up in the demand,” he said, “regulations will be set up to cancel th§ old per- mits either by names or numbers at a given date.” That will cause an in- convenience to some drivers who may be out of the city, and I hope such action will not be necessary.” You have been reading our summer suit ad- vertising at regular prices for the past two months—but there are two months more of summer temperatures.
