Despite his recognition in an Ameri- | can Legion meeting at Philadelphia | by a former soldier who serv d with | the marines in France, “Jerry Tar-| bot,” who: identity has been a com- plete mystery for six years, remained unidentified today after a recheck of Marine Corps records. Neither the muster rolls of the 16th | Company, 6th Regiment, Marine Corps, nor the records of the complete 4th and 5th Regiments have ylelded any description or identifying marks that would place Tarbot as having served in these commands. Tarbot's case first came to the at- tention of the Marine Corps six years ago when he called on Maj. Gen. Neville in California, who was con- vinced after talking with Tarbot that he had been with the marines in France. Complete data were for- warded to Washington, but neither the fingerprint records of the Arm: Navy or Marine Corps, nor any othel records of the three services have been sufficient to identify him.

Marine Corps headquarters still is of the opinion that Tarbor, who was | Jegally given that name by a Cali- fornia Court, served either with a French or Canadlan unit in nce and at some while sick or wounded, w. can Marines at elsewhere. On that assumption, his photograph, together with all detalls that would help to establish his iden- tity, have been broadcast all over the world, but without result. Tarbot belleves he was a dispatch rider of the 5th Regiment when it was commanded by Col.. later Brig. Gen., Doyven, but Col. Frank E. Evans, who was Gen. Doyen’s aide in France, has been unable to identify the veteran nor has Tarbot recog- nized Evans. There seems to be no doubt, how- ever, that Tarbot did at some time serve with the Marines in France, as his clouded memory has produced glimpses of recollections that he could not otherwise hav He also bears | many wounds, physical examinations | showing him to have a bayonet wound in the left cheek, bullet wounds in the right cheek and chin. and | shrapnel wounds on the back of the | hand. | PRAISE MODERN YOUTH AT CHURCH GATHERING Speakers at Interdenominational Meeting Express Confidence in Young Folk Today. Confidence was expressed in mod- ern youth by Dr. William Mather | Lewls, president of George Washing- | ton University, and William Knowles | Cooper, general secretary of the Y. . C. A., addressing the Interdenom- al Committee of Young People | at a meeting in the Central High | School Auditorium last night. | “I do not think there is any modern | vouth problem. I think the world is| better today than ever before,” Dr. | Lewis declared, adding that he be- | lieved “there is just as much courage | and infegrity in the mind of modern | youth as ever before.” 1 Mr. Cooper said that he did not be- lleve there was ever before a genera- tion of young people so open-minded. | He also voiced the belief that “there | 18 no hope for the church If dominated by men of over 40 ; the church must be dominated ung people.” Rev.

Dougherty tndicated today that he will not likely | approve the joint recommendations of Traffic Director Eldridge and Supt. of Police Hesse for a readjustment of the automobile parking arrangement in the vicinity of the Union Station. The police and traffic officials had planned to prohibit parking altogether around the base of the Columbus Me- morial statue facing the station, but Commisisoner Dougherty of the opinfon that motorists going to the station should not be denied the priv. flege of parking as close to it as pos- sible. If machines are prevented from parking around the base of the statue, the Commissioner pointed out, motor- ists going to the station would be re- quired to cross on foot the wide cir- cular drive in front of the railroad terminal, subjecting themselves un- necessarily to the danger of the heavy | traffic at this point. | Adriatic—Liverpool | Orizaba—Havan base hospital or | ! member of the fire committee of the Do You Know Him a SHIPPING NEWS Arrivals at_and_Sailings From New York, ARRIVED YESTERDAY.

The Department of Justice is investigating the case. The parents of Miss Reamer yester- day made a verbal complaint to, Judge E. E.
