| HOOVER OPTINISTIC ON RIVER CONTROL Holds Early Session of Con- gress to Plan Flood Pro- gram Unnecessary. By a Staft Correspondent of The Star. STATE GAME LOD( HILALS, S Dak.. July 21 of Commerce Hoover is the Mississippi Rive can be controlled and the vast valle sateguarded from tion of the disasterous flood it a broad and proper engineering plan is developed. He brought to this temporary s of Government a personal report of the result of his three months' work the flood area, which the course for the Fede Gov to follow, both in the matter of relief and in affording greater protection in the future The substance of this report and its recommendations was to new: paper correspondents during an inte view late yesterday afternoon. Opposes Most important of all, Mr. Hoover 1s satisfied that the Mississippi River and its tributaries can be controlled if a broad and proper engineering plan is developed. Also, he made it very plain that he does not think it n ry to call Congress to meet in advance of the regular meeting date for the purpose of enacting flood legis- lation. “We can handle the situation pe fectly ngress meets in regular he said. “By that time we ally com- pleted the relief work. Looking ahead, 1 will say that on the first of Novem ber there will be §3.000,000 or more of the $17,000,000 Red Cross funds atill available for relief work, which amount should carry us a month longer. Mr. Hoover indignantly denied im putations that Congtess might not respond to the requirements of the Mississippi relief and flood -control. THopes for Early Action. “There has never been a time in our histo when Congress, in the face of an emergency of national im- portance, has not lived up to the best expectations of the American people. 1 hope that this coming Congress will be in the humor to act promptly upon the reports made by its own commit- s’ which have been studying the d_problems.” There are some ph: uation,” he continued, s must give assistance of a relief nature. It is imperative that some of the levees be closed up without de- lay. and the work of reconstruction got under way. I have recommended to the President that the Federal Gov ernment take over and repair all of the levee breaks,: whether they are Government owned or not.” It was explained by Mr. Hoover that congressional relief would have to be afforded in paying of interest and amoritzation charges on some $45.000. 000 worth of these outstanding levee bonds, and then he said that there were no other relief items that require congressional consideration. Levees Must Be Strengthened. Satisfied in his own mind that the f work is being taken care of, it upon the subject of future flood control that Mr. Hoover waxed elo- quent, and spoke with great emphasis. “The entire levee system must be strengthened, raised, made wider and given better support,” he said. *De- spite all that has been said against it, we must have a spillway the lower ississippi to divert waters in the sarly Session. s of the sit- n which Con- Pprobable cost of insuring the future against any recurrence of what hap- pened last Spring, Mr. Hoover stated: “I am willing to make a guess, but it must not be considered as an engi- neer’s estimate. I should say that from $150,000,000 to $200,000,000, spread over a period of 10 years, will be sufficient to meet the situation of flood control. The Federal Govern- ment is now spending from $16,000,000 to $17,000,000 annually on the Missis- sippi_and its immediate tributari therefore an additional annual expen: diture of from $10,000,000 to $20,000,- 000 is needed for the next decade.” Will Aid Transportation. Mr. Hoover added, by way of ex- planation, that not only will this out- lay take care of flood control, but it will give the central portion of the country the transportation relief in navigation that it has been calling for. He explained that the navigation plan for the Mississippl River has already been authorized by Congress. In his summary of the rellef work, Mr. Hoover said the rescue organiza: tion in the flood district has been de- mobilized; that several hundred thou- sand were brought out of the water and since President Coolidge directed consolidation of all efforts there has been a known loss of only three lives. He reported that of a total of 700,000 people flooded, 608,000 were dependent upon public relief for food and shelter, and other assistance for from six to eight weeks. He said also that all but 20,000 of the people in the camps have now returned to their homes, although 150,000 are still being fed in their homes, Progress Being Made. “The reconstruction committees,” Mr. Hoover continued, *“are making substantial progress with rehabilita- tion. In 101 counties, considerably flooded, 2,000,000 areas of crops that were lost have been ry nted with staple crops mostly from seed fur- nished by the relief. We hope the y of this acreage was planted rly enough to secure a full crop. This area should, with the help being given, recover to self support by the Fal ecretary of Commerce Hoover, who knows considerable about fish not only from an expert angler's view- point, but as head of the department ing the United States Bureau sheries, reasy to respect knowledge about trout.

SEARCH IN MURDER SECTION IS FUTILE Montgomery County Officers Report Nothing New in Mills Case Probe. Special Dispatch to The Star. ROCKVILLE, Md., July 21.—Hope that important developments were near in the probe of the murder, July 7. of Edward L. Mills, at his farm, near Hunting Hill, was raised here last night. ; State’s Attorney Robert Peter, j stayed at the courthouse until 1 a.m when J. Stanley Gingell, former deputy sheriff. and other county ofil- cers returned from a {irip into the farming area. It was then announced that nothing new had been found . Mrs. Mills, widow of the murdered ryman, and her oldest son, Paul. ears old, visited both their at- Clifford H. Robertson and State's Attorney Peter, toda Mrs. Mills declared to Mr. Robertson that she had told the authorities everything she could think of which would aid them in their search. She said the murder was as much a mys tery to her as any one else. In her talk to Mr. Peter, Mrs. Mills said that statements made by Paul when he was visited late one night this week by a delegation of interest- ed residents were misinterpreted. The visitors questioned Paul regarding a certain man suspected of having knowledge of the murder, and it was charged that they had taken away an erroncous construction of Paul's re marks. Mrs. Mills informed her lawyer that most of the statements attributed to her in the press had been falsehoods. She particularly denies that she ever informed the authorities of any indis- cretions of her late hushand, or gave any information which might lead the investigators to give credence to the sensational ‘“confession” which was found pinned to her murdered hus- band's coat. The four Montgomery officers who are making a_canvas of all dwellings and farms within a five-mile radius of the Mills' farm started their third day’s work today. They already have obtained an abbreviated questionnaire an the murder from between 75 and 80 farm residents. It is expected they will be at least another week on this work. State’s Attorney Peter said today that despite the lack of success of his investigators, the search for the slayer is going on “with increasing vigor"” and that he still is “full of hope. HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM REPORT BEING PREPARED Commissioners to Get Committe'’s Recommendations on Fire In- stallation in Two Weeks. The committee appointed to study the advisability of installing a high- pressure fire-protection system in the high-value district of Washington will make its report to the Commission- ers within the next two weeks, it was announced today by Fire Chief George S. Watson, chairman. A study of the high-pressure sys- tems in New York and Washington has been made by the committee. It also has conferred with the National Board of Fire Underwriters and as- certained the amount of reduction that would be allowed on fire in- surance premiums on property in the high-value area if the high-pressure system were installed. Although the committee has not indicated what recommendations will be made, it s understood that it will urge the modernization of -the water distribution system as the first step toward providing better fire pro- tection. Coolidge yesterday afternoon, on the ride from the executive office to the ame lodge, took Mr. Hoover to the fish hatchery on the outskirts of Rapid City and for more than 20 min- utes talked fish with his guest while he pointed to the various specimens swimming about in the tanks and aquariums, No doubt it was perfectly natural for the President to want to show his suest the points of interest out here and therefore picked the hatchery. It was not wholly unnatural for a more or less amateurish angler to want an opportunity to demonstrate the knowledze of fish he has acquired. But to those who have reason to know of Mr. Hoover's profound knowledge of fish of all kinds this lec- ture tour conducted by the President appeared all the more interesting, if not amazing. Secretary Hoover is not only a student of, but he writes about them, nd is an expert at catching them. Recently he delivered a lecture on fish before “the Izaak:® Walton League. Whether or not the President was aware of all this when he took Mr. Hoover to the hatchery is not known. At any rate, it did not prevent him from assuming the lecturer's role on this occasion. Mr, Hoover listened at- tentively and followed him from one spot to another at the. hatchery, hp- varently interested Mr. Hoover said afterward that he was amazed at the President’s pro- ficiency in the subject of fish. He was surprised to hear the President speal so learnedly about this subject ar to give such an exhibition of knowl edge of the various specimens and o their bits and cultur Mr. Hoover experienced a seriou wind and rain storm during his first t at the Summer White House. torm raged through the hills for nearly an hour and a nuinber of trees are reported to have fallen, but no was done to the lodge, ident and Mr. Hoover arose y and had finished breakfast and were on_their way to the Execu- tive office in Rapid Cfty hy 7:30 o'clock. NG | | UNOERWO0O STAR, WASHINGTON. FIGURES ABOUT WHOM RUMANIAN STORM MAY GATHER EFFICIENCY BUREAU HITBY LEGION BODY Abolition Urged in Resolution Prepared by Committee for Convention. Charging “gross neglizence” and utter indifference” by the Bureau of Efficiency in the performance of its duties, a resolution urging its aboli- tion was approved by the resolutions committee of the American Legion Department of the District of Colum- bia at a pre-convention session, pre- ided over by Chairman Harlan Wood last night, and will be voted on by delegates during the three-day con- vention of the department opening tonight in the Interior Department auditorium, The resolution states: “It is the belief of ex-service men * * * that the United States Bureau of Efficiency and the Personnel Clas- sification Board. have been gr: negligent and utterly indifferent in performing the duties required of them by law in the establishment and maintenance of a system of efficiency rating based upon fact whereby ex- service men and women may have the protection afforded by law™ and “that the United States Bureau of Efficiency particularly has greatly transgressed its lawful duties, with great resulting detriment to ex-service men. Urges National Action. The resolution calls upon the con- vention of the department again to | request the national convention of the American Legion to indorse and do its utmost to secure passage of congres- sional legislation abolishing the bu- reau and the personnel board and placing these functions under _the United States Civil Service Com- mission. A resolution condemning execution of convicts un Armistice dayand seck- ing to have another date set for the executions scheduled here for No- vember 11 was disapproved by the committee on the ground that it would be an attempt to influence judicial action peculiarly within the realm of the courts, Another resolution calling for legis- lation permitting boxing exhibitions in the District under the auspices of the American Legion was disapproved by the committee. Bars Debt Discussion. Six other resolutions were approved One placed the local Legion on record as opposing any and all consideration of war debt questions at the national convention in Paris, on the ground that this would be political activity outside the jurisdiction of the Legion. Another approved appointment of a standing committee for sale of poppies annually to obtain funds for welfare work. In another approved resolution sanction is given to legislation to facilitate retirement of disubled emerg- ency Army officers under conditions favorable to them. The committee also indorsed resolu- tions urging the national commander to use his good offices to protect French citizens, serving with Amer- ican forces during the war, but re- garded as delinquent in their military ! duties in the French Army, from ar- rest at the Paris convention; and ap- proving furlough cut rates on rail- roads for men in active service in going to and from their homes.

Miller Kenyon, the “Army” candidate for commander of the local department were predicting a_landslide for their ndidate today with more than suffi- cient votes to election claimed to be already lined up as the result of pre- { convention caucus work. Kenyon forces claim 36 out of 57 votes of the convention, pledzed absolutely, with 10 other votes pledged on a contingent basis. Harvey L. Miller, the. “navy can- didate” and member of Vincent B Costello Post, was claimed to be srill in the running by his supporter: though it was announced today that strong pleas had been made for his withdrawal on the ground that the »gion should swing solidly De- hind one candidate to £how the gen-| public that harmeny again pre- legion politics hers and the s and “progressive” cliques which fought each other at the last convention and previous oc- casions had buried the hatchet. " YOUR HOME WITH OIL Clean EconomicalSafe | . BTG, NS T PARKING OF TAXIS PUT UP TO BRIDE Dougherty Refers Efficiency Bureau Findings to Cor- poration Counsel. The report of the Federal Bureau of Efficiency, urging abolition of e clusive parking concessions to taxicab compasies adjoining hotels, together with the recommendation of Maj. Ed- in B. Hesse, superintendent of po- lice, that stands for public vehicles be designated in certain sections of the District, were referred to Corpora- tion Counsel W. W. Bride today by Commissioner Iroctor L. Doiczherty to ascertain whether the adoption of these recommendations would conflict with a decision of the Court of Ap- peals in the case of the Willard Hotel Co. against the District. The court in that case held that aprivilege is attached to hotels of an excluisve use of such public space in front of hotels for the accomodation of their guests. Tllegal and Unfair. The Efficiency Bureau, however. in its report to the Ccmmissioners de- clared that the present practice of granting exclusive concessions to taxicabs at the hotels is illegal ana unfair and urged that it be corrected immediately. The bureau also cited the decision of the Court of Appeals in the Wiliard Hotel case and interpreted it to mean that the exclusive privilege defined in the opinion depended upon the meet- ing of the three following require- ments: That vehicles must be either owned or leased by the hotel proprie- tor; that they must be used exclu- sively for the accommodation of the suests of his hotel, and that they must be kept only in reasonable number, subject to all reasonable regulation by the public authorities, to prevent the use from becoming excessive To Avoid “Cruising. Maj. Hesse's recommendation for the establishment of stands to accom- modate 800 vehicles has been before the Commissioners for several months. It was made chiefly to break up the practice of taxicabs ‘‘cruising” in search of fares in the congested scc- tions. Some of the points designated by Maj. Hesse for the stands are contiguous to important hotels, . WIFE-SPANKER FREED ON PLEA OF SPOUSE Judge Relents in Case of Anti-Hair Bobber in Police Court. After sentencinz Glover L. Carr to six_months in_jail for spanking his wife when she bobbed her hair, Judge Robert E. Mattingly relented today and touched by the plea of the wife that she had no money to support her- self_and baby, took Carr's personal bond not to repeat the offense. “If she cuts her halr down to her alp,” Judge Mattingly warned, “don’t you touch her.” Mrs. Carr the other day in Police Court appeared very vindictive and asked that her husband be severely punished. .

N D. C., THURSDAY. KINGLIESIN STATE ASNATION MOURNS Grandson Assumes Throne at Brief Ceremony in Pres- ence of Parliament. of Parliament to receive their cheers. When the brief ceremonies we over, the little King, hardly understanding what it was all about, could not con- ceal his pleasure, and an officer of the guards heard him whisper to his mother, “Let's go home, mamma, I am hungry.” The royal party, Michael, was made up of P ince | Nichol second son of Ferdinand Princess 1Ileana, King Ferdinand's daughter, and Princess Helen, wife of the former Crown Prince Carol, who renounced his rights to the throne. As Michael was led into the cham- ber by his mother he halted as if on the verge of tears, but proceeded to the royal tribune after she whispered, “Remember you are a king and the son of kings.” He gazed at the as. semblage of statesmen throughout the ceremony, never changing his seri- ous expression. Carol Alone Absent. His mother, in deep mourning with heavy crepe veil, seemed to be labor- ing under great emotion as she stood beside him. A letter of King Ferdinand deliv- ered to Premier Bratiano Tuesday night, seemingly as if the King had 1 prescntiment of death, after roview- ing the events of his re begged that the dynastic succes: be fol- lowed out as b e ided upon in January, 19 hortly after Carol renounced his royal prerogatives and left the country. Carol was the only member of the family missing at the bedside when the monarch passed away. The King decided the best interests of the coun- try would be served by the Prince maining abroad, and never swerved from this resolve, even when he knew death was upon him. It is not be- lieved here that Carol will attempt to come to Bucharest. In any case he could not arrive in time for the funeral unless he took a fast air- vlane, besides Prine Queen Keeps Vigil. Queen Marie and the Sisters of Charity who tended Ferdinand during his last moments were keeping a_sad I beside the bier today. Plans were for a special funeral train to leave this afternoon and bring the body to Cotroceni Palace, Bucharest. It will lie in state in the gold room all day tomorrow so as to permit the public to pay last tribute to the first sovereign of Greater Rumania. Saturday morning a train will bear the body to the cemetery at Curtea de Arges, where it will be laid to rest in the royal mausoleum. Carol's partisans here are fewer than ever, consisting only of a smait section of the peasants’ party headed by his old tutor, Prof. Jorga. Even these appear to have accepted the new regime, at least for the present, but what the future may have in store is another question. Some impartial observers say that Premier Bratiano is certain to do his utmost to main- n the regency regime, but it is em- phasized that the very existence of a regency weakens the royal power, and many fear the death of the King may be seized as a pretext for widespread political agitation. ALEXANDER TO ATTEND RIT! Son-in-Law of Dead King to Go to Bucharest. BELGRADE, Jugoslavia, July 21 (#).~King Alexander of Jugoslavia, son-in-law of the late King Ferdinand of Rumania, plans to leave today for Rumania to attend the funeral of Ferdinand. His wife, Queen Marie, daughter of Ferdinand, already is in Rumania, having been at her father’s bedside when he died. King Alexander will be accompanied by several members of his cabinet and a_delegation from the 25th Regiment of Infantry, of which Ferdinand was honorary colonel. PRESIDENT SE! Cables Condolences to Queen Marie on King's Death. By the Assoclated Press, Condolences of the President and Mrs. Coolidge on the death of King Ilerdinand of Rumania were cabled to Queen Marie today and made public at the State Department. “Learning with profound regret of the death of his majesty King Ferd- inand, your late distinguished hus- band, after the prolonged and painful illness which so unfortunately com- pelled your majesty to curtail your visit to this country,” the message said, “Permit me to express on behalf of Mrs. Coolidge and myself as well as the Government and people of the United States the deepest sympathy with your majesty in the loss which you have sustained.” Secretary Kellogg also telegraphed regrets to Foreign Minister Titulesou at Bucharest. “I learn with deep regret of the death of his majesty King Ferdinand,” the Secretary's message said. *Please accept the expression of my very real personal sympathy in the loss which has been sustained by the Rumanian people.” WALES TO REVISIT SPAIN.
