The report also denounced members of fraternal organizations who mis- interpret their obligations to such organizations in such a way that they become a “dire evil.” ““When a man binds himself secretly by secret oath,” the report said, “in such a way that he feels or knows he cannot come into a grand jury room or a court of justice and tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth without violating his secret oath he is no longer a good citizen.

Gen. Leonard Wood of the Philippine Islands, it was emphasized yesterday afternoon at the office of Secretary Davis. At the same time it was said the Secretary is still of the opinion that there is no occasion for haste in naming a successor to the late gov- ernor. Indications that a mnew gov- ernor would not be selected until after Congress convenes were given, with the statement that an execu- tive for the islands would probably not care to assume his duties until after his appointment had been con- firmed by the Senate. However, should a decision be made prior to the convening of Con- gress, it was explained, a new gov- ernor could hardly arrive in time to be of service in connection with the legislative deliberations of the in. 16 s THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

One aspect of the situation as to the present session of the insular Legislature which has impressed some officials here is that in. the event of a recess appointment as governor general being made the legis- lative body might show an inclination to defer important matters on its cal- endars until the new governor gen- eral did arrive and his policies had been ascertained.

Father John B. Creeden, 8. J., president of Georgetown University, and the Rev. Willlam T. Tallon. S. J., dean of the college for three years, are among visiting priests making their retreat at the Hilltop. As predecessor to President Charles W. Lyons, S. J., Father Creeden in- augurated the “Greater Georgetown’ movement during the end of his six years' administration. Returning to Georgetown is like returning home for Father Creeden, for since his first con- nection with the university in 1897 he has spent a large part of his career there. Father Creeden is now in charge of the Graduate School of Boston Col- lege. Father Tallon, who was dean at Georgetown, left three years ago to become secretary to the provincial of the New York-Maryland province of the Jesuit Order. Another well known Georgetown priest, Rev. Charles L. O'Brien, S. J., class of 1901, also is making his re- treat at the Hilltop. S Lizard shoes are vogue in London.
