Trumbull's machine when it collided with a car driven by Wilfred Veno, profuscional hockey player, in this city yesterday morning, according to the report of the accident filed in the fifth police pre- cinct today by the officer who investi gated the crash. The report described Coolidge as the driver of “Vehicle No. 2" and the ex- planation of the accident is that “V hicle No. 2, traveling south on Living- ston street, struck Vehicle No. 1, going west on Lawrence street, in the right rear, causing Vehicle No. 1 to turn in the opposite direction and cause the damage.” Veno, who suffered a skull fracture, was reported resting_comfortabiy the hospital today.

The fund was increased by than $400,000 today, according to a re- port from national headquarters, and the total last night stood at $2,700,164. The Red Cross has asked for a mini- mum of $5,000,000. but relief workers have estimated that the rehabilitation of Florida alone will cost more than twice that sum. The full extent of the storm damage in Porto Rico and the Virgin Islands is not known as yet. “BOSSY” GILLIS PLEADS GUILTY TO 3 CHARGES Will Be Sentenced Thursday for Illegally Conducting Gaso- line Station.

CLAUDEL SFES .S, RELATIONS BETTER French Ambassador Says Cancellation of Debts Is Out of Question. By the Associated Press. PARIS, September 28.—Paul Claudel, French Ambassador to the United States, on the eve of his departure to his post after a vacation, sald he was confident there would be a strengthen- ing of relations between France and America during the comIng year. Some of the French newspaper men brought out the subject of cancellation of the French war debt to the United | States. The Ambassador said that this was out of the question because public sentiment in the United States was against cancellation of any of the in-| terallied debts. He explained that Americans rea- soned that they were forced to pay heavy taxes growing out of the war. not only in the way of United States expenditures, but also because of loans to other countries. Asked if there was not even a slight possibility of cancel- lation, he replied: “Frankly, no.” He referred to the special debt of $400,000,000 owed to the United Stai:s by France for war stocks and which fs due August 29, 1929. He said that al- though his task would bé difficult, he felt certain that a satisfactory settle- ment of this would be reached. He hinted that Premier Poincare had a! ready taken steps to meet this debt when the time comes. M. Claudel refused to venture a pre diction concerning the American presi- dential election. “Mr. Hoover is a remarkable states- man, who during and after the war rendered magnificent services to north- ern France and Belgium,” he said. “Gov. Smith is also a great friend of France and a great American.” Efforts to draw from the diplomat an opinion as to whether the clection of Smith would create a market in the United States for French wine failed to shake bis determination not to discuss | American politics. He will sail from St. Nazaire Sunday on the cruiser Duquesne, but will stop at Guadaloupe, the French West Indian on which was ravaged by the He expects to reach ‘Washington about October 20. In another interview the Ambassadc. was quoted as having told Marcel Huntin of Echo de Paris that the dis- cussion of the Franco-British naval agreement was “not a primordial ques- tion affecting relations between France and the United States.” He was sald to have expressed the opindon that there hed been some exaggeration of the i portance of the naval agreement in 0 | American newspapers.

Policeman George Wheelock, for 24 | years a member of the force and for the past 9 years station clerk at the sixth precinct, was recommended for dismis- sal by the Police Trial Board at its yesterday's session in the sixth precinct,. where another officer, Jeff Van of the fifth precinct, was fined $50 on charges of using harsh language and exonerated of an allegation of being under the in- fluence of intoxicants. Wheelock was charged with failure to pay a just debt and with frequently re- quiring the intervention of the depart- ment to compel him to liquidate his financial obligations. His case marks the third time the present board has urged the removal of an officer on similar charges. The dismissal of another officer was | urged by the board Wednesday. He was. Brady A. Henry of the second precingt, and was tried on charges of conduct unbecoming an officer and of being off his beet while on duty. In all, nine policemen have been recommended for dismissal by the new board. Van was alleged at the trial yesterday to have approached three boys who were sitting in an automobile parked on | Fourteenth street near Kenyon street on August 31 and accused them of il- legal parking and told them to move their car. He was off duty and not in uniform at the time. One of th: boys, Raymond Hager, testified that when comply, Van got arm, and later placed him and a com- panion, Robert Smyce. under arrest. Several witnesses told the board that Van staggered and smelled of liquor, but four policemen who were in fhe station house at the time appeared be- fore the board to testify that he was sober John W. Marriott of 3509 Fourteenth street, th> employer of the boys, said that Van cursed him when he inquired the reason for the arrest. g HOOVER TO INVADE SMITH'S HOME CITY ON OCTOBER 13 ___ (Continued™rom First Page) meeting today in Syracuse, N. Y., and will pick its candidates for governor and United States Senator. Not & litle will depend upon the selection of this ticket. The Republicans have the chance to make or mar in their State convention, which also drafts a State platform. Two years ugo (he State convention, meeting in Madison Square Garden, nominated former Senator Wadsworth for Senator and Ogden Mil now Undersecielary of ‘the | Treasury, for governor, the formcr to oppose .Senator Wagner and the latter Gov. Smith himself. There was much underlying bitterness in that State con- vention, due to the opposition of the up-State Republican drys to the nomi- nation of Senator Wadsworth, But the | organlzation steam rollered the drys. | The result was a split in the party ! ranks with some 300,00 votes cast for an independent dry Republican for the Senate and the defeat of Wadsworth, Gov. Smith defeated Mr. Mills by 247,- 000 votes. The nomination of Attorney General Ottinger for governor apparently will be made without contest. There has been a drive by the leaders of the | State organization to nominate Alason B. Houghton, Amba of St; James, for Senator, Mr. Hough- ton formerly served in the House. i There has been opposition to the Houghton nomination for Senator on the ground that the fact he is Am- bassador to Great Britain might not sit well on the electorate of New York. But the leaders apparently have been intent on_ putting across their ticket. At the last minute State Senator Fearon has announced his candidacy, and many of the delegates apparently look upon him with favor. Whether tled without taking the contest to the | floor of the convention remains to be seen. Certainly everything possible is being done for “harmony” in the Republican ranks in New York. Mr. Houghton was Ambassador to Germeny, the first American Ambassador to that country after the World War, before he was { transferred to London. Republican , leaders insist there is no real basis for the fear that his present position may Injure him in New York. National Republican headquarters here in Washington, it is insisted, has kept its hands entirely off the New York race for gubernatorial and senatorlal nominations. Mr, Houghton is an upstate Republi- can, from Corning, and Attorney Gene eral Ottinger is from New York City. Reports from Massachusetts indicate that the Republicans are working hard, and that much will be done between now and election in the matter of reg- istering the Republican women. The Republican leaders have not been en- tirely satisfled with the past regisiraiion, but are encouraged over what is being done in the State now, ' Trial Board Rules Against they refused to in and twisted his sador to the Court ' the nomination for Senator can be set- | | PRECEDENTSi SHATTERED WHEN PRINCE WEDS DIPLOMAT’S DAUGHTER __(Continued_from_First sctibed, garments for the bride, a fan of cypress wood, the “tree of the sun,” two fresh fish—"“Tal,” to the Japanese the king of fishes—and a cask of spe clally purified sake.- The bride's fam- ily sent in return gifts of “Tai” and sake. There had been many purifica- tion rites also, and ancient ceremonies designed to drive away evil spirits and misfortune. To overcome the technical obstacle caused by Setsuko's father having no title, she was adopted by her uncle, Vis- count Morio Matsudaira, so he could act as her father at the wedding. Tsuneo Matsudaira renounced his right of suc- cession in favor of his younger brother or he might have been Viscount Mat- sudaira. The Matsudaira family is one of the oldest of feudal Japan, the direct ancestor being the Shogun Hidetads, second of the Tokugawa Shoguns.who ruled Japan from 1600 to the restora- | tion of the Emperor in 1868. Grandfather Made Viscount. One of the descendants of this Sho- gun became daimyo or earl of the Aizu clan, one of the most powerful in Northern Japan. When the feudal system was replaced in 1884 by the modern pecrage, the grandfather of Miss Matsudaira was daimyo of that clan and was given the viscountey. The foster father of today's bride, is the second to hold that title. Prince Chichibu is the second im- perial son to be married under the im- perfal marriage law promulgated in 1911. His brother, the present Em- peror, Hirohito, was the first, when, as crown prince, he married Princess Nagako in January, 1924. Weddings of members of Japan’s im- perial family are unlike any other royal ‘weddings in the world. They invoke the sanction of no religious sect save that of which they are the central figures, the ancient ancestor worship of Japan, Thus it becomes an intensely family affair, since the deities who are asked to approve the union are their own ancestors, the 123 emperors who have preceded Hirohito on the throne, and, chief of all, the divine ancestress, the sun goddess, Amaterasu-O-Mi-Kami, The rites which surround the wedding | are of such antiquity that not even the most learned antiquaries of the court can speak confidently of their origin. The costumes are those handed down from t] court ceremonies of more than a thousand years ago. _The new Princess Chichibu will pre- side over an establishment that has hardly a trace of either Japanese archi- tecture or furnishings. It is a mansion completed less than a year ago and is approached by a short driveway off one of Toklo's main avenues. There is a porte cochere which might belong to any American estate. The building is of stone and stucco. high roofed and re- sembling an English country place. In- side are hardwood floors, Chinese Tugs and medern furniture. The plumbing s thoroughlv up to date. The only Japanese style in the place is found in the mat floors of the servants' quarters Lantern Parade Held. The wedding day was brought to a cli- (max tonight by a lantern precession | which gave the Tokio populace an op- portunity to express congratulations to | the newly wedded pair. It was estimated that 60,000 persons took part in the procession and that scores of thousands of others looked on as the lantern bearers wound their way through 4 miles of the municipal streets of the capital. The marchers massed in front of the new mansion of Prince Chichibu and roared “banzais” for him and his bride. ’Thl'n they proceeded the short distance lw the imperial palace, where the shouts ‘;'ere]repeaud in honor of the reigning amily.

ARE DESIGNATED Park Commission Now Takes Up Potomac Prob- lem. Having given its approval yesterday to a plan for development of the major thoroughfares of the city, the National Capital Park and Planning Commission today turned its attention to one of the most important questions confronting it—namely, whether it is feasible to have both water power and park de- velopment on the upper Potomac. ‘The commission spent more than two hours this morning in ex: e ses- sion going over the Great Falls and upper Potomac problem, but had taken no action up to noon. Indications were that the remainder of the day will be devoted to the subject. Maj. Brehon Summervell, States engineer for this distri sat m with the park commission this morn- ing and explained in detail the report of the joint committee representing his office and that of the Park Commission, which committee made a thorough study of the possibilities of havin both a water power project and par development along the upper Potomac. It is understood that the committee re- port is largely a fact-finding document dealing with various water power lay- outs and how they would affect the plans of the Park Commission for the preservation of the natural scenery and park advantages of the Potomac region. The thoroughfare plan adopted ves- terday afternoon designates the streets and avenues that should be regarded as the main arterles of travel from the heart of the city to the outlying areas as well as those which logically form the connecting links between different por- tions of the city. This plan is expected to be taken into consideration in pre- paring future street paving programs and in studying traffic problems. The story of how the park commis- sion hopes to save the District several millions of dollars in the opening up and paving of new streets by making certain changes in the undeveloped por- tion of the highway plan also was un- folded at yesterday's meeting. One-Way Streets Suggested. In connection with the major thor- oughifare plan, the commission recom- mended that consideration be given by the municipal authorities to the desig- nation of Columbia road as a one-way west-bound street from Soldi Home to Sixteenth street and Harvard street one-way east-bound from Sixteenth street to Soldiers’ Home. The commis- sion believes this arrangement would afford better connecting links between the already wide Columbla road west of Sixteenth street and the equally spa- cious Michigan avenue east of Soldiers’ Home. It was suggested further that the diagonal turns in Harvard street at Fourteenth street and at Georgia avenue be straightened as much as possible. The details of how this is to be ac- complished remain to be worked out, out it was suggested that some im- provement could be brought about by cutting back the corners of these in- tersections somewhat. Thoroughfares Classified. Under the thoroughfare plan as ap- proved the routes are classified as those already adopted, those requiring further study and those passing through parks.

Before taking up this major thor- oughfare vlan the commission consid- ered the report on savings which may be effected by changes in the unievel- oped portions of the highwav plan. ‘The commission believes that by study- ing che remaining undevelcped arcas of the District, where the ¢treets have not yet been laid out, large sums may be saved in the cost of >rading, paving and similar improvements throigh the adoption of certain prineiples of high- wav planning. The most important of these prin- ciples are the .lengthening of bloc changing of routes of proposed streets to conform more nearly to topograpiy thereby eliminating expensive ereding and reducing the cost of sewer con- struction. Figures were presented to show that by following these principles in the highway changes made since the com- mission was created less than three vears ago, a saving efready has bren effected of $674,000 in the original cost of street work, with an additional s: ing of $56,000 a year in maintenance charges on those streets, Probable Future Economy. By applying the same principles | changing the highway plan of ot} proposed streets, the commiss a possible future saving of §: in the original cest of la S ol streets, with an annual saving on main- tenance of $263,000. There is still another group of pro- posed streets, for which the land he been dedicated but not opened, where it would be possible to save $204.000 i original cost and $18.000 on annua paintenance by applying these princi- ples of highway change. In the casc of this last group, however, legislatior by Congress would be needed to per: the commission to change the line ¢ a proposed street where the land ha been dedicated. The total savings possible fron changes thus far made and by ex tending the program to the 7,500 acre of remaining undeveloped area in th District would aggregate $3657,000 original cost of building the streetsan $337,000 annually in maintenance. See Beauty of City Enhanced. Maj. Carey H. Brown, executive of- ficer of the commission, and J. C. Nich- ols of Kansas City, a member, empha- sized that these principles of highw change not only result in financial sav- ings to the District, but at the same tgne enhance the benuty of the city ¥ adhering more closely to topography. they said, trees and hillsides are pre- served, and the rigid gridiron plan of street layout is departed from. They pointed out that it also makes pos- sible more economical development of the abutting property. CES T United OVER. | i Glenna Collett Decl- She Will | Vote for Him Becau e Is Dry.
