In urging the women to use their: . influence wherever they ‘could to give | { impetus to pending bills affecting the ¢ welfare of the District, Mr. Rover dis- « cussed the lack of several needed laws for the protection of life and property. ! With a vagrancy law, he said, it would | « be difficult for “professionals” to ply ' 1 their trade here, for the police cou]d‘l { pick up many suspicious characters and | + known crooks at sight. | L Another legislative need of the Dis- + trict, he pointed out, was a “dangerous * weapon law,” which, if properly en- forced, would prevent the purchase of revolvers by criminals. Under the pro- ¥ posed law, he explained, applicants for + “dangerous weapons” must be investi- + goted and delivery cannot be made un- €748 hours after purchase. : The District also lacks a law cover- ; Ing “assault to do great bodily harm,” he said, nor is there a lew here cover- ; ing the crime of burglary. “Burglary,” {1in the District is cefined as “house- * breaking,” Mr. Rover said, “and must ! be done at night. Burglary itself,” he ¢« explained, “is not listed as a crime.” ! Possession of a weapon by a person ; discovered in housebreaking should be » made a felony, the United States at- 1 torney recommended. !

Robert had nersuaded his mother, Mrs. Jack Cockrill, to give him a nickel to buy candy. He ran to the corner store and took a piece of candy from the bag and was eating it when he reached the curb and darted across the street. He was thrown several feet by the au~ tomobile "and was unconscious when Miss Lano reached him. A parked car had obscured her vision of the child, a few feet away. The boy's bag lay a few feet away.

George S. Gobbett, 6 years old, of 125 D street, was struck by an =uto- | mobile as he was playing in the street | in front of his home about 5:50 o'clock. Miss Marguerite Dunbar of 4423 Green- ‘wlch parkway, the driver of the car, took the child to Casualty Hospital, where he was treated by Dr. Louls Jimal for shock and possible mrernnl‘ !injurie& His condition is said o be serious. A world record in radio and aviation was established early yestesday morning when Comdr. Richard E. Byrd's-plane, the Stars and Stripes, in flight. 3,000 feet above the icy wastes that surround the Bay of Whales, in the Antarctic, conducted two-way communication di- rect with the New York Times radio station in Timés Square. The distance between the plane and the receiver was 10,000 miles. It was the first time that 8n airplane in flight had sent and re- ceived messages over such a long dis- tance. It was 10:30 p.m. in New York when Operator Carl O. Peterson of the steamer City of New York, base ship of the expedition, called the New York Times on the 34-meter wave length. He said that Malcokm P, Hanson, radio chief of the expedition, would make a test flight in the plane Stars and Stripes at about 3:15 a.m. Eastern standard time, which 1s 8:15 p.m. 2t the Bay of Whales, in the land that Byrd hgs named “Little America.” “Listen in and try to hear the plane,” said the flash from the Far South. So, while the ether in the north temperate 2one was comparatively quist, with most of the broadcasters and amateurs fast asleep, Reginald Iverson, radio engineer at the Times station, saw that every- thing at his receiver was in shape to establish a record. He tuned the dial to the 34-meter channel, and at 3:15 am., sharp, the operator in the South Polar region kept his rendezvous with the metropolis of the world. Radioed Warning of Take-off. “The plane is now leaving the ice,” was the warning for ,New York to tune carefully, because just a slight turn of the dial over the breadth of a hair would cause New York to miss the plane. “Listen for WFC.” That is the call of the Stars and Stripes. Iverson shifted his dial slightly around the 34-meter mark. He picked up a signal. It was the characteristic 240-cycle note of the airplane flying | over the Antarctic. He cavesdropped as Hanson, an old- timer in wireless, adjusted and tested transmitter until 'the eléctrical meters revealed that it was operating to perfection. Then he called WHD, the New York Times, 10,000 miles up north. Iverson intercepted the call, which pen- etrated several climes and crossed the Equator on its flight to Manhattan. The transmitter on the seventeenth flafimnd of the Times Annex flashed “Go The plane heard the dots and dashes from the Times transmitter. New York was linked by an invisible chanmrel with Little America. Hanson sald: “Congratulations on longest two-way communication with an airplane in flight. Hr msg No. 1 de airplane Stars and Stripes to Commander S. C. Hooper, director of naval communica- tions, Navy Department, Washington, D. C.: Sincere regards to yourself and Naval Research Laboratory and entire Navy Department on occasion of long- est aircraft communication ever es-. tablished. We are in flight, 3,000 feet. over Little America, Bay of Whales, Auntarctica. Fine sunny night.” The dispatch was signed “Hanson.” All Words Picked Up. The transmission' ended at 3:28 a.m., York Advertising Club will be broadcast at 2 o'clock Monday afternoon. The municipal station, WNYC, and a chain of National Broadcasting Co. stations headed by WEAF, New York, will carry the ceremonies. TANKER LIMPS TO SAFETY. Two of Dannedaike's Crew go to Hos- pital in Bermuda. ST. GEORGES, Bermuda, January 26 (A).—The American tanker Danne- daike limped into port here today with . a dramatic tale of an attempted sea rescue which almost turned into a dis- ¢ aster for the rescuer. Badly buffeted, « with half her bridge torn away and with = makeshift steering apparatus, ‘thé ‘Vessel put in to send 2 of her crew of 32 to the hospital and to make repairs before . continuing her voyage from Beaumont, Tex., to Belgium. SILENCE HIDES FATE OF 85. Two Ships Unheard From After S O S; Trawler Missing. NEW YORK, January 26 (P)—Si- lence tonight hid the fate of the Brit- ish steamer Silver Maple, fifth vesscl this week to send out an S O S over!* the storm-swept Atlantic, whils the cutters Mojave and Tampa sped to her position 780 miles east of Boston, pos- ition 37:10 north 56:15 west. The plight of the Italian freigater Capo Vado, silent for 24 hours after she sputtered an S O S from a point some 750 miles east of Bermuda, also was a mystery. No details of her condition were given end there was no word that any ships were going to her rescue, except the British steamer Cleanthis which relayed the S O 8. Her position was given as latitude 31:23 north, longitude 48:46. ‘The Capo Vado was en route to Bal- timore with a crew of 25 or 30 men. Belief was expressed by the Coast | Guard that the fishing trawler Seiner, which had been fishing on Georges Banks and had not been heard from since January 13, had gone down with her crew of 20. This opinion was given after Coast Guard vessels had waged a vigorous search for the craft, which : apparently was blown far out to sea. ! The Silver Maple has a crew of 40 * men. She sailed from Oran January “ 15, for New York. Germany has more unemployed than 2 year ago. s 12 minutes after the message reported that the plane was about to go aloft. Iverson broadcast an acknowledgment that all words had been picked up. No Trepeats were necessary because Hanson sent each word twice and the signal was fairly strong, although nature tried to block the record by an unsuccessful at. tack of fading. A few minutes later Hanson ad. vised that he was about to shift the plane’s transmitter to function on the 65-meter wave. Silence followed. This BYRD'S PLANE MAKES RECORD IN 10,000-MILE RADIO MESSAGE Craft 3,000 Feet Over Antaretic Transmits’ to New York on 34-Meter Wave ' Length. wave did not reach New York. It was not an effective wave to cover such a long distance. At 4:15 a.m. Iverson again picked up the signals from the plane on the 34- meter channel, which this time suc- ~eeded in talking with the radio men at vhe Mussel Rock station of the Robert Dollar Co., 12 miles from San Fran- cisco, which reported to the New York Times as follows: “Mussel Rock Radio Station, Rab- urt Dollar Co. established two-way radio communication with Byrd plane Stars and Stripes, exchanging following messages single at 25 words per minute without difficulty: ‘WFC Fairchild plane Stars and Stripes, Bay of Whales, January 25, to Ralph M. Heintz, San Francisco: Congratula- tions to you on performance of your airplane transmitter on occasion of es- tablishing this world’s record for two- way and one-way aircraft communica- tion. We are 3,000 feet over Little America, Bay of- Whales, Antarctica, in Fairchild plane Stars and Stripes.” Signed Hanson. Mussel Rock replied: “To Hanson, airplane Stars and Stripes, WFC: Wonderful luck and I surely am proud to be so fortunate as to be a party to this remarkable accom- glls!kunent, Mussel Rock, per Fred Roe- ey The Transmitter Equipment. Radio men rate signal strength from 1 to 10; the latter figure denoting a very woud signal. Hanson reported on this that the Mussel Rock signal strength was 7, and Mussel Rock reported’ the intensity of the signal from the plane was of six-degree in- tensity. prats The radio transmitter that made the new record was built by Heinz ‘& Kauf mann at San Francisco. It is desgribed as a high-frequency and intermediate- frequency transmitter employing .one 50-watt oscillator tube, which is about as powerful, as far as electrical rating is concerned, as an ordinary incandes- cent lamp. The Stars and Stripes is equipped with what is termed a fixed doublet antenna, reaching from the ttige of both wings to the ta e fuselage. This is for short-wave trans- mission, while a trailing wire is utilized for . communication on the universal commercial wave of 600 meters. The installation is powered by an electrical generator coupled direct to the airplane engine. This is an innovation in air- plane radio. ‘The plane’s receiver, which picked up the signals from the Times’ station, is a special four-tube super-regenerative circuit for short-wave reception, de- signed by Malcolm P. Hanson and built by the National Electric Supply Com- pany of Washington, D. C. . Look for New Triumphs. So strong were the signals from the plaue and so slight the fading, the bane of short-wave radio, that. the Times' cperators are hopeful that they will pick up the plane's dispatches as the Star's and Stripes flies over the South Pole, provided the flight is made between midnight and 4 am, New York time, and 1if the proper wave is used to con- quer the obstacles that lurk in the radio channels that extend 10,000 miles from ‘the crossroads of the world” at Times Square to the world's most remote out- post, surrounded by snow and ice, 2,400 {l‘lfles from the nearest point of civiliza- on. Comdr. Hooper last night sent the fol- lowing message to Radio Officer Hanson of the Byrd expedition: )iy “Your message received by air from the air. Wonderful record and ‘inter- esting. Hope to receive one when you are over the South Pole. Envy you, as no sunny nights here now. Communi- cations and laboratory personnel join 1hn Sezarda to Comdr. Byrd and all ands.” OHID LIQUDR RNG BELEVED BROKEN Ten Are Arrested by U. S. Agents, Who Seize $60,000 in Rum. By the Associated Press. CLEVELAND, Ohio, January 26.—Ten men, alleged to have directed the im- portion of millions of dollars’ worth of Canadian beer and whisky into the United States, were arrested here to- night by special Federal agents, who raided three warehouses and confiscated $60,000 worth of liquor. The agents, 10 in number, who had been conducting a three-month spe- cial investigation, are said to have shattered one of the largest liquor rings ever discovered in Cleveland. One of the warehouses was a Govern- ment bonded warehouse, where the raid- ers sald they found 2,000 gallons of al- cohol marked with orders to hold it for the ring. | The liquors were cached in under- ground passages, reacfied through se- cret panels, the agents reported. One of them arrested was held a witness. The others gave their names as Harry Berner, Morris Komiserg, Mil- ton Sabad, Arthur Weiss, Julian Well, Samuel Grossman, Louis Cohen, Henry Rufl and James Perry, all of Cleveland, HALE AGAIN FOUND GULTY OF MURDER “King of Osage Hills,” Blamed in Reign of Terror, Gets Life Term. By the Assoclated Press. PAWHUSKA, Okla, January 26— ‘W. K. Hale, known as the “King of the Osage Hill” and alleged by the Gov- ernment to have been responsible for a reign of terror among Osage Indians several years ago, again was convicted of murder and sentenced to life. im- présonmenc in Federal Court here late today. Hale was tried for complicity in the killing of Henry Roan, an Osage tribes- man on whose life he carried a $25,000 insurance policy. He was convicted on the same charge previously, but won a retrial on an appeal. Nearly a score of mysterious and violent deaths were visited upon the wealthy Osage Indians over a period of several yeafs until Governmient agents fln?l]y brought about the arrest of Hale. . % THe reign of terror, as it became known, threw members of the tribe into a panic. Some of the Indians strung lights about their homes and posted from harm. TYPOTHETAE 0.K'S Resolution Urges Petitioning Congress to Pass Program for Construction.

Ambassador Dwight W. Morrow, men- tioned for the post of Secretary of State. in President-elect Hoover’s cab- inet, confirmed here yesterday that he | is returning to his post in' Mexico. . Morrow spent a half hour in conference with President Coolidge at the White House. and was later closeted for some time with Secretary of State Kellogg. He declined to comment upon the subject of his conferences, but an- nounced that he would leave Wash- ington tonizht for New York and woula begin &2 journey by rail to Mexico City from New York on Monday night. His White House call, Mr. Moryow said, had to do with paying his r ts to the President and taking leave of him incident to resuming his post. He ex- plained that his visit to Mr. Hoover in Florida was actually a matter of con- venience on the return from his vaca- tion in the Bahamas. The Ambassador requested not to bc | questioned by the press on matters of official duty, saying that it was a dan- gerous matter for an Ambassador to talk when on leave guards at night to protect themselves ' ;. 20% Is Off the Price Of Finest Saks Suits and O’Coats, Now!
