GANG EONS TAKE THO NORE LIVES Chicago Hoodlums Victims of “Firing Squad” in Under- world Row. B the Associated Press. CHICAGO, September 5.—A double murder, the fifth outbreak of gang guns in Chicago within a week, was commit- ted early today in the peaceful shadows of Jacob Riis Park, Fullerton and Nar- ragansett avenues. The victims were well known Wesl' Bide hoodlums—Cy Cawley, bomber, terrorist and “muscle ma and Willie McElligott, brother of the Thomas Me- | Elligott who was slain last Memorial day. The bodies, discovered by men on their way to work, lay on a strip of lawn bordering the park. Automatic pistols and sawed-off shotguns had been fired at close range. Connected With Other Deaths. ‘The gang significance of the crime was immediately apparent to members of the homicide squad. Thomas Mec- Engaged Elligott was found dead in the base- ment barroom of a West Madison stree* cafe early in the morning of May 30, & bullet through the heart. April 13 Willlam Clifford and Michael Riley, two of Thomas McElligott's pals, were found murdered behind a Cicero hotel known as the headquarters of Al (Scarfacc) Capone. All these murdered men were Asso- ciated, police said, in West Side gang life. Clifford, Riley and Cawley were known as bombers, terrorists and slug- gers. “They'd do anything to get the money,” as Deputy Police Commission- er Stege put it. In the hands of the two murdered today police found a dime and a nicke! —gang symbolism. that the victims were “cheap.” Cy Cawley, about 25 years old, had been picked up and questioned in con- nection with many of Chicago’s recent crimes. The gang massacre of last April, when seven men were shot down in a North Clark street garage, was one of them, but Cawley finally was re- leased. Cawley “Muscled In.” Willie McElligott, a vear or two younger than Cawley, was less known to police, who classified him as a minor hoodlum’ and gang member. Cawley's forte was to “muscle” into rackets which offered easy money. He gained a powerful place in a garage owners’ association recently, police said, by telling the association president to Police Court Judge Gus A. Schuldt and Miss Ann Varnon, 3300 Sixteenth | street, whose reported engagement was | confirmed yesterday. The wedding date | has not been announced.

Allen, president of the Fairfax County Chamber of Commerce, will | meet tonight with the board of directors | of the Arlington County Chamber of Commerce to discuss several matters of mutual interest, including plans for the participation of the latter body in the chamber of commerce day at the Fair- fax fair, September 12. | The Fairfax chamber is anxious to | make chamber of commerce day and the fair one of the most important fea- tures. If the present plans are carried | out the representatives of the chambers of commerce of Alexandria and Arling- | ton and Fairfax Counties will parade from Annadale to Fairfax on that day.| Several projects will be considered by the board tonight. The report of Louis C. Carl, chairman of the finance com- | mittee will be heard. Will Rogers’ Says: BEVERLY HILLS, Calif.—There has been an awful lot of discussions and writing on the subject, “Does a college education pay?” It did look awful doubtful for awhile, but the events of the last few days have shown that the old college boy has finally found his niche in the world of progress. Both boys who tled Bobby Jones in the first two days of golf at Delmonte had learned the mysteries of the mashie in four years of hard putting at some mod- ern institution of learning. And, just think, a short 10 years ago & golf course was as unknown to col- leges as a study hall is today. The fraternity pin is finally coming into its own. It's the ignorant that are in the bunkers. College literature will read: “Come to Purdue and we will improve your putting, years in Penn State and beat par,” “Dartmouth for distance,” “Harvard | who_secretly foster the war idea that THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1929. . BRIAND'S ORATORY STIRS ASSEMBLY Address Scoring War-Makers Brings Biggest Ovation Ever Given Premier. (Continued From First. Page.) had been qualified as a dream, Byt he was convinced that there should be closer tics between the nations of Eu- rope which are so close together geo- graphically and he wanted to bring this new regime of unity into being. No Concrete Plan Divulged. He did not divulge any concrete plan for accomplishing this great idea, but he appealed to all thie delegates to bring | it to the attention of their governments and to have it studied. Turning to The Hague court of inter- national justice, M. Briand scored a great success with the assembly when he affirmed that the nations must get into the habit of going before its judges Just as individuals now go before judges. “The nations must settle their dif- ferences pacifically,” he declared, “They | must abide by the court’s decision even when it is against them.’ France has already signed the com- pulsory arbitration clause of the court, but under the condition that the now | defunct Geneva protocol come into force. He said he hoped to affix France’s unconditional signature to it and pledged himself to do all in his power to have the French Parliament ratify the general act for arbitration of all disputes. Returning again to his cherished | theme of the League of Nations, which | furnished a kind of background for all his other remarks, M. Briand said he | thought the world did not sufficiently realize that the League had not only | prevented wars which threatened to | break out. but had actually stopped conflicts which had already begun. | . “That is an achievement unparalleled | in the history of the world,” he said. Rises to Heights of Oratory. It was when he scourged with his eloquence those forces and those peoples | M. Briand rose to super heights of ora- tory—which roused the whole assembly. He sald that the League is pursuing without mercy those who are responsi- ble for evils like opium and morphine, but what he still more wanted the League to do is to hunt down those who insidiously poisoned the minds of chil- dren and filled future generations with ideas of strife and conflict. | Raising both arms in gesture of | appeal, M. Briand sais t is to women of the world that I particulariy | address this appeal. i Tor Skilled > 'WASHING £ POLISHING | | 1 ‘ Ford Taxicab | ‘ Safety ‘ the peoples of other lands as well as of their own. See to it that they are taught that war is impossible and that peace must reign forever. “When that is ach cluded with great emotion, not be any need for the League covenant to mention reducing armaments.” Root Plan Approval Seen. The Assembly is expected to approve at the current meeting the reservations formulated by Elihu Root and Sir Cecil Hurst to ‘secure American £ the Permanent Court of International Justice, or the World Court, as it is more widely known. This action, which was made probable yesterday by the unanimous indorse- ment of the conference of World Court signatories approving the Root-Hurst formula, will leave only American rati- fication and aceeptance by the United States Senate in the way of America’s entry into The Hague tribunal. Some mystery attended the blanket indorsement given = the Root-Hurst formula by the tribunal signatories yes- terday in their secret session. It was known to have been argued by some that the America Senate should indi- cate its approval of the formula before any such action was taken. Rumor, more or less taclily denled, said Sir Eric Drummond, secreiary gen. eral of the League, assured the con- ference he had information the United States State Department was in accord with the formula and would seex its ratification by the American Senate. There was every reason to beifeve, he was sald to have declared, the reserva- tions expressed in the formula would meet the Senate’s approval Passed On to Assembly. In the line of this communication the conference, at which only 22 of 41 signatory states were represented, gave its immediate approval to the formula and passed it on to the Assembly of the League, whose indorsement was accept- ed as certain. Paul Hymans, Belgian forelgn min- | ister, advocated a closer linking of . the Kellogg-Briand peace pact Wwith the covenant of the League of Natlons. He held the Kellogg pact was infinit ly stronger than the League covel because it interdicted all gression, while the covenant of the | League left the door open for war when the council was unable to reach unan. imity as to the identity of the aggressor. He recommended also reinforcing of the Kellogg pact by a number of pra: tical measures which would include ex- tension of arbitration but would embody especlally a system of penalties against aggressor nations and a scheme of nnldncm assistance for countries men- aced.

Helium, now an industrial necessity for inflating dirigibles and nger balloons of the Los Angeles ype, was, he said, less than 20 years 2go, scarcely more than a chemical curlosity. The discovery of this gas, it was pointed out, was due x;:urely to chance. While observing a solar echgn visible in India in August, 1868, the French astronomer Janssen happened to ob- serve among the many bright lines that shot out from the sun’s disk one of yellow which proved to be the new element later named “helium” from the Greek “helios,” the sun. The gas was next traced to the stars, thousands of times as far away as the sun, but a uarter of a century elapsed before it was found upon the earth. The an- nouncement of the discovery on the earth of the colorless and odorless helium gas by Sir Willlam Ramsay in 1895, however, attracted little attention, for at that time no practical use for helium was known. It had no indus- trial val nd efforts were made to SEPTEMBER IS HOME-BUYING TIME We are unusually well prepared to meet the most exacting require- ments of house buyers in every section of the city and suburbs, both new and old houses that combine unusual charm, convenience and desirability 9( location, together with a price appeal that we believe well nigh irres e.
