From Paramaribo Col.| Lindbergh will fly on September 25 | back to this city and thence to Mara- cay, Venezuela, on the next day.

That is $10,000.000 more than Great Britain's enlarged annual share of the | Young plan reparations payments as| agreed on at The Hague after Philip | Snowden’s sensational battle for a ntwi eal. | Visitors from Europe and the British dominicns accounted for only 20 per | cent of the tourist crop; the rest were Americans. “London” Symphony Given.

State and Federal capitols have ruined 48 towns and cities in this country. No town has ever survived a capi- tol. So, as I see it, to strike oil is the only salvation.

ADOPT RESOLUTION ON CALHOUN CASE Universal Alliance Members | Express Views on Publicity Involving Society. Prompted by the indictment Friday ot W, Clark Noble, well known scultor, his wife and three others, charged with conspiracy to blackmail Capt. and Mrs. C. C. Calhoun, of social prominence here, the. executive committee of the Universal ‘Alliance adopted & unanimous motion to make public their views of Capt. and Mrs. Calhoun. The recording secretary, Mrs. William Wolff Smith, of the Universal Alliance, which sought to erect a mothers’ me- morial, and around the construction of which the controversy centers, yester- day issued the following statement, signed by Wayne Kendrick, certified public accountant and official account- ant of the District: “On account of the reference which has been made to the Universal Al- liance and the Mothers’ Memorial in the recent publicity regarding the in- dictment of Mr. W. Clark Noble and his associates charging him and them with attempting to blackmail Capt. and Mrs. C. C. Calhoun, I feel, as auditor of that organization, jmpelled to submit the following statement: “I have been the auditor of the Uni- versal Alliance and the Mothers’ Me- morial since its incorporation and have been very familiar with its work. The threat, as charged in the indictment by the defendants to make public the fact that Mrs. Calhoun and her husband, Capt. C. C. Cathoun, had received financial benefits from the above-| mentioned organization, is most cruel, unjust and utterly without the slightest foundation. My records and the can- celed checks show that Mrs. Calhoun and her husband have contributed large sums of money in cash—in fact, ove $60,000—from their own private funds to the work of the above-mentioned or- ganization, Mrs. Calhoun having do- nated the larger part. In addition, Capt. Calhoun has recently tendered a magnificent site consisting of five acres of “ery valuable ground for the, pro- poscd memorial. “The threat was all the more ex- cusable as the records of the above- mentioned organization, by the direc- tion of the executive committee, were | always and still are open for inspection | by those interested.” (Signed) WAYNE KENDRICK, The motion passed by the Universal Alliance also pointed out that “in the | account of Mr. Samuel W. Hardy, agent | of the Department of Justice, 0 had | charge of the case, and who, with lni associate, conducted the arrest of the defendants, it was stated by each of | the defendants, individually and col- | lectively, that there were no papers or | letters of any kind derogatory to Capt. {and Mrs. Calhoun to be delivered, and | that no such papers had been prepared. | -< had been previously claimed by the defendan 2oy | B.

Bride, the com- mission’s general counsel. With the assistance of the Depart- ment of .Justice, Bride has made_an exhaustive investigation to determine whether the transaction was in conflict | with the La Follette anti-merger law, which forbids a foreign corporation to own a controlling intercst in a Wi ington utility. inquiry, however, it was learned, has thus far tailed to | produce all of the information desired. | Orders Inquiry Continued. The Department of Justice's report | on the result of its investigation, re- ceived by the commission Friday, was | expected to furnish sufficient evidence | to guide the officials in reaching a de- cision whether tka stock transfer met | all requireryents of the La Follette law. After stuaving the report today, th commission found it to be a prelini‘nary and incomplete document and instructed | Bride to continue the inquiry. Bride | immediately made arrangements for a | conference with J. Edgar Hoover, direc- tor of the Bureau of Investigation of the Department of Justice. | Although the report is being guarded with utmost secrecy it was said at the | District Building that it contains much information of value but that certain | details will have to be developed further | before the commission can reach a final | decision as to the legality of the sale.

About 10,000 are expected to leave the country this year. i Brazil heads the list of the countries of destination, a large proportion of the emigrants going there for work on the coffee plantations or to take up land offered at reasonable terms. The Philippirie Islands are another goal for many Japanese. Other popular destina- tions are the. South Seas, the East Indies, Peru and Central American countries. During the 20-year period 11 Japanese went to Guam and 6 to Borneo. Spe- cially incorporated companies make it their business to encourage emigration, arranging to send the settlers and often lending them enough money to start working their land. These companies are in close contact with the shipping concerns, which make large profits transporting emigrants to various coun- tries bordering on the Pacific.
