- POLICEMEN PRAISE PRATT AT SESSION ‘Allen Is Rebuked by Inference but Not Named in Resolu- tion of Group. Resolution commending Maj. Henry G. Pratt, superintendent of police and rebuking by inference Robert J. Allen, suspended policeman, last night at a meeting of the Po- licemen’s Association. ‘The organization went on record as believing the department “has been subjected to ridicule, contempt and dis- repute for some time, mainly because & certain member has taken it upon himself to become indifferent and dis- obedient to the rules we are all bouna to obey as public servants; this same person has defled the orders and com- mands of his superior officers on more occasions than one.” Though not actually naming Allen, the resolutions added that “as a result of this eruption the Police Department now stands charged with corruption and almost every other charge imag- inable. Consclence does not make cowards of us all.” W. H. McGrath of the sixth pre- in offering the resolutions, said Maj. Pratt “is a man in whom the President of the United States has, be- cause of his patriotism, valor, fidelity and ability, placed special trust and confidence by an appointment to the rank of leutenant colonel in the Re- serve Corps of the Army.” Capt. Prank S. W. Burke of the first precinct, one of the chief speakers, pre- dicted that Congress would take favor- able action soon on a proposal to in- crease the pay of Washington police- men. He pointed out that the Board of Trade and the Chamber of Com- merce had approved the proposal. ‘The speaker explained the proposed increases would give the following sal- mries: Superintendent, $8,500; assistant sy tendent, $5.500; inspectors, $4,- ; captains, $3,600; lleutenants, $3,- ; sergeants, $2,750, and privates, ARSI SIA 0 8% Oharged in West Ham, England, court with being drunk recently, Alfred W.

When one realizes that La Argentina s having to schedule extra programs in New York to try to fill he demands for tickets for her several recitals originally arranged, it is not surprising to find approval of her pro- gram in Washington. Except for Pav- | lowa, however, there is no dancer who has held an audience in Washington within recent years, after a generous program, to urge the dancer to give an encore. A spontaneity in the applause re- warded all her numbers. ‘Thjs dancer has remarkable mastery over the castanets, achieving amazing variety in tone color and eloquent ex- pression with them. The intricate “heel- work,” which is a feature of Spanish dancing, also is clean-cyt and clear in its staccato tapping. But aside from her command of these techmical require- ments, it is in the supreme art of showmanship and the interpretation through personality that La Argentina has the szcret of her great success. She appeared in 10 dances yesterday, each one a subtle etching of a different mood. Her most dramatic. number was probably the fire dance from De Falla's “El Amor Brujo.” The comic element was at its boisterous best as the gauche peasant girl in “Lagarterana,” a dance from the Province of Toledo. Thé im- pressionistic charm that emphasized ro- mantic beauty was dominant in the moonlit calm suggested in Albeniz’ “Cordoba.” The bolero of Iradier in- troduced a more classical note into the dance interpretation and Valverde’s “La Corrida” gave the artist fullest sway to display the completeness of her ability as a mimic. In the seguidillas, without accompaniment other than her own c{;s',encw. La Argentina was at her sub- tle best. Excellent accompaniments were played by Miguel Berdion, who also mv\d@d some Spanish solo selections pleasingly on the piano during intermissions be- tween the dances. It was one of the seen in several seasons. v = H. F. —i ® Citizenship Is Denied Pastor. —Because he expressed views war and the bearing of arms, and sald he was unwilling to fight, the Rev.
