By the Associated Press. MADRID, January 2—King Al- fonso played the part of a traffic police- man for a little while Sunday after- noon, with Premier Primo De Rivera as his chief sssistant. The King and the dictator between them quickly un- tangled a traffic jam which had the regular policemen baffled. . The King's;automobile was caught in a jam on thé fashionable Pardo Drive when another car broke down, causing congestion ‘and a snarl of hundreds of automobiles and carriages. The King stepped out and took charge. ‘Then appeared another - volunteer of forceful mien, who proved to the premier, also caught in the same jam near the King. The two gave orders, made regular traffic signals, and soon restored traffic. They then entered their respective automobiles and re- HEAVY WIND DELAYS MAIL PLANE PILOTS Merrill Requires Five Hours to Fly Route Usually Covered in Two Hours. Airmail pilots on the Pitcairn mail line through this city found heavy go- ing last night when they encountered southwest winds which over a portion of the line reached velocities of 75 to 80 _miles per hour. ‘The hardest battle was_ fought by Pllot Dick Merrill and his flying squir- rel mascot between Richmond and Greenshoro, N. C,, early this morning. Ordinarily Merrill flies this distance in about an hour and 55 minutes. The high winds of this morning, however, | were directly against him and he was in_the air approximately 5 hours. ‘The squirrel carried by Merrill is his second mascot from the flying squirrel family, The first went A. W. O. L. last Fall, Merrill reported. The second uirrel recently was sent him by friends. It was delivered to the Rich- mond office while Merrill was away and was turned out of its cage by the office force. ~Immmediately urgent messages began to go out. over the airmalil tele- type system begging Merrill to come and get his squirrel, which had gone on a rampage, had bitten one of the pilots and was eating up office equipment. ‘The wind reached its peak at Bolling Field at midnight last night, when weather observations showed a velocity of 55 miles per hour from the South- ‘west at 2,500 feet altitude. .| WATERWAYS SCHEME HIT.

N > STAR, WASHINGTON, CORSAIR ENTERS “ GEODETIC SURVEY| Morgan’s Yacht Will Be Used in Charting Work Off Florida. Years of wandering through far seas and breasting the waves of romance -and -high adventure have brought the palatial Corsair, private yacht of J. Pierpont Morgan, to the prosaic berth of a seeker after the truth of configura- tions of the ocean's bottom in the| hands of sailors of the Coast and Geo- detic ‘Survey. The yacht today was formally trans- ferred to the flag of the Department of Commerce at Brooklyn, N. Y., under the name Oceanographer and was placed under the command of Capt. F. L. Peacock. She will sail immediate- ly to Norfolk. which has been desig- nated as her home port, and will be used during the Winter on ocean bot- tom charting work off the Pensacola entrance to Florida waters. Once before the private yacht of the New York millionaire has been in| the service of the United States. She was used by the ‘Government during the World War at a time when shipping facilities were imperatively needed. The gift of Mr. Morgan, according to the Commerce Department, will save the Government the immediate expendi- ture of $450,000 for a vessel of similar type, as there is urgent need for a new ship to facilitate surveys of ocean depths by means of the recently per- fected fathometer and other devices widely used in hydrographic work. “T can assure you,” Secretary of Com- merce Lamont wrote Mr. Morgan, “that this ship, which means so much to you and your family, will have excellent and sympathetic care, and I can also as- sure you t,h-l:l .{‘h'l wéu u{ve ltv_'ery use- ful purpose is department.

Changes in configuration of the sea bottom have made many apparently clear areas unsafe and created new angers. o T';\'e ship always has been a credit to the best traditions of the sea. Dur- ing her wanderings over the world she has anchored in almost e\‘er{v port. She was built in Newburg, N. Y., in 1899, with a gross tonnage of 1,136, a length of 270 feet and & beam of 33.3 feet.

The couple were on their way South, where Mr, Murray hoped to find work. A. W.

He furnished them enough gas to get them back to Alexan- dria, where mother and baby are reported doing well. LABOR BODY TO HELP Federationist Says Second Attack on Race's Industrial Problem ‘Would Be Training. ‘The American Federation of Labor is described editorially in this month's issue of the American Federationist as standing ready to help the Negro to organize and raise his standards. ‘The publication, of which William Green, president of the federation, is editor, said the first attack upon the industrial problem of Negroes was by organization and the second by voca- tional training. Discussing at National Negro Labor Conference, sponsored by the Sleeping Car Porters’ Union, to be held in Chi- cago this month, the editorial said: “Organization is the way to status in industry, higher wages, just and honest working _conditions, shorter hours of work. These things are essential to higher social and political standing. “Trade union membership is open to all Negroes. The majority of trade unions accept Negroes as members, but when regulations are interposed, the rules of the American Federation of Labor provide that Negro workers may apply for a charter direct from the American Federation of Labor.” TWO KILLED IN WAX BLAST Third Victim Seriously Burned in Hospital Explosion.

SCOTT NEARING Former Professor Also Quits Liberties Union and Gar- land Fund Boards. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, January 2.—From Roger Baldwin the New York Times has ob- tained information that Dr. Scott Near- ing, whose radical views cost him pro- fessorships in the University of Penn- sylvania and Toledo University, has been expelled from the Communist arty. " He also has resigned from the board of directors of the Civil Liberties Union | || and the board of trustees of the Garland ind. Baldwin, a_member of both boards, said that Dr. Nearing had resigned, and added: “I am not a Communist nor in the confidence of the Communist organiza- tion, but a member of the party who should know told me that Dr. Nearing had been expelled by the central com- mittee three weeks ago.” Plans Research Work. 1In his letter of resignation sent to the Garland Fund, which gives financial support _to liberal and radical organiza- tions, Dr. Nearing explained that he planned to devote his time to research, writing and speaking. Possible reasons for his expulsion from the Communist party were seen in the fact that while on the board of the Gar- land Fund he had voted to give aid to | the conference for Progressive Labor Ac- | tion, an organization opposed by the Communists, and had written a thesis on imperialjsm which was said by Com- munist leaders to deviate from the line of their party tenets. Shuns Modern Refinements. Dr. Nearing's friends say that in re- cent years he has adopted an extremely simple mode of life, coarre clothes, eating only the simplest foods ln‘n;i shunning all refinements of modern ving. He held a professorship at the Whar- ton School of Economics at the .Uni- versity of Pennsylvania from 1906 until 1915, when he was dropped because of his radical activities.
