WISCONDUCT LAD TOFEDERAL WDGE La Guardia Wants Justice Department Records Produced. Charging misconduct, Representative La Guardia, Republican, of New York yesterday introduced a resolution in the House calling upon Attorney General Mitchell for information he may have as to the manner in which Federal Judge Harry B. Anderson of the West- ern Tennessee district has handled bankruptcy and other cases. Informed in Memphis of the New Yorker's action, Judge Anderson said the resolution “comes as a shock and a t surprise to me,” but that he ‘was “confident of the ultimate outcome and assured of vindication.” Citizens Complained. La Guardia said he had waited “patiently” for action by the Depart- ment of Justice on complaints against the judge by citizens of Memphis, but that “none had been forthcoming.” The resolution would call specifically for in- formation on persons charged with narcotic law violations who defaulted | and failed to appear for tria] and whose | bonds were later reduced. l It also would seek reports in the pos- session of the department concerning the failure of the American Savings Bank & Trust Co. along with “any record of loans made by the bank to Judge Anderson or members of his family.” Some Information Anonymous. Representative Taylor, Republican, ‘Tennessee, inquired if the information against the judge was “anonymous.” La Guardia replied: ufl"somc of it and some is easily iden- ed. “There is nothing anonymous in the fact that this judge requires receivers in bankrupt estates to deposit in the American Savings Bank & Trust Co. the funds of the bankrupt. “There is nothing anonymous in the fact that a certain man was repeatedly named receiver and that he did not account in many bankrupt estates, and to this date there has been no per accounting in many -cases w! Te- sulted in losses to citizens, many in my own city.” BURNS MAY PROVE FATAL. Janitor Injured in Explosion at Apartment House. Jesse Jackson, 29 years old, colored, received burns, which are expected to prove fatal in an explosion last night in the basement of an apartment house in the 4800 block of Georgia avenue, where he is employed as a janitor. Jackson, police say, poured a small quantity of gasoline on a fire in an incinerator and the liquid flared up, burning him about the face and hands. Jackson was rushed to Walter Reed Hospital by Patrolman A. H. Poole in the emergency car of No. 13 precinct and was treated at that hospital by Dr. John Gallagher. He was later removed to Emergency Hospital, where his con- dition is said to be critical. R. ). HOAGE TO SPEAK. Commission Official to: Explain Operation of Compensation Act. Robert J.

The event was one of a series sponsored by the Community Institute. The first K\‘n of the nrzgram nted graceful gymnastic effects. real dancing began with Miss St. Denis’ interpretation, “Japanese Flower Ar- | rangement.” The dance was excellently conceived, balanced in action, decorative in the extreme and original. It was really a miniature ballet sketch. The costumes were unusually beautiful. The little assisting dancer who first appeared in a costume of smoky tones, with the softly glowing lantern in her hand as she posed monientarily before the great gold screen, might have been a Jaj nese print brought to life. The other dancers fitted perfectly into the picture and St. Denis herself was at her best, pre- | ‘The making a stunning study, especially as she was motionless for a second with the huge umbrella as her background after she had unfurled it. Other vivid dances of Oriental nature, in which Miss St. Denis seems unusually sym- pathetic, were the ‘“Javanese Court Dance,” with its complicated writhings, and “Bas-Relief from Angkor Vat,” her most amusingly human selection. She made a lovely picture in “White Jade” earlier in the evening. Although the audience seemed ap- preciative of every number, applause of genuine warmth was first noticeable after the ticularly charming dance duet by Marian Chace and Lester Shafer. Miss Chace, who in private life is Mrs. Shafer, {8 a Washington girl. The mere fact of her being a native nere, however, would not account com- pletely for the persistence of the ap- plause that demanded an encore and received it. The two danced well to- gether and their “Idyll” was aptly named. Of the group dances, “Valse Exstase,’ EW WINDOW SHADES —add to e of your o o them to SAVE YOU MONEY it N.W.
