PREERNASSRGRE: - AL A VETERANS SAY PARTY BLOCKS INDEPENDENCE Filipinos Declare Majority Has Converted Government Into Oligarchy. By the Associated Press. MANILA, April 16.—The charge that its more than 20 years in power the acionalista Consolidado party had converted the Philippine government into an oligarchy and that this is a pow- erful motive for refusal of independence the United States was made by the ilippino Veterans’ Association yester- day in a letter to Senator Elpidio Quirito, chairman of a special legislative ‘committee on taxation. “It is absurd and ridiculous” said the letter, “to demand independence while all the time we cannot even maintain a government under the United States. “What we need is more common sense in‘ the management of public affairs.” ‘The letter charged that Senator Ser- Osmena, majority leader, and his followers were wasting the money of the Filipinos in trying to imitate the “multi- millionaire American Government.” It s also msserted that there was urgent meed for reducing government expense. —_— SIGNED BY HINDENBURG German President Approves Chan- cellor’s Agrarian Tax Bills.

Philatelists Say “Provisional Issue by Postmasters” Is Worth $10,000. Miss Natalie Sumner Lincoln, editor | |of the D. A. R. Magazine and well { known Washington writer of detective stories, never got the thrill out of weav- | ing a mystery plot that she did the | other day in discovering among some | | old family letters a rare stamp, said by | | philatelists to be worth $10,000 or more. | | The stamp, one of the “provisional | { issues by postmasters” in 1845, of which there are very few known to be in ex- | istence, has been in the Lincoln'family | for 85 years. For the last nine years, its existence and value unknown to Miss Lincoln, it has reposed in a wicker bas- ket in her “work shop” as she sought | new plots for her yearly mystery novels. Finds Stamp on Letter. Miss Lincoln was rummaging through | the basket the other day looking over some family letters that she had kept aside after the death of her mother. One envelope, particularly, held her at- | tention, owing to the peculiar stamp it | bore It was a white, oblong sticker on which was printed in black letters at the top, James M. Buchanan and beneath it, 10 cents. The stamp sppeared to be uncancel- | ed but just at its left in red letters the postmaster had stamped “paid.” At the Post Office Department the stamp was identified as one of the “pro- visional issues by postmasters,” this par- | ticular stamp having been issued by the | Baltimore Post Office. Owing to its wonderful preservation a high appraisal | has been placed upon it. Even the ¢avelope to which it Is attached is un- aded. The letter in question was addressed | to Miss Lincoln’s father, Dr. Nathan | Smith Lincoln, a distinguished officer | of the Civil War and for many years | a prominent physiclan in Washington, who died in 1898. Dr. Lincoln at the time, in 1848, was a senior at Dartmouth THE EVEN EDITOR OF D. A. R. MAGAZINE OF 1845 VINTAGEl NATALIE SUMNER LINCOLN. College. The letter was from his uncle, Dr. Nathan Ryno Smith of Baltimore, & famous surgeon of his day, sending his regrets that he could not attend the graduation exercises at Dartmouth. Mother Preserved Letters. Miss Lincoln’s mother, the late Mrs. Jeanne Gould Lincoln, who was a popu- lar novelist. had carefully preserved most of the early family letters. As the years passed the value of this rare old stamp increased with them. The issue is peculiat in that, so far | as known, only & few postmasters issued such stamps in that year. Those known to be in_existence are issues of the Baltimore, Alexandria, Va ; Annap- olis, Md., and New York post offices and one by a little post office in New Hampshire. Philatelists who have seen the stamp are enthusiastic over its fine state of preservation. Miss Lincoln, a native of Washington, has been active in Daughters of the American Revolution circles for a num- ber of years and for the last 10 years | has edited the official magazine of the natfonal society. Her brother, G. Gould | Lincoln, is the political writer of The Evening Star. Miss Lincoln resides at 3104 Hawthorne street. SISTER CORNELIA DIES AT ST. ANN'S ASYLUM Mother Superior Long Known for | D. C. Charitable Work. Funeral Tomorrow. Sister Cornelia, mother superior of St. Ann’s Infant Asylum, 2300 K street, long known in Washington for her charitable work, died last night at the asylum after a prolonged illness. For seven years she had been in charge of the staff of Sisters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul, who managed the institution. Eleven years before that she had been connected with the asylum for an extended period. Funeral services will be held tomor- row at St. Stephen’s Catholic Church, | where the pastor, Rev.

Present Mrs. Moody to Enter European Contests Shortly. NEW YORK, April 16 (N.ANA).— ‘A girl can take up three careers, work at each of them seriously, like them all | equally, and still have enough time left over to do things.” | The voice of authority speaks, through | that bundle of energy and accomplish- | ment, Miss Helen Wills. That is, she is Miss Helen Wills if you are addressing her from the realm of art. If you are talking from the sports world she is Mrs. Frederick 8. Moody. ‘And if you are just hailing her from no world in particular,’ she is Mrs. Moody, too. In the Grand Central Art Galleries of this city where she is exhibiting 29 of her sketches that critics pronounce as lively as Helen herself, the charming Californian explained how she keeps her three careers—artist, tennis cham- plon and housekeeper—going at one and the same time. Likes All Her Careers. “In the first place,” she said, “I like them éxactly the same. I have break- fast at 8 in the morning. Then I do the ordering for my home. No, 1 do not cook breakfast. I'm afrala I couldn’t because cooking is an art in itself and I'm not yet up to it. My mornings are given to tennis and to painting or drawing, and most of my afternoons, too. “Can 1 play tennis and take care of my house in the same morning? Oh, yes, because my home is very simple. Its done in glazed chintz—a few pieces 1 of furniture that are antiques, the rest modern. It's really easy and such fun! ! “My evenings, of course, are for my ! husband. And week ends we usually go sailing in Mr. Moody's boat. He is just as enthusiastic about sailing as I am about tennis. He likes tennis, but | he'’s not so good at it. Do I beat him? Well, if you mean do I beat him at ten- nis—I do.” Here Miss Wills indulged im one of her rare smiles that lights up her face with its coat of sun tan au naturelle like & rosy lamp in a dusky room. “How long do I expect to keep up my t...nis?” Two deep-blue eyes twinkled out from beneath the brim of a beige sports hat. “Until I'm too old to use & racket. But one is never too old, you know, to use & paint brush or a draw- ing pencil. That is where my second career comes in handy, And my third, May 18 Mrs. Moody will defend her tennis title at the tournament in Paris. The third week in June she will compete for first honors at Wim- bledon, England. “No,” she said, and seemed to enjoy the puzzled look on a large circle of faces, “Mr. Moody is not Pklnl his FOR GIRL HELD BY HELEN WILL JAPANESE GIRLS SPEND BUSY DAY Round of Entertainments Held for Four “Envoys of Gratitude.” The four Japanese girls who came to Washington bringing thanks for Amer- ican aid to Japan after the earthquake of 1923 were occupied today with a busy round of entertainments.

HOLDS ISLAND NOT READY FOR ITS INDEPENDENCE Former Acting Governor General of Philippines Gives Views in Radio Talk. 1s | BY the Assoclated Press. NEW YORK, April 16.—Speaking on the “Duty of the United States With Regard to Philippine Independence,” over the Columbia broadcasting system last night, Newton W. Gilbert, former acting governor of the Philip- pines, declared that the islands are not_yet prepared for independence. “The masses of the Pilipino people are untutored and have little knowledge of world or government affairs,” Mr. Gil- bert said. “There is a small minority who are educated and a smaller minor- ity still who know something of govern- ment who are anxious to be in control of the situation. “If we should scuttle the islands, as is proposed, we will leave a great mass of people at the mercy of the few politicians whom, I am bound to say, are chiefly interested in their own personal welfare and success.” ‘The Philippines also are economically unprepared for independencs e sald. pointing out that the . at of money which can be raisea through taxation has reached its limit. “Until the islands are so developed that there is a larger amount of prop- erty to support the tax, it cannot be increased,” ded. An independent government in the islands, he asserted, would be unable to assume a number of functions of gov- ernment which they do not now finance, “The right solution of the Filipino question,” he said, “is to provide defl- | nitely for a long term of years which HELEN WILLS Please understand Mrs. Moody on this vacation separation. It is not a mari- tal vacation. On the contrary, it is merely & mutual desire between the younger marrieds of this generation not to terfere with one another so that marriage may be a happy privilege in- stead of & painful duty. A man—of all people—wanted to know for his paper what Mrs. Moody thought about having a family and all that. With a warm flush and consid- erable spirit, Helen Wills informed him that families were her own personal | business and she was making no public | expression about them. A moment later | she was chatting with a friend about ' the family which lives just down the hill from her home. | “They have seven children,” she sald, “and they play in our yard often.” Helen likes children.
