MRS. MORSE LOSES CONTROL OF HEIRS Uncle to Supplant Grand- mother, Held Old Fashioned by Ryan Pair. Bpecial Dispatch to The Btar. NEW YORK, May 7.—Surrogate Foley decided yesterday in favor of Elinor M. Ryan, 18 years old, and Joseph J. Ryan, 16, grandchildren of the late Thomas Fortune Ryan, financier, for the removal of their maternal grand- mother, Mrs. Ellen M. Morse of Wash- ington, as their guardian. They said she was too old-fashioned in_her train- ing methods. Surrogate Foley ap- inted as guardian in place of Mrs. Kfnne, a paternal uncle, Clendennin J. Ryan, of 858 Fifth avenue. ‘The children had suggested that the court make Herbert H. Vreeland of 110 West Fifty-second street, who has been co-guardian with Mrs. Morse, as their sole guardian.. Mrs. Morse had suggested that Clendennin J. Ryan be added as a third guardian. Get Principal at 30. Elinor M. Ryan and Joseph J. Ryan are the children of the late Joseph J. Ryan, youngest son of Thomas Fortune Ryan. Until their twenty-first year the ome from a portion of the Thomas . Ryan estate is to be spent for their education and maintenance. At 21 they are to receive the accumulations of income and at 30 they are to receive the principal of their bequests. ‘The “infants,” as they were judicially referred to in the proceeding, com- plained that Mrs. Morse, their grand- mother, who is 74 years old, “has had no opportunity of learning present day methods of living.” They asked for the appointment of a guardian “of a more suitable .fie and a greater knowl- edge of the world.” Mrs. Morse replied that since her grandchildren have be- come heirs to large fortunes, certain cousins and uncles have taken an in- terest in them not previously shown. She added that since July, 1929, the estate had not co-operated with her re- garding the care of her charges, and that she was the only person her grand- daughter had as chaperone. Payments Backward, She Says. Mrs. Morse, who said that the estate had not been forwarded to her the $650 a month allowed for the care of her two grandchildren and that she had been compelled to defray this cost out of her own funds, submitted an itemized account of the expenses incurred Jan- uary 1, 1927, to December 13, 1929, She received §18,200, with an extra allow- ance of $12,900 for trips.

CARTHAGE, Tunisla, May 7—A brilliant pageant began today to unfold itself in this ancient city as 16,000 pil- grims to the Roman Catholic Eucha- ristic Congress gathered for the five days’ ceremonies. A first glimpse of the splendor of the occasion was had this morning when Cardinal Lepicier, the papal delegate, with a retinue of high ecclesiastical at- tendants went to pay his respects to the Bey of Tunis. Eleven more great ships arrived at Tunis, bearing their quotas of pil- grims. Among them was the Araguaya with a large party of Americans, When these delegates, among the last to come, had completed their journey, the scene was prepared for the formal opening of -the world-wide Congress at which Cardinal Lepicier will read the papal bull. ‘Twenty-seven centuries of history looked down upon the vast assemblage which thronged this little village, once the greatest city in the Western world. Carthage, which at its zenith had a population of a million persons, today has but about 200 houses, mostly the homes of Arabs. The pilgrims will tread ground prob- ably more deeply soaked with human life blood than any other similar area on earth. Only Rome, it is safe to say, seen more Christians massacred and martyrized. Modern history contains no outstand- ing records concerning activities at Carthage. From 533 AD. until the end of the seventh century its posses- sion was handed about frequently. In view of these numerous wars it is not 80 hard to visualize the slaughter of 450,000 inhabitants of ancient Carthage in the six days which had marked Rome's final triumph in 146 B.C. By the Associated Press. MENOMINEE, Mich, May 7.—The city of Menominee today had become a shareholder in the factory which is the principal industry, through a compro- mise agreement with heirs to the estate of the late Marshall B. Lloyd, million- aire philanthropist and baby carriage manufacturer, By the will of Lloyd the city was to have received eventually the whole $1,617,000 estate, to be used for a free medical clinic, but the will of the “baby carriage king” would not permit this final accounting until all the 14 heirs administration of justice, which is the object of the organization. At the session of the Organized State Bars, Thomas C. Ridgway of Los Angeles, who is chairman of the con- ference of Bar Association delegates, presided. A report was rendered by Charles A. Beardsley of Oakland, presi- dent of the California State Bar, which has an income of $90,000 a year avail- able for currym? on corrective studies and campaigns for the purposes of the bar. There is a new awakening of ethical conscience among the lawyers of !M‘ S{w. he said, as a result of these activities. Chief Justice C. T.

A_special census, listing more than 100,000 professional engineers through- the United States, is being under- taken by the American Engineering Councll, it was announced today. Civil, electrical, mechanical and min- ing engineers—the four classes given in the Government's enumeration—have proven objectionable to the professional men because none of the titles clearly or accurately describe the manner in which they make their living. Many of the complaints came from agricultural, automotive, chemical, heating and ven- tilating engineers. Wmfe the new census will not cover every professional engineer, the council lains, the results of the study will be to ineers andi.to .technical imstitutions which would be otherwise dependent, the less detalled facts Government, Class were dead.

For the first time this scz.on at the Arts Club an entire program of Latin American music was presented by na- tives of Latin American countries last | night. The club auditorium was filled to its last seat. ‘Three soloists appeared, one for the first time in_a public program. This was Senora Dona Rosa de H. Viteri, wife of the Minister from Ecuador to the United States. She presented two groups of piano solos, the first of which was_entirely -devoted to popular music by Ecuadorean composers. Preceding her numbers Dr. Leo Rowe, director general of the Pan-American Union, talked about each composition, ex- plaining particularly the peculiar rhythms, such as the pasillo and the yarabi and the type of work known as a “cansion.” ‘In the latter part of the group the pianist played a modern- ized version of the “Yarabi” which, in simpler form, was her first number. It was one of the most interesting of the evening. The soloist has a nice tone quality and facile and sympa- thetic interpretation of these native works. Her reading of one Chopin work later on the program was unusual in interpretation. ‘The other instrumentalist, given the honor of opening and closing the pro- gram, was Horacio Avila, violoncellist, of Mexico. Accompanied very ably at the piano by Senora Avila, the cellist played a Chilean melody by Villa- Lobos first and one of his own compo- sitions, “O Cruel Amor.” He was re- ceived with attentive appreciation and applause. Senor Avila has a warm, ringing tone and the native knack in interpreting Latin music. He later played effectively a Spanish dance by Granados. The youngest artist of the evening was the little Mexican soprano, Aurelia Colomo. Possessed of a high, flute-like voice, this singer has all the qualifica- tions for developing into a real artist. She has evident appreciation of the proper effects to be achieved in tech- nique, and, above all, quite obviously the love of singing for singing’s sake. She is very earnest in her business of singing and was rewarded with pro- longed applause, responding with & repetition of the Chilean folk song, “Ay, Ay, Ay,” which she sings particularly well. H.

Due to the inability of a coroner’s jury to reach a verdict yesterday, Dr. J. Ramsay Nevitt, District coroner, to- day made plans to have another jury convene tomorrow at 11 am. to in- vestigate the death of James Campbell, colored, 26 years old. who was shot by Policeman Frank W. Sandford Sun- day. After hearing the testimony of wit- nesses involved yesterday the first jury stood 5 to 1 in favor of exonerating Policeman Sandford, who is attached to the fifth preeint. The jury delib- erated for two hours, Jurors said after- ward that a colored member of the panel caused the deadlock by his in- sistance that Policeman Sandford be held for a grand jury investigation. Sandford testified he fired on Camp- bell in self-defense when four or five colored men attempted to overpower him as he started to arrest a man named Francis Wills for intoxication and disorderly conduct in Navy place near Seventh street southeast. Sev- eral witnesses, including a Marine Corps sergeant, corroborated Sandford's statement. Lieut. Edward J. Kelly, chief of the homicide squad, declared his investi- gation convinced him Sandford was Justified in using his revolver. Campbell’s police record, introduced | in ‘evidence, revealed he had been ar- | rested more than a dozen times and had served several jail sentences. CLAFLIN Optician—Optometrist 922 14th St. N.W.

Kuhn and Thomas P. Hickman, Not in Community Chest. It was explained by speakers at the meeting that Casualty Hospital derives no support from the Community Chest, administers to numerous charity patients, and is faced by a constant increase in maintenance cost. Fertich pointed out that the newly housed hospital is the only one in the Northeast section and by virtue of its central locstion must become one of the city's most useful institutions. In particular, Mr. Fertich said, it was the goal of the management to complete the hospital in time to serve the crowds expected for the bicentennial celebra- tion of the birth of George Washington here in 1932, “Casualty Hospital,” Fertich con- tinued, “is conveniently located for resi- dents of nearby Maryland and many victims of automobile accidents outside the District are received there.” Canvass teams will be organized and a city-wide drive launched in the near future., An account of the history of the hos- pital from its earliest days was given the meeting by Evan H.
