WEST POINT CADETS HEAR PEACE DUTES Hurley ' Points Out Today’s Needs for Service in Ad- dress to Graduates. By the Associaied Press. - WEST POINT, N. Y., June 12— Patrick J. Hurley, Secretary of War, in presenting commissions to 241 members of the graduating class of the United States Military Academy today told them their services to ths country in times of peace rivals their service in wa: “The purpose of the institution.” he said. “is not to create militarists. It do>s aim to create leaders who will maintain the peace and safcty of the Nation. Leadership in the Army of the United States today requires far more than military skill. Under our national defense policy, the leaders of our Army are called upon to consider and solve social and economic problems in addi- tion to providing for the military de- * fense of the Nation and leading its Army in time of national em:rgency.” He cited among peace-time services . of West Point graduates the building of the Congressional Library, the Wash- ington Monument and the Lincoln Me- morial. For over a century, he said, engineers from the Military Academy have been in control of the rivers and harbors and have directed inland water portation. In these capacities, he | they have performed many great engineering feats, including the build- ing of the Panama Canal. Outlining the national defense act of 1920, he called the attention of the graduates of the increased opportunity for leadership offered in the training of citizen soldiers and the mabilizing of the industrial forces of the country. “The officer of the Uniied States Army.” he said, “is no longer isolated +and aloof from the people as a profes- sional soldier or a military leader. He no longer dirccts his mind solely to military training. He must also under- stand the social and economic problems involved in national defense.” RETIRING AGE LIMIT Theological Seminary Period for Professors Fixed at 67.

BY EDGAR ANSEL MOWRER. By Radio to The Star and the Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 1930, BERLIN, Germany, June 12.—A de-| cided jolt has been handed to the Na- | tional Soctalist German Labor party | German Fascists—by the Prussian go ernment, which has issued an order pro- from appearing in public in their “brown shirts,” wherein they imitate Mussolini’s black shirt fol- lowers. | This follows the prohibition by Bavaria of all uniformed political as- sociations and the Bavarian decision to forbid that party’s large scale political | meeting in Munich, planned for next Saturday. The leader of this party is Adolf Hit- ler, who was condemned for the beer insurrection in Munich at the end of 1923. The party’s tenets are hard to determine, but they seem to consist | chiefly in hatred of Jews, who are to be | excluded from citizenship, and the | promise of “free credit,” whatever that | means. The party attacks the Young repara- | tion plan and European reconciliation. Its members were the chief supporters of Alfred Hugenberg, ultranationalist newspaper magnate, in his recent un- successful anti-Young plan plebescite. ‘The extreme heterodox branch of the | movement, which is captained by the | fanatical Erich von Ludendorff, former | quartermaster general of the German | Army, demands the substitution of the | “masculine” cult of Wotan, Thor and other Nordic gods for the ‘“female” Christianity which, in his eyes, oc- casioned the ruin of the German peo- ple by weakening their moral fiber. Despite these almost absurd party tenets, Germany's economic distress is so great that the party continues to| grow_in strength and virtually controls | the Federal State of Thuringia. Three Earthquakes Recorded. ‘Three earthquakes were recorded | early today at Georgetown Seismologi- cal Observatory. The first was at 4:26 am. the.second at 4:57 am. with maximum intensity at about 5 a.m., and the third at 5:53 am. Director Fred- erick W. Sohon said the second was the most_severe of the three, but he was unable to determine its location. The other two were not extensive disturb- ances. For Sunday SUPPER ad bot toast with nderwood’s.

D, ‘0., THURSDAY, ALEXANDRIA TAXES UNDER DISCUSSION A JUNE °12, 1930. Property Owners Confer on Valuation Program With Assessment Group. Special Dispateh to The Star. ALEXANDRIA, Va. June 12.—Ap- proximately 200 persons gathered in Armory Hall here last night for the first | of 2 series of meetings of taxpayers with the board of assessors and the | Manufacturers' Appraisal Co. to discuss the various phases of the new assess- ment of the city which is now under way. A general spirit of co-operation with those in charge of the ascessment was | ressed by those gathered, after the | purpose and aims of the assessors were | @olained in detail. It was announced | t%at other similar mectings would be held as the work progresses and that the assessors would welcome the opin- fons of taxpayers where it was felt that | an error had been made. Explain Assessment Method. Among those who spoke for the sors and the appraisal company w C. 5. Taylor Burke, F. C. Goodnow and Walter W. Pollock.” The method of as- sessing was explained and the fact was emphasized that the assessors had no desire to raise taxes, but desired to equalize the valuation and make it a true one so that the tax rate might be lowered The whole-hearted co-opera- tion of the property owners in this work was asked, Pollock, representing the appraisal company, explained in detail how tax- payers might arrive at the valuation, and made the statement that when the work was over they expected to satisfy 95 per cent of the people as they had done in previous cities assesced. His firm is now also engaged in assessing Roanoke, Va,, he stated. Protests Received. Among (Lhose in the audience who spoke were Dr. M. D. Delaney, who asked why property on.the 100 block of North Washington street should be placed at $450 per foot while across the street on the 200 block it should drop more than one-half, to $200. Protest was also entered against the assessment of Maple and Myrtle streets in Mt. Another taxpayer asked why the 300 block of South Washington street should be at the rate of $175 and the same block of North Washington street, a more desirable location, should The assessors promised to look into each protest individually. Judge Louis C. Barley then expressed | his satisfaction that the men engaged in the work would see that justice was done and that he felt safe in relying on their judgment. This same attitude was expressed by several others, includ- ing Dr. .Delaney., .Vice Mayor E. F.
