By the Associated Press. LAKEHURST, N. J, June 28.—An official statement from Lieut. Comdr. Charles E. Rosendahl . tonight cleared up the question as to just what hap- pened when the Navy dirigible Los Angeles landed at the field yesterday after a practice flight. First reports, which were denied, said that the dirigible had broken loose from her mooring mast, that a hole had been punched in her side and that several of the ground crew were injured in a five-hour battle to land the big air cruiser. The statement said the main mooring cable snapped as the ship was being pulled down to the mobile mast and several “thrilling moments” followed, but the dirigible was not damaged and the ground crew never lost control of it. A sudden and unexpected gust of wind against the ship caused the cable to snap, the report sal 'GIVEN 30-DAY TERM FOR STRIKING WIFE Herbert Brown Sentenced by Judge McMahon on Testimony He Wielded Ash Tray. Accused of hitting his wife in the nose with an ash tray, Herbert Brown, 1400 block of F street, drew a 30-day sen- tence from Judge John P, McMahon in Police Court yesterday.

After they had gone to bed that night she sald her husband srose, turned on the light and struck her in the nose with an ash container. | the Preside rvurdsmches were taken to close the ‘wound. .o Brown said his wife had accused him of philandering and declared he was the one who was hit with the tray. ‘When he tried to prevent the wife from taking g-* L. tried to choke him and he pulled away and “accidentally hit her on the nose,” he explained. 5,000 TO GO TO MEXICO Natives in U. 8.

COSHOS CLUB WS RETURNOF TNES Court Rules Purposes Are Educational, Literary and Scientific. ‘The Cosmos Club of Washington, whose roll of members comprises a small edition of “Who's Who in Amer- ica,” is not a social club within the meaning of the Federal statute im- posing & tax on club dues, the United States Court of Claims has held. Under such a ruling by Judge Little- ton, in which the court concurred, the Cosmos Club has won a long fight to collect $26,532.05, representing taxes assessed and collected on dues for the period from February 6, 1923, to De- cember 15, 1926, inciusive. Overruling an opinion by the Commissioner of In- ternal Revenue on October 30, 1923, that the famous club is a social club within the meaning of the revenue acts of 1921, 1924 and 1926, the Court of Claims entered judgment in favor of the plaintiff club for the full amount of taxes collected from it with interest. Club Purposes Not Social. Whether the dues or membership of an organization are subject to tax as those of a social club is a question of fact, Judge Littleton held. The facts in this case, the court pointed out, show that the predominant purposes of the club were educational, literary and artistic, and that its few social features did not bring the club within the wx- ing statute. Attorneys George E. Hamilton and John F. McCarren appeared for the club and Assistant Attorneys General Fred K. Dyar and Herman J. Gal- loway represented the Government. The few social activities of the Cos- || mos Club, as set forth by the court, in- |/ clude & card room and pool and billiard table. Regular Lectures Held. Referring to the serious purpose of the club, the court says that it fosters ||}l| science, literature and art and enter- tains men distinguished in these fields || of endeavor. “Many distinguished scientific and |/ literary men are members of the club,” the court added. ‘“Lectures on science, art, literature and education are pro- vided by the club on Mondays for its || members. Such lectures are by mcn || distinguished in the arts, science, liter- ature and education. “The club is & meeting place in Wash- || ington for men engaged in scientific ac- tivities in Washington and_ elsewhere. During the World War the plaintiff was the center of all ‘the ‘specialis were invited from all the laboratories and universities of the country to come to Washington to help the Government. The club is known &) & center for sejence, especially, and literature and art to a lesser degree.” DR. ALFRED R. SHANDS, JR. HONORED WITH DINNER Orthopedic Surgeon and George ‘Washington U.
