»iFE EVENING STAR ‘“'AQHING'[‘ON. D. C, SATURDAY, AUGUST 16, 1930. * NEWSREEL SHOWS HAWKS, LANDING Oddities and Thrills Are Fea- tures of Current Issue at Theaters. ‘The Evening Star Universal Newsreel, which is shown at the Warner Theaters and nearby houses in Maryland and Virginia, presents in its current issue thrills and oddities from all the world. From far-off Japan the cameraman sends pictures of devotees in solemn Pprocession to celebrate the 2,497th an- niversary of the birth of Buddha. From our own United States, the land of competition, come stirring scenes of two new airplane records. Admiring crowds at Valley Stream, N. Y., rush the plane as Fred Hawks completes the con- tiental flight which beat Lindy’s tife by 2!, hours. In St. Louls, a rain- drenched throng sends up an ovation to O'Brine and Jackson as they break the Hunter brothers’ endurance flight record. At New London. Conn. a cheering mob greets the fifth Shamrock as she #kims the marbor waters after her long sea voyage, intent upon lifting the cup. In Brussels, too, the camera’s eye caught scenes of rampant glory when the Belgians celebrated, with a’ parade that recalls the middle ages, their cen- tury of freedom from Dutch rule. Rome sends picturesque and stirring views of Mussolini and_high ranking statesmen reviewing the Royal Carbineers, a corps of plumed soldiery considered among the best in the Italian Army, celebrating the hundredth year of their organiza- tion. In Brooklyn, N. Y., a fleet of fireboats cames to the assistance of firemen as the “smoke eaters” work in a deadly haze of sulphur gas, saving the lives of 17 workers in a burning factory. ‘The newsreel men caught a canoe looping the loop at a water fete in Frankfort, Germany. They found a co- ed college on wheels near Boston, the student body traveling in busses and liv- ing in tents. They discovered “whoopee ‘wheels” in Fitchburg, Mass., homemade ferris wheels more popular in their town than midget golf; in Brooklands, England, they photographed exciting scenes on the track when a lot of ancient autos, not one of them under 25 years old, chugged for speed prizes in & canny race, and at Bad-Kissingen, Germany, they covered a meet in which hundreds of gymnasts performed on aero wheels. The Talking Reporter, aided by the Victor Concert Orchestra, adds spice to all of these events. {GOOD CHANCE FOR COMEBACK Political Acumen Favor Gore. cates Popularity of Re- publican Foe. Special Dispatch to The Star. OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla., August 16 (N.A.N.A.).—"“Less taxes, more trade and | no_trusts.” Upon that platform, Thomas Pryor Gore, former Senator, has staged a political comeback, gaining the Demo- cratic nomination for United States Senator when so many ex-Governors and other “exes” went down to hopeless defeat, His victory over C. J. Wrightsman, ‘Tulsa oil millionaire, in this week's primaries, and over the field in the first primary, was so surprising that many observers think he has a good chance to win the Senate seat from Senator W. B. Pine, Republican, in the general election. Gore, the blind master of the stump. with his cleverness, wit and sarcasm and his observations on “Hoover pros- perity” won votes by the thousands. Now at 59 years—he calls his age “still in the fighting 50s”—he has set out on an attempt to regain the seat in the Senate from which he has been absent since 1921, Gore's hair is white and he always Reaction of People. Gore attributes his victory, in a large measure, to the reaction of the people | to tremendous expenditures in senatorial campaigns. His primary campaign cost | $1,000, and he was without headquar- ters or organization. | Gore knows the politics of Oklahoma far better than any of his opponents He served 14 years in the United States Senate from the Statehood in 1907 until 1920, when he was defeated for the Democratic nomination to succeed him- self by Scott Ferris, now national com- mitteeman. His plan in his recent | campaign was to explain his platform and denounce the Republicans in gen- eral and the Hoover administration in particular. He chastized the Hoover- Democrats gently for leaving the party in 1923, but not in & manner to make them hostile. The drop in farm prices was an- | other of his favorite topics. He had a way of driving it home. One ex- | pression was “that as hogs go down | they pass hams coming up.” Blinded as a Boy. CAPITAL WOMAN FINED IN ALLEGED RAMPAGE ‘Windows -in Baltimore Cell Room Smashed After Mrs. McDaniels’ Arrest in Traffic Case. Mrs. Evangeline McDaniels, 28 years | old, of 323 Eleventh street northeast, was fined $5 in Baltimore Central Police Court today on a charge of malicious destruction of property after police said she smashed several windows and tore down curtains in the women's cell room at_Baltimere police headquarters. Mrs. McDaniels was taken into custody last night on a charge of reck- less driving after jher automobile col- lided with another car at Sixteenth and Riggs road, Baltimore. The reckless driving charge against Mrs. McDaniels was dismissed following her arraignment in Traffic Court. Mrs. McDaniels told police she had been in New York on business and was returning to Washington when the acci- dent occurred. ‘The small fine given Mrs. McDaniels on the ‘destruction of property charge ‘was assessed after she is said to have promised to make good the damage done to the cell room. She is employed by the American Institute of Carpet Manufacturers. CLOSER CHECK ORDERED ON BUSINESS LICENSES Commissioners Require Exchange of Lists Monthly Between Police and Issuance Office” As a closer check on the issuance of licenses for various business establish- ments, the police of the various precincts and e Superintendent of Licenses’ Office will ve required to ex- change lists of licenses every month henceforth, by an order issued today by the Board of Commissioners. The superintendent of licenses will send to each }:ecinct a list of the licenses . issued for business establish- ments in that precinct. The captain of the precinct will compile his own list of all the licensed business places in the precinct, and the two will be com- pared to see if there are any omissions, This will be done between the 1st and 5th of each month, beginning next month.

In 1901 he was elected to the Territorial Senate. | In 1907 he won the seat in the Sen- |ate as a west side candidate. In the campaign he promised to change his | residence from Lawton to some city | on the east side of the State if nom- inated, as the home of Elmer Thomas, the Democratic United States Senator, was at Lawton, too. Gore received credit for having much to do with carrying California for Pres- ident Wilson in 1916.

Gore has a secretary to read to him and his friends also spend hours reading to him. In this way he keeps in touch with current events. (Copyright, 1930. by North American News- paper Alliance.)

Pearce Green, 13 years old, of 1622 Twenty-second _street southeast. and Thomas Herbert, 14 years old, of 2211 Naylor road southeast, discovered the jewelry in_the river a short distance from the Pennsylvania Avenue Bridge and turned it over to Policeman C. R. Sydnour of the eleventh precinct. A string of beads lying on the river bed about three feet from the.shore caught between the toes of Green's foot while he and Herbert were playing in the water, and subsequent searching resulted in the finding of the kettle and its contents only a short distance away. Bracelets and stone beads comprised the greater part of the articles, while an identification tag bearing the name of “Second Lieut. Westel Willoughby, United States Air Service, A. E.
