CONDITION OF SON CALLS SENATOR HERE Complications Reported After Auto Accident of Thomas D, Schall, Jr. Senator Thomas D. Schall of Minne. sota was reported on his way to Wash- ington today because of the “unsatis- factory” condition of his son, who was injured last month in an automobile Hospital, where the young man is undergoing treatment, stated that he was “doing nicely.” The son, Thomas D. Schall, jr, a midshipman at the Naval Academy, was removed from Sibley Hospital to the naval institution Wednesday. An X- ray photograph revealed that the frac- tured bones in his upper right leg have overlapped and that there is some in- fection in his left arm, which also was fractured. Physicians at the hospital have set the leg in a traction machine, which they hope will draw the fractured bones together without it becoming necessary to operate. He will be confined to his bed for several months. The accident in which young Schall and a friend, Miss Alice Kreps of Balti- more, were injured occurred September 21, the machine which the Senator’s son was driving colliding with a gasoline truck near East Riverdale, Md.

DORAN LAUDS LAW INWETDRY DEBATE Lusk of Crusaders and Dun- ford of Anti-Saloon League Argue Liguor Issue. A TR A meeting of the Washington Chap- ter, Unitarian Laymen's League, last night became the forum for a brisk three-cornered debate on prohibition between Dr. James M. Doran, Federal commissioner of industrial alcohol and former commissioner of prohibition; Rufus Lusk, a member of the Executive Committee of the Washington branch of the Crusaders, and Edward B. Dun- ford, counsel for the Anti-Saloon of being s “nullificationist” were hurled from the floor at Mr. Lusk, when he frankly told the audi- ence, in answer to questions, that he expected to drink in spite of the eight- eenth amendment. Mr. Lusk with- stood rapid-fire questions regarding the stand of the Crusaders who are work- tion of the mohlhimm that prohibition is based on what he termed a fallacy. Doctor Quoted on Drink. Mr. Lusk quoted Dr. Raymond Pearl of Johns Hopkins University to the effect that “teetotalers” do not live as as the moderate drinkers, while admitting that the habitual drunkard does not live as long as either of the other class. Mr. Lusk declared “the eighteenth amendment must and will come out of the Constitution,” after asserting that it can never be enforced and that the tide xf sentiment has changed general subject of the debate, at All Souls’ Church Hall, was t Shall We Do About Prohibi- e iR 1’ymhmxu'§: “a great reform” in can be effected and said: “It may be that Congress will change part, but in any event, Congress must enact proper enforce- to be mentally honest.” Dr. Doran said “there is noth- ing sacrosant about always holding that more than one-half of 1 per cent ot alcohol content is illegal.” Dr. Doran declared, in his opinion the eighteenth amendment will con- tinue, and developed the thought that there are bound to be certain evils in an%rmm no matter how the latter Increase of Evils. “I care not whether you have liquor “mdgl?w‘mn:en under a government or under a nsary, .e; lylmn-‘ 1t's e volume of consumpt increases the evils flowing from that system will in- crease.

Mr. Dunford also said, in effect, that all kinds of regulation of the liquor traf- fic has failed, and predicted “the Amer- ican people will never take a backward step to make alcohol easler to get.” errA dDortn. ft:luawlx}g'}lhe ‘?'!!baw. ad- essed a meeting of e Washington Chemical Soclety in the Cosmos Club, in which he asserted the modern meth- ods of distributing aleohol “is a prob- lem of economics and not of morals.” —_— Alleged Gangster Given Ten Years in Baltimore Robbery.

The relative, who preferred to remain unnamed because “of family complica- tions,” said Perry’s apparent affair with Mrs. Hackett was but one of a series of “want-ad loves.” Easy to Win Women. “Four years 2go,” the relative said, “Perry asked me to go with him on what he called'a ‘love racket raid.” for you and then take their money.” As police reconstructed the Hackett affair, Perry met her in Chicago after advert| for & “woman companion to drive to ifornia.” They were mar- ried and came to Wisconsin on a h:z— moon financed partly by the 4 ‘Then Mrs. Hackett disappeared.

It was held too early also to say whether the final report of the grcup will be in the form of majority and minority statements. Some members have contended the commission should thresh out the en- tire prohibition question and assume a definite stand. Included in this num- ber are Federal Judge Willilam Kenyon of Iowa and Kenneth MacIntosh, gton jurist. Judge Kenyon was called back to Towa last night to act upon cases in his court. Word was received today that he will not return before November. Newton D. Baker also left Washing- ton last night for Cleveland, but plans to return next Wednesday.

The gir) cried herself to Alaer that night and awoke to look out of dirty windows at tree tops of a dense grove. The strange woman® came in from time to time through a locked door with food and water as Wednesday and an- other night wore away. About 10 o'clock yesterday morning the woman came' in with a heavy-set man, who seemed to be in authority. The newcomer looked at Katherine and shook his head, saying, “This is not the right girl” Katherine heard him add that “she may get us into trouble,” and before the man left he issued orders that Katherine be taken home. Same Men Return Girl. Katherine was told she would be re- turned to Washington as soon as it got dark and about dusk last night the two men who brought her there returned and blindfolded her. They left the blindfold in place while they drove several hours and when it was removed Katherine said she was accompanied by the same men in the same auto- mobile. Arriving near Silver Spring the men stopped the car and told Katherine to get out and go on home. - They ad- monished her not to look back, not to “talk too much” to the police and keep moving. Katherine described the car as a dark green or black Cadillac touring of an old model, with the curtains up in back. She said it bore a Maryland tag and as best she could tell, the first three numbers were “116.” 1 said one of the men was about 40 years old, of a slender build and medium height.
