HOOVERS ATTEND YULETIDE SERVICE Bishop Freeman Preaches Christmas Sermon at Washington Cathedral. President and Mrs. Hoover, accom- panied by their son, Allan, who is home from Harvard for the holidays, attended special Christmas services yesterday at Bethlehem Chapel of the Washington Oathedral. ‘This was the first time since they have been in the White House that Mr. and Mrs. Hoover have attended a Sabbath service in this church. They occupled a pew near the front of the little chapel not far from the tomb of ‘Woodrow Wilson, the wartime President, who brought Mr. Hoover into public life by appointing him food ad- ministrator. Rev. James E. Freeman, Bishop of ‘Washington, at whose invitation the President and Mrs. Hoover attended yesterday's service, preached a sermon entirely spiritual in nature and void of any subject relating to world affairs or national or political problems. Both Mr. and Mrs. Hoover have expressed interest in the progress of the cathedral struc- ture, which is steadily rising on the most commanding elevation in the Capital City. Bishop Freeman took as his text the words: “For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.” Preaches Christmas Sermon. ‘The birth of Jesus at Bethlehem, Bishop Freeman said, is the satisfying answer to the yearning as expressed in Browning's “Saul”: “It is the weakness in strength I cry for; my flesh that I seek in the Godhead.” Upon their arrival at the chapel the presidential party were received by Rev. Anson Phelps Stokes, canon of the cathedral. The Epistle service was read by Rev. G. Freeland Peter, canon and chancellor of the cathedral. The gospel was read by Rev. G. C. F. Bratenahl, dean of Washington. P Prehistoric Mexican miners, for thou- sands of years before Columbus, built enormous fires against the mountainous rocks in which veins of turquoise were known to exist, to disintegrate the rock and yield the precious stuff. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., MONDAY, DEC IMBER 22, 1930. .. ANDEAGLAND ATTURNIG PONTS British Foreign Se.cretary Stresses Need for Strong Peace Measures. By the Associated Press. BRIGHTON, England, December 22— A statement that the United States and Great Britain are at one of the turning points in their histories formsd the key- note of a message broadcast to America last night by Arthur Henderson, British foreizn secretary. “We have to choose now between peace and war, bctween co-operation and conflict, between a developing and ennobling civilization and collapse into the barbarism of the past,” he said. Says None Desire War. “For unless w= can build this struc- ture of world peace upon a firm founda- tion, we may depend upon it that sooner or later a cataclysm will come upon the DISTRICT G FRUITS AND VEGETABLES FOR YOUR XMAS SHOPPING Our stores will have a fine supply of the fanciest fruits and vegetables at special prices.

I am absolutely convinced there is no one who wants war, no one who is plotting war, no one who does not realize that war would be an unmiti- gated disaster to all concerned.” Naval Conference Praised. In reveiwing steps made toward peace during the past year the foreign secre- tary referred specifically to the London Naval Conference. “By the treaty we settled two of the most_urgent political questions in the world—the so-called question of parity between England and America and a similar question between America and Japan. Thus we got rid—we hope for- ever—of the risks of armament compe- tition between Europe and America on one hand and between America -and Asia on the other.” Efforts for Peace Reviewed. After touching briefly on the Hague conference, which ended in the evacua- tion of the Rhineland, on the accept- ance by many nations of the optional clause regarding the Permanent Court of Internatiomal Justice, and on the Indian round table conference, Mr. Henderson said that as a result of re- recent labors in Geneva, the way now _STORES Inc was open for & world disarmament con- ference. “I hope,” he said, “that within a year or so from now I may have agreed upon the first treaty whereby all the armies, navies and air forces in the world shall be limited and reduced.” GERMAN ON WORLD FLIGHT Flying & small German low-wing monoplane, in which he hopes to circle the globe, crossing the oceans by steam- ship, Wolf Hurth, German glider pilot, who participated in a recent glider meet in New York, took off today from ‘Washington-Hoover Airport en route to New Orleans. He came in late yester- day from New York. Hurth expected to fly south along the route of the New York-Atlanta air- way and probably will spend tonight in Atlanta. His was the fourth “round- the-world” plane to pass through the Capital during the past two months. . e Monogenarian Dead. LYNCHBURG, Va, December 22 (Special) . —Alexander Campbell Wright, 90 years of age, a Confederate veteran, died Friday night at 9:45 o'clock at his home at Shipman, Nelson County.

OYSTER DEALERS FINED | FOR EXCESS OF LlQuID Five Penalties Are Imposed When Shucked Product Is Found Con- taining Over 10 Per Cent Fluid. As a further result of the recent sur- vey of oyster dealers made jointly by the District Department of Weights and Measures and the Food and Drug Administration of the Department of Agriculture, five dealers today forfeited $10 collateral each in Police Court on charges of selling shucked oysters con- taining more than 10 per cent of liquid, which is the maximum allowed w7 the District weights and measures law. According to the District weights and measures law, shucked oysters contain- ing more than 10 per cent of liquid may not be sold, regardless of whether the liquid is water or oyster liquid. The purpose of the law, according to George N. Roberts, superintendent of weights, measures and markets, is to see that consumers pay for oysters and not for oyster liquid or water.
