Efforts of Bainbridge Colby, former Secretary of State, to collect a fee of $333,333 In a war claims casc have been met by a charge that he misrepresented facts in the suit to his client, the Inter- ocean Oil Co,, Inc., of New York. The sult is pending in the District of Columbia Supreme Court. The company and its subsidiary, the United States Asphalt Refining Co., re- covered approximately $1,000,000 in 1926 from Germany as damages for four ships sunk by submarines during the World War. Agreed on Third. Colby and his law partner, Edward D. Brown of New York, represented the concern under an agreement that they | would receive & third of the amount recovered. Through its attorneys, Harvey D. Ja- cobs and Walter M. Bastian, the Inter- ocean Ofl Co. contends the $333,333 is excessive in view of the work that Colby and his partner did, and that the for- mer induced the company to sign & written fee agreement by misrepresent- ing and concealing facts. Colby Denies Charge. Colby denies the charges. The fee was upheld by Chandler Anderson, the American commissioner on the Mixed Claims Commission. The company also contends that Colby knew, but failed to inform it, that the Mixed Claims Com- mission would do practically all the work in connection with ~American | claims, not even allowing a private at- | torney to appear before it. | The case 5% be heard on its merits, Interocean is now in the process of liquidation. | FOUR CITIZEN GROUPS ASK CENTER PROJECT Joint Community Play Area Near Proposed Taft Junior High Proposed at Session.

AUTOGIRO IN WAR SEEN BY INGALLS Capable of Speed in Future Nearly Equal to Present Craft, He Thinks. By the Associated Press. After several flights in the Navy's new autogiro, David S. Ingalls, Assistant Secretary for Aeronautics, is convinced the windmill plane ultimately will be endowed with double its present speed and take its place as a formidable fight- ing craft. By comparison with his Curtiss plane, with its cruising speed of 150 to 160 miles per hour, the 75 to 85 mile gait of the autogiro in which he piloted Secretary Adams to President Hcover's Virginia camp over the week end pretty slow,” Ingalls said. “But e added, here are a dozen en your ”/mft ' WASHINGTON, D. C.,, TUESDAY, ways in which the speed of the autogiro can be increased by application of stream lining and other well known principles of aircraft construction.” Ingalls predicted that eventual im- provements in design would give -the autogiro a speed almost equal to that of a Navy plane of similar size and power. Even if some slight discrepancy in speed might remain, he said this would be outweighed by the advantages of being able to take off and land in a small space and to descend vertically at | less than the speed of a parachute if disabled, = Three Attend Medic Meet.

Here are the exact words of a noted authority retained by us to study this question. He writes: “First, the vocal chords, on account of their delicacy of structure, would be the first tissues to give indication of irritation, evidenced by the huskiness of the smoker’s voice, the result of re- laxed tension and slower vibration of the vocal chords. The next site of irritation would be the tissues adjacent to the wvocal chords comprising the larynx, therefore the general focal point of the irritation would be in the voice box represented externally by the Adam’s Apple.” So—Consider your Adam’s Apple. Be careful in your choice of cigarettes. Don’t rasp your throat with harsh irritants. Reach for a LUCKY instead. 1st Air Div AT THE LOWEST PRICES WE’VE EVER HAD Think of this low price for a modern hot-water system!
