• TRUSTY” JIT JAIL I
MIES HIS ESCAPE
-
Alfred Cole, Given Letters To
Mail, It Is Said—Never
Returned
For officials of a jail or other penal
institution, to regard one or more
prisoners as “trusties” is a lad prac
tice nowadays.
A most flagrant and careless slip
of this sort occurred a few days ago
at the Anne Arundel county jail here,
as a result cf which Alfred Cole, a,
young white man, convicted before the
Circuit Court of burglary, and await
ing final disposition of his case, after
having 1 een sentenced to 2Vi years
in the Maryland penitentiary, is now
at large.
Cole was convicted more than a
month ago, but it is understood that
he had 1 een retained in the local jail
pending proceedings by which he
might escape the stigma of a term in
the penitentiary by being transferred
to semo reformatory institution.
Since his confinement in jail, it is
said he had been given the lilertics
of a “trusty” 1 ecause of his general
good behavior and the fact that ho
helped about the institution in var
ious ways. On Sunday, it is said.
Warden Edward Anderson went so far
as to send him on an errand. His
mission was to mail some letters at
the poatoffice. Cole now is among the
missing, and the mail matter is said
not to have reached its destination.
Cole, with another young man who
was never apprehended, was convict
ed of entering the house of Thomas
Housley of near Camp Parole, kite
last summer.

SEVERN RIVER BOOMERS
The twelfth annual meeting and
dinner of the Severn River Associa
tion will he held at the Sherwood
Forest Clubhouse at 6:30 o’clock this
afternoon. In years gone by it has
been the custom of the Association
to hold their annual gatherings at
Carvel Hall, but this year the direc
tors accepted the invitation of the
Sherwood Forest officials to assemble
at their clubhouse.
The Association is composed of resi
dents living on, or near Severn river,
and the majority are business or pro
fessional men of Baltimore, and much
of the progress made in recent years
in developing the river section has
been due largely to the influence and
activities of members of the associa
tion. A business meeting will he held
in connection with the dinner, and of
ficers for the year will be elected.

ALLIED DEBT

Chicago Financier, Tells Illinois
Bankers’ Association It Is
Fundamental Question Per
taining To Future Of Commer
cial And Industrial Welfare
WORLD NOW MORE AND
MORE INTERDEPENDENT
(Ry The AnHoriiited I’resii.)
ST. LOUIS, MO., June 22.—The
problem of requiring payment of the
allied debt, or cancelling it, is “the
fundamental question, upon the ans
wer to which will depend the future
of our own commercial and industrial
welfare, and that of the rest of the
world,” Walter Lichtenstein, Pli. D„
the Chicago banker, said at the con
vention of the Illinois Bankers' Asso
ciation here today. Dr. Lichcnslcin
then presented a summary of both
sides of the controversy as voiced in
a recent statement from the Chicago
Association of Commerce.
“Most of my time during the last
months has been spent in making an
economic survey of this country on
behalf of the American Bankers As
sociation,” said Dr. Lichensteiu. “It
is evident that there is a much great
er feeling of hopefulness in the coun
try. The most thoughtful observers
feel that we have probably gene as
far as we can x in a rehabilitation of
our conditions unless we can- bring
some influence to bear upon Europe—
as it is Europe which is the sore spot
—and I believe that in the present
juncture of affairs this fact cannot
be overemphasized.
European Countries Bound
“With the exception of Great Brit
ain none of the European countries
arc really in a position to bring about
a net reduction of their governmental
indebtedness to us in the near fu
ture.
“The world has become more and
more interdependent, even though it
is indisputable that this general truth
is less applicable to this country than

Whether or not the Maryland Sol- ,
diers’ Bonus Act (Chapter 448 of the j
Acts of the late General Assembly! ,
is constitutional is being presented j
to the Maryland Court of Appeals to- ,
day for final decision. Arguments j
before the Appellate Court were com

necn appearing in behalf of the pe
titioner, Harry O. Brawner, and At
torney-General Alexander Armstrong '
and Amos W. Woodcock, for the ,
Board of Election Supervisors of Ital- J
timore city. The case was advanced *
for a special hearing today so that '
a decision might be given at the reg
ular Court term early in October
which will he ample time to place *
the act to a referendum as provided.
The action is a mandamus proceed- '

ton, of the law which provides a '
State bond issue of nine million dol-j'

during the world war. The petition
was filed in the Baltimore City Court,
and a few days ago, Judge Stein
rendered an opinion holding that the '
act was not open to constitutional 1
objection, and the mandamus was re
fused.
In the arguments here today) it
was contended that the act is not

PARR MAY GET AWARD
OF ATHLETIC SWORD
Midshipman Warren S. Parr looms
up as probable winner of the navy
athletic sword for excellence in ath
letics next year. He appears by far
the most distinguished and versatile
athlete in the new first class. He has
been end on the football team for
two seasons, and guard of the basket
ball five for three. He has also been
a regular on the lacrosse team for
two years.
The only member of the class who
approaches Parr in versatility is
cent J. O’Regan, captain of the box !
ing team. O’Regan also plays foot-j
hall and lacrosse, but lias not estab-l
lished himself as a regular in either j
.sport. Another fine athlete in the
class is Vincent P. Conroy, captain
and back of the football team and a
lacrosse player.
GOVERNOR PROCLAIMS
JULY 3 LEGAL HOLIDAY
Deferring to the wishes of many -
citizens, financial institutions and
. other organizations, Governor Albert
I C. Ritchie has issued his proclama
tion declaring Monday, July 3, as a
legal holiday throughout Maryland.
. The proclamation recites the fact that
as Independence Day this year falls
[ on Tuesday, and there being but one
. business day between it and the pre
( ceding Sabbath that such- circum
r stance moved the Executive to exer
cise the authority vested in him and
declare that intervening day a holi
. day. Thus there will be three succes
. sive holidays.
UPPER COUNTY FOLKS
1 WANT IMPROVED ROAD
s
Residents of Anne Arundel and
Howard counties and members of the

x indignation meeting Tuesday night in
the town hall at Glen Burnie. They
[. gathered to request the State Roads
Commission to make a State road of
the old county “cut off” road, which
connects the above towns with the
j Washington boulevard.
The townsmen, numbering 100,
claimed the present condition of thej
l , road makes vehicular traffic impos
v sible. J. M. Powell, of Dorsey, was

FIREMEN'S CARNIVAL
WELL DESERVING OF
GREATER PATRONAGE
' •
Although the attendance has been
satisfactory and weather conditions
have been all that could be desired,
the annual carnival under the aus
pices of the Rescue Hose Company of
volunteer firemen, now in progress oil
the West street lot, will not meet with
the success as like fetes of former
years, according to the promoters.
“Money seems tight,” say the fire
laddies, and thereby lies the reason.
And it is a logical one. for the aver
age person does not seeni to have the
money to spend now as compared to
year or two ago, or if they are just
as well off in the world’s goods, they
are not loosening the purse strings to
a liberal extent.
In spite of all. however, the several
attractions at the carnival seemed to
be pretty well patronized last night,
and indications are that the fete will
meet with even greater success dur
ing the rest of the week. The flying
ihorses, or merry-go-round, as usual,
has the favor of the kiddies, and Is
kept constantly on the go throughout
the evenings. At the several stands,
one is bound to get something for the
coin they spend, whether of trivial or
more value, as the turn of fate might
run. The big prizes that are to be
drawn for are a “Cleveland Six”
automobile, a canoe, and a Shetland
pony, And a multitude of tickets have
been sold on all three. The open-air
dancing pavilion, as usual, is a popu
lar attraction for the younger ones
Altogether the firemen’s efforts are
deserving of greater patronage.
