THOMPSON MEAD 0F BAR ASS0C1ATI0N

CORTLAND. March 9.—Attorney Xłmer Thompson. former city judge, has been elected president of the Cortland County Bar Associa-tlon. The meetinsr waa held in the Office of Judge George M. Champ-lln. He succeeds Attorney A. J. Buck, city counsel. City Judge Harry Kesler was elected vice pres­ident, L. R Dowd, secretary, and H. D. Lucy of Homer, treasurer. At­torney William Maher and the firm of Haskell & Maher was elected a director for five years. Thompson. Dowd and Kesler have all held the post of city iudge.

tłons and others have worked in great style to bring about this tre-mendoua result, and, when the cios-Ing datę—March 15—arrives, there łs certaln to be morę particlpants in the Flag Contest than any other such undertaklng has ever enjoyed.

Syracuse regłon's proportion of the f igwes above runs about 150 units. with about 10,000 boys and girla

And, with another week to go, the chances are that there will be few high achools and boy and girl organisatlons in the 18 counties a s -slgned to The Journal and Ameri­can whlch will not be In the con­test.

If there are any such organisa­tlons not conducting unlts, it Is due to the fact that they are at the ttme overwhelmed with other duties, but thla is also true of many who are now worklng on the Flag* Con­test. The leaders of the latter units recognized such value In the plan that they were willlng to take on the extra study for the beneflt to be derived by the boys and girls taklng part.

Aside from the educational and patriotic angle, the, Flag Contest will also reward the particlpants richly. In every unit, whether boys, girls or both, there will be medal awards for the best boy and the best girl. Thelr only task Is the finding of the answers to the 75 ąuestions asked and writlng an es-say on "Old Glory's Greateat Glory". J U R Y O F A W A R D .

Papers of the unit leaders will be examlned and passed on by a reglonal Jury of Award to be ap-polnted by The Journal and Ameri­can, and from them will be picked the best boy and the beat girl, who will be taken on a two weeks* trip so well termed "the greatest patri­otic pilgrlmage of all time".

other pointa in the Albany district are to be dropped from the service.

This was announced today by Administrator Palmer C a n f i e l d after he had scanned the Civll Service Commission eligible lists and found they do not con*ain the names of many of the veteran en-forcement offlcials.

The examlnation on which this ellgłble list was based was held about a year and a half ago. Of the 17 agents in the Syracuae Of­fice at that time, 14 falled in the test. The results throughout the country were generally about the

• J J * 1 same, morę than SO per cent. of the <[§i fffFfJi agents falllng. Amon? tho?e who M. l^J^#sy« / ty flunked were many of the "star"

ralders. The protest agałnst the exam was

so loud and so insłstent that a sec­ond or "make up" examlnatlon was held.

The men who falled were glven temporary appolntments and have been worklng these appolntments sińce. Now they are scheduled to walk the plank.

Most of the men who were łn Syracuse at the time of the examl-natlon have slnce been transferred. Many of them are in Albany and others scattered all over the dis­tr ict

The men to be dropped will be replaced by new men within the next 60 days, Mr. Canneld declared, and at the same time a number of new investigators and inspectors are to be named.

A speclal sąuad Is to be employed this summer for duty along the

Certainly there will be plenty ot honor for those who take part and dlstinctlons they will proudly carry all through life. C O N T E S T 8 T I L L O P E N . •

The opportunity is stlll open to every boy and girl between the ages of 14 and 18, and it is just a ąuestion of the formation of unlts of 25 or morę. This is within the province of any school prłnclpal or leader of any other group or or-ganlzatlon. It is also the prłvilege of responsible indlviduals who wtsh to form Flag Boards in places and sectiona where no units have been formed.

A letter to the Flagr Contest Edi­tor of this newspaper stating the name of its unit leader and the number of boya girls or both who will take part will bring to any the complete plan. It will include not only the outllne of the condu<:t of the .contest, but also the- 75 ąues­tions in ąuantlty, as well a s In-structlons for the łndtvlduals par-ticipatlng. The plan łs so thorough that execution of a unit becomes a pleasure with little labor.

Remember the appllcation must be łn by Friday of next week.

By Staff Correspondent ALBANY. March 9.—Sharp de-

I liate on the floor of the Assembly is expected to result next week from n statement issued today by (iovernor Roosevelt, demanding that the Legislature act immediately to provide leglslation in place of the hills almed at amhulance-chasing, which were killed in assembly ju-diciary committee.

Assemblyman Edward Moran of New York City, sponsor of the bills, has announced he will move for their discharge from committee. When he does so, it is believed t; er will be reference bv New York City assemblymen to the remark during the hearing of Assembly­man Horace Stone, Syracuse Re-publican, who, speaking of New Yrork City taxpayers, said "the heli with them."

This remai-k has aroused a storm of Indlgnatlon and is believed to have been responsible, at least łn part, for the Governor's statement today. Stone was the leader in heckllng attorneys who appeared in favor of the bllls at a public hear­ing last week. RepresentatWes of nearly all the bar associations up-state oposed them, Assemblyman Edmund B. Jenks of Broome County, chairman of the judiciary committee, puttlng the Broome County Bar Assocłation on record to that effect.

"Whlle łt is not within the prov-ince of the Governor to Interfere in any way with legislatłve proced­urę," Governor Roosevelt sald, "It is his duty to keep In touch- with the' Progress of and discussion on pro-posed public measures of vital in ­terest to the people of the state."

The Governor's statement is re-garded as especlally significant be-cause it hlts at Democratlc as well as Republican members of the judi-cłary committee whłch killed the bills. Nonę of the former voted to report the measures and nonę of them took łssue with Assemblyman Stone when he madę his remarit about New York City taxpayers.

Ranks of Business Girls May Produce

Typical American

Saturday, Marcli 9, 1929 ,

GIRL TELLS OF" M i BEFORE

This Type of Physical and Mental Strength May Claim

Honors.

The Business Girl. Is the Typical American Girl

one of these? Is the young woman ma king

her own way in the world golng to be the one chosen for the $5,000 prize offered by the Hearst papers and Smart Set magazine? One thing is certaln. Whether or not she is the typical American, the business girl is the wholly American girl.

No other nation has produced her counterpart, no other coun­try has given her tho opportunity to develop that has been accorded her ln the United States. The war removed the last barrler agalnst women in lndustry and those days of great emergency with the man power of the coun­try reduced to ' the minimum proved that women could and would do almost any kind of what had always been considered "man's work." The tlmtd, nerv-ous female, prone to faint 4n moments of crisis hą^disappeared and in her stead Is tne calm, self-reliant, efflclent woman, who men -tally and physlcally takes her place beslde her brother.

Places of Trust The business girl ls found in

posltlons of trust and responsl-bility everywhere, posltlons where important decislons must be madę where the success or fallure of some large enterprise depends upon her sagaclty.

In hospitals. łn manufacturlng business, in large retail concerns, ln public utłlitles, ln politlcal po­sltlons, in fact, in every sphere where there is important work today women are found doing lt.

As the student is no longer necessarłly the highbrow or blue-stocking, the business girl is no longer the drab person that she used to be plctured.

She is smart ln appearance, in fact, : her simple and practical clothes have influenced the entire feminlne modę. She may also be, outside of working hours, the home girl, for a large proportion of women employed in the busi­ness world matntain their own homes, and remarkably ąttractive ones, too.

She may also be a stfdent, for lt is safe to say that a large num­ber of women who are working during the 'day • are taklng special courses at night to lmproye thelr chances of advancement. And her social contaots are many. She belongs to clubs and other or-ganizations. An ill\istration of this is the growth of luncheon clubs for business women, follow­ing the lines of Rotary, Kiwanis and othera .

Whereas the business girl does not have much time for athletics, when she does have the oppor­tunity she can swing a golf club or a tennis racket, swim, skate or ride horseback in no mean man-ner. Florence S. Roblnett, dean of Women at Northwestern Uni- j versity, was asked her opinion of the Typical American Girl who is being sought by the Hearst pa­pers and Smart Set magasine.

]

Smartly clad, poised and alert, the business girl includes the ąualitics of other types.

The answer is, they are. The young women who combined all the <tualifications for the perfect type does not possess them any the less because she happens to be married and for that reason it has been declded that there ls no reason why she should not be allowed t o compete with her un-marrled sisters.

CORTLAND. March 9 . -Pic tured as bestial and drunk-crazed with iutent to altack her and her sister formed part of the testimony glven yesterday by Miss Charlotte Gay-lord, 19-year-old daughter of Char'es Gaylord, who, with Clar-ence Cornellus, are being tried for second degree murder in conjjec-tion with the death of Jasper Dil-wurth, a negro, ln Broome County •> Court.

The crlme took place over the Cortland County linę in a remote farm In the town of Barker on Jan. 2. The girl told of Dllwurth being ln an tntozicated condltion and demanding extrance to her room in the wee hours of the nora, and that her father and Cor-ellus rushed from their room to ssist her and the other, daughter.

She sald that a fight took place but as to Just what nappened her memory was hazy.

There appears a marked differ-ence as to the events leading up to the commission of the crime and who madę the first blow, also Just where the fight took place. Some witnesses clalm that lt took place upstalrs and others downstalrs.

It ls expected that the prosecu-tion will try to prove that Dilwurth tried to force his way into the girls' room and that Cornellus and the father went to their rescue.

State police were callcd to the stand today to identlfy an ax and club as the weapons found at the homestead.
