NEGRO DOCTOR SENTENCED AS DRUG PEDDLER Preacher and Physi'cian Sent %o Atlanta for Ytfar and a Day. ’ inability to explain saiisfactorily to kludge Albrt B. Anderson just how he rinie to purchase 35,<H) grains of morphine in a period <>f twenty mouths resulted in a sentence <•{ one jcar and one day at the Federal Prison lat Atlanta, Ga., being Imposed upon 1 *r. Milton W. Sparks, negro physician and’ preacher of Terre Haute, by Judge Anderson in Federal Court. * * Dr. Sparks, who was under Indictment for selling morphine io drug addiets. entered a plea of not guilty when arraigned May 8. but Tuesday he returned and changed his plea *<> guilty. Federal narcotic officers told Judge Anderson the amount of morphine purchased in twenty months by the defendant was more than the combined purchase of any 31) physicians in the State for the same period. t When Hr. Sparks attempted to Justify liis action by saying he had u?M the morphine in curing addicts, narcotic agents told the court the amount ifsed would supply four treatments a day, for thirty addicts for more than eleven years. Dr. Sparks made a lengthy, statement to the court in which he said be had been Solicited by the narcotic agents to give treatments to addicts as white physicians in Terre Haute were refusing to do this. Judge Anderson frankly said he did not believe this story. When I'r. Sparks mentioned he was a preacher. Judge Anderson said, “You preached on Sunday .and then violated the law the rest of \be week. Y. ii knew you were guilty ofi violating the law didti' tyou?” “I had a faint suspicion I was Innocent,'' ht answered. *

Knowledge of Railroad Not So Essential “What do you know about running a railroad?" asked Henry Fori! of Fred L. Roekelman, manager of the Ford Motor Company's Indianapolis plant. “Nothing," promptly answered Mr. Roekelman. “Then you're just the man I want," said Mr. Ford. And that is how Mr. Roekelman got the Job of manager of the Detroit, Toledo & Ironton Railroad, which the motor magnate owns. Roekelman leaves Saturday to take charge of the railroad. George P. Stelnmetz, who has been his assistant, will take temporary charge of the Indianapolis Ford plant.

WOMEN TO KEEP ‘HANDS OFF 9 IN ST ATE PRIMARY Interest Runs High in Race for Pennsylvania Governorship. By CONSTANCE DREXEL. WASHINGTON, May 17.—“ Hands off Is the policy of Mrs. Harriet Taylor Upton and Mrs. Louise Dodson who are In charge of national organization of Republican women toward the primary elections in Pennsylvania. But, as Mrs. Upton told the writer, “We are watching the situation with keen Interest,” Mrs. Upton has been In Pennsylvania many times recently to attend Republican women's meetings, dinners and luncheons, and both she and Mrs. Dodson were in Harrisburg not long ago. But neither would allow herself to be drawn into the contest among Various-Re-publican candidates. It Is up to the various States to nominate the men they want and then the Republican national committee gets Into the contest to help elect the Repit.lican over thi Democrat at the fall election. One reason why the contest for Governor In Pennsylvania has been watched with particular Interest here is the prominence of Mrs. Gifford Ptnchot who Is well known to all groups of women. Al-

though purposely remaining In the background, Mrs. Plnchot has been right at the helm of her husband's campaign. Whether Mr. Plnchot wins or loses the nomination, here It Is felt the showing he has made in such a short time Is phenomenal, and the general concensus Is that two heads in a family working for the same thing are better than one. What with the tariff and Us 4.000 rates engrossing Capitol Hill, the few special things particularly sponsored by women’s organizations are very much In the shadow just now. ' In fact the ou'y thing being given attention at (he moment Is the bill Introduced In the House by Representative Kahn and in the Senate by Senator Wesley Jones which seeks to coutlnne the work of the United States Interdepartmental social hygiene board under the Department of Justice and to obtain an appropriation of $325,000 for the next 11 seal year. However, probably even this bit of legislation would not be urged at the moment in the face of the monumental tariff under which senators are now sweltering but for the necessity of speed owing to the end of the present appropriation. None was included In the budget because it was supposed the new organization of governmental departments would take care of the social hygiene work in some way or other. If tlie Kabn-Jones bill goes through, ns it Is expected to do, It will be because Congress Is convinced the women of the country want it to. The demand

has come from women's organizations, representatives of which recently appeared before a committee of the aiirgeon generals of the Army, Navy and Public Health Service, and assistant secretaries |of War and Navy. Alßthe national conventions of women recently meeting have indorsed the bill, and It is expected the women's Joint congressional committee will form a sub-committe to work for It at Its next meeting. Lady Astor also gave the movement a boost by a recent statement Indorsing the work of the I United States interdepartmental social hygiene board. She heard all about It when In Baltimore from Dr. Valeria H. Parker, Us executive secretary. Another bill recently Indorsed by two women's national organizations is that against filled milk sold as evaporated milk, tc which is blamed mal-nutrltion of children. It wag introduced by Representative Veight of Wisconsin and given a favorable report by the Committee on Agriculture. MENDELSSOHN CHOIR TO GIVE RECITAL AGAIN The Mendelssohn Choir will give another concert June 8 at the Murat Theater, Perceval Owen, the director, announced at the annual banquet Tuesday night at the Athenaeum. He said it is a rule the choir should not sing for any one organization, but all their concerts (should be open to the public, but during

the week of June 8, the convention of the National Association of Credit Men will meet here, and since the visitors will be from all over the United States, it was deemed advisable by the board to give them a concert. J. I. Holcomb, president of the Mfn--1 delssohn Choir Association, praised the work of the past year and told of Its ambitions for the coming year. I About one hundred and fifty guests attended the banquet, which was a gala affair, with bright colored caps worn by each guest and bright balloons for each one. | A number of brief talks were made by j officers and members of the choir. Among i others who spoke were Mrs. Bertram Day, ; Elmer Steffen and Charles McCarthy. A i check was presented to Mr. and Mrs. ' Owen by Humbert Pagan! on bebalf of j the executive board of the choir in ap- • predation of their work this season. A number of unique stunts were put on during the dinner. These included an impersonation of Perceval Owen, conductor of the choir, by Charles McCarthy. George A. Smith gave a pep talk in imitation of his father Andrew Smith, a member of the executive board. Several cabaret selections consisting of duet and quartet numbers were sung by Mrs. Everett C. Johnson, Miss Ruth Sterling, Mrs. Glenn Friermood, Harry Calland and Edward La Sbelle. The entertainment concluded with a number of fictitious radio messages to the audience in which the eccentricities of some of the prominent members of the choir were burlesqued.
