MIDSIIF-IAN COACHED CLASS OF CADETS FOR EXAMINATION Students Tell Naval Academy Court of Inquiry Nelson Aided Them. iwKfiPni.iR Md.. June 24. Halph McK. Nelson, tho bright midshipman of. the last graduating class ai mo nuvi Academy, who was recommended for dis missal by tho academy authorities for utlng Improper means In preparing for examinations, again was the target be fore the Court of Inquiry today. Mid shipmen Moore, Sobel, Klncald. Denny and Williams, on tho stand, told of an unofficial class Nelson conducted in Ms room the night before the examination in modern languages. Their stories va ried little. They said they had been told Nelson would help them and that about 15 were coached by tho midshipman. It Is the theory of the Government that Nelson, after knowing that the papers Moss received were tho official examina tions In modern languages, used them In coaching the under classmen. Nelson declares he knew they had been changed and regarded the papers Just as models. Tho real Interest centered about the ad ditional testimony which Midshipman C. if Ileasel, tho youth who wandered around tho department buildings and of fices with a burglar equipment, may give.

Bell, trustee of the .University of Pennsylvania, nnd former Attorney General, took exception today to the state ment Issued by Dr. Lighter Wltmcr, pro fessor of psycology at the University of Pennsylvania, In which the latter ad vocated that the dismissal of Assistant Professor Scott Neorlng be tested by law, "1 disagree with the view ot Professor Wltmcr," said Mr. Bell. "He falls to dis tinguish between a contract of employ ment which has como to an end and a 'removal' of an officer of the faculty dur Ing his term of employment, "In the former case, the contract has terminated. It Is ended. Either party may renew It or not, as may be thought beat. "In the latter case, the Charier Act contemplates and provides for a romoval during tho term of employment, and that such removal Bhall only bo for cause nnd nfter duo and timely notice. "The section of tho 'Statutes' so-called or bylaw of the University, quoted by Doctor Wltmcr, Is entirely consistent with the charter act, and this bylaw expressly provides that: 'The appointment of as sistant professors shall be for a term of one to three years. At tho expiration of tho period specified In the terms of the appointment, such appointment shall bo regarded as terminated, without further notice, unless It shall have beon renewed." "Doctor Ncarlng's contract," he con tinued, "was In accordance with this by law of which he was given notice and was for a year the academic year which has Just ended. "With respect to the Constitution of tho State, to which Doctor Wltmer refers, I do not know what provision ho has In mind, but you will recall tho provision applicable. In spirit, at least, to the pres ent situation that 'appointed officers other than Judges may be removed at the pleasure of tho power by which they Bhall have been appointed." ARTICLE PRAISES TRUSTEES. The trustees of the University of Penn sylvania aro praised by the Alumni Register, tho official organ of the General Alumni Society of the University, and upheld for their action In keeping the university "In tho front rank of edu cational Institutions of tho country." In an editorial In the June Issue, out today. By a curious coincidence the editorial comes at a tlmo when tho trustees aro beset with criticism from many quar ters for their action In dismissing Scott Nriirlng, assistant professor In tho Whar ton School. The article was not Intended to bear any referenco to Nearlng's dis missal, according to Horace Mather Llp plncott, of tho class of 7, editor of tho Register. "Tho article which appears to refer to tho recent action of the trustees," said Mr. Llpplncott, "was given to tho printers on the 12th of this month, which Is pre vious to tho action of tho trustees. It had absolutely no bearing on that case and was written aa one of a series of such editorials intended to bring about a closer relationship between the alumni and the trustees." HARRISON DRUG ACT IGNORED Doctors and Others Who Handle Nar cotics Fail to Register. Unless 3000 or more ' physicians, drug gists, veterinarians and other venders of narcotics and opiates register with tho Internal Revenue Department for tho FlrBt Pennsylvania District before next Wednesday, as required under the Har rison "dope" act which went Into effect March 1, not only will they be liable to extra penalty of 50 per cent, of their tax and a possible fine of J1000, but many will technically bo guilty of another mis demeanor under tho law. Internal Revenue Collector Ledcrer this morning Issued notices to about half of the 70OO venders and handlers of certain drugs to this effect. Ho stated, moreover, that failure to receive these warnings would excuse no one under tho law. When the law went Into effect, for aako of simplifying the department's accounts, dealers In these drugs wero permitted lo pay 31 cents tax for tho months of March, April, May nnd June of this fiscal year, which ends June SO. It Is thought that many have tho Impression that this payment was; for tho next government fiscal year, which begins on July 1, IBH. ailsapprehenslon on this point, however, will not excuse dellnuents from prosecu tion, according to Sir.

Mystery surrounds the plans and Inten tions of the five men who have filed with the Prothonotary an affidavit pre-empting; the title "Jitney Rights Party" as w Political appellation. None of those wha fixed their names to the document will say as much as a word that might AU vulge their purpose. They are Isalnh Heckler, William H. Barnes, Charles Jaggers, John W. Sass ier and Mark Bandberg. Basslcr lives at; 1228 Tucker street, and Heckler at 2324) North Jessup street Political observers say tho filing of th papers has an Interesting significance In that It Is the first action that has at tached to the Jitney the importance ot a, political Issue. Many bellevo the plan of thoeo back of the movement Is lo check any legls wt on by Councils that may unduly re strict or burden those engaged In the Jitney business, or that has for Its ob ject tho subversion of their Interests In favor of tho long-established transporta tion companies. They say the organliors of the new party believe that tho Jllney has a sufficient popularity among the voters to make the question of Its lira or death have a considerable effect on tho personnel of the leglslatlvo bodies In control of It. Isaiah Heckler when seen refused to Indicate In any way what the Intentions or himself nnd his confreres were. "We aro not ready at this time to an nounce anything publicly," he said. "Just an soon as the time Is rlpo the people will know all about It." "Tho politicians," 'ne said, "don't realize what a grip this Jltneybuslncss has on the city. It Is a great doveloment that will revolutionize, as It has done to somo ex tent already, all the old established meth ods of transportation. It appeals too much, you know, to human naturo for It to be possible to ride In as pleasurable thine as an automobile for so small a price. And plnco the people havo had a tasto of It they will not give It up without a fight." FIDELITY LEADERS OUTING Ladies Accompanying Delegates on Sight-Seeing Tour.
