ANNAPOLIS PLEBES
CONFINED TO 'SAVE
BothThoy and Upper Classmen
Whom They Accuse Are Segre
' gated Prbtest Results
COMMANIftNT AT ACADEMY
STARTS OFFICIAL INQUIRY
First-year students at the Naval
Academy at 'Annapolis, including eleven
Philadelphia boys, are ticlng punished
for th'o delinquencies of upper classmen,
in tho attempt which the authorities'
at the academy are making to break up
a violent epidemic of hazing there.
Admiral A. Henry Scales, command
ant oMho academy, .has segregated the
"plcbcs," as the men of tho entering
class arc called, as well, as tlic,'upper
plnnnmon
The "plcbcs" have been Ordered to
remain in one wing of Bancroft Hall,
thoymombcrs of tho' higher classes In ah
otheV. Both the younger and the older
students resent this Btrongly, the upper
classmen because they feel that they aro
being punished for exercising what they
"consider a time-honored right, and the
plcbcs because their liberty Is restricted
for no offense of theirs.
Dismissals Expected
It was rumored at Annapolis today
that members of the upper classes
would be dismissed for having taken
nart in hnzinff. Admiral Scales said
that ho had recommended, two upper
class students for dismissal, out nau
been Induced to relent b.v tho relatives
arid friends of one mnn before he sent
in his namo to the Navy'Dqpartmcnt.
The second mnn lias been recommended
for dismissal, and hlR name-turned over
to the Navy Department-for Investiga
tion. In the first case,. Admiral Scales said
tho man was a member of the second
class; that Is a third-year student.
One of the officers of the, academy had
seen hlmJcomo dp behind, a plebo who
wa going upstairs aod pull his hat
uou over ihb cjrn, iuiiiiiu. uum,
to whom the case was reported, took
summary action. Though he relented
when it came to recommenuing tno
stdent's dismissal, ho cavo him 100
demerits nnd sentenced him to a term
in the prison ship, tho Ileina Mercedes.
Other students, though how many
could not be learncd.arc confined to the
"brig" awaiting trial for hazing or
drinking..
,. All Know of iiailng
Residents of AnnapoJIs? said today
that every one 'knew about tho hazing,
which went on constantly in spite of
efforts to ston it. One Annapolis,'man

Admiral Scales said that hazing wns

two highest classes t had been given sea
'duty and tho entering class had been so
numerically superior to tbomnper clnss-
men who remained thnt the plebcs of
that year had "horsed" their ciders.
From that time on, tho admiral said,1
the upper classmen had been "getting
even."
Commander Douglas Ia Howard, in
chnrgc of athletics at the academy, said
today he did not believe tho upper class
men would try to carry out threats to
break up the Army-Navy game as a
means of showing their resentment
against tho hazing investigation. The
game' is to bo held in New York on

was overshadowed byqn announcement
that Dr. Joseph Swain, president of the

close of tho present academic year.
IllnesH was gWcn as the reason for
Dr. Swain's resignation. For nearly

Came From Indiana
In 1002 Dr. Swain resigned the nresl-
dency of Indiana University tq, uccepi

is a graduate of Indiana. University,
class of 188.'!, and served In the facul

wns that tlie coljege be placed on a

MISS SOPHIE BEAUVEAU NORRIS
in need of the supervision of experts.
As a society girl who has spent most of
her life in rather Intimate connection
with social functions of all kinds, it
seems to Miss Norris that she ought to
be able to pit her knowledge to profes
sional and paying use.
And it isn't excitement merely that
Miss Norris is after. ,
"Of course I liko the excitement well
enough," said Miss Norris, "but I
think women as well as men should be
permanently occupied. I'm tired of the
butterfly life."
Miss Norris is the daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. O. Heide Norris. of 2104
Locust street, and Germnntown. Her
father is a prominent lawyer.

Hotv's This for

Chestnut street, 230 shakes.
Fifty-second street, 203 jumps.

He'll glvo you 2.T0 of them every

you're traveling on the wings of the

If a man drives eight miles over tho

But the resounding wallops that reach
the motorist through the shock-nb.

Maybe the greatest kindness in the

PUBLIC WILL PAY GLADLY, '
SAYS TREASURER UPHAM
By CLINTON W. GILBERT
Staff Correspondent Evenlnx Publlo I.edgr
Copurloht, Jilt,bv ruolfo LtAeer Co.
Chicago. OcW. 30. The . Republican.
National Committee will face, on the
day after election, a deficit of about
52,000,000. This enn be stated upon
the highest authority.
The exact amount of the deficit has
not yet been figured up The bills nre
not all In. At the time of Treasurer
Fred W. Upham's recent statement,
published Thursday, the National Com
mittee ha spent .$3,442,802. Thnt fig
ure will bo Bomewhac increased when
ail bills arc paid.
And, In addition, the national com-'
mlttco made itself responsible for sup
plying the Senate and Houso Repub
lican committees with funds. These
two congressional committees spent be-,
tween $700,000 'ana $800,000.
Altogether, the national committee
will have to raise this year between'
$4,000,000 nnd $4,500,000. The best
estlmntc of those familiar with its.
finances is thnt-it will fall short of the
amount needed by about $2,000,000,
which deficit will have to bo made urn
after election day. r 1
Heaviest Deficit in History
This is by far the biggest party'
deficit in history. Tho biggest previous
one was that of the Democratic part)
in 1010, when the Democrats owed on
election day $050,000. As already ex
plained in this correspondence a fort
night ago, when it wns estimated that
the Republican deficit would be more
thnn Sl.000,000, the failure to collect
adequate funds wns due to the $1000
limit upon contributions.
Republican collectors combed the
country for contributors and failed to
raise much more thnn $2,000,000. The '
Republican budget was abqut $3,
200,000. In uddition, the Republican
House and Senate committees had to be
provided with funds.
After election day the $1000 limit
will be abandoned. Sums up to $25,000
will probably be accepted in order to
make up the huge deficit.
"The Renuhlirnn tuirtv in n !
and- going concern," said Treasurer.
Upham yesterday. "It will have no
difficulty raising the money to meet tho
defWtra7rt9--yiH-l)e- especially true If
Mr. Harding is elected, as I expect him
to be. Many men who gave $1000 were
anxious to give more. They will give
more to make up the deficit."
East Not So Liberal Tills Year
Contributions fell short in tho East.
Ordinarily the East gives 80 per cent
of the money used by both po'itlcal
parties in the campaign. The Repub
licans planned this year to get a larger
share of the money from the rest of the
country. Their quotas called for CO
per Cent of the funds from the East and
40 per cent from the West. But the
East, usually giving in sums larger
than $1000, fell down this time. It
raised only nbout the same' amount as
the West.
There were more contributors this
year thnn ever before, about 38,000
before the convention nud 50,000 after,
but the average contribution under the
SI 000 limit was too small. Fifty thou-
I sand contributors after the convention is,
I ten times the number that contributed
to the Republican campaign fund in
1010 in the corresponding period.
'Was the $1000 limit a good thing?"
Mr. Upham was asked.
"I don't think that a man who, gives
$100, as compured with $1000, snyby
John D. Rockefeller, is being fairly
treated. There should be a limit, but
$25,000 would be nbout right. No one
can get nu 'underholt' on tho govern
ment, as Cox charged, for $25,000,
Wheu we are through we'll show just
what we have raised and what we have
spent and what we spent it for.
"Large amounts went back to states.
Ohio alone got a couple of hundred
thousand. Not a single subscription of
more than $1000 came from Ohio ; npt
one from the East. Just a few from
the West, principally from California
nnd Oklahoma, and a few from Illi
nois. Not one over $5000. Although
thirty -two exceeded the $1000 limit,
the average was $2200. You can't buy
much of an 'underholt' nor many 'bay
onets' with that."
Opposes Limit of $1000
"Will the $1000 limit be applied to
future campaigns?"
"Not if 1 um tho treasurer. The limit
is nlj right for the money needed before
the convention, but not nfter. I believo
in the utmost publicity for tho budget,
for subscriptions nnd expenditures. Tho
patty should bo required to make fre
quent statement during tho campaign.
If a rich mnn contributes $20,000 It
ought to be told. It will not scatc uny
body to death. If we don't do anything
behind closed dooiv, in scciet, no one
will kick."
"What was tho biggest previous defi
cit'?" "That of the Democratic party four
years ugo, about $050,000."
"How was thu amount raised?"
"Through ambassadorships."
"Will it be raised that way this
time?" '
"Not on our Ilfo! The American
people will pay it, pay it gladly, pay
It from coast to const." ,
"Will they be limited to $1000 sub-,
scriptiou "
"Nor If I hnvo my way. It would be
ridiculous. It is a business proposition
and ought to" be dono in n business-like
wnj. If the Cox $15,000,000 charge hiul,
been trm, it would have been only fif
teen cents per head of the population,
That doesn't look liko buying 11 presi
dency. You can't buy n state with
$15,000,000. And I'd like, to say this:
"The presidency never has been
bought, never i)l be bought. The state
nud the country aro uot for mile."
