PAGE TWO EGYPT RELEASES 18 ACCUSED M ‘Spiritual Son” of Former Pre mier Zagloul and Other Ac cused by British Freed (By The Associated Press) CAIRO, Egypt, Dec. 15.—Nine teen of the 42 persons arrested in connection •with the wider of Sir dar Stack have been liberated. The public prosecutor considered the evidence against them insufficient and Egyptian law does not provide for “preventive” detention. Those released included three members of the chamber of depu ties. It is understood the ministry of the interior intends to proceed against one of them, Makrem Bey Obeid, who has been a-.rr.'ed by Zagloul Pasha, the former premier as “my spiritual son.” The charge will be that Makren made subver sive speeches.

What e more, it will be a wonder ful boy' On these two points, those who know Mrs. Alice Roosevelt Long worth are agreed. It is not because Alice Long worth herself is a masculine type that Washington cannot, imagine her with any but a son She is far from it. Rather it is because there has always been a vague feel ing that it is too bad Alice wibn her genius of pcsona’ity and her cleyerness, was not a man. The reason for anticipating a remarkable boy : s more obvious. No one has ever expected a greht deal of the Roosevelt tradition front the sons of Theodore Roosevelt, but with Alice it is different. She al ways has been a ‘ real person,” as her father was. Like h'r father she always has possessed the faculty of inflaming the public imagination to a remarkable degree. It is as unthinkable that a child of hers should be commonplace as that field daisies should grow from the seed of a sunflower. He Will Be a Great Leader The day announcement was made of the expected event in the Long worth home, Washington seeresses consulted the omens fo’ the future. “It will be a boy,” each separate prophecy declared. “He will have phenomenal gift of leadership—great seif confidence —will power—love of adventure— courts of Europe will honor him—■ h e will be rich—” Washington believes the seeresses because it had alread - ' made up its mind along the same lines. All the soothsayers agreed that the child would be named Theodore Lee Longworth, a natural assump tion .since Theodore is the name of Lis most distinguished forbear, and. since Alic e Longworth has always retained “Lee” in her own name. It was the maiden name of her mother, Alice Lee, of Boston, who died at Alice’s birth. But the prophecies were incau tious in choosing a rational name for such a child. Ali -c Longworth always has done the, unexpected, and even the coming of the child proves adherence to the rule. If it should occur to Alice to name her son Xerxes Nebuchadnezzar, doubt less she will do so, and think no FOR RENT FOR RENT.—Downstairs apart ment.

An interesting feature of the predictions was the declaration from two crystal gazers that the Longworth son will have a baby sister at some future date. When that Longworth boy grows old enough to read about his mother’s younger days, it’s doubtles going to be a problem to discipline him . What can you do with a child who has this 'for a comeback: “Yes, but mother picked up aspara gus tips in her fingers with her white kid gloves on one night at a White House banquet just to shock somebody!” And it is not because of Alice Roosevelt Longworth alone that the laws of heredity promise the hew 1 baby will have a vivid and original personality. > A host of colorful stories about ' 1 “Old Nick,” grandfather of Nicho las Longworth, are part of the ear- Walker’s “Gift News” The Store or Quality and Service / BAGS GLOVES , HANDKERCHIEFS Special Lot Suede Gloves Beautiful new styles 89c 50c, 69c, 89c 25c 10 50c Each New style, high-grade Bags Kjd Q j QVes $2 0Q ya j ue Fancy Boxes, 3 Hdk'chfs. i $2.50 to $4.98 50c, 65c ?
