PAUL, Mar. 17 (ANP) Fifteen years imprisonment in a federal penitentiary was the sentence meted out Tuesday' to John Neal, 49, Soo Line railway, messenger, when he withdrew his plea of not guUty and pleaded guilty to five counts of theft from a nation bank.

When Ncal dlssppeared in January, the shortage was discovered. He gave himself up and assumed working to secure aid for their country. They ridiculed the report as Just another bit of propaganda which might be widely believed in this country, and brought out the fact that if Graziani had had Selassie's crown, he would have sent or brought it.to'Rome long before now, and if Mussolini had the 'crown now, he.

probably would be "hocking" it instead of putting It In a museum as it is reported, so badly is he in nerd of funds. Speaking seriously In answer' to the question whether the negus would accept the offer again made by MussollnJ that he return as puppet emperor, Dr. Bayen stated he would not' do so. The Italians are lirsifch great difficulties that they would like to have the emperor return to pacify the people so that they might turn their attention elsewhere. They hope that sooner or later he may be inclined to consider their offers of personal for himself, but bonding his people Into slavery.

The doctor was vehement In his statement that Selassie would never do this. Regarding the current situation In Ethiopia at the present time, Bayen stated that the Italians could not stay In Ethiopia during another rainy season. At the present tjme. the few large cities and outposts which they occupy are merely They are constantly being attacked, and there is nothing of normal occupation.

T. Edward Jones Hat Kept Alive Traditions of Famous D. C. Institution. Organized in 1865 Has Long Been "Political Football" By JOHN R.

WILLIAMS, Special Correspondent. WASHINGTON, D. Mar. 17 Foremost among the institutions of the Nation's Capital is Freedman's Hospital. It came into being an Act of Congress, March 3, 1865, as a "Bureau for the Relief of Freedmea and Refugees," becoming one or a scries or posi oenum cirea tions so necessary at that time.

Freedmen's Hospital has more than Justified its existence down through the years, since the service that it has rendered la beyond calcula tion. Although it was established for Negroes, there have been hundreds of white patients who too have been treated both in its clinics and as indoor ward patients. Only a few weeks ago Freedmen's Hospital waa visited by Mra Franklin D. Roosevelt, who showed a marked Interest in its activities. Mrs.

Roosevelt was particularly outspoken in her praise of the institution. She expressed a wish that sufficient appropriation might always be made to provide for its proper function in every regard. Political Football IJke Howard University, Freedmen's Hospital has often been used as a political football by Congress. Time and again the future of the Institution has been In Jeopardy by threatened curtailment of Its appropriations. I a 1 a 1 11th hour restorations have come thru the benevolence of Senators or Congressmen in.

whose states or districts have been considerable NcRto votes. This year when Freedmen's Hos pital came to grips with the har assing problems of appropriations, it had at the helm Dr. T. Edward Jones as surgeon. ln chlef and one who is giving to Freedmen's progressive and efficient government of its affairs.

Not only was Dr. Jones able to convince Congress of the urgent nerd of providing, the 1400, 030 stipulated in the budget re quest, but he succeded In getting an additional $70,000 for hospital equipment and repairs such as painting, plumbnng, etc Incidently the personnel was Increased by the addition of one assistant social worker; an assistant ray technician; another ambulance driver, another cook and another matron. Moreover, the present administra tion is In the midst of a campaign to provide ISO beds for a tubercul osis unit as an addition to the Institution. Dr. T.

Edward Jones, In discuss ing his program, frankly states that his chief objective is to build up at Freedmen's a worthy me Koil center not only for students but to train physicians and to continue serving cltirens In need of hosplt lllzatlon. Dr. Jonea Able Surgeon Aside from being an excellent administrator, Dr. Jones Is also an able surgeon. He found the path to surgery so smooth for him by his association with such master surgeons as Dr.

A. M. Curtis, Dr. Simeon T. Carson, and his prede cessor.

Dr. William Warfleld. that It helped carry him right Into the position which he occupies and for which his own talents and services were destined. Although Washington sometimes' claims him, Dr. Jones is a native of Lynchburg.

Virginia, having been born there May 26. 18S0. He was graduated from the Lynchburg Colored High school at the age of 17 and entered the Government Service here at Washington as a messenger in the Navy Department February, 1899. He was transferred to the War Department as an as sistant messenger and night watchman in 1906, remaining there until October 1, 1912. During this time ha matriculated at Howard University School of Medicine and wag graduated, June Jw TOP SURGEON r.

ft Lfli Dr. T. Fdward Jonea Surgeon ln Chtef of Freedmen's Hospital, Washington, D. C. ing that four year period he con tinued his employment as night watchman.

Fine War Record Dr. Jones served a one year In terneshlp in Freedmen's hospital from October 1, 1912, to October 1, 1913, and waa appointed anestbet 1st February 28, 1914, serving In that capacity until August 17, 1917. when he resigned to enter the Medical Officers' Training Camp at Fort Des Moines, la. He was com missioned First Medi cal Corps, U. S.

Army, October IS, 1917, and sent to Camp Meade. for service. He served in Franca with the 368th Infantry, 92nd Di vision, until the close of the World War. His work In the army produced a profound effect upon his mind. Having seen the transcendent val ue or nospituization to mcntru civilization in an even greater ltget than ever before, Dr.

T. Edward Jones vowed to dedicate his life to hospital work. From that path ha has never swerved. Ha has served In practically every admlnls trstlve of flee at" Freedmen's and waa one of the iliattsr members of the Association of Former Internes of Freedmen's Hospital, composed of practicing physicians living In almost every Stat of the Union. Romance crept into the life of T.

Edward Jones rather early. April 2. 1902. he called to hla side tha girl of his choice Mlsa Leonie Sinkler of S. The story of their love runs true to the pattern set by ambitious but practical Negro youth who needs must have faith in the future' rather than in the present.

Through sacrifice, toil, and devotion Dr. and Mrs. T. Edward Jonea have been able to see the fulfillment of early dreams. STOP THAT THIEF MEN WOMEN Why It Im VIUHIf od Wnkm rnfc you km iii iiMifM wuy ink tjikm TA TABLETS," ttw ptmrrful llltli UblrU that rli om xMnf tlullty umI rvp.
