When the giant Fokker, its three mo-. tors ‘singing. almost joyfully, glided down upon Bolling Field at 5 o'clock. a distinguished official party was on hand to greet its commander and crew.

Senators Swanson and McKellar assisted in the perfection of the language which virtually leaves the baa a amendment intact. One. Obstacle Removed. Antinavy advocates had hoped to see this phase of the bill “provoke bitter dissension and delay the bill. The vote yesterday, therefore, eliminates one of the - obstacles which the opponents counted upon for delay. An amend- ment by Senator Bingham to give the Secretary of the Navy discretion in de- ciding where the ships should be built and thereby be able to act in the in- terest of economy was voted down after Senators Swanson, Johnson and others had opposed it.

Such action on the part of the President would relieve President-elect Hoover of an embarrass- ment and « responsibility that he has| not sought. There is a: great feeling of relief as a result of the réport in the House of Representatives, where the controversy over the Harris amendment is raging. No legislation proposed years has brought more trouble to “dry” members of the Senate and House than the $24,000,000 proposed as a free-will offering for prohibition law enforcement. Republican members of the House, with a clean record for the Antisaloon League bills for years, are now forced to quit the league or disregard the warning of the Secretary of the Treas- ury. ; Bishop James EF. Cannon, the new dry leader and prodder, is urging his “dry” friends to stand as one man for the Harris proposal. But, as the situa- tion stands now, Representatives Louis ©. Cramton (Republican), Michigan; Will R, Wood (Republican), Indiana, and other eminent probibitions are ‘supporting Mr. Mellon in his opposi- tion to the bill, Southern Democrats, eager to get back on the dry side, are demanding a show-down vote on the Harris bill. They have two plans for a count on this measure. First, they would have the House instruct its conferees, who will be Representative Cramton, Wood and Byrns (Democrat), support the Senate provision. If. they fail in this move, and the conferees fail to agree, then they will vote to return the bill to conference for an agreement on the Harris amend- ment. President Coolidge, it is understood. supports Secretary Mellon in his Op- position to this allocation of $24,000,000 to the White House to be distributed among the various enforcement agen- cies of the Government. He does not want the lightly considered responsi- bility and does not think that it should be thrust upon his successor. Mr, Coolidge could veto the deficiency bill, just as President Wilson did, be- cause of certain objectionable riders. July 1. 1918.

M’CARL ALSO. PLACATED Prospects for passage of legisiation to correct the Welch act were considerably brightened yesterday when it was learned that the House civil service committee had made an important con- cession to the Senate and to Comptrol- ler General McCarl. In drafting a compromise salary bill, it was learned, the House.civil service committee agreed to amend a provision in the Lehlbach bill that wouid modify the power to be given to the personnel classification board. As originally written in the Lehlbach bill, tt is contended by some, the pro- vision relating to the classification board would have given the board power to go into a Government depart- ment and assign an employe ti; any job it chose, without consulting sng depart- ment head. As amended, it was learned from a member of the committee yesterday, the provisions in the LehIbach bill is s> phrased that the classification board may allocate an employe to a particular grade or salary rating only after con- sulting the head of the department in which that employe works. The em- ploye also would have something to say about it. After its meeting Friday, the civil service committee only announced in a general way the provisions of the — compromise bill upon which it hadi agreed.

Several invitations to what the Floridians are already calling the sum- mer White House have been issued, al- cong ot the identity of those invited nm carefully guarded.

Haddon today fell.6 miles out of the sky and very tersely reported to his commander that his airplane had been wrecked. In that 6-mile fall Haddon experi- enced almost every emotion that can come to an aviator. He lost conscious- ness because of altitude. He “came to” after a fall of 22,000 feet in a nose- diving airplane which had its engine wide open.~ He righted it only to dis- cover his machine was afire. He was bundled in heavy clothing and-for a few moments thought he could not get out of the cockpit. Then he escaped, walked to a wing, leaped off, pulled the trigger string of his parachute and glided to earth. He struck a rock and sprained his back slightly. The airplane crashed 5 miles away, almost totally burned. Falis Like Meteor. The drama of the thing attracted everyone in the district. Farmers could see the flaming machine appearing al- most like a meteor, hurtling down out of the sky. But to Lieut. Haddon, who is a test pilot at Wright Field, it was just an- other episode in his regular Army work. As soon as he landed, he walked to & nearby farm house and almost apolo- getically called the commander of the field to tell about the amazing escape. He merely reported his airplane caught fire in the air and that he was forced to descend by parachute. His plane was wrecked, he explained. But later Haddon elaborated and told the thrilling story of his escape. He started this morning in a PT-5 biplane to try for an altitude record. From then on the story is Haddon’s. “Then I had reached 32,000 feet. My instruments showed a temperature of 60 dégrees below zero. Rarity of the atmosphere made me dizzy but before I could start a descent I became un- conscious. Fire Envelops Ship. Henry Miller Service.

Mr. Hughes spoke before the Bronx Bar Association and severely armfigned the dishonorable and unprofessional elements of the New York bar.

A movement to abolish secret ses- sions of the Senate except in extraordi- Mary cases was started yesterday by Senator Wesgley“L. Jones, of Washing- tom, the Republican whip. as a result of publication last Tuesday by the United Press of the executive roll call by which the Senate confirmed the nomination of Secretary of Interior oO. West. proposed an amendment to the Senate rules to provide that all nomi- mations be considered in public sessioh except when the Senate decides other- wise by a two-thirds vote. His amend- ment would reverse the present situa- tion which requires a two-thirds vote to consider nominations in open sés- Seen as “Wisest Course.” The Republican whip believes there is a good chance now for the proposed change because of widespread interest created by the rol] call. He will have the cooperation of such constitutional authorities as Chairman Norris, of the Senate judiciary committee; Senators Borah, of Idaho, and Walsh, of Mon- tama. “] believe it is the wisest course to consider nominations in open session,” Jones said after introducing his amend- ment. “The Senate confirms most of the President’s nominetions as a matter of course when no opposition is ex- pressed. “— believe the change would create more respect for the rules. Now, of course, most executive business finds its way into public print. Favors Public Sessions. “When two-thirds of the Senate de- cides there is reason for considering a nomination in closed executive session my amendment would permit the de- bate and the vote to remain secret. My intention is to shift the burden in favor of public. sessions instead of se- ctet sessions.” Jones said he would seek to have a vote on his proposal because he be- lieved most senators needed no further time for consideration of it. It may, however, be referred. to the rules com- mittee if any one objects to an im- mediate vote upon it. The present rule, which provides ex- Puilsion for any senator disclosing ex- ecutive business, has never been en- forced. Although no executive roll call has been published previously senators talk about what in sessions, and the rule has long been looked upon as an anachronism. U. S.-Mexican Air _ .

Idea, Originated in 1886, to Be Consummated in. 1932 Bicentenary. Construction of the Mount Vernon Memorial Highway, from the Virginia end of Arlington Memoria) Bridge, now being bullt over the Potomac at Wash- possible one of the most noted and beautiful drives in the world—a drive from the Maryland State line through Rock Creek Park, through Potomac Park, and along the Potomac River, passing through historic Alexandria and Fort Hunt in Virginia, to the home and burial place of the first President of the United States. The selection of the river route for the Mount Vernon Memorial Highway was announced Thursday. . Conception of a highway from Wash- ington to Mount Vernon as a memcrial to George Washington originated in 1886. In 1888 the Mount Vernon Ave- nue Association was incorporated by the Virginia legislature; and following an act of Congress in 1889, Brig. Gen. Peter C. Hains, of the Corps of Engineers, United States Army, made und reported a survey of three principal routes and auxiliary connecting lines The idea has been warmly commended ard in- dorsed by Presidents of the United States, by Secretaries of War, by hun- dreds of members of Congress, and by most of the national patriotic organi- Zations. On December 2, 1924, Congress cre- ated the United States commission for the celebration of the two. hundredth anniversary of the birth of George Washington. The commission, headed by the President, consists of four sena- tors, four representatives, eight citi- zens, appointed as commissioners by the President. and four ex-officio com- missioners, consisting of ‘the President, Vice President, Speaker af the House and an éxecutive secretary, Autherized by Congress. Finally on May 23, 1928, the act was passed which authorized the commis- sion, in cooperation with the Secretary of Agriculture, to survey, select, con- struct and maintain a Mount Vernon Memorial Highway, for which an ap- propriation of $4,500,000 was provided. Te the Bureau of Public Roads of the Department .of Agriculture was dele gated the task of surveying suitable routes. Of the two routes surveyed and reported on as to alignment, grades, scenic and historic value, with estimated costs of construction, on Jan- uary 24 the commission chose the river routd. One of the routes surveyed by Gen, Hains in 18869, which he designated the eastern route, approximates in its loca- tion the route selected by the commis- @on. The surveys made by him began at the Aqueduct Bridge, some distance up phe river from the Memorial Bridge, now ‘ing built. In making his report to Congress, he wrote almost propheti- cally: “It would be far more in keep- ing with its character as a national road to have it start from some point On the Arlington estate at the termi- hus of a handsome bridge spanning the Potomac.” The Mount Vernon Memorial High- way will be approximately 1514 miles long, with a right of way 200 feet wide, except in Alexandria City, and with a 40-foot pavement and two 10-foot shoulders. It is to be completed in 1932, under a three-year building pro- gram. At no point will the grade be greater than 6 per cent, and for much of the way it will be less than 1 per cent. Seven or eight masonry bridges will be constructed, ‘monumental in Memorial Bridge,’ and these will carry | 60-foot roadways, with a 5-foot side- walk on each side: Automobile park- ing places will be designated along the route between the highway and the river's bank, particularly at charming spots. Suitable planting. will also be provided along the route. The con- struction will be under the supervi- sion of the Bureau of Public Roads. Starts at Memorial Bridge Starting at the Virginia end of the Arlington Memorial Bridge, the road- way traverses Columbia Island, passes under both the highway bridge and the shore spans of the railroad bridge, and follows the Potomac as closely as to- pography, alignment, grades and plans for future development will permit, to the pustern gates of Mount Vernon. About half-way between Washington and Alexandria, the route passes close to Abingdon, the home of John Custis, Mrs. Washington’s son,. which still stands overlooking the river. Here daughter, was born. A beautiful view of the river and a panorama of Wash- ington atid the north shore are obtained from this point.

In Gadasby's Inn, now the City Hotel, he recruited his first company of provincial troops authorized by Governor Dinwiddie, with. which he fought the Battle of Great Meadows. In the ballroom of the old City Hotel in 1798 was held the first cele- bration of Washington’s birthday. From the steps of the same building he gave his last military command to the Alex- andria Light Infantry Blues, his body- guard during the Revolution; and here, in November, 1799, less than 30 days be- fore his death, he cast is last ballot. At the Carlyle House, still standing, he received his appointment as major in the British Army on General Brad- dock’s staff; and iu this house also, at the convention of ‘the five governors assembled to confer with General Brad- dock, the first suggestion of colonial taxation was made, the step which ulti- mately led to the revolt of the colonies. Other places still standing in the city and intimately associated with the life of Washington are homes of Dr. James Craik and Dr. Elisha Cullen Dick, his family physicians, and the home of Light Horse Harry Lee, and of his two famous sons, Robert E. and Sydney Smith Lee.

That was one precedent for Mr. Coolidge. He also vetoed the Postoffice ': De- partment appropriation bill on accéunt of the provision with fegard to “the rental of pneumatic tubes.” There were others. But, the belief that the President | will veto the deficiency bill because of the Harris amendment, may not save trembling representatives from a »rec- ord vote, the one thing they would prevent now.

Counting the votes they expect to draw to the support of the proposal to place $24,000,000 in. the hands of the President for prohibition enforcement, Democratic leaders yesterday expressed confidence that they would be able to obtain House approval of the huge expenditure voted by the Senate. No indication yet has been given by Republican leaders as to when the defi- ciency bill carrying the highly con- troversial appropriation will be brought to the floor of the House, but Repre- sentative Tilson, of Connecticut, the majority leader, said he did not expect While the Democrats were hopefu) that they would be able to draw enough support from the dry membership of both parties to put the amendment, over, many members of the Republican party would venture no prediction as to the dutcome of the balloting on the proposal.

The new policy whereby coal is being exported om American ships under Shipping Board auspices was hailed as successful here yesterday by Arthur/ Hale, chairman of the Coal Exporters’ Association, who said more American coal had gone to Mediterranean ports in American ships in the last two months than in the last two years. Congress appropriated a million dol- lars to facilitate this policy. The Ship- ping Board especially has put three vessels in’ the trade and is fiting ou} three more.

The fact that Mann has come into some promi- nence from what was political obscurity last summer, is wormwood to a number or“ ul” Hoover-for-President. Re- publicans.

Although identi- pny BA yrs ago with politics in Tennessee; his interest for the most part remained academic until the last or 5 He is s° Southerner, born and and to a man those who came in contact with him during the last summer and fall say that he has a sym- pathy and understanding of the South, especially tically, which matches that of any man ever called into a po- litical work affecting the whole section. Washington has been the scene of Mann's operations for some time. He has a large practice before th Bureau of Internal Revenue—he specializes in tax cases. During the Harding adminis- tration he enjoyed the friendship of a number of Republicans of national prominence, and his work before the Internal Revehue Bureau has given him many contacts. The explanation of Mann's approach to Hoover is a matter for conjecture, but there are stories in circulation which tie up so logically with recent events and developments as to give them a degree of credence. ' Claudius Huston, one time assistant to Hoover in the Commerce Depart- ment, now of New York City, and Hor- ace Mann are close friends. Both are from Tennessee. Shortly after the Kan- sas City convention another of Hoo- ver’s Commerce Department associates was placed in charge of the Southern division of the campaign. He was Wal- ter Brown, formerly a political figure in Toledo, who was brought to Wash- ington and made Assistant Secretary of Commerce. Brown Changed ‘Territory. ‘Brown made a “survey” trip over the South early in the summer but for some reason he did not fit in with the plans for the section. iis activity was transferred to Ohio, where’ he is re- ported to have done effective work, and Eorace A. Mann was called in. Whether Claudius Huston had a part in it, or whether Mann himself had op- portunities years ago to talk with Hoover about politics in the South, and gave such an account of his views as to leave a profound conviction of their efficacy is not known, or of par- ticular interest.

We were even contemplating mtrimony. To- day—well, we are just friends.” : Young Goelet got his first peep otf Miss Groody when she was playing in “Hit the Deck” in Boston last spring. He quit Harvard in his freshman year shortly afterward and was soon sent on a trip around the world to forget romance. And today in Los Angeles he said, “Tush, tush; that is a lot of boloney about me marrying Miss Groody.° O'DONOGHUE ALSO: TALKS Gurney E.

WOULD COST $500 DAILY Detroit, Jan. 16 (A.P.).—Refusal of to a reduction in the bail bonds of Ralph A. Wood and Ceécil T. Holt, held at Centerville on warrants charging them with robbing the Sturgis, Mich., National Bank, brought from Wood's counsel today an intimation that he may appeal to the State Supreme Court. Despite the development of what. ap- bank holdup, James xed yes- terday for the two men. Holt were arrested early yesterday on information given by Wood's estranged wife, Mrs; Grace "M. Wood. The latter is herself under $560,000 bond on & charge of plotting to kill Wood. Arnold Zeleznik, attorney for Wood, after a day spent in seeking to bring about a reduction in the. bond, re- turned to Detroit from Centerville to consider the advisability of attempt- ing to raise the full amount. demanded. ‘}En route back he sought to get Oir- cuit Judge Clayton Johnson, at Cold- water, to intervene and order a hear- ing on the amount of the bond. Unsuccessful, he explained that the $50,000 bond required would cost Wood and Holt each approximately $600 «a day, or $5,000 for the ten days between now and February 5, the date set for the preliminary examination of the two men. If satisfactofy arrangements for the bond can not be made, he inti- mated he might seék a State Supreme Court order to review the petition for a reduction in the amount. While Zeleznik’s efforts to obtain the freedom of the two men were being o posed by authorities at Centerville, documerits were being produced here in- 'tended to show that Wood had made purchases In Detroit stores at the time of the bank holdup and that Holt was &t his desk in a local automobile plant office.

Daniels Assails Kaiser. Raleigh, N. C., Jan. 26 (U.P.)—~— Josephus Daniels, Secretary of the Navy under President Woodrow Wilsdn, com- mented tonight upon the statement of Kaiser Wilhelm to the United Press, with the remark that “there would never have been any World War if the kaiser had been as zealous to keep the world out of war as he is now to avoid responsibility for his failure in 1914,” The former Navy Secretary was out- spoken in his denunciation of the kaiser. He’ mrust bear “through the ages,” he said, “the main responsibility for that tragedy.” “The whole world knows that if he had acceded to Earl Grey's appeal for time and been willing to make a sacri- fice, if need be, to avert the World War, there would have been no war,” the Wilson Cabinet member said.

In limiting the power of the clas- sification board, the House civil service committee has met one of the most important demands of Senator Smith. W.

But he did not press a request for an answer, At 2 o’clock it looked as if the Navy opponents were preparing to attempt another filibuster when Senator Nye got the floor and began a speech about the Rockefeller-Stewart case. Senator Brookhart called for a quorum and asked questions at intervals of Nye while Senator Norris joined in the dis- cussion.

Of all the subjects in’ the crowded curriculum of the modern school, English easily takes precedence. Frank Forest Bunker, in the ‘“‘Reorgani- gation of the Public School System,” says, “No. one thing, perhaps, adds more to the. personal influence of anh indi- vidual than the ability to express him- self in oral and written form in terse, idiomatic English.” Language is the medium through which the ideas gained from the manifold and vdried ing language errors before they become habitual. Im the ki this same procedure is followed with the in- creased and the larger social unit. Although the still remains on the clear free expression. of thought throughout. the elementary school, the teacher is per- sistent in her efforts to eliminate the common errors of speech, ing the habit of self-criticism. munication is ished the use of life situations, incl The important fact must not. be ignored, however, that the wholesome depends largely on the realization by guage lesson.

In all his relations in life— at work, or at play, the rapidly develop- ing mind must have the power of self- expression.

THE W * RIDDLES IN CRIME THE MYSTERY OF THE CONCERT SHOOTING By JOSEPH KAYE _ 4 Once more readers of The Washington Post have proven themselves clever in amateur detective work. Solutions * last week's\" Riddle in Crime”’—*“The Secret of the Plane Crash”—show that readers follow the story closely and are te in their deductions as to how the author will conclude the story. This week’s prize, another book of detec- of mystery fiction, goes to P. H.

PETERS. = » eres although Mike got clear of the machine as it fell, Mann, most likely because he became entangled in the machine as it tilted over, could not jump and was killed. This conclusion is the only one pos- gible when we examine the facts. True, the enmity between the men and the climax of Mann's promotion provided a possible cause for a vengeful action on Mike’s part; but, if Mike wanted to stall the motor purposely, Mann, sitting at the dual control, would have known of it. and could prevent him. Mike might have struck Frank over the head and stunned him but there were no marks to indicate this. Nor could he have attempted to wedge Frank's legs or body without the latter know- ing it. and putting up a fight, in which @control and both men would have had to jump for their lives. That would have saved them both because the parachutes had been examined before the plane left. To continue on this line argyment it might be ventured that had such a fight occurred and Frank knew his parachute was not in working order he would not have jumped but taken a chance at trying to guide the plane to a safe landing. But there was no way in which Mike might have tampered with Frank's parachute He might have done that if Frank dozed, but they were only two hours out of the flying field and Frank would not have felt sufficiently tired then to doze off, especially with Mike as a companion. Besides, how could he have known his parachute was broken? Then there is the fact that the plane fell when it was over a large stretch oi wooded land and Mike himself was injured in coming down with his para- chute. If he wWanted to kill Frank, Mike would logically have stalled the motor—or otherwise injured the ship— | over level ground where he could have alighted rae Had he done this the same story he planned to tell would have served equally well and there would have been no risk of injury for him.

Determination of the proportions of racial stocks in the U United’ States in 1790 was reported yesterday to the an- nual meeting of the American Council of Learned Societies by a committee headed by Prof. Walter F.

Not only does the white-haired senator occupy several key positions:in the upper house, where his unflagging interest in aero- nautical matters is of the greatest value to flying, but as president’ of the National Aeronautical Association he is injecting into that organization a fresh spirit which promises much for this | and future years. | In the Senate Mr. Bingham hasvsup- | ported and fought for legislation which | has been largely responsible for the | rapid advance of aviation in the United | States during the past few years. His | favorable report, for the committee on | commerce, on. the air commerce bill was of great aid in securing its pas- sage.

The forum will meet on Monday evenings in the lodge room in the Jewish Community Center. Rabbi Louis J.

His address will deal with a resiew of the book, “Jews Are Like Wife, Seeking Divorce, - Calls Auto Racer Lazy fos Angeles, Jan. 26 (A.P.).—Bennie Hill, internationally known automobile race driver, was sued for divorce in Su- perior Court today by Lillian M.

Senator Bingham has thrown his weight solidly behind the proposal to establish a municipal airport for Wash- ington at Grave.iy’ Point, and both in Congress and elsewhere has hammered home the humiliating position of the Capital of the United States as the least adequately equipped for aviation of any world capital. He has been a friend of the Army Air Corps and has diligently fought every attempt to weaken that highly important branch of the military service. He vigorously supported passage of the bill authorizing the construction of two large rigid airships for the Navy, and has given a great deal of thought and attention to the possibilities of lighter-than-air craft for military and commercial use. With remarkable foresight and energy, Senator Bingham has pursued aeronautical matters through their sometimes stormy course in Congress, and Ras kept his atten- tion on the future possibilities of avia- tion as well as its present needs. or Quartermaster officer, instead of an- Just at the, present time, Senator Bingham is sponsoring an amendment to the air commmerce act of 1926 which would regulate flying schools in the United States through the Depart- ment of Commerce. This rep#ilation would be secured through an annual examination and rating of these schools. The value of such regulation is ob- vious. would be relieved of any doubt as to the efficacy of the course offered by any. school in the United States. The pilot, when he had completed his dual instruction, would be trained to a known degree of efficiency, and the possibliity of sending out half-trained pilots to crack themselves up and en- danger life and property in general would be minimized. With a proponent of aviation so ar- dent and able in Congress and at the helm of aviation’s most powerful or- Fanization in the United States, flying should go far in a very short period of time. Thea younger generation. which is growing up air-minded and air-enthusiastic, will find its path’ pre- pared by men of ability and influencs. such as the Connecticut senator, who have found their way sometimes dif- ficult, but have fought to the inevi- table end.

A separate promotion list would eliminate the inequalities and unfair- ness of the present system and would provide experienced pilots with an in- centive to remain in the Army, where their abilities would be of increasing service to the Nation. As it is, an Air Corps officer no sooner distinguishes himself in the performance of a valu- able mission in the air than he is snapped up by commercial concerns who present offers too alluring for him to resist in the face of his dull pros-| pects in thé military service. | ss «© ¢© # While it is not the purpose or the | desire of this column to open contro- | versies Or to step aside even briefly from its declared role, it is impossible to pass a condition now existing which | bodes ili to Army flying without. com-| ment.

MacCracken, jr., assistant Secretary of Commerce for Aeronautics, has given Congress figures to show an enormous growth in investments by the public in aviation. Three -years ago, MacCracken said, the investments of the public in _ aviation totaled Since then the sum has increased to $150,000,000. “There is an interesting fact.” Mr. MacCracken said. “We have received close to 19.000 original medical appli- cations. The Army and Navy during the ‘war trained only about 16,000 aviators in that terrible emergency. “Another interesting fact is that aviation insurance rates in the last three years have been cut on an aver- age of 40 per, cent, and the coverage has broadened.” : —* Air Corps’ appropriation will suf- ce. In the first place, 110 planes which are badly needed, will have to be dis- pensed with. Secondly, training for reserve officers, which is even now in- adequate, will have to be cut to one hour a month, on account of lack of funds to purchase gas and oil, Thirdly, the five-year building program, whica included a number of shops and tech- nical units, will be seriously held up. The present inefficiency of much Air Corps equipment, especially en- gines, is not generally known.

His Support of Al Smith Had Weakened Strength Before Voters. The Georgia friends and political ad- visers of Senator William J.- Harris, the man who surprised the country by get- ting a $24,000,000 prohibition enforce- ment item through the Senate, are telling him that he has nailed down re- election in 1930 and another six-year lease on 228 Senate Office Building. Considering that the same friends and political advisers were telling Har- ris two months ago that in all prob- ability he would have a hard row to hoe a year from next fall, it is not dif- tand Heflin, ficult to understand that in the privacy of his office these days the senator is smiling gleefully and shaking hands with himself. Whatever the merits of the $24,000,- 000 item and regardles of whether the House tears down Senator Harris’ play- house, it is obvious to observers famil- lar with political conditions in Georgia and the South that Harris made a move calculated to rekindle friendship among a large element that lost confidence in him during the presidential campaign. May Have to Explain. Those friends of successful Southern politicians who dash to the front with denials that Democratic stalwarts suf- fered loss of confidence still have to ex- plain why, in Georgia for example, 99,- 000 citizens voted for Herbert Hoover in the face of threats of dire disaster and a hullabaloo raised by both United States senators and all twelye repre- sentatives in Co ‘ Quite a few senators from South of the Mason-Dixon line are on the look- out for opportunities suth as Harris capitalized. The situation that con- fronted Harris, and still confronts him, is lying in wait for every Democratic senator whose term expires in i931. Excepting Simmons, of North Carolina, of Alabama, the South-- erners trailed along with former Gov. Alfred E. Smith and now their thoughts are centered on convincing their con-, stituents that, after all, they supported Smith with tongue in cheek. Few will have the easy time that Senator Har- ris is opening up for himself. It is an irony of the political game, to say~the least, that one of the bit- terest foes of prohibition, the. “lame duck” senator, Bruce of Maryland. should have handed over to Harris. re- garded as_a stanch dry, an idea that subsequently is converted into one of the finest pieces of political capital wrought on the Democratic side of the Senate. It was Bruce who amended the Treasury De ment approprition bill: with a. $270,000,000 handout for prohibition. When the item )was squelched the drys vociferously ¢ried that Bruce and wets sought to @amn prohibition in the mind of the Nation by making its cost too heavy. It was Harris who saw in Bruce’s gesture a possibility. His Sincerity Not Questioned. The sincerity of the Georgia senator is not questioned here, despite that he will be under attack in Georgia. His friends, and he himself, are relying on the native capacity people have for forgetting when they ponder the pos sible projection of his presidential campaign activities into his personal campaign for the Senate.

Senator Wal- ter F. George. Anti-Smith sentiment oe the eve of the convention Harris caused to, have printed in Georgia po tie a statement from his physician advising against a trip to Houston because of sinus affection he had suffered for weeks. He debated a long time whether to go, or to return to and keep still, and finally decided that if he fell down on Senator George the reaction would be more damaging to him than if he hazarded the dangers of the cenvention. . He fought Smith as long as there was a fight in anybody. Dependable sources reported later that on the train return- tion members were physically sick over the result. Friends of Harris told him to go off to the mountains of north Georgia and stay in seclusion. “Keep out of this mess,” they sold him, “Don't argue with anybody who plans to vote t Smith. Tell the ~ influential folks who are against him that you are }sorry you have to support him and in- good, brave citizens for standing up to their convictions.” Saw No Danger in Smith. But it didn’t work. Clarke Howell, publisher of the Atlanta Constitution, and John 8S. Cohen, Democratic national committeeman and publisher of the Atlanta Journal, newspapers dominat- ing the field in Georgia, and on which Harris depends for valuable eupport— began putting the screws on every of- ficeholder in the State. from United States senator on down through the counties. After putting it off as long as possible under the tances, Harris came out with a statement in which he told the “people of r that he was supporting Smith,, and furthermore, that he could not support Smith if he, Harris, an ardent. prohi- bitionist, thought Smith would “en- danger ition.” : , Unit tely, Candidate Smith chose an evening only a few days away to say something to the folks in Mil- waukee about beer being good for chil- dren, and it wasn’t three weeks before Candidate Smith was advocating Gov- ernment and State control of liquors.

Too Much Money Is Dangerous, . Says Prof. Fisher in Warning| Dollars, However Abund- ant, Always Seem Scarce, Economist Asserts. By IRVING FISHER. Professor of Economics jn Yale University. — As: stated in the last chapter, pe public imagine that a iow price ievef is due to an abundarice of goods and « “high cost of living” to a scarcity of goods—that a fall or rise of the price level represents a .sort of feast or famine in goods. We have found, on the contrary, that it represents, rather, a famine or feast in money. The in- flation and deflation are not merely relative; they are usually also absolute. «Once ‘this important fact is ree- ognized, the whole aspect of rising and falling price lévels will change in the public mind. A “high cost of living” in which there was a real scarcity -of food, clothing, shelter, and other goods, would mean a general impoverishment, a lowering of per capita real income; but a “high cost of living” caused by inflation does not—not directly, at least—meah any average reduction in human wellbeing; or it does not, to put it another way. mean any lessening of the stream of goods.per.capita. , _ ‘Evidently, if a man who formerly got $2,000 a year now gets. $4,000, while the also exactly doubled he is no worse off of than before. His present-day dollar 5 ys only half: of he has two dollars for every one he had before, his real condition has not The high cest of living. which alaim-. before and during the by a corresponding higher average of money incomes, and,;therefore did not mean, as those people imagined, any great progressive impoverishment of the Nation.

The actual conditions were not. as bad as A Bookkeeping Change? But if we grant that price-movemenis importance? — It would, indeed, be Of no importance if everybody's income wére adjusted to the change in prices. But this is not and can not be the case. Even if our physical yardstick should vary. such a change, though purely a bookkeeping matter, would confuse all commitments of merchants made in terms of yards, 1. The physical yardstick merely ef- fects ‘the of those few wlich happen be messured in yards. I. ws important in the ribbon market but -not.in the wheat. sugar, cotton, coal, oll, lumber, or stee. markets. Its variations would not affect the sales of goods measured in bushels, quarts, ce ds, pounds, tons, acres, gallons, kilo- watts, or days’ work. The monetary yardstick, on the other hand, affects all sales. In every sale where we find the yard a: the goods- units, we find the dollar as the money; units; so Many yards of carpet are sold for sO many dollars of monev. Likewise every commitment in pounds, bushels, quarts or anything else, involves a com- mitment in dollars... The dollar is used as much as all other units put together. If, then, we are at such pains to standardize or stabilize the yard, the pound, and every other goods-units, weights and measures to cheating of the public changes in those prevent the to every hase and sale! (2.) This m Goliars of today are dollars of the future. There are. be sure, time contracts in. yards and uent. less im t and to = pay Government bonds, leases, annuities co ' prices of all things he has to buy are. what his former dollar bought; but, as). products (a surplus | having—as we do—officia: sealers of hecauss of » applying, as it does, monetary yardstick is used for long-time contracts, in which the. exchanged for to other units, but they are far less fre- of shorter money—promissory notes, debentures, railway bonds, THE STORY SO FAR: In the Arst three chapters Prof. Fisher showed .that the failure to perceive that the dollar expands or shrinks in .alue constitutes the Money Illusion. Instead of a high cost of living having been caused by a rise in commodity prices we | find that it was really the- dollar which fell. Also, if the circulation of money and the circulation of ‘godds should kecp going on at ‘the same even space, year after year, there cou’ b no chan, tn’ the general level of prices. There ‘could be.no change if these two streams were both to grow greater or less at the same rate. But they do not. Whatever happens, as far as the price level is concerned, the only important fact is the relation ‘be- tween these two circulations. It is important to note that if the cir- culation of money increases, rela-. tively. to the circulation of the goods | the price level will rise, and if the circulation of money decreases rela- tively to the citculation of goods, the price level will fall. Prom the : preceding chapt rs it can be con- cluded that the general level of ‘ prices is raised or lowered (which means the ,urchasine power of the dollar is lowered or raised), by the circulation of n-oney outrunning that of goods or the reverse. In actual fact the money flow is so unsteady as comjared with he goods flow that, in practically all important cases, this inflation or defiation is not only relative but also absolute; there is an absolute increase or decrease in the per} capita money flow without any great change in the per capita goods flow. We can therefore say more simply: The dollar usually falls through in- lation and rises through deflation. : — harm can.be done to society as a whole either by inflation or deflation, since the average wealth would not be ch anged. . ‘But one might as well reason that when a bank vault is robbed or when your house, is burglarized society is general - ment; it is social injustice. Unlike burglary or personal fraud, there is no violation of the letter of the law as to debts, but there is a defeat of its spirit and.intent. There is no such thing as a safe bond, issued for any number of dol- ‘lars, utitil we have a safe (stable) dol- to be lar. What dues the mise paid one thousand “dollars” fifty years from now amount to? It is the prom- ise to pay one thousand X’s (unknown quantities), since, under our present monetary system, no one can foresee :| what the dollar will be worth 50 years from now. We are very careful to goods; hedge around the promise—by guar- antees, liens, mortgages—-so that those one thousand X’s will surely be. paid; but we are not at all carefyl as to wha: the X is—simply because it is carelessly assumed. taken for granted, that it will remain the same We think we have made a loan “secure,” and talk of “securities” without real- izing what mockeries such terms are. Objects of Charity. Extreme examples are always the clearest. The story is told of a Polish clothier, deciding to retire from busi- ness, who sold his 100 suits c: clothes for 100,000 Polish marks and invested thé proceeds in a “secure” three-year mortgage at 6 per cent, thus receiving 18,000 Polish marks in interest and the safe .zturn of his 100,000 Polish marks of principal at the end of three years. But. this whole 118,000 Polish marks would then ‘uy only cne suit of clothes! _ Nominally had received 6 per cent interest. Actually he had lost practically all, interest and prin- cipal alike. A famous professor at Berlin had made a small fortune from the sale of his books. He invested it in so-called “safe” bonds with the expectation of living on,.the income. At the end of the inflation period he found that his whole fortune, the accumulation of a lifetime of hard work, would not buy a postage stamp! Yet the bonds were not defaulted. He was ruined, not be- ‘cause the promise to pay was not ful- fille?, not because goods became scarce an therefore dear, not because his judment was bad, out because inflation vw — | Thrift-Is Often Punished Instead of Rewarded; Germany Cited.: depreciated the mark.in buying power almost to vero. . : In the city of Budapest.a benevolent womian founded a genteel poorhouse for victims of mw: |$125,000 Will Be ‘Expende :| on Constructing’Sea Wall to | dt Be 3 Feet Over Water. ) German When asked what labor most. needed he said,.“a more stable currency.” said the workmen had no way wth band when he got his wages, snatch —2— and run to .the r to .

Accordingly, when the wood pulp was sold, it was found that by the books, the mill which had burned down had made larger profits than any of those which had remained in tion. The truth was simple that they had lost al! around, but that the loss was less on the unmanufactured pulp than on the manufactured paper. They had failed to translate theif accounts into buying power; they had reckoned in terms of the crown as if it were fixed and stable, whereas it was unfixed and unstable. Yet, strangely enough, while infia- tion is going on, the general public finds it hard to admit that there can be too much money. Money, however abundant, always seéms scarce. Getting Rich by Debts. After a rapid inflation once starts. the clamor for more money often grows louder and louder. The most striking example of the money illusion in relation to. inflation may be found in Germany. The presi- dent of the Reichsbank, speaking before the Reichstag .n Aug.st 7, 1923, flatly states, “the note-issue at present amounts to 63,000,000,000,000,000; in a few days we shall be able to issue in one day, two thirds of the total cir- culation.” The strangest thing was the matter of course way in which this casual announcement was _ received. Here was inflation going on at terrific speed and ever accelerating. yet no one seemed to care how it would inevitably end.

Hugo Stinnes, the famous war-time milHonaire. of. .Ger- many, was an outstanding example. Sometimes the same people or families who profited by inflation got caught in the reverse tide of defjation, and were ruined. The Stinnes heirs were examples. How Thrift Is Punished. Even America had not escaped these evils. A wor'xingman who, in 1896, had put into a savings bank found, in,1920, that his principal, plus compound m⸗ terest at 44, per cent, amounted to about $300. On the face of it he had his principal back and in addition $200 of profit, or eccumulated interest. This $200 seemed n genuine reward of thrift. But it was an illusory profit4like the “profit” on the shirt sold by the woman in Germany, mentioned in the first chapter, or the “profit” of the paper mills 4n Austr¥a, just mentioned. The appearance of profit was due to a sort of bogus accounting in terms of varying dollar. . ; When our American depositor came to spend his $300 in 1920 he found prices nearly four times as high as they had peen\in 1896; consequently his en- tire accumulation of $300 would buy only. about three-quarters’ as much as his original’ $100 would buy in 1896. He would have come Off better if he had spent his $100 in 1896. If he had turned his $100 into iture, jewelry or some other representative commodity in 1896 and simply held that commodity until 1920, he would have had‘the use and benefit of it during all that period, to- gether with a big advantage over the man who saved; for this commodity would have “appreciated” about four- fold. As it was, his only reward of thtift was punishment. He had really lost, not only his interest, but also part of his principal. It can all be put in figures.” Hée de- posited $100 in 1896. In 1920, eaeh of these dollars was worth 26 2-3 Cente of the 1896 buying standard. He took out $300 in 1920, worth 300 x 26 2-3— $80 of the 1896 standard. In short, he put in $100 and took out the equivalent of 80 such dollars. Instead of having, as interest, something over and above his $100 of principal he had really lost of his original principal. Instead receiving s reward for his self- denial, the saver was heavily mulcted for his abstinence and forethought by our will-o’-the-wisp dollar. , 3 F ones. voted in the Howard, the British: round-robiners, Bora’ vrought out clarification report prefaced by thead — : “This ———— is made solely or the purpose of putting upon record what your* committee ‘understands to be the true in tion of the treaty and not in any sense for ths purpose or ing at low rates of interest. Had they tried this during’ the period between 1896 and 1920 they would have had their labor for their pains, much worry and no profit. At the end of that time they would have been poorer than at the beginning. Suppose Sage had started with $1,000,000 in 1896, investing it at 4% per cent interest, reinvesting year after year; he would’ have been in exactly the same situetion as the savings bank depositor, only on a larger scale. He would have had $3,000,000 in 1920 dol- lars; but this would be equivalent only to 8800,000 in 1896 dollars. In that period «ll £hrift or saving, by rich and poor alike, was not rewarded, but penalized. When Gold Bonds Are Gold Bricks. - Any gold bond bought in 1896 and running to 1920, or any intermediate date, proved to be a_ veritable gold brick, Yet, because of the money illu- sion, even to this day few know it. Yale University lost heavily during the no-interest period. Yale had recently to ask for a further endowment of $20,000,000, largely, as President Angell Said, because of the fall in the pur- chasing power of the dollar. About $7,000,000 of the new endowment was required to ‘restore the purchasing power of the income from the bonds. mortgages and notes held in 1914. Of course, the samé sort of losses were sustained by other endowed univer- sities, foundations;, hospitals and churches. ‘ae A business mdn who prided himself on his “safe” investments and. who was the manager of a $30.00,000 estate recently boas tha of his management cent. dollats haa th my because the ° shrunk t much during the period of his investment.

These three athletes just mentioned stood out prominently in the sport circles of the high schools during their careers and are now together at Maryland Univer- sity where they are finishing their freshman year. Nelson Colley, now at Emerson Insti- tute but formerly at Central, was al- ways classed by the writer as the‘ best all-around athiete in his time, in our high schools. Colley took part in three sports for Central, basket ball, baseball and track, but could easily have won a place on any of the foot- ball squads at Central while Ee was there. Colley’s Play Determining: Factor In Central’s Court Success. | His play itm last year’s basket ball series was clearly the determining fac- tor in bringing the title to the Mount Pleasant School. As a high hurdler and broad jumper in track and an in- fielder on the baseball nine, he ranked high among the athletes in the schools and seemed to ss such a wealth of natural ability that he excelled in any line of sport he took up. Filling the shoes of these athletes this year are Hunt, of Western; Lewis. of Business, and McCullough and Wood, of Eastern, among the most prominent Hunt was on the football team at West- ern, is a leading member of the court squad that upset Tech the other day. and a splendid shortstop on the base- ball nine. Lewis, too, is a three-sport man who is carrying on where May left off at Business. McCullough and Wood have an op- portunity this year to become the first athletes to win letters in the four major sports"in many a day. Both will have won letters in football and basketball at the close of the court | season; they seem reasonably sure of /capturing their baseball letters and | have a fine opportunity to gain them |} in track.

BEATEN BY AMERICAN Burgess Accounts for 25 Points; Final Score, 55-40. && RIGHT EYES” BURGESS, fresh- man ace of the American U. Five, alone was too much for the Baltimore VU. Quintet last night His mates helped him, however, so the Origtes took a sound lacing by a score of 55 to 40 on the Methodists’ floor. The Baltimoreans were pregame fa- vorites by reason of three victories scored previously over other Washington College Teams. itors seemed due to hang up No, 4, as they ran wild in the last ten minu- utes of the first session. After having trailed at one time by 15 points, they came with a rush to narrow Ameri- an’s lead to 24 to 23 at intermission. In the rest period the Orioles evi- dently cooled off, but Burgess “got hot,” as the rah-rah boys say, and therein lies the story. When his smoke cleared away “Bright Eyes” had in- creased American’s total by 20 points, and the decision was far beyond the reach of the Baltimoreans. Burgess Puts Dick Merriwell To Shame With Exhibition. Burgess put Dick Merriwell to abso- lute shame. His point total for the game was 25.

LTHOUGH Washington had more A entries in the South Atlantic tournament last year than Balti- more,’ tho Maryland city won four of the five championships. The Woodlo- thians, playing this season as the Washington Grays, were the only Dis- trict winners to survive the finals, win- ning the unlimited title. Before The Washington Post brought ti.e tournament games to Washington, District clubs had to Ls more or less con- tent to let Baltimore walk away with the chief honors and the A. A. U. gold medals. However, despite the fact that Washington teams have lost a majority of titles sir e the intercity finals were started two years ago, District man- avers, players and followers are not convinced that the brand of basket ball played in Baltimore is, superior to that played here. Team Entry Blanks Now Ready at The Post. Lack of tournament experience of lo- cal teams is blamed by most Washing- ton basket ball followers for Baltimore’s domination in the annual play-offs. Baltimore has staged the South Atlan- tic tourney for years, and the majority of its best teams are those which have worked their way up through the va- rious classes, Vashington not only expects to sur- pass the record set for entries last year, but can promise its Baltimore brothers tournament-wise teams. A checkup on those clubs which competed here last year shows that a majority will again en- ter. Many clubs have changed their names, but have not lost any of the ex- perience gained last year, and in some cases the previous year. Team entry blanks were received at The Washington Post Sports Depart- ment yesterday and are now available to all bona fide and amateur teams in the city. Many teams obtained the blanks last night. Members of The Post’s staff will assist managers in properly filling out the blanks. K. of C.

John ©. Wineman, of the Indian Spring Club, will motor to Plorida in a few days and will be followed by Charles H Pardoe and W. R. Winslow. Thereby hangs a story. Last winter, Wineman was playing on the course at Miami and was stand- ing on the green of a short hole. Pres- ently a ball came sailing from the tee and landed near him. Looking back, he saw a golfer laughing. “If I were at Indian Spring,” he re- marked to his companions, “I would say that ‘Pete’ Pardoe had driven into me and thought it was a good joke.” It was Pardoe, sure enough. Neither knew the other was in Florida. Town and Country Clab Has One of Few, Bunkers Across Course. The rearrangement of the tees on the ninth-hole Town and Country Club course so as to diversify the playing of the second round, fully deseribed in this column last. week, is all the more interesting bécause it reintroduces the ig cross bunker in front of the ee. Years ago, every course had a bunker across the couse which had to be car- ried on the drive. At a later period the golf architects abandoned the cross bunker and placed the traps on the sides of the fairways, putting a premium on direction rather than distance. The consequence is, that there is hardly a hole on any local course where the golfer on the tee is confronted by a bunker stretching across the fairway— the second hole on the Indian Spring course being @ notable exception. It will not take a long drive to the traps on the eleventh and fifteenth holes on the Town and Country Club course but, nevertheless, they will be a sort of mental hazard for many players: Beaver Dam Membership Nears 300 Mark; 350 Is Goal. Within the t week of two a con- siderable number of new membership applications have been actepted by the Beaver Dam Club, and the 300 mark w 1 soon be reached. A membership. of 350 is the goal for the present drive, and it is expected that this number will be on the rolls within the next month.

Charges of destroying private prop- erty and intoxication were dismissed against Harry Hall, colored, 45 years old, a chimney-sweep, of 1906 L street northwest, by Judge John P. McMahon yesterday in Police Court, The court decided a proposition made by Hall in his testimony was sound and substanh- tial ground for dismissing the charges. The chimney-sweep said he was re- tainéd to clean the ice from a roof and the chimney of a house at Nine- teenth and L streets northwest on Fri- day. He said he carried severa) bricks and rope in a gunmnysack on his back, wore a heavy overcoat and clumsy hip- boots when he climbed an icy fire escape four stories to the roof. “Now anybody that can climb a fire escape with all that stuff on his back just can’t be drunk, your honor,” Hall exclaimed. While he was at work on the roof, he said; some boys threw a heavy piece of ice at him, which missed its mark and crashed through the roof of a taxicab on the street below. Polite- men then arrested him, he said, and accused him of throwing a brick through the cab roof and being drunk, Pseudo Fire Officer Fleeces Business Men Complaint by Fire Chief George 8S.

The committee evidently stands ready to approve the merger resolution, but is blocked by the demand of Sen- ator Blaine (Republican), of Wiscon- sin, that an amendment be approved to provide that the merged company be revaluated on the prudent inyestment theory. The meeting Thursday was ordered after letters had been received by four opponents of the resolution as it is now _ written. These were William McK.

SIMON Coolidge Writes Congratulat- ing Rabbi on His Success in 25 Years’ Service Here. BISHOP FREEMAN LAUDS HIS AID TO COMMUNITY Rev. G.C.F. Bratenahi Speaks for Prelate, Who Is Ill in California. Civic leaders of the Disttict of Gol- umbia joined with the Washington Jewry last night in honoring Dr. Abram'|’ Simon, who has completed 25 years as rabbf of the Washington Hebrew Con- gregation, at a gala,celebration in the Mayfiower Hotel. & Some 600 persons were present. A large unseen audience, however, heard the many addresses in praise of Rabbi and Mrs. Simon through the medium of WMAL over which the program was’ broadcast. President Calvin Coolidge, unable’ to attend because of pressing business, extended his greetings to Dr. Simon in a letter addressed to him, but read by Levi H. bration committee. The letter read: President Coolidge’s Letter. “My Dear Dr. Simon: It is with great regret that I find myself unable to at- tend the dinner in celebration of your twenty-fifth anniversary of your spirit- ual leadership of Washington He- brew Congregation. Your active interest in all things pertaining to the welfare of this brought you not onply respect, but real affection. | “I congratulate you most cordiaily, and for the future years wish you health, happiness and success in your work. “Very truly yours, > “CALVIN. COOLIDGE.' The Right Rev. James E. Freeman, Bishop of Washington, was also sched- uled to make an address, but had to leave recently for California because of illness. — In his place, though, he sent. the Rev. G. C. F. Bratenahl, dean of the cathedral, to express his ésteem for the rabbi. In a letter directed to Joseph D. Kaufman, explaining .his unex : absence, Bishop Freeman declared: “Insularity of habit and practice has given place to the larger recognition of a minister’s responsibility to be the servant of the whole community. fe “In this aspect of his ministry Dr. Simon occupies a place of unusual dis- tinction, and those of us who have been associated with him have not only rejoiced in’ his fellowship but in his splendid: consecration to all that concerns the large and varied intergsts of the community. . “The clarity of his vision, the breadth of his charity,. coupled with his un- failing readiness to respond to any. call, have given him a place of honor in the religious communions of ey name,” the letter said. Senator Arthtir Capper, of ‘Kansas, chairman of the Senate District com- mittee; Dr. Frank A. Ballou, superin- tendent of the public schools; Prank J. Hogan, Dr. H. G. Enelow, president of the Central Conference of American Rabbis; Dr. Louis Wolsey, chancellor, Jewish Chautauqua Society; Maurice D. Rosenberg, vice president of the Union of Américan Hebrew Congregations, and Rabbi William F. Rosenblum swelled the sum total of praise heaped upon Dr. and Mrs. Simon. Praised for School Work.\ They review the past 25 years dur- ing which he has been rabbi at the Hebrew Congregation. They told of his work as president of the Board of Education, as president of the Co- lumbian Hospital, as treasurer and president of the Central Conference of the American Rabbis and of his other activities. “There is no one in Washington for whom there is more universal good wili than Dr. Simon.” Senator Capper said. “Whenever he has appeared be- fore the Senate District committee it has been in the interest of the com- munity and not for himself.” “Any credit for the success of the Washington public school system must be accorded Dr. Simon for guiding it through a stormy era into a period of peace,” Dr, Ballou said, adding that “Dr. Simon has found many opportu- nities to exhibit that tolerance and brotherhood that is so often lacking in public officials.” Hogan praised Rabb! Simo as a clear thinker, exceptional teacher, two- fisted fighter fog right and a propo- nent of peaceful settlement of difficult problems. .

Congress should deal with realities, and not with dreams. Let it do its duty in insuring the safety of Ameri- can life and property by providing war- ships capable of enforcing respect for the American flag, wherever it may fly on the high seas. — — — FARMERS AND THE TARIFF, The House ways and means committee is in the midst of its most. important: hearings for revision of the tariff sched- ule. ‘The farmers are having their turn before the committee, and the sessions of Friday and Saturday indicate that they are making the most of the oppor- tunity. The committee has resorted to night hearings and special sessions, and. has cut the allowance of time to the wit- nesses from ten to five minutes in an at- tempt to hear the hundreds who are pleading for higher duties. Agricultural ‘groups are relying im- plicitly on the campaign promises of farm relief made by the / Republican party. They are demanding relief through con- structive legislation in addition to more adequate protection through the tariff. The fact. that farm bankruptcies have increased more than 1,000 per cent dur- ing the past 20 years, while the percent- age of commercial failures refhains about the same, indicates how urgent the need 4s, In a recent address, Senator Brook- hart pointed out that. while there is only two-thirds as much capital invested in manufacturing in ‘the United States as in agriculture, and less than three-fourths as many factory workers as farm em- ployés, yet manufacturing products reach an annual value of $44,000,000,000 as compared with $12,000,000,000 for agri- culture. The situation demands | that agriculture be given a full hearing before | the tariff-making body, Demands for higher duties range up to 300 per cent. Producers of corn, wheat, live stock, poultry, fresh vegetables. fruits, sugar, and many other products have asked for additional protection. When the producers asked for a higher tariff on wheat that is rich in protein, the millers were on hand to demand pro- portionate boosting of the duty on flour. It*is obvious that if the demands of all are granted, the cost of living: in this country would be appreciably raised. Since nearly half the population is rural this would work disadvantage to the farmer as well as to every one else. It is | the agricultural population that is in need of assistance, and every tariff schedule on farm products that is rewritten should be designed to support that need, with- out increasing the cost of living. Where higher agricultural duties are ‘to be met with similar schedules that will allow manufacturers to increase food friceg to the public, the so-called protec- tion will return to plague the farm popu- lation and the public in general. The end in view should be not a general in- crease in-food prices, but a better return to the farmer for what he produces. This can not be accomplished through re- vision of the tariff alone. Congress needs facts from every source, and they should be facts, not propaganda from organizations seeking higher profits. AN UPRIGHT STATESMAN. Representative Howard, of Nebraska, has set a precedent which, if followed by all members, might seriously interfere with the output of the House. At the Friday session Mr. Howard rose to what he termed a “question of personal priv- ilege” and eloquently confessed. himself undeserving of honors that had been ac- corded by several of his fellow legisla- tors, in congrathliating him upon the au- thorship of a poem tkat had been publish- ed in the Congressional Record at his re- quest. He hastened to explain to the House that the verse, which proposed re- | union among the survivors of the armies of the Blue and the Gray, was written by tf |.a Mr. Carlisle, of Washington, and that through the accidental elimination of the ‘by-line in the printing office, credit was not given to the author. “The lines are ul,’ i Mr. Howard: “The sen- 4 I should like ever so did’ not intend to commit the hideous crime of plagiarism.” If every one of the 485 members of the House were to arise and apologize so eloquently, for every bit of anonymous genius that passes into the Record as original oratory, the time left for delib- eration on national problems might be seriously reduced. Howard is deserving of the applause he received. Such an example to Congress should ‘not fail to attract public atten- tion: Congress needs more statesmen like Representative Howard. ' pane no 4 ~ BINSTEIN’S NEW THEORY. -Prof.: Albert Einstein, formulator of the theory of relativity, has stirred up the widest scientific and lay. interest with his latest, and self-styled greatest, discovery, which is soon to be published. Inklings of the new theory have be- come public, leading to scientific com- | ment on what it may mean to the world. Prof. Hans Reichenbach, of the Univer- ‘sity of Berlin,» who was privileged to study the manuscript of the work, is the first'to discuss it.. According to the new theory, he says, there is only one sub- | stance, namely, “the field,” and only ‘one universal physical law. ‘The field con- tains electrical and: gravitational compo-' nents, all of which are linked ‘into a sin- gle formula.. Gravity and electricity are the basic forces that regulaté/ all .physi- cal phenomena. Gravitation rules all mechanical phenomena. In the relativity theory, Prof. Einstein identified the law of gravitation with ‘the universal charac- teristics of time and space, but. he did not bring. electricity within’ a general law controlling .all physical» phenomena. ‘Many scientists have been working on the problem of reconciling the laws of mechanics and electricity, but it has re- mained for Prof Einstein, in his latest work, to reveal a possible solution. In the new theory, the’tenets of gravita- tion are merged with the tenets of elec- ‘tricity, and both appear as a consequence of the universal law of “the' field.” The: theory ‘has not yet ‘been explored in all its ramifications, nor will: definite proof. of. its substantiality be. obtained until ‘numerous scientific —— have had conduct laborious ‘perim ments, “This, in J all probability, will take years. oat, says. Dr H.. H. Sheldon, head of the department of. physics. of New York University, the new theory can be veri- fied, a most fascinating field of experi- ment will have been opened up. Man- kind has learned how to harness and con- trol electricity, and if gravitation is sub- ject to similar laws there is reason to believe that man’: will learn to. control and utilize gravity. Electricity can be insulated. Possibly the force of gravity can be insulated, so that airplanes could be. aloft without: physical support and immense weights counteracted, enabling mankind, to break the bond that holds him to. the earth. Einstein’s theory of relativity has not lent itself to practical uses as yet, but the theory, about to be published may prove to be the most intensely practical gift that science Has “ever offered hu- manity. DR. TEMPLE’S ENTHRONEMENT. The enthronement of Dr. William Tem- ple as Archbishop of .York, which took place during the present month, serves to recall the antiquity of the northern English metropolitan see, for the new incumbent is ninetieth in succession from Paulinus, who was made first bishop of that diocese in the year 625. The impres- sive ceremonies of the other day differed in some few particulars from those cur- rent in the Middle Ages. For instance, Dr. Temple did not enter the city through Micklegate Bar. and ride on horseback over Ouse. Bridge to the precincts of the cathedral. Instead, he presented himself on foot at the west door of the sacred edifice, and thereon knocked with his pastoral staff as a signal that he asked for admittance. Further, he spoke his vows and took the oaths in English, not in Latin. The points of similarity, however, were still greater than those of difference. York is the only cathedral in England that has preserved its ancient constitu- tion unchanged. Hence all: the: petitions and-declarations used in the recent serv- ice were taken from the Minster records of the ‘fourteenth century. Even: the English translation of them dates back to the early part of the eighteenth century. ' York Cathedral is now, by common ard universally accepted usage, designated as York Minster, but it really never was a monastery or monasterium, as the word Minster might seem to imply. From this fact arises the curious ecclesiastical situ- ation that its dean and chapter are its trustees and guardians, and also the J — Nevertheless Mr. | : | trustees and guardians of the temporali- ties- and spiritualities. of the whole archiepiscopal see, and, further, that. the archbishop is not a member of the chapter and ‘takes no part in - its deliberations. Hence, before being’ installed by en- *thronement, Dr. ‘Temple, like his pred-=- ecessors, had’to.take an oath on the Saxon: | Gospels to. defend and preserve intact the rights and liberties of the dean and chapter. These Saxon Gospels are themselves of great antiquity. Together with the Horn of Ulphus and the site of the cathe- dral, they form. the only tangible pos- sessions which have come down to the dean and chapter from a period that antedates the Norman conquest. With so much that is ancient and ven- erable surrounding it, it is no wonder that Englishmen are proud of York Minster and the see of which it is phe apex and center. RAILROAD MERGERS. , Although the administration for some time has been advocating enactment of liberalized railroad merger legislation, it was not believed that immediate action toward this end was contemplated by Congress. ‘That a subcommittee of the Senate interstate commerce committee has prepared such legislation comes as somewhat of a surprise. Not only has the bill been prepared, but it wilh be reported to the full committee early in the week, and an effort will be made to get action upon it before adjournment. President-elect Hoover is said to favor the bill, but there can be no doubt that it will precipitate a bitter committee and floor fight. ‘ The new measure, it is understood, would permit railroads to acquire com- peting roads by direct stock purchase as well as to effect consolidations and operate combined properties under a new name. In addition the bill would enable the Interstate Commerce Commission to authorize’ sales and combinations in the event a majority of the stockholders should favor a consolidation. In the past numerous projected mergers of railroad properties have been blocked by minority groups of stockholders. Something should be done to make possible organization of the country’s raHroads into scientifically. conceived economic units. For years the Interstate Commerce Commission has been trying to force agreement in the Eastern terri- tory for the merger of existing trunk lines, but the executives have bickered and squabbled and are apparently no ‘nearer a solution today than they were when the roads were turned back at the end of the World War. Out in Cleveland the ambitious Van Sweringen brothers have tried on several occasions to form a trunk line, but the Interstate Commerce Commission ‘and groups of minority stockholders have’ foiled ¢ West: of the Mississippi’ reign in railroad ‘circles,. — ——— unrest and th debated vigorously if and when ‘the Bh bi a is brought. before the Senate: . and, stability of the railroads is so i be reason-to apply the majority rule. It. seems hardly possible, however; that the present session. The question de- serves and demands careful considera-. tion. J BUSINESS ARBIPRATION: * Civilized man took a long step forward when he learned to settle disputes before: a judicial tribunal rather than: by physi-: cal combat. But today a’ dispute’ ‘he- tween two persons becomes a combat of : words, or too often, of ‘money. “The man. who is able to hire the best attorneys. and carry his case through the greatest . clusion of his legal battle he often. finds heavy expense upon his: opponent; for and often entails so many delays. that all the litigants involved lose more’ than’ they gain. No class has been more “annoyed: at this state of affairs than. the business men. It is therefore quite reasonable that commercial groups should set them- selves the task of finding #+better avay out and that these groups should hit upon the principle of arbitration: The American Arbitration Association, which: convened in New York last week, an- nounced that more than 1,500 tribunals: of this kind have been established in as. ness men, former judges and experts in other lines serving as arbitrators. The conference adopted a plan for extension of the commercial arbitration ‘system business men the practical value of this method of settling their differences will. also be undertaken. stagnation of law suits in the average State court is a discouragement to busi- ness and entirely out of harmony . modern commercial methods.

Therefore, at parties and dinners and even in the afternoon the cocktail jacquette still are worn by our smart- est women although returning travelers say that they have been discarded in other fashion centers. In New York We are assured many of the leaders of the inner social circle wear these en- gaging little gown accessories at the opera and at practically every dinner. The early spring costumes which blossom every week here and will shine ‘Henty A.” Rost, President Everything is reduced! forth at summer résorts without the outer wrap with which they are worn in this climate show a decided prefer- ence for little jackets. Many of the silk dresses have extra jackets of silk or even transparent velvet and the chif- fon costumes have long or short coats of lace or chiffon. While the dresses for sports which will travel in the luggage of many s« Washington belle to the Southern re- sorte are without sleeves, they invari- ably have little coats of matching or contrasting material to be worn for teas or IJunché®ns on the club porch. Even the dresses of wash material such as lawn and gingham and calico, all of which homely materials will be recognized in the inner circles of fash- ion for Southern resort and summer wear, have coats to match. A new fancy of the designers is to have dresses of flowered organdie and other cotton fabrics with linen coats made of ma- terials repeat the same design and col- oring in the dress. Of course a coat is a real necessity for boudoir or lounging costume and the little Zouave-like jackets of velvet gO so well with the long straight slips of chiffon or the full satin trousers and heavy white silk blouses of the smart- est of these breakfast and boudoir tea | outfits. Flowers on Hats. In spite of simplicity and plainness of outline it is a noteworthy fact that the ly spring styles seen at the and teas betray a peculiarly harbingers of what is to come. One debutante had on at a luncheon with her plain tailored blue suit a draped blue turban of fine straw braid and with bands formed of tiny blue forget-me-nots which, by the way, were just the color of the youthful wearer’s eyes. The “aviator’s cap” of soft beige silk tricotine, which evidently is not to be @ passing fad at all, has been used as the motiff of the smartest of the spring hats, especially those designed to wear with coat suits No flier would be con- tent with the flange over one ear alone, but the woman of ion only has it tiest of these. a — — — — — — — — — — — — hats, even those — — — — — — — We are now in the midst of our Mid-Winter Sale!

The Suit Supplies the Re- frain of the Latest Spring Song. fashion has laid down for our dress deportment is that,.every wardrobe must again boast a sult, and that ir- respective of this ruling every ward- robe should also contain a long coat ensemble. The point is rather insisted upon that the suit and the long coat are not interchangeable in their mis- sion. The coat ensemble has more prestige because it admits of more formality. The costume suit, about which one hears more than seems 60 far consistent with its position, may prove a rival to tite coat, since the costume sult recognizes no restrictions when it comes to governing the length of the garment variously termed jacket or coat. There is both a masculine and femi- nine aspect in the town ensemble, the former running to tweeds and to co- vert cloth, while the latter take ad- vantage of the fabric fields in which women folk are permitted to roam. While one might expect that the most important section of the sult was that which is either jacket or coat, this is not always the case, skirts remaining, for all their brevity, full of interest, and decoration. Diagonally placed pleats and all manner of treatments which introduce fullness are sponsored. Hips are carefully fitted and sometimes yoked, which is consistent with the dress all silhouettes of consequence. Skirt# are designed to reveal their belts rather than hide them under Jumper or over blouse. This is, of course, in ference to the tuck-in blouse which n the opinion of many is one of the most interesting and important of the several revolutionary ideas of the spring dress campaign. ———————— 4 designed for wear with suite, had crowns studded with matching flowers about an inch in diameter made of chiffon and velvet. Even the bakou hats have their feminine touch. A becoming. one worn by a young matron at p tea last week was of tobacco brown bakou ‘with the entire crown covered with appliqued pansies in oyster and beige and brown. Flower Turbans Popular. In Washington, at least, the flower turban of the late summer has been a favorite all winter and some of the best dressed women like to wear them with, their fur coats. Many of the new spring hats are-made after this fashion in silk and velvet... © ma- terial, on which they are built, is light and crushable so thet they will pack well in the travelers’ trunks, but they are quite as popular for present day wear. Many of these flower tur- bans form the only bright color note with a black or dark blue or brown dress. At a recent musicale the flower turbans formed brilliant little dots of relief among the array of blue felt and velvet hats or those of beige and brown felt worn by the majority of the women present. Briny orange and green and blue and brilliant red pop- ples seemed to be favorite colors for these prespring hats. Since elaboration in head dress is a high note of the fashion hour the | closest bobbed-hair head may wear a bandeau across the back of a tiny garland of flowers from which are sus nded a row of tiny curls. Of course, long-haired woman and the one who is letting her hair grow has it arranged on the nape of ber neck and many wear for evening ¢ tiny artificial flower wreath holding it in place.

Jan. 26. » AY after day and week after week we go on telling you about. this and that couturier end the activ- ities of one house and another-—and it has occurred. to us .that perhaps sometimes. because daily contact has made us so familiar with them, we take for granted, that you understand the things we are talking about, when in feality you don't So today, just to help. you to under- stand what we and other fashion writ- ers are telling you about, we are going to tell you a little bit about what the haute couture is-and how it op- erates. Couturier (koo-too-ree-ay), of course, couture. (koo-toor). is the dressmaking industry as a whole—but the haute women who wear the clothes of the world best, whether they are made in America or those created by the famous houses of Europe. In fact, the Ameri- can woman, has set the pace for the world. In the matter of tailor-made clothes, and sport ones, too, she has taught the fashion arbiters of other nations many a lesson in art and com- fort. Many women who spend part of each year traveling in other lands observe and listen and then are apt to come back to the tailor or modiste she has been patronizing in this country for years to buy her wardrobe or have special gowns and suits de- signed to fit her particular needs. Dare’s W eekly Fashion Letter What Is a Couturier?.. is merely French for “dressmaker,” and THE WASHINGTON POST: y PO — couture or grand couture, is a much more ‘distinctive term. The’: haute couture is the group of rs who create fash- |. ions. not merely for their private cus- tomers but for the entire world, such as Lelong, Patou, Poiret, Lanvin and the like. ‘There are ‘about 60 such houses in Paris, of which perhaps 10 may be said to set the pace for the rest. Nearly al] these houses are named after an individual person, although they may actually be operated by a corporation In some cases, amusingly enough, the individual in,question is no longer with the same house, in which case the poor fashion critic must’ be very careful to distinguish between “M. So-and-So” and the “Maison So-and-So," or both may be very annoyed. The head of the house is in gome cases actually the designer of the gar- ments which bear his name; in other — — — —— has become a natural course of events but in the smaller communities as well. The American woman and ; i ls quick to discern fashion h whether they are flashed on the screen ina motion’ picture y, printed in the newspapers or wo by smartly women. - The well-tailored suits and dresses and coats our young business women wear set a high standard of dress for women of all pursuits all over the world. While the woman of wealth and leisure may have more clothes she is not apt to have a smarter or nicer suit or dréss than the one selected with care for daytime wear by the cases he directs the'activities of a group of “modellistes;” in yet other cases he is a business man purely. How the Designer Works. Some designers first sketch the els on paper. Others make them in miniature on a doli-sized dummy. Cer- tain,ones, who place first importance on line and sijhouette, make their initial modef on a living mannequin in mus- lin, whif®h serves as a pattern for the dress to follow, while perhaps the greater number do the work of actual creation with real materials on the manneyuin. Once approved, ‘this design is turned over to the workshop to be executed This workshop is an enormous affair and in the larger houses it is nothing unusual to find here 1,000 or 1,500 workers. Four times a year the designer or group of designers is expected to turn out a complete collection of from 50 to 300. models Original Models Expensive. {It is not exceptional for a gingle col- lection of one of the large houses to jicost in excess of $25,000, which is con- siderable when we realize that these models themselves are not sold. but are used only for display purposes. At the opening of a season this col- lection is displayed, always on living manhequins, first to’the press and to the American buyers; then to the Euro- SUNDAY. mod-/ ers for department stores _JAN NUARY — — — — pean buyers, and ‘uate. to the pri- vate clientele of the house. buyers and European | purchase models to be reproduced in greater or\less number by manufactur- a BI — ty shops and the like. The clients, of course, buy them for nC" own wardrobes. Saleswoman limporfgant. In addition to the workroomsa, there is portant group of indiv deuses” or saleswomen ‘in order to be successful, must have ‘diplomacy and tact, at least a certain amount of culture, shrewd abill in rvcading human nature, the k of selling. endless patience and a score of other qt@alities. Yet if their work is difficult we must not overlook the fact that, as in other business the suc- cessful saleswoman is paid far more than those responsible for the creation and making of the models. What we have told you is, to be sure. the barest of outlines, but if we find that it fae gor} et you we shall tell you more from time to time of the inside workings of the haute couture.

In the group of 22 paintings there are portraits, landscapes with figures and idealistic paintings that have in them something of the illustrative element.

It is not realized by the public that the Textile Museum at 2330 5S street is opened to the public by card whieh can be obtained by application at the office. of George H. Myers, 1508 Fif- teenth street. This museum contains some of the choicest textiles to be follnd and is considered one of the finest in thé country. There are rare Coptic tapestries, rugs from the Near and Far East, embroideries ancient and rare, and. all are shown in a manner at once artistic and unusual. It is one of the choice things in the city. New Coolidge, Portrait. Ercole Cartotto ha just completed a portrait. of President Coolidge which wil’ be exhibited in the Corcoran Gal- lery for two weeks, beginning Mor~.g,: It will be remembered that tne same artist painted a portrait of the Presi- dent a year or so ago which was excel- lent and which was also shown in, the Corcoran Gallery at that time. Ethel Frances Munday will have an exhibition of portraits in wax in color at the Corcoran Gallery beginning next Sunday and continuing until the 17th Miss Munday has revived this unique prt and has made many experiments in this medium, as very little was known medium for portraiture is capable of the most delicate modeling, and when used in color the most exquisite results are possible. Both the Water Color Club’s exhibi- tion and the sculptures of Malvina of the old portraiturists. Wax as a “Boats,” a water color by Roy Clark on exhibition at the Arts Club. Hoffman will.be held over through next Sunday and can then be seen. The Hoffman exhibition of sculptures has awakened much enthusiasm. Many have returned again and again to see the works and tO marvel at the power and versatility of the sculptor. It seems impossible that one artist should have modeled all the different works shown at the gallery, for there are large works and small jn &ll mediums and many different styles of expression. « The committee of the inaugural charity ball poster competition offers a posters advertising the ball.

It-is profound and original in its diagnosis of human nature, a its observations show imagination, beauty;. humor, and whimsicality. The philosopher who life than most persons, confesses that certain things are inexpiicable. ‘he it is completely understood, will make airplanes safe. the midst of the sailors of Tyre and Sidon were the wonder of the Jews. The way of smoothly and swiftly without any legs. The way of a man with a maid, which has been the chief subject of the poetry, drama, and prose fiction of the other. “Such is the way of the adultefous woman; she eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and saith, I have done, no wickedness.” It is wonderful that those whose be- havior is most evil are often troubled -by conscience. They view themselves and thejr actions with smug complacency, whereas the saints of God guffer from a continual sense of imperfection. Of course, having an ideal, measuring themselves by a standard, saints realize their de- ficiencies. I saw a play on the New York stage a little while ago in which an adulteress declared that she felt no re- morse sand no sense of guilt. seemed to think she .was saying some- thing original; but if she had been familiar with the Bible, she would have known that the rotters and wasters and the self-lovers have almost always felt just that way. The old philosopher also remarks that there are certain things which the earth can not endure. He pro- ceeds to specify. A fool when he is filled with meat, an empty head and a full stomach being to observers a combination intolerable. An odious woman when she is married: respect- ability and an assured socia! -position magnify her naturally offensive man- ner. A servant when he reigneth, and an handmaid that is heir to her mis- tress. Rudyard Kipling wrote a poem on this text, and Fannie Hurst has told us exactly how the experiment works out In Russia—no more attrac- tive today than it was centuries ago in Palestine. After having pointed out some of these people who smell the worst, the writer turns his attention to things that are more inspiring. This wise men learned lessons of immortal wisdom from lowly animals, even from ingects. There be four things which are little upon the earth, but they are exceeding wise The ants yet they pre summer, The conies are but a feeble folk, yet make their houses tn the rocks.

This woman told her to regard her salary hot as income, but as principal.

There is no modern novelist who paints with pen more striking pictures of home than Kathleen Norris. The domestic atmosphere she puts into her stories is most refreshing. So she brings to her attractive Little book “Home” the point of view of one who knows whereof she writes. Furthermore, Mrs. Norris gives a recipe, which, if followed closely. would mean the renaissance of the American home the most desired development in this country today. Mrs, Norris tells us of the American home of yesterday, and shows how it can be recaptured under modern condi- tions. As she truly says: “The building of a family remains the great adven- ture, the road that is always new. It is not for every man and woman to undertake it, it is a happiness, a ful- fillment not granted to-.all. But, ah, the glory and the beauty and the triumph of the dreaded fifties and six~- ties and seventies to the man and woman who begin them deeply estab- (E.

Dorsey, one of America’s leading psychologists, has written another: book. “Hows and Whys of Human Behaviow’ (Harper & Bros., New York, which throws new and val- uable light on the complexities of hu- man nature Realizing ‘how diverse his readers would prove to be, Mr. Dorsey used much of the vernacular and the argot of everyday living jn’ which to tell his truly scient', story. Purthermore, he made it en @ aining, a course which other’ writin, along similar lines could follow profitably Yet at no time does Dr. Dorsey—he is a Ph. D.—sacrifice the scientific point of view to make a popular holiday. His book is sound from the technicality and ready to the most stringent test of his brothers in that field+-the most fascinating of all—the story of the human mind and body. ‘ . Long ago a Greek sage remarked: “Know thyself. The proper study of mankind is man.” Pope repeated it a dozen centuries or so later, yet the truth in it is eternal. . Dr. Dorsey has written his book with an eye to producing a happier frame of mind generally in Nis ers. He be- lieves that happiness is the normal state of mdn, and, furthermore, that it is within the grasp of every one, rich and poor, young and old, if they will but have it so. He declares; “After all, life without happiness is abnurmal, slavish and pathologic. If we are not the heppiest people in the world, it is not the world’s fault. It is our own.” With that high ideal as his goal he skype sy to, show mankind how it can achieved. Many a disillusidned husband will Wish he had read the chapter "Why Do We Fall for Each Other” before he bound himself up in matrimonial chains, And the same wish will linger in the mind of the party of the second , as well. He finds the business of | réman alling in love ‘a complex one, as it is. He has a high opinion of love, and marriage, too. All his scientific inves-. t on has not altered his belief, so why should we despair? “The most wonderful thing in ‘s world is love,” writes Dr. Dorsey, “love of man for woman, love of woman for man; nothing else can be so lovable, nothing else can bé so perfect. No otner relationship can be so beautifully, normally, naturally and eternally comi- plete: It is, of all human. institutions thé most ancient and the most honor- able; it is the keystone of human fam- ilies, which are she pillars of all hu- man society.” The book abounds with references to our cortex, the outer lining of the brain, the great. central telephone ex- change of the body, and this is par- ticularly true of the chapter wherein Do You Sleep So Much?” Dr. Dorséy takes a bold step when he. attempts the answer to the univer- gal quéstion: ‘How Can We Be Happy Though Merried?” . > sets down as a general proposition that “no marriage can rum a happy course unless both partners. play the game honestly, lov- ingly, fearlessly and patiently. For marriage is a game. It is more than a partnership or a contract. or a promise; tt is a play in which human emotions must inévitably predominate,” There is a great temptation to give more —— from this book. This | pensation in the work of H, would a mistaken kindness, however. |For to get the full benefit of it one should fread it from cover to cover and then would find himself possessed of a fuller and in many ways adequate knowledge of “Hows and ys of Hu- man Behavior.” . Dr. Dorsey is to be congratulated over his successful an- swers to the questions raised in over 12,000 letters received since the publi- cation of his last book. E. E. P. ENGLAND HAS NEW HARDY IN FREEMAN English literature, which suffered a great loss in 1928 in the death of Thomas Hardy, can find some com- W. Free- man, a young English novelist, whose latest book, “Joseph and His Brethren” (Henry Holt & Co., New York), is dis- tinctly Hardyesque in genera] treat- ment and contains rich promise of greater works to come. Mr. Freeman, like Hardy and other great masters of fiction writing, does not content himself with sketchy out- lines of hig characters. He paints them into the canvas with meticulous care and infinite attention to detail. Im an age when speed appears to be the sumum bonum of humanity. the Sketchy type may at first glance seem to be the most satisfactory. In reality it ls not. For the characters one reads in «é book should live and move and have their being in one’s memory thereafter. This is the charm of Dickens, Thackr eray, Scott and all the elder brothers } tent with being a spidgr and doing the‘ of literature; theig dramatis personae can never be forgotten and we even | try to duplicate them in the personali- | ties of those we meet in our dally lives This feat can only be achieved by the Thus Joseph and his brethren re- main in our memories as men of brawn, toil and human to the last de- gree. They are men whose lives have been spent close to the soil and who have the homely point of view of those who have acquired all of their knowl- edge from the book of Dame Nature herself. Yet they can rise to heroic heights also when the land which is dear to them is seized by the alien woman who is brought among them through the foolishness of one of the brothers. Nor is humor lacking from the recital any more than it is from the daily lives of men and women who live simple, useful lives close to the beating heart of Mother Earth. .Something of the sturdy nature of the Suffolk folk, where Freeman has located his book, can be seen in the many sacrifices made to regain pos- session of the land which was so dear to them. There is an independence about these farmer folk of Suffolk which proves that they are neither serfs nor slaves nor earth-enslaved peasants. The earth is their friend and comrade—not their captor and ruler. This phase has been brought out in striking fashion by Free- man, After all is said, the farm is the subject of the book, the central theme as it were and the whole story centers around it. There are four life-like ro- mances told in the book, yet they too are made to fit within the m setting. No man or woman whg ever loved the smell of the good red earth, saw the dew on the grass and trees in the early morning like a shower of sparkling diamonds, whose heart has leaped :to the call of the lark high in the sky or the sweet clear note of the robin but will find solid pleasure and enjoyment in this book. And, furthermore, it is safe to predict that the 85,000 co contained in the first printing accord- ing to the announcement soon will be exhausted. A comprehensive preface to the book was written by R. H. Mottram, who ‘calle our attention to the undeniable fact that “it is with eternity, too, not merely with East Suffolk that the book deals, When Nance says ‘If Ted do take a glass too much, now and again, he ‘on't when we're married.

Speaking of England, J. A. Spender, the brilliant London journalist, has just brought out a volume, “America Today,” which treats this fair land rather more kindly than did Charles Dickens in the early part of the nineteenth century. Of course, Dickens was irritated by copyright pfrating of his immortal works, but Mr. Spender gazes on Amer- ica with the eyes of impartiality and interest and, therefore, is just. ‘An amazing interest is taken in the lives of the ancients just now.

This is another of the Modern Read- ers’ series in the publication of which the MacMillan Co. is doing such yeo- man service to the cause of good litera- ture. Classics, like wine, improve with age and to present them in a more .at- tractive and convenient dress is a. boon to the literary minded. The beautiful prose of John Ruskin grows better with the years. This particular volume deals with political economy and it is treated by a master. “Time and Tide” are a group of letters written by Ruskin to Thomas Dixon, a cork cutter of Sunderland, concern- ing the present and the future of the English workman. The six egsays ,whica comprise “Munera Pulveris” are’ also concerned with political economy. The author's perception of this subject was prophetic and sulted to the age in which he was writing. He held the theory .that the laboring man’s life need not be devoid of beauty or aspira- tion. How pleased he would be were it possible for him to see the attractive homes of American workmen today with their comforts and luxuries known only to the rich of his own generation. THE STORY OF ENGINEERING IN AMERICA. By Chelsea Fraser. (Thomas Y. Crowell Co., New York.) | On the verge of what promises to be an “engineering administration,” with the world’s most renow en- gineer at the helm of the ship of state, such a book as this is printed at a most opportune moment in recalling to us the feats of the engineers who bullt America. The term engineering has become all inclusive in the last few years and no longer means simply the civil or the mining engineer but has much wider ramification than that. The author has given a bird's-eye view of the entire engineering problem as it is Known today and ings. . me, I tell you, and I love him’ are not 7 as fi type in Suffolk or im Washing- ton, D.

IS THIS WILSON? Messages accredited to Woodrow Wilson receiyed by Mrs. C. A. Dawson, Scott. Introdiiction by Edward 8. Martin. (E. P. Dutton & Co., New York.) Interest in FB bay revelations was recently revived by the s Hou- dini messages. Therefore, this book will be eagerly read, but to the dis- cerning it does not. bear the hallmark of genuineness, style is very un-Wilsonesque, and the admirers of the literary abilities of the late Wilson will search in vain for the beautiful phraseology and exquisite diction which distinguished his § earthly writings. : It is hard to believe that passage into a higher sphere of existence would mean the reduction of the brilliant mind of Woodrow Wilson to the com- monplace. Yet that is what to have happened, according to Mrs. C, A. Dawson Scott, who is said to have been responsible for the commu- nications which she contended had been given to her by W. T. Stead. That such a book will able to Mr, Wilson's f y is hardly to be doubted. It is a won- der thet a reputable publisher would bring jt out without consultation with those nearest and dearest to Willison, who, naturally, might object to its publication. At times the style is prosy, and where was that element ever found in Wilson's earthly writings or conversations? . Such an incident makes one long for “medium. insurance” after depart from these morte] scenes. THE UNITED STATES IN 4 Maj. Gen.

HEINL— " § a part of the elaborate preparations to broadcast the inaugural, A a section in the joint resolution introduced, by Senator Arthur Capper, of Kansas, authorizes the telephone and radio broadcast- ing companies to extend overhead wires to points along the line of parade on Pennsylvania avenue, where microphones will be located and an- nouncers will des¢ribe the parade’s progress. Just as When Lindbergh arrived, there will also be announcérs in the top of the Capitol dome, on the Treasury roof, and at the White House in addition to those who will gesvribe the inauguration ceremonies on the east front of the Capitol. The broadcasting of events. will begin when President Coolidge and President-elect Hoover leave the White House for the Capitol. Their progress along Pennsylvania avente will be described and the micro- phones will be so located that the actua) cheering of the crowds may be heard. Doubtless loud speakers will be placed near the grand stands and en route to entertain the multitude waiting for the parade. * J >. > One question has not yet been settled afid that is whether or not the ceremonies attending the swearing in of the Vice President, which im- mediately precedes that of the President, will be broadcast. As yet this has never been done for the same reason probably that the Senate has ; never allowed a photograph to be taken of itself. © less @ person objected to the broadcasting last inauguration than Senator Charles Curtis, then serving on the inauguration committee,“who this yéar, as Vice President-elect, is to be the principal figure. Thera was nothing persona) in his objections four years ago, it was explained, the insurmountable objection being the Senate rules and precedents, which Mr. Curtis said he was bound to respect. The predictiog is ventured, however, due to the wonderful progress (hat has been made in broadcasting public events, that a way Will be found out of this difficulty and that the entire day's ceremonies will ba broadcast, not only for the benefit of listeners in the United States, but by means of short waves to those in other countries as well. ad — That things are still not what they should be on WRC’s wave, in,cér- tain outlying sections at least, is revealed in letters received by Bishop James E. Freeman from miembers of his invisible congregation, “Since the readjustment of the wave lengths and channels, in so far as WRC, our favorite station, is.concerned, we’ve passed through ai stages of a most unsatisfactory service, particularly from 35 p. m. to, say, 9 p. m.,” a listener from. Warrenton writes. “(Marked interruption from Cheerio Station, Toronto, Canada, daily about dusk with sevéral addi- tional stations ‘overlapping,’ while a constant high-pitched whistié ty ‘lever present, and while morning reception is al] that might be desjred, from 3 o’clock on, former good reception has become impossible and as a consequence the predominating feature, viz, ‘the 4 o'clock Sunday. services from the Cathedral of Mt.

Far be dt from us to suggest a censorship of the air, but if thé Radio Commission or the National Association of Broadcasters do not find a way of meeting such a Situation as this, Congréss undoubtedly will— and if Congress is forced. into taking up the censorship question, more than the medical stations are liable to get hit. Comparatively few women are heard to the best advantage over the radio, but in our opinion, this is not the case with Miss Amelia Harhart, first woman filer to span the Atlantic, who will make her second ap- pearance on the air méxt Thursday night over the WJZ network. Miss Barhart’s imptomptu speech over the radio the night she arrived in New York was one of the best we have heard any woman make,..gnd- the talk next Thursday night ought to be even bettér because she has’ had more time to prepare for it. - = s A question being askéd is whether O. P. Gascoigne, who. was the radio director of the Republican National Committee and close to Mr. Hoovet throughout the campaign, may not be considered as the mew radip comi- missionet if a hew man is to be appointed in the Eastern zone.. As the law now reads, a resident of the District is not eligible for ap- ‘pointment,; but there is some talk of amending this. tion with Station WCAP. There is no intention, at present, by. Keith’s, to pay their actors ad- ditional salary for broadcasting, according to Variety. "The standard Keith contract will not be amended, but a radio clausa added by rubber stamp where an act is deemed suitable for broadcast- ing,” the theatrical magazine goes on. “The theory adoptéd by Keith’s is that an act, by gniping popularity ont of town through thé radio without playing the town in person, will. when reaching town, draw as a radio name and increase its drawing ability and value to the theater and vaudeville.” —S : you about Cheerio 1 a year ago, and you began ‘getting letters saying I was 4 coarse, uncoyth fellow.

Reaching into the life of the humblest inhabitant of the humblest hamlet, the.automobile has created the thing we call *‘miotordom.”* So “vast is. its eptead that analyzing it bears elose kinship to an analysis.of the thing we call life. With‘ nearly 25,000,000 cars tn use, the two words become almost synonymous. Of the more concrete -manifestations of the automobile, one finds the car. itself, the traffic it has brought into being, and the highways the creation: of which. if has dictated. One can take stock of these, By doing so, one may faintly grasp the ever-mightier mean- jng of the motor car to the Nation that has pushed it to its mammoth develo ment. Its valuable contribution to the individual’s wider ho.izon, his greater satisfaction with life, his more virile health, his spititual ‘as well as his -ma- terial enrichment—these elusive and evanescent things become, more tangible in such a Case.

Enormous laboratéries, to which sdditions constantly are being made. and the finest:and most.delicate equipment available also are available to the engineering corps pursuing the perfect motor car. Qe Auto show time especially calls the Nation to a halt to pay tribute to the product of this monumental] research. to the men who have engaged in -it, and to those whose vision led them to Snance it. The new cars ere filled with the frult that grew in this vast gasden of gauges and gadgets, Justice Gemands a word of gratefu! praise. At this segson when, in seeing the new cars every one foresees for them a ter measure of usefulness to man- hd, a survey of the conditions that surround automotive use suggests it- self: What of ‘the traffic regulations under which these cars are driven? To those who_have followed the auto- mobDile’s legislative history .from the era in whieh it was looked upop as “the rich mans toy” until the present, there’ tis cause for satisfaction: They have. seen the mighty swéep ‘of the motor véhiele’ crash through the. last barrier Of prejudice, narrowness, and stupidly restrictive laws. Traffic legislation is not perfect ’.to- day. Par from it, and yet, there gre numerous hopeful signs. The .most hopeful is thatthe tide of public opin- ioh is definitely and unalterably against thosé conditions which limit the «phere of motor car usefulness. Scientific minds “are probing the mass of de- tail out of which will emerge the ideal traffic code.. Already,-the basis of uni- formity in regulation has been pre- pared. It has found an ever-widening degree of support as the individual car owrler makes it clear that he desires to. use hig car everywhere with a total absence of confusion that confounds safety. The past year has seen motordom grow more. articulate on this subject. The current. twelve-month is destined to see stil] further progress unless ‘prophe- cies go generally awry.

In this connection one comes upon one of the material evidences of the vast new wealth created by the motor car—the marvelous. enhance- ment of real estate values. Huge Dividends Paid. It has been estimated by conserva- tice economic authorities that the au- tomobile creates more than / $10,000,- 000,000 of new wealth annually. The cold figure is almost too vast for full comprehension.

Now they are on those that have nameplates. They hide the gaso- line tank at the rear, and in the front, they fill in the gap between the ex- tended sections of the springs. They “clean up the appearance, according bserver. — sory I remarked a few cars later in our critical study, “do not seem to cha much.” “Fond vaca in appearance, no doubt,” added The Observer. “As far as one can see on the outside, they do change very little. Inside, which is the side that really counts, engines are constantly being mdified, if only slightly. I like to think of the accelerator as a sort of X-ray through which we see just how the engine is being changed on the in- terior. Apply the accelerator on an old engine and then on a new one and you see, figuratively, that cons! bie ‘“3- vision has taken place. It Ws up, crystal clear, in the difference in per- formance.

ENGNEERS AREX TIRELESS Just as belance is the outstanding characteristic of the capable moter car operator, so that same element is found to mark in emphatic degree the safe ahd fundamentally harmonious auto- mobiles of the day. In making this int, I. J. Reuter, Olds executive, says hat a balanced car is one in which every desirable detail has been given its deserved attention so that style,.com- fort, ease of driving, safety, accessories and all features of engine performance are in balance and harmony with one another. Throughout the life of the. auto- motive industry there have been cycles of engineering development. Of course, the first e¢mphasis was placed in mak- ing @ car which would consistently run. This was followed by a universal de- sire for & which was stimulated by the early automobile: races. About twenty years agg after sturdy engines had been developed, there started a cycle of ornate style. Em- phasis was placed on bodies with all manner of brass and nick’ trimming. with consequent saving of transmission, clutch and engine. One of the most in examples of the way motorists are. finding new advantages in the’ latest equipment is noted in the case of hydrostatic’ gaso- line gauges. When the tank is filled, the sir pressure in the inverted cup and the gauge air line is at a maxi- mum, the gauge “full.” When the pressure is removed by the com- plete emptying of the tank, the gauge Tegisters “empty.” However, hydrostatic gauges are interconnected with the Vacwum system in order to replenish the air in the tybe to take care of atmospheric and other changes. Thus, every time the vacuum system changes its 0 tion, the hand. of the gasoline ga will drop back to the empty position for a second, Such gauges have become for many drivers @ cheek on the vacuum system. Balloon Tires Advantageous. Balloon tires have made for greater riding comfort, but they have been even more serviceable in the work of n. abolishing skidding. They also offer more traction In mud or snow, and they assist in stopping. closed car was designed to offer protection against inclement weather, and what it is doing is to provide more fresh air for motorists in cold Weather, In free weather the aver- age oper car is fully :curtained, while the closed car has at least the driver's window wide open and perhaps other windows are partly open if the heater is on.

These included braking ability, acceleration, s& , @river comfort, dolla? value, visibility, quietness and numerous others. Embodied in Modern Car. Today all these factors must be em- bodied in the modern car. The de-+ velopment by these cycles has resulted in automobiles which are balahced in all particulars. This balance and Increased value of the 1929 automobile is due to improve- ments in Car appearance and car per- formance. Both of these factors are the result of engineering and manu- facwuring skill’ plus manufacturing economies. Each of these three factors is the result of unremittant effort dy engineers and victories gained by them either in new refinements or manufac- turing economies being on to the consumer in the form of added value. The vital importance of car appear- ance has resulted in the development of the artist-engirieer. His work embraces the imaginative and the practical. The artist-engineer must sense the public's trend in automobile styles, interpret these trends into harmonious body lines and appointments, and, furthermore, regulate these liz~s so that they con~, form to the mechanical design of the gar and are practical from. a manufac turing standpoint. , The engineers who have improved car performance have worked on somewhat similar lines. They knew what features of car nee appeared most .de- sirab’- to the public and then sought to give proper balance and proportion to those features without sacrificing any other characteristics, New Methods Big Help. This work of creating a balanced au- tomobile has beén assisted by new and: modern methods of accurately —— and proving each » sw development.

For instance, there is the engine that utilizes only 5 per cent of the power—the heat that can be translated into work—of the gasoline. Obviously, there is room for vast im- provement here. To the engineer, at least, it is obvious. Right in the midst of a civilization that is immeasurably impressed with the power and economy of its present engines, one of the greatest scientific minds in the world declares: “We are on the eve of the greatest development of power production using the internal combustion engine.” And, just a few days ago, there was an intimation that not only the engine but the fuel it burns may be radically different within the next few years. It may even be in a solid form. Perfection is’ relative, and it is well that the engineer relates it to the future and not to the past. This Happy Simplicity. One evidence of the effort to make motoring a simpler proposition, that _ never has been recognized fully as such, _is the motor. meter that is fitted with disk of red and green.

Why Net Try a Test. ‘While many who have tried it have found the result somewhat discomfiting, checking up on the speedometer is not a difficult matter. It should be under- stood, however, that the test result probably will have a margin of error, because the equipment used probably will. be‘rather clumsy. With measured miles becoming more common in various parts of the coun- try, testing the odometer, or distance recording unit of the speedometer, is more simple and fairly accurate. The manner of making such a test is to stop at the line marking the beginning of the mile, and set the odometer at zero. At the other end of the mile stop again and make o careful reading of the device. Many motorists attempt to make the test on the fly. The re- sults necessarily are too inaccurate to be of value. A measured mile also helps in thé speed test. However, such a check can be made merely by using the odometer unit. A level road, a stop watch and = assistant to do the are ap- ; | hanging at 30m. h, the should be covered in two — utes. At 20 m. p. h., in three minutes.

Covers Must Be Chaste If one’s tire cover has on it the street address of the firm from which one bought his car, it will cost him $13.60 to drive through any of Phila- delphia’s parks. It's advertising and the city forbids it. The demand for unmarked tire cov- ers thus becomes official. Nontechnically Speaking. Two mechanica]) developments from the layman’s viewpoint: Some car owners are not yet quite clear on the difference between the thermostat and the thermostatically operated radiator shutter. The former, located between the engine and the radiator, holds the water in the engine until it reaches a proper operating temperature. In this fashion, it pro- tects the power plant from operating at too low a temperature. The thermo- statically operated shutter, however, protects the whole cooling . system. Covering the radiator, it permits throughout the system circulation of the warm solution, thus preventing freezing of the radiator. Among those who expect to profit hugely by the adoption of front-wheel drive are the body designers. When it comes, as it seems bound to, the car from the engine cowl to the spare tire will be a simple platform on which they can build with no thought of the complications created by the presence the same drivers the rest of us meet in our daily motoring. of mechanical elements such as Be peller shaft, universal joints, di ential and the like.

There are signs that n increasingly number are turn- ion. not without deep study, to the thought that the “lemma of viewed from the standpoint of the con- gestion it creates, eventually will bring more rigorous limitations or the street space set aside for leaving one’s car. In other words, they think a parking ban in the zone is worthy, at least, vf a trial. It is 8 touchy problem. Every au-| thority agrees on that. This fact, it is pointed out, is due to the motorist’s immediate thought being that a pro- posal to limit parking still more rigor- ously is a restriction upon his use of a car, “Is it?” asks the traffic authority. “is tion based somewhat upon a limited point of view?” he wants to know.

And the automo- bile’s ebility frequently to aid in ward-: ing off ailments of one sort or another is thoroughly agreed upon by many em- inent physicians. As pointed out by Dr. Edna B. Day- ton, writing in the New York Herald- Tribune, the daily automobile rides are very important, “for by this means all members of the family can have fresh alr and’ sunshine.” The strain of business, Dr. Dayton says, causes fatigue of the body which has Only @ limited time to be ocor- rected before the work of the next day must be done. The auto ride is advised for this., “Fortunately,” Dr. Dayton points out, “all members of the human family can profit by much the same surroundings.

Has Ambitious 1929 Plans Will Make Motoring in Capital as Free From Annoyance as Possible; Touring in Washington and Vicinity Will Be Better; Roads improved. A year of unusually happy outlook, @ year which promises to enable the car owner to realize more than ever the great potentialities of the most popu- lar modern method of individual trans- portation, mow lies before Washington motorists. So declares George E. Keneipp, man- of the District of Columbia divi- sion of the American Attomobile As- sociation, who envisions with the up- folding of the new year new opportuni- ties for organized motordom to make itself increasingly useful to the com- munity as a whole, “During the last year,” Mr. says, “it was the ambition of the trict of Columbia division of the Amer- ican Automobile Association to con- tribute as much as not only to the welfare of our members and of motordom generally, but also to be- an ever more important construc- ety factor in the whole community ife. “In that ambition we have reason to believe vy eo Se we ated at least rr successful. gins with PO oe om our Fope —— oe tee motor- —* it ope that we shall scale of accomplishment for the * welfare,” points out that the mo- ; Mr, beside o the welfare of the| 2”. Mr. Kenetpp says, “our aim is service to motorists. The ‘| advancement of motordom is our chief transmitted to the engine itself of ? moments of idling or. moder- speed will warm up the engine “= handicap, and itis oply logical to give ce (pas glare to adjust itself = motorist who handles his car —— at all times and who does not ask it to come across with all its re- concern. We desire, first of all, to motoring better, safer, more ef- ficient, and.as free as possible from all But, in addition to that, as we gece it, we have a broader obliga- tion, and at this time we wish to ex- press the hope that during 1929 we will be able to fulfill that obligation to the fullest possible extent.” In disgussing the outlook for local motordom during the coming year, Mr. Keneipp states it to be his belief that the comihg months hold much in store. “Touring about the Nations! . Cap- ital, for example, should be better this people who slam the doors when it isn’t necessary, who never think of scraping the mud off their feet when they step into the tonneau or who postpone add- ing a quart of oil just because they're going to have the crankcase drained out and refil'ed tomorrow. The matter of kindness to one's car igs even to those people who are ways tinkering with it. Watch some persons clean a spark plug. In order to get a good brace they will often put. one foot up on apron or fender. The tools are sprawled over the running board. When the job is half done, greasy fingers grope into the side pockets for a rag. By the time the car is treated to a little internal con- sideration it has been permanently damaged externally. The reverse is true when the owner keeps the springs clean and dry, think- he is doing hig car a great favor: the while he is making it labor under the handicap of dry spring leaves. The way some owners wash their cars reminds one of washing the dog by drowning it, The washing job is nye tee sO vigorous that the paint is chipped off and the ignition wires This sort of thing is kind- ness of a kind, but not the kind for those who want to get the most out of their cars over the entire span of their ownership, When the car doesn’t seem to want to respond in the customary way, the wise owner does not force it, but consid- erately pauses to see what's wrong. Perhaps he has forgottep something Perhaps it only needs lping hand. | work which is of interest to motordom, jand to the remainder of the commu- : were closed to the motorist now have been thrown to him and are to be found elong ribbons of broad, smooth highway. : “While the problem of congestion on the roads around Washingto still is a difficult one, and one which will pot be’ solved this year, nevertheless roads themselves are much im- proved. ss A phase of the District division's : nity as well, is that “involved In the establishment and meinterance of the ress of motordom, in all respects, in- sures in ah important measure the progress of the entire group. [It is from this: broad viewpoint that we in- tend to continue to work, believing it to be fundamentally correct and sound, and. productive of the greatest and most lasting — “When the District of Columbia di- vision looks back upon the results achieved in so many constructive di- rections during the year 1928, and when we view the possibilities which are be- fore use in 1929, we can not help but enter the new year with a vigorous optimism on our side. The old year saw all our organization records shat- tered, and brought local motordom to a new plane of influence That with thie background we have .he makings in 1929 of still further impressive ac- complishments is readily apparent. r plens for 1929 recognize ‘these enhanced opportunities, end provide for them. Materializing, as we are confident they will in abundant meas- ure, the year now begun will become the most noteworthy itn the history of Washington as a center of motor- ing interest.” Motoring and Flying Seen as Dovetailing The conviction is held by qualified observers that the automobile and the airplane in the future will progress hand in hand, complementing each other in the services rendered. As a matter of fact, the — indus- try already has a deep practi interest in aviation since numbers of its impor- tant makers are making either en- gines, parts, or entire machines. That automobile shows of the fu- ture will. become joint “automobile and airplane exhibits” is the thought in many quarters. High Air Pressure Covers Much Mileage At the other extreme from the motor- ist who thinks one can not have too little air in a balloon tire is the car owner who is afraid that if he gets a pound or five pounds too much the tire is likely to blow up in his face. As @ matter of fact, many of these instances of phenomenal mileage from balloons about which one hears are due to the simple fact that they nor- mally carried more-than the specified pressure.

The Packard cars in each line are fundamentally alike in engineering design, in quality of mate- rials and craftsmanship, in the characteristic beauty of their body lines. Packard has but one standard. The models in the three lines differ in size, in detailed refinements of body embel- lishment and in the degree of individuality avail- able to the purchaser in color, upholstery and body styles. Today there is a Packard Eight suited to the requirements of every man or woman who seeks more than mere transporta- tion in a motor car. The Packard Standard Eight The new Packard Standard Eight is a powerful, fast and luxurious car, built on two popular chassis lengths—126 inches and 133 inches.

The two last named, recently introduced, are constructed upon the 180-inch chassis. The six models include four-passen- ger coupe, five-passenger eedan, two- door sedan, two-passenger cabriolet, seven-passenger phaeton, five-passen- ger phaeton and two- enger sport- ster. In addition, the cabriolet is ob- tainable without the rumble seat. La Salle. La Salle’s line includes eleven Fisher and two Fleetwood bodies on a wheel- base of 134 inches on all except three open models, which are 125 inches. “Syncro-mesh” silent-shift transmis- sion is employed on all models, whose eulpment includes ‘front and rear bumpers, dash type heat indicator, Lovejoy hydraulic shock absorbers, thermostatically controlled radiator shutters, chromiumeplating on exterior nickel parte and tandem wind- shield cleaner. All the cars of the line are powered by a V-type eight-cylinder engine of 328-cubic inch displacement. Among the regular equipment of the various models are electric fuel gauge on dash, eight-day clock, light control on steering wheel hub, side cowl ventilators, adjustible foot rail, vanity set, smoking set with cigar lighter, dome light, quarter lights and wood wheels. ——— — Lincoln. While no new models have been | brought out by Lincoln, two bodies are added to the line, and all cars are mounted on a new chassis. One of the new bodies is a town sedan, de- signed by Willoughby, and the other a berline, by Judkins. Other Lincolns on display are a sport phaeton, a four- passenger coup? and a limousi.e. Improvement has been made in the braking system, now fully inclesed, and internal expanding on front and rear wheels. An independent emergency and parking brake is also inclosed in the rear wheel drum, thus giving siz independent inclc~>d braking surfaces. The outline of the radiator shell has been slightly altered, tending to con- ceal the edge of the hood. It now has the appearance of being narrower and deeper, although:the radiator core has not been increased in size. Steel spoke wheels, with drop center rims, appear on the new types. New rubber engine mountings for the rear motor support will also be standard equipment on all new cars. ee Jordan. Jordan is presenting two new lines of cars in a variety of color combina- tions and body types. Both new sixes and eights are larger, roomier and more powerful.

AUTOISTS LARGE FACTOR IN FINANCING PROGRAM Public Still Demanding New and Better Arteries, As It Did Years Ago. } With automobile production at record levels, induced by an unparalleled pub- lic Interest in motoring and touring, the Righway construction program of the United States during 1928 made a strong effort to p pace with the con- stantly more insistent demand for greater and better road mileage. Surfaced highways totaling 50,000 miles were added to the amount avail- able to motorists during the last year. country today has 630,000 miles of roead with some sort of surfacing mate- Trial and another 500,000 miles of road which have been graded and drained. A mately one-sixth of the total 3,000,000 miles of road in the United | States is open for service by automobile J a owners. These facts are emphasized by Roy D. Chapin, chairman of the highways com- mittee of the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce, who says that while our mileage of passable roads is four times the railroad mileage of the country, yet the demand for new high- way improvement seems as urgent today as it was a decade ago. Highway Development Rapid. “Perhaps the most femarkable phase of highway development has been the Key — ow rapidity of ite growth within the past nine years,” Mr. Chapin points out. “In leas than a decade the public has voted virtually $10,000,000,000 to the construc- tion atid maintenance of roads, or enough to defray our cost of the World War, excluding foreign loans. “This sum has been used to almost double the 387,000 miles which were re- ported as improved at the close of 1921 as well as to provide for the mainte-. nance of roads already in service. “There has never been a public works improvement in the world’s history which has even remotely appfoached this expenditure of public funds, yet it is a striking tribute to the integrity of ‘our engineers that the task has been accomplished almost without a whisper of scandal attached to even the smallest part of it. Autoists Pay Large Part. “Another notable feature of the im- provement has been the comparative ease with which it has been financed. Normally an operation of this magni- tude might be expected to result ina severe dislocation of related industries amd money markets. However, by a gradual introduction of reasonable taxes imposed upon motor vehicle users, the payments from this source have grown until today the user pays one-third of in direct gasoline and license addition to the usual general ch he pays in common with taxpayers. . : “During this process the general pub- lic has continued to devote 1] cents of itg tax dollar to highway purposes with thé net result that the road pr has been markedly expedited. Mean- while the offset of lowered transporta- tion costs and increased realty valua- tions have acted together to make the whole operation one which has netted actual returns instead of added costs to the payers. Expenditures Still Increasing. “That these facts have won general the taxes, taxes other is im the direction of increased ex- tures in order that the work may be completed as rapidly as possible. “During the past year, four States— Louisiana, Iowa, West Virginia and Mis- sduri—voted a total of $240,000,000 in highway bond issues to facilitate com- pletion of their main State systems while ‘similar projects. are now under discussion in a number of other States. “There is an urgent demand for in- creased funds for road improvement in the public land States as reflected by bills mow before Congress, while many proposals have been submitted for in- creased funds for improvements of rural roads. must be increased if even the present level of appropriations is to be main- tained, since surplus funds of past years have been exhausted. There is every evidence of a wide public’ sup- . for generous increases not solely te bulid miles of road, but because of greet influence exerted by the Bu- reau of Public Roads in bringing road standards to higher levels. Texas Has Most Mileage. “Many interesting side lights are con- tained in the records of the Bureau of Public Roads bearing upon roads. , for example, ts shown a5 the State with the largest mileage of the Lone Star Commonwealth having 188,000 miles of roads within ite borders. “New York has more high-type high- ways than eny other State, with 11,000 of hard-s roads.

The most important improvements include a transmission of four forward speeds with two silent gears, vacuum booster and brake installation that gives quicker deceleration, a new gaso- terior metal parts and the “Noback,” a device that automiatically prevents backward motion of the car except when the gears are in reverse position. Safety features, besides the “Noback” braking device, include the use of non- shatterfng glass, of triplex make, in the windshields, doors and windows of all models and the adoption of Ryan- lites, which are said to throw a strong beam down the highway without blind- ing the approaching driver. Wallys-K night. Two new lines of Willys-Knight cars are introduced at the show, They are featured by greater power, more room and “finger-tip” control. The Willys-Knight Six includes four- door sedan, coach, coupe, roadster and touring car. The Great Six line in- cludes sedan, six-passenger coupe and roadster. The smaller Six line is powered with a six-cylinder sleeve-valve engine of 53 horsepower, with a bore and stroke of.2 15-16 by 4% inches. The new models are less in weight than their predecessors, with rear axle gear ratio reduced from 5.1% to 4.8, The 1%+inch propeller shaft has been lengthened to accommodate the wheelbase of 1121, inches. : Ali models of the Six are equipped with large mechanical type four-wheel brakes, 12 inches all around, as well as with “finger-tip” control, now univer- sally used on Willys-Overland products, A button in the center of the steering post controls all functions of starting the motor, manipulating the lights and sounding .the horn without changing driving position. - The Greater Six is new throughout, although retaining the basic character- istics of the former Greater Six.

Chassis is equipped with one- shot lubricating system, Whippet. » The Whippet fours and sixes recently introduced are speedier, longer and roomier than hitherto, though the fun- damental principles of original Whip- pet construction and mechanism are retained. Various refinements have been fcor- porated in the Whippet four engine. Stroke has been increased three- by eighth inch and the compression ratio has also been increased, g it down to 18.6 per cent. New and larger intake valve also add power and torque to“the motor. | While the average maximum horse- power of the former Whippet engine was 33, the improved engine in the new car has an average maximum horse- power of 40. No material change has been made in the Whippet six engine ather than to increase the compression ratio which increases the horsepower to 50. Steering mechanism has been com- pletely redesigned. ‘“Pinger-tip” con- trol is employed, enabling the driver to start the motor, operate the light- ing system and sound the horn by manipulation of a button on the steer- ing wheel. All cars have mechanical four-wheel brakes. Reports of the Department of Com- merce reveal that everywhere through- out the world extensive road-building | programs ere in effect. : — — For years, he had thought of HUPMOBILE as a MAN’S car. Good looking, yes. But its specialty was mileage. Swifter, sweeter mile- age. Tireless and endless motor car efficiency ... That was his idea of a HUPMOBILE. A carto accept every challenge of the road, for power, for speed and for endurance, without turning a hair. A car with the loins and sinews and heart of a champion. A MAN’S car. But along came HUPMOBILE with two new cars. The Century Six and the Century Eight. HUPMOBILE mettle was blended with a new-day mode. Stamina was clothed with style. The Viking became a fafhion plate. And his car became HER car, too, Both sides of the family now voted as'one, in motor car preference. N. B.... His car ... for its deeds. Her car... for its dash. That dis- closes the reason why these New Hupmobile Century cars’have won a popular landslide.

The last half, he shows, brought about a firm reversal of the opening trend, with the result that 1928 ended with the industry in a generally strong position.

The price of crude rubber has remained quite stable since last spring, and both manufacturers and consumers are ben- efiting thereby.

Cooperation Established. “*While the rubber association con- tinues its effective statistical and con- structive work for the rubber industry. the newly organized institute is furnish- ing an instrumentality through which the manufacturers may cooperate with one another and with the Government in solving the problems of distribu- tion and merchandising, with a view to the elimination of wastes and of de- structive methods, and to the stabiliza- tion of merchandising on a basis to afford an-opportunity for the efficient independent manufacturer to do busi- ness at @ profit, to the advantage of his customers and his steckholcers.’ “Just as profits in the tire industry were assured in 1927 by the stable price of rubber, so were they disturbed in 1928 by thé Grop of close to 50 per cent in the 6 ns because of the announce- ment the abandonment of the Brit- ish -crude rubher export restriction During- 1927 the price of rubber in New York ranged from a low of 33 cents a pound in September to a high of 41% in March, with 41 cents being registered at the close of the year. “Last year opened with rubber sell- ing in ihe heighborhood of 41 cents, but when on February 9 Premier Bald- win announced the committee on re- search had been asked to determine the effects of the Stevenson act in restrtct- ing rubber exports and to decide whether the restriction should be con- tinued, modified or removed, a reaction in prices immediately set in. By the end of February rubber was quoted at 294 ‘cents, and when, on April 4, Pre- mier Baldwin decided to withdraw the restrictions the following fall, rubber took a more decided drop uptil the end of the year the market fluctuated be- tween 17 cents and 20 cents, with De- cember prices being about 16 cents. Millions Lost by Cut. “When it is understood that with each drop of 10 cents in the market price of rubber, the industry takes a loss of more than $10,000,000 in inven- tory value, the position of the tire manufacturers following the decline from 41 cents to 17 cents will be appre- ciated. “During its life, the Stevenson act. made effective November 1, 1922, and Gesigned to restrict exportation of rub- ber m British Malaya and Ceylon so that prices could be stabilized between 30 and 36 cents a pound, seriously dis- turbed the American manufacturers only during a portion of one year. “That was in 1925, when rubber prices went soaring to a momentary peak of $1.21 a pound and tire prices reached the highest level in years. A rapid price decline followed and played havoc with the tire businéss. * As offered in their 1929 forms, tainty of the rubber market, brought about. by 1925 developments. resulted ‘In the formation of a rubber pool of American tire and automobile manu- facturers, which acquired considerable rubber only to suffer severe losses through the decline in prices during the last two years. “In their efforts to regulate prices AUTOMOBILE SHOW rete Five chassis—sixes and — gy we r $885 to OUR =~ — — through’-restriction of exports from their Far East possessions, the British not only failed to stabilize the world’s @rices for this commodity, but they lost the dominating leadership in the rub- ber-growing business. When the Stev- enson act went into effect in 1922 the British colonies had within their boun- daries 65.7 per cent of the total a Ze — — — — — — — — planted in rubber in the I ‘idle East, whereas at the end of 1927 the British share had dwindled to 566 per cent. Dutch holdings took up the slack in the British cevelopment. “Profits in the tire business hinge largely on the stability of the rubber market. With the lifting of restrictions, it is expected prices will not fluctuate over the wide ranges they have during the last six years, and the tire makers are therefore in a cheerful frame of mind regarding future opérations. “While tire manufacturers have taken enormous losses because of the drop in rubber prices, the American au- tomobile owner and tire buyer has ben- efited as he has in the purchase of no other essential commodity. Two price reductions during the last year brought the cost of tires down to the lowest point in the: history of automobiling, and with the lower cost the car owner has also been receiving a tire that in quality and mileage capabilities is many times superior to that purchased tén years ago. Mileage Cost Reduced. “A promin@nt New England manu- facturer recghtly produced some sta- tistics that throw an interesting light on the advantages the tire buyer of today has over the motorist of the past. This man —— out that. the dealers’ list price on’ the average take in 1913 was $29 and “the tire was anteéd only for 3,500 miles; in 1917 the price was $23.20 and the guaranteed mileage 5,000; in 1022 the price was $19.20 and the guarantee 8,000 miles; in 1927 the average pricé was $13.50 and the average tire returned 12,000 miles, while in 1928 the average tire cost about $11.50 and could be éxpected to give about 18,000 miles. On this basis the cost per tire mile to the car owner is today onée-twelfth the cost per mille in 1913. “It is this 16w unit cost that has made it a difficult proposition for the average dealer to operate at a profit. He must sell about 60 per cent more tires today than he had to a few years — to make the same gross income. th tires rendering a greater mileage, it naturally follows that replacement gales are fewer. As a result, the dealer who formerly specialized in the sale of tires is now turning to other avenues af revenue in the way of serviceing the automobile owner. Record Made for Sales. “Retail sales of tires were greater than ever before in 1928, the dealers passing on about 50,000,000 tires, com-~- pared with 45,000,000 in 1927, but profi- table operations, gauged by returns in other fields of merchandising, were comparatively few.

Since e introduction of the balloon tire in 1926, tire men have been confounded with a wide range of tire sizes. The situation became such that a dealer, in order to be equi to handle the requirements of all pros- pective customers, would be called upon to stock close to 200 different sizes and of tires. nger cars of 1928 models were equipped with 24 different sizes of bail- loon tires, but h the cooperation of the National Au obile Chamber of Commerce, the Rubber Association of America, the Wheel and Rim. Associa- tion of America and the Society of Au- tomotive Engineers, a schedule was set up last spring calling for the use of 18} standard sizes of 1929 cars. During the last half of the year atiother size was added to the list, but industry looks forward to the simplification of | sizes, not only benefiting the car owner but cutting down the production costs of the manufacturer and the capital in- vegtment ees cepa of the tire dealer. wis Shipments Worth "$850,000,000 “Shipments of all types: of ‘tires, tire repair materials and ‘suhdries during 1928 had a wholesale value of $850,- 000,000, based on statistics provided by the Rubber Association of America, and estimating the returns for thé last quarter. “Of the sales made by the tire in- dtistry last year, close to 80 per cent represented pneumatic tires for pas- senger cars and trucks.

THE WASHINGTON _POST: SUNDAY, JANUARY - 2t.. 19290. FOR THE FIRST TIME. in Motor Cars—A Deliberate Design Using the Centuries-Old Canons of True Charm — and Lovelines. Chrysler's unerring success in develop- ing, year after year, beauty and style which lead the motor car industry, may be credited to the very individual and acaign.

These canons of ancient classicart were catefully feranslated into terms of motor car beauty and utility. ‘They were applied to the most modern vehicle that travels the earth. The: results were hailed as master- pieces of dynamic symmetry—an ex- pression as new to the industry as the Chryslers themselves. The accompany- ing illustrations make clear the origins of some of the details of the very latest Chrysler style — the style that re-styles all motor cars. They show very definitely the workings of a plan, the like of which can be found nowhere else in the industry. It is everywhere conceded that Chry- sler style and beauty are today more striking than ever. The deliberate and conscious plan which gave them birth assured then and there the greater grace, charm and artistry in Chry- sler cars. k& New Chrysler “65° —Six body styles priced from $1040 to $1145 » + » New Chrysler “75” —Nine body styles priced from $1535 to $2345 + + + New Chrysler Imperial _—Feve custom styles priced from $2675 to $3475.

There is a decided similarity between the adult buying a motor car today and the child who, unable to decide upon what he wanted for Christmas, asked for a toy store. There were too Many toys for the child to make a @eciston. ere are sO many car ‘models, all fairly close to the ultimate in beauty and utility, that the buyer faces a dilemma in making the right Geeision.

The past year has wit- nessed what amounts to a revolution in the shock-absorber field. Design- ers cut loose with a deluge of radical! improventents both In the quality of | the product and the cost of its fabrica- ition. The effect was instantaneous, aided by the car makers’ recognition of the @ssential appeal of an easy riding automobile. While there has been no increase in wheel base, greater Body stature has been achieved by widening the rear tread of the car in many instances. The most intelligent use has been made of this dimensional increase in that it has been put to widening of rear seats. It no longer is necessary to put weight or wing-spread restrictions upon the passengers in order to make the five- passenger model carry five persons with comfort While fitting the form of the pas- sen necessarily evekes a variation in idea, slight changes in seat angles have doné well by comfort. Front-Seat Ad justability. The adjustability feature of seats no longer belongs to those cars which cater to the patronage blessed with bulgy bank accounts. Down where the Erskines, the Hud- sons, the Willys-Knights and similar products bloom, as well as up where the Lincolns and the Locomobiles speak ,with low, cultured tones, there ig precisely the right amount of room for the big man or the small woman. In some instances the whole front seat is adjustable to three positions. In others merely the drfver’s side of it may be moved backward or forward to accommodate the specific stature of the individual whose hands rest on the steering wheel. No one could discuss the comfort of the newer cars and do it justice with- out making detailed mention of the revolutions that have taken place in the controls. Steering, brakes, lights, gear-shift, clutch, starter—none of them have eacaped the good genii of the ieboratory in their effort to make the car easier and safer to handle. One interesting manifestation, many, of this character is that found in the Willys products. In these cars the feature that causes the great- est pride is the “finger-tip” ¢éontrol which involves a single button that, with different movements, operates lights, starter and horn. Dodge has joined Essex and Auburn in locating the starter button on the dash. Gift From the Speedways, In other instances, among them Pon- tiac, the dimmer switch for the lights has been placed on the toe-board be- tween clutch and brake pedals, where it may be foot-operated. All through the list the narrow- rimmed ateering wheel has been adopt- This feature is one of the few design in recent years.

Peda] pressures have been reduced still tained by those y marching along with it would seem fully to justify its acoslieration in the opinion of many engineering observers. Hydraulic Brake Systems. With regard to the hydraulic brake systems, the chief progressive step comes in the form of the adoption of the automatic compensating cylinder _| which keeps the liquid in thg lines ade- quate at all times without any assist- ance on the part of the car owner. This feature, for instance, has been in- from the car owner, a responsibility that he never wore with any commendable de- gree Of success. . The difference of opinion with regard ‘to molded and woven brake linings continues to show itself. Many main- tain that the meduction in pedal pres- sures justifies the use of this type of brake lining. Others take quite the opposite view. Both have evidence in support of their arguments so the mat- ter becomes one that time will have to adjust. Another spot in which the ball or roller bearing is being found on an increasing scale is in the transmission Where it makes the task of shifting gears less of an energy consumer. With Tespect to the lever that shifta the gears, there is a genera] effort to move it to a spot where it will interfere less with ingress and egress to the front seat, Nash's gesture in this direction which tocates the lever on the clutch cover plate instead of over the gear set is interesting. How Cars Are Unshimmied. If no story of the comfort of the later cars would be complete without mention of the controls, it likewise would be deficient unless it mentioned those changes which have eliminated shimmy in many cases and diminished its annoying effects in others. Here is something that has been tackled on a wholesale scale in the laboratories.

High Compression Gains. ed. gifts of the speedway to passenger-car | I“ braking action at various times offered P The brake situation—and brakes al- | (few surface differences. But, it is dif- ferent in many respects. Most significantly this difference takes the form of still greater power. There are few cars that do not develop a vigor of output that surpasses that of last year. One of the most impres- sive aspects of the composite power- lant of the year is that it represents he full fruition of the promise of high compression. The average ratio shows very close to-S to 1 with ell manmufac- turers having made the bearing and shaft changes essential for this type of engine. Cylinder Number Changes. There are fewer Jumps from sixes to eights this year, but the expaniation lies in the fact that there were fewer likely to do so who had not already made the leap. The most interesting additon of cyinders, in many respects, was that of Chevrolet, which appeared in November as a six after many long and prosperous years in the four-cyl- inder class. Crowding that change in interest, however, was that PierceeArrow, 50 long a six that it begen to look like a perennial, finally made the change to a straight-eight. Both of its six- cylinder engines have been supplanted. Studebaker’s Commander also has been trasmuted into an eight, although it still is available in the six-cylinder version by those who desire it. — Stutz made an interesting move in this connection in the entrance of its new line, the Blackhawk, v‘ich is ob- tainable either as a six or an eight— and with no price differential. These cars, incidentally, embody an auto- matic brake that prevents them jrom moving backward except when” the gears are in reverse. While it is not yet ready, Marmon announces that.it will have 4a ans eight in the . The new car *F called the Roosevelt and will sell in the $1,000 price class. Out of all the switching about the following line-up hes emerged: Four fours, 32 manufacturers offer 55 lines of sixes, and 20 makers are turning out 38 eights, of which 34 are of the straight variety. Fuel Induction Improvement. That engine design upon which ten years of intensive athe a ‘effort have been concentrated is basically satisfac- tory now is patent in the fact that the improvements wr ht this year are a continuance of the refinement process. By way of illustration, one might cite those changes wrought in the fuel induction system. | This feature of the motor has.been troublesome to a certain extent for Len if they are to fulfill h compression — are in dire need the device which has served well, it has been displaced in fuel pump. Last a considerable switch over to this de- vice which nei — 18 — in proportion to the s 0 e en- gine, Still more are listed among the ump converts this year. The majority however, still adhere to the old vacuum tank, with modifi- ‘leat those intervals when the manifold vacuum its low. Franklin sterted this device on the road to recognition, Es- sex employs it this:year. The question of the relative merits of the two de- vices is by no means settled. Forced Feed Lubrication. As another gesture toward improving carburetion, the new cars show a still more definite swing toward the plain tube type of carburetor. In the matter of lubrication, forced feed seems to have just about won the debate. The only exception is’ Ford's system which particularly well fite the req ts of the model A plant. Oil filters and crankcase ven- tilation, the latter more adjustable for different conditions, have made such headway during the past year that they now are used by virtually every car maker, One intereating aspect of the hubri- cation system ig that pistons have been fitted with an oll ring at the bottom. The ring, incidentally, serves as much to keep the skirt of the aluminum pis- ton firm as to prevent the pressure cir- culated oll from rising too far in the cylinder. Aluminum alloy pistons have won all but a few over to their cause. In some of the most expensive cars, however, the cast-iron piston continues in its position of unshakable dominance. The greater heat under which valves are working today has led to the uni- versal adoption of more heat-resistant metals for these units. The finest of alloy steels are employed. While on the subject of valves, it is worthy of mention that better and differently de- signed springs are contributing to their silence and their efficiency. Another valve change is **+ be found in the wider use of the 30-degree seat as a means of improving fuel induction without increasing the size of the valve or its lift, Silence Problem Met. Considerable progress is evident in the new cars with respect to their sil- ence. Let it be understood that sil- ence is no simple problem. The higher the speed, the greater the power of the engine—the more trying becomes the problem of keeping it noiseless at all speeds. Despite this fact, the engineer has done remarkably well in the solu- tion of the dilemma. Four-point engine suspension is practiced on every side. Rubber in- sexrts between the engine and its sup- ports continue to be used with the in- teresting change, in some cases, that greater lateral deflection is permitted. Better balance of reciprocating parts is another form taken by the search for silent operation. Greater firmness in the suspension of the crankshaft and camshaft and more rigidity in the crankcase are still other ways in which the engineer has attacked the problem. Chain drive which contributes silence by dampening the vibrations naturally transmissible between the two shafts is still more widely used. Counterweights on the cranksheft - _| and vibration dampeners obtain about a 50-50 split in the followings they have won. On one line, a car-maker may use one of these methods, on an- other the second. Apparently, the par- ticular design governs the choice. Among those using the dampener are Gardner, Graham-Paige, Jordan, Kis- sel, Moon, Durant, Peerless, Reo and Auburn. Cadillac, Desoto, Ford, Essex, LaSalle, Packard and Stearns-Knight are among those which employ the counterweighted shaft. — — — —— — — hold in several other sections of me industry. Moon's new White Prince line boasts of such a gearseg. So do the newest Stutz ucts. The larger Durants continu to employ it. In most of these instances the inter- nal gear is used and both third and high speeds are direct. Low gear is useful only when starting on a hill, and, ly, is latched out to the left, leaving the shift standard to all intents and urposes. The beneath transmission of the Cadillac and LaSalle products const!- tutes an Important change in this unit of the car. It is anticipated in many quarters that this radical departure will be adopted by many other com- panies before the decline of 1929. Meavier Propeller Shafts. As for the rest of the drive mechan- ism, refinement of past practices is the rule. Heavier peller shafts are used in some cases with an eye toward the elimination of “whip” and its irritat- ing effects. Two universal joints are growing under some cars where but one grew before and generally there is visible an effort to give this hard- working unit a more adequate degree of lubrication. The clutch gen-- erally the single plate variety, p if highest the case of cars with the power, where multiple disc design gets the call because of its greater capacity to withstand the arduous work it must do. . Central chassis lubrication systems are more common among the 1929 cars, indicating that more menufacturers wisely have concluded that this im- portant task must be made as easy as possible if it is to be attended to by the owner. This particular departure still has to make more progress. to — — — —— — — — — — — — —— THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, JANUARY. 2%. 1929. — —— — : ee a i : — eR aged — ——— * — de fg, a, ae * —* — 4 ee ry" Se [ WEARS ITS FAMOUS NAME PARTED INTHE MIDDLE | : art bo our 4 — “22, EPOENS ee UnE He Ba gs aD The 615 to commuters may be the designation of a train, but to followers of motor cars, int’s one of © numerous Graham-Paige products.

TRAIN SCHEDULES CITED AS SAFETY EXAMPLES Michigan Declared Leading Way to Sane Solution of Traffic Problem. ——— “Safety and speed regulations still | are in the horse and buggy era.” With that statement as his premise, Paul G. Hoffman, Studebaker official, declares for a common sense attitude with regard to motor car speeds and against arbitrary limitation of the auto- mobile’s usefulness by unsound legis- lative speed enactments. “A survey of the history of trans- portation,” Mr. Hoffman points out, “will reveal that every new mode of travel has been subject to arbitrary regulation and restriction. It took years for the railroads to convince legislative bodies that passenger trains might be operated safely with speed. “Now the crack trains forge through the night at 60 and 70 miles an hour while passengers sleep as free from worry as they would._be in their own homes. If they think at all of the fears of their forefathers, it is with a smile. Safety Shown by Railroads. “The rpilroads have proved that under proper conditions both speed and safoty can be attained. “Speed with safety is the foundation of the utility of fast railroad transpor- tation. Speed with safety can be at- tained by the motor Car. ‘ in itself is not a dangerous thing. Traffic and safety experts know that speed per second is not the source of danger it is popularly supposed to be. “It igs not speed alone, but ‘speed in combination with other factors, that | makes accidents.

Ww evidence of reckless driving if traffic is crowded and streets are slippery. On the other hand, a perfectly clear high- way with no intersections, conflicting traffic, or sharp curves permit a mo- torist to speed along in perfect safety without the consciousness that he is a lawbreaker.

And if the road is slippery he must drive more slowly, because it may take him longer to stop. “In short, the Michigan code con- forms to the natural driving habits of every careful driver, and has plenty of teeth in it for the reckless. It has been in successful operation long enough now to prove that fixed speed limits are an obsolete weapon against reckless driving. High-Speed Roads Urged. | “Sensible legislation and enforcement will help make motor roads safe for higher speeds, but to achieve the ul- timate, America must build a network of specially constructed high-speed roadways. For the past several years there has been a great deal of discus- sion about superhighways and special- ly constructed toll roads, perhaps built by private capital, on which speeds over 60 miles an hour would be safe. “It is time to stop talking and get busy on the actual construction of these roads. They are no longer deemed visionary by highway engineers. “Detroit and ‘Jayne Courty, Mich.. have led the way in the development of wide roads of the super-highway type. There is a toll road on Long Is- land where motorists may travel in safety as fast as their cars will carry them. — * “The outstanding example of the modern high speed super-highway de- manded by present day conditions is found in Italy. The Autostrada, con- necting Milan with nearby centers, is giving a spectacular demonstration of the safety of high speeds on properly constructed highways. There is “no speed limit on this system of travel lanes, no grade crossings, and pedes- trians are barred by strong fences. “The Autostrada is safe for high speeds because the elements that make high speed dangerous have been elimi- nated. Take away thé causes of danger —straighten the sharp turns, ease the grades, prevent cross traffic, keep out pedestrians, separa*‘e grade crossings, and you have a highway as safe as any specially constructed speedway. “An ‘Autosttada’ between New York and Philadelphia would assure a safe and sane trip in two hours. A similar roadway between San Francisco and Los Angeles would reduce the average running time from eighteen hours to less than ten.” Chart Is Blamed For Oil Trouble Hard to Follow, Is Claim; Simplification Now in Progress. Difficulties encountered heretofore | by the motorist in his attempts to abide by the instruction book's lubri- | cation chart are believed to have been responsible for many service station and repair shop visits.

NEGLECT CONSIDERED CARDINAL DRIVING SIN Study Will Show if Clutch Is’ Slipping and Tell When Motor Stalls. The airplane pilot’s dials and gauges make it possible for him to fly safely to his destination, and thoughtful motor- ists place the same reliance upon the instruments which the manufacturers heave installed upon the dashboard of today’s motor cars. Without his gauges the plane pilot would soon lose his way and would have no knowledge of how the mechanism was functioning. The motorist also de- s upon his instrument board to nform him of what is taking place me- chanioally. Furthermore, the careful motor st cultivates the habit of read- ing his instruments correctly as a means of making motoring smoother and more enjoyable. To neglect to use instrument board consistently is regarded by experienced motor car owners as being a cardinal driving sin. . Reliance on Gauges Urged. “Here you have a marvelously con- structed. piece of machinery,” they ar- gue. “It performs many functions while transporting one from place to place, and many operations must coordinate for the correct performance of the whole. Without a check upon these Many units, how is cne to tell what is tranaspiring? There is no other way but to be certain that one’s instruments are correct, and then to rely upon them and to act upon their warnings.” According to those who support the view that a glance at the instrument board now and then is a highly praise- worthy practice, one of the important features of the board is the grouping of the indicators so that they can be compared with each other. The use of the speedometer is known to every mo- Aorist, but its use in conjunction with one of the other indicators by no means is 80 well recognized. For example, if the speedometer shows that the car is traveling at 20 miles an hour, and the ammeter needle is in the position where it would or- _ dinarily be for a speed of 30 miles an hour, the driver is being given a warn- ing. If the oil gauge shows pressure that would be custom Many of the new cars have the mo- tor heat indica t board, ent again. All this can voided by learning to watch the ammeter. The needle will flicker a tle long as the engine idles. When the needle will stand quietly position. | ‘the oil pressure gauge the mo- t can tell just how cold the motor the condition of the oil. er, he may have to take consideration* what he already knows of the weather, his mileege and ‘other conditions. gauge igh as usual. On a Mot day, of course, ® drop in the pressure would have to be ** less seriously. Fresh oil in the crankcase will show a higher pressure at all times, but when the car has been standing out in the cold the temperature of the en- gine is indicated .also by the high- pressure reading of the gauge. Indications of Trouble. The gasoline gauge on the dash makes it possible to compare the reading of the odometer with the gasoline con- sumption. If the driver hits a pace of $0 miles an hour and finds a gallon Gisappears after a distance of 10 miles, whereas his normal miteage is 15, he knows there is something wrong. It may be that his tires are too low or that his carbureter is out of adjust- ment. ; - The gasoline gauge sometimes will tell something of the characte? of the road. Its reading dial will be very much disturbed over a rough rokd, and in Some arrangements the grade of a ‘hill can be judged by the driver. In climbing a hill the level of the gasoline in the tank is changed so that the Hoat that controls the instrument- board gas gauge is distur according- ly. The instrument may thus register more gasoline or less. A little investi- ' gation will tell the driver quickly which way the indicator goes when climbing hills or when descending a hill, and a little practice in judging conditions from the instrument often will make driving easier. Since making use of the gas gauge for this purpose one driver says that he is surpri to discover how often he mils is the grade of a hill when de- pending upon his vision. NaturaHy he does not strain the engine. The instruments are on the board to be ysed, and the more practice one has in them the less mysterythere is to ns of the engine and its allied units. The instrument board is more than a is at the wheel. | | The only eight-cylinder sleeve-valve engine on the American market is that housed under the hood of the Stearns-Knight, of which the sedan is shown above. — — — — — Higher power, greater speed, larger, and more roomy bodies—and all for less | money than cars ever cost before. That | is the tempting menu that the automo- tive industry is holding before the world today. Just how emphatically true is this statement can be deter- mined by a trip along any town’s auto- mobile row. Look at the car behind the show window and then compare it with the model of the same make standing parked at the curb. It is this kind of comparison that lets the ob- server in on the secret—if there is a se- Looking Over the Cars Some of the Points You May Have Missed BY THE OBSERVER cret—of the automotive industry's su- periority to all competing enterprises. In introducing its 125 series eight, | Auburn holds to its conviction that there is no need to change a pleasing body design. The bodies of the new car, in appearance, are almost identical with those offered during the last few years. , — . * Looking over these cars, one may re- call the thought of a few years ago, that automobiles would have to be made smaller so that more.of them could be tucked along the curbs be- tween intersections. Yet, time has ~ «- proved that motor buyers think of cars with respect to how they run and not how small a parking space they require. Parking is a problem, no doubt, but we buy cars first to use them and not to stand them by a curb. ca ” . In its “attention-getting” campaign in the trade press prior to the an- nouncement of the new Blackhawk, Stutz at least gave an idea of what the car was to look like. Silhouette and the final product turned out to be one and the same in line. The observer, for one, is convinced that an illustrated secret is even more provocative than 'one not illustrated. ‘ . + Molded brake linings seem headed for still wider use this year, judging by what has happened since the new cars bowed their way into the limelight. That, of course, does not mean the Iis- sue over their superiority as compared with woven linings is settled. There may be switches all along the line for some time yet. os « - * It is impossible not to notice the tires when looking over the cars today. Every time the observer catches a man- Research Scientists Crowd Automobile Laboratories Every Branch of Labor Also Represented in Manufacture and Improvement of Motor Cars; All the World Contributes Material. Virtually every form of scientific re- search and every branch of labor is represented in the highly refined prod- ucts of today’s motor car laboratories and manufactories. Bo asserts G. M. Williams, head of Marmon, pointing out the vast ramifi- cations resultant upon the constant, unceasing efforts to make of the auto- mobile the most efficient, the safest, and: the most luxrious mode of individ- ual transportation in the world’s his- Though it is the function of the au- tomotive engineer to develop and per- fect new and more efficient points of design and construction, it also is his duty to keep abreast of advancements throughout the world of science, for often in some remote corner of the earth a new idea may have an impor- tant effect on the automobile industry, Mr. Williams says. To draw an illustration, Mr. Williams shows that even the.half-savage native in far-off Africa who finds a better way to remove the gum from a rubber tree is a contributor to the progress of America’s greatest industry. Most man- ufacturers, he points out, maintain a board of engineers which regularly col- lects and analyzes reports from all branches of science. All Countries Contribute. “If there is a country in the entire world or a State in the entire United States that. does not contribute sub- stantially to the automotive industry in products, brains, or even unskilled labor, I do not khow its name,” Mr.. Williams says. “The savage in Africa or South America, gathering the gum from rubber trees, later to be exported to the United States for tires, is just as importaht a contributor to the effi- clency of the automobile as is his bet- ter paid cousin in a giant factory who carefully fits pistons into the cylinder block of an engine. “Southern European countries have sent their unskilled labor to America. There are the tool and gauge experts of the Scandinavian countries who have contributed in no small way to the exact science of measurement that is used in building automobile engines. There are the woodsmen who send ma- terial for body and interior woodwork, and the countries and districts which supply the array of metals, such as iron, nickel, aluminum, copper, brass and sil- ver, are as important contributors as the laborers who gather wood and silk in various corners of the earth to serve as the basis for upholstery and fit- tings. “This list might be extended greatly, but to my mind even more important is the manner in which the automobile industry looks toward new inventions, methods, ideas and developments. It has been said that the brains of 100.- 000 men are apparent in the modern automobile, and I believe it is no ex- aggeration. Have Board of Engineers. “Practically every automobile factory maintains a board of engineers for the purpose of keeping in- touch at all times with the progress being made in every industry allied to the automobile and with every industry which has even the most remote possibility of supplying some contribution to the motor car. “Merely the fact that spark plugs are used in the engine of a motor car means that the ceramic industry is vitally interested in the automobile industry. Ceramic chemists are at work continu- ally to evolve a better formula, per-, haps, for the production of the bit of porcelain insulation of each plug. * “Probably no group of scientists has furnished more contributions to the automobile, or is more keenly interest- éd in its development, than metal- lurgists... Their contributions number into the many tho ds; babbited bearings, special alloys for pistons and piston rings, experiments to. find stronger yet lighter metals suitable for chassis and bodies and chromium plat- ing are but a few of the contributions of mejallurgists. In the field. of elec- trical engineering there is another group of scientists who have con- tributed such important features as head lamps, ignition, the magneto and tail lamps. The work of rubber chem- ists and paint chemists is plainly seen. In addition, hundreds of: contributions have come from clock and instrument makers, woodworkers, glass workers and many more. “It is the duty of the board of en- gineers to know what is going on al- ways in these varied industries and to be ready to change an entire manu- facturing or assembling department on a moment’s notice if some new develop- ment is made which obsoletes the one @iready in practice. Improve Machinery. “There is almost as large a group that busies itself with planning, mak- ing and improving machinery to make the various parts of an automobile. Into this group falls those inventors who make the marvelous gauges to which parts are held to insure precision workmanship. Another group works on time and labor saving machinery— figuring out how some new machine can do better work with less man power, or how a plant may. be rear- ranged for more efficient production. “Mathematicians and physicists, too, have important roles.to play in the manufacture of the automobile. They must be able to figure out correctly such things as the horsepower neces- sary to efficiently pull a motor car of a certain weight, or how much un- sprung weight a car must have in order to: insure safe, comfortable rid- ing. “During the last two decades an- other group of pioneers has been giv- ing invaluable contributions to the automotive industry. That group con- sists of the race drivers, engineers on their own merits, who test from year to year the improvements made by all industries for the automobile. If such improvements survive the gruelling speedway tests they are meritorious enough to be placed on the regula- tion automobile. “I do not believe that any- product manufactured has as interesting a life history or family tree as the automo- bile. Archimides, the famous Greek physicist, has contributed to it. 60 has Newton. The automobile makes use of the discoveries and inventions of Pranklin, Edison, and the others, as well as those exclusively of its own.” ' | LARGEST MEMBER OF A LARGE AUTOMOTIVE FAMILY 4 — sans he Fie * * —— pecs illustrated, is the largest of epg, sd cto of the. industry.

A creation of the Du Pont engineering staff. it is said to embody possibilities in color that are expected to be espe- clally interesting to women. As if men were not just as much interested in color! — v . . When General Motors’ name appears at the bottom of an ad that starts out “3 out of 5,” one is startled by the thought that the corporation may have gone into the pyorrhea business, When one reads on to find that that propor- tion of cars are used cars, one réal- ies that apparently many think this type of transportation is worth looking over.

After that, all that was left to the imagination was what it would look like, how many cylinders it would have, how fast it would go, and a few similar details. — 2 — — One of the really surprising “eight” announcements was that Pierce-Arrow is to assume this form. Always in the fine-car class, Pierce-Arrow represented one of the few big cars holding out for six cylinders. . . > Further evidence of the specialist's better position in motor car making is found in the recent change in Ford policies. Whereas the Model T was entirely homemade in Dearborn and elsewhere, the Model A is going outside for various important parts. Batteries. bodies, tires, and starters, once of Mr. Ford’s own creation, are now being bought, in part, at least, from outsiders. Thus the whole industry recognizes the advantages of the specialist in many fields. cy The thermostat. is getting to be more, useful all the time. In addition to that type widely used in controlling the cooling solution, a new use has been found for the device in a recently de- veloped dydraulic shock absorber. The therm@stat in this case varies the ori- fice through which the liquid flows in direct relation to the viscosity of the liquid. Its purpose is to compensate or the tendency of the absorber to ab- sorb less as it gets hot from excessive work. = - - The American motor car market looks good to foreign car makers, too. Lancia comes across from England to join Rolls Royce in being assembled in this country. * . ° Phaetons appear destined to run Si, si, senor, this is the sedan coche that bears the coat of arms of DeSoto, the youth seeker. Teaching of Safe Driving — Again by Dealer Advocated| That automobile dealers and sales- men have placed in their hands singu- lar opportunities to teach safe driving methods and manners to bad drivers is the contention of a leading figure in the automotive industry. If dealers, he says, would realize the importance of not making final deliv- ery of their cars until the new owners had been taught to drive them cor- rectly, every one concerned would be greatly benefited. Besides giving in- struction of proper handling of the wheel, dealers could make it a point, also, to instruct the novice in matters of road etiquette, politeness and traf- fic regulations. In the older days of the automobile industry an important function of the automobile dealer or salesman was fo give driving lessofis to purchasers or prospective purchasers, Now, however, * ⸗ - ™ : — — - . ’ E +s * 4 5 2 g _. s 7 / * = 1 me ee y ' ; © ‘ v — J ' . ’ ' * a 7 ’ ; ' . 4 4 ; »”* = , » . 8 . 4 6 4 r 2 , 4 § F e ¥ * — 6 *x Ha uth HH B 8 : i New Cars Should Run At 25 Miles an Hour Running-in a new engine should be done cautiously and one’s dealer honors this seasoh.

IMPROVEMENT IN DESIGN INCREASES POPULARITY Four Companies Now Operate Transcontinental Lines on Fixed Schedules. Prom a few awkward, ungainly, un- comfortable “rubberneck” vehicles that were neither wagons nor buses, but simply trucks with open bodies and rows of leather seats; there has grown up in this country a giant industry which has become one of the great nger carrying agencies of the Na- ion, sometimes supplementing and sometimes supplanting street car lines and railroads. The bus industry is one of the /usti- est of the numerous progeny of the automobile industry. Beginning its de- velopment later than many of its ‘el- lows, it has made up for lost time by doing in a few years what it has taken others many to accomplish, and by rolling up for it a record whose factual and statistical story is astonishingly interesting and impressive. Its high lights, particularly with reference to developments of the im- mediate past and present, are covered by Carl W. Stocks, editor of Bus Trans- portation, in an article in the New York Times. Million a Day in Fares. “Practically every mile of our State highway systems now is covered by common carrier buses,” he says. “The se Operated approximates 1,800,- 000,000 miles annually, or about 5,000,- 000 miles each day. The traffic handled is close to 3,000,000,000 passengers, who annually expend $350,000,000 for the service, or about $1,000,000 a day. “There are tely 92,000 buses In operation in the United States.

This tendency has demonstrated itself in a willingness to Grop traditional attitudes regarding such control problems as parking, and to favor methods of regulation which a short time ago would have been con- sidered radical innovations. The im- portance of this attitude is most strik- ingly demonstrated in the action of the street traffic committee of the Chicago Association of Commerce in recom- mending a trial of prohibited parking In the Loop district. “This regulation became effective |January 8, 1928, and has, therefore, | been in operation for approximately twelve months. It is the sole example of a parking prohibition in a central , business district which has been main- tained for any length of time. The regulation has continued to gain sup- port of widely diverse business in- terests, and thus far has shown impor- conditions existing in the Loop area. Uniform Laws Required. “This growing exchange of traffic be- 'tween different political jurisdictions nhas emphasized the necessity for a | sStamdardization and uniformity of laws land regulations respecting automobile \Ownership and operation. The past year has shown notable advance in this field. A number of States have acted to bring their motor vehicle laws into conformity with the uniform code Grafted by the National Conference on Street and Highway Safety under the sponsorship of the United States De- partment of Commerce. Present pro- grams indicate that .many of the 1929 legislatures will add substantially to /mational untformity. | “The year 1928 marked the completion ot two important uniform documéats by the same national confer- — code of traffic signs and sig- nals. , Plan t8 Gaining Favor. \fect in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chi- .

But—the greatest word in any language -is— Faith— Faith in an idea. Itisthefundamental principle of all religion—the foundation of all business. If that dominant idea, supported by that faith, embodies the ideal of intelligently serv- ing others, no human force can stop its prog- ress because meg naturally rally to its support. The Jordan idea-was conceived many years ago to gratify an admirable group of people who know that character or quality in a man or a woman, as in an honest article of mer- chandise, is beyond price or competition. The Jordan idea has met the competition of those thoughtless ones who do not know that the price of a thing is what we exchange for it, not in money, but in personal happiness, comfort and mental satisfaction. The new Jordan, now being shown for the first time, is an inspiring expression of the original Jordan ideal. Such a car, strong in character, superb in effi- ciency, can be the fastest on the road without loss of dignity. The new Jordan Eight is just that—and there is a sturdy companion Six. Of course to be a Jordan it must excel in beauty and dominating style. Those many thousands of Jordan owners, who, weary of the commonplace first: found distinction in this car, expect that. That rare quality of balance which has always kept the Jordan going forward and away from chassis we have ever built: rN and now—msy I soun - — — all compelling —all appealing —striking note which will typify the new universal demand of all experienced owners—If is @ new. kind of comfort. To be frank and brief—the new Jordan will satisfy in a delightful way that’ great human desire for mental and physical comfort, which means not only gratifyi the escape from fatigue and little ann e* — but will provide that warm and inspiring something which makes a car a happy com- forting companion, a source of rare pride— | a possession that will bring joy. It is a refreshing interpretation of what alf discriminating people know must eventually constitute a fine motor car. Only experienced people of better judgment and higher taste know that a superior motor car can be purchased for less money than an inferior one. The initial cost of the inferior one represents merely the first installment in a series of payments.

Its posi- tion is that the potential demand is so vast that the test results will be achieved by all. nations to- gether to i ve tra tion con- tions, and that each will benefit from e enlarged market. Better’ Values Given. “The automobile market in the because of its outdoor advantages is being increasingly preferred because of the quick transportation made possible by the automobile. “Our most important market which creates less discussion than either the export or suburban field is that of farm usage. The agricultural demand has always been the backbone of the auto- mobile business and will continue to United States is established on the im- | D¢ 50 pregnable rock of keeping faith with the public. Automobile prices continue to be less than prewar. The 1014 auto- mobile dollar will buy more than $1.07 today, while the f power of the average cost-of-livimg dollar has de-. y|clined to $61., In other words, today Chamber of Oom- he explains, “I believe that ——— not solely from the tetandpetht of automotive sales, though. _ that — is gratifying, but it is pri- because of the stabli- — on the entire industry.” existence of a market for 4,000,- Cars and trucks outside of the It requires fewer hovywrs of labor, fewer bushels of wheat, pounds of beef, bales of cotton, and so forth, to purchase @ motor car than it did before the war. “There are today a great variety of serviceable automobiles selling at a minimum price and even the higher quality cars are available to families of moderate income. As long as the automobile industr., continues to: give exceptional value per dollar it can be assured of strong public patronage. “It is interesting to note that this year one hears much less talk about cut-throat competition. There is, of course, plenty of competition in the automobile business, and there always will be, just as there is competition in shoes, clothing, and any other field where style and individuality are fac- tors. The particular appeal to the public this year is being made along the~lines of competitive merits rather more per dollar rather than trying to put out the cheapest possible product. This tendency is making for more beautiful, more serviceable trans- tion. The cars of this year will, I believe, be the most attractive, the best designed in the history of the motor business. : Many Own Two Cars. “It has been estimated there are more than. 3,000,000 families in the United - | States owning two or more automobiles. | “arriving at 5,000,000 as the new This is a natural outgrowth of two con- ditions. “First of all, the low prices of cars industry | have brought the automobile within station costs far less than in the heart of the city, and yet this type of living > = a “Today there are 5,450,000 motor vehicles on farms. The progress of rural highways is making the farmer increasingly insistent upon having the advantages of consolidated rural schools, State agricultural. institutions, and other social and economic ad- vantages. “More than one-sixth of the automo- tive business in terms of dollars is in the sale of trucks and buses. Truck Operation Increasing. “Truck and bus operations are mov- ing forward rapidly. “Hundreds of motor bus lines are serving territories which have never before had adequate transportation. “Furthermore, there are today many long distance bus routes furnishing economical, pleasant transportation. Today you can go from Los Angeles to New York by bus, or between any two large cities in the country, such as De- troit and Chicago. “Similatly in the truck field while the great bulk of the haulage is for short distances, there are special long distance services being rendered which are successful and profitable. I be- lieve that the greatest promise for the commercial vehicle field lies in the referred, Cities are expanding rapidly, and each new suburb calls for rapid short haul transportation of persons and merchandise. “T am sometimes asked what I think of the future of the motor business over a long range period. Probably the best response to that is the statement that 93 per cent of the world’s popula- tion living outside of the United States own but 22 per cent of the world's automobiles. Add to this a belief in the continued growth and prosperity of the United States. With the vast op- portunity for new business abroad and the continuous demand for new and mt. vehicles at home, the automobile industry looks forward to a steady advance, * When to Throw the Clutch, This advice is as old as the motor car itself, but because there are always a host of newcomers to the highway, it remains good.

Will Benefit American Purchasers ae Assisting Man Pro- Which Lower Cost; Large It is not fanciful to look forward to the day when the American motor-car maker, who adequately develops the foreign field, may develop his export business up to a plane equaling his domestic sales. This viewpoint is held by John D. Biggers, Graham-Paige official, who goes On to emphasize that the develop- ment of a large volume of export busi- ness is of direct benefit not only to the motor car companies themselves but to American purchasers. “It is generally recognized that, in mass production, low cost depends on maintaining capacity production at all times,” says Mr. Biggers, “and ‘export business is a safeguard against seasonal Nuctuations in production.

While basically, all peoples are alike, you will find that the inhabitants of the 109 countries of the world are influenced by varied social, racial, religious, climatic, and economic factors, and consideration must be given these superficial difter- ences. “To reach these peoples is, in iteeif, a problem, There are 56 la s in the world, not counting the hundreds of dialects. It is necessary to print ad- vertisements in, 22 la in the newspapers, which is the best way of reaching people anywhere in the world, just as it is in the United States; and gales literature must be printed in 14 languages. “There are other difficulties such as credits, buying power, duties, taxes and special regulations. “Por instance, the distributor of an American car overseas, as compared with one here at home, requires more than twice as ‘much capital to do the game volume of business; first, use he has not credit facilities such as are offered by American banks; second, be- cause: he must pay. cash two or three months before his care reach him; third, because the cost of an American per cent when it arrives at his place of business. “Despite these difficulties, American manufacturers have made great prog- reas everywhere overseas and will con- tinue to do so.at ah increasing fate, because, since the motor business in most other countries has not beyorid the stage we attained ten or fifteen years ago, its greatest expansion is yet to come.” ee Automobiles in 1929 More ‘‘Alive’’ Than Ever Before Every driver at times has sensed that his car was alive. Its alert response, its litheness, ite “feel” have contributed) to this impression particularly during the last few years which have seen such amazing engineering advances. Now, with the 1929 cars out en masse. one learns that the modifications and innovations of desigm have greatly ac- centuated this sense that the automo- This characteristic of the new auto- mobiles—in varying degrees, from the least of them .to the grestest—is one that can not be recognized visually. As show should bear in mind that, while he is seeing a great deal, e can not become acquainted with the vast im- ‘provements made in the newest cars until he actually has ridden in or driven one of them. He will be the beauty, the color, the neatness, the vices, but. unless he sincerely is inter- ested and experienced, he may miss the fact that the new machines are every bit as good as they look. In other words, the motorist whe has gloried in the fact that his car was “alive” should reali > that they are more alive than ever before.

Accordingly, the salesman. wlio once -l was able to do most of his selling be- fore the demonstration actually began, now must meat a growing “show. me” attitude on the part of the prospective buyer. The motorist does not need to know the technical side of the car to be well up on performance, and he de- mands a demonstration that puts the car through all of its paces. Although he may not know . what makes a car fast, powerful, safe, easy te handle, and economical in opération, the wants to be sure that it has all ‘these qualities. To the credit of the automotive in- dustry, it can be said that the manu- facturer has given ‘the salesman a prod- uct that he does not have to argue the skeptic into buying. New Compound Needed For Exhaust Valves Many, perhaps a majority, of cars employ silcrome exhaust valves today. Silcrome is tough. It resists heat and the pounding to which valves are -x- posed. Furthermore, it resists the ordinary com that is used by the home mec i¢ in grinding valves. An at- tempt to use the compound that work- ea well ‘on the old type valves will end in failure.

HIGH TAXES ARE IMPOSED Lack of a fuller appreciation of the valye and fundamental importance of motor transportation to any country has resulted in a hindrance to the seile and norma] expansion of the use of motor cars in most countries, accords ing to H. O. Smith, chief automotive division, United States Pepartment of Commerce. Mr, Smith contends that this lack of appreciation manifests itself in the classification of the motor car as a luxury and therefore subject to high taxés of every conceivable kind, “re- sulting in the average selling price in most countries being about twice that applying to the same car in the United 8. ; “When motor vehicles are more gen- erally looked upon as. the embodiment of just so much potential transporta- tion and not a luxury, many of the ob- structions in the way of buying 4 car probably will be removed,” Mr. Smith says. He continues: Expands Despite Handicap. ® “In spite of these handicaps motor car use has expanded, and is expanding rapidly, not only in the United States but in practically every civilized coun- try of the world. “As recently as 1910 there vere only 468,500 motor vehicles in use in the United States, and in the yedr 1910 the United States production of cars and trucks totaled only 187,000 units. “Car registration 'n the Uni:ed States as recently as 1919 totaled only 1,217,- tions outside the United States reached 6,425,316 in 1927. “The 1926 net increase in registrat n outside the United States of 974,960 by} was more remarkable than was the net increase in.the United States of 2,030,- 466, difference in selling price and — — ——— — — — — —4 762 and in. 1018 we had only 5,848,867}... cars, buses and’ trucks, while registra- oS i aN aes cea Oy od ie —*— Pe bag es ee = | Se eS PAS 4 * 3 — — Saas See ; nee * Pp: Me re Sy fa tee a 5 4 haat ¢ ee a ae A ie ¥ mY at — ae 3 4 * ey * THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, JANUARY 27, 1929. ~~ ii —_— we os ee eS | IT ALSO WEARS THE The eight: of the Century is not for the Centurians, although doubtless they would like ft.

Expansion of motor vehicle use is being retarded by lack of more Suitable roads, by taxes’ and charges which are; high now because of lack of fuller understanding of the real value and importance of motor transportation to the people and the welfare and prosperity of any fountry. “The. motor vehicle has probably been one of the greatest'single factors bring- ing about the unusual prosperity the United States is enjoying ay, and I am confident we will find that the pros- perity of other countries will develop practically at the. same rate motor tramsportation is developed. ‘Af tt were possible to sell motor cars in: other countries at a price approxi- mating. those applying in the United States, plus only transportation cost and such necessary items, and if prices in the.

You’ then Inspection Is Urged Of Crankshaft Pulley There are lots of mysterious car noises. One that occurs seldom, but often enough to justify an occasional checking, is that caused by looseness in the pulley at the front end of the crankshaft. Driving most of the acces- sories—geneéerator, fan, water pump, etc.—it carties quite a burden and may » become loose. A noise in the front of the engine should suggest it be in- spected.

In some instances steps along this line already have been taken, and to good to have begun with so many auspicious effect. signs clearly visible. No Cause for Pessimism. Naturally, with such a background it is difficult to be pessimistic. And it is obvious that there is no cause for that. Rather there is cause for un- bounded optimism, and it ts just be- cause of that fact that some observers, well qualified, are sounding a note of caution. They are not deprecating in any respect the automobile industry's ability again to outstrip iteelf, but they are saying that a little care should be exercised to the end that the evil of overproduction not be encountered. Among such observers is Col. Leonard P. Ayres, a very able Cleveland economist whose words always are given the strict- est attention by the automobile in- dustry. Col. Ayres has stated it to be his belief that there may be some downward revision in 1929 production schedules. Yet, at the same time, he is confident that the industry has a good year before ‘it. In the opinion of Norman G. Shidle, writing in Automotive Industries, “the >| automotive industry seems likely to continue to break records during 1929.” “There is every indication,” Mr. Shidle says, “that in sales and production of both cars and trucks, the industry will go ahead even of the great profit-pro- again this The sutomotive industry, knowing that the only thing which will Mmit the use of the automobile in this country will be a lack of sufficient roads, and sufficiently wide roads, is constantly supporting efforts to extend the availabie road mileage. Also it is in behalf of broad, fast high- ways which will enable the motorist to use with safety a larger proportion of the speed built into today’s motor cars. A hurried glance of the automobile industry shows it to be strongly in- trenched and solving its problems ef- fectively. That it has many more than have been covered herein is obvious, but they are not so serious and are being met successfully from month to month. The more than 53,000 car and truck dealers in the United States have their own individual problems, too, but that they have been combating them with vigor is indicated in the generally firm position in which they have estab- lished themselves. Merger Trend Evident, A trend of recent years, which was continued in 1928 and which some prophets believe will manifest itself year, is that toward closer knit organizations. In other words, the merger tendency. The industry con- stantly is growing larger in the aggre- gate and is composed of a few-r num- ber of big units. In a review of the industry last year the present observer said that despite this trend toward giant corporations there still would be ample room for the smaller producers, catering to smaller groups. This is still true, but the exercise of ingenuity and Upper left—The popular Ford coupe. Lower left——The larger Plymouth coach. judgment and care with respect to financial considerations is obviously necessary. Where this is being done to- day the smaller producers are’ doing | nicely, and in the future alertness should continue to be rewarded. On every hand are evidences that t industry is moving Into the new ye , in a healthy condition. Of paramount importance, its newest models, the com- }. modity it has to sell, surely have gained a heavy volume of papular favor ducing. quantities established during 1928. Huge gains are not to be looked for, to be sure, but gains can be pre- dicted without any great stretch of the on.” : Quantitative Guess Hard. “Assuming familiarity with the auto- motive industry in general and access to detailed records and figures of past | —— performances, one man's quantitative , | ne ee FS — a 1929 is as good as another's.

Cities that may be classified as “over- built” are in the minprity, but in prac- tically’ every city. there is an oversup- ply in some one class of property, Henry G, Zander, retiring president of the National Association of Real Estate Boards, deciares in a statement pre- ‘pared following a country-wide survey of the real estate situation. “One can not talk with the leaders in the real estate business in practically every State in the Union without get- ting a composite picture of real estate conditions generally,” he said. “Wher- ever I have gone I have tried to ge the picture affecting property of a classes, from the 100 per cent business corner to the outlying residential dis- tricts and the adjacent farm prop- erties.

The investor is unwilling to take this viewpoint. He, demands a sub- stantial immediate ‘return with the added inducement of enhancement in value, “The speculative buyer has been very much out of the market, and I am inclined to think he is out of the market to stay for some time to come,” he continued. “There is plenty of cap- ital available for real estate invest- ment with an earning. capacity as. in- dicated above.

LAFAYETTE SQUARE DELETED BY BANK International Institution Is to Move to Brookings Building. Plans to remove the International Bank from its present quarters in the Southern. Building to the recently completed building of the Brookings Institution at 16 J n place, on Friday of this week, were announced yesterday by John R. Waller, president of the bank. Organized a decade ago, when head- quarters first were established in the McLaughlin Building, the Interna- tional Bank later moved to 807 Pif- teenth street northwest, and now its continued growth has made n another change, President stated. Under a long-term lease negotiated with the, Brookings Institution, the bank will take over. the ground floor of the new structure, as well as the mezzanine. This, it was stated, will provide ample space for the recently established real estate exchange and insurance departments, under the su- pervision of A. L. Handy. Near the White House. . The ‘new office. building which is to become the headquarters of the Inter- national Bank is unique in many re- |. spects, especially .as to location. it faces Lafayette Square and is flanked by the White House, the Bureau of Internat Revenue, the Cosmos Club. the Veterans’ Bureau, St. John’s Church, the new Hay-Adams House and the Chamber of Commerce of the United: States. Placed midway on the west side of the square, the structure’ rises eight stories in heighteand has a command- Ing’ view to the west of the Virginia hills, to the 40th of the Potomac and to the east of downtown Washington and the. Capitol. The architect. Waddy B. Wood, has treated the narrow facade in monu- mental fashion. A -high-arched en- trance, flanked by broad piers, leads up- ward to the sixth floor, at which point there is a slight setback guardeu by two Waller stone griffins. From this story rise stone | piers, terminating in a pediment at the roof’ line. The roof slopes back, gable fashion, to a finial of classic design. cast in solid bronze. Each floor consists oi two six-room suites of offices, one suite running west and the other east from the elevator lobby ahd stairway. Each suite ter- minates in a large room running the width of the building, and contains four windows and a mantel and open fireplace. The rooms are finished in gumwood with a rubbed surface, and all are equipped with the latest type of venetian blinds. The flooring is mastic durafiex, a resilient tan surface. Presented to Institution. The building was constructed accord- ing to the personal plans of Robert s Brookings, who upon completion pre- serited the structure to its present own- er, the Brookings Institution, which is LAND ENHANCEMENT LURES SPECULATION OF Why Some People ‘Buy Real Estate Is Explained to Y. M. C. A. Class. APPRAISAL IS OUTLINED Speculation has a far-reaching effect upon land values, Alfred H. Lawson, real estate officer of the Washi Loan & Trust Co., last week told the ¥. M. C. A. class in real estate. Lured by the prospect of enhanced property values people commonly purchase land not from the standpoint of util- ity, but for the purpose of —— at a profit. “ The appraisal of real estate, he point- ed out, is & specialized fleld, and as such it includes the estimating of the value of land, buildings, parts of build- ' he ings and leaseholds. Mr. Lawson stated that real estate value have able in the business world opinions of e market- and as ‘properties become more complex and their values harder to determine, the ‘Importance of the “offhand” appraiser diminishes. It is quite easy for one slightly familiar with real estate val- ues, it was inted out, to make a fair appraisal on a dwelling, but when the same person undertakes to ap- praise a valuable piece of downtown or commercial property. it is impos- sible because of lack of requisite skill and experience. Determine Rental Value. It was brought out that the occa- sions for appraising are numerous, chief- among them being the sale-or purchase of a piece of property which might depend upon an appraisal and which should be made upon the basis of the fair cash market values. In ad- dition, Mr. Lawson stated, appraisals are made to determine rental value under a long term lease, property held for estates, determining rental for a department in a store in ‘order to cor- rectly charge such a department in its cost accounting; determining the as- sets for inheritance tax purposes; dis- tribution of assets under wills; for in-~ come tax; establishing rates for pub- lic utilities; for taxation purposes, and for condemnation purposes, It was explained by Mr. Lawson that the courts have held that the fair cash market value of a piece of real estate is the price which a seller who is willing and able, but not. compelled to sell, will accept for his property from a purchaser who is willing and able | but not compelled. to buy. Assumptions are Made. It was further pointed out by Mr. Lawson that in appraising an income producing property that the appraiser must make the following assumptions: The remaining useful life of the pres-\, ent improvemcnts ur the length of time which should ¢lapse before plac-. ing a new building on the site; the extent of the present net income; the selection of improvements which will represent the highest and best use of the property; the determination of the actual costs involvéd in changing the improvements; the assumed gross rent · al which will be produced and the total annual deductions in the form of op- erating expenses, taxes and dep tion which will be incurred in the op- eration of the new building. In the appraisal’ of residential property there are a number of elements to be con- sidered,:Mr. Lawson stated, prominent among them being natural advantages, civic advantages, the rate and state of the city’s growth. and the character of the community. One of the best and surest ways to determine the value of eal estate, Mr. Lawson poifited out, is by comparisun. usually called the method of “compara- tive value,” which involves the princi- ple of uniformity, by which is meant the established district is characterized by a basic or fundamental vaiue. The uitilities of sites, it was brought out. | are similar because the firms attracted to the district make similar require- ments for sites, and these factors apply in determining the long-time value of all the lots.

NO REVERSAL IS SEEN The reports of continued gains in building activities throughout the country are not borne out by the actual facts is revealed in a national monthly building survey just made public by 5. W Straus & Co. This survey includes Official reports of building plans filed or permits issued in approximately 550 leading cities and towns in every State in the Union. The reports show that building generally has been on a steady decline since .the end of July. Taken month by month, the percentages of loss as compared with the same month of the preceding year were as follows: August, 11 per cent; September, 10 per cent; October, 1 per cent; November, 17 per cent, and December, 11 per cent. It is pointed out by the same author- ity that there is nothing in the situa- tion to indicate the possibility of an immediate reversal of form. The pri- mary cause of the let-up in building operations is ascribed to high money rates, although building has been pro- ceeding at top speed for the last five years and a lull for a while is no more than might be expected, it is said. The survey also brings out the fact that the best estimate of actual build- ing operations for the entire country per cent from 1927, 14 per cent from 1926 and 18 per cent from 1925 ‘This estimate is based on the building per- mit records in the 550 centers. They include only new buildings and altera- tions and are not to be confused with the construction of highways, dams, subways and various other types of en- gineering jobs and public works. It is apparent from the studies made by S. W. Straus & Co. that the decline now in progress is somewhat more pro- nounced in the smaller centers than in the large cities. In the group of 26, Cities which last year led the Nation in building permits, the falling off from the preceding annual period was negligible, the figutes being $1,276,291.- 635 for 1928 and $1,275,104,122 for 1927. In 1926 the same tities reported $1,546,- 658,993, last year’s loss being 17 per cent. The decline in New York City during the final third of the year was heavy. In December, building plans were $46,- 964,436 compared with $73,562,407 in 1927, and of $30,100,000 from Novem-' numbers of $16,200,000 from November, 1927, and of $30,000,000 from Novem- ber, 1926. Octoter filings were over $10,000,000 below those of the preced- ing October and $70,000,000 below Oc- tober, 1926. The September loss was $4,500,000 from the preceding year and $20,000,000 from’ 1926. While New York operations were of such magnitude du the first eight months of the year to make possible a gain of $63,- 000,000 for the year, reports from other large cities of the country were less encouraging. Chicago’s total for the year was $315,800,000, a loss from 1927 of $37,000,000 and of $51,000,000 from 1926. Detroit, with, $129,260,285 last year, sustained a loss of $16,000,000 from 1927 and of $54,000,000 from 1926. Philadelphia’s figures were 65,500,000 below 1927 and $28,000,000 below 1926. Los Angeles sustained a loss of $22,000,- 000 compared with both 1927 and 1926. The total in the 25 leading cities in December was $153,193,733 compared with $174,275,873 last year, a loss of 12 per cent. W. W.

In line with the policy of the college of liberal arts in strengthening scholastic requirements to raise still higher the standards of the school, a new system of required attendance upon classes has been put into effect, which virtually abolishes the excuse system for absences. Students now are granted no excuses for miscellaneous reasons. Enforced absence which may be occasioned by participation in school contests such as athletics, debates and other interscholastic affairs will be considered. But the system has been tightened up, and excessive absences from now on carry the penalty of a loss of credits. j Purther details of the new plans for con all student affairs funds LAWRENCE 10 SPEAK ih Twentieth Century Club at the Y.

— — — — MANY USES ARE GIVEN MODERN BASEMENT Finds Favor as Den for Father or for Danc- ing Floor. ALSO CHILD’S PLAYROOM By LOUISE BARGLET. Below are given some dozen different and practi uses to which the base~ ment may be converted. or not a home is under- going any extensive remodeling, a base- ment may always be rehabilitated . If properly built a ment will be perfectly dry. If it is not dry and shows signs.of dampness at certain times of the year it can in most in- Stances be made into a dry place. It may need expert att®@tion and the Process may cost some money, but the rewards are more than proportionate to the expense. Statisticians claim, that the returns of the average home owner on his céllar investment, both from realty valuation and domestic convenience, are far too small, His expenses in building the basement have been high. Yet most basements are used only to harbor the boiler, the coal bin, the laundry ap- paratus and perhaps as storage for a lot of desultory articles. Much Usable Space. The space occupied by heating ap-“ paratus, laundry equipment and coal bin absorbs less than 50 per cent of the average basement. This leaves 50 per cent of usable space; space which costs real money at the present time and which should give due return on the financial investment. Modern manufacturers are turning Out machinery which is not only more efficient than ever before, but also much “easier” to look at. Take the different pieces of ma- chimery seen in the basement today; the washing machine, the ironer, the drier, the water heater, the laundry stove, the ice machine, and even the incinerator. They, none of them, are @& “blot on the landscape,” if one does not care to go to the expense of par- titioning the recreation area from the service portions.

If a man’s profession demands work at home the basement can mean more than a den; it can be a veritable work- shop or study and space used which would cost considerable if one had to go out and “rent it.” Occasionally one finds a family which has fitted up a basement room entirely separate and complete. It has installed radiation in it and uses it for a bedroom for unexpected ~ occasions. Or it may even be used as a maid's sit- ting room. One suburban mistress, who always seems to have amazing “luck” in Keep- ing a good maid, showed me such a sit- ting room when I went to her ‘house not long ago. It was very simply fur nished, pretty curtains at the window,» and a fiber rug on the floor.

Plans for five airplane tours of the United States and Canada, on which he will have contact with each of the 633 local real estate boards holding membership in the National Associa- tion of Real Estate Boards, were an- nounced by Harry H. Culver, of Los Angeles and Culver City, Calif., whose inauguration as president of the Na- tional Association of Real Estate Boards took place at the annual meeting of the organization, final sessions of whieh were held in Birmingham Thursday. On one of the five tours visits to Mexi- co City will be included. Culver states that he intends to give practically all of his time during the year to his duties as president of the association. In order to conserve time and make his air trips as efficiently as possible Culver has established an office in the plane which he has purchased for the tours. This- will be the first association office on record ever to be conducted in the air. The plane which Mr. Culver has bought especially for the association office is a Stinson-Detroiter, six-passen- ger, inclosed monoplane, with a J-6 Wright whirlwind 320-horsepower en- gine. Its average speed is from 125 to 150 miles an hour. Mr. Culver, during the past year, has made four conti- nental air flights in his own private air- plane, which likewise carried office equipment.

Six States Planning Realty License Laws Legislation to provide for real estate licemse laws such as are already in S built-in toilet, etc. ‘ ) EXHIBIT HOME force in 22 States, is expected to be in- troduced at the convening legislatures of a number of additional States, not- ably Kansas, Iowa, Rhode Island, Mary- land, Connecticut and Indiana, accord- ing to data regarding the extension and administration of license laws, com- piled by the National Association of Real Estate Boards. North Carolina, where a license law applying only to eight counties was passed in 1927, now has a plan before the convening State legislature to extend the law over the entire State. In a number of States where license laws are already in effect, it is pro- posed to amend the existing laws with a view to their better administration, The Utah State Realty Association is urging the State legislature, now in session ,to amend the existing license law, proposing that the administration be vested in a committee of three ex- perienced real,;estate men, rather than in the State securities commission, now charged with administering the law. Six Leading Brick Companies Combine Consolidation of six leading com- panies in the fire brick and refrac- tories manufacturing and fields, owning fifteen plants in Penn- sylvania, Ohio, Kentucky and Missouri, into one organization, known as North American Refractories Co. was an- nounced yesterday. The new company, which is organized under the laws of Delaware, will be the third largést of its kind in the United States. The units to be acquired by North American Refractories Co. include Ashland Fire Brick Co., of Ashland, Ky.; Crescent Refractories Co. Cur- wensville, Pa; Dover Fire Brick Co., Cleveland, Ohio; Elk Fire Brick Co., St. Marys, Pa.; the Furber Fire Brick Co., Furber, Mo., and Queen's Run Refractories Co., Inc., Lock Haven, Pa. All of the companies have been en- gaged in the fire brick and refractories business for some time, the oldest hav- ing been in operation for more than 75 years, and the youngest over 10. Capacity of the company’s fifteen plants is estimated at 155,000,000 selling BUDGETS ARE URGED FOR ALL ARCHITECT Annually in Orderliness of Business. USE OF TIME IS A FACTOR Prodigal of time and “money, —— tects in the United States waste at least 10 per cent of the $80,,000,000 earned annually by the profession through failure to apply sound busi- ness methods," according to Sdwin Bergstrom, treasurer of the American Institute of Architects. Discussing the architect’s buddget, he calis standardization of ure and accounting of the business of archi- tecture as very helpful to success. “Orderliness in design,” declares Mr. Bergstrom, “is , axiomatic with the architect. Orderliness in his business and in his tithe is not so fixed a virtue. Architecture is a very busy profes- sion. Without doubt there enter into it more of business and detail of Dusi- ness administration than enter into any other profession. It is not a true pro- fession in the sense that the other fine arts are professions. Depends On Others. “The musician, painter, and the sculptor create with their own hands their finished art, but the architect would make a sorry show if he should build his dreams. Of all professions, he alone must depend upon others to give form and substance to his art. Architecture is further differentiated from the true professions. The archi- tect creates his art to satisfy a definite need; the sculptor and painter to sat- isfy. their own imaginations. Thére must be definite need for his creation before the ‘architect can begin his work of art and simultaneously there must be furnished money, with and within which the architect must work. “Architecture is a collaborative pro- fession; a coordination of efforts .to create a work of art to fulfill a definite | need within a definite cost.

BELI URING the eomparatively short period that the audible screen has been in course of development, this department, from time to time, has emitted what it has hoped would prove to be wither- ing blasts, aimed at the pernicious custom of introducing theme songs.at points in the action of sound-pictures where theme songs have no busi- ness being introduced. My reiterated pleas for sanity on the part of the producers and direc: >» tors in this vital regard have not wholly failed to muster a reasonable numberof emphatic proponents to their support. Nefther have they been »? entirely unsuccessful in arousing the enthusiastic antagonism of a con- Fs siderable group who believe—and not altogether without tangible evi- - dence to cofroborate their view—that I am the one who is crazy. Possibly I have failed to make myself clear, The whole point of the thing, it seems to me, is this.

EDDIE LOWE IS BUT ONE AMONG A RARE GALAXY What screen devotee is there who does not remember, and with pleasure, the inimitable portrayal by Edmund Lowe of Sergt. Quirt in Raoul Walsh’s unforgettable Fox Film production, “What Price Glory?” Sergt. Quirt, hard-boiled marine, lifted Eddie Lowe from the handsome leading man type to a real honest-to- goodness character actor, and the trans- formation won him a host of new ad- mirers. It -was freely predicted that Lowe never would surpass that impersona- tion on the screen, but in due time along came “Dressed to Kill,” an Irving Cummings production, and again Lowe amazed his most ardent His Mile-Away Barry characterization in the underworld picture was a Gombi- nation of the handsome leading man, immaculately dressed, and the king of crookland, a wolf in shéep’s clothing. Reviewers seemed agreed that Lowe had reached the highest point of charac- terization in “Dressed to Kill,” but Lowe did not feel that way, and neither did Fox Films executives. They bided their time. Production was about to begin on the first feature length all-dialogue,drama to be made by Fox Movietone. It was “In Old Arizona,” based on a story by Tom Barry, from an original by O. Henry. “In Old Arizona” is a story of the romantic Southwest in the late '90s, the period before ‘standardization had erased its glamour and color. Sergt. Mickey Dunn is the role Edmund Lowe plays. Dating back twenty years from the period in which he played a marine in “What Price Glory,” it has even more color, more picturesq ueness. Warner Baxter plays the Cisco Kid, Dorothy Burgess, Tonia Maria, and a score of the leading film stars and fea- tured players are in the supporting cast. The stage portion of the Fox program will be an old-time jamboree, in the atmosphere of the picture, titled “Frontier Jubilee.” The gorgeous Fox muchachitas will be featured along with a group of cowboy clowns, the seven Candreza brothers, Dolores Cordova, held for a second week; the Arizona Quartet and other novel features. The Fox Grand Orchestra, under the | baton of Léon Brusiloff, will offer as | the overture “Serenade in Blue,” a special arrangement of a famed old melody, while the Fox Movietone News will present world events in sound and motion. A NEW TEAM OF -FUNMAKERS ARE SEEN AT EARLE Flippant Alice White and handsome, smiling Jack Mulhall are the featured costars of “Naughty Baby,” the First National-Vitaphone production now playing at the Earle Th ter. Miss White, the sensational flapper discovery of the past year in moviedom, made her screen starring debut in “Show Girl.” Then First National chose her to be fea- tured with the popular master of com- edy among male stars, Jack Mulhall. They prove to be one of the most in- teresting teams that has come to the screen for some time. “Naughty Baby” is a typical story of life in New York City and its surround- ing resorts, and it is directed with the zip and humor for which Merwyn Le- Roy, who also megaphoned “Harold Teen” and Colleen Moore's “Oh Kay,” is noted. Miss White is a check girl at the Ritzy Hotel. She is one of the girls of flapper face and figure who have champagne ideas on a home-brew in- come. Mulhall, as might be imagined, is the youthful heir to a fortune, and he provides the champagne’ possibili- ties. He is out gilding along the Great White Way with a broad brush, and Alice helps him. She doesn't stop at all at two-timing. She has three other boys on the string, an Irishman, a Jew and an Italian, very amusingly played by Andy Devine, Benny Rubin and Georgie Stone. What she doesn’t promote from them for her conquest of Mulhall is nobody’s busi- mess, for Andy works in a garage, and uncie’s pawn shop and can borrow jewels, and Stone is assistant to a modiste, and gets her to “loan” him her most gorgeous gowns. The story is breezy and replete with laughs. Thelma Todd, Doris Dawson, Fred Kelsey, James Ford and half a dozen other well-known players com- bine to make a notable cast. The supplementary program for the week will include a Vitaphone presen- tation, “The Alibi,” a; stirring dramatic laylet in which the title role is played Kenneth Harlan and in which he is supported by John Saintpolis and Rob- ert Elliott; “Small Town Rambles,” one of the latest Vitaphone short numbers, featuring Al Abbott: a beautiful color reel, entitled “Coloring the Stars,” and “The Three Mus- Warner Bazter in “In Old Arizona” —F'oz. a d 7 * as — Clara Bow , in “Wings” —Colum bia. | Buddy Rogers and Nancy Carroll in “Abie’s Irish Rose”—Metropolitan. can get swell cars; Benny works in his) concert overture, keteers,” by the Earle Concert Orches- tra, Daniel Breeskin conducting, — == A GUIDE TO THE PICTURES THIS WEEK.

STAR PLAYERS ABOUND IN AN UNUSUAL CAST Nancy Carroll, the popular Para- mount player, who essays the role of Rosemary in the picturization of Anne Nichols’ “Abie’s Irish Rose,” which is now the major screen attraction at the Metropolitan , Theater, will be heard singing the theme song, “Rosemary,’ in the Paramount picture. By virtue of the film's being synchronized with quality sound and chants, audiences are givén the opportunity to witness an exceptional performance. Miss Carroll is a product of the stage. Before she entered the motion pictures she appeared in several stage produc-~- tions in New York, where she danced and sang her way to recognition. Going to California as the “lead” in a New York production, she was given an opportunity to work in motion pic- tures. Her versatile ability gave her the prize role of the year in “Abie.” Not only will the audience hear her sing two Irish songs, but they will have an opportunity to see and hear her go through a waltz clog routine. The taps are distinct, and give an added thrill to the sequence. Included in the stellar cast is Charles “Buddy” Rogers, popular Paramount star, who assumes the role of Abie. Rogers’ rise to cinematic fame has been nothing short of sensational. A little over two years ago the star was totally unknown, and at the present time Rogers receives more “fan” mail than any other male star in motion pictures, a sure sign of movie fan acclaim. Another ster of stellar proportions is Jean Hersholt, who plays the rt of Solomon Levy, Abie’s father. is dra- matic characterization is one of the finest performances ever given by a screen actor. Others in the cast include J. Farrell MacDonald, Camillus Pretal, Nick Cog- ley, Ida Kramer and Bernard Gorcey. The film was directed by Victor Flem- ing, the “hit” director of Hollywood.

To my.judgment they seemed to .be superb achievements. I have also viewed about twenty short features produced at the Long Island studio, and I am delighted at their high qual- ity. “*"The Letter,’ which is to have its few weeks, is an outstanding example of a fine stage play being provided with a great cast and adapted for the films with taste, skill and fidelity. Jeanne Eagels, the star, has turned in a per- formance of which any actress on either stage or screen might be proud. The supporting cast includes. O. P.

His ac- quisition as the author of this star- ring vehicle is indicative of the im- portance with which the producer views the series of pictures to be made with Miss Claire. “Sis is the first time in the new art -i the talking picture where a drama- tist of international celebrity has been secured to write an original play, and for a specified star with whose talents and personality he is well acquainted The association of the two names is a happy one and assures an extraordinary importance for Miss Claire’s premiere as a Pathe star. F It will not be the first time for Mise Claire to appear in a Maugham play This last spring she registered her most recent New York success in “Our Bet- ters,” originally produced in America by John D. Williams at the Hudson Theater. This play was rated by Thom- as H. Dickinson, editor of Chief Con- temporary Dramatists, as one of the great modern comedies worthy of a place beside the works of Schnitzler. d’Annunzio, Rostand and Gorki. The latest work of Maugham's to reach the American stage is “The Flame,” which recently ran at the Henry Miller Theater in New York. W. Somerset Maugham was “born in Paris in 1874 and educated in England and at Heidelberg, studying for a medical career. His first play, “Schiff- bruchig,” was produced in Berlin in 1901. He has written and had produced ‘ over 25 plays,.the majority of which -Jack Straw,” with John Drew; “— have played in both England and ca. Among them were “Lady Prederick,” with Ethel Barrymore; “The Land of Promise,” “Our Betters,” “Mrs. Dot,” “East of Suez” and “The Con- stant Wife,” also with Ethel Barrymore as the star. He is the only writer who has ever nad four dramatic successes playing at > ot — _ > J one time in the London theaters. His versatility is shown in the fact, that not only is he a great playwright, but alsO @ docjor, lawyer, novelist and short story writer. As a novelist he has published some ten novels.

His most famous novel, “Of Human Bondage,” is reckoned a modern classic. During the World War Mr. Maugham served as doctor in France. In his sense of the dramatic, the depth of his ——— vivid power of expression and excellence of play construction, Mr. Maugham is excelled by no living playwright of any nation- ality.

Wellman. He, himself, was a bold “knight of the air,” serving in the Lafayette Escadrille of France during the World War. The author of “Wings,” in its second week at Loew’s Columbia, John Monk Saunders, conceived the idea for his story from his personal experiences as an aviator during the Worid War. He was a Rhodes scholar who did his term at Oxford. Here is a flyingman who can handle a pen as well as he can handle a joy-stick. The producer of “Wings” was Lucian Hubbard, who brought to this picture that flair for thrillful finesse that characterized his work in all of the Zane Grey pictures. He is a producer with an uncannily accurate sense of values and he has seen to it that the desired elements of thrills, romance, spectacle, whimsy, humor and origi- nality have been woven into “Wings.” The cameramen of “Wings,” the courageous crankers who risked their lives that this epic might be captured for all time, were led by Harry Perry. In some instances they were strapped over the engine hood, a few inches from the death-dealing propellor; at other times they were strapped out on the wings of a machine while the pilot executed rolls, loops and flipflops. The players in “Wings” compose a group unexcelled for excellence. Charles Rogers and Richard Arlen head the list as the daring young fliers who rake the air in their search for the biggest things in life. Clara Bow is delightfully cast as “the little girl next door.” Jo- byna Ralston is “the other girl.” El Brendel and “Gunboat” Smith supply the humor and Gary Cooper, Julia Swayne Gordon, Henry B. Walthall, Arlette Marchal and many others are also in the cast. Rounding out the program there are M-G-M’ News, the Fox Movietone News and the Columbia Concert Orchestra, under the direction of Claude Burrows. TALKING FILMS RECLAIM MANY FROM FADE-OUT It is beginning to look like Old Home Week around the New York and Holly- wood studios of the big movie makers since the d-re ucing pictures have made it essential that the film stars speak English without a Serbian, shop girl or stockyards accent. The call is. going out along Broad- way, through the vaudeville circults and the booking agencies, and players who had their brief spells of stardom Jin the days before Chaplin was dis- covered are being called back from the speaking stage and even from retire- ment. Reason? They know how to open their mouths without sounding like train announcers and waitresses. Photoplay Magazine in its current is- gue lists the most noteble of these comebacks since the silent drama found. its tongue. Robert Elliott is one of the most notable. Elliott made his picture debut along with Bill Hart—aend that was many years ago. He was popular and he was act aye tke, polish ir and col eiks, ed hair and col- lar-ad profiles. And Elliott didn’t have any of those. He wasn't pretty enough, so he went back to character parts on the stage, where enunciation counted for something. ; Then came sound. The new crop of film players went panicky trying to find their voices, if: any, and some one fe- membered Elliott. : Pauline Prederick left Hollywood only a few years ago. The producers thought she was through and so did she. Now she has made a triumphant return in the spea films and has been signed for a whole series of Vitaphone dramas. Bessie Barriscale was a star when the movies were pioneering and hasn't been seen on the screen these many years. But she, too, is back on the strength of her voice. Her first appearance is in Pathe’s “Show Folks.” Mildred Harris, once Mrs. Chaplin, is another who is returning to the screen after several years of absence because she knows how to speak her lines. And Bessie Love, who had been in vaudeville for several years, is in Hollywood again, signed to an ample contract. Unlike most of the foreign stars who have\been hard hit by the sound pic- tures, Antonio Moreno, who speaks perfect and liquid English, is finding them a tonic, reports the Photoplay article. His popularity was doing a quiet fadeout when First National dis- covered that he had been hiding a splendid speaking voice all these years. : — | SCREEN LIFE IN HOLLYWOOD | By WADE WERNER. OLLYWOOD.—Now that the or- ganized publicity men of the movies have picked thirteen film ingenues deemed worthy to be called the baby stars of 1929, it becomes apparent that it will take a more than ordinary gift of prophecy to fore- tell how many of the “lucky 13” ac- tually will reach & full-fledged star-E dom. In past years the problem has been far simpler. The fact that the 1926 baby star list in- cluded such names as Mary Astor, Joan Crawford, Dolores| £ Del Rio, Janet Gay- lf # nor and Dolores? £G Costello shows that publicity mer can be good judges of star material. But this year an unprecedented situation exists. The movies are in a turmoil of transition from silence to sound. Singers like Ai Jolson are crowding into the topmost screen positions, and in nonmusical films many of the most important talk- ing roles are being given to players from the stage. Singing Lessons? Silent stars of the first rank are wor- ried. How, then, predict chances of success for thirteén youngsters just be- ginning to show promise on a screen that next year may be an entirely dif- ferent medium from what it is now? None of the 1929 baby stars was chosem for her singing voice; yet it may be that singing heroines will be getting the big money next year. Only one Broadway stage ingenue (Helen Twelvetrees) was included among the thirteen; yet more and more successful actresses from the stage are being signed, | i J X hh A 1 1) i rs ; ! 9 il —/ 7 tr 7 — =e Not Entirely Silent. More than half of the new baby stars ‘have had some experience be- fore the microphone, and at least two of them are being heard now in talk- ing pictures already released Hill in “Interference” and Josephine Dunn in “The Singing Fool”). So the prophets of calamity may yet have to admit that the 1929 list was the best ever picked by the Wampas. Nevertheless, it is significant to mote that the only studio producing noth- ing but talking pictures (Warner Brothers) offered no baby star candi- dates for election this year. (Doris | “= Celluloid College. A motion picture university with the world as its campus is the ambi- tious aim of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. The immediate sched- ule of the acad- emy calls only for a university course in photoplay ap- preciation, with lectures by Doug- | las Fairbanks, Er- nest Lubitsch, Milton Sills, Will- iam CC. de Mille and other leaders of the film indus- try. Ultimately it is hoped to offer talking-screen Jec- tures on all im- portant subjects by world authori- ties on those sub- jects. One of the scientific authori- tiles the academy has in mind, for instance, is Dr. Rob- ert A. Millikan. discoverer of the cos- mic ray and authority on the struc- ture of the atom. Academic Recognition. The lecture schedule for the course in photoplay appreciation already has been completed, and the original lec- tures will be delivered at the Univer- sity of Southern California by the lec- turers in person. Later they will be recorded on film and sent to universi- tles everywhere, The student who en- rollg in the photoplay course at what- ever university he may be attending, thus will hear and see the same lecture attended in Los Angeles by students of the University of Southern California. Not only screen celebrities but mem- bers of the regular university faculty will be heard. Rufus B. Von Klein- Smid, the president, will talk on “Pho- toplay and the University,” Dean K. T. Waugh, of a College of Liberal Arts, will discuss * Social Utility of the Photoplay,” and Dr. H. Wildon Carr, head .of the philosophy department, will lecture on the “Photoplay and the Esthetic Culture of the World.” Academic Language. | Nowhere in the academy’s prospectus are as close as its language the word which 650,000,000 film fans forced into the dictionary. The omis- sion doubtless was intentional; how- ever, there are some people mean enough to think that before pic - goers in general change over to “pho- toplay” Clara Bow will be lecturing on the fourth dimension. AT LEAST THIS IS WHAT THEIR P. A. INVENTS What were the childhood amibitions of some of our most famous screen stars and were they ever realized? In most cases there comes a negative e films began em- | answer John Gilbert comes honestly by his great love for the screen. He played his first role on the stage when he was but @ year oli under Eddie Foy. He fluc- tuated between pictures, in which he had his first experience as an extra, and was, among other things, a rub- ber salesman and newspa reporter. His ambition was to be a Western star. “To be a fireman and wear a.coat of blue \was the ambition of Buster Keaton, famous comedian, although he was born in the theatrical business. The closest he came was to chase fire wagons. Norma Shearer wanted to be an Arc- tic explorer, To be a gorgeous lady, clothed in beautiful gowns and robed in silks, was the idle dream of Greta Garbo, and, al- though she may now realize her ambi- tion, she had no thought of the screen at the time. Marion Davies seemed destined to become an athletic star of some sort. She loved swimimng and it was pri- marily through this sport that she was discovered. She had her picture taken on the beach while vacationing in Florida, a New York producer saw it on the screen and she was soon per- suaded to abandon the stage, from which she eked a living. It would be difficult indeed to pic- ture Lionel Barrymore in a profession other than the stage or screen, but he long cherished an ambition -to become a physician and surgeon. SOUND PUTS A CRIMP IN THE PLAYER’S EGO Temperament—or temper, if you will —hes been increasingly unpo with the producers out Holl way for some years. The u-y is past when a star’s box-office power could be built up by telling the public how she had to have lotus leaves for breakfast or harpsichord accompaniments for her love scenes, Things toe where — those g ingly—raising an unholy row if cameraman’s shirt was off color or a ‘clever juvenile made the star look ea bit weak. Then came the talkies, and a solu- tion! “The talking pictures have already accomplished one §& ndous feat,” says James R. Quirk, editor of Photo- play Magazine, in the current issue of that monthly. “They have completely smashed what is drolly called ‘tempera- ment’ in the studios. “No longer can Pifi set down and begin throwing the pieces eat her director. In the microphone such a display of childish insanity would sound like the second battle of the Marne. “Even such a gesture of annoyance as leg-slapping is out. One recent day at Paramount, while @ talki scene was on, Clive Brooék smacked his leg, and the resulting noise came over like the explosion of a Big Bertha. “Whatever else the talkies have done, they have piped down the pettish and petulant.” Andy Devine, fotmer football star, has joined the cast of the college pic- ture, “Hot Stuff,” which stars Alice White. Devine played in the “Col- legian” series. ⸗ —— 3 7 - — = - — — ++ WITHOUT EQUAL* FSTat ij} Y_LOEWS PALACE NOW PLAYING A METRO-GOLDWYN -MAYER, SOUND PICTURE NDIRMIA SIRIITA IRIEIR in the story of a gold-digger who lost her heart to a small town hick . and liked it. “A LADY THE BEAUTIES — scar, . “Tight-fittihg, hairline skull caps are tear the) NOT ENTIRELY WITHOUT FLAW If you suffer from the common de- lusion that all feminine movie stars are the physically perfect beauties they appeer on the screen, then you are due for a surprise, For many of the most popular styles now being worn by women all over America were originally designed to hide or minimize defects in face or figure of the reigning screen queens. This is the disillusioning revelation made by Lois Shirley in Photoplay, after interviews with the costumers who dress the leading women stars both on and off the screen. “For instance, the wide Greta Garbo collar was created because the Swedish Cue "une See SS SS Se —— ee eee worn to cover the fact that many of the stars have heads too big for their bedies. And you will never see Florence Vidor, who is by popular vote among the fashion dictators the best gowned, woman on the screen, wearing'a brim- less hat. Her face is too long and thin and her jaw is broad.” Hollywood and not Paris is the domi- nant influence in the creation of American styles today, asserts Miss Shirley, pointing to the incident of the Garbo collar which first was copied from the American screen and repro- |" duced in a Paris style opening months after the star had worn it in the studio. Then there is the case of the bouf- fant gown designed for Leatrice Joy no less than six years ago. That tight- waisted, billowing-skirted creation was a jolting departure from the skimpy styles of the time, but the picture popularized it, and today nearly. all the evening gowns coming over from Paris embody the idea in some varia- tion. Asther Signed. Announcement from Metro-Goldwyn- Mayer that the contract of Nils Asther, one of the most discussed of the lead- ing men of the screen, had been re- newed, sets at rest rumors that he might return to Sweden, or that he is planning to retire from acting and de- vote himself to the pastime of being a countr# tleman.

— eee Stage ¢ _ FOOTLIGHTS AND SHADOWS ~ By JOHN J. DALY UTSIDE of the Belasco, the old-line theatergoers of Mr. Washing- ton’s village had a week off—and how they suffered! What to 46* There was no going to the National. It was closed. Poll’s ‘was dark as night. So the merry villagers had to figure some other way of spending the evening hours. The good scouts of this department, the unpaid messengérs who bring all the news of the Rialto and way streets, tabulated some of the activities as follows: A NIGHT AT HOME, lolling in the occasional chair in front of the oc- casional fire in the fireplace; father nodding away, the evening paper or @ book on his lap, a snore now and then, and mother sewing. This, of course, is a picture of an old-fashioned couple. A NIGHT WITH THE RADIO—the old man fishing for distance sta- Sons, the good wife wishing to high heavens he'd keep one place long * gnough to hear the finish of a song; or & jazz band; or whatever it is Whey have these nights on the radio. A NIGHT IN THE NIGHT CLUBS—with every moment bringing the possibilities of a raid, and no raid; and mineral water bought at the price of prewar bourbon. Oh, those nights in the night clubs! The extra added attraction, of coursé, is the thorning after—and that deep, dark brown taste: with loud calls for water, and more water, right out of the old spigot, at the mere cost of $5.35 a year water tax to the District gov- ernment—a cheap way to wash away the glories of an expensive evening. A NIGHT AT THE MOVIES—going from one to another in the hopes of finding just what one wants when one wants what one wants and can pot find just what one does want; whether it be serious stuff, or fragile farce, custard pie comedies or the all-talkies buzzing away in those pompous, sonorous spasms of dialogue, and the handsome at- tendants at the door and the ushers, al] done up like Alsatian princelings, or disappointed West Pointers, from the carriage starter to the ticket | taker. Nice boys, but why the uniforms?—and no war under the Kel- logg Treaty. Al) in a spirit of style. And over at Poli’s there is Curtis, the carriage starter, namesake of the next Vice President, with a long military coat modeled after the one Hindenberg wore at the Hohenzol- lern and Hapsburg ceremonies, when the Hapsburgs and the Hohenzol- lérns were all sauerkraut and pigs’ knuckles, in the olden days. Uni- forms? Uniforms! What memories they recall. A NIGHT ON NINTH STREET—with the signs of chop suey joints, and sauntering sailors sailing down the grand thoroughfare in search for Jand-lubbing, a foxy term of the intelligenzia that means anything that begins with “w,”’ such as wine, women and I wouldn’t wonder, There are On Ninth street flash-backs of the old Barbary Coast district in San ‘Francisco, the Barbary Coast that flourished back in the days when “there was gold in them thar hills,” and men from the wide open spaces came to throw their pokes on the baf, and order drinks for the house, It takes more than a night to see Ninth street—from the Avenue to Gee, on both sides. This comes, of course, from the Patent Office being there; but it doesn’t have a patent on everything. A NIGHT WITH THE BOYS—It isn’t every night that a married man - Gan get out, nor every married man that gets out after he has once had -- @ night out. In the well-regulated household there are those nights “when the mistress of all she surveys goes to lodge meeting; or to the | um—that ig getting to be quite the thing—or to the sewing Circle, or what they have, Then it is that father gets his night out, The theater dark, and mother and father going their several ways, father had = hls with the boys—the old pow-wow in the little back room at the cluh, with the regaling of stories and the reminiscenes, and the ride home, rward, in the taxicab—mother having the car, Well, they don’t often, these nights with the boys; but they’re worth it. — ge NIGHT WITH THE BRIDGE HOUNDS—and what a night!

After two solid seasons in New York, one in Chicago, and with successful road-show companies creating a high pitch of enthusiasm throughout the land, “Sally” is at last released for stock, and Mr. Cook is one of the first managers to secure this entertainment for Washington theater-goers. The story is a _ typical Cinderella theme, of a young walf of the alley who is fairly hurtled through a series of thrilling and hilarious sequences to fame and stardom in the Follies, and incidentally into the urms of her prince charming. The comedy role made fam- ous by Leon Errrol and to be played here by Robert Capron—that of the rubber-legged waiter in the alley cab- aret who later turns out to be a duke in disguise—is unique in its droll hu- mor. Ziegfeld, the famous producer of spectacular presentations, has put into “Sally” all the clean artistry, and all of the mirth-provoking hilarity that he could find. The book and lyrics are by Guy Bolton and Clifford Gray, and the music by Jerome Kern, with special music for the butterfly ballet by Victor Herbert. Thelma Parker will play the title role, while Renee Hamilton has an equally important role as Rosie, the love-evading young manicurist. Frank Gallagher is a oe suited to the role of the modern Prince Charming Lee Daley, in addition to directing the show, will lend his —— telents to the role of Otis Hoo agent responsfble for ward Metcalfe, Rosa ~ hits of “On With “Silver “ “Little Church Around the Corner.” Mr. Cook is planning an elaborate costume and scenic production for “DIE WALKURE” ° TOBE GIVEN BY GERMAN OPERA e German Grand a whieh made its initial ash- ington’s music public at —* Theater last Wednesday afternoon, under the management of Mrs. Wilson-Greene, with a performance of “Das Rhein- old,” will resume. the presentation of agner’s immortal trilogy, “Der Ring. des Nibelungen,” at the same theater om Monday evening, February ¢, at 7:45 o'clock, with a performance of “Die Walkure,” in the most approved Wagnerian tradition. “Das Rheingold,” the opera presented last Wednesday, is the prologue to the Wagnerian “ " eycle, while “Die Wailkure” is the first part of the tril- ogy.

A CELEBRATED SYMPHONY BY BOSTON OUTFIT Serge KEoussevitzky announces the program for the coming visit of the Boston Symphony Orchestra to Wash- ington for its concert in Poli’s Theater on Wednesday afternoon, January 30, at 4:30. The symphony of the occasion will be the second of Brahms in D major. Of Brahms’ four symphonies, this one somber moods found in many pages of the first and fourth. Brahms, the poet and romanticist, never found such noble expression as in this masterly score, Itg themes are the inspiration of the great melodist, and in, this re- spect this symphony alone places him beside Mozart and Schubert. The per- formance of this symphony at the hands of Koussevitzky is considered as one of the most eloquent achieve- ments of the great orchestra under The program will open with Bee- thoven’s famous overture to “‘Leonore” No. 3. This score is particularily known by the trumpet calls played off stage, describing the deliverance of the im- prisoned hero in Goethe’s drama. Erik Satie, the French composer, who died three years ago, wrote.a succession of piano pleces, entitled “ nope- dies." ' Two of these, as delicately orchestrated by Debussy, will be played on this program. signifies ritual dances by naked youths about statues of the gods, performing slow, rhythmed movements. The Spanish rhapsody of Maurice Ravel, foremost of living French com- posers, will also be played. The com- posers of France have long been in- by the characteristic dance rhythms and melodies of the land across the nees, and Ravel hes most eloquently revealed this infiu- ence in his “Rapsodie Espagnole.” The master colorist has scored in magnifi- cent orchestral dress such characteris- and the “Malaguena.” The suite ends with a festal movement entitled “The Plays for Bank Clerks the city, London's financial district/ are to witness plays on @ movable stage in the Church o es — ws rh, — * F ** a — ? — = q aks Pays: ree wil * * —— el re. ane 4 : Ap s - 2 * Sa : _ Pre ey oe 4 i & ae fo 4 . 4 a * a BOYS om RS . fue ” . nail br * & Pe sy Pad’ Bee. « te ae ; * —— — * ~~ wag , * * F ag J “Gymnopedies” | “Lendon; Jan. 26 {AP.).—Workers in/;| THE WASHINGTON: P PARENT-TEACH — — a — — OST: SUNDAY, JANUARY 27, 1929. - All material for this column must | be in the State Office, Room 101, Bur- lington Hotel, by the Wednesday pre- ceding the Sunday on which publica- tion is desired. With the aid and cooperation of the superintendent of schools, the District of Golur.dia Congress of Parents and Teach- ers held a one-cay in- stitute on the Parent- Teacher movemcnt in senior and junior high schovls Tues- day in the Franklin Administration Building. The pringipals of every senior and junior high school received a letter, from the State office ouilding outlin- ing this conference, and Dr. Ballou also sent a communication to each one in- dorsing the project. [In his letter, Dr. Ballou said: “I trust that each senior and junior high school will be repre- sented by one or more persons at this conference, which promises to be of real interest.” Mrs. E. C. Roe, field secretary of the National Congress of Parents and Teachers, conducted this conference, and discussed, the tmporiance of high school parent-teacher associations in the educatioal field. The State Parent-Teacher president, Mrs. Giles Scott Rafter, oresided at the conference. Dr. Ballou extended greet- ings to those présent and gave the in- stitute his unqualified approval. ‘Mr. Kramer, assistant suparintendent of schools, was also present, thus demon- strating his interest in the movement. Arranged by President. The conference had been arranged by the State president, assisted by Mrs. Andrew Stewart, State chairman of High School Parent-Teacher Associa- tions and Mrs. E. C. Roe. Mrs: Roe is ably fitted to conduct such an institute as che has spent the last seven years conductinz credit courses On the parent-teacher muve- ment in colleges and universities, and holding conferences with parents and educators in all parts of America. Mrs. Roe emphasized the importance of by-laws as a measure of growth. She said that the membership of every high school association must include fathers, mothers, teachers and repre- sentatives of the student body. The high school association must work with the student body not for them, so that the association should bring into a —* union ts, teachers and pu- “Room Representatives,” the value of real hospitality, and “Membership Par- ticipation” were discussed at length.

The guiding principles of the National Congress of Parents and Teachers were briefly outlined showing this great tion to be nonsec- tarian, non tical and noncommercial.

One indignant man bawled out that Roose- velt would have braved’ any storm on such a day. It was a compliment to Roosevelt's Howard Taft for his wise and sensible de- cision to protect himself and the numerous members of his party. Looking backward down the line of our Presidents we find that William Henry Harri- son was the unfortunate victim of another disagreeable inauguration day. He was a very popular man and a great favorite with the people. John Quincy Adams says in his diary that his inauguration was celebrated with demonstrations of popular feeling unex- ampled since that of Washington in 1789. The historic “Tippecanoe” of campaign days and all the log cabin insignia continued throughout the inauguration and made of the parade a particularly colorful and happy af- fair. Gen. Harrison refused a magnificent carriage constructed by his admirers for his ride to the Capitol, and insisted on riding a horse instead. The crowd gathered for the inauguration was the largest yet seen in Washington and in.order to give the spec- tators their fill of the log cabins, banners and bright regalia in the parade, the procession marched and countermarched. for.two hours up and down the Avenue beforé Téaving its hero at the Capitol. The day was unusually cold and bleak with a chilly wind blowing. Gen, Harrison was exposed to such Inclemen- cles for almost an hour and a half, while he delivered his address and all during the trip to the Capitol and later to the White House. His health was severely undermined, by * wae ROT.

In a short time he was taken ill the popular “Tippe- after his accession to exposure. with pneumonia and canoe”’ died a month office. It was said at the time of Taft’s inaugura- tion that the weather was the worst since Grant’s time 32 years before, and that’ was very, very bad weather. Paraders and spec- tators shivered throughout Grant’s inaugural parade. Guests at the ball held that night in the north wing of the Treasury, while reason- ably comfortable throughrst the evening, were the victims of the /orest sort of ar- rangements for the care ox their wraps. Hun- dreds who were unforunate enough to have intrusted them to the unskilled laborers of the Treasury Department who had charge of the checking, were forced to make their way home on a bitterly cold night without any protection, coats and hats having been lost and misplaced wholesale. The Government would have been in a bad way if it had been legally responsible for the illness and suffere ing not to say bad tempers which resulted from such treatment, Even the well-known Horace Greeley lost his copyrighted white beaver hat and was forced to go home bare- headed. The checking accommodations for Grant’s second ipauguration were all that could te desired, but, sad to relate, there were no wraps to check. To accommodate the lar«e crowds, a temporary structure had been erected in Judiciary Square. Without warn- ing, the thermometer descended precipitously to 4 degrees below zero. There wag no heat in the building, and the guests wore their Re aN. 2. —J heirs ee % Copyrigntea Dy National rnOoto Co. office without. the harassment of storm, and (above) a-reminder of the Rareback” that — the Taft ipengeral ceremonies. he Washington 0 The ride through —— —— ‘wil Curtis, as will be seen from this view of his coats throughout the evening. Their misery was beyond description, A hot supper might have given them temporary relief; but that meal was described as a “‘cold collation” and afforded small comfort to those who had spent $20 a ticket to enjoy themselves. ~ We are further indebted to John Quincy Adams’ diary for a’ description of another disagreeable and very wet. inauguration, that of James K. Polk. We aretold: “There was a procession of ten or eleven military com- nal: who escorted Mr. Polk and Mr. Tyler, who rode together in an open carriage from Coleman’s Nationa! Hotel to the Capitol. They first assembled in the Senate cham h large assemblage of umbrellas, for it was raining hard all the time.” There is an. in- teresting painting in existence of the ap- proach to the Capitol from the west d iring Polk’s inauguration, . Hundreds | are seér plodding up th to the Capitol Building. Heads and * not in evidence. From beneath the gr tae of row after row of umbrélias can be seen the gentlemen with their tight trousers and long- _skirted overeoats, and the tight-waisted, big- sleeved figures of the ladies with voluminous skirts trailing in the water. An occasional dainty ankle is indiscreetly exposed by its owner, who tries desperately to protect her gown from further damage on the wet steps— and the rain pours down! Scattered among the disagreeable inanugu- ral days there have been, we admit, some blessed with fine weather, but why, after all, should the ceremonies take place when Washington is notoriously at its worst. We have gorgeous springs here. The beauties of the cherry-blossom season are known all over the world. Is there any good reason except precedent why inaugurations could not be held on, say, April 4 or May 4% Why should the hundreds of thousands of visitors who swarm to the Capital City on or before March 4 pay for their enthusiasm by illmess and dis- comfort caused by the uncertainties and in- _tlemencies of our March weather? The ques- tion has come before Congress on many dif- ferent occasions, when a bill to adopt a new date would pass one house only to be blocked by the other, Politically, I presume, March 4 is as good a date as any for the inauguration of our Presidents, but for the sake of the chief executives themselves and on behalf of the well being and pleasure of the Capital's guests we are strongly in favor of a date when the weather in Washington will at least be reasonably fair. < eats te Oe ie * * R pi San te A —* Ra ie —— — aa * - - ve * —* 8 — ⸗ —— “RE s&s wt . * * J * x 8 — 8 x it eel - « , . . .

I'll come over day after tomorrow if you don’t mind. I'm going hunting on Grouse Meadows with Mattie’s brother in the morning.” He held out his hand. “I’m sure glad I met you; you've given me a lot to think about.” She stood looking after him as he crashed through the underbrush and disappeared in the direction of the river. Then she went back to her canvas chair and sat looking at the half-fin- ished sketch. “He's almost too good to be true,” she mused in conclusion to a certain line of disturbing mental comment. oe . + * — — “Why, certainly, Stephen. bring him along.

You'll never hear me sing until my voice is—what 1 told you then I thought it was” “And if you fall short of that? Must I never hear it?” “No. I'm sentimental about it.” “Suppose you fail?” “I shan’t fail.” She looked deep into his blue, serious eyes in an effort to gauge the stcre of fortitude that lay behind them. A sudden wave of panic—some- thing almost maternal—swept over her at the thought of the broken fragments of his faith scat- tered along the road. — “You might lose your voice, she said. “That is, of course, possible. But if 1 do I can always go back to the farm. I didn’t burn my bridges behind me.” “It would be pretty hard, wouldn't it?” “Only because it would take me 3,000 miles away from you.” ““You don’t think I'd fit into the picture with a sunbonnet and a milkpail?” “I think you're too sensible to fly in the face of providence,” he repiied; “love is too fine a thing to gamble with.” She managed to suppress a gasp. “Which means that 1 may consider myself en- gaged to you-—if you make good?” They had been forced into a corner by the jostling of the other dancers His arm relaxed from her waist, and came to rest upon her shoulder. 2 C4 mee ee ee —— A ee — — oe THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, JANUARY 27, 1929. — ean le ne A that had carried her to success over the spiked walls of family objections, the thing that had worn down the iron. will of her New England father, had won recognition and acclaim from & swarm of contumelious relatives-—Faith She knew that in Peter, like in herself, burned that immortal fire—gentus.

She paused before the fireplace, above which hung a large canvas of a giant redwood. “Tf he’s conceited,” she mused, “he'll think— no, I won't take it down. It'll be a sort of a test!” He arrived with Stephen promptly at 8:30. Peter Conrad had released her han He stood looking at her with his frank, blue eyes. She knew she was being weighed by the shifting values of two years. “One of us«has traveled a long way since then,” he said softly. : ' “And the goilng—has it been rough?” she asked. “Well,” he replied, “from Mattie Summers to Signor Chantroni there were a few detours.” “©, you're studying with Chantroni?” The interest in her eyes deepened to reapect. “I was until last week.

Bottom shelf in the pantry.” “You've not told me why you didn’t look me up sooner,” she said, casting about for a safe topic and picking the most dangerous one. “There were several reasons,” he replied. “At an art shop in Madison avenue I priced one of your paintings. The dealer seemed fairly sane,” he added quizzically. “I see. Yov thought that in scratching me you'd find a snob?” — ; Her agitation was throwing her into @ panic. The young singer stood looking down at her with that same old expression of frank surprise. “T wonder why you want me to believe that you think so?’ he said. “I merely did not wish to give you any reason to regret the generous im- pulse that was prompted by your interest in me two years ago.” He spoke with the precise deliberation of a foreigner who has just learned the nice shadings of the English language. It gave him charm and distinction, «nd also, for some unknown reason, added to her discomfiture. “And you didn’t find my letter?” she asked. His gaze shifted to the painting. “O, yes, I did.” From his pocket he drew a familiar looking en- velope. She glanced at it hurriedly. “I wag called back to New York the day after our talk,” she explained. “And now tell me ebout your hopes and aspirations—and fears, if any,” she added as if by-an afterthought. ' “Fears?” she repeated; then dismissea the no- tion by silence. Presently he said: ‘What aspira- tions I have are due to you. My hopes, too, con- cern you.” “I’m afraid you're giving me too much credit,” she said, lightly. although she could fee] her heart hammering in her temples. ; He looked at her long and steadily. “I've thought of you more or less constantly for the last two years.” he said; “probably because of that mocking light with which you hid the truth in your eyes. I appeared to you then as a good deal of a simpleton. It may surprise you to know that my thouglits about you were—not much dif- ferent—when you tried to make me believe you were painting only to make money, My know!l- edge of art was less than vague, and it is not ‘much more than that now, but the sincerity of your work gave you away, even to mie. “I had not intended to see you unti] 1 hed made good. but when I found I had to go to Europe, I put'myself in the way of this invitation tonight through our mutual friend, Barry.” He lowered his voice. “I met him at a party one night last week. He was indulging in his favorite pastime—drinking highbalig and ‘extolling your virtues, and gave a very good imitation of being engaged to you.” His eyes strayed to her ringless left hand resting on the arm of the chair. His cuperh essurance was bewildering, but it' was also subtly thrilling.

She came near hating him just then, but he seemed so totally oblivious - of the shambles he had made of her feelings that she was left utterly demoralized. | “Peter,” she said between her teeth, “you're getiing away with murder!” Before he left she had agreed to see him the following night He took hér quite shamelessly to one of those little basement rendezvous of the village where the music is very gay and the food very sad. She hadn’t been inside one since her ———— when she made two-color posters iu a McDougal street attic, and had tried quite earnestly to be a Bchemian, even after coming to the conclusion that her witch-burning «uncestors had_ marked her at birth with intolerance. He was unaware of her acute distress at being pre © on and stared at as a rsonage. His childlike self-assurance and frank delight at hav- ing her for a dinner parther left her utterly de- fenseless. He was like some great ingenpuous St. Bernard shaking itself after a bath, sure of its welcome. She marveled at his ability to extract enjoyment from the simplest things, and ended up by being seriously smitten with the same virus. In her final summing up of the evening, when her reading light at last capitulated to the dawn, she knew’ she'd probably marry him and think forevermore in terms of baby food, which was, perhaps, after all, a sort of poetic justice, since her early advertising posters had written its cal- ories to the sky She made up her mind not to see him the fol- lowing day. so when he called up at noon and ‘told her that, as he had some business to attend to in the neighborhood of Columbus Circle, he wouldn't be at liberty until 2 o’cloek, she put her hat on and Waited for him on a bench near the Maine monument from 15 minutes to 2 until 10 minutes past, and was rewarded with an invita- tion to lunch at e seif-serve restaurant and a stroll in Central Park. She would have committed murder for less. Instead, she found herself horribly content, which infuriated her further. The crowning indignity came when he took her for a row on the lake. She submitted with a feeling of kinship for cer- tain dark gentlemen who make barratry and the scuttling. of ship an avocaticn. When he became involved in a playful aquatic battle with a bluejacket and his girl in another boat, she merely squealed with delight, and felt am impulse to kiss Judy O'Grady while they were both being nicely soaked to their historic skins. The four. days thr* remained until! h.s departure for Italy were spent in doing very old things in a very old and orthodox manner that had all the flavor. of Argonautic adventure. When, late in the evening before the day of his salling, he took leave of *er at the door of the apartment house, it occurred to her that he had never even Kissed her It also occurred to her, as she reviewed their amazing five days, ‘at she, herself, had been, while not actually the aggressor, at least very much of an accessory before the fact. She pressed the button of the automatic lift with a thumb that flattened under suc‘ained and thoughtful pres ure. Well, she decided, it’d be all over tomorrow. She'd see him off and run down to Bermuda for a few weeks and ‘‘eed her onions! Nevertheless, she walked up the steamer’s gang- plank half an hour before sailing time the next morning, like a prisoner going to execution. His stateroom companion, a young, dark man with tragic eyes,-was bidding good-by to a slim girl who wept quite frankly as he led her out on deck. Janet felt suddenly weak, and the smile she tried to muster for Peter was somewhat damaged in transit. They looked at one another soberly for a moment, then she wilted to his arms like any starved and abandoned thing. His kisses fell upon her burning eyelids, strong and cool, and upon her Hps gently and with the tenderness of an Old sweet song. She didn’t go to *ermuda. In fact, she hardly left her studio at al) for fear of missing the mail carrier. In the 24 months’ correspondence that ensued she followed hig progress with the wondering eyes of a child watching a comet which, it has been told, will not be visible again during the child's lifetime. Not once did he, himself, exhibit the slightest amazement. When e was chosen to sing minor roles at Scala the very first season, he merely asked her if she didn’t think the prac- tice might be for him!

Forty-eight hours later wind and pressure fell. We had saved the ship, but all hands were exhausted. Through it dil I kept wondering where on earth Peary and his Eskimos were. | A few days later I happened to be on deck and saw a black fi ure in the west coming slowly over the ice. It turned out to be one of the Eskimos. The poor fellow could hardly walk between sore feet and exhaustion. Peary came along behind I didn’t bother Peary with much of a description of our troubles. He was too much ell in at the time, After a brief he went below for food and rest. We went right ahead on deck meanwhile making a new rudder and trying to keep the ship afloat. Next day the leader came up to help me. He said: “We have got to get her back, captain. We are go to come again. mext year.” I ‘have thought he wouldn't have wanted The remaining propeller blades gave us only about five knots. But we pack, At Wrangel Bay we picked up a family of natives No sooner had Princess Mary left the camp than the girl driyers of the V. A. D.’s and the Q. M. A. A. ©.’ began discussing their chances of having the honor of driving her car. Almost frantic appeals were made to the various com- mandants to be recommended for the honor. It so chanced that this was the first time Princess had had any experience of girl chauffeurs and, whatever may have been her opinion at the start of the journey, it needed but a very few miles to convince her that the slim, uniformed figures at the wheel were as reliable and competent as any of the royal chauffeurs. During her stay in France, the prin- cess more than once remarked on their excel- lent driving. When, the after her afrival, the little party set forth for uen, there were two cars, one driven by a V. A. D. and the other by «a Q. M. A. A. C. Owing to a laughing hint con- veyed to Princess Mary by one of the party who knew how eagerly the honor had been coveted, the princess repeatedly changed cars and sat behind each proud chauffeur in turn. Saw Havoc Wrought by Zepp. Princess Mary had, for one in ‘her position, seen singularly little of other countries. The mere fact of being on foregin soil was a novelty to her, apart from the interest and excitement of all she was to see in so many phases of which she had, in her own country, already displayed the keenest interest. : The first halt was made at Abbeville, at which city was stationed the first V. A. D. convoy. The princess not only inspected the camp, but also was shown the damage done during a Zep- pelin raid in the spring. Many of the huts were battered and broken and there was a gaping crater that had not yet been filled up. Her royal highness grew very grave. “Terrible!” she said. “Terrible!

They had come up two days before from Fort Conger. On the way the woman had given birth to a baby, which com- _ plicated matters somewhat, But we managed to get them aboard our wreck and were soon off again. A few babies or dogs more or less in the bedlam aboard made little difference. We were headed at last through Kennedy Chan- nel south toward e Basin. But here the chan- nel was choked with heavy ice. e ———— —— J— oe a Gs é ae Pe Angee it A ate, Re 2 ny * — ae Sa We —— re . 2 ~ see” 8 * a fT Fi MAEM CO me ge Bt, Sneed oe gy ees S.

So before he got through coralling-every letter in the alpha- bet many years after, more than 50 years after, when he finished his “‘American” dictionary in 1828, Webster made a trip to Europe in a final search for the elusive primitive word, went down to Mount Vernon to advise with George Washing- ton on an American language, sought out and had an interesting interview with Benjamin Franklin on “reformed” ul g, importuned the Constitu- tional Convention delegates to fix an American language, lobbied the Congress in New York, Phil- adelphia, Washington, to effect a copyright law.

Now that last fact is an outstanding fact in Bellies Letters, American style, plus Dellicose Webster. Webster, ardent American, visioned an American language and an American nationality. He knew we could have neither unless we have our own language and printed our own books. And unless we printed our own books, we could get our own language officially recognized and assisting Diderot in compiling his encyclopedia. In between times, all three were roasting John- son. And Johnson, in turn, when not telling the whole literary world what to do, and throwing in for good measure advice to king and parliament, took a fall out of these French savants. Por instance, Boswell, Johnson’s book agent had been down to Ferney to see Voltaire, per- haps to sell the old codger a dictionary.

Deducing certain facts from the following hypothesis, one can believe Boswell funked. Reporting to Johnson-on his return to London, Johnson roared in his most impeccable English, “Rousseau, sir, is a bad man! I would sign a sentence for his transportation sooner than that of any felon who has gone from Old Bailey these many years.” Boswell, to get a little more material for his contemplated biography of John- son, asked sententiously, “Sir, do you think he is as bad a man as Voltaire?” Hear Johnson's re- ply—Maupertuis, the mathematician, while court- ing Frederick the Great, in Berlin, could not have done better: “Why, sir, it is difficult to settle the proportion of inquity between them.” His very words, sir. Rousseau was no traveler—he liked his seques- tered lodgings, his fanfare of poverty, his music, and, when possibie, greeted even his idolatrous reluctantly. His controversies .were by proxy-—-his Heloise, his Confessions, his Social Contact, seduced him, and thus he had no time to spare with realties. Whereas Voltaire, blazon- history, once of the English |@ = ae | Language” in Ce UML | 1828, If Webster is not, he should be the patron saint of every boy and girl in America—and one could suggest, of many others not so young. This is * because Webster said in the preface of his Spell- ing Book, “The spelling of such words as publick, favour, neighbour, head, prove, phlem, his, give, debt, rough, well, instead of the more natural method—public, favor, nabor, hed, proov, flem, hiz, det, ruf, wel—has the ,‘ea of antiquity in its favor; and yet I am convinced that common sense and convenience will sooner or later get the better of the present absurd practice.” Else- where and often he figuratively jumped with both feet on the grammarians. He was partial to “you was,” and gave his reason why, which is the reason you and I give today. But Webster never put these and other similar obviously néeded reforms into practice in any edition of his Institute or Speller. However, he was a pioneer along with klin, the prede- cessors of Theodore Roosevelt. Comes today—in the dying days of 1928—there was a long editorial in one of the leading newspapers of America large universities. The editorial writer himself observes that “ ‘it is I’ sounds a little prisay, and, without doubt, we are within the midst of transi- tion to ‘it is me.’” Here again Webster endears himself to all ages. Six: years after’ he had written the grammar in his Grammatical Institute (1782), he says: “After all my réading and observation for the course of ten years I have been able to unlearn a consider- able of what I learned in early life, and at 30° years of age can with confidence affirm that our modern grammars have done more hurt than good.” Yes, today the American language coul stand much Hooverizing.

And now we see Webster in the seventeen year of his twenty years work on his American dictionary, as told by the same biographer, “In 1824, leaving his family he took with him a son and set out for Europe.

In the middie of the morning and afternoon, 1 have crackers and milk, with a little sugar, and I must consume a half-pint of cream every day and a l-inch square of butter, preferably sweet, with every meal. For dinner, I order as much as I can eat of the things that I am supposed to, and they are so many that I never have to worry. {[ eat all soups except the clear ones, which are a waste as far as nourishment is concerned, and any sort of meat and fish and vegetables, as many as 1 can stand, with special emphasis on corn, spinach and string beans, which are even better if they are cooked with butter. Apples and prunes are the best fruits, and figs, dates, raisins and oranges, after those; potatoes, of course, and honey, syrup, jams and nuts are recommended. In fact, the only things that are definitely to be avoided are hot breads. cocoa, chocolate and tea—those most emphatically—blackberries, huck- leberries, strawberries, cheese and fermented bev- erages, none of which are much of a uardship for mé. “Of course, my regimen doesn’t stop with what I am supposed to eat. There afe things to do to stimulate the appetite and regulate the mus- cular action and what not, but they are so sim- ple that you can’t find any objection to doing them. I am supposed to walk 20 blocks every day—forty, if possible. I walk back and forth to the office and try to do a little walking at noon. Then, there should be some other exercise, such as riding or swimming.

As soon as she won her economic in- dependence and man could no longer dictate to her, it was only naturai that she should begin to demand more of marriage. and iook at it with different eyes. She wants to get out of it all that she can. And today,” said Mr Maugham with a twinkle in his eyes, “it is woman who gets the best of the bargain. She not only claims the ad- vantages that she received when she was a chattel and needed the law to plotect her, but she has added as well the power and freedom that her in- dependence has given her “Take alimony as an example. -Formerly when a woman was divorced or separated from her hus- band she had no means of earning a livelihood and so the law had to force the man to provide for her. But today, unless the woman has chil- dren, she does not need alimony. Yet there are women who have done nothing at all to déserve it or who marry just to get the alimony and the man has to pay it. He is helpless. Isn't it unfair for woman to insist upon equality in all things, but when it comes to the law to want her old privileges even when she is not in the least en- titled to thent? “However, I feel it is only a question of time when man and woman will be equal before the law. It may be that even women themselves will insist upon this change and the marriage of the future will be, from a legal standpoint, a more equal an@ a more fair arrangement than it is today. “As for the other aspects, a great many changes will doybtiess take place. 1 think that marriage will become purely a civii contract, which either pay will be able to teru.inate easily.” “Then you believe that we will gradually come to adopt Russia's arrangement?” Mr. Maugham was questioned “Not exactly” he replied “1! think that there they can terminate their marriages on no grounds Wi - otter iu nusbdDand may be bored or the wife imagine that she likes some one elee and he or she can immediately procure a divorce, even if they have only just been married.

Hereafter we wili have to accept divorce very much as we do marriage . For unless we make the exit as easy as the entrance, we ure going to have the situation where people wil) not be inclined to marry at all. They will seek their experiences without the sanction of marriage. This is no jess true of tue woman than of the man.

If people are going to regard marriage as a frap, they will do what they can to avoid it. And you can’t blame them. That is why I hope the. future will see marriage a more free relationship than it is now and one that may be easily severed.” “But won't that rob marriage of some of its sanctity?” he was asked “No, because tnese can be no sanctity about a marriage in which either of the parties finds the relationship intolerable When two persons live together merely because they can not Oind to get rid of each other, that marriage has ‘ost its sanctity. To my mind, it is akin to iv prostitution, If the relationship is to be sacra‘ at all, it must be gladly and willingly upheld by both husband and wife “The whole trouble is that we have senti- mentalized marriage I. has become th. one and glorious idéal—to go through life with the per- eon we have wedded until the very end, no matter how much suffering, misery and unhappiness it may entail But that is wrong and we are be- ginning to see that today. Isn't the more ideal- istic. and certainly more sacred, the one to which husband and wife contrib because of their love and devotion? A union should be an honest ynion and not. one that chains the people who enter into it. » “Men and women have already become so in- dividualistic that they will not tolerate any re- lationship which thwarts their growth or smothers their chances for happiness. They want to live their lives to the fullest; and if marriage does not foster their development, they wil] terminate it. “On the other hand, I don't want to create the: impression that this sort of relationship will mal for matrimonial bliss either,” gmiled Mr. ham. “That f* another sentiment on our part. 132 Sok ote te 1 tae hae . ¢ * *— J ay > we ~ — as Cap erro? ; ay 9 SPANNED oh: ip RED

That evening she had to go up on the hill to get them. When Mary had all of them together she thought she would count them. So she began—One-two-three and 50 on. The girl had 50 in all but 1 was missing that day So Mary hunted all over the hill. When she came to a deep ditch, Mary saw.a lamb lying in the ditch, and it was hers. Mary picked it up and carried it home with her. The lamb had a wounded leg. They put the lamb to bed. When he woke up, Mary gave the lamb some milk in cy bottle. Mary told her sisters and thers out losing the lamb and finding him. “Her sisters and brothers were gilac that Mary had found him. LOUISE FPAULCONER (age 10). Amherst. Va.

One autumn day an acorn fell off a tree in a deep forest. A squirrel planted the acorn for future needs and then forgot all about it. The sun warmed the spot and the rain watered it, and by and by after about three years, a plant about a foot high was to be seen in the spot. Year after year the plant grew. In about 25 years there was to be seen a young oak tree. : The years passed, each year adding a rim of growth around the tree. It must have been interesting to watch that tree grow, but as I wag not borm and, therefore, did not watch it, I can fust give you a sketch of what happened. Some men came into the forest, and seeing this tree which was now full grown they decided to chop it down. Thias ended the growth of the oak tree. wood pulp. Let us follow the course of one of the : * It was se to a table maker and carved and fitted into a lovely living- room table. A lady saw it and being rich she bought it. But her richness did not last and she had to sell the table to a woman who, though she was well to do, was none too rich. The table had no i t adven- tures until the year 1928. Then the descendants of the well to do lady who now owned the table, had to sell it to an antique dealer. The dealer gave her $100 for it, and then sold it to a mil- lionaire for $100,000. The table was really worth that mucr and we can not help it if it was bought for so low a price. Well, the table is now one of the most prized possessions Of Mme.
