KANSAS CITY ARTICLE STIRS OLD GUARD IRE Senator Inclined to Doubt Inference President Is With Coalition. GRUNDY AUDIENCE ALSO IS DISCLOSED Newspaper Story May Lead Regulars to Kill Moot Duties Measure. By CARLISLE BARGERON. Preside: t Hoover sent for Senator Watson, Republican leader, \yester- day with a view to having him placate the Old Guard's resentment against tariff developments of the last few days, in which Mr. Hoover has been rather strongly represented as siding with the Democratic-Progressive coa- lition, instead of the Regulars of his party. It is seldom that the senator has been so uncommunicative after a White House visit. This was a break- fast engagement, in which he talked with the President for an hour or more. It was also learned that Sena- tor Grundy, of Pennsylvania, the country’s outstanding high tariff ad- vocate, has also conferred with Mr. Hoover since publication of a story that he was circulating Mr. Hoover’s purported coalition tariff views in the Senate. : The senator gives the purpose of his visit, however, as patronage, and insists the tariff was not discussed. That the President and Senator Grun- @y could have talkéd to each other without mentioning the tariff, in the light of developments,’ revéals thetr power of restraint. Holds View Not Authentic. The most definite line that could be gotten on what occurred between the President and Senator Watson was the latter’s continued belief that the purported refiection of Mr. Hoover’s views was not authentic. The refiec- tion was first made by a writer of the Kansas City Star after a long talk with the President. Although pub- lished in a most friendly newspaper, it was unfortunate, from the adminis- tration’s viewpoint, in many ways. For one thing, it rather strongly in- timated that the Democrats should overturn the Republican forces in the forthcoming elections because of their “honesty” in giving the Presi- dent what he wants. It was most embrarrassing for such eenators as Alleh, Capper and Van- denburg, who have all along consid- ered themselves administration sup- porters, yet it is seldom that they have voted with the coalition on a straightout issue between the coali- tion and the Old Guard. They have voted for the agricultural increases, but that has not been the issue. The coalition’s fight, generally speaking, has been to boost agricultural rates and hold industrial rates to their present level, if not reduce them. They have effected many notable re- ductions but the general belief is that this is simply for bargaining purposes when the bill goes to con- ference, that the bill as they would finally have it would be one giving the agricultural increases and main- taining present industrial levels. Senators Allen, Capper and Van- denberg, cited simply as an example, have generally voted for the finance committee recommendations, which in some instances increase agricul- tural items and in others increase in- dustrial rates. The coalition has not adhered to the committee report at all. Story Deeply Resented. Yet in spite of this, the Kansas City Star’s story, read to the Senate by Senator Pat Harrison of Missis- sippi, is deeply resented by the Old Guard, and has increased their belief that they should kill the bill. Whether Senator Watson will be able to mollify the Old Guard sene- tors remains to be seen. Indeed, those who talked with him were divided as to the extent he himself had _ been mollified. Senator Grundy, who might be said to be leading somewhat of a move- ment against the President, is rather difficult of molification. It is his attitude that, newspaper stories entirely aside, the President should do something to get the rates he wants. There were some intimations that the situation may prompt Mr. Hoover to issue a statement in a few days. Whether he does or not his influence is expected to show when the bill goes to conference. His sympathies with the Old Guard or the. Progressives will be determined then by the ex- tent to which the House resists the Senate coalition rates. And some light on this is to be gleaned from recent utterances by Speaker Longworth that Gaemeed on Page 11, Column 1, - | a Washington Post Check | Reveals as Few as 23 Present. in Chamber When Count Was Made. Recently the House appropriations subcommittee that handles the Dis- trict of Columbia budget employed Bureau of Efficiency investigators to spy on the local judges.and to report the mumber of hours each sat on the bench. On the theory that turn about is fair play, The Post assigned a re- porter to make a similar check-up on the members of the House. His story is presented herewith. By EDWARD T. FOLLIARD. A gala event is the opening session of a new Congress. There is a hustle and bustle about the Capitol that grips the member and the visitor alike. Outside, Old Glory has been flung to the breeze to signalize the new session; inside an assistant ser- geant at arms stands poised with the eagle-surmounted mace that is the symbol of the House’s authority.

RADIATOR SOLUTION FATAL TO FIVE MEM Six Others Ill of Drinking Concoction They Thought Was Wine. STOLE JUGS AT GARAGE Lyons, Nebr., Feb. 22 (A.P.).—An antifreeze radiator solution, drunk by a group of young men at a carni- val at Oakland, Nebr.; Thursday night in the belief that it was. wine, has caused the deaths of five of them and the illness of half a dozen oth- ers. Three of the victims died yester- day and two of them today. The dead are Leon Jarvis, 18, and Hollis, Cleyeland, 17, both high school football stars; Nelson Jarvis, 20, a poolroom employe, and a brother of Leon; Lawrencé Kohimeir, 24, 4 farm hand, and Reuben Roberg, 22, a rail- road section hand. Lester Kohimeier, 22; Philip Going, 23, and Clyde Dotson, who took one drink each from the gallon jug, sat home tonight doing nothing, hoping for the best, on advice of physicians. Roberg, in delirium yesterday, kept repeating “Snethen’s basement.” Then it was discovered that Ed Snethen, station agent, found that some one had gone into kis basement and filled two one-gallon jugs with radia- tor solution he kept there. “It don’t see how the stuff would kill them all,” Snethen said. “They must have mixed something with it.” He said he bought the solution and used it in the winter of 1928-1929, drained it and again used it, mixed with a quantity of new solution of the same kind, and again put it in his car. When the cold weather came this winter he drained the radiator and put his car in a garage. The boys returned from Lyons from Oakland about 2 a. m. Friday. They noticed they appeared pale, but thought it was only a touch of “off- color” wine. It was not until 11 a. m. yesterday, when Lawrence Kohlmier became critically ill, that doctors were called. 6 Drown, 400 Homeless By Torrential Rains Athens, Greece, Feb. 22 (A.P.).— Six persons were drowned and some 600 families made homeless during torrential rains which undermined houses last night.

UP 10 HOOVER Senator Says “Sentence” From President Would Wipe Out Graft. | BLAME PUT ON POLITICS Senator Norris, chairmene of the judiciary committee of the Senate, yesterday put real enforcement of prohibition squarely up to President Hoover. The Nebraskan deciared that “one sentence from the President would wipe out corruption in enforcement.” Continuing, he said: “The President has only to an- nounce that he will disregard politics and politicians and political recom- mendations concerning policies or ap- pointments. There is no other way to make the dry law effective.” Senator Norris indicated his deier- mination to continue his fight for an investigation of enforcement under the Prohibition Bureau in the Treas- ury Department. The judiciary com- mittee is scheduled to resume. con- sideration of the Norris-Wheeler in- vestigation proposals at a meeting to- morrow.

French Parliament’s System Is Based On Idealism in Polities ° By DAVID RANKIN BARBEE.

One reason bootleggers and sus- pected bootleggers escape from pro- hibition agents and police with such frequency may be that they are fore- armed by poseessing knowledge of just how tae ’we enforcera are going to work.

The quiet little City of Alex- andria, across the Potomac, was the Mecca yesterday for more than 150,- 000 persons who flocked from all parts of the Nation to pay tribute to George Washington. To Alexandria, more than anywhere else In the United States, belongs the honor of memorializing the first pres- ident of the United States, for when he was but 16 years of age George Washington, then but a student of laid out the plan of what railroad terminal of the Nation. And until his death Alexandria, the near- est town to his Mount Vernon estate, was the home of George Washington. Aided and abetted by a weather man who apparently was fully cogni- zant of the significance of the occa- sion, the crowds started long before noon to line the curbs along Wash- ington street to witness the parade that started at 2:30 o'clock im the afternoon.

Several thousand dolfars worth of jewelry, including diamond rings, bracelets and a wrist watch, were missing from the body, which had been almost denuded by the batter- ing of the automobile wheels. The car, splattered with blood, was found by police, parked on a downtown | street of this city.

Mu FOUR Te CRASH IN SANDY HOOK FOG Ward Liner Collides With Freighter; Kungsholm and Maya Damaged. TWO FORCED TO RETURN New York, Feb. 22 (A.P.).—A heavy blanket of fog off the coast caused two ship collisions late today and two of the four craft were forced to turn back to port, ddmaged. The more serious collision occurred between the Ward liner Monterey, bound for Havana, and the Italian freighter Isarco, inbound from Nor- folk, Va., about 35. miles south of Sandy Hook, N. J. The other crash occurred at a point not yet ascertained between the United Fruit Co.’s liner Maya, out- bound for Central and South Amer- fican ports, and the Swedish-American liner Im, whose. master ra- dioed that his ship was only “slightly damaged” and that he had anchored off Craven Shoals because of the fog, with the intention of proceeding as goon ag possible on the voyage to the West Indies and Central American ports. Both the Monterey and the Maya reported by wireless they were re- turning to Quarantine, In New York Harbor, to survey the damage. The advices indicated fe Monterey was the more seriously G@smaged: She had a hole in her bow, about 8 feet above the water line, and her port anchor was torn off the hawse pine The Maya also reported her port hawse pipe had been torn off: Tne Monterey anchored outside Sandy Hook Bar late tonight. The collisions occurred in a fog so dense and fast moving that it swept far inland and obscured New York City’s skyscraper peaks from view. Four coastal steamers were pre- vented by fog from entering the har- bo r. Shipping circles believed that most of the big liners which left their|/. piers by noon today escaped to sea before the fog. closed in around the harbor and thickened over the bay. The Hamburg-American liner Cleve- land sailed at 3 p. m. Up to early this evening no word had beer received from her and it was not known whether she had an- chored.

It unfolds in master- ful style the tragedy af the White House news gatherers, the heartaches and disappointments of their life.. It depicts the news gatherers, wist- ful and yearning, outside the presi- dential office by day, while the Nation's important business is being transacted within the office by night. It might be entitled, indeed, the futility of news effort, or the dauntiless optimism of men. One who gets a kick out of pluck, or the will to win,' will be uplifted by this picture. No more patience was ever shown on the face of the earth, in fact, than that of Arthur De Titter, local Metro manager, who directed it, and Al Waldron, who. handled the camera, and Mack Williams, who oper- ated the ear phones. It was for this trio that the Capitol caught on fire. . e o e M shown in characteristic pose. There is, for example, the scene of Mr. J. Russell Young and Count De Zapp playing checkers. Did we say characteristic pose? Really, it is the life story of them. Then, too, there is the famous snow scene, as the news writers grab right and left for the statements of Repre- sentative J. Hamilton Fish, giving hits opinion of what ig wrong with the universe, and those of Bishop Cannon and the Sunday blue law advocates on ANY of the news gatherers are [The Listening Post HERE is an intense moment as the new White House guard pa- rades past the new court cham- berlain with the secretariat drawn up at salute. The scene is entitled low- ering the colors or “All Quiet on the Potomac,” or something like that. A commentary on the modern speed of things, too, is given in the scene depicting the rapid transmis- sion to ail the four corners of the earth of the story of a little girl who comes in to give the President a rat- tlesnake hat-band. The news gath- erers are seen to rush for their tele- phones, then a kaleidoscopic like one is taken to the telegraph wires and out over them to the whirling presses of newspapers all over the world. . om ad « T is seldom that one runs across just such a heart-gripping, hair- splitting story as this, and it is doubtful if George Durno who did thig one who could do such another one, Of course, there {s the comedy re- Hef by Messrs.

For one thing, it is the last public appearance of Mr. James L. West be- fore he went into retirement with the Republican national committee. Quite seriously, as the actors them- selves say, the picture is either very, very good or very, very rotten.

Decision Is Due Tuesday. Of course, the members of the committee could lay the blame on the President and the leaders for the failure of the Dale bill, but that wouldn’t put any extra annuity mpney in the pockets of the em- ployes. In any event, the answer to the problem will come Tuesday when the House civil service committee meets in executive session to decide on what is to be done. If the history of the last ten years is repeated, Chairman Lehlbach will emerge from that meeting with a favorable report on his bill. That is not a prediction; it is simply a way of saying that Lehibach usually gets what he wants. Line-up of Committee. Fourteen of the 21 members of the committee were opposed to the Lehl- bach bill and in favor of the Dale bill on Friday morning. Of this 14, 7 were Republicans and 7 Demo- crats. If the President’s statement and Chairman LehlDach’s own eloquence can convert four_of these Republi- cans, the Lehibach bill can win. The \fact is, that some of the mem- bers were opposed to the Lehlbach bill, not so much because of its pro- visions, but because they were afraid that it coujd not pe owen in time, In the case of the e bill, no such fear. was entertained, because that — ure already has. passed the Sen- ate, Bay State Member Talks. Take, for example, the position of Representative McCormack (Demo- crat), of Massachusetts, a member of the civil service committee and a tion. “It must be borne in mind,” he said yesterday, “that there was com- plete justification for the feeling on the part of those who believed that a = on the Lehlbach bill would in probability result in no legislation heike enacted at this session. “It must be borne.in mind that. the Senate had considered the Dale bill, ices teeneenieeeneeieemeeeeeteereer ee en eee DIED. burdey, February 22, 1930, » 1812 G street north- IA GRUBB. aged ninety- and at Va.

Lehibach Bill Unexpected. “The recent Lehlbach bill estab- lishes a new retirement system, and it was filed unexpectedly, when the passage of the Dale bill was generally conceded, and came like a thunder- bolt out of a clear sky. “It is only natural, and common sense would dictate it, that members of the Senate would want the apro- priate committee of that body to hold gy ae “ the Lehlbach bill, n event that it was passed the House. ™ “Those deeply interested, as_I am, in liberalizing the retirement law, felt reasonably certain that if the new Léhibach bill was reported no legis- lation would be secured this, session. Only One Course Seen. “Under the circumstances, with all due respect to President Hoover and Representative Lehlibach, whose sin- cerity no one can question, there was only one honest course to take in justice to the many thousands of Fed- eral employes who have been looking forward to the course of some Jiber- alizing legisiatin this session. Mr. McCormack said that, while there were some provisions in the Lehibach bill that he didn’t like; he believed that it might serve as a basis for consideration of a retirement law that would bring satisfaction to the ‘employes. But the time to bring it up, he said, would be after the Dale bill has passed. The statement of President Hoover against the Dale bill evidently came as something of a shock to proponents of that measure. Yesterday there was no statement forthcoming from them. Statement by Steward. There was a statement, however, from Luther C. Steward, president of the National Federation of - Federal Employes. Mr. Steward has stead- fastly supported the Lehlbach bill, Commenting on a. statement by Chairman Lehlbach that the Oppo- nents of his bill were motivated by Year and panic, Mr, Steward said: “We can thoroughly appreciate Chairman Lehibach's feeling in re- gard to attempting to combat mass Panic in connection with a bill which contains as mush a benefit to all Federal employes within the retire- ment system as does the Lehlbach bill. Difficulties Are Understood. . “The National Federation of Fed- eral Employes has no illusions as to the difficulties which beset the path of any group which stands for pro- gressive improvement. “We feel very definitely that: the hearings just closed represent a sub- stantial advance toward an equitable Federal retirement system, and we Shall continue our efforts unceasingly to bring about that desirable result. “When the panic has subsided, the benefits in the Lehlbach bill for all ves at Go will become increasingly ap- parent.

G 4 a emer ren ee ree | | COLORS MASSED AT MEMORIAL CONTINENTAL HALL | WASHINGTON 1S PAI HOMAGE IN CAPITAL First President’s Memory Is Honored on Natal Day by Residents Here. RITES ARE IMPRESSIVE In appropriate exercises and cere- monies, Washington yesterday paid tribute and homage to George Wash- ington OD, the occasion of his 198th birthday. From early morning to late last night, Capital residents were enthus- lastic participants in Washington birthday programs and joined in groups visiting the tomb, home, monument and other places closely vassociated with the name of the first president and Father of His Country. The day's memorial and celebra- tions which were heightened by the holiday freedom and warm, spring- like weather, reached its peak with the mammoth parade at Alexandria, which is inseparably linked with the Nation’s immortal hero. State Flags Raised. In proclaiming Washington’s natal anniversary a nationally observed holiday, @ scene was enacted at the base of his Monument at 8 o’clock which depicted vividly the enormous growth and development of the Na- tion which Washington founded seven years after he won its independence on the fields of battle. Signalizing the opening of the city-wide and Nation-wide celebration, 48 flags rep- resenting the States of the Union, in- stead of only the 13 States Washing- ton knew, were raised to the top of the poles a ieee the great memorial shaft. Maj. C. L. Peterson, representing the office of the public buildings and public parks of the Na- tional Capital, was in charge of the flag ceremony. The call to color was sounded by buglers from Fort Wash- ington. Capt. Allen Buchanan, naval aide to the President, represented Mr. Hoover at the exercises. Throughout the day the monument was also the scene of pilgrimages and programs by patriotic, fraternal and civic groups. Other groups, including 1,000 Boy Scouts, visited Mount Ver- non, home and resting place of Wash- ington, Celebrations Are Combined. The principal civic celebration in Washington was the exercises held at the Continental Memoria] Hail, which were joined by members .of the District of Columbia Society, Sons of the American Revolution; the Sons of the Revolution in the District of Columbia, the Daughters of the Amer- ican Revolution, and the Children of the American Revolution. It was the first time since 1925 that such joins exercises have been held in memory of Washington. Senator Simeon D. Fess, of Ohio, was the principal speaker. Unable to attend the ceremonies as formerly, Sir Esme Howard, retiring British Ambassador, sent qa letter of regret in which he referred to the “father of the American Republic and one of the greatest men in the history of the world.” His letter, written to Col. Alonzo Gray, of the Sons of the American Revolution, was read dur- ing the program. Col. Gray presided in his capacity of president of the District of Columbia S. A. R., and the exercises were opened by the Rev James Shera Montgomery, chaplain of the House of Representatives and pastor of the Metropolitan M. E. Church, Marine Orchestra Plays. Music was furnished by the Marine Band Orchestra, and members of the First Battalion, Sixteenth Field Ar- tillery, from Fort Myer, Va., acted as ushers. C. Y. Latimer, with a guard of Minute Men, supervised the mass- ing of colors; Mary Josephine Davis, of the Gov. Thomas Welles Society, Children. of the American Revohitton, led the au- dience in the pledge of allegiance to the flag, and William Tyler Page, clerk of the House of Representatives, led in reciting the “American Creed,” of which he is the author. Greetings were delivered by Ken- neth 8. Wales, vice president of the National Society; Sons of the Ameri- can Revolution; . Mrs. Percy E. Quinn, president of the National Society, Children of the American Revolution; Dr. Thomas E. Green, president Sons of the Revolution in the District of: Columbia, and Mrs. Lowell Fletcher Hobart, president general Daughters of the American Revolution. Corfi- missioner Proctor L. Dougherty de- livered greetings on behalf of the Dis- trict government, and was followed by John Paul Ernest, who read from Washington’s historic messages. Gold Medals Awarded. Prior to Senator Fess’ oration, two gold medals were awarded, in keeping with annual custom, to winners in historical contests. Murray. Bern- hardt, of Eastern High School, was given the award of the Society of the Sons of the Revolution in the Dis- trict for the best essay on “‘Contribu- tion of Massachusetts to the War of Revolution.” Representative Edith N. Rodgers, of Massachusetts, made the presentation. Miss Elizabeth Drewry, of George Washington University, was awarded the 1 of the D. C. Society, D. A. R., for the best essay submitted in a contest on American history. Mrs David D. Caldwell presented the al. The exercises closed with a bene- diction by the Rev. Edmund A. Walsh, 8. 3: vice president of George- town University and regent of the School of Foreign Service. Other Ceremonies Feld. Elsewhere throughout the city, at | Arlington National Cemetery, and at !'Mount Vernon, .ceremonies were con- ducted. After placing a wreath at the base of the Washington Monu- ment, members of the Washifigton National Monument Association held their annual meeting at 12:30 o’clock in the Metropolitan Club. Justice Willis Yan Devanter, of the United States Supreme Court, vice president of the association, presided. The Association of Oldest Inhabi- tants of the District of Columbia also paid tribute to Washington’s memory during its regular meeting at the Western Presbyterian Church, Nine- teenth and H streets northwest. Representative Henry Allen Cooper, of Wisconsin, senior member in years of service, who was the prin- cipal speaker, characterized Washing- ton as the greatest of all patriots in the history of the world. “Of al) men in recorded history,” he onl “who are entitled to be called the ‘Father of His Country,’ George Washington is that man in thé most complete sense of the word, immortalized of all generations and all peoples.” Henry Bryan Presides. Maj. Gen. Anton Stephan and others took part in the program. : | Henry L. Bryan presided in the ab- sence of Theodore W. Noyes. presi- dent, who is out of the city.

He was a banker, he was an engineer, he was interested in ,transportation. both highway and waterway; he was a manufacturer, he applied science to his farm problems, he was a real es- tate dealer and one of the first large scale American exporters, he solved for the citizens of Alexandria.’ Speaking later over WRC, Repre- sentative Hamilton Fish, jr.. of New York, declared a ban should be placed on the sale of munitions of war by private corporations, for the sake of profit, to belligerent nations. Judge Florence Allen Speaks. On the same program Judge Florence E. Allen, of the Supreme Court of Ohio, spoke on “Peace’ She opposed the construction of any additional warships and cruisers ana urged the American people to let the President and Congress Know their individual views on this subject.

RAIL RATE FIGHT IS NEXT (Associated Press.) The Supreme Court, with Charles Evans Hughes at its head as Chief Justice in place of Williami Howard Taft, will resume its sessions tomot row after a recess from January 27. Its first business will be the simple, proceedings inducting Mr. Hughes into his high office, and then the our members of the court will deliver.@ number of decisions in 53 cases which have been under consideration during the recess. Among these may be rulings on the validity of the Hoch-Smith resolution, authorizing the Interstate Commerce Commission to reduce railroad ra ress to aid agriculture in distress, whi has been challenged by more than 400 railroads in the deciduous fruit case from California; and on the chal- lenge by the Duke interests in the Carolinas of the authority of the In-. terstate Commerce Commission over. interurban electric railways. The first case to be orally ; before the court with Chief Justice Hughes at its head will be thet brought by C. L. Johnson and other citizens of South Carolina, opposing a@ proposed $65,000,000 bond issue by the State for highway improvement, Showing the diversity of the business before the highest tribunal, the second case to be argued comes from the other side of the continent, brought by C. L. Crawford, of Mendocino County, Calif., attacking the validity of the law under which it is proposed to organize the Golden Gate Bridge and Highway District. One of the first cases to be reached by the court in which Chief Justice Hughes will decline to participate will be that brought by the Great Lakes States to stop the diversion, of water from Lake Michigan by the Chicago Sanitary District. It will be taken up on March 12, on the report which Mr. Hughes made as special master, and to which both sides have taken exceptions. "' Charles E. Hughes, jr., Solicitor General of the Department of Jule tice, whose resignation is in the hands of the President, will argue several cases before the court prior to retiring. Mr. Hughes, the Depart- ment of Justice said today, had pre~ pared several cases, and it was con= sidered necessary that he argue them before quitting the office from which he resigned when his father accepted appointment as Chief Justice. The Chief Justice is not expected to par- ticipate in the cases argued by his son. The department said that Thomas Day Thacher, New York jurist, named by President Hoover to succeed young. Hughes as Solicitor General, could not arrange his affairs to take up his new duties for at least 30 days. Church in Purcellville | - Will Open Next Sunday Special to The Washington Post.

THE _ WASHINGTON, POST: SUNDAY, FEBRUARY: 23. 1930. “~~ - a a a ee ere Check; Says That Affidavit Evades Smith Issue. ee ee “PEOPLE” LAST RESORT Selma, Ala... Feb. 22 mund W. Pettus, State (A.P.).—Ed- chairman of the Democrtaic executive commit- tee, today refused to accept the quali- | fications of United States Senator |. J. Thomas Heflin as a Candidate to! succeed himself in the Democratic primary August 12. In explanation of his action Pettus told the senior: Alabama senator that the affidavit de- claring himself a candidate did not meet the requirements of a resolution |: adopted by the Democratic executive comm 'ttee fixing qualifications of can- didates for Federal, State, district and circuit offices. Although Heflin, in his application, declared that he did not vote the presidential ticket in 1928; the “or chairman pointed out that “you fail to state that you did not opénly and publicly oppose the election of the nominees of the Democratic party, or either or them, and that you did not oppose the election of the Democratic electors for President and Vice Presi- dent in November, 1928.” “Lifelong Democrat.” “As this particular part of your af- fidavit probably can not be amended,” Pettus’ letter to the senator contin. ued, “my duty under the«resolution ig to return your check.” Before leaying for Washington dur- ing the past week, Senator Heflin - qualified with the secretary of State as a candidate in compliance with the corrupt practice act. He said he would await the decision of the State Supreme Court on a petition of Hor- ace Wilkinson, Birmingham, before announcing his campaign plans. May Run Independently. Wilkinson's plan seeking to re- strain Jefferson County from pro- ceeding with the primary an the grounds that it would be an illegal expenditure of public funds was. dis- missed in Jefferson Circuit Court and was filed on appeal with the Supreme Court. Heflin, a bitter opponent of Alfred FE. Smith in 1928, has declared if the Supreme Court fails to uphold the petition he will take his case “to the highest supreme court—the people” as a “Jeffersonian” candidate. Senator Heflin last night predicted that two-thirds of all Alabama Demo- crats will “see to it” that a primary election is provided in that State in which all Democrats can vote or run for office on equal terms, regardless of how they voted in 1928 In a formal statement issued from his office, Senator Heflin said he had made five speeches in Alabama to 16,000 Democrats and at every place “a resolution condemning the State committee’s action in discriminating against and penalizing Democrais who supported Hoover was adop*%ed.” “Those who now strongly resent the Smith-Raskob-Tammany control of the Alabama State committee,” © the Alabaman continued, “and those who are opposed to Smith for President in 1932, can by uniting in a real fair- for-all white Democratic primary, rid the party and the State of the hurt- ful, obnoxious and dangerous alien influence which has already seriously injured the Democratic party in Ala- bama.” i Alabama Clairman ‘Returns | % ae - iy OF EE Or Re er Ee er > Left, Miss Faustine Dennis, {president of the Washington unit of the Women’s Overseas Service’ League, and Miss Katherine An- _ drews, chairman of the committee for the annual banquet to be : held March 8 at 2400 Sixteenth street northwest.

~ \ ; ‘ ' pact, providing machinery for gath- ‘scanned in an effort to ascertain the S LAD TO HOOVER) | Policy of U. S. Delegation at Parley Supposed to Have Come From President. PARIS NEWS IS AWAITED By JOHN L. BALDERSTON. London, Feb, 22 (N.Y.W.N.S.).—The decision announced on authority from Washington that the American delegation to the five-power naval conference will not enter into new security pacts or extensions of pacts, is supposed, to have been givég out on behalf of President. Hoover. It wag snot made here. Political ques- tions-as such are outside the terms of the conference. The subject has never officially eome before the conference at all, which is the reasod why differences of opinion in our delegation on pact problems have been maintained up to now. - President Hoover, contrary to some reports, has not interfered in any way with thé decisions of the delegations on matters before the conference. For instance, the decision whether to ask Britain for fifteen or eighteen cruisers, was taken by the delegation itself,.without reference to the White House. Butspolitical questions, such as even informal conversations with other delegations. about pact possi- bilities would naturally be referred to Washington before the most gingerly feelérs were put out. Two Issues Before Delegation. From the start iof the conference certain. American. delegates held the view that the extension of the Kellogg ering information and prompt con- sultation, and even for agreement to consult with other powers who might conclude’ a mediterranean pact, would not be objected to by the Senate, or American public opinion: and “could rightly be undertaken as a conces- sion to France if such action would help the success of the conference. Other delegations have held differ- ent: views. The extension of the Kellogg pact, although not a platonic part of the Mediterranean pact, was even confidently asserted here to have received the President's blessing be- fore the delegation sailed. As said in a previous dispatch, this doesn't mean that the delegation was split on these issues because the delegation, as a delegation, has never considered them. ere were two main questions involved before such consideration was worth while, pub- lic opinion at home, especially sena- torial opinion, and ascertainment of whether such suggestions from the United States would do the slightest good in meeting the French demand for additional security as -the price of reducing her fleet. ‘New French Delegates Awaited. It seems probable at present that reactions in Washington, plus the French comment indicating that only pacts with teeth in them would ac- cord with French wishes, have led to the decision in Washington / that the pact idea is dead. But in Ameri- can- quarters friendly to some such geature, it is still held that perhaps conditions may change and doubt is expressed whether Washington stories imply a definite and final veto on all such nebulous ideas. a, Dispatchés from Paris are..eagerly policy of the new French delegates. These are conflicting, but on the whole the hope that Briand will have more power in this new delegation than under Tardieu makes those that are left here of the conference slightly more chéerful. On the other hand, the presence in London of the new French minister of marine, Sar- raut, is held to signify that the big French navy party will have as for- midable a champion as Leygues | proved to be. Comment of Former Editor. Wickham Steed, former editor of the Times and writing in the Sunday Times, raises the question of freedom of the seas. In his articles he says: “If every country has to look after itself, notwithstanding the League covenant and the Paris pact, navies will not be wanted for national wars if everybody is going to help every- body else. They will be wanted only for police work and might be cut down accordingly. “There is no getting around their dilemma. It has to be faced. If the London conference had faced it from | the start and had set itself to decide what navies are for, seeing that. everybody has renounced wags some. progress might have been ma We | should at least have known where the | various powers stand and whether the United States will, or can say what it will do, or not do, if anybody | breaks the peace pact. Navies For Fighting. “During their naval holiday, Mac- Donald; Stimson and Hoover have | peen thinking hard. It is almost time for the peoples of Great Brit- ain and of the United States to begin to think also. As a start they might do worse and make up their minds whether they are going to think about war or peace. If they really believe that war is certain to come one day, they had better de- cide that’ navies will be wanted for | fighting and give up the idea of cutting them down. If they really | believe that peace can and ought to} be organized, they should think How it can be done and whether it is— worth while to run the risk of hav- ing smaller navies for the sake of ace. 7 “As an aid to their thought it might be well if MacDonald tnd, Hoover would now say precisely what. is in their minds and what they | really meant when they jointly de-| clared at Washington last October that they look upon the peace pact ‘not only as a declaration of our good | intentions, but as a positive obliga- | tion to direct our national policy in| accordance with its pledges.’ Other- | wise the peoples of Great Britain | and the United States, as well as the, rest of the world, may, by their own unaided thought, come to the douot- less mistaken conclusion that the peace pact, the joint Washington declaration and the London confer- ence are little more than a porten- tious make-believe.

O. Manquin rushed into the throng of frenzied, shouting’ participants and arrested three persons. Taken to the Sixth Precinct Sta- tion, the three were charged with disorderly conduct.

Lamoureux, minister of finances, and Robert Bellanger, under secretary of marine, will cross the channel Wednesday and M. Chau- temps hfmself plans to participate actively at a later date. Another Relay is Possible. Should M. Chautemps be defeated Tuesday the conference faces the danger of another delay. The American delegates were sad- dened this afternoon when it was an- nounced that Rear Admiral Hilary P. Jones, naval expert with the delega- tion, had been ordered home by phy- Ssiclans on account of a_ serious stomach trouble. Admiral Jones was ill before he left Washington, but rendered valuable services here, despite the fact that he had been confined to bed on sev- eral occasions. Today English spe- cialists diagnosed the trouble as severe ulcers of the stomach. Dr. M. E. Higgins, naval physician at- tached to the delegation, consulted others in the group and the admiral decided to sail on the Berengaria Wednesday for treatment in the Naval Hospital at Washington.

Radios as fine as the Radiola 62 are not built in huge quantities—these were intended only for those people who appreciate and can afford the finer things in life. But, now they come to Lansburgh’s at a price that most any one can afford to pay. 3 This opportunity is confined to this store in Washingtgn, for we bought the entire Washington allotment—to sell at a saving of $255.50 on each set, and when they are gone, there won't be any more. You’ve undoubtedly heard the RCA Radiola 62—if not, believe us, it is marvel- ous! ‘Tone as sweet and mellow as an old Stradivarius; supreme in distance getting and powerful in volume; super-selective; and as beautiful as fine cabinet making can produce. Our guarantee of complete satisfaction with every set. Obviously Superior Construction Radiola 62 is a combination of the famous RCA Super-Heterodyhe and the RCA Dynamic Loudspesker built into a beautiful walnut console cabinet. Yet, with its single tuning control, power switch, and volume con- trol, it is easier to operate than the most elementary receiver. Nine powerful “AC” Radiotrons are employed m Radiola 62, the receiving circuit of which consists of two stages of tuned radio freqeuncy amplification, first detector, oscillator, two stages of tuned intermediate frequency amplification, a second power detector, and one stage of power audio frequency amplification. Rec- tification of the voltages for plate and grid throughout Why We Believe In the Radiola 62 America’s desire for the really better things of life is, we believe, more keenly prominent at the seat of America’s Gov- ernment than elsewhere.

Radio Salon, Fourth Floor is accomplished by the ninth tube, Radiotron UX-280. Although Radiola 62 is super-selective, this desirable feature is accomplished without the loss of quality. The entire musical range of the broadcast signal is received by Radiola 62—yet cach station is precisely seperated. No other circuit is capable of this inclusive selectivity. The new RCA Dynamic Loudspeaker, an integral part of Radiola 62, incorporates refinements and improve- ments that are the results of extensive research work which has been carried on for many years. It provides superior fesponse over a greater number of musics! octaves than have ever before heen heard in radio re- ception. The remarkable performance capabilities of Kadiole 62 and the obvious beauty and superior craftsmanship of its cabinet give to its justly proud owner a sew con- ception of Radio. - . . American thrift is practiced, we believe, more diligently within the District of Co- lumbia than elsewhere on this continent. Thus, these deductions gave us courage to overlook the obvious and inspired us to accomplish the unusual in presenting the Rediola 62 at a phenomenally low price.

The coalition has taken this flex- ie power away from him but there several proposed compromises in e wind which would permit the President to retain the power but giving Congress a veto within 60 or’ 90 days. The developments of the past few days, however, have militated against this compromise. They have rather ititensified the coalition’s intention t® take the flexible power away from Me President entirely because of the fear that some of the rates they Write may subsequently be changed. There are indications, too, that the Old Guard, because of its inability to figure out Mr. Hoover's tariff views, is leaning to some sort of a Proposition that would give Congress @ lever on the flexible power in the Welief that they would have better fuck on individual items with their fellow senators than with the Presi- ar — 4- x 5 4 4 ‘Sy ts 4 : ; po i Milbiin ath, A , eae > : % * oa at? s z 4 Sy - $40 Allowance ‘For Your Old Machine If You Purchase Any— '“Free-Westinghouse’ Elec.

(Bureau of Home Economics, Department of Agriculture.) Eggs-may be served at any meal and in a variety of ways.’ Probably no other single article of food can be utilized in a greater number of dishes. Whether alone or with ham or bacon, or in omelets, souffles, or croquettes. BBs May appear in the main dish of any meal. Many quick breads, cakes, salad dressings, sauces, desserts,’ and beverages not only taste better and look more attractive when made with a liberal proportion of eggs, but they are also higher in food value. In whatever way they are served, eggs are a good source of efficient protein and some of the minerals and vitamins needed for building the body and keeping it healthy. . The secret of success in cooking eggs and dishes in which eggs pre- dominate, is to cook slowly at mod- erate, even heat. For soft-cooked eggs or for hard- cooked eggs with tender whites, start the eggs in cold water to cover, sup- ported on a rack. Heat the water gradually to simmering, but do not iet it boil. Boiling temperature toughens white of egg. The temperature of the water should not be allowed to go higher than 185 degrees F. For soft- cooked eggs, remove from the fire when the water simmers (or is 185 dé- F.), cover the pan, and let stand ‘or a few minutes. The length of time required must be found by expe- rience. e number of eggs cooked at a time, the size of the pan, and the quantity amd temperature of the water all affect the rate at which eggs cook. For hard-cooked eggs, continue the cooking over a low fire for 30 min- utes after the water simmers, and keep it below boiling. To poach eggs, break them into boiling salted water to cover in a shallow pan, and immediately remove from the fire. Cover and let stand for about five minutes. Remove the @ggs carefully with & perforated spoon To fry eggs, break them into a mod- erately hot pan containing bacon or other fat, and cook over a low fire. If the eggs are to be cooked over the top, dip up the hot fat with a spoon and pour it over the yolKs until a coating is formed., Or, if preferred turn the eggs carefully and cook them on both sides. . For shirred or baked eggs, break them into a shallow buttered baking dish or ramekin, dot with butter, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

FEW MEMBERS PRESENT AT SESSIONS OF HOUSE 4 _ THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1930. Continued from Pagel, °* membership of 435. On one. occasfon, at 4 o'clock ithe afternoon, there were only | members on the floor, fewer than | the number of page boys who stood |} around awaiting their call. And ex- cept for two occasions when the peil | sounded for a quorum call and ‘aye and nay vote, there was never more than 115 members in the cham- ber on the hours that the check made. The purpose of the check ‘wv4s not to attempt to show that meinbers of the Héuse were loafing, but simply to apply to the House a method cf investigation that one of sub- committees had used in checking up on -the justices of the District of Columbia Supreme Court. This subcommittee, the tions subcommittee that District appropriation bill. reau of Efficiency investigators the courts with orders to watch judges and to report on the number of hours each sat on bench. Was i+ ILS appropria- writes tne sent Bu- into tne exact Later Representative Robert G Simmons (Republican), of N@praska, the chairman of the subcommittee, called the judges before him, and as- ssailed them for not putting in more | hours on the bench. He also threatened to block the bill to increase the number of judges here, although the President and almost every civic agency in the city has urged its passage so as to relieve congestion in the courts. The Bureau of Efficiency investi- gators who were sent into the courts by Chairman Simmons were not con- | cerned wkh how much work the | judges did, but simply with the |length of time each actually sat on the bench. The investigators saic nothing about the hours the judges toiled in their chambers, or at their homes at night. Their report had to do only with the visible presence of | the judges in their courtrooms. And this was the only consideration in The Post's check-up on the House. It was not concerned with how much the members did but simply with how many of them were where they actually could be seen, how many actually were in the chamber, and sitting in judgment on the Na- tion's business. | In the course of the week, a few committees or subcommittees held afternoon sessions, which obviously prevented their members from being |in the chamber. Among these was the House subcommittee that is handling the District. budget, the committee and the civil servicé ¢Om- mittee that is considering retip@ment legislation. At no time, however, were there more than 50 members thus tied up. i In making its check, The }counted the members in the chamber | three was 52. or about one-élghth of the! o'cloc’ and at 4 olciock in! that 23|counting on the stroke of noon, for | at ' an | after the | dance had . fallen |4 it was back up to 34 i that fon the previous day- | day By | creased j}at 4 o'clock, | House | which the members get their pet bilis | judiciary | | | their seats.

The first count was made shortly | noon Thursday, February 13. This showed that there were 33 mem- bers in the chamber To be terribly accurate about it, there were really only 32, for among those counted was former Representa- tive John Philip Hill. of Maryland, who says that Representative Vincent Palmisano beat him in the last elec- tion through fraud, and who is now | staged near the Capitol. ee ee ee BOOTLEGGERS HAVE DRY UNIT HANDBOOK Continued from Page 1, opinion as to how he thinks the booklets are getting into the hands of liquor law violators. .

He named Boston and Phila- delphia as places where conditions are described as “amazing” and men- tioned other communities. In the opinion of Senator Norris, the mere transfer of the Prohibition Bureau to the Department of Justice will not eradicate the evils of the sys- tem On this point he shares the views already expressed by various members of both Senate and House. He js satisfied that tHe trouble lies in “the evil influences of politics.” However, the senator did not under- take to elaborate this point to any considerable extent. He made it clear that he believes the great bulk of the corruption which has followed in the wake of the eighteenth amendment and the Volstead act cue to the fact that political leaders have been permitted to dictate appointments among the higher-ups in the enforce- ment organization throughout the States Says “Evils” Can Be Shown. le Le ) Senator Norris is confident that the extent of these “evils would quickly be disclosed if the judiciary commit- tee were authorized by the Senate to proceed with the proposed investiga- tion. With the facts disclosed, he feels that the President would find his hands strengthened in refusing to listen to the dictate of politicians in the matter of appointments. With regard to the transfer of the Prohibition Bureau to the Depart- ment of Justice, Senator Norris said: “The same conditions will prevail there unless the President settles on a determined policy to let nothing in- terfere with real enforcemént. There will be no change and no improve- ment otherwise. The impetus to real improvement. must come from the top-—thge President. “7 should think that any man in- terested in decency, whether wet or | dry, would want the facts of such a distressing situation known, no mat- ter who they hit.” In these words Senator Norris thal- lenged those administration leaders who have attempted to head off the proposed investigation. These leaders contend that further investigation at this time would merely add to general confusion and accomplish no real good Lively Debate Promised. Senators Norris and Wheeler and many senators do not agree with this view, and when the transfer Dill comes before the Senate, a redhot prohibition debate is forecast. They can not concede that a searching in- vestigation * by Senate committee would embarrass enforcement.

N.W. contrary, they contend that dis- closure of ‘the facts and the truth would be of very great assistance to the new regime after the bureau Is transferred from the Treasury De- partment to the Department of Jus- tice. Senator Norris obviously believes that prohibition can be enforced, as- suming that the President is prepared to take hold of the matter seriously and with a firm hand. Not a few senators who vote and talk dry are willing to say confiden- tially that the present situation with regard to prohibition can not con- tinue—that it must improve greatly and quickly or some change must be made. Should an investigation be held, it will have the authority of.the Senate behind it, differing in this respect from the hearings now being held from week to week by the House ju- diciary committee, which are purely voluntary, merely affording an oppor- tunity for proponents and opponents of repeal or modification to express their views. ‘Danville Council Votes $79,990 Street Program Special to The Washington Post.

ANTICHURCH DRIVE BY SOVIETS CAUSES WORLD TO PROTEST Epistle of Pope Pius Citing Alleged Repressions Calls for Prayers. EPISCOPAL, LUTHERAN, JEWISH LEADERS OBJECT Archbishop of Canterbury’s Resolution Is Adopted © by Convocation. Soviet Russia's campaign against re- ligion has drawn during the last two weeks protests from the chief churches of the Western world, including the Catholic, Anglican, Protestant Episco- pal, Jewish and Lutheran. These pro- tests are collated below. Catholic. ‘The protest of Pope Piu XI took the form of an epistle addressed to Car- dinal Basilio Pompilj, Bishop of Vel- fetri and vicar gene Was published on bruary 8 in the Osservatore Romano, the official Vati- can organ. Those portions of the textual translation of the Pope’s letter which are available follow: “We are deeply moved by the hor- rible and sacrilegious crimes repeated dafly and daily becoming mare griev- ous’ a st God and the souls of the gteat Russian population, so dear to our heart, inasmuch as they include so many..devoted sons and ministers of this’: Holy Catholic Apostolic Church. Some are devout and generous even unto heroism and martyrdom. . “From the beginning of our pontifi- cate, following the example of our predecessor, Benedict XV, we have ected to increase the forces calculated to stop the terrible persecutions and to guard this people from harm. We hastened to ask the governments which were represented at the Genoa confer- ence to agree upon a declaration that, in recognizing the Soviet government, the various governments exact the fol- lowing conditions within Russia: Free- dom of conscience, liberty of worship and inviolability of church property. '“Unfortunately these three points, Once enjoyed by the hierarchy sepa- rated from Catholic union, were not pressed after Genoa, due to tempore] interests. Alas, our direct interven- tion was rejected, an intervention to save from destruction sacred vessels and ikons which form a treasure dear to the hearts of all Russians. “In many cases we have had the consolation of having accomplished something, of having suecored the head of that hierarchy unfortunately separated from our unity, the Pa- triarch Tikhon, while the sufferings of the Catholic world saved from hunger and horrible death more than 150,000 children nourished daily by our offerings. “We salute most particularly those, our dearest sons, Catholic priests and religious men imprisoned, deported, condemned to forced labor, with their bishops, the venerable Boleslav Sloskan and Alexander Frison, to- ‘gether with Leonidas Therdorov, our Catholic ex-archbishop and represen- tative for the Slav rite. Those or- ganizers of the campaign of atheism and antireligion aim above all to the perversion of youth, abusing their in- experience and ignorance. ’ “Instead of im ing instruction, knowledge and ivilization which, like honesty, justice and even well being, cannot prosper without relig- ion,- they are o @ so-call gue of Godless Militants, dissim- : ulating their moral culture and even their economic decadence. Children are taught to denounce their own parents and to destroy and besmirch religions buildings and emblems, and above all ® contaminate their own souls with all vices and.the most shameful materialistic aberation. All these organizers and promoters are anxious to hit religion and are bring- ing about the ruin of souls and of human nature. “We have not ceased to prey every day, and have urged others to pray for the millions of souls purchased b the blood of Christ, which are pushe and almost forced to profane their oes: “In. order to make every possible effort toward acts of reparation for} al] thees sacrilegious outrages and to encourage the whole world to do likewise, we have decided to go to our Basilica of St. Peter’s on March 19, St. Joseph's day, and to ceje- brate a mass of expiration and propitiation and reparation over the tomb of St. Peter the Apostle, to mfort our beloved Russian people, so that this great tribulation may at,:last end and individual peoples may return to the Savior, Jesus Christ. We will implore the Blessed Virgin and Sf. Joseph, patron of the universal church and special protec- tor of the Russians, and to the holi- est angels, St. John the Baptist, St. Nicholas, St. Basil, St. John, St. Chrysostom and S8t. Cyril and other saints, especially St. Theresa, to whom *we have particularly entrusted the future of those Russian souls. “Requesting you to give the nec- essary orders, we hope that not only the clergy and laity of Rome, but even all of our brethren in the Caho- lie episconei. and the whole Chris- ‘an werid, will join in our suppli- “ons, either on that day or on me other holy day.” Protestant Episcopal.

S. Age-Old Question of Providing for Civil Service Workers Crops Up Again as Hoover Seeks to Remedy Inadequacy of Present System; Employes Are Divided. By EDWARD T. FOLLIARD. To the many other legislative bat- tles that President Hoover has pre- cipitated is now added a tug-of-war over a civil service retirement system. The President believes trat the present system is inadequate and ought to be liberalized. He began thinking about the problem, as a matter of fact, long before he entered the White House. The conviction that a better system was needed came to him when he was Secretary of Commerce. All around him he saw aged workers who should be at home in their rocking chairs. They were clinging to their jobs, he learned, because they were afraid to quit, be- cause they feared that the small re- tirement annulity that they would get would not permit them to quit. And so a few months ago, the Presi- dent called in an expert of the Bureau 1 in Rome, which | of Efficiency, outlined to him his views on the problem, and directed him to draft a new retirement bill. Two weks ago this was introduced by Chairman Lehlbach, of the House civil service committee, and now is known as the Lehlbach bill. The bill which this was designed to supplant is known as the Dale bill, which was introduced by Chairman Dale, of the Senate civil service com- mittee. Today the half-million workers in the Federal service are divided into two camps, one clamoring for the Lehibach bill and the other insisting on the passage of the Dale bill. How the fight will end it is too early to forecast, but there is a strong pogsi- bility that there will be no legislation at all. However, it is not surprising that the question should cause a row. It is not always an easy matter to get complete harmony when the army you are dealing with is made up of every- thing from a charwoman to an astronomer. And the chances are that the employes and their cham- pions in Congress still will be quar- reling over retirement 100 years from now. For no matter how new retirement is in our own government service, it is an old, old problem in the coun- tries of Europe. Austria has been dealing with it for 300 years, and England, Germany and France for nearly the same length of time. Like whisky, retirement systems improve with age, and today nearly all ef the European systems appear to be more liberal than our own. But before entertaining into a dis- cussion of these, let us ask, what are the objects of a retirement system? Briefly, they are as follows: First, the elimination from the ac- tive .personnel of those who have lost their efficiency because of ad- vancing age or long service. Second, the elimination of those who have lost their efficiency in earlier life because of accident or disease. Third, the improvement of the morale of the remainder. Fourth, the retention in the service of the best of its present employes, many of whom in the absence of such a system resign to accept positions elsewhere. Fifth, the attraction to the service of a higher grade of men. In a report compiled for the Per- sonnel Classification Board, Frederick F. Blachly and Miriam E. Oatman, of the Institute for Government Re- Continued on Page 18, Column 6. SOVIET CONSIDERING BANNING U5. BUUKD Capitalistic Ideology Is Per- meating Outside Novels, Is View. — LEWIS IS IN DISREPUTE Moscow, Feb. 22 (N.Y.W.NS.)— Should Soviet publishing houses translate and publish in Russia novels of American writers? This question is now being widely discussed in Soviet leading circles. The impression prevails here that the entire European and American litera- ture is permeated with capitalistic ideology and that, when translated into Russian, might have an unde- sired effect upon the minds of Soviet readers. It is believed that it might even disorganize their Communistic way of thinking and shake their he- lief in Communistic theories. Hence there is now on foot a move- ment to discontinue the translation of foreign writers or publication of their work, Those supporting this movement point out that even Sin- clair Lewis, who was considered, in the Soviet a radical writer and whose work has been translated and widely read by thousands throughout the Soviet, must now be looked upon as a “100 per cent small Burgeoise author.” Theodore Drieger’s “Ameri- can Tragedy” is consfdered here a superficial literary creation. the movement to eliminate Amer- ican and east European literature is, however, being strongly opposed by Anatoly Lunacharsky, the recently re- signed Soviet commissary of educa- tion, who is now the editer in chief of the two largest publishing houses, “Academy” and “Land and Factery.” In a recent statement he said: “We can not put a Chinese wall be- tween ourselves and the rest of the world so far as culture is concerned. Isolating ourselves from Americay and European literature would be equal to our declaring war against the world’s culture and this is an absolute ab- surdity.” Mr. Lunarcharsky is ironical about those Sovieteers; who claim that at present the Soviet has nothing to learn from Europe and America in culture. He says: “Those who think so do not under- stand what they are talking about. None can deny the value of the old European literature. We may consider ourselves the vanguard of humanity, but this doesn’t mean that we have to break away from humanity. On the contrary it is our duty to study American and European life, through their literature.” ; He added that the houses which he supervises will continue to pub- lish foreign literature translated into Russian (Copyright, 1930.)

VOYAGERS AID COUPLE Chicago, Iil., Feb. 22 (A.P.).—Alone on burned and fire-blackened rocks, 60@ miles west of the Americas, a physician and philosopher, Frederich Ritter, of Berlin, Gérmany, will live his own life hereafter, and with his helpmate, Dore Koervin Ritter, try to find on a desert island the peace that modern civilization denies. With a pick and shovel and a bag of seeds in one hand, with a volume of Lao-Tse, the ancient Chinese mystic, in the other, Ritter left a brilliant career in Germany, a proffered pro- fessorship at Freiburg, a chance for fame through his expertments in nu- trition and came six months ago to the no-man’s Jand of lava and black beaches that lies astride the Equator gar in the Pacific off Ecuador. When the yacht Mizpah, of Chicago, dropped her anchor a half-mile off the shore of Charles Island among the Galapagos three weeks ago, the Ritters were in trouble. Their stores and implements, brought painfully from Germany and Ecuador ani cached beside the sea, had been taken by a passing plunderer, and to their garden among the hills of the interior back luck had come, Note Found in Berrel. They had gone inland to be near. drinking water, but Ritter gashed his arm in a fall on a sharp sickle, in- jured his leg and his compar'on suf- fered from a scarred and torn knee where she fell on the splintered lava. There remote Utopia was totterin; when the Mizpah entered the open harbor with her commander, Eugene F. McDonald, jr., an exploring party ef six friends and a crew of 27 men and a few weeks more of waiting would have found them in desperate need. A note in German told the story. Addressed to the captain of a little trading vessel that sometimes comes from Guayaquil, it asked for help. The note was five days old when found in a barrel on the beach which is used as a mail box for the whalers and sea wanderers. Two searching parties left the ship next day. One, led by the writer, moved inland up a sparse broken trail over the gray veldt and barren gulches toward the hills. Live Without Meat. Voices were heard after more than an hour’s marching. Two figures emerged from the mosquite brush along the trail. “Gott sei dank” called one of them. The other, a slender girl, danced joyfully forward. They were the Ritters. By a spring that flows suddenly out of the hills the Ritters are living. Their shelter is a makeshift tent. Their stores and implements were few. But their books are many and deeply marked by use. And their garden is their pride, for the Ritters’ life depends upon their garden. They are vegetarians. No fish, no turtles, eggs. No wild pig, no birds, no wild goat with which the land abounds, will do as food for them. “We have come down here to live our own lives” said Dr. Ritter when asked why he had forsaken civiliza- tion. “We keep a diary and we are experimenting somewhat on the ef- fects of light and uncooked food on the human system; but we came to live a iife of contemplation, of mut- ual love, and simple work with nat- ural things.

FEDERAL ENACTION OF BUS LEGTOLATION 1 NOW PREDICTED Couzens-Parker Bill Upheld by Proponents as Vital to Transportation. INTERSTATE TRAVEL WILL BE REGULATED Correction of Abuses Seen as Principal Benefit of Proposed Measure. By WILLIAM ULLMAN. To regulate or not to regulate the interstate bus lines throughout the country is the decision that Congress | is called = to make, likelihood that the national legisila-.— ture will lay down a set of rules for the conduct of this widely used mode of transportation. | Just how far Congress will go, of course, can not be stated with the. with the) proposal still in the legislative hop- | ] per, but if the proponents of the Couzens-Parker bill have their way | the lines that operate across the State boundaries will be regulated by the Federal Government with admin- istration of the law confided to the Interstate Commerce Commission and joint boards composed of represen- tatives of State regulatory bodies al- ready functioning. There has been some vigorous op- position to the measure, but it has been given the approval in general of the National Association of Rail- road and Utilities Commissioners representing the States, the National Association of Motor Bus Operators, the American Association of Railway Executives, the American Electric Railway Association, the American Shortline Railroad Association, and the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce. While advocating modi- fication here and there, these organi- zations, directly interested in the de- velopment and upbuilding of this believe that the proposal fills a need Efficient Agency Is Goal. The Couzens-Parker bill is sup- maintenance of efficient transport agencies. Some predicate their ap- proval on the ground that interstate bus lines are not amenable to exist- ing State regulatory agencies and have been held s0 by the courts riding public but also to the well- managed and efficiently operated companies which have large capital at stake and endeayor to maintain their operations on a sound basis. That the interests at stake have grown to tremendous proportions is evidenced by the broad ramifications of one company engaged in transcon- tinental service. Daily the buses of this company traverse a distance that is equivalent to more than three times around the globe. The prosperity of such an enterprise, it is pointed out, depends upon its ability to maintain a high standard of efficiency and to insure the safety, comfort and con- | venience of its patrons. A company as extensive as this one, employing about 800 drivers, main- taining vast service establishments along its lines, and endeavoring prop- erly to care for its equipment, stands to suffer a great deal from the wildcat or comfort of his passengers. The fly- by-night promoter, it is declared by those who favor Federal regulation, is to be feared for what he can do to undermine public confidence in bus transportation, and his damage is done not only to the large enterprise, but to the small one too. View of Bill's Opponents. Some oppenents of the Couzens- Parker bill, or rather of the form of regulation it provides,_believe that it taken too soon. Others emphatically oppose regulation of rates and ob- ject to the provisions in the bill which requires the Interstate Commerce Commission to take into account ex- isting transportation service in the is- suance of certificates of public con- venience and necesisty, but in the case of a spokesman for the automobile in- dustry, it was agreed that experience Considerable discussion regarding the bill has centered around the issu- ance of certificates of convenience and necessity. As the bill was drawn, these are prerequisites to legal operation of buses in interstate commerce. The joint boards and the commission are given broad powers in exercising con- trol over authorized operations. The bill provides that they “may attach to the exercise of the rights granted thereby such reasonable terms and conditions as in their judgment the public interest may require.” These agencies are empowered to designate the routes over which the motor car- riers may operate and their fixed ter- mini. They may further proceed against any operator who violates the regulatory law and after hearing re- voke his certificate. That there have been *abuses among operators who by no means are representative of the motor transportation industry is not denied. There are cases on record of drivers remaining at the wheel 18 or 20 hours without relief. But these are instances that aré becoming less frequent. Abuses Are Described. The counsel for a transcontinental bus line who appeared before the House interstate commerce commit- tee seemed to think that lack of an adequate regulatory law provided op- portunity for some abuses. He cited subterfuges resorted to by some ir- responsible operators whose regular business lies within one State. To escape the jurisdiction of the State commission, such an operator, he stated, may run a few buses across the state line and claim to be en- gaged in interstate service. And the courts will back up his contention. According to another witness be- | fore the House committee, within the last year the regulatory boards of Missouri, Ohio, Tennessee, Virginia, South Carolina, Iowa, and Michigan have been enjoined from imposing regulation on interstate operators As this man, the representative of a tra. tion company, ted out, anything short of tion simi- lar to that proposed the Couzens- Parker bill would be ineffective, and he opposed the suggestion that regulation should be limited only to . 2 » « e © Calvin Coolidge’s congressional dis- no easy task and they were both on | the verge of acute brain fag can setback. the Republican stalwarts of the Mas- sachusetts delegation, in on the plan La Guardia was presenting the offi- Massachusetts upset.

Ex- senators long regarded as politi- cally dead and buried are bobbing up everywhere to file their applications for mem p. Some may make the grade and others will be recon- signed to oblivion. We have ex-Senator Peter Gerry, of Rhode Island; ex-Senator Bayard, of Delaware; ex-Senator Vare, in Penn- sylvania; ex-Senator Neely, of West Mig, and ex-Senator Ham Lewis, in Illinois, all avowed candidates for return to the Senate. For two cents, * By the $7th Senator Gus Stanley, another “ex,” would get | wet, and the wetter of the two won. | into the Kentucky race, and it would not take much more to induce ex- Senator Atlee Pomerene to toss his hat into the ring in Ohio. The latest applicant for membership in the comeback club is ex-Senator William M. Butler, of Massachusetts one-time chairman of the Republican national committee. He aspires to the seat now occupied by Fred Gillett, who is voluntarily retiring from the po- litical arena. Butler is a capable citi- zen, but he has never distinguished himself as a vote-getter. He obtained his seat in the Senate by appointment to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Henry Cabot Lodge. Two years later he was beaten by Dave Walsh, notwithstanding the open sup- /port of his friend, Calvin Coolidge, | then President of the United States. Butler, I am told, has a theory he wants to put to test in the approach- | ing primary and election. He thinks that in his campaign in 1926 he was heavily handicapped by his position as chairman of the Republican na- tional committee and his close rela- tions with Coolidge. Now that both he and Coolidge are private citizens. | he feels he can make a better show- ing as a campaigner. Within a month. says Butler. he will meet the liquor issue squarely.

B Friday ETTER illustration of how trivi- alities shape history could hard- ly be imagined than that fur- nished by the fight on Charies Evans. Hughes. When Hughes’ nomination was submitted to the Senate prediction was made generally there wouldn't be half a dozen votes against confirmation. The judiciary ‘committee pondered over it several days and then reported in favor of approving the nomination. All was in readiness to confirm Mr. Hughes, and then came one of those seem- ingly inconsequential and ridiculous incidents which sometimes play such a large part in the trend of events. Cole Blease’s rich imagination ran amuck and gave him the wild notion that there was something “queer” about the illness of Mr. Taft and the rather unexpected appointment of Mr. Hughes. Cole wanted Mr. [aft to reconsider his resignation and re- turn to the bench. When Jim son proposed immediate action on Hughes’ nomination, Cole objected. He would oppose confirmation, said, until they showed him a doc- tor’s certificate of Mr. Taft's condi- tion. him. When Cole gets an idea like that in his head it usually takes days to talk him out of it Meanwhile. the opposition to Hughes. springing from a tiny group of insurgents. began to grow. Each hour’s delay gave it increased strength. By the time they were able to convince Cole Blease that Taft was critically ill, the opposition had reached truly formidable proportions and one of the most spectacular par- liamentary battles in the Senate's history resulted. It would have been a mild and colorless affair if Jim Watson had hed a doctor’s certificate of Taft's ,condition to hand to Blease when the Hughes nomination was first brought up There were several able speeches in the course of debate. By far the best of the speeches on the defense side was made by the newcomer. Glenn, of Illinois. If he continues to display the talent he showed in the debate on Hughes the country will hear a good deal more of him. M Saturday.

Shanghai, China, Feb. 22 (A.P.).— The emancipation of women in China has extended to the leadership of pirate and bandit hordes. For several years two women about |30 years of age have been the guiding ‘influences in the operation of two |large Chinese bands of criminals. One | ,is the chief of a pirate gang operat- ing along the South China coast, and \the other, a terrorist Amazon known 'as “Widow Chang,” is the leader of a small bandit army in western Honan | province. Several military leaders have sent soldiers to catch each of thé women, but without success. Both say they are invunerable to bullets, and cone tinue to make raid after raid, taking 'what suits them and slaying all who offer resistance. “Widow Chang” is perhaps the bet- ter known of this strange pair. Ace |cording to stories printed about her |in the Chinese press, she once was the wife of a wealthy merchant who was robbed and killed by bandits. She became partly insane, turned bandit as a means of revenue and now heads one of the largest gangs in Honan. Refuses Honan Offers. | §$8o successful has “The Widow” _been in her criminal en‘erprises that several Honan military authorities have made open attempts to recruit her, offering a high rank if she would 'give up her life of banditry. A curt refusal has been her reply all such | advances. In some districts where the widow operates, she is called “Marshal Chang” by the common people and her subordinates, with whom she is exceptionally popular. She is said to give money freely to the poor. Missionaries, who have sometimes been the objects of her raids, report |that she plasters towns through which she passes with bright-colored posters bearing such slogans as “Rob the Rich,” and “Save the Poor.” Is Mystery Woman.

For 48 hours she stood guard with her pirates, and, according to reports, even took turns at the wheel, reliev- ing the Japanese pilot. whom she kept on the job at the point of a pistol. Putting into a small bay above Kongkong, she took her men ashore and presumably fled into the interior. This is her last known adventure. Nothing has been heard from her since, but the Canton and Honkong authorities are not so sure she will not appear again soon.

THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1930. ) White EW YORK, Feb. 22.—"How can | N I become successful and famous in New York?” _ The question is asked me frequent!y by readers of the various publications 'for which I write. It is directed at ime because I am a kindly old soul | who will anawer letters, rather than | because of an assumption that I have | reached a state of affluent fame. Here- tofore, I have answered usually “By ' doing your work especially well,” bSut I have always known it was a weak. Now, after much | side-stepping reply. observation, I [consideration and would say: “By working hard and not over- loading yourself with family entangle- | ments.” The concluding admonition is the _kick in the cocktail. What do I mean |by it? Ill tell you. It is based on the oid saying, “He travels fastest | who travels alone.” This is a pert age in the big city. | Especially is this true in literary cir- cles. The writer who can be pert ‘without caring what .people—includ- ling his boss—think, can get in the | Public eye quickly. And who fears beg losing of a job if he is single or, | at least, childless? | Equip a man with a wife and a ‘bunch of kids and he is not a free | and independent agent. He must feed and clothe them; hencé, unless he has a private fortune or can look to rela- tives for help, he must foster that ob. ) Then further, he is enmeshed, much of his time, in family arguments and plans and they make it difficult for him to concentrate on his writing. To the absence of family entangle- ments I ascribe, to a large extent, the success of numerous of the current literary lights here. George Jean Na- than, famed critic, never married, and if his side kick, Henry L. Menck- en, has a family I never heard of it. Others not handicapped by youngsters to raise are Alexander Woolcott, George S. Kaufman, Charles Darnton, John Anderson, O. O. McIntyre, Rob- ert Garland, Eurene Kelcey Allen, |Mark Hellinger, Sidney Skolsky, Bay- ‘ard Veiller, Martin Brown, Preston Sturges, Samuel Shipman, Rita Wei- 'man, Fanny Hurst and Edna Ferber. Exceptions to the Rule. | | There are exceptions to the rule, of course. Walter Winchell has a wife and several children, but he manages to get about the Broadway district at all times of night nevertheless. Ethe] Barrymore, George M. Cohan and Otto Harbach have families and have been immensely successful just the same. Unfortunately, if that is a good word here, the same condition obtains in various walks of life in New York and other large cities. Lee Shubert, one of the greatest generals the théat- rical business ever knew, has never married. For years he has devoted his /every waking moment to his interests, which he never could have done had he had a family. A. L. Erlanger, whose business acumen is known the world over, never fiad any children. Others who have never known what it is to be a parent are Mrs. Fiske, Katherine Cornell, Jane Cowl, Eve Le- Gallienne, Earl Carroll, George White, Sam Harris, Daniel Frohman, Gilbert Miller, Plorence Reed, Arthur Hop- kins, Edgar Selwyn, Brock Pemberton, A. H. Woods, Jed Harris, Charles Dil- lingham, Morris Gest, Dorothy Hall, Marie Saxon and, to enter the field of politics, Mayor James J. Walker. This is not an argument in favor of _birth control; it is merely a statement |of fact. The writer of this has a wife and two children.

The play is extremely well-acted by Spencer Tracy and others and the direction is perfect. But I fear for its future. Life outside the theater is file-like enough.

The following resolution was unanl- mously adopted by Upper House of the Convocation of Canterbury, moved by the Archbishop of Canterbury: “That the house records its indig- nant protest against the persecution of all who profess any form of religion in Russia, offers its most deep and heartfelt sympathy to those suffering through this persecution, calls upon all members of the church to unite in prayer to God in their behalf, and expresses its conviction that if the Soviet government desires satisfactory relations with this country to be maintained, it must observe the prin- ciples of just and humane civill- zation.” Available text of address to the convocation by Dr. Cosmo Gordon Lang, Archbishop of Canterbury: “The Soviet government has a rep- resentative in this country.

Inquiry into the reasons for its excellence reveals several impor- tant factors. * * * A supply of highly educated ‘career men’ has mever been lacking. This has been due, no doubt, to the fact that eco- nomic attractions of private enter- prise as against the public service are not so great tn Germany as ia newer countries like the United States. Moreover, the contempt for business and the aristocratic traditions which prevailed in Germany under the old regime left the public service one of the few careers open to the sons of the artistocracy and the higher gocial | classes. Provisions Are Adequate. “Adequate provisions have been _ made for retiring superannuatec. em- ployes and pensioning those aisabled | while in the service.

M WASHINGTON: SUNDAY. FEBRUARY 23, 1930. NAVY BOXERS GAIN 4-3 DECISION OVER , ORGETOWN SHARKEY 3-1 CHOICE WITH FIGHT LOOMING AS FINANCIAL “FLOP” Opinion Is Unanimous Against Scott; Seat Sales Meager. Most Disappointing, | Says Carey; Mag- nolia to Referee. al aa By ALAN GOULD. .. Associated Press Sports Editor). IAMI, Fia., Feb. (A.P.).— M Lou Magnolia, the acrobatic and colorful New York referee, who lifted the glove of Jack Sharkey = a token of victory over Willie Stribling in the first battle of the patms a year age, will_be the third man in the ring next Thursday night when the Boston sailor meets Phil Scott, the British champion, in the ‘35-round match topping the second Winter fistic festival here. Confirmation of Magnolia’s selec- tion, announced by the Miami Boxing Commission, after a conference with the rival managers, was the only definite development of a day which saw most of the combatants sfart tap- eying off on their workouts, re- éniorcements arrive in substantial humbers among the experts 4s well as notables, and a continued depression in the vital region of the box of- ice. Fechnicality Feared By Johnston. Magnolia, originally aed ~~ suggested by Sharkey’s manager, Johnny Buckiecy. | was accepted for Scott by his manager, | Jimmy Johnson, with the under- atanding that the three confer Mon- | Squash Racquetters day with the boxing commission to remove any question about regula- tions. Johnston reiterated his state- ‘ment that he does not desire to have | such | Scott win on any technicality, as a foul. “If we lose, we want to lose on a pert opinion, thoroughly canvassed today, indicated more than half of the 200 newspapermen here from various parts of the country hald the belief that this is the way Scott will lose. Not a single unqualified selec- tion of Scott to win by any means. has been registered by any of the as- sembled critics, a situation that prob- ably is almost without parallel for a heavyweight fight having so im- portant a bearing on the champion- ship situation. Sullivan-Corbett Betting Recalled. The best that these camp follow- ess can say for Phil ‘s that his chances of lasting the 15-round limit, or of getting “the nod” on points on an outside chance, will-be “improved” if he manages to stick to his feet for a half dozen rounds. Old-timers recal] that John L. Sul- livan was the unanimous choice to ‘beat James J. Corbett at New Orleans Jn °1892, when the result completely aipset predictions. There have been sufficient other upsets of startling character to furnish precedent for Scott to win but if he does, the shock will be heard from Miami to Timbuc- too. Sharkey was quoted a 3-to-l fayorite today, on the basis.of a waver - cf $9,000 to $3,000, reported by the | press headquarters to have been made by R. G. Wilson, of Boston, with L. G. Fanning and Gerald Wooster, both of”Macon, Ga., taking the short end. The same parties wagered $3,000 at even money that Sharkey wins by a knockout in six rounds. With this situation respecting the ‘main go anc in spite of a strong sup- porting cast headed by Victorio Cam- polo and Johnny Risko, semifinalists, the Madison Square Garden Corpora- tion faces its biggest financial failure in the heavyweight business since the Tunney-Heeney championship flop in 1928. The reasons in both instances appear identical, based on a lack of competiti’: thrills, in spite of the angle of international rivalry between Britain and America: ’ May Be Lucky to Gross $200,000. With the show only five nights away, the prevailing opinion tonight was that it would be fortuna to gros saround $200,000, only half of last winter's total. About a week ago de- tailed box office figures were given to the press, indicating an advance sale of $163,000. It was learned definitely today that this figure not only has not yet been reached, but that the actual cash receipts so far are hardly more than $100,000, probably Jess. Although William F. Carey, Garden president, declined to deny or confirm these figures or offer any substitutes, e frankly admitted the advance sale been “most disappointing.” He indicated the Garden would consider itself fortunate if it breaks. even on the venture. Mr. Carey, because’ of the necessity of a trip to South Amer- iga.on business, will not see the fight. He leaves Miami next Monday for New York and is booked to sail Feb- tuary 28. . More optimistic is Prank J. Bruen,. veneral manager of the Garden, who has devoted most of his time to man- peomen’ of the Hialeah race track. ruen has insisted all along that the fight will draw as big a gate as 1929. Fe reiterated tonight his statement that the next few days would see a S00m in box office business. The South apparently has by no means manifested as much interest ia this year’s fight as the Dixie fans did a year ago when they had Young Stribling to support in .the bout. Moveover, it is freely admitted that the efforts to arouse interest in ‘he fashionable centers such as Palin Beach have been distinctly disap- Pointing.

EW YORK, Feb. 22 (A.P.).— N Where the boys with alleged information on fistic matters gather the word is out that Jack Dempsey will drop his promotional projects this summer and take one more fli if not at the heavyweight title at least at the huge person of Primo Carnero. There a note of skepticism, of course, use “Old John” has been coy but umrevealing about such prop- ositions since the night of the “long count” encounter with Gene Tunney in Chicago in 1927. However, if the old man mauler is ever to quit the footlights for one more battle, it is generally accepted that he must do it now or forever hold- his peace henceforth. . The National Boxing Association asked for Dempsey'’s final word before forming ics own opinieh of the title claims that will arise from the win- ner of Thursday's battle in Miami be- won 14; drawn, 3. title holder, and Phil Scott, the Brit- ish champion. Jack-was evasive and promised definite word soon. But there is other evidence on the sub- ject. Dempsey, with the bulk of his tre- mendous ring earnings tied up in trust funds, has lost approximately $50,000 as a prdmoter in Chicago. He has no desire to tangle with any young, cagey. punching fellow of the Sharkey type now that much of his speed and endurance has gone over the hill of age. ' But in Primo Carnera, the ambling Alp from Venice who has been iron- ing out mediocre rivals in a round or two in widespread districts, Demp- sey’s supporters see a perfect foil. Jack ‘probably retains most of his murderous punching power. He loves to hack at big fellows with wide open bodies, and no one is sure as yet that this Carnera can really fight at all.

AVANNAH, Ga., Feb. 22 (A.P.). Horton Smith, the blond young golf wizard from Detroit, con- tinued his par-shattering play through the final two rounds here today to post a 278 for the 72 holes and win a one-stroke victory over Bobby Jones, national open king, in the $3,000 Savannah open. The 2l-year-old youngster, who learned his golf in the Missouri Ozarks, turned in cards of 70 and 71 for the two rounds today, and these scores, together with the 71 figure of Thursday's first round and the brilliant 66 yesterday, gave him the victor’s share of $1,000. As his scores indicates, the youthful money maker clung close to par and shot steady golf throughout the three-day grind. His 66 Friday was punctuated with brilliant shots. Jones Breaks Record In Morning. After breaking the course record with a great. 65 on his morning round, the Atlanta barrister faltered on the final round and took a 72. His 137 today, coupled with his 142 of the opening two rounds, gave him a final score of 279. Seven strokes behind the leader was Bobby Cruickshank, the canny cotch professional from Purchase, N. Y., wha took second prize money of $500. The little Scotchman scored a 69 on the final round to pull him- self into a preferred position. His 142 of today, with 143 yesterday, gave him a gross of 285. Al Espinosa, the veteran links wiz- ard from Chicago and young Ed Dud- ley, of Wilmington, Del., were tied for fourth place with 286. Al had 144-142 for his score, while Dudley paired a 141 yesterday with 145 to- day. J. Fairley Clark, Savannah profes- sional, who shot two great rounds of 68 and 69, blew up on the final 36 holes and had to be content with a three-cornered tie for sixth place. His 138 yesterday and 149 today gave him 287. Joe Turnesa, of New York, and “Wild Bill” Mehlhorn, of Pensa- cola, also had 287’s. ‘Two exponents of golf for cash Over Jones By a Stroke at Savannah Horton Smith (left), who triumphed by one stroke over Bobby Jones (right), in the Savannah open in the first tourney that brought the pair together since Jones won the national open last summer, from the Middle West——Neil McIntyre, of Indianapolis, and Ted Smith, of Lacrosse, Wis.—were bracketed at 288. Farrell Far Down With 289. Fla., former national open champion, who won the Pensacola event last week, could do no better than 143- 146—289, while Herman Barron, the 21-year-old professional from Port Chester, N. Y., had 145-145—290. Three cash players were clustered at the 291 mark. Jeff Adams, Sa- vannah professional, Harry Cooper, unattached, and Whiffy Cox, of Brooklyn, had this figure. Smith registered ten birdies as he while the runner-up, Bobby Jones, bad 13 birdies and an eagle.

Even when two of the home players sought to engage sev- eral of their rivals of the Buff and Blue in fisticuffs, Joe Mitchell's lads Stuck to the game they were playing and were found on the short end of the score at no time during the game.

Young Corbett Surprises With Victory Over Fields AN FRANCISCO, Feb. 22 (A.P.).— Young Corbett, of Fresno, Calif., reached the peak of a brilliant career here this afternoon when he won a ten-round decision over Jackie Fields, welterweight champion, in a nontitle bout, witnessed by 20,000 persons. The milling was fast and furious from start to finish, but Corbett’s ad- vantage in the early rounds found favor for him in the eyes of Referee James Griffin. Fields closed with*a rush that had his rival on the run in the ninth, and in the last canto the Fresno boy, was visibly tired and hanging on. Ringside opinion varied, and many veterans of the game the champion was at least entitled to a draw. A shower of cushions and pa- per programs in the ring followed the decision. ™ Taking the play away from his op- ponent with the opening gong, Cor- bett landed a left to the jaw that sent the title holder back on his heels. |} The Fresno boy's left-handed stvie puzzled Fielcs in the second and third sessions and he was on the, re- ceiving end of many jolting punches both to the face and body. Fields got going in the fourth and scored with rights to the jaw, to win the round, but Corbett came back in the fifth to outpunch his rival, mean- while tying him up in the clinches. Going into the ninth, Fields sensed he was on the short end, and he drove into Corbett with a two-handed attack. The tenth saw the title holder bore in viciously. He crowded Corbett from rope to rope, but the rally failed to sufficiently impress the referee. Threatening weather held down fair with the result that the gate receipts failed to establish a new record for Northern California. The gate. was estimated at .000, short ‘by 88,000 of the total Set by the James Jeffries-James Corbett heavy- 4 U.

By JACK ESPEY (Staff Correspondent of The Post). Anew Md., Feb, 22.—The Naval Academy's eleven-year record, unblemished by defeat fn a dual boxing match, was in dire dis- tress at the hands of Georgetown - versity’s boxing team tonight, ‘bat emerged intact, albeit cy, atthe end of the match, which found Na the winner of four of the seven . in which two victories are represented by forfeits. , Navy was the nominal winnet, but Georgetown won three of the five bouts fought. The 4,800 fo fans among the 20,000 who applied for tickets to McDonough Hall saw*Mike Tardugno, Charley Fish and ‘Leroy Bordeau carry off three of the fivede- cisions for the Hilltop with a dazzling display of mitt slinging, but they could not offset the defeats of Sack Tierney in the . middleweight roe 23 Mortis Dubofsky in the heavyweig division, and the two lighter weight bouts that Georgetown was foreed to default for lack of fighters. Dubofsky Unequal To Task. ; With the decision standing at-3-3 and the heavyweight battle the de- ciding fight, Dubofsky was unequal to the demand that he win; for Georgetown in the first fight of his career. The pudgy substitute guard of the Hilltoppers opposed Moon Chappie, Navy,sheavyweight, who had the advantage of height and reageh, and he was subjected to a beating In every round, although forcing ° the fight from the outset in a vain at- tempt to land a haymaker. Georgetown forfeited in the 116- pound class, refusing to allow the 110-pound Joe Villanova to enter the ring im a weakened condition. . The Hilltoppers also defaulted the 136- pound bout with Madden suffering an injury in training and Julicher, his alternate, being overweight. Extra Round Seemed Unnecessary. The crowd that jammed McDon- ough Hall was weak with reaction at the end of the BordeausSwan fight which the Georgetown full back won after an extra round that had seemed unnecessary with the lead he gained in the regulation three. The rugged Bordeau, oblivious punishment, rushed the previously undefeated Swan, the hardest hitter on the Navy squad, from the start, taking a smashing right to the jaw in the first round unflinchingly. He bludgeoned his way past Swan's) de- fense in the second round, but the Navy battler forced him to miss fre- quently. He raised a huge lump on Swan's eye in this round. The pair slugged toe to toe in «a wild melee at the start of the third round, and at the end; Swan went to his corner plainly groggy, but the judges ordered another round. The rugged Bordeau was the stronger in the extra round, and he had Swan bleeding from the mouth. A loud and approving cheer greeted the deei- sion at the end of the round. « M © aoe @s a result of solid the attendance for the outdoor af- }, In the bout previous. Navy had taken a 3-2 lead when Capt. Paul | Moret decisively outpointed Jack Tier- ney, Georgetown middleweight. The chunky Hilltopper was a target for Moret’s punches from the start, the Midshipman using height and to good advantage. ‘He reached - /ney consistently with long lefts to | the head and stomach.

IAMI, *Fla., Feb. 22 (A.P.).— Slashing his way through @ field of ten classy thorough- breds in record-shattering time, Jack Howard’s Islam today won the Miami Jockey Clob over a lightning fast track ut Hialeah Park. With the crowd of 15,000 fans al- most dumb from surprise, the 4-year- olo son of Porter literally ran the best of the handicap performers into the ground as he stepped the mile and eighth in 1:50 1-5. The time was one second faster than the mark hung up by War Eagle under 106 pounds on March 5, 1927. Islam had only 96 pounds in the saddle, a part of which was F. Dainty. Few of the vast. mob, however, had the forethought to back the colt. recently purchased by Howard from A. Sutro, with the result that he paid 20 to 1 to win, 8 to 1 to place and 4 to 1 to show. The lack of confi- dence was due to the fact that Islam’s last victory was back In the summer days of 1929. Sandy Ford Beaten 2 Lengths. Two lenghts back of the flying son of Porter at the finish was M. Shea's Sandy Ford, while another five lengths to the rear trailed Fairy Maiden in the silks of J. McGee. Partisan and Nearby, coupled as the G. D. Widener entry and made fa- vorites at 12 to 5, finished far back in the field as did Molasses Jane, the second choice in the wagering at 9 to 2. Islam got away behind the speed- ing Sandy Ford. The leaders were at the 6 furlong pole in 1:12 4-5, and were caught at the mile post in 1:37 3-5. The Shea entry led to the top of the stretch, where Islam took command to win by two lengths. Donnay, Favorite, Wins In Fair Grounds Feature New Orleans, La., Feb. 22 (A.P.).— Donnay, from the Rancocas Stable, won the George Washington Birthday Handicap, the feature of the program at the Fair Grounds today. Mrs. R. Pollard’s Uluniu was second and the Walbri Farm’s Strongheart, was third. The winner was the fa- vorite and paid $490 for $2. The purse was worth 82,420 to the win- ner’s owner; $500 to second; %250 third and $100 fourth, Ruane. Donnay raced far back during the first five furlongs, but then came forward and, closing with a rush through the stretch, passed Uluniu and Strongheart, winning easily by @ length. Uluniu showed speed from the start and outfinished ‘Strong- heart in the finish. The latter made a game effort to head the leaders, but did not have the speed. — RESULTS. 4 to 4, out; Snap, 112 (C.

ESPITE the fact that tt got oif to a poor start, the Washington Soccer Club can go tnto a tie for first place in the Washington Soc- cer League, wth Concord today if it can defeat the strong British United eleven. So ‘closely are the teams bunched that a victory for the Uniteds would put them in the lead of the pack. Concord holds the top rung wits 5 points at present, a scant 1-point margin over British United. Wash- ington Soccer Club ts in third place with 3 points and since a victory counts 2 pdints a win today wouid put the eleven, that a few weeks ago was considered hopelessly out of the running, on a par with the leaders. This match will be playea on the new field of the Washington Soccer Club, located on the Friends School athletic field in the 3900 block of Wisconsin avenue. The teams play about the same brand of the kicking game and a well-contested tilt is tn prospect. Ben Kail will referee. Rosedale Out to Avenge Former Loss. Rosedale will endeavor to avenge a bitter loss of a few weeks ago when it plays Marlboro in the Maryland town this afternoon. On the octas sion of the last meeting of thes€ clubs, Marlboro eked out a 2-to-1 victory in the last minute of play: Bill Castle will officiate. Gaelic-Americans and Rockville will meet in the only Washington and Southeastern District Soccer Associa- tion cup tie match this afternoon of the Monument Field. These teams have been trying since early in Janu- ary to. play the first round of the cup tourney, but inclement weather has prevented. J. Wilson will call the fouls. Another game scheduled for today that is attracting considerable ai- tention is the D. C. Kickers-Silver Spring match on the Silver Spring field. When these teams last met in a cup game, two extra periods were required before Silver Spring finally won by the narrow margin of 2 & 1. Edward Kruse will referee this, a Capital City League game. Postponements Causing Lengthy Season. With seven teams remaining in the Washington and Southeastern District cup tournament and the Capital City and Washington Soc- cer Leagues still requiring about four Sundays to complete their schedules, it appears that the soccerites will be treading on the toes of the oase- ball players before all championships are decided. It may be that the local associa- tion officials will have to petition the park officers to leave the soccer goals standing for a week or two longer than is usual in order to round out the schedules. Business Whirlwind Five Plays Stewart Business Whirlwinds will try to make it six straight when they play Stewart Brothers Five in a prelimi- nary game to Skinker Brothers at Sil- ver Spring Armory at 2 o’clock; the following players are urged to be pres- ent: Ryan, Lucas, Chase, Keefer, Hamilton, Lewis, Letvin, Ellis, Jones.

A THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1930. i crn ene ee a ee eee ONALS FACE SHORTAGE OF PITCHING AT CA. a an a ne ee a ee me MoundSquad Is Smallest In Years Practice for Batters Again Problem of Nat Manager. Johnson May Pitch to Hitters; To Use Altrock, Schacht. By FRANK H. YOUNG. N addition to having little in the way of promising new talent to look over, Manager Walter John- son admits that the Nationals will be handicapped in their training activi- ties at the Biloxi and Chattanooga camps, due to the shortage of pitch- ing material available. Last spring thirteen reported to the Tampa Spring headquarters, two additional “throw- ers” were picked up there, and, in ad- dition, Johnson, Schacht, Altrock, Milan and some of the other players had to be pressed into service. Both at the camp and after the Nats left Johnson remarked that he hoped he would never have to open another training season with such a limited number of pitchers. This spring will find him even more short- handed in this respect than he was last, as ohly twelve flingers are listed to show up, one being a young semi- pro just signed last week. Throwers Are Needed In Camp. Perhaps the average fan does not realize the importance of having plenty of heavers on hand at a spring camp, irrespective of their caliber. The reason pitching candidates are asked to report ahead of the other players is to enable them to-get the kinks out of their arms so that they can put’a little something on the ba by the time the other consignmen arrive. From then on, the flingers put on the finishing licks pitching to hit- ters and it is these daily and lengthy sessions at the tee which sharpens the batting eyes of those who are ex- pected to do most of the bingle pro- ducing when the pennant race starts. As only three Nationals were in the 800 hitting class last season, plenty of stick practice apparently is nec- essary, but with only eleven flingers available this appears to be out of the question, especially as Johnson must guard against giving Garland Braxton and “Sad Sam” Jones too much work. Al) of which indicates that the Nats hitters will have to let nature develop them to a certain ex- tent, and that they will start the race with much less practice under their belts than their opponents will have had. Expects Altrock and Schacht. Johnson is optimistic, but he has | to be. “We'll simply have to co the best we can,” he said last night in discussing the subject. “I have no idea of trying to do any pitching in regular games, but I can get in good enough shape to help out, and I'll still have the old reliables, Schacht and Altrock, to put in a few licks” It is possbile that Johnson May get by with the mound talent he has, but it is a certainty that he could do much better with more help. The training system calls for the batters to come up to the plate in turn in an endless chain, with the pitcher being changed at intervals of about ten minutes each. Between sore arms and weak arms, minor hurts and such ailments as bad colds and “tummy” aches, the entire squad rarely ever is available. To use the pitchers too hard is likely to do their salary wings harm, while, after the exhibition season starts, moundmen have to be saved for these games. Thus it will be seen that ‘there will be days when little batting prac- tice can be indulged in, and this lack of pitchers may prove to be more of a handicap than one would judge from a mere superficial glance at the roster. Here’s a case where Johns31i ‘s hoving that the adage, ‘practice makes perfect,” Premed nat apply. -= Deoviit Prep Swimmers Beaten in Baltimore Special to The Washington Post, Baltimore, Md., Feb, 22.—Captur- ing all seven of the events, Friends School natators easily outswam rep- resentatives of Devitt Prep, of Wash- ‘Ington, in the former's pool here this aiternoon, The score was 51 to 10.

When I wanted to talk on a matter That had seriously wrinkled my brow, I was told, by a clever young lady, “Mr. A is in conference now. So I called up another young lawyer, To suggest an important pow-wow, But the answer came back, quite distinctly, “Mr. B is in conference now.” Once more on the phone I kept calling, . For my hand had been put to the plow, But was told, without hesitation, “Mr. C is in conference now.” Again I essayed the endeavor, hough somewhat discouraged, I vow; The reply which I got was not cheering— | “Mr. D ia in conference now.” So out to the links I then hurried, To forget about business—and how! But I saw, when I walked o’er the fairways, All four were “in conference now.” week emphasizing the fact that, with one exception, the local golf clubs provide no equity in their rapidly increasing property values for their members, not only caused wide- Spread discussion Dut Was received everywhere with unanimous approval. It called attention to a condition which, it is generally conceded, ought ‘Im some way to be remedied. One of the results of the discussion was the disclosure of the fact that the board of governors of the Washington Golf and Country Club devoted some time at a recent meeting to the serious consideration of a method whereby the club members would possess a proprietary Interest in the ciud’s property. The case of this particular organi- gation is typical. When the present holdings were purchased the price of the land in the vicinity ranged from $200 to $400 an acre. Some time ago the late Admiral Rixey sold a tract immediately adjoining his residence, which overlooks the clubhouse, for £1.000 an acre, and still more re- cently there was a cash purchase of property on the Glebe road, which passes the club en route to the Chain Bridge, at $1,500 an acre. In the real estate development contiguous to the Club land is now selling at $2,000 an acre, Property of Club Has Increased in Value. It is evident, therefore, that the “property of the Washington Golf and “Country Club is worth a great deal ‘@nore today than ten years ago, but there is no provision by which the members of the club can benefit by this increased value. If the original “members had purchased stock which “represented an equity in the property, their investment would have proven most remunerative. As it is, when a member dies, resigns of moves away fhe has no asset whatever. ‘Nearly all the golf elubs organized in recent times have profited by the @xperience of the past and there is fecognition of the fact, not appe- elated ten or twenty years ago, that | @ golf course may cease to be pasture Jand and become suburban property. There are now innumerable instances Wiiere club members, purchasing *heir memberships at a reasonable price, have sold those memberships at a great profit. There is a club at Gouthampton, Long Island, for in- ‘@tance, where an original member- -e@iip costing $250 is now marketable wt $2,500. The value of a member- ‘ship in one of the Detroit clubs, whose holdings. are now almost in the heart of the city, has increased enormously. With bne or two ex- ceptions, possibly, there is not a ®lub in this section where the mem- hership represents anything but a total loss. Winchester Deal Interesting. Dr. T. J. W. Brown, of the Ban- mockburn Club, last week related the interesting story of the experience of a golf club recently organized in Winchester, Va. Twenty citizens of that town subscribed enough money to purchase sufficient acreage for a golf course. Having built the course, they admitted active members, but the syndicate which supplied the money will realize the benefits accru- Ing from an increased value of the property. This, of course, is as it should be, for they were entirely re- eponsible for the original investment. The trouble in this section is that elub members, even though the money which they originally con- ‘tributed, was applied to the purchase f he comment in this column fast annual meeting of the District Golf- Association,” he added, “which would result in a rotation of tournaments among the clubs and, if this is to be considered seriously, then our club will step aside this year. At any rate, if it is decided to hold our tourna- ment, we will try to arrange with the Bannockburn Club to have the dates of the fall tournaments advanced a couple of weeks. Our event last year was too late in the season, when the days were short, besides which we en- countered a stretch of miserable weather, a condition not so likely to happen at a date earlier in the fall. We realize that the first eight weeks of the spring season are completely filed, but if there should be a va- cancy at that time we might want to take ‘advantage of it, for the latter part of June is an ideal time.” McLeod Says, Watch Shute. “Watch out for Denny Shute.” Fred McLeod, professional of the Columbia Country Club, returned last week from his trip to California, where he played in the Professional Golfers’ Association annual cham- pionship, in the $25,000 open at Agua Caliente and in other events. He is enthusiastic over the golf displayed by Shute, who won the Los Angeles open, playing a remarkable game under adverse conditions of wind and rain. Shute, it will be remem- bered, led the field from the start and won with four strokes to spare. “Shute’s game,” said McLeod, “shows a tremendous amount of promise, and I look to see him away out in front. Of course, there was & great amount of talk on the Pacific Coast about Horton Smith and Craig Wood, but the latter is not keeping up his pace. Smith is not playing well but he is scoring weN—a distinc- tion with a difference. I mean that he is scoring low by reason of his remarkable chipping and fine put- ting. He is almost certain to go down in two strokes from any reasonable distance off the green and this helps his card.” Shute Plays to The Finish. When talking with Shute, McLeod confirmed a story which has become a tradition attached to that player. In the national amateur champion- ship at Flossmoor in 1923, Shute, having been admitted to eligibility by reason of his title as West Virginia amateur champion, qualified and played his first round against Eddie Held. When he entered the club- house at the end of the first 18 holes, he announced sadly that he was 1 down amd,.was, therefore, out of the tournament. “But you are playing a 36-hole match,” chorused the players in the grill room. “Is that so?” queried Shute. Then he went out for the second 18-hole round and defeated Held on the six- teenth green, 3 and 2. “It actually happened,” said Shute, who became a professional about two years ago, “and it shows how little I knew about national tournaments.” Then he laughed and told McLeod that never since that time has he given up a match before it was ac- tually lost. Clyde B. Asher, vice president of the Columbia Club, wired to D'Arcy Banagan, the assistant professional, last week that he was at Clearwater, Fla., with Roger Whiteford, L. W. Laudick and Horace G. Smithy, fei- low members of the club. Amoug other Columbia players now in Flor- ida are C. I. Putnam, A. S. Gardiner and Brig. Gen. Gilmore. pf the properties, have no tangible, Wonvertible evidence that they are | Stay in Washington, @tpckholders in the corporation. Fu- ture generations will reap all the profits of increased values. » «it was stated last week that the oard of governors of the Columbia Oountry Club will be asked to call a meeting of the club members in the mear future to consider a tentative proposition which will guarantee the members an equity in the club prop- @rty which will give the certificate of miembership a real value. At present $& has no significance whatever. The | Washington Golf and Country Club | Has not yet reached a definite conclu- sion as to how the problem will be polved, and it may take some time to evolve a satisfactory solution in the tase of the Columbia Club. The agi- Gation of the question ought to re- sult in the adoption of same plan Which can be carried into practical solution. Byrne Reappointed At Bannockburn. «The board of governors of the Ban- mockburn Club, appreciating the work done last year—the most successful yeer in the history of the club—has reappointed W. Fred Byrne chairman of the golf committee, Larry W. Moore chairman of the house committee, Dr. T. J. W. Brown chairman of the green committee, and Arthur P. Erb ehairman of the finance committee. * The annual meeting of the District of Columbia Golf Association will be Held at the Racquet Club on the eve- ming of March 10, the second Monday fn: March. Preliminary to this meet- Ing there will be a session of the ex- ecutive committee of the association mext Tuesday night at the residence @f Herbert T. Shannon, when tenta- tive dates for the club invitation fournements will be discussed in or- | turn, he had to admit that he had not der that a schedule may be presented | at the annual meeting. Other mat- fers will also receive consideration. From the present outlook, the as- | signment of dates will be simplified | on the seventeenth hole at Columbia by the likelihood that the Congres- | @jonal and Manor Clubs wil! not hold tournaments this year. The elimina- ‘tion of this year’s event at the Con- @ressional. Club has. been definitely @ecided upon, according to Gyy Ma- | g0n, chairman of the club’s golf and tournament committee, who adds that Hi, the future his club is likely to content itself with tournaments in alternate years. Manor May Not Stage Lnvitation Tourney. ‘When asked if the Manor Club would hold an invitation tournament Mext fall, Ray F.

This eliminates the tipping evil and is working out satisfactorily for all parties concerned.

ST HAPPENINGS IN MARYLAND AND VIRGIN CELEBRATE SILVER WEDDING | | BOND fooUe UnbeD Needs Are Put at $580,000 in Report Filed by Agents | of U.S. Education Board. LAWYERS WILL MEET | ARLINGTON COUNTY. RUREAU OF THE POST. Tel. Clar. 509. Clarendon. Va. A proposal for a bond issue totaling | $580,000 is embodied in a report filed | with the Arlington County school board. compiled by Dr. Frank M.| Phillips and W. S_ Deffenbaugh, of the United States Board of Education, to meet the needs of the present | erowded conditions of the public) achools of the county. In making the report public last) night, County School Superintendent | Fletcher Kemp stated that, while the | report has not been officially accepted | by the school board, indications are that it will be at the meeting of the board to be held Wednesday at the courthouse At this meeting, he | stated further. the board will con- sider ways and means of carrying out | the recommendations as pointed out | in the report. The report. in part, makes recom- mendations as follows: Beginning with the Washington Lee High School, which now has 26 classrooms, it 15 pointed out that it necessary to) use all available space including the | auditorium, shop library and teachers rooms, to take care of an enrollment totaling 1.300 pupils. | In addition to using all available space, it has been necessary to change hours of classes in order to give each pupil some share of instruction. Im- mediate relief is needed if the high quality of work. which is now being done. is to be continued. To build a new building would duplicate the site, the gymnasium, the auditorium, | and other facilities which now exist | and which may be used to advatnage even with a larger enrollment than | the school now has. Besides a large | high school unit can be handled with better economy than can two or more smaller units, the report sets out. It is recommended that the State | architects’ plans to build 42 addi | tional classrooms at a cost of $220,- 900 be approved and the addition be erected at an early date. A high school teacher in the United States has an average of about 23 pupils. At this rate it takes about 57 rooms to “house 1,300 pupils. Since this school has grown from an enrollment of about 100 in 1925 to 1,300 in 1930, i¢ is not likely that any of the 28 rooms will be unoccupied within the | w years. Trmenoctine on the conditions of the elementary schools the report shows owing: en Saary Clay School, with two | rooms. has an enrollment of 180 pu- | pils. It is recommended that this | building be enlarged to four addi- tional rooms at a cost of $20,000. It) is pointed out that with an addi- tional classroom at this school the | nt crowded condition at the Clarendon School would be greatly relieved. The Stonewall Jackson School at Bon Air, being another two-room pbuilding. should be increased to on | classrooms at an estimated cost fl $20,000, thus relieving the crowded | conditions at the Ballston School. The James Monroe School, now a four-room building taking care of 225 | pupils with five teachers. also shows | needs for additional rooms. It is rece | ommended that another story be added to this building, the cost being about $25,000. The Nellie Custis School, now a four-room building, also shows needs for enlargement. Due to the annexa- tion of part of that section by the City of Alexandria and it being diffi- cult to transfer pupils to other schools in the county, it is recom- mended that rooms be added to take -eare of grades up to and including the seventh grade and to provide for future growth. The Patrick Henry School is now an eight-room building, having an enrollment of 328 pupils. To pre- vent a possible congestion within the next few years, it is recommended that four rooms be added at a cos! of $20,000. The total additions proposed in the report provide for 68 class rooms. 42 for the Washington. Lee High School. 22 for the several elementary schools and four for a. yocational high school for colored children. The tetal cost is $355,000. The county now owes $674,000 in bonds, which is [to Be reduced by a payment-of %150,000 from Alexandria City by reason of annexation. There will remain A&A pended indebtedness of ‘$524,000 Aside from the bonded indebtedness, the county owes $225,000 in short term notes These short term loans might well be included with the coat of new construction, $355,000, and an additional bond issue be macie in the amount of $580.000 in a serial bond the report suggests. It is further pointed out is that with the completion of the new memorial | bridge more school facilities are most urgent. It is further shown that in 1920 the ayerage daily attendance in the public schools was 2.022. in 1929 it was 4,568 It ig stated that despite the fact that the county has lost a large portion of Jefferson District not thought that there will be any decrease, bu: that the increase will continue as it has in the past According meade last night by son, president of the Lyon Villave Citizens Association Dr. Frank USI Phillips. the United States De partment of Education who has made a studv of the Arlineton Coun- ity Public Schools, will be the pri: cipal speaker at t meeting of che aseocietion to be Wednesday nicht in the offices of |! & Fitch at & o'clock Dr. Phillins will discuss the advan- taees of adequate schools and wha they mean to a growing communi!) 1s it announcenient Rohert N Ander: to an of ne held yon There will be a special meeting of the Arlington County Bar Association tomorrow at 12:30 o'clock i> the Boulevard Bakery. at Clarendon. ac- cording to an announcement made yesterday DY Co!

COUNCIL ‘TOCONSIOER ZONING ' ‘Worst Curves on Richmond Town’s Water and Lighting | Are Other Problems to Be Talked. —— ORDINANCE IS STUDIED ee ee Three matters of unusual im- portance are expected to be laid be- fore the meeting of the mayor and town council of Rockville Tuesday night. The committee. which has been studying the question of enact- ing a zoning ordinance for the town, is expected to report. The council also is expected to take up the mat- ter of securing a hook-up with the Washington Suburban Sanitary Com- mission. to secure water for the town. A change in the !ighting system tis also expected tc be considered The zoning ordinance has Seen drawn up by Chief Engineer Irving C. Root, of the Maryland National Cap'- ta! Park and Planning Commission at A committee, consisting of Julian Whit- ing, Donald A. DeLashmutt and Por- ter G. Ward, has been studying the ordinance and probably will report at this meeting. Should the committee report favorably, a public hearing will be announced by Mayor J. Roger Spates, at which residente and tax- payers wi!) be given ar opportunity to -express themselves on the ques- tion The ordinance divides the into five zones—‘A’’ residence, “B”’ residence, ‘“C” residence, “D” com- mercial, and “E” industrial—andad regulates the height. bulk and con- struction of buildings in the town and the uses that can be made of them. A zoning map has been prepared by Mr. Root and is to be made a part of the ordinance. A board of appeals to be named by the mayor and council also is provided for. The penalty for violation of the measure is set forth as a fine not exceeding $8100: or. 30 days. in jail. Each day the violation is continued is to constitute a sepa- rate offense. Mayor Spates and Town Council- man Pau! Brunett and H. Worta- ington Talbott accompanied by rep- resentatives of the Potomac Electric Power Co. made an inspection tour of the town Tuesday with the pur- pose of modernizing the town's light- ing system. It is understood that the town plans the replacement of the pres- ent lights with stronger onés and the installation of additional lights. Definite plans and estimates for the work’ are expected to be submitted by the electric comipeny at the meet- ing. The question of securing an ade- quate water supply for the town has been a paramount subject for sev- eral years. Each summer tne water supply is found inadequate for the needs of the growing town and some method of increasing the supply has been sought Since it has been found that it will be possible to pur- chase water from: the sanitary com- mission at reasonable rates, this has been the most favored plan. The Rockville Chamber of Com- merce at its meeting last Tuexiey urged the town council to make such an arrangement and pointed out that this would result in the most ef- ficient answer to the water supply problem at the most reasonable cost. The council was urged to secure such town average of $3.96. Five dollars also was awarded to the Burke, Lorton and Falls Church Schools and the colored school at Gunston, which ranked in the order given The pupils in the schools in each district that won prizes for selling the largest number of seals in that dis- trict were: Falls Church District, He!- en Quinn. of Lincolnia; Centerville District.

GEORGE WAGHINGTON PRAISED AS MASON Bingham Calls Him Leading Member of Craft at Fete in Alexandria. ‘TURKISH ENVOY SPEAKS George: Washington was extolled as America’s greatest Mason by Senator Hiram Bingham, of Connecticut, in addressing Alexandria-Washingtén Lodge, No. 22, last night at Armory Hal! in Al- exandria, with more than 400 mem- bers of the order from various parts of the world in attendance. Senator Bingham shared honors as teh principal speaker, with Ahmed Bey, Turkish Ambassador, who in an address interpreted into English by an attache of the embassy, described Freemasonry as a bond of fellowship uniting the peoples of many lands. Senator Bingham paid high tribute to George Washington as the first master of the Alexandria lodge. He particularly traced teh growth of Masonry through the ages, and de- clared that his explorations had con- vinced him that even the Incas in ancient Peru were mémbers of the craft long before the Spanish con- quest, a fact he said had been re- vealed in ruins uncovered. The program, with Worshipful Mas- ter Charles F. Swetnam presiding, in- cluded a short talk by William Mosley Brown, of Washington and Lee Uni- versity, senior deacon of the Masonic grand lodge of Virginia, who recently was defeated in the race for governor; invocation by the Rev. Percy Foster Hall, the lodge’s chaplain and rec- tor of St. Paul’s Episcopal! Church, and C. Philip Heishley. A number of prominent Masons were introduced, including both George Akerson and Walter Newton. secretaries to President Hoover. Charlies Aubrey Callahan, tmmedi- ate past master of the lodge, was pre- sented with the past master’s jewel on behalf of the lodge by Alfred C. Moss, who as master of the lodge sev- eral years ago placed Mr. Callahan in line for his recently vacated post. In conformity with the annual cus- tom, telegrams were read from lodges throughout the Nation and in Eng- land. The dinner was served by 65 ladies, members of the families of member Masons, who themselves were dined by the lodge in ‘a preceding banquet at the George Mason Hotel.

' VIRGINIA FARM PAY BEHIND 1920 LEVEL World War Wages Reached Peak of $36.10 Monthly, Bulletin Shows. SALARIES ARE UNIFORM Blacksburg. Va., Feb. 22 (A.P.).— Farm wages in Virginia are today fairly uniform, but have never re- gained their high post-war level of $36.10 a month with board, reached in 1920, according to a bulletin of the Virginia Agricultural Experiment Station. The bulletin was prepared by Ar- thur G.. Peterson, assistant agricul- tural economist of the Virginia Agri- cultural Experiment Station and as- sociated agricultural economist in the Bureau of Agricultural Economics of the United States Department of Ag- riculture, and is to be published in March. It contains figures on farm wages from 1866 to the present day. In 1866 monthly wages with board were $9.29 and d to the low point of $7.79 near the end of the de- flation period in 1878. From then until 1915 farm wages slowly increased at about the same rate as farm prices. During the war farm wages followed the upward trend of farm prices and reached the peak of $36.10 a month with board, in 1920, when farm prices had already begun to drop. Farm wages fell abruptly in 1921 and 1922, but increased the next three years and have since remained fairly uniform, while farm prices have been decreasing. The afterwar deflation brought wages down to the low point of $24.80 a month in 1922, but wages have rallied and are now fairly uni- form, the study shows. The material gathered shows that farm wages usually lag behind price changes in both agricultural and non- agrioultural commodities, Farm la- borers often hire out by the year, and farm wages are in many cases deter- mined largely by custom, The in- dentured servant worked for a stipu- lated number of years to pay for his voyage to America in the early days of Virginia, and, prior to the Civil War, Slave labor was paid for on a lifetime basis at *he original purchase price. In outlying rural and mountain dis- tricts labor often had & customary price of 50 cents. » The report is a historical study of prices received by producers of farm products in Virginia from 1801 to 1927 made by the department of agricul- tural economics of the Virginia Agri- cultural Experiment Statidn in coop- eration with the United States De- partment of Agriculture as a Purnell fund project. The study. was made by Mr. Peterson under the direction of J. J. Vernon, of the agricultural ex- periment station, and O.C. Stine, of the Bureau of Agricultural Economics. The bulletin goes thoroughly into the subject of the general price situation of all farm commodities during the period. A list of 123 statistical tables is appended.

The collapse of the French cabinet. has plunged the London naval confer- 5 2>-f was not lesseried by the fact that at the -itor Harrison, himself, would be a fit ‘ence into a state of bewilderment and pessimism. No one knows now whether ~ the conference will be forced to begin all over again, with new proposals. that will force readjustments all along the line;‘or whether the new French delega- - tion will pick up the threads that were dropped by Premier Tardieu, which would be just as bad. . In either event the prospects of a worth-while naval. agreement. are small. The great objective of naval reduction has been scrapped, but nothing else will be scrapped.’ The conference is now ac- tually attempting to agree upon larger navies. The American delegation has been forced to retreat from one posi- tion after another, as. the real purposes of the other powers have been de- | veloped. Prime; Minister, MacDonald: is - unable or unwilling to make good his | the article promise that Great Britairf woul whole-heartedly for cruiser parity with | the United States. The best that Mr. MacDonald can do or will do is to .in- vite the United States to reach. parity by building up to the British figure; and he will make the British figure bigger unless France’s demands are modified. An effort is made in London to ex- tract comfort from the thought that the elements in the French Chamber that have placed Camille Chautemps in_ e premiership are in favor of naval sductions. It is also suggested that ‘Prime Minister MacDonald will make progress with this radical Socialist, be- cause of a similarity of views. But Mr. MacDonald is not his own master at the cotiference. He might be glad to scrap the British navy, in an agreement with French socialists, but he has the Brit- ish admiralty and the British dominions to reckon with. Besides, there is no in- dication whatever that the new French premier will modify the French naval demands. These demands are not merely M. Tardieu’s program; they are the program of the French parliament and people. If M. Chautemps hopes to retain the premiership his first step will be to avert the downfall that would fol- low his surrender of: French naval de- mands. His hold is feeble at best, but \by: taking a strong stand at London he may scrape up a majority for a while. /Su the conference is in the absurd position .of attempting to promote yworld disarmament by enlarging the world’s greatest navies. Its predica- ment is the result of a headlong experi- ment by the visionary socialist who happens tobe prime minister of Great Britain. He is making a discovery that ‘should be carefully noted by those American enthusiasts who believe in the magic of “conferences.” It is easier to call the nations into conference than it is to make them agree upon anything. Unless they have already reached an agreement before they are called in con- ference, their conference. brings out disagreements and bitterness. The ob- - servation of Gen. Dawes will become im- mortal: “The one unforgivable sin is lack of preparation.” __ _ PAT HARRISON HAS FUN. Senator Joe Grundy ‘may have been in “high dudgeon” when—he circulated President Hoover as siding with the coalition in the tariff fight, but Senator Pat Harrison was far “from in a “dudgeon” when he chided thie.-domestic market=-to-his-full ability to supply it, and advised that industries the majority side of the chamber over the incident. The gentleman from Mississippi was playing a game to his liking. An incident had arisen that gave him opportunity to unsling his verbal. armament, and he waded into battle right lustily. He thyust the blade of satire deep into the body of the and a turn as he withdrew. He thrashed away with the ,broadsword of ridicule, ' slapping down adversaries Smoot and Bingham, who had the temerity to rise before'the onslaught. Pat Harrison was enjoying himself, and his enjoyment close of the incident the Old Guard sat mute, vanquished and prostrate. What the Republican party needs in the Senate-is a Pat Harrison of its own. The logic with which the gentleman from Mississippi struck down his ad- versaries was not unanswerable. There was no reason why he should have had’ the floor all to himself. The Demo- cratic party in the Senate is not invul- nerable, depending for its strength, as it does, upon an unnatural marriage with Republican malcontents, and Sena- target for the barbed shafts of a clever | verbal marksman. But the Republican’ army has no rapier corps. It depends upon the ponderous movement of heavy artillery. It has no sappers, miners or arque- busiers. It is forced to take punish- ment that it does not deserve, and to take it sitting down. Where are the sharpshooters who can pick off the deadly marksman from Mississippi? THE TARIFF RECKONING. Representations that President Hoo- ver ‘stands with the Democratic-insur- gent coalition in the tariff fight are in- credible. The country is asked to believe that the President has said nothing about his tariff views to the Republican leaders in Congress, but has taken oc- casion to express them through a West- ern newspaper. President Hoover informed Congress when the extra session began as to his views.on the tariff. .He asked that the agricultural, schedules be increased so that the American farmer would have threatened by ruinous foreign competi- tion be given greater protection. The President took a firm stand against the export debenture plan, and asked that the flexible provision in the present bill be retained. He has never spoken in terms of rates and commodities, and the public does not ask him to do so. There is nothing in the President’s public utterances that could be possibly construed as a desire to see existing in- dustrial tariff rates reduced. But that is the program on which the coalition has béen working. The insurgents have not been content with defeating recom- mendations of the finance committee for higher rates. They have cut into a number of existing rates in such a way as to alarm industry and postpone a re- turn of business confidence. The only two issues on which the President has voiced an opinion are those nostrums advanced by the coali- tion to subsidize one class of producers and destroy the flexible tariff provision. In both cases his views clashed squarely with those of the coalition. To suggest now that the President is standing with this combination to the injury of East- ern industry is to absurd to need an- swering. The incident is bringing demands from some quarters that the President come out and express his views. This is another scheme to discredit the ad- ministration. Should the President speak he could do nothing but stir up further opposition in the Senate and de- lay the passage of the tariff bill. It is the President’s privilege to express his general views on legislation, but when it comes to fixing specific duties in the tariff bill, that can be attended to only. by Congress. _ President Hoover stands with his party for tariff protection. It is not to be supposed that all the rates in any bill would meet with his personal ap- proval. The bill must be a compromise, as -a)) tariff legislation has been. But Mr. Hoover has already made public his determined opposition to the two out- standing proposals of the coalition. Senator Harrison counts his chickens before they are hatched when he glee- fully announces that Mr. Hoover is on the side of the coalition. Let the coali- tion persist in jamming the debenture scheme through, and then we shall see what Senater Harrison’s hopes are worth. . The coalition is playing with dyna- and industry under the pretense of help- ing the-farmer. If the coalition con- tinues in the direction it has gone thus far, and rejects all reasonable compro- mises in conference, it will be the duty of the Republican House and the Repub- lican President to keep faith with labor and industry by killing the tariff Dill. The wreck will carry more thaw one coalitionist down to defeat, but funfor- tunately it will also work damage to agriculture by denying to it the increas- ed protection to which it is entitled. The President would come unharmed through such a disaster, becausé the people know that he is trying to obtain an honest tariff, protecting labor in the mills as well as farmers in the West. The American people will hold thé coalition to account if tariff protection fails. THE VOICE OF WASHINGTON. Speaking at Clarksburg yesterday to an assembly of Sons of the Revolution, and taking for his subject “The Voice of Washington,” Senator Goff, of West Virginia, touched upon the propensity of Americans to regard a republican form of government as a natural condi- tion. “That such a government is mortal and can die,” he observed, “is a thought so entirely foreign to our conception of a republic that it is folly in the minds of some to discuss it. A glance at history does not lend en- couragement to this cheerful view. Venice had a republican form of gov- ernment for 1,100 years; Carthage for 700 years; Florence, 300 vears, and Rome, 500 years. . We have lasted now 149 years, and if we should continue 300 years more we would go down in history as one of the most splendid and shortest-lived of nations.” Senator Goff reminded his audience that Washington was solemnly aware of the mortality of the republic, and never more so than when, at the crisis in the constitutional convention, he arose and said: It is,too probable that no plan we propose will be adopted; per- haps another dreadful conflict is to be sustained. If to please the people we offer what we ourselves disapprove, how can we afterward defend our work? Let us raise a standard to which the wise and the honest can repair. The event — is in the hands of God. The makers of the Constitution raised such a standard; and now it is the subject of attack by demagogues and lawbreakers. From within and without, the work of Washington is under assault. Demagogues pretend that they can improve upon Washing- ton’s standard, and they offer poisonous nostrums to please the people. Citizens who believe they are patriots do not hesitate to break the law. “If a man is a patriot,” asked Senator Goff, “how can he deliberately violate the law of his country ?” What. would Washington think if he were permitted to survey the country? Would he regard the Republic as a natural condition, as immortal as nature, and proof against the folly and wickedness of the people themselves? Every act performed and every word uttered by Washington reveal his anxious solicitude, his apprehension that the people themselves might destroy their own liberty by folly or neglect. His last formal utterance was a warning to his countrymen to beware of foreign wiles and to cherish their Government. He told them that the Nation could be destroyed only by themselves. “In framing the Constitution,” said Senator Goff, “the fathers were solici- tous to make an end of autocracy in every form, and they meant the au- tocracy of the mob no less than that of the crown.” But now “the world is afflicted with unrest and misinforma- tion, a poisoning of the public mind against the very safeguards of free institutions. Mankind is thinking too much of its rights and too little of its duties. * * * The dangerous element in our land today is the man who in- dulges in perverse discourses and teaches the people to want what they can not have. * * * Unprincipled poli- ticians have made our people believe that they are constantly being cheated, deceived and tricked, until confidence is destroyed.” The United States is the most powerful Nation in the world, and ob- servance of its Constitution will insure to its people freedom and security for all time. It can be the happiest of nations, with the most.abundant bless- ings and the amplest opportunities. If it is unhappy, the people have only themselves to blame—they have not been injured or ravaged by outsiders. |mite when it strikes at American labor If the Republic perishes it will be at \ wa} ) a | ee Fy ‘ , . * ° id. f, ‘A ‘ ° © Pinan 4 - 4 A= "= oe . j - A bi / / 4/ est MZ ; CLE The Would-Be Samson. the hands of -its.own people, blindly or deliberately deserting the standard of Washington. That standard is the Constitution, which demagogues would “improve” and which foolish and wicked citizens would violate. A return to observance of the Constitution will turn the country away from danger and per- petuate the Republic. General, habit- ual and increasing disregard of the Constitution will first demoralize and then destroy the Republic. The Nation raised up by Washington depends for its survival upon popular adherence to the Constitution that holds it together. A BIG OIL MERGERP In 1911, the Government, through the so-called Standard Oil dissolution suit, compelled the Standard Oil Co. of New Jersey to split into 33 parts the in- dustrial empire it had built. The Gov- ernment held that Standard of New Jersey had violated the antitrust laws by purposing to establish and maintain dominancy over the oil industry, not by normal methods of development, but by excluding others from the trade. Now a new movement toward consolidation is under way. It is announced that a merger between the Standard Oil Co. of New York and the Vacuum Oil Co., two former units of the old Standard of New Jersey, has been agreed upon. The merger is not to be finally consum- mated until the legality of the plan has been tested in the courts. The merged company would have a capitalization of close to $1,000,000,000, and would mar- ket more than 9 per cent of the petro- leum products consumed in the United States. The companies contend that the pro- posed combination is entirely within the law. The businesses of the two com- panies, it is asserted, are complemen- tary rather than competitive. Standard of New York is primarily interested in crude production, refining and market- ing of gasoline and. kerosene; the busi- ness of the Vacuum Go. in the United States is primarily in the manufactur- ing and marketing of high grade lubri- cating specialties, for which it has de- veloped a world-wide reputation and market. The bulk of the business of the New York company is in the United States, while that of the Vacuum com- pany is abroad. While Vacuum and Standard of New York may not at the present time com- pete to any considerable extent in the manufacture or marketing of gasoline or keresene; they -are~ nevertheless po- tential competitors and, as such, serve to check and balance any tendency on the part of one or the other to attempt to dominate the trade. They do com- pete in the manufacture and marketing of lubricants. When monopolization of the oil industry is considered, it is gen- erally in canrection with gasoline. But lubricants.are as important as gasoline, a point that unquestionably will, be given full consideration by the court called upon to rule as to the legality of the proposed merger. The Government has been informed of the details of the plan and is expected to ask the courts for an injunction re- straining the companies from carrying out the merger. When this action is inaugurated, there will be two impor- tant antimonopoly cases in the courts. A week or so ago the Government filed a petition in equity charging nineteen oil companies operating on the Pacific Coast with a conspiracy to monopolize and restrain interstate trade and com- merce by maintaining fixed prices for the sale of gasoline. The two cases promise to be argued along similar lines. A question exists as to whether or not the terms of the dissolution decree forbid companies formerly subsidiary to Standard of New Jersey from merg- ing; but even if there be no such pro- vision, the question remains as _ to whether or not the proposed merger, and the precedent it would establish, would not tend to put the oil industry back on the basis that obtained prior to 1911, when price fixing and other monopolistic and trade-restraining prac- tices were universally practiced. MR. HOOVER’S SCHOOL. No event in recent years has so centered attention on illiteracy as the visit of Ray Buracher, young moun- taineer of the Blue Ridge, to President Hoover’s summer camp on the Rapidan. As a result of that visit a neat little schoolhouse has been built on a moun- tain side in the wilderness. This week it will open its doors to children of the mountain folk who are neighbors to the President’s summer retreat. Madison County, Virginia, where the new school is located, has a regular educational system of both elementary and high schools. Nevertheless, the last census shows that there are 969 illiterates in that county. The school system does not reach the mountain folk who live in isolated communities. ) A few of these*people will finda new™ world of learning opened to them in the school built by the President. But thousands of others will go on living quite apart from the modern world unless steps are taken to end their isolation. The elimination of illiteracy is not always a matter of building school- houses. Construction of roads into remote communities is often more ef- fective. In other cases it is necessary to eliminate poverty before there is any chance of giving children an education. Few families fail to take advantage of educational opportunities if they are offered. The fight against illiteracy would be virtually won if every county were made accessible by good roads. Many interesting facts bearing on defects in the rural school systems were brought out in a survey by the Ameri- can Federation of Teachers. Seventeen States, they found, exempt children. from attendance at school because of poverty. Tennessee makes inability to supply suitable clothing an excuse for not attending school, and Connecticut does not compel attendance of those unable to buy books. In this way illiteracy may be perpetuated from generation to generation. : The problem of eliminating illiteracy among the extremely poor is especially difficult. When a child is the only support of a widowed mother education. becomes secondary to the immediate necessity of sustenance. In the larger cities the situation can often be met by night schools, but in smaller communi- ties children in such circumstances are often deprived of even the rudiments of education. In this case illiteracy must be attacked through alleviation of pov- erty. Too often handicapped children are put to a still greater disadvantage by allowing them to go through life with- out schooling. In this case special schools is the remedy. There is no panacea that will eliminate the many causes of illiteracy. The mountain folk of the Appalachians may need only schools and teachers, but elimination of illiteracy in other sections is more com- plicated. The Hoover school has cen- tered the attention of the Nation on one phase of the question. It remains for some one to strike an effective blow at other causes which are keeping Am can children in ignorance.

There was a real birth- day cake with one pink candle on top, tea and things, all very de- lightful. But to return to the subject of clothes, unless you were there your- self you can not imagine how love- ly the new colors are. So different and spring-like, pinks and orchids and purples, blues and rose and grays and browns. One black suit had a blouse of white with appliques of baby blue. This in silk pique. All the skirts are tuck-in, needless to say. One light mixed tweed, had the cutest little semi-fitted coat and flared skirt.

Last night they were guests at dinner of the Secretary of the Interior and Mrs. Wilbur, the party having been put off from Tuesday, the day set aside for Cabinet dinners, as, although the presi- dential party got back to town on Monday, their Original intention had been to stay a few days longer. And next Tuesday they will be guests at dinner of the Secretary of Agricul- ture and Mrs. Hyde. Moreover, the Presi- dent has an enlivening engagement on his calendar in the dinner to be given in his honor by the White House Correspondents Association, the date being March 8 and the place the ballroom of the Willard. One of those breakfast conferences, of which President Hoover is fond, wag an early event following his return, guests being con- gressional leaders and the purpose, presum- ably, to help speed up the legislation in which the President is most interested. Mrs. Hoo- ver attended two concerts in the week just past, the Philadelphia Orchestra concert on Tuesday and Rosa Ponselle’s recital next day. At the first she had Mrs. Charles Evans Hughes, wife of the newly appointed Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, as a guest in her box and next afternoon she entertained Mrs. William Howard Taft, wife of the re- tiring Chief Justice. Moreover, the First Lady attended the luncheon of the ladies of the Senate on Tues- day and on Friday she was the’ guest at luncheon of Mrs. Edward Everett Gann. This was one of the series, with wives of members of the Cabinet—and the Vice Presi- dent’s sister—as hostesses, and before the season is over Mrs. Hoover will have lunched with each of the group. Guests each time are limited to wives of members of the Presi- dent’s official family. + - - - HIS week—-on Tuesday—will come the $i Congressional Cltub’s breakfast at the Pan-American Union in honor of Mrs. Hoo- ver, Although the party was postponed from February 14, there will be no change in the program, the headliner, Rudy Vallee, dear to radio fans, having been able to rearrange his engagements so as to be present. He was captured in the first place through the good offices of Mrs. Porter H. Dale, presi- dent of the club, the Dales, of Vermont, and the Vallees, of Maine, being longtime friends. Mrs. Dale will be the Graham. McNamee for this auspicious occasion, stepping from the role of hostess into.the role of radio an- nouncer before Rudy Vallee goes on the air. Radio listeners will become “Congressional Club conscious’’ before this week is over, for not only:iwill Mrs. Dale’s address of welcome at the breakfast be broadcast, for there is to be a broadcast from the formal luncheon at the club on Thursday, when many of the members will entertain groups of guests, and when the program willbe presented by Miss Julia Mahoney, soprano; Mr, Kenneth Cong- don, barytone, and Miss Mathilde Harding, pianist. How the club members are to live through this week remains to be seer. Beside the important festivities already mentioned, there’s a dance at the club on Tuesday even- ing and on Friday evening there will be a re- reception with the Speaker and Mrs. Long- as guests of honor, ea +2 . W's the. diplomatic reception at the White House ‘‘adjourned sine die’’ because of the period of official mourning observed earlier in the season, the diplomatic dinner on Thursday evening was the first hospitality extemded by President and Mrs. Hoover to the foreign corps—if one excepts the New Year reception which the diplemats attended en masse in embassy and legation groups. And this was, in truth, hospitality to the entire corps, for, although the dinner , guests were limited to chiefs of missions and their wives, as is customary, the embassy aud legation staffs down to the least secretary and attache, with the ladies of their families. were invited to the mueleale which followed. This was a departure from precedent, as the guest list for these after-dinner musicales is usually small and invitations, in the case of the diplomatic dinner, are customarily only extended to the counselors—or in case their is no counselor, the first secretaries— of the various missions and their wives, with State Department officials and members of Senate and House foreign affairs committees. One might deduce from this that there will be no diplomatic reception this year, but the general belief seems to be that this colorful fete will be held after Easter, with such of the other state receptions as have been post- poned. Announcement of the new dates chosen has been expected from day to day, but Mr. Warren Delano Robbins, ceremonials officer at the White House, has been out of town, saying bon voyage ta Mrs. Robbins, who sailed yesterday for a brief trip to Europe, a holiday—Washington’s Birthday—came in and the new schedule has not yet been given out. However, hostesses, who have been hesi- tant about making engagements for Thurs- days, ‘‘White House day,’’ may safely pro- ceed on the assumption that, after next Thursday, when the reception to members of Congress will be held, they may have a clear field until after Easter. Although three re- ceptions were originally planned for Lent, it has been decided to put them off until the close of the penitential season. Just why this change has been made nobody seems to know. The President and Mrs, Hoover, as Quakers, do not observe the 40 days of prayer and fasting decreed by some of the churches and, indeed, strict Lenten observ- ance seems to be a thing of the past. But heretofore—for many years at least—it has not been the custom te hold state functions at the White House in Lent and there may have been objections expressed by some re- ligious groups. At all events there will be a lull, so far as the White House is concerned, until spring, with an unwontedly brilliant “little season” in prospect. SS em HINGTON POST: SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1930.

Blouse Will Be Keystone In Apparel Perfect Ensemble Suit to Be Built Around It This Spring. By VYLLA POE WILSON. HOSE who hold the golden keys to the secret of the fashions just around the corner say “thumbs down” on the two-piece dress for any thing but sport wear. On the other hand the7 designate the blouse as the keystone about which the per- fect ensemble suit is built. Almost defiantly the women of the world have refused to place all of their faith for smartness in the one-piece dress and coat. They have irfsisted and succeeded in enforcing the rule that the skirt and coat en- semble with a dashing blouse to har- monize with the whole effect be given ite proper place in the ranks. of fashion. In the first place, the new tucked in effects give a more becoming line to those who want to follow the Style for the higher waist line. Since the establishment of the normal or nearly as high as normal waistline the skirt and blouse may be joined together by a belt or girdle of the width most becoming to the wearer. While the first of the tuck in blouses to be worn with suits were closely “pulled down” the blouse Which really blouses all-the way around is one of the latest details of the fash- ion world. The blouse and shirtwaist boxes of the summer and spring girl of 1930 will be full to running over with lat- est productions of the tailor, the dressmaker and shirtmaker'’s art in every color and hue and fabric im- aginadle. For individuality and vari- ety of design and color is one of the high points of the spring waists whether they are to be worn with a lain tailored suit or @ skirt and coat, Ong or three-quarter ensemble suit. Blouse Under Study. Heretofore we have been quite con- tented to obtain a waist design which suited us pretty well and have this type of garment cut from the same general pattern. This season, how- ever, those who delve deep into the mysteries of the mode have lavished much thought and imagination on the creation of the blouse for morn- ing, for afternoon, for informal and for formal wear. Only the ones to be worn with the strictly tailored suits have anything of the shirtwaist stigma. Even these latter have a way of their own whicn sets each individual one apart from others of the same general tyne. Most of the blouses have a forma)- ity all their own which seems to con- form with the more formal cut of the skirt and coat generally. In the array of spring blouses to be glimpsed beneath the winter suits or worn with the first spring ensem- bles one is struck by the number of yellow and blue ones chosen to match the jaunty little woven basket weave ribbon hats: with soft brims. White there is no general rule as to the cut, yet, somehow, the fancy of the wearers Or the designers seems to run to some version of the diagonal tuck- ed down the front effect. Most of them close with a moderately low vee” held in place by a handsome Pin or a costume brooch. The popularity of the bib collar on sc many of the new dresses has also Invaded the blouse world. Some of these bibs button high .on one shoulder and they are cut round or Pointed or in scallops or finished in as many different ways as are those in the wardrobe of a chubby-faced baby whose mother gives anxious thought to her clothes. Some of the Bib-like effects are further enhanced Py wna Streamers tied at one oulder and hangin oO fashion in front. er ee A closely molded -to-the-figure blouse, to be worn with one of the new faille silk ensembles, is made of flowered silk, a large light figure on a dark ground, and has a bertha col- lar with a round neckline piped with the material of the suit.

Mrs. Hoover in Velvet. Mrs. Hoover, who was an attractive figure in a favorite black and white transparent velvet, over which she wore a black velvet coat richig trimmed in fur, had with her as spe- celal guest Mrs. Charles Evans Hughes, wife of the newly appointed Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court. Mrs. Hnghes, who thus made her reappearance in Washington so- ciety under the most favorable cir- cumstances, also was in a black vel- vet. ensemble, a note of color being provided by a smart red velvet hat made in the prevailing mode. , Mrs. Edward Everett Gann, sister of the Vice President, was another much-noticed person in the audience, and she also was in black velvet re- lieved with a touch of white silk in the bodice’ which relieved it of ony severity and added to its chic- ess. At all the eyents last week groups of admirers surrounded Laty Isabella Howard, the retiring doyenne of the Diplomatic Corps, busy at her task of saying farewell to her many friends in this Capital. The Howards have been among the most popular of di- plomats accredited to this post in recent years, and the regret at their departure is most sincere. At one of the. afternoon affairs Lady Isabella was a statuesque figure in a beau- tiful black crepe de chine dress, made on modish lines, with which she wore an attractive black velvet hat. She was noticed in animated conversa- tion at one of the teas with Mlle. Reine Claudel, daughters of the Am- bassador of France and Mme. Clau- del, who was a picture of winsome youth in a gray-green crepe dress, with which she wore a cocoa brown hat and a brown fur coat. Mrs. Lowell Fletcher Hobart, presi- dent general of the D. A.

Mrs. Harry C. Barnes, chairman of roll call and information for the District Chapter of the American Red Cross, was in a smart tweed walk- ing suit of autumn rust hue the other day. The coat and skirt were cut on. chic lines and her hat was also on the same general scheme of coloring. Miss Mabel Boardman wore at one of the concerts of last week a gown — Dare’s Weekly The New Emphasis on Blouses FYE Fashion Letter ri Paris, Feb. 22. HE “gare” at Zurich, Switzerland, pecomes a forest, a living brown wooded forest of skis, upright and sleek and strong. And the forest is peopled with eager, rosy-cheeked young things, some girls, some boys, all, regardless of sex, garbed in warm flannel trouser things, bright scarfs and jaunty hats. Special trains take them high up into mountains where snow has fallen deep and crisp, blan- keting everything in its soft down. AVinter sports are on—and St. Mor- itz is glowing with the radiant life that the snow gives to its lovers. It is a glorious place, which draws unto itself the outdoor revelers who know how good it is to be ALIVE. St. Moritz or any other popular winter sports resort—are you, too, this very minute puckering your brow and squinting over the fashion magazines and peering into the windows of sperts shops for that ultra, that “last word” in winter sports togs? Won- dering whether your sweater should be gay yellow with modernistic “light- ning flashes” of black, perhaps. Or steel blue-gray shot with reds. Or even saying to yourself, “Oh, dear; oh, dear, I just CAN’T afford one of those ducky little Jleopard-fur coat-jac- quettes and bonnet to match—how can I go over the holidays and hope to keep up with the Mrs. Joneses in gala attire?” Very Simple, After All. If so. you are worrying your pretty head all for nothing! The “ultra,” the “last word,” in snow togs is— darned if it isn't—a rather heavy flannel suit, very plain and tailored, almost invariably navy blue, with a jacquette. which can’t be fooled by a gust of wind on a mountain top, held as it is snugly to the neck with a slide fastener, and large patch pock- ets with wide overhanging flaps so that nary a little *kerchief nor a large one can escape! Long, rather loose trousers—not so very loose, at that— which disappear just below the calf curve into skiing shoes with a moc- casin toe. That is Mrs. Jones’ cos- tume—and Mrs. Smith’s—and Mrs. Vander - Umpty- Umpt’s, and Mme Elegante’s. No, they don’t look like a girl's -schoo] out on a picnic! Nor a boys’ school, either. Because each wearer can “express” herself in the color note of the scarf, cap and gloves. And what splashes of color they are! With a navy blue costume, nothing is more chic than a bright red beret, bright and Hesery Street red searf and navy blue knitted gloves with bright cuff. Or yellows and oranges, with a dark brown costume. Your Accessories. Hat—Berets are by far the most popular hats. The old, knitted cap effects are out. There is one beret variation that I do want to tell you about because it’s so perfectly adorable. It’s a monk's hood, with pointed peak, and it softly frames the face and shields it, too, from the rough touch of winter wind; it ties under the chin. Only Miladi’s nose has to bear the brunt of the cold in this fetching hood. Scarf—The scarf carries out the color note established by the beret and is an essential accessory. Some- times the cap and scarf are knitted in one piece and make the protective hood-type of covering. Colorful, to be sure, and tightly fitting. Mittens—Or gloves, either are mod- ish, and are knitted usually in a color matching the costume, with wide cuffs, which match the beret or scarf. And the smartest ones are long. Shoes—The heavy brown leather shoe with a moccasin: toe, called a “sports boot,” is invariably worn with this costume, lacing rather high over the trouser leg. And they are suit- able not only for skiing but for all the sports indulged in, with the ex- ception of sKating, for which you should have a standard skating boot with the skates attached. Sweaters and belts—-At your own discretion but always selected to be a part of the ensemble in color note. Summing It Up. So, you see, wherever you are, and wherever you intend going for winter sports’ this month, you have no fur- ther worries about the selection of your costume. Dame Fashion hath definitely decreed practical, plain chic—angd in this case no one can safely say her nay. Au Revoir!

The bride, who was given away by | Hintlian, | her uncle, Mr. Neschan G had chosen a gown of ivory satin with long train, the hat and accessories matching in tint; she wore a long tulle veil and carried a shower bou- quet of St. Joseph's lilies and bride roses.

For the forenoon or early afternoon wedding, a silk ensemble of dress and three-quarter-length coat, printed or plain, might well be considered; for late afternoon, lace or chiffon, or both combined, are worthy of note. And for the formal evening wed@ing, at 6, or later, a long, flowing, formal gown of lace, of chiffon, of one of the new nets, or of crépe Elizabeth would be especially attractive. For such an hour, too, mother may indulge in a little train of her own, decidedly a new note in wedding outfits for the mother of the bride and the mother of the groom. For the woman who selects a pastel, color for her dress, hat, shoes and gloves in a deeper shade of the same color will be con- sidered very smart. N tsi Blues With the return of navy blue to fashion importance, there has commenced an avalanche of ac- companying blue shades which will color the entire spring mode. It is, after all, a logical result that the prominence of one particular bife should awaken interest in all the variations of that color. For afternoon Wear, new blues which hover between dark and light tonés, leaning toward the lighter ones, are being advanced. Much is being made of a gray blue known variously as “pewter” blue, “cadet” blue and by other titles. Blues with a mauve cast, such as hyacinth blue, and . periwinkle blue, are important both for afternoon and for evening wear. Sea blues, lighter than navy, are conspicuous for daytime wear. In the evening, more delicate and pastel tones will be conspic- uous. In satin, in various crepes, taffeta, sheer fabrics, such as lace, net, tulle, and marquisette, pale blue rises to new importance in the wake of the vogue for darker blues. Accessories keep pace with clothes. The fine fabric-like straws advanced for spring wear are as effective in lighter tones for after- noon wear, as in the darker blues for street. Lapis and chalcedony and other blue jewels are demand- ing attention. And in navy blue, shoes and handbags of navy blue calf harmonize happily with the navy blue street costume. ~ 7 lass Ss : =o Se “™* ~S{OON™ i ol A gown of peach crepe de SSNS AOS, SS Se a ee ae chine trimmed with Alen- con lace.

HOSE who say romance is dead in this age of the mechanical might take note of the number of recent romantic matches of nota- bles—beginning with Col. Lindbergh and Anne Morrow and ending with Princess Marie Jose of Belgium and Crown Prince Humbert of Italy. Every woman looks to the time ' when she will be a bride as the great moment of her life, when she may flaunt her charm and loveliness for all the world to see. This is as it Should be, in an age and a.world where every woman, no matter what her station in life, is entitled to a place in the spotlight. The charm that a woman brings to her bridal day will give her treas- ured memories through the years..to come; the foundation which she builds in preparing for her wedding will often determine her future hap- piness. This no doubt is why the | bride has been a tradition for genera- _tions and why she continues to be a | figure of romance and glamour in an | age of emancipated women. | Traditions change and women no | longer prepare their trousseaux gears before the wedding day; no longer ‘are household linens hemmed by hand ' and laid in the hope chest in fragrant ‘lavender to await the day of be- | trothal. | Today the trousseau of th® bride is merely a matter of going to one’s 'favorite dressmaker and giving her the necessary instructions, or to one’s favorite shop and making the neces- | sary purchases. A Royal Trousseau. | Garments of silk and lace, which /in another age would have been worn ‘only by a princess, may now be had by every Woman. The garments se- lected for the trousseau of the Prin- cess Marie Jose are such as might be worn by any other bride « today— lingerie of shimmering peach-toned crepe de chine, hand drawn and pleat- ed and edged with dusky Alencon lace; a wedding gown of ivory satin and lace; a simple tailored suit for travel; a graceful tea gown of deep ashes of roses velvet. Despite the fact that fashion today is within the reach of all, and that a bride need not be a princess to look like. a princess, even the loveliest of prides must exercise discrimination. good judgment and good taste, not 9 — for her trousseau, but in the ar- rangements and plans for the wed- ding. An American Bride. Whether it is an elaborate wed- ding with a retinue of bridesmaids, rivaling royalty in pomp and splen- dor, or the simple ceremony in Cali- fornia of Miss Helen Wills and Mr. Frederick Moody, it requires a great deal of thought and preparation for it must be perfect to the last-minute detail. We can not all emutate royalty in the extravagance of our nuptials, but all bride&-to-be would do well to take note of the simplicity and good taste of Miss Wills, who has learned to per- fection the art of being charming. One can be as charming a bride in a tallored suit as in an ivory velvet gown and priceless heirloom. lace. More often, as a matter of fact, the small] simple wedding is in better taste, for, though pageant weddings are the tradition for royalty (and rHollywood), for the rest of us they might bespeak mere display and lack of judgment. The wedding may be as simple or as elaborate as the cir- cumstances seem to warrant, but in any case the bride must be charm- ing. It is far more important that she should begin her new estate with a very complete and practical ward- robe, ranging from the important gowns down to the incidental acces- sories, than that she appear on her bridal day in an ornate gown with sixteen bridesmaids as elaborately at- tired as herself, only to find that she has neglected to attend to the details of her trousseau which must be re- plenished later. (Copyright. 1930.) Will Honor Unknowns. Who Fought Brigands Diarbekir, Turkey, Feb. 22 (A.P.).— Turkey is to have something new in the Way of “unknown soldier” monu- ments. By order of the minister of the interior, a monument is to be erected to commemorate the heroes of the republic’s militia who lost their lives in fights with brigands.

UST as her grandmothers and | great-grandmothers of 50 and 100 years ago. did, the modern bride favors the traditional gown trimmed with real lace that has been handed down by family brides of past generations. ‘ For lace contributes that note of grace and dignity that befits the oc- casion; it concedes to the demands of tradition, and last, but not least, there is nothing so flattering to the bride herself as the relief which lace affords to the severity of an all-white costume. If she is so fortunate gg to have really old pieces, she will have the added advantage of the contrast be- tween the soft tint of the lace and the white of the satin. Or if she has modern pieces of such laces as rose | ..arf that is large enough to be used point or point de venise. she may call upon the skill of a dyer to re- produce that lovely yellowed tone.

And all yhrough the spring and summer she will con- gratulate herself upon her choice, for for traveling, luncheon or bridge. A suit of light rep-like cloth is in vogue for dressmaker tailoring. The jacket fits the waist, with a series of bands that have rounded ends.to give an effect of scailoping. The skirt carries out this same banded treat- ment as it is entirely made of narrow strips that widen toward the bottom. These give a lovely rippling fullness which by the law of opposites empha- sizes the trim fit of the smartly cut jacket.

Sketched elsewhere upon this | page is a group of small items which | will doubtless lend their individual _ charms to a whole succession of wed- | dings. | Muffs and Fans. : In place of the traditional bouquet | of flowers for the bride's attendants. | Paris has suggested muffs, such as the ‘one in the illustration, and fans. The ' muff pictured is sponsored by Worth, ‘and the original was made of velvet, ‘finely shirred, and allowed to fall | down in a soft cascade at either side. | Made of chiffon, of tulle, or even of satin, it would be equally effective. ' For a formal early spring wedding, chiffon bridesmaids’ dresses might be smartly accompanied by small hets of shirred velvet, muffs of velvet like ‘the one pictured, and slippers to match. At the winter openings in Paris, Augustabernard presented a spring wedding party, and had the brides- maids carry chiffon fans with a petal- ' like fringe which fell softly over thelr arms. Gloves Conspicuous, Gloves will be very evident in the spring wedding. Long gloves are again an essential part of the cos- tumes for attendants, very frequently lending a color note which is repeated ‘in hats and shoes. The bride herself _will wear long gloves if her dress is | sleeveless, and may wear six or eight ' button pull-on gloves which crush at | the wrist if her dress is long sleeved. This, however, is not obligatory, as |many of the long sleeved wedding | gowns have decorative points over the | back of the hands, which gloves | would hide. For bridesmaids, long gloves in &@ | Biarritz style, which has no opening | at the wrist, are new and smart. A Gift From the Bride. For a wedding gift to her attend- 'ants a bride could make no happier | choice than an evening bag, in colors 'to match their costumes, and thus ‘supply each bridesmaid with an ac- | cessory which will effectively come | plete her ensemble for other occasions than the wedding itself. Nor is there any gainsaying the fact ‘that an exquisite chiffon handker- chief edged with real Alencon lace is an asset to any wardrobe. a bridesmaid’s frock as it solves the long sleeves versus no sleeves problem, Lacy Bridal Lingerie. Modern bridal lingerie, such as is |shown at the left, departs from the traditional white and takes to the new complex pinky peach tones with | very deep ecru Alencon lace for deco- ‘ration. Crepe de chine, or a supple |crepe satin are two favored lingerie |materials. And of course the new rincess lines will be carried out ip slips, nightgowns and combinations. The corselette with the fitted waist and soft top is the correct founda- ‘tion for the lines of the weddin 'gown and, like the lingerie, it is o | peach-toned satin trimmed with dark ' Alencon lace. ted eee tne NEW Se “ 2. &. @ . 0,0 4,9 «9 ‘e * * «,° + '” ae “Se Se 2 ! *. = *,° > > ote . oe Je fe Se °° *° ~° the jaunty flare of the the novel-shaped, stitch ets, cuffs and collars. ~ >. * eS > * "* “ 2. * +269, e > sleete > 2 + © & © > 'o* °° ¢,° o° °° + Sizes 14 to 42 erts, silver spray, chosen for the dressy coats. capelets, belts that line are silhouette coats. mark the features of Emphasis on the waistlin belt and lines—semiform Ped.

On the basis of the plan now under consideration, thre of the older battle- ships would be withdrawn from the fleet. Each of them carries a comple- ment of approximately 32 wardroom officers, 37 junior officers and 12 war- rant officers. There are also aproxi- mately 46 chief petty officers and 1,04 enlisted men. Thus a total. of about 243 commissioned officers and 3,270 enlisted men will be saved. ' In addition, a number of the older _cruisers will be withdrawn as the new crnisers come into commission. Under the 327,000 tons of cruisers for the ‘United States under the tentative pro- posal thére will be eighteen of the 10,000-ton ships and 21 of the 6-inch gun type. Built and building, the United. States now has ten of the larger type. eight of which are still to go into commission. Eight to Be Supplied. Allowing for the eight under con- struction being manned by personnel taken from the old cruisers laid up, there will be eight of this type to be supplied with personnel. 3 Taking the Salt Lake City for ex- ample, each of these new ships will require 32 officers, 12 warrant officers, 30 chief petty officers and 538 men, & total of 325 officers and 4,544 enlisted men for the eight 10,000-ton ships to be built. For the smaller type the plan con- templates the United States having 21, which means that 11 new ones must be built. If the 7.050-ton Omaha is taken as cn example, using her pres- ent complement, which is below war strength, each of these 11 will re- quire 30 officers and 12 warrant of- ficers, with 29 chief petty officers and 441 enlisted men. This will mean a total of 462 officers and 5,170 men for the new ships. “Total Is Arrived At, Thus the increased cruiser tonnage will require an additional 814 offi cers and 9,174 enlisted men which will be reduced by 243 officers and 3,270 men now assigned to the 3 older bat- tleships which the proposed settle- ment would decommission. This leaves an additional 571 officers and 6,444 in round numbers. Even this does not take into con- sideration the fact that present com- plements of the ships in active com- mission average something like 90 per cent of the enlisted strength the department would allot them if the enlisted personnel strength were not restricted by the appropriations to the present 84,250 men. As a matter of fact the department is hopeful of making a case during the héarings for an increase over the budget fig- ures for the coming year. It is esti- mated that 96,000 men are needed for the present fleet. 80 Promotions Made In Reserve of Navy A total of 38 lieutenants, 33 lieu- tenants, junior grade, and 9 ensigns jhave, since January 1, passed their examinations and been promoted to - the next higher rank in the fleet naval reserve or volunteer naval re- serve for general service, according to an announcement from the Bureau of Navigation. During this period, thirteen enlisted men successfully passed examinations and were commissioned as ensigns. Twenty-eight, or about 23 per cent of the total number of officers and men who took examinations, failed.

It would also seem that proper eredit should be accorded to the in- dividual and to the organization re- sponsible for this meve. The move- ment to make the Banner” the official anthem by an act of Congress is the original idea of Capt. “Daddy” Joyce, national pa- triotic instructor of the Veterans of Foreign Wars.

The official singing of tlhe anthem at the congressional hearings was by Mrs. Elsie Jorse Reilly, a mem- ber of the Veterans of Foreign Wars Auxiliary and the solo soprano of the Overseas Military Band of the Vet- erans of Foreign Wars.

' “Salt in the sugar’ expresses the | opinion of Eugene H. Phifer, member of the firm of Breuninger & Phifer, regarding the Blaine legislation de- signed to sweeten any acidity in business practice. Admitting an amount of necessary good in the pro- posed real estate liscensing, mortgage and “blue sky” bills, he criticized last week legislation as discouraging the present delicate system of busi- ness, The bill providing for the licensing of brokers and salesmen and appoint- ment of a real estate licensing com- mission, he explains, follows some- what closely the ideas of the W1ish- in for little criticism, This docu- ment also makes unlawful simulated Sales or mortgages for fraudulent | purposes. But all of the invective that makes a war novel popular, he points out, is being hurled from various quarters at the mortgage bill. This law au- thorizes a redemption period ,of fif- teen days, or an indefinite one, / Should a court deem justice is being served by its extension. This says, that use, and in States having sucha law, does use, property concerned during the frequently prolonged redemption period, without making payment of any kind.

Rs tS Piss Sem” Te 3 “ > i « eae ene eee — HITECTS PLAN SCHOOL EXHIBITS Will Increase Public’s Knowl- edge of Architecture, Institute Believes. LECTURES TO ACCOMPANY Plans to increase public knowledge of architecture by means of archi- tectural exhibits in the schools of the nation were announced yesterday by the American Institute of Archi- tects. Through its 70 chap*ers, the institute aims in this way to foster “an appreciation of architecture and to build up an informed public con- sciousness in art which should be helpful in the development of our towns and cities.” The idea, according to Prof. Will- jam Emerson, chairman of the in- stitute committee on education, originated with the Philadelphia Chapter, where specially selected pho- tographs and pictures, supplemented by rendered elevations and plans and colored drawings prepared in the oi- fices of architects Were embodied in an architectural exhibition. This exhibition .is making rounds of the high schools and tne vocational schools, in each of which it is being displayed for about two weeks, interpretative lectures being delivered to the students by leading architects in cooperation with offi- clals of the board of education. Significance Twofold. “The significance of these school exhibitions,” it ,was explained, ‘is twofold. First, youth is familiarized with the development of en idea in an architect's office; the architectural process is pictured over a wide range, from a modest home to & monumen- tal structure. Second, youth gains a wider appreciation of good arcii- tecture by visualizing examples of completed structures of all types, from the colonial to the most modern conception.” In nationalizing the plan, the in- stitute authorities hope to establish a continuing scheme of visual in- struction in architecture which shall ultimatley become a part of the rap- idly developing program of adult ed- ucation, now attracting the support of the Carnegie Corporation and oth- er philanthropic bodies. Architects, because of their all- round training in the arts and their responsibility of carrying down the art traditions of the past, are be- lieved to be the appropriate group to direct community education in this sphere. The American Federation of Arts, Prof. Emerson, who is the head of the department of architecture in Massa- chusetts Institute of Technology, pointed out, is the most effective agent in this country in promoting an interest in the fine arts through traveling exhibits. Chapters to Be Active. The institute committee on educa- tion, he said, believes that this work should be encouraged and its scope widened by active cooperation of the federation and the chapters of. the institute. “The committee on education,” he added, “congratulates those commu- nities which have adopted methods whereby good workmanship and good craftsmanship are publicly recognized. This is properly an important phase of the educational field. The public is always impressed by the motive which honors those who deserve it, especially if that honor has been be- lated. Gratifying reports are being received, showing successful operation of apprenticeship training in many cities.”’ The institute, he said, will here- after select the winners of medals which it awards to students in ap- proved schools of architecture on the basis of ‘a continuous course of high standing throughout the period of study in the school rather than for exceptional brilliancy.” Sponsored by the institute, it was announced hg Qr. Kenneth M. Mur- chison, of New York, chairman of the institute's committee on foreign relations, that an exhibition of American archjeacture will be shown in the Royal Academy, at Stockholm, in March. American paintings wil) be displayed by the American-Scan- dinavian Foundation and the Amer- ican Federation of Arts. The Stock- holm exhibition will be opened by the Crown Prince of Sweden. Hardware Trade Reported Normal Business Conditions in Country Shown as Improving. Trade is seasonably normal throughout the country so far as the demand for hardware is concerned, Hardware Age states in its market summary. February is usu- ally the quietest month of the year for hardware dealers and jobbers, and the current month is no exception in this respect. General business conditions are showing some improvement, and an active demand is expected with the advent of spring weather. By the first of*April wholesalers anticipate a brisk demand, as dealers’: stocks are | said to be comparatively low at this | time, and replacement orders are ex- pected to aggregate a healthy volume under favorable weather conditions The future business now ) for later delivery is larger in some market centers than it has been for several years, indicating that dealers | prospects in | are optimistic over the the offing. For the most part, recent price revisions have been minor in character and were mainly in the mature of slight readjustments. No drastic price changes appear likely in the near future. Collections as a rule, are reported as Satisfactory. Com parative New Corner Brick Home © 3830 10th Street N.W. Cor. Quincy St. N.W.

OFFICES’ FUTURISTIC DESIGN CALLED RADICAL DEPARTURE Continued from Page 1, fect in wood carving of the side walls. The side-wall treatment is designed®and inlaid in a modernistic manner with natural white maple and birch. No strains of any de- scription have been used. Setting off this panel effect are beautiful castle columns. The conception of these cOlumns was taken from the old Scotch and Irish castles. The scheme is worked out to show the castle effect in the design of the future buildings, with the sun streaming through and the beacon lights flooding upward to the sky. In are two mirrored doors, surmounted with telechron clocks. The panel work around the walls is 4 feet high, and above this is a highly polished scagiola sianno which blends well in shade and color with the natural wood work below and above. The floor is inlaid in rubber tile in mottled marble, and inlaid in this futuristic design is a large gladi- ator holding a sword in one band and this panel design on the side walls) BILL ON MORTGAGES Continued from Page 1}, thereafter. great and complicated amount of paper work, and the conduct Of sales by United States marshals instead of auctioneers.” Realizing the bill was prompted by thoughts of protection for the home owner from hard-hearted mortgage men, he emphasizes the fact that since the mortgage today is simply an investment the last mortgage banker desires tion of property by foreclosure. “Té@.ere is censure of the ‘blue sky’ bill placing a vast majority of mort- gages issued and sold in Washington in the same class with stock of a company just starting in business, for the reason that under its provisions most mortgages could be sold only after being approved by the Public Utilities Commission. Tax Called Hardship. “The assessment of a $20 minimum tax as a registration fee on each new mortgage is also regarded as an un- necessary expense for home builders and owners and a further detriment to the stimulation of building. It is cited that while the uniform sale of securities act prepared by the Ameri- can Bar Association provides, in per- mitting the sale of mortgages by notification, that the mortgage, gen- erally speaking, shall not be more Blaine legislation states it shall not be more than 70 per cent of the assessed valuation.

C. *ePet ft ee @ Economical Convenient | Homelike Clifton Manor is located in the very heart of uptown Wash- ington} close to churches, schools and stores. Ample transpor- tation facilities exist right at the very door. The units vary from the one room, bath and kitchenette “‘ef- ficiency” ‘unit at $37.50 to the three room, entrance foyer and bath “apartment home” unit at $77.50. All apartments have electrical refrigeration the cost of operation of which is borne by the building owners. Furnished units may be had if desired. The usual ‘‘extra” of $1.00 per-month for switchboard tele- phone service is not charged to the tenants of this buildifg. Twenty-four hour house switchboard and elevator service, free vacuum cleaning service, and in general a highly developed courteous and prompt “personalized service” is offered to pros- pective tenants. Twelve first floor offices or shops, suitable for Doctor, Den- tist, Barber or Beauty Parlor are available. Two large front stores are available for any suitable and high class business. The lobby is finished with marble wainscoting, ceramic tile floor and expensively decorated ceiling, giving to the interior entrance a confirmation of the beauty and luxury apparent from the exterior design of the building. The building is one hundred per cent fireproof and has been constructed of the best materials throughout. Floors in the apartments are of oak parquet, walls and partitions are sound- proof as well as fireproof. The resident manager and his staff of leasing agents will be pleased to show prospective tenants through the building at any time. Some of the special features embodied in the construction, as well as management, of this building are well worthy of mention. They are so seldom found, all together, in other buildings. The management; directing, resident and janitor, are quar- tered in the building, rendering it unnecessary to endeavor to “get things done” by communicating with a clerk in some downtown office. , Electrically operated ventilating equipment has been -in- stalled with the view of elimination of “meal-time” cooking odors, not only in the corridors of the building, but in each individual apartment. Best quality vitreous china and porcelain bathroom fixtures have been installed; all faucets, etc., being chromium plated. Kitchens are equipped with specially designed gas stoves, having four burner tops, oven and broiler. The building contains 56 apartments. Every effort has been made to design, construct and equip the building so that under the management specified, the beauty and con- venience designed, the excellent quality of construction and the high: ideals of management may be resultant in a degree of satisfaction, comfort and service to tenants, hitherto impossible except at prohibitive prices. Although the building is being opened for public inspection today, there have already been leased approximately twenty : apartments for immediate occupancy.

The statisticians’ February statement showed general business in Vanuary somewhat improved over that of December, but the lowest for any January since 1922. Signs of increas- ing activity were noted in the auto- mobile, iron and steel and construc- tion industries, which contemplated New York in the latter category east of the Rocky Mountains, totaling nearly $1,500,000,000, the largest total recorded for any month. Kraft-Phenix Cheese Corporation announced today that %2,825,000 would be spent this year in an aa- vertising and promotional campaign, $2,000,000 of this in the United States and the remainder in Europe, Aus- tralia, Canada and Cuba.

FEBRU ARY 2 gn CE ee ne RS ee RE EE ADVICE ON INVESTMENTS By ‘3 CHARLES W. STORM .In making inquiries address Charlies W, Storm, financial de~- partment of The Washington Post, and inelose a self-addressed, stamped envelope for reply. Indian Motocycle. J. E. V.—I ‘would like to have your advice on Indian Motocycle. Answer—Inasmuch as dividends on the preferred stock, which were pre- viously paid at the rate of $1.75 quar- , terly, were passed October 1, 1929, and that those on the common, which were being paid, 50 cents in cash, every four months were deferred No- vember 1, 1929, both these issues must be eliminated from considera- tion as Investments. They are highly speculative, espé- cially as earnings of the company are on a declining scale, those for the six months ended June 30. 1929, showing a net loss of $414,951, com- pared with a net profit of 870,460, or 46 cents a common share. for similar period of 1928. In the full year 1928, the company sustained a net loss of $465,399. Balance sheet of June 30, 1929, indicated poor financial position, with cash of only $140,651. Craymur Corporation, E. A.—Kindly give me some infor- mation on and also your opinion of Graymur Corporation, listed on the New York Curb Exchange. Answer—Graymur Corporation, in- corporated April 15, 1929, in Dela- ware, operates largely in the nature of an investment trust. It is the policy of this column not to com- ment on or give advice relative to such securities, for the reason that the future success of investment trusts is so largely dependent upon the efficiency of their management. At the same time, it is fully appre- clated that many such corporations are capably managed. Dividends Well Secured. F. W. W.—Will you please give. me information concerning General Wa- ter’ Works & Electric Corporation 7 per cent preferred stock and National Electric Power Co. 7 per cent stock, letting me know if they are consid- ered high-class securities and well se- cured, or if they are speculative? Answer—Neither issue is considered “high class,” although both apparent- ly are well secured as to dividends, as earnings are substantially in excess of the 7 per cent requirements on each of the issues. National Electric Power is controlled by Mid West Util- ities and on this — is highly regarded. BarnsdaH and Others. Miss E. B.—What is the business of Barnsdall Corporation? Are divi- Gends being earned, and it is suitable for investments? What are the divi- dend dates for National Bellas Hess, Dome Mines, Anchor Post Fence and Philip Morris? Which do you think most suitable for investment? Answer—Barnsdall Corporation, a holding and operating company is a complete unit in the oil industry, owning a majority of stock in a num- ber of producing and refinnig com- panies and having extensive oil and gas wells. Dividends of 50 cents a share quarterly are being paid on both class “A” and class “B,” with extras in each instance, these amounting to 25 cents a share in 1929. Stocks pretty well thought of as speculative investmenst. Latest dividend dates on companies named follow: National Bellas Hess, payable January 15, 1930; Dome Mines April 21, 1930; Anchor Post Fence, January 1, 1930; Philip Morris, January 15, 1930. From the standpoint of invest- ment yield, Anchor Post Fence seems most attractive of this lot. Consolidated Textile, Remington Arms W. F—I ‘am a constant reader of your column and would like some in- formation on Consolidated Textile and Remington Arms. Answer—The low. selling price of Consolidated Textile is a reflection of poor earnings for some time, and as FINANCIAL DISTRICT GOSSIP Basil C. Linthicum has beén ap- pointed sales manager of the real es- tate department of the Washington Loan & Trust Co., and will specialize in the sale of investment properties. David N. Houston, trust officer, American Security & Trust Co., and J. Eliot Moran, assistant trust offi- cer, attended the midwinter trust con- ference in New York last week. Charles B. Rollins, formerly of Stein Bros. & Boyce, is now associated with the Washington office of E. H. Rollins & Sons. Mr. Rollins is 4 member of the Bond Club of Wash- ington and has been associated with tein Bros. & Boyce for the last five years. A native of Virginia, he will cover Virginia territory for his new firm. Karl W. Corby, partner in W. B. Hibbs. & Co., has returned from a three weeks’ outing in Florida. Secretary Frederick P. H. Siddons, American Security & Trust Co., 3s back from a business visit in Boston and New York. Vice President Edward J. McQuade, Liberty National Bank, attended the trust conference sessions in New York last week and also the directors’ meet- ing of the Mergenthaler Linotype Co. W. W. Spaid, of W. B. Hibbs & Co., Vice President Francis G. Addison, Jr., Security Savings & Commercial Bank, and Frank Stetson, trust officer, Na- tional Savings & Trust Co., will make a trip to Florida. Thomas W. Brahany, of Crane, Par- ris & Co., has returned from Cuba. * President George L. Starkey of the National Bank of Washington is im- proving steadily from a severe cold. the stock pays no dividends it is a sheer tion. The outlook for Remington Arms is viewed with some optimism, as the recent boost in ammunition prices, it je calculated, should add about $1.000,000 to ‘*rnings in 1930, thus doubling the $2 a share profits re- ported for last year. Bought in Late Crash, F. I. C—In the recent crash Il bought ten shares of General Motors, Grigsby Grunow, Packard, Radio Cor- ration of America and Curtiss right “A;” also 50 shares of Cities Service. So far I have lost money, but, of course, have ho for a brighter future. I would appreciate your opinion as to this lHsted stock. Have been advised by a friend that American Superpower is the best buy on the market and that it is buying some of the bigger utilities. What do you think of it? Also do you con- sider Rio Grande Oil arld Adams Ex- press good buys? Answer—This column can not at- tempt to predict future market move- ments in any stock. However, it may be said that your purchases, espe- cially if you bought outright, of the six stocks first named will in all probability prove profitable to you in the long run. Meanwhile, you will be in receipt of dividends from Gen- eral Motors, Grigsby Grunow,. Pack- ard and Cities Service, with the pros- pects of an early payment on Curtiss Wright “A.” Although American Superpower is under strong management and is now paying a dividend at the rate of $1 a sharg on the reclassified stock, in ad- dition to 86 annual dividens on the preferred issues, this column can not advise you, as it is the invariable practice not to advise concerning in- vestment trusts, such as this com- pany is. The reason for this attitude is that the future success of such corporation is 80 largely dependent upon effitiency of their management. Rio Grande Oil, paying $2 in yearly dividends, and Adams Express, on which $1.60 yearly is paid, are both well thought of from a speculative in- vestment viewpoint. The last named is held in partécularly high regard just now, in view of the fact that it is being steadily absorbed by some very large and influential interests. Has $800 to Invest. Mrs. A. S. P.—Will you please ad- vise me as to what stock or stocks would, in your estimation, make the best investment for about $800 or $1,000, which I have in my posses- sion? Would you consider Cities Service at present price, and how about General Motors common? Answer—Both Cities Service and General Motors common ere well re- garded from the viewpoint of con- servative investments. Both are pay- ing dividends, with every reason to believe that’ at least the present rates will be maintained. It is felt that you would make no mistake whatsoever in purchasing either or both of these stocks at pre- vailing prices, although no attempt tan be made to predict future market movements in any shares. The advice given is purely from an investment viewpoint, and is based not only on the dividend records of these com- panies, but likewise on their future prospects which now appear to be quite promising. American Reinsurance Is Preferred. F. D. S—I have been advised to buy either Producers & Refiners or American Reinsurance. What do you suggest? Answer—From an investment stand- point, Producers & Refiners should be sidetracked as it pays no dividend, and is, therefore, a speculation. Amer- ican Reinsurance pays $3 a year and comes ulder the category of a specu- lative investment. Last October share- holders were offered new stock at 60 in the ratio of one new share for each three held. Rights expired No- vember 18 last. The stock was in- creased from 75,000 to 100.000 shares as a result of the new offerirf®. Pro- ceeds Of this issue were used to in- crease the capital from %750,000 to $1,000,000 and to add 61,250,000 to surplus, bringing that account up to $3,000,000. Bullard; Adolph Goebel. Cc. J. K—I am seeking some in- formation on the Bullard Co. and Adolph Goedel. What can you tell me about the stocks? Answer—Earnings of Goebel have not been up to expectations, with the result that no dividend is paid on the stock, which must be classed as & speculation. Bullard distributes $1.60 a share a year. Earnings have been satisfactory, profits in the first six months of 1929 equaling $2.17 a share, while earnings for the ten months ended October 31, 1928, were larger than for any previous full year. On May 15, 1928, all funded debt was retired, and on March 30, 1929, an initial quarterly dividend of 40 cents & share was paid, and an extra divi- dend of 40 cents on August 15, 1929. The stock may be regarded as a specti- lative investment suitable for the long pull. Brooklyn Union Gas. G. V.—What can you tell me about Brooklyn Union Gas? Do you regard it as a conservative investment? Answer—The company supplies gas to the greater part of Brooklyn and to @ growing section of Queens, New York City. Dividends of $5 per year are being paid. A merger with the Consolidated Gas Co. of New York has been rumored for some time on an exchange of stock, the basis be- leived te be about 1% shares of Con- sOlidated Gas for one share of Broux- lyn Union. Earnings have been good over a period of years. Approximately 25 per cent of Brooklyn Union stock is held by the Koppers Coke interests. Consent of the Public Service Com- mission has been asked by Coppers Coke to sell coke and gas to the Brooklyn Union for 25 years. The stock is a conservative investment suitable for long-term holding. New Haven Railroad. H. N. S—I am a stockholder in New Haven Railroad and would like to have your opinion concerning this | | ster-Brandes, Ltd. share after guarantees and referred dividends, as compared with $8 a share in 1928. Profits in the last quarter of 1929 equaled $4.48 a share, as compared with .06 cents a share in the 1928 quarter. Lower traffic volume is expected for the immediate future, but earnings for the full year are not expected to be much below those for 1929, unless the last half of 1930 fails to prove as favorable as difectors expect. stock appears attractive at current levels and may be regarded favorably for the long pull. Cities Service Dividend Explained. J. H. K.—You have ferquently rec- ommended common stock of the Cit- iés Service Co. a8 a speculative in- vestment. The corporation's earnings On the common stock for ended December 31, earned per share on the common stock. The dividends paid on the stock are 30 cents per share in cash and 6 per cent in stock. At the rate of $32 per share, present mar- ket price of the stock, the 6 per cent of common stock equals $1.92, which amount, plus the 30 cents in cash, totals $2.22. distribution of $2.22, in view of the earnings of $1.18, as mentioned in the corporation’s anua] report for the year ended December 31, 1929? Answer—The cash dividend of 30 cents per share is the only asset dis- tribution, the market appraisal con- tributing the balance. A stock divi- dend, as ruled by the United States Supreme Court, is a distribution of Centra] Atlantic States Service. Miss M. L. M.—I hold ten shares of Packard Motor stock, purchased at 21, and ten shares Central Atlantic States Service, purchased at 16% Would you advise purchasing ten more shares of each at the present market prices? Will you please give me some information concerning Cen- tral Atlantic States Service? Answer—This column can not ad- vise aS to speculative market commit- ments in any stock. It may be said, however, that Packard Motor is con- sidered a good, permanent invest- ment, particularly around present comparatively low prices, because of the company’s past dividend record and its apparently promising future. both as regards earnings and profit distributions to stockholders. ass@ts. was incorporated February 15, 1928, in Delaware to acquire companies en- gaged in the manufacture and dis- tribution of ice in communities lo- cated in Virginia and in northeastern New Jersey. Company also dis- tributes anthracite and bituminous coal and operates two cold storage plants. Has an authorized capital of $3,000,000 7 per cent cumulative pre- ferred (par $100), 6f which $1,103,000 is outstanding and 100,000 no-par common shares, of which 65,000 are outstanding. Income account from March 15, 1928, to November 30, 1928, Showed gross sales of $867,930, and depreciation, Federal taxes and bond interest, of $88,662, equal to $8.04 on the preferred and common. Total current assets, No- vember 30, 1928, were $260,117 and total current liabilities, $126,161, with net working capital, $133,958. Total book value of common stock figured at $1699. Stock is highly speculative and not considered suit- able for investment. Has $200 to Invest, Mrs. W. B. W., Alexandria, Va— | Please advise me how to invest $200 | in some safe stock which would | bring me in a good dividend, yet which possibly might take an up- ward move as the spring season opens, After reading your report on General Motors, I purchased eight Shares. It has since moved up seven points. Answer—Without attempting to predict future market movements in any stock, as that is not the func- tion of this column, it may be pointed out that General Motors, even though it has advanced some- what from the price at which you purchased it, is still, in the opinion of ‘the writer, a good medium for the employment of investment funds. The stock in 1929 sold above $91 a Share and at this writing is only about 7 points up from its low of 1930. Meanwhile, the company is paying $3.30 annually, including extras, in cash dividends, which gives a sub- stantial return on the investment. With your $200 you could purchase outright 4 additional shares of the stock. Standard Oils. Mrs. A. R. E—TI hold some stock of Standard Oil of New Jersey, also some of Standard Oil of New York. I paid $56 for the former and 845 for the latter. They don't seem to look up very much. Shall I con- tinue to hold them? Answer—While no attempt can be made to forecast future market movements in these or any other stocks, it is to be said that both the issues mentioned are very highly regarded. from a speculative investment viewpoint. Both com- panies are paying fairly substantial dividends, and there is every reason to expect that they will continue to do so indefinitely. It is true that Standard Oil of New York is con- siderably under the price at which you bought it, while Standard Oil of New Jersey is several points higher than the figure at which you pur- chased, It is tm all probability equally true that in any sustained upfling of the general market, these shares will render a very good account of themeelves. Meanwhile, you are re- ceiving’a fair income from them and it would appear to be to your ad- vantage to retain your holdings in both companies, Kolster-Brandes. G. P. S—I own 200 shares of Kol- I understand that Kolster Radio Corporation owns 51 per cent of the stock of this company. Inasmuch as Kolster Radio is in re- ceivership, what effect will this have ugon Koleter Brandes? Has Kolster- Brandes issued its final statement for 1929? If go, what was the net result?

Kolster-Brandes has not issued any statement of income account for any period thus far. Texas Holding Co. Cc. A. M.—I have $1,800 worth of Texas Holding Co. oil stock, Hunting- ton Beach, Los Angeles, Calif., left to me by my mother. I used to get divi- dends, bug have not heard from them for two years. Could you tell me if the stock is of any value at the pres- ent time? Answer—Evidently not, as it can not be found listed on any of the ex- changes, nor in the over-the-counter market. Furthermore, there is no record of such a company in our files. Has Money for Bonds. K. B.—I am desirous of investing a few thousand dollare in first-class bonds that will yield an average of about 5% per cent. What is your opinion of the following list of bonds? American Tel. & Tel. 5s, W. I., 1965: Laclede Gas & Electric 5'%s, 1953; Philadelphia & Reading Coal & Iron 6s, 1949; Coppers Gas & Coke 5'%s5, Price Power 6s, 1966; Grand Trunk Railway 7s, 1940? Answer—Philadelphia & Reading Coal & Iron 6s are regarded as semi- speculative and overdesirable, to say the least, 48 a permanent investment. American Tel. & Tel. 5s and Grand Trunk Ry. 7s are very highly regarded itn the in- vestment group. The other bonds are rated as “sound” by leading bond authorities, in which opinion the writer concurs. Seaboard Air: Thermoid. D. F.—What can you tell be about | Line and Thermoid? Seaboard Air What are the Answer—Sea board dividends. Air Line ture. but as the stock pays no divi- .dend it must be classed as a specula- Central Atlantic States Corporation | tion.

Essex, Conn., Feb. 22-—Of the eighth and last generation of Pratts to run “Pratt's Village Smithy” in this town, James Lord Pratt, 68, who bought the blacksmith shop from his father in his late thirties, has re- verted to the making of household utensils and Colonial hardware, the original purpose of the shop, since back in the late seventeenth century the blacksmith was relied upon to make all kinds of things for people al] the way from nails up. “Jim” Pratt’s shop hag won wide fame for the reproductions of Colonial hardware and houséhold utensils which are wrought by hand by him- self and his two assistants. It was thus since the first Pratt opened the shop in 1678 in the same spot now occupied by Jim's shop. Last of Family. Ever since that time the eldest son of each succeeding Pratt family in Essex has shown his loyalty to the hearth by taking up the hammer as it fell from his father’s grasp. But when the present smithy goes there will be no son to relieve his father of his bur- den, and the shop will go to strangers. “The stork just wouldn’t rest on my doorstep,” as Jim puts it. Jim Pratt’s ancestry has been traced back as far as the twelfth century in England; and the American branch of the family was planted with the land- ing here of William and John Pratt, brothers, who came to Hartford with the Rev. Thomas Hooker and his party. Essex was a fishing town when Jim was a boy, and in those days six blacksmiths were kept busy all the time doing work for the sailboats for which this town was famous. Later horses were the principle customers, and the trade grew so tQgt 35 years ago there was a standing list of 150 horses to be regularly shod; now there are only 15 or 20. Saw End of Shoeing. Jim remembers that one week in 1906 when his father, for whom he was then working as an apprentice, left him in charge of the «hop for a while, the young man and a helper had 96 horses to shoe within one week. When Jim took the shop over from his father in 1910 he knew that he could never make a living merely shoeing horses, so he looked about him and the chance remark of a friend that he make a pair of and- irons for him decided Jim in the resolution to go in for hand-wrought hinges and latches and such things. just as his great-great-great-great- great-grandfather had done. And that’s how Jim has got the way he is today. His only regret is that the line of blacksmithing Pratts is to end with him. Mixology Interests Court in Omaha Witness Says Brother Was Skilled in Concocting Cold-Cookers. Special to The Washington Post. Omaha, Feb. 22.—The wording used by a witness describing a “profession” days created such a stir in the court- bailiff to rap repeatedly for order. Tommy Toy, brother of Harry Toy, whose guardian is the plaintiff in suits against the United States Gov- eral court, was in the witness chair “Please tell the court what sort of work your brother did before he went to war,” said Dick Wood, one of the attorneys for the plaintiff. “He was a mixologist,” said the witness, who then explained to a puzzled audience unfamiliar with the term that his brother had been a skilled artisan who worked behind the bar in the pre-Volstead days. In other words, he said, he was a spe- cialist in mixing drinks. “In fact,” he declared, “my brother has mixed drinks for many members of royalty.” Wood's next question, by way of dignifying the former work of his client, was: “How long did he engage in this profession?” Attorneys for the plaintiff are seek- ing $10,000 for injuries which Harry | Toy received in the World War.

SAFETY PROMPTS MOVE way safety, one which is expected to have a far-reaching effect, mobile industry this year will spend $15,000,000 to scrap 400,000 unsafe cars. Was made yesterday by the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce. The 400,000 cars to be junked, with the industry bearing the cost of few miles of service, will be in addition to ap- proximately other 2,500,000 cars which are naturally expected to fade In announcing this step, the in- dustry’s spokesmen express clear recognition that but one factor in the accident situation is being met. They do not expect the result to be a panacea but they do hope “that the safety features of modern auto- mobiles, plus this drive for the ex- termination of unsafe cars will set a standard of action which will be helpful to the entire situation.” in Federal court in. of bygone | |) perts working under Prof. “This widespread ‘experiment will | strike right at the heart of the unsafe | vehicle problem by eliminating a huge block of those cars which are in the | Poorest condition,” says the chamber statement. The scrapipng program is not ex- pected to clear away all unfit cars, but | the expenditure of $15,000,000 in the | experiment is counted upon to dem- onstrate fully the feasibility of carry- ing the action further. The thought behind the industry’s | action is that after a certain mechan- room that it was necessary for thé | ica) condition is past, an automobile | | automatically becomes unsafe. It may | still have in it a usuable few hundred ar few thousand miles of service, but the third of a series of war claim | instead of permitting such a car to be | gold to a user, the industry will make | the dealer an allowance on it to cover | not only the shred of service remain- | ing, but the cost of dismantling the machine beyond the possibility of fur- ther assemblage and use. Vatican to Repair Mural by Angelo “The Last Judgment” Is on | Silverton, the Altar Wall of Sis- tine Chapel. Vatican City, Feb. 22 (A.P.) marks which four centuries have left on Michelangelo's “The Last Judg- ment’ are to be erased soon by ex- Biagetti, art director of the Vatican galleries. The famous painting, one of the out- standing works of the Italian master. occupies a space 66 by 33 feet on the altar wall of the Sistine Chapel.

The President set July 1 ee James Measure Studied by House Military Affairs Group at Session. ed CHIEFS GIVE THEIR VIEWS The House committee on military affairs is studying a bill introduced by Representative W. Frank James, chairman of the committee, to im- prove the ration for the enlisted men of the Army. Gen. Charies P. Sum- merall, chief of staff, accompanied by Maj. Gen. John L.

The bill originally was introduced by Mr. James in the Seventieth Con- gress, when he declared that it waa his belief that the Army ration was below that of the Navy in quality, the Navy | ration being prescribed by law. Hear- ings held at the time seemed to in- _dicate the need for a new deal] for the enlisted men as far as food is ‘concerned. The bill passed the House but died in the Senate. In the meanwhile a new ration was prepared for the Army and an execu- tive order issued by the President, under the provisions of the law passed in 1901, giving him the authority, prescribing the ration. Gen. Summer- all told the committee Thursday that | this ration had proven very satisfac- tory, and that the percentage of de- sertion in the Army had dropped | since it had been prescribed. Both Gen. Summerall and Gen.

Paper Gets First Press for Birthday |: Oreg., Appeal Recovers 1852 Vintage for Celebration. Silverton, Oreg., Feb. 22.—The old | printing press on which the first is-| sues Of the Silverton Appeal were | printed, has returned to Silverton in time to celebrate the fiftieth anniver- sary of the paper it helped to launch. The press is in very good condition and could, one editor says, “in a pinch etill turn out a paper.” The old printing press was manu- factured in 1852. It is told that the press was packed from the East into the Williamette Valley on the back of a mule over the dim forest trails of the Oregon pioneers. In 1880 it was brought to Silverton from Brownsville by H. L. Giles, a printer, j}and the Slverton Appeal was begun. | |The first issue of the paper went to T. R. Blackerby, and is now in the possession of P. L. Blackerby, recently Calf. After the old press left the Appeal offices it went to Marquam, where it was used for job printing for a num- ber of years. It was here that the Silverton collector found it a short time ago and brought it to Silverton. SINKING OFF ARGENTINE COAST erm language by versational method, ear.

Keen. At the most critical point of the Nation's financial crisis of 1893 it was discovered privately that President Cleveland would have to undergo a serious surgical operation. Because of the dire. political and economic uences which news of this op-' eration would have brought abow., complete secrecy and maximum speed were essential. The “silver heresy,” aided the influence of senators from the rth- western silver-producing States had spread far and wide. Widespread loss of confidence in the Government's credit precipitated @ panic, and during the year 1893 no less than 642 banks suspended. Advocated Sound Money. President Cleveland was known as _@ firm advocate of sound money. Such was the tense situation when, on June 18,.1893, Dr. Robert M. Reilly examined a rough place on the roof of the President’s mouth and found a malignant tumorous wth as large as a quarter, and some diseased bone. The pathologist advised Mr. Cleve- land to consult Dr. Joseph D. Bryant, long his personal physician and friend. Dr. Bryant confirmed the as the date of the operation, and on June 30 courageously set August 7 for a special session of Co to vote on the repeal bill of the Sher- man act. On June 30 Dr. Keen and Dr. Bryant held a secret consultation on the de- serted deck of the Fail River boat tied at her New York dock, and the final examinations of the patient took ce July 1 on Commander E. C. Ronedior yacht Oneida, selected for the operation by Col. D. §. Lamont, President Cleveland’s Secretary of War. Dr. Ferdinand Hasbrouck, a skillful dentist, first extracted two upper bi- cuspid teeth from the President’ mouth and undertook. the delicate task of anesthetizing the patient, first using nitrous oxide (“laughing gas”) and then changing to ether. The yacht Oneida steamed slowly and mysteriously up the East River. The yacht had been specially repainted for the occasion so she would not be recognized. Dr. Bryant performed the actual operation. Great care was taken to avoid eye injury and a facial scar, which would inevitably have betrayed that an operation had been performed. With infinite skill practically the entire left upper jaw was removed. There was the expected hemorrhage, pack- ing and after-care. The operation was | @ success. On July 5 President Cleveland “walked from the launch to his resi- dence with but little apparent effort,” writes Dr. Keen. residence in this case was Gray Gables, the Presi- dent’s summer home at Buzzard’s Bay, now used as a roadhouse. There he convalesced before the momentous congressional session. But all was not well. A second op- | was decided upon and took | place July 17, Dr. Bryant again wield- -ing the knife.

COUNCIL Dean Cogan, of Georgetown University School, Elected President. LAW DEBATE MARCH 12 The first students’ council formed in the school of dentistry of George- town University wes organized last week with representatives on it from the second, third and fourth year classes. Dr. WHliam N. Cogan, dean of the school, was elected president of the council, and the Rev. John L. Gip- prich, the regent, was made honorary president. Organized for the purpose of bringing about closer cooperation between the students and faculty, the new council also will act as a governing board for the student body, with the dean and regent acting in advisory capacities. Each class has its own chairman. The movement was initiated. by W. R. Lucas, student president of the Cogan Dental Society, and was enthusiasti- cally indorsed by members of , the three classes attending the organiza- tion meeting. The senior or fourth year class is represented on the council by George Jani, chairman; Albert King and William Vogal. Junior ,representa- tives are Thomas McHale,. chairman; Charles R. Gatusky, John J. Allen, Arthur Dick and William E. Galla. while the representatives of the sec- ond year men are Albert J. Brogan, chairman, and Thomas J. Waldron. Members of the first year class are excluded from the council. Lawrence McConnell, a junior, read the weekly paper at the meeting of the Cogan Dental Society Tuesday night. This society of students, or- ganized in honor of Dean Cogan, has done much toward creating school spirit, a subject on which the dean addressed its members at the meeting. McConnell’s paper was on “Pain,” the subject being discussed later by Thomas McHale, John J. Allen, Ernest A. Breton, jr., Prancis I. Heitmbach and Joseph Coyle. W. R. Lucas Is president of the society. The, third prize debate at the school of law will be held the afternoon of March 12 followed by another on April 16.

The purposes of the organization were dis- cussed by Alma Dodson, president. The character program of Armstrong, now centering on scholarship, was the subject of home-room conferences where scholarship creeds and study charts have been introduced as special features.

The accomplished impromptu after- dinner speaker has “a bag full of tricks’’ on which to draw, and not the least important of these is a wide assortment of picturesque words and phrases, Dr. Homer J. Councilor declared in opening a special course on “spontaneous speaking” at the Southeastern University of the Y. M, C. A. last week. The average audience tires of a monotony of ordinary words, but its imagination readily is stimulated by words or phrases which conjure up pictures and tell a story in them- selves, Dr. Councilor stated. Such words, he said, are “chivalrous,” “wistful,” “crucified” and suggestive phrases are “knighthood of knavery,” “candle-lighting time” and ‘“free- masonry of rascality.” A “lack of terminal facilities” has ruined many a speaker, the class was told.

Fills New Public Speaking Post Oratory Department; Course in Business Harry G. Roberts Appointed Assistant Professor in Curriculum Extended. Conference—Jour- nalism Fraternity Adds Eight. Establishment of a new faculty post in the department of public speaking of the George Washignton University and the appointment of Henry G. Roberts, as assistant professor of pub- lic speaking, is announced by Dr. Cloyd Heck Marvin, president of the University. Prof. Roberts will enter upon his duties in the fall. The enlargement of the staff of the department will permit further ex- pansion of the public speaking work which is being developed in the uni- versity under the endowment of Mrs. | ing Chauncey M. Depew. The new faculty member is a grad- | uate of the University of Illinois and | holds when plans will be | made for the Thursday programs in | the degree of master of arts from Cornell University. He has had wide experience in debate, both as speaker and coach, and is a member of Delta Sigma Rho, honorary debat- fraternity. He will teach the elementary courses in public speaking at George Washington and will as- sist Prof. Willard Hayes Yeager in coaching the debate teams. The curriculum of the department will be expanded through the addi- tion of a number of undergraduate courses and new courses in the grad- uate field. Under the guidance of Prof. Yeager, who;holds the Depew professorship of public speaking and is head of : the department, a method of instruction in public speaking has been developed at George Washington which has sev- eral new features. In the opinion of Prof. Yeager, “the empty-headed speaking that is so prevalent today results from a general belief that a sonorous voice and pleasing gestures are all that ts necessary to make an orator.” There are too many speakers in public life and elsewhere who are inadequately trained for public speak- ing, he says. The plan of instruction, therefore, lays equal emphasis on three factors necessary to successful speech, one or more of which is frequently neglected. These factors are: Careful selection and study of the subject; careful com- position so as to adapt that subject to the audience, and effective oral presentation. In consideration of the fact that the average person makes a pwhblic speech only on the very occasion, whereas he uses 30,000 words a day in orally communicating his ideas to others, the department is stressing the teaching of private speech. For this purpose ference is used, the students recon- structing in the classroom the actual conditions of a business conference. A third new feature of instruction is the use of the problem method in classes in advanced debate. Here the problems are based on actual legal cases, the student being given a state- ment of facts in a case from which he must prepare a debate by appli- cation of the rules governing logical theory. Pi Delta Epsilon, honorary journal- ism fraternity, has elected eight men to membership in recognition of out- standing work upon student publica- tions. The new members are Kenneth Iverson, secretary of the board of editors of the Cherry Tree; Fletcher Henderson, a member of the sub- | editoral board of the Hatchet; Charles Jacquette, a member of the board of editors of the Hatchet; Robert Con- sidine, of the board of editors of the literary _magazine; Robert Gray, sports editor of the Cherry Tree; Henry W. Herzog, business manager of the Chenry Tree; Lewis N. Dem- bitz, a member of the board of edi- tors of the Hatchet, and Frank Scriv- ener, who has been a member of the board of editors of the literary maga- zine. Six women students of the univer- sity, of outstanding achievement in scholarship and university activities, have been elected to membership in the Hour Glass Honor Society.

Tenors and Sopranos Cause Papuans Pain Canberra, Feb. 22 (A.P.).— The gramophone has replaced the savage tom-tom of the natives of the ma- laria-infested interior of New Guinea. The administrator in his annual re- port to the Australian government, said that most of the Papuans scorn to work for money. But a gramo- phone with a few old records they find almost irresistible. The loudest jazz makes them roll their eyes and sway in ecstasy. The sighing tones of a tenor’ aggravates them, and the shrill achievements of a soprano make them cover their ears. - Germans Begin Razing Forts Near Strasburg Kehl, Germany, Feb. 22 (A.P.).— Demilitarization work has begun in this bridgehead zone which is situ- ated on the German bank of the Rhine opposite Strasburg. A French garrison has held the brideghead for ten years.

TOBE AT HOWARD Exhibit Has Been at Lead- ing Institutions in Travel Course. FRENCH PLAY TUESDAY } The College Art Association exhi- bition, now at Princeton University, will be shown at Howard University March 31 to April 12. This exhibit, which has been shown in leading colleges, will be followed by other traveling exhibits, including one of the Howard art department which is now on tour of Southern institu- tions. That the Howard exhibit is a defi- nite step toward an appreciation for art in schools of the South is the opinion of many Southern college officials, who have written com- mendation to the department here concerning the effectiveness of the exhibit. Unless the effort to raise funds for construction of a suitable gallery on the ground floor of An- drew Rankin Memorial Chapel, now being conducted by Prof. James V. Herring, head of the department of art, is immediately successful, these exhibits will, of necessity, be posted in. the crowded studios of the de- partment where they will be acces- sible to the general student body and the public only after school hours. The Howard exhibit has been out since last Thanksgiving. It consists of mounts done by students in the department of art, six pieces from each class, including design. water color, life color and cast drawings. The department plans to supplament this exhibit with one consisting ex- clusively, of oil paintings. Galleries in which such work may be on ex- hibition at all times for the univers- ity are being made possible by con- tribution of art patrons. Le Cercle Francaig will present an Original play in Library Hall at 8 o’clock Tuesday. The play has been written by Audrae Hudson-Tavares, of the senior class, and a native of Juarez Gunaguato, Mexico, and has been dramatized in one act by stu- dents of the department of romance languages. A French spelling bee will be held, with informal conversa- tion. Speakers at the university during the past week included Dr. John Herman Randall, assistant professor of philosophy at Columbia Univer- sity, who discussed “Creative Living.” Alain Leroy Locke, head of the de- partment of philosophy, Negro Rhodes scholar, has returned from a series of lectures at Harvard Uni- versity. He addressed the Harvard Philosophical Club on “Cultural Rel- ativism,” and the Harvard Liberal Club on “New Africa.” Addresses were also made by him at the Ford Hall Forum on *‘“Self-Determining the Negro,” and he was the dinner speaker at the American Congrega- tional Missionary Society meeting, where he spoke on “The Situation fn Haiti.” He addressed also the Mas- sachusetts branch of the Women's League for Peace and Freedom and the Twentieth Century Club, of Bos- ton. lowa Literary Cheap Enough.

Those closely associated with the Swedish star in the making of her! previous pictures, agree that her| depiction of the character role in the | Eugene O'Neill drama is her greatest | performance, enhanced in power and | dramatic intensity with the addition of her vocal readings. Garbo was) familiar with her Anna Christie Many months before it was even sug- gested as a vehicle for her talkie | Gebut.

It is a Warner Bros.’ and Vitaphone picture. With many lavish scenes photo- graphed in Technicolor, this ‘picture combines the sophisticated splendor of New’ York and Cannes with a pro- fusion of brilliant Oriental settings. Barthelmess is supported by Con- stance Bennett, Mildred Van Dorn, Anders Randolf, E. Alyn Warren, Dorothy Matthews, Barbara Beonard, King Hoo Chang and many other favorites. It is the story of Sam Lee, the supposed son of Lee Ying, a wealthy Chinese merchant and philosopher. Through his excellence in study and sports at college, Sam was popular— to a certain extent. The barrier of his reputed parentage stood between him and happiness. Traveling in Europe, Sam fell in love with a beautiful American 680- ciety girl, who returned his affection until she was told he had yellow blood. Sam's romance seemed doomed, but a chance discovery led to exciting consequences and @ happy ending. Selected short films, inclucgng Vi- taphone Varieties and the Metropoli- tan News Review, complete the bill. When “Son of the Gods” was start- ed First National officials decided that this Rex Beach story deserved unlimited production values.

BELL HERE have been rumors, and I am not sure that all are ill- founded. I mean about new motion picture theaters that are alleged to be ready to rear themselves upon more than one of Washington’s most desirable downtown sites. There is, of course, the not too remote possibility that it may be nothing more than another typhoon of gossip, but it is amazing to one who has observed the cinema closely during the last decade or two—or three—with what rapidity picture houses constructed to represent the last word in beauty, comfort and capacity become hope- lessly outmoded. The orgy of theater building that immediately pre- ceded the arrival of sound was supposed to have supplied the Nation with a degree of overseating that could not soon be overcome. That has proved to be not at all true. The Capital supplies evidence that may be accepted as typical of the entire country. A scant twélve years ago, with the almost simul- taneous dedication of the Palace, Metropolitan and Rialto Theaters it was deemed doubtful, even by the most sagacious, that the picture- going public ever would multiply itself sufficiently to fill all of the seats that had been afforded it for first-run diversion. As one who makes a weekly pilgrimage to several of the down- town theaters in pursuit of a pleasant profession, I defy any and all to substantiate the charge of overseating. It seems to me that I spend the major part of my time when reviewing pictures standing back against the wall waiting for some one to vacate a possible spot where I may sit down! It may not actually be as bad as that. I am merély expressing the way it seems. The point, however, is that at too many hours on too many days there are too few seats to go ‘round—a condition that it was thought not so long ago never could exist. ; The crowding even extends ofit into the residential theaters, where I happen to know !t was never expected to happen for years to come! * *. . * 5 aeernecnce to say, this is a circumstance for which the entre- preneurs long have hopéd. And since it has eventuated, they are casting about to determine, with deliberation and that acumen for which they are so justly celebrated, where they had better go from here. e One of the suggested answers has been to the southwest corner of Tenth and F streets; another, an F street location opposite the Fox; still others scatter themselves in\all directions from almost any midcity area you may care to name. Too much has been inkled for there not fo be a spark or two of fire to account for all the smoke. It is my privilege, as it is yours, if you wish, to entertain more or less definite notions of who will build, when, where and why, but such frank and unadulterated guess- work is beside the fact that Washington could use a few more amusement places of the first rank. Not in addition to the first-run houses now in operation, but to supplant them. The pictures, I mean to say, have run away from their housing. With the probable early advent of wide-angle photography and pro- jection—although I confess to a bit of discouragement in so far as this particular aspect of the business of photoplay exhibition is con- cerned—the situation will become more acute than it is at present. The theaters that were built a decade or more ago are not archi- tectured in such fashion as to facilitate the installation of the new mechanical devices, or to give best effect to the new manner of throwing the picture upon the screen, granted that the installation can be successfully accomplished. Furthermore, a 2,000-seat house, that was a whale of a place a few years ago, is a mere “shooting gallery’’ today. It is upon these considerations that I am basing my view that the repeated assurances that new theaters are to go up in Wash- ington should not be taken too lightly. One may spring up in your front yard any minute now! And that is not quite so far-fetched as it sounds, either, for it has come to my knowledge that an executive whose standing in the industry gives weight to his words, upon surveying the local situa- tion, dropped the remark that screens which a few years ago looked a mile away now seem to be resting on your lap. It . . * * S has been intimated, the need extends to the neighborhoods. A is not foreign to my personal knowledge that when Harry M. Crandall built the Tivoli Theater -he was confident that he had antici- pated the growth of the residential area of which Fourteenth street and Park road may be said to be the center by a great number of years. When the Shrine of the Sacred Heart erected its new edifice at Sixteenth street and Park road, relinquishing the Tivoli site to Mr. Crandall, that congregation also was positive it had spanned the distant years to come. As soon as this, it is a matter of the utmost difficulty, I am led to believe, to secure a seat in either! Where 1,000 seats were too many a few years ago, 5,000 today are not enough. So, along with my office mate and confrere, Mr. Daly, who is forecasting the Washington of 1980 in another section of today’s issue of The Post, I imagine I can perceive an elaborated amusement scheme for the National Capital of the future—not so far away, incidentally, as a half century hence. The downtown theaters, then, will be of no less than 5,000 capacity. They will be built along lines that will accommodate themselves not only to the satisfactory projection of whatever type of screen enter- tainment may be developed with the years, but to any known type of entertainment to which they may be wished to be put—pageantry, opera, classic drama, musical spectacle, whatnot. The mistake of the picture people in the past has been that they have not been able to visualize the tremendous strides of which their industry is capable. medium of expression, hedged about with limitations that left panto- mime alone the implement of the actor. It has latterly grown up with a suddeness that is just a bit staggering. It is high time for the designers of the temples of the cinema to awake to the potentiali- ties of this fluid thing they have thought they have had so admirably under control within any four walls and under any sort of roof. It won’t be long now until the Roxy, in New York, with its 6,200 seats, will not be more than half large enough. That is, provided the picture is good. Any house is too large if you can not fill it! . ; fee’ HE picture outlook, by the way, is especially attractive for the local current week. It is doubtful if an inferior release is to be found upon any screen. Chief interest, I dare say, will center in the first audible effort of that baffling Scandinavian enigma, Greta Garbo, at the Columbia. In ‘Anna Christie,’ she brings back to the silver sheet a listenable camera version of the O’Neill play in which Blanche Sweet appeared in silence. That admirable character actor, George Marion, appears again in the same role he created in Miss Sweet’s production; and Charles Bickford is to be seen in the part formerly played by the late William Russell. These are details, however, that amount to lit- tle in comparison with the probable degree of accent to be revealed by Miss Garbo in her first talking picture. The degree of Miss Garbo’s accent, I understand, is negligible. Without any of the usual voice-test nonsense, she walked into her talking scenes with a total indifference to the panic that assails so many attempting a new dramatic medium, and came off wholly vic- torious. Whatever Swedish accent may be discernible, can not, in this instance, be out of character. My impression is that not since ‘““‘Broken Blossoms” has Richard Barthelmess essayed a Chinese role on the screen. He undertakes something of the kind in “‘Son of the Gods,” at the Metropolitan, and, according to Rex Beach, who wrote the story, does it rather more than ample justice. Over at the Rialto, Mary Nolan, so they tell me, embraces an oppor- tunity to demonstrate that she is an emotiona] actress of no mean capabilities in “‘Undertow.” Here is a girl whom I applaud for having overcome handicaps that would have spelled the doom of any one less courageous, and I hope all of the nice things told me of her work by Mr. Sharick will be authenticated. It will be gratifying, too, if Helen Twelvetrees, in ‘“‘The Grand Parade,” at the R-K-O-Keith Theater, makes good half of the boasts that have been made in her behalf. She is entitled to what the jargon of the industry pungently terms a “‘break,” and I hope she gets it. But, I repeat, it would be nice to be sure of a seat!

Miss Nolan’s beauty and ability to act made her an easy favorite in silent pictures, then with the advent of the “talkies” it was discovered that this young lady had a distinctly at- tractive stage voice. In her first talk- ing picture, “Shanghai Lady,” she achieved immediate success and won for herself a long-term starring con- tract, under which the second pic- ture, “Undertow,” is the current at- traction at the Rialto Theater. “Undertow” is the story of a beauti- ful girl married to a man of many misfortunes, which cause him to re- tire within himself and refuse to meet the world. Wivacious and lov- ing gayety and the crowds, the young woman finds herself practically ex- iled from the world of pleasure azd living a drab existence that finally becomes unbearable. Still loyally lo®ing her husbari, the young girl can not forget her carefree and joyous life before mar- riage and the man to whom she was engaged, but who lost her when she married her present husband. Then their complete retirement from 60- ciety comes when her husband loses his sight. Bravely trying to forget her troubles in helping her husband with his work, the girl decides to accept her fate when destiny brings back her former sweetheart, who has become a lighthouse inspector. On the bleak shores where her husband has sought seclusion a mighty drama is enacted ith a background of storm and ‘Yoaring sea. Miss Nolan, it is said, reaches the greatest heights of her successful career as the dramatic scenes follow one another like lightning flashes in the unfoldment of the powerful story. : : This splendid drama was directed by Harry Pollard, who was responsi- ble for the tremendous success of “Show Boat.” In the cast with Miss Nolan are Audrey Ferris, Robert Ellis, Churchill Ross and John Mack Brown. Brown has had important roles in many big pictures, but this is his first role reaching the importance of that of leading man. Ellis will be remem- bered for his excellent work in “Broadway” and “The Love Trap.” Ross was the leading comedy char- acter for three years in the popular legians.” Another novel atmospheric feature is introduced at the Rialto in con- nection with this bill. It is called “Glorious Vamps,” and is the frst reel of its kind, and was produced by United Artists. There is a good taik- ing comedy, a special cartoon, an all- color singing reel and the Univer3al Newsreel with Graham McNamee an- nouncing. A special overture by Ray Hart and the Rialto Orchestra com- pletes the program. Alice White’s Next. Alice White’s next starring picture for First National, “Sweet Mamma,” will be directed by Ray Enright, who recently directed “Song of the West” and “Golden Dawn.” The new pic- ture will be. begun as soon as Miss White returns to the studios from a short vacation.

MINSTRELS AN ADDED WALLOP AT R-K-O-KEITH “The Grand Parade,” featuring Helen Twelvetrees and Fred Scott, is the feature at R-K-O Keith’s. It is distinctly a new type of entertainmént on the screen, for in addition to its vital, forceful drama, it presents a complete minstrel show. Wonderful music, catchy songs, spicy jokes and the glittering pageantry of Negro entertainment supplement the drama of this remarkable achievement in the field of audible films. The two featured players, Helen Twelvetrees and Fred Scott, are play- ers af signal ability. Miss Twelve- trees is a Broadway stage favorite, while Mr. Scott is famous as a con- cert singer. He is good-looking and his fine tenor voice registers beauti- fully. : The supporting cast includes Rich- ard Carle, famous musical comedy star; Marie Astaire, Russell Powell, Bud Jamieson, Jimmy Adams, Lillian Leighton, Spec O’Donnell, Sam Blam, Tom Malone and Jimmy Aubrey. Every player in the company is ideal- ly cst, the reSult being exceptional- ly fine character pertrayals. ; Edmund Goulding, famous novelist and playwright, wrote the story and was the producer of “The Grand Pa- rade.” He also wrote and directed Glorfa Swanson’s successful dialogue picture, “The Tres r.” The story deals with a minstrel singer who wins success, but through the influence of an evil woman, sinks to the depths, a drunken sot. He is Salvaged by a boarding-house slavey and she succeeds in making a man of him. There is tremendous drama in the development of the theme and the climax is one of unsurpassed in- terest. The supplementary features include “The Setting Son,” a hilarious com- edy based upon a Witwer story; ‘a Radio News and Freddy Clark and his R-K-Olians. **Back Pay.”’ “Back Pay,” Corinne Griffith’s next Starring picture, now in production, has the following cast: Miss Griffith, Grant Withers, Montagu Love, Vivian Oakland, Hallam Cooley, Dee Loretta, Louise Beavers, Jim Marcus, Geneva Mitchell, Bill Bailey and Dick Gordon: The picture is being directed by Will- lam A. Seiter. It is based upon a story by Fannie Hurst. Leila With Billie. Leila Hyams has been assigned the second feminine lead supporting Billie Dove in the latter’s next starring picture, “Other Men’s Wives,” now in production at the Burbank studios. Sidney Blackmer, Albert Gran and meee Brook are also prominent in the cast. RANGERS WILL PROVE METTLE IN GREY TALE When Texas seceded from Mexico and declared itself a free and inde- pendent republic, in September, 1836, it was flying the famous lone star flag. This flag bore two horizontal stripes, one red and the other of white, on a field of blue, in which was set the white five-pointed star, }emblem of the American settlers who fought against the tyranny of the Mexican government for freedom. The lone star flag waved over the Alamo when Davy Crockett madé his sensational stand against the armies of Santa Anna near San Jacinto, on March 6, 1836. Early the following month Gen, Sam Houston came to the rescue, routed the enemy, and afterward became the first president of the republic. Later Texas was recognized by the United States, and in 1845 was made a member of the Union. The Texas rangers was organizéd in 1832 and bore the brunt of the conflict when Texas separated from Mexico. Later they protected the frontier from Indians, and since have protected the border. The activities of these men form the background for Zane Grey’s ro- mantic and thrilling story, “The Lone Star Ranger,”’ which hag been adapt- ed for the all-talking screen by Fox Movietone, and in which George O’Brien and Sue Carol .portray the leading roles. It is the new screen attraction at the Fox Theater. Along in the seventies and eighties cattle rustling became rife, and whole herds were stolen, so the rangers were chosen for their absolute fearlessness, and they carried terror to the out- laws. They were the real gun-fight- ing men of the world. | : Besides O’Brien and Miss Carol, the cast includes such well-known favor- ites as Walter McGrain, Warren Hy- mer, Lee Shumway, Russell Alexander Callam, master of cere- monies, will introduce another Fan- chon and Marco idea, “Gardens.” In this colorful ._production aré many well-known stage and screen players. The Three Slate brothers, who -will shortly be seen on the Fox screen in “Happy Days,” are the featured play- ers. Others include Cliff Nazarro, Lee Hall and Charline Egsley, Vina Zolle and Mae and an entire new group of Sunkist beauties. The Fox Grand Orchestra, undér the baton of Leon Brusiloff, will offer another in the series of special ar- rangements—this time the works of Sigmund Homberg. Fox Movietone News completes the bill.

— ee eee ll eel ee ——— om ee ee ee eel eee — a — —_— —— | doubtedly developed a new form for musigal comedy. THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, A ee Ne a FEBRUARY: EE FOOTLIGHTS AND SHADOWS By JOHN J. DALY 3 dooks like a big week on the theatrical horizon. Mr. Flo Ziegfeld, the master of them all, comes*to town with what is undoubtedly one of the finest contributions made to the musical comedy stage. Over at Poli’s, Miss Ethel Barrymore will be seen in a play of: European society life, Lili Hatvany’s “The Love Due?’— an adaptation by the American poet and playwright, Miss Zoe Akins. Here, then, is diversity. On the north side of the Avenue—music and romance. On the south sidé of the Avenue, Ethel of the Barry- mores in romance sans music. Of course, there might be a piano solo or something like that in “The Love Duel,” with Miss Barrymore at the console; for, ’tis rumored, she started to be a concert pianist before seriously considering the stage. Any European drawing room without a grand piano is no drawing room at all, at all. If there is a piano, some one—undoubtedly Miss Barrymore—must, during the action of the drama, playfully caress the keys. Whichever way theatergoing feet turn, therefore—either to the north or the south—there is goodly entertainment in store. ‘Show Boat” had its first showing in any theater here. That was in the National Theater—a night when the audience did not get into the streets again until somewhere near 1:30 in the morning, to make @ real Irish bull. Since then the pruning knife has been applied and the show comes off on time. : : * * . * T the age of 14, Ethel Barrymore made her stage debut as Lucy in Sheridan’s “The Rivals.”” Her grandmother, the elder Mrs. John Drew, was the most noted of Mrs. Malaprops of the American theater. Ray Henderson, historian of the theater, recalls that Charles Frohman made Ethel Barrymore an understudy in “Cath- erine,” in which Annie Russell was starring, and later let her play Stella de Gex in “His Excellency the Governor,’’ when this comedy was sent on tour. Then came “Captain Jinks of the Horse Marines,” written by Clyde Fitch, most prolific and popular of playwrights of the day. Fitch opposed risking his play with the young girl as Lady Trentoni, but Frohman overpersuaded him. The production opened in Phila= delphia, where Ethel had been born and where the Drew-Barrymore family had lived and the elder Mrs. Drew had managed her own theater for half a century. Ethel was quite frightened when ‘she made her first appearance on that memorable night and her nervous- ness was not lessened when a voice in the gallery called out: “Don’t be scared, Ethel, the Drews is all good actors!” The comedy failed in Philadelphia, even though the audience was friendly, and the press criticized Fitch and Frohman for permitting ® young and immature actress to appear in so important a role. A short tour followed and then Frohman decided to take “Captain Jinks” into New York. Fitch had two successful dramas on Broad- way at the time and decided the fate of a third was not so important in the face of the manager’s faith in the actress. Two weeks only were announced, but Broadway reversed the Quaker City’s verdict and made the newest of the Barrymores the sensation of the day. Three weeks later she had the first great thrill of her life when she saw her name in electric lights over the theater door. Ethel Barrymore has acted many roles, diverse and exacting. - In _ Shakespeare she has been seen as Juliet, Portia and Ophelia; in ' @pen to the public from 11 a. m. to -_ — ee — ee eee eee ee Sheridan as Lady Teazle in “The School for Scandal.” She intro- duced John Galsworthy as a playwright to America by acting the drab charlady, Mrs. Jones, in ‘“‘The Silver Box,” giving her admirers a shock when they saw the glamorous Ethel with a smut on her nose and her hair untidily twisted into a knot at the top of her head, while she scrubbed floors. She acted Nora in Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House.” Miss Barrymore has appeared in dramas by Barrie, Somerset Maugham, Oscar Wilde, Edward Sheldon, Edna Ferber. and many other modern writers. Pinero’s drama, ‘‘Mid-Channel,” was a definite’ mile-post in her career. One of her best known roles was in Zoe Akins’ “‘Declasee.” Miss Akins adapted “‘The Love Duel” from the Hungarian of Lili Hatvany, the piece at Poli’s this week. Last year Miss Barrymore appeared here in G, Martinez Sierra’s “The Kingdom of God.” “The Love Duel” is the first play by Lili Hatvany to be seen in America. Baroness Hatvany was a leading figure in central European political and social circles before she became an author, which she did by accident. While she was resting from war-relief work, she went to Berne, Switzerland, and conditions in that neutral zone moved her to write a satiric comedy, called “‘Noah’s Ark.” A friend who read {t secured its production in Budapest, much to her family’s resent- ment. It achieved sufficient success for the critics-to doubt it was the work of an amateur. They accused Ferenc Molnar of being its author and hiding behind the beautiful Lili’s skirts to escape the consequences of a political satire in those touchy times. Since then the baroness has had several plays produced in Europe, but because she oftentimes makes use of the characters and lives of her friends and acquaintances, she is said to be out of favor in the fashionable circles she used to frequent. 5 isms a Ziegfeld show comes to town Flo Ziegfeld usually comes with it. He likes Washington. The affection is reciprocated. Washington likes Ziegfeld. Only on one ‘or two occasions have theatergoers ever been disappointed in his productions even then they weren’t thoroughly disappointed—but, well, “The Comic Supplement” and ‘Betsy,’ to recall the dead past, did not come up to standard. The Ziegfeld standard is mighty high. Only Ziegfeld would have tackled ‘‘Show Boat” in the first place. It seemed impossible to make a complete musical comedy out of Edna Ferber’s novel. Yet he did it. As a matter of fact, in taking the novel and making a musical comedy script out of it Ziegfeld un- The result was the only production of its kind in the history of the American stage. From the standpoint of plot structure, development and presentation there was never anything quite like ‘‘Show Boat’’—as all who saw it here a season or so ago will attest. Capt. Andy, Parthy Ann, Magnolia, Ravenal and all that army of players who lived through so many vivid experiences in the picturesque “Show Boat,”’ who floated up and down the Mississippi River and entertained hundreds of gallants and their ladies, are here on the stage. As the play unfolds all those scenes are revived—the Chicago World’s Fair, with its Oriental dancers and beautiful sightseers; women in stunning gowns, long sleeves and long trains and great hats with plumes; the Ferris wheel in the far distance, and a pageant of beauty in the foreground. For contrast, there are the scenes along the river itself, with the “Show Boat” company and its band bursting into the gala crowd of sightseers, and, as the story progresses, the marvelous miusic, tuneful and distinctive, matching the movement of the story, enthralls the ear and stirs the heart. The costumes, illustrating ail of these interesting American periods, are extremely picturesque, and the atmosphere of life on the Missis- sippi is glamorously created by Joseph Urban’s superb settings. Because of the unique structure of this play, and especially the extraordinary scene in which a theater is presented within a theater, Florenz Ziegfeld is said to have rivaled Reinhardt himself in stage- craft, novelty and scenic beauty. The Lady Lies. Suchorowsky’s beautiful painting, “Nana,” hag been placed on exhibi- tion at 1417 G street northwest, and will be remain there for a few days, supple and the embodiment of health and grace. Her surroundings are luxuriant. She lies nude on a couch, having thrown aside the silken man- tle that has been wrapped about her, and which partially conceals one of her limbs. The sunlight streams through a window at her feet. Awak- ening and looking about her, she be- comes conscious of another person in room; gradually, in the dawn of full sensibility, she recognizes the re- flection of herself in a large mirror opposite her couch. This is the mom- ent depicted. 11 p. m. The picture is a revelation in art, and is one of the most realistic ever exhibited, having charmed the artists and lovers of art in many countries since it won for the artist the gold medal at the Russian Acad- emy in 1881. The painter spent three years upon it, and the picture is Valued at $85,000. It is a work repre- sentative of the school in which mod- ern Russian painters have excelled, the giving their work an individuality in style quite unlike that of any other nationality. The picture was painted to depict the Po te a of a young maiden on a ning. “Nana” has a Piquant and fascinating beauty; a pure blonde, with hair of warm gold and @ superbly rounded figure, firm, Repeat Engagement. Since the opening of Ziegfeld’s “Show Boat” at the National Theater, the popular musical has enjoyed runs of two seasons in New York, twenty weeks in Chicago and long stays in Boston and Philadelphia. The en- gagement here this week is @ repeat. Constance McKenzie in “Show Boat”—National. GIGLI, TENOR, TO SING HERE NEXT FRIDAY Beniamino Gigli, leading tenor of the Metropolitan Opera Company and generally ranked as the greatest of living Italian tenors, will make his appearance in concert under the management of Mrs. Wilson-Greene at Poli’s Theater on Friday afternoon, February 28, at 4:30 o'clock, as, the fifth concert in the artist’s cou of afternoon concerts at that theater. The voice and personality of Gigli are frequently compared with the voice and personality of the late be- loved Enrico Caruso. While Gigli is sensible of the honor conveyed in such comparisons, he Delieves it is futile to compare one singer’s person- ality and voice with thatjof another, and it is his theory that Caruso will never have a successer, even though today Gigli is ranked as the out- standing operatic tenor before the American public.

Ill- ness in the Homer family makes nec- essary the change and enables Mrs. Wilson-Greene to present an Amer- ican singer whose vogue with concert audiences is one of the most remark- able developments of recent seasons. Richard Crooks is New Jersey-born who made his first “‘hit’” on a pro- gram with Schumann-Heink at a music festiva}) before 14,000 persons. Enlisting’ in the Army, he came out of the service robust of physique and with an improved voice, winning an important church position in New York which brought him to the at- tention of ‘Walter’ Damrosch, then conductor of the New York Sym- phony. He made no less than nine appearances with the New York Sym- phony as soloist and his concert ca- reer dates from the sensation h created on those appearances. Charles Winninger, Capt.

SOCIETY PLANS WELCOME FOR SCHOOL BAND The National High School Orchestra from the National High School Or- chestra and Band Camp at Inter- lochen, Mich., an ensemble of nearly 125 boy and girl musicians from 43 States, makes its bow at Constitution Hall on Saturday evening, March 1, at 8:30 o’clock.. The concert is under the local management of Mrs. Wilson- Greene. Senator A. H, Vandenberg, of Mich- igan, ahd Mrs. Vandenberg, whose daughter, Elizabeth, will appear as the Piano soloist with the orchestra, is so- cially sponsoring this, the first Wash- ington appearance of the National High School Orchestra. The entire or- chestra section of Constitution Hall as well as all boxes have been withdrawn from public sale,in order to accom- mogate a large and distinguished gathering. Prof. Joseph E. Maddy, organizer and musical director of the National High School Orchestra and Band Camp at Interlochen, Mich., will con- duct the Washington concert, which is one of three concerts the orchestra will give during a short tour of the East in connection with their appear- ance before the department of super- intendence of the National Educa- tional Association in convention at Atlantic City late this month. The orchestra will play in New York and Philadelphia prior to the Wash- ington concert. Famous conductors like Walter Damrosch and Frederick Stock have declared the National High School Orchestra, none of the mem- bers of which is over 20 years old, has attained the proficiency of many pro- fessional symphony orchestras. Three Washington high school mu- sicians will participate in Saturday evening’s concert. They are Minnie Clipker, 16-year-old violinist and a recent graduate of McKinley Manual Training School; Charles Cook, bass violist, and Martin Emerson, trom- bonist, the last two from Central High School. All members of the orchestra represent the cream of mu- sica] talent in their respective high schools, and some idea of their pro- ficiency may be gained from the fact that their program for the Washing- ton concert will include Tschaikow- sky’s “Pathetique” Symphony, Grieg’s Concerto in A Minor and Ernest Bloch’s epic symphony, “America.” DOUBLE BILL. AT BELASCO A double bill will be the feature of the Junior Theater’s presentation on Saturday, March 1, at the Belasco. “Penrod,” by Booth Tarkington, will be played at the matinee, and “The A. A.

For Penrod, the cast will include Charles Bateson 3, and Preston Daw- son in the roles of Penrod and Sam, and other members of ‘the Junior Theater company ably cast in this mirth-provoking comedy.

Symphony at its next concert, was announced a week ago by President Frost. Mrs. Howe, who is at present Havana, Cuba, is not only an en- thusiastic Washington music lover, but under the name of Mary Howe is a composer of distinction. Mr. Kind- ler himself had considerable to co with the selection of Mrs. Howe's number, as the American work which the National Symphony is pledged to give whenever possible, for “Poema Romanesca” is well known to concert musicians who follow symphonic de- velopments in the United States. The number was first played by Barrere’s Little Symphony in New York City. It ‘was then in chamber orchestra form and it was afterward scored for full orchestra in which form it was presented by the New York Symphony Orchestra. Mr. Kindler is. due to arrive in Washington on Thursday, March 6. in order to conduct a series of re- hearsals at Musicians’ Hall for the 'second concert.

It will be presented by the St. Mary’s Players, a troupe of thespians that has scored dramatic success many times in Washington. Last.year they played to packed houses in Keith's, with another plya, “The Curate.” Only Flo Ziegfeld himself and his “Show Boat” prevented a second per- SOCIETY LIFE SEEN IN PLAY BY BARONESS Miss Ethel Barrymore will be seen in Lili Hatvany’s modern drama, “The Love Duel,” adapted by Zoe Akins, in Poll’s Theater, for one. week only, be- ginning tomorrow, Monday. night, with matinees on Thursday and Sat- urday. “The Love Duel” is sophisticated and cynical, giving the actress a role in great contrast to that she acted in Sierra's “The Kingdom of God,” which she played here last winter. Baroness Hatvany has taken her characters and her story from the lives of two people prominent in European social circles. As her theme is that hatred is the real root of love, the baroness introduces the glamorous Lydia. who has loved many times, but never seriously, and the philandering Carlo, whose con- quests have made Lydia despise him. Carlo challenges Lydia to a duel of hearts, a game between experts, with no quarter shown nor asked, and vic- tory to the stronger. This piquant situation is handled as only a conti- nental writer can treat such a theme. Zoe Akins, who made the American version of “The Love Duel,” here. Baroness Hatvany has had many plays produced in Europe, but “The Love Duel” introduces her to Ameri- can audiences. Since her debut at the age of 14, Miss Barrymore has acted many parts in plays by such diverse authors as Shakespeare, Sheridan, Pinero, Ibsen, Somerset Maugham, James M. Barrie, Clyde Fitch, Galsworthy and Dumas. Her ambitioys repertory plans include a Greek tragedy, a Shakespearean com- edy and revivals of dramas in which she already has appeared, as well as new plays, among which will be Dan- jel A. Reed's dramatization of Julia Peterkin's “Scarlet Sister Mary,” to be presented in New York next fall. Louis Calhern is leading man for the actress. The cast of “The Love Duel” includes Mary Loane, William Ker- shaw, Harry Plimmer, Anita Rothe, Eleanor Stuart, Gertrude Maitland, James Meighan, Malcolm Soltan, Mar- cel Dill and Joan Carvel. Miss Barry- more directed the production. Edward A. McHugh Is stage manager. Watson Barratt designed the settings for the three acts.

COMES. BACK TO NATIONAL | “Show Boat,” Florenzg Ztegfeld’s. greatest musical play, opens at the National Theater Monday, tomorrow, night. The story is founded on Edna Ferber’s novel of the same name. On the Cotton Blossom, an old- fashioned show boat, plying up and down the Mississippi, Capt. Andy Hawks, ite proprietor, lives and moves and has his being. With him are Parthy Ann, his straight-laced Massa- chusetts wife, and his daughter Mag- nolia, and the troup which presents the show boat plays. Gaylord Ravenal, - young aristocrat, gambler and some- what of an outcast, coming to the show boat one day, sees Magnolia and falls in love with her, as she does with him, an affair which she has tried to keep secret from her. lynx- eyed mother, Parthy Ann. The sud- den tragic departure of the leading lady and, the leading man com- pels Capt. Andy to let Magnolia step into the leading lady's. shoes and to give Ravena) a trial as leading man. This brings the young lovers’ together much more; they have to move with great caution, for they &re watched with cat-like closeness by % disapproving Parthy Ann. Capt. Andy, however, is all on their side, and finally, when Parthy is off on a little trip for a morning, he gives Magnolia and Ravenal a rip-snorting wedding and send-off. A few years go by. Magnolia end Ravenal aré living in Chicago. Their little daughter, Kim, is in a convent school. Ravenal, again a gentleman gambler, has fallen on evil days and in his unhappiness and remorse runs away, leaving Magnolia to fight her battle alone. With the help of Prank and Elly, two of the old show boat troup—now a vaudevile team—Mag- nolia gets a chance to appear in the New Year's Eve show put on in the Trocadero Restaurant. Capt. Andy is at this show. His proud encourage- ment gives Magnolia such confidence that she makes a great hit and is launched on a career which enables her to retain her pride and support herself and her little daughter, Kim. Some more years roll by. Kim is now a shining star in New York's musical comedy firmament—more was. Capt. Andy and Parthy Ann still running the show boat, vi still and more prosperous than ever. After all this interval, Ravena] re- turns one day to the new Cotton Blossom. Capt. Andy understands the man and knows that in spite of the years, Ravenal and Magnolia are still hungering for each other; so he wires to Magnolia and Kim to run down and see him. Ravenal, regretful and conscienet- stricken, thinks it would be better, perhaps, for him to drift on and disturb Magnolia again. Capt. Andy persuades him to wait until Magnolia arrives. When Magnolia walks on the Cotton Blossom and says, “Look, Gay—there’s “ng Ravenal jooks at his daughter. years of separation are past. Once more Magnolia and Gay move toward their old rendezvous—the water barrel. To tell more of the story would be unjust to the author. The music is by Jerome Kern, who wrote the scores for “Oh Boy,” “Sally,” “Sunny,” “Leave It to Jane,” “Stepping Stones,” and other successes too numerous mention. Oscar Hammerstein 1, who carries out the plot of “Show Boat” with remarkable appreciation of the humor and pathos, aleo wrote the lyrics.

CHARLINE ESSLEY, songstress, who will be heard at the Fox this week in Fanchon and Marco's latest “idea,” bearing the title of “Gardens.” IT IS A TASK TO IMPROVE A PERFECT WORK It’s easy to make up Noah Beery, but it’s difficult to make up Billie Dove. That's one of the strangest paradoxes the motion picture make- up man could reveal to the public, but actually it isn’t so strange. Says Percy Westmore, head of First Na- tional make-up men: “A make-up man is an artist. An artist might paint a lily on 4 canvas, and a make-up man might make a plain woman beautiful, but the artist can hardly add to the lily itself by his skill, and the make-up man can’t do a thing to add to the beauty of Billie Dove. His only fear is that, when putting on the make-up necéssary for indoor motion picture photogra- phy he will mar the perfection of her beauty, though ever so slightly.” Shadings, Westmore says, aré “out” when making up Billie Dove. Shad- ings are to put in lines or take them out, or in, some way to change the contour of a face. Miss Dove’s make- up is put on perfectly “flat;” that is, it is of uniform color and depth. Moreover, it goes on as lightly, or even more lightly, than the average woman's street make-up. For outdoor scénes the star uses practically none at all. All brightly lighted outdoor scenes are filmed without make-up. Her natural com- | plexion is, thanks to a year-around tan from the sun, a trifie dark to film ‘indoors without make- -up. Miss Dove's latest picture is “Sweethearts and | Wives, " which Clarence Badger is di- |recting. She has not oné, but two | leading men in the film. One of them is Sidney Blackmor, the other Clive | Brook. R.iK.O.

IPPLES on theRADIO WAVE % NEws AND PROGRAMS OF INTEREST TO RADIO ENTHUSIASTS SL eS Se erp sSs-seetttesensnasseenssstnstnate —— - - anal Re a a a Tee: vara! “ HUGHES’ SECTION IT ome STIRS RADIO GROUP Industry Circles Recall His Views on Broadcasting Property Rights. LAW MAY PROVE INVALID By J. D. SECREST. The appointment of Charlies Evans Hughes as Chief Justice Bs the United States Supreme Court, and particu- larly the battle that was waged before his confirmation by the Senate, has ’ minor unrest in radio cir- cles because of views expressed by Mr. Hughes on the question of prop- erty rights of broadcasting stations when he was chief counsel for the General Electric Co. in the WGY case. Should the Supreme Court hold the Same opinion as its Chief Justice on this issue, numerous appeals from aggrieved stations would be forthcom- ming. many present allocations wouid have to be shifted, and the Radio Commission would have to reverse its policy in this regard. Even the va- lidity of the radio law would be seriously endangered. The question is now before tne Supreme Court as the result of an appeal filed by Station WCRW, of Chicago, owned by Clinton R. White, because of a reduction in power from 500 to 100 watts. After receiving an unfdvorable decision in the Northern District Court of Tlinois, counsel for WCRW appealed to the Circuit Court of Appeals. This court, in turn, con- fronted with the property rights question, asked for a ruling from the Supreme Court. As yet the opinion has not been offered. Law Would Be Invalid. The circuit court suggested in its brief that if property rights of the broadcaster are established, the radio law may be invalid in that it de- prives a person of property without the due process of lew and just com- pensation, the only standards for the Radio Commission’s action being “public interest, convenience or neces- sity.” Chief Justice Hughes’ views, at least as a private lawyer, were expressed in the WGY brief as follows: ‘Priority of time as against any subsequent station gives to the General Electric Co. superiority of right. The Gen- eral Electric Co. hes a property right to be free from interference caused by subsequently established stations.” Speaking of this opinion, Senator Cc. C. Dill, of Washington, one of the bitterest opponents to the appoint- ment and one of the leaders in radio * legislation in Congress, said: Views of Senator Dill. “This is nothing more or less than the doctrine of squatter sovereignty It is nothing more of a men who goes out and discovers a gold mine and says, “It belongs to me against all comers.” It is nothing more or less than the doctrine of a man who takes some water out of the river and then ciaims the right to use forever the water from the river. “Luckily, up to the present time, no court has ever held that there can be private ownership of a wave length, and I do not believe that a court ever will so hold; but I am so jealous of the rights of future gen- erations in the use of radio and what it will become, that I am unwilling to take the chance of allowing a man of the great ability of Charles Evans Hughes to pass upon that question in.the light of the document he has written on the constitutional con- struction of the subject.” Senator Wheeler, of Montana, speak- | ing of the same question, said: “If the Supreme Court should decide that there was a vested right in radio broadcasting, it would mean that the power interests of this country com- bined would own 40 of the 45 cleared channels in the United States.” Singers of Note On Victor Program Orchestra of 65 Pieces Will Assist in Operatic Renditions. Two singers of international fame. | supported by a symphony orchestra | of 65 pieces, will be heard during the | hour of music to be broadcast in a Victor hour through WRC Thursday | evening. Marguerite D’Alvarez, con- tralto, and Armand Tokayan, tenor, will sing from “Carmen” and “Sam- | s0n and Delilah.” and the orchestra | vnder the direction of Nathan.el Shilkret, will play the music of Deli- bés’ ballet, “Coppelia.” and George Gershwin's suite, “An American in Paris.” The operatic. portions will be played as fan from the complete scores, with Mme. D’Al- varez and Mr. Tokayan singing cer- tain of the arias and duets. Marguerite D'Alvarez, contralto who was first heard here at the Par- American Union, comes from the an- cient Inca city of Cuzco, Peru. Her debut was made in Europe and she has since sung in the leading opera houses of the world. An artist cf strong personality, Mme. D’Alvarez has become a great favorite with American audiences.

HEINL HIS is to notify you that you have been appointed national director of broadcasting in charge of programs. Congratula- tions upon your appointment. It's a big job! Now tell us, by return mail, as briefly as possible, just how you are going to handle it! Do the programs over the radio suit you as they are? If not, what changes would you propose? Letters may be addressed to the Radio Editor, Washington Post, if possible confined to 50 words, and written on one side of the sheet only. Typewritten letters would be especially welcome. Indi- cate whethgr or not you desire your name used and your wishes will be respected. pokey there {s still room for improvement, Station NAA, operated by the Navy, is handling the concerts broadcast from the Chamber Music Auditorium of the Library of Congress, «better than it used to. This was evident from the way the Stradivarius string quartet con- cert was broadcast Monday afternoon. The announcing was very creditably done by Edward H. Preston, of the Library music division, son of James D. Preston, superintend- ent of the Senate press gallery. His work was a great improvement over that of the announcers in the earlier broadcasts, A suggestion, however, is that young Mr. Preston be allowed to break in with an announcement after each number or more fre- quently than he did last Monday afternoon. The first group ran for 35 minutes without an announcement and any one tuning in during that time would not have known what was being broadcast. ALTER DAMROSCH’S reading of letters, expressing conflicting opinions regarding the Ravel “Bolero,” has aroused our curi- osity to the highest degree. It was our misfortune—or fortune, as the case may be—to hear only the closing measures of this much- discussed composition, broadcast by Mr. Damrosch’s orchestra for the first time two weeks ago, and we are hoping, for a repetition of this number, described by a friend as “the inverted passacaglia.” * * + * PROPOS of the proposed changes in the assignment of a num- A ber of high-powered stations on cleared channels, Capt. Guy Hill, acting chief engineer of the Radio Commission, who is chiefly responsible for the reallocation plan, has revealed some interesting mathematical calculations. While one would imagine on first thought that fourteen stations and fourteen cleared channels could be shifted in only (14x14) 196 different positions, Capt. Hill, an expert mathematician, said that they can be assigned 87,178,491,200 different ways. “And we've tried all of ’em but sevem,” he added. UILTY, - * . . as he described it, of making one of the first political G speeches over the radio, Senator David A. Reed, of Pennsyl- vyania, one of the naval parley delegates, recalled the event when ‘he broadcast from England to the United States. “I was then impressed because my voice was heard 60 miles from Station KDKA, in Pittsburgh,” Senator Reed continued. ‘‘That was only eight years ago. Yet today as I speak here in London, my voice is being heard in New York, Kansas City and even San Francisco.” . * * + GAIN showing the heroic aid a radio station can render in a A disaster was the raising of more than $17,000 in a week of Sta- tfon WLS, Chicago, for the Illinois-Indiana flood relief. “In receiving this fund,” James B. Forgan, jr., of the Chicago Red | Cross Chapter, said to Edgar L. Bill, director of the station, “I wish | to assure you of the great service you have rendered to suffering | humanity, and I am sure it will be gratifying to you to know that | your station has raised more than one-third of the total fund to | date for this relief operation.” * J.

On the stone over his grave is carved ‘“‘Requiem” which he himself wrote, and which is considered one of the finest things of its kind ever written, The| poem made up a part of the program of the American School of the | Air-over WMAL last week and follows; ‘Under the wide and starry sky Dig the grave and let me lie. Gladly did I live and gladly die, And I lay me down with a will. These be the words that ye grave for me: Here he lies where he longed to be. Home is the hunter, home from the hill, And the sailor home from the sea.” . 7 LAYED by Miss Zenaide Hanenfeldt, apparently only by raising Pp or lowering her hands above it, Washington has heard for the first time a mysterious instrument, a by-product of radio, known as as a theremin, the invention of a young Russian of the same name. It has no keyboard, string, reeds or other mechanical aids for manipulation. speaker. One antenna, a straight, or pitch. The other antenna, a volume, or intensity of sound. When the human hand js brought into the sensitive electrical field surrounding the vertical antenna, the field is so affected that audio- frequency notes, or sounds, are produced. As the hand approaches the vertical antenna, the pitch of the sounds becomes higher; as the hand is withdrawn, the pitch becomes lower. When the hand approaches the horizontal, volume is lessened, down to the faintest whisper; moved away the volume is increased. When Miss Hanenfeldt played it in Washington she was accom- panied by a piano. However, when we heard it played by Theremin, perpendicular bar, controls tone looped, horizontal bar, controls looped antenna the when the hand is VOICE OF THE RADIO FAN Sets Favorites Slipping.

M. ‘Seth Parker’ in Real Life, Is Genuine ‘Down-Easter’ By BERTHA E. CHANDLER. Those of you who look forward each Sunday night to the advent of Seth Parker on the air are really hearing Phillips H.* Lord, wh»se grandfather was a sea captain of Ells- worth, Me. many of his summers there, following the old gentleman adoringly about listening for hours to droll stories told in his inimitable Yankee drawl. Probably the old gentleman, * who lived to be 90, would be as much surprised as any one if he could hear Seth Parker telling his own stories and funny anecdotes while his words of wisdom still go marching on. Many incidents in the Seth Parker | Sketches have been taken literally from experiences related by him to the young lad whose retentive mem- ory stored them away for future use. After graduating from Bowdoin College in 1925, he went to work in an Office in New York, but when night came, he entered a world of imagery all his own. Two years ago he became greatly dissatisfied with the popular conception of rural life on the stage, screen and radio, in books and magazine stories, and de- termined to write what he considered a true portrayal of country folk who have just as many, if not more, real sterling characteristics than more polished city brothers. “I remembered,” Mr. Lord says, rough, boisterous, even profane, but with a heart as big as the ocean. He was always first to volunteer when any hard or dangerous duty was re- quired; first to dig down into his | |purse when contributions were need- | ‘ed, and I knew many a story of his | | sacrifices and heroism. “I remembered aq gentle old dea- | con who was forever doing a kind- ness on the sly and felt it a failure if ‘t’other party’ found him out. “I remembered Uncle Amos, who lost his season’s hay because he be- lieved it was wrong to work on Sun- day and stuck unflinchingly by his | principle. “I remembered the lonely woman, ‘whose cottage I used to pass on the i way to Brunswick.

He was finally allowed to. unteer actors to continue away their time. Almost at once Mr. Lord, who never gives up,. began to write short stories of village life with the old-fashioned singing school for a background. Here he introduced Seth Parker as the principal character, not because he was a real person but because he seemed to comprise all the charactter- istics which he desired in his hero. He tells us the name is purely fictitious as are all the others who appear in Seth Parker's singing school, but they have many attributes of the real peo- ple he wishes to portray. The Hartford station was the first to try out the singing school and it won unforeseen popularity almost overnight. Other stations began to bid for it and soon Mr. Lord was obliged, without much regret, to re- sign his office position and spend his entire time in creating new experi- ences for Seth. Every Tuesday night at 9:30 o’clock from Hartford, Seth Parker's Old- Fashioned Singing School offers a treat in old-time songs. For more than fifteen months the same cast has remained intact. Paul Lucas takes the part of Seth, while Dorothy Baldwin McCray, daughter of Ralph |L.

CONGESTION Is FEARED eee The use of radio by police in the apprehension of criminals threatens to develop beyond the ability of the Radio Commision to accommodate applicants, at least under the present set-up of frequencies. So far only ‘about 25 of the larger cities of the | | country are using, or have applied for | permits to use, radio in crime detec- tion but, according to Lieut. Kenneth Cox. of the .Chicago police, more than 55 cities are likely to want | police radio services soon. This prediction was made last week at a conference of police representa- tives and the commissioners at which the former asked that provision be made for an adequate number of fre- quencies in the mobile continental short-wave band for such use. Wash- ington is considering installation of such service in the near future. It was said that advantages of police radio already haye been proven, but that use of makeshift equipment jand “doubling up” of stations on the ‘same channel in cities near each other is leading to a condition that will warrant correction.

E. K. Jett, short wave engi- |neer of the commission, pointed out that there are only a few frequencies 'in the mobile band between 1, and 3.000 kilocycles available for such | services. In all, he said, there are ‘only 25 and of these only 3 are 'now provided for police service. Even | the entire 25 would not be sufficient | for 55 cities, he added. Phone Messages By Radio Secret If Listened To They May Not Be Divulged Under Heavy Penalty. | A warning to radio amateurs not : to divulge the contents or purport of | any radiotelephone messages they may listen to under penalty of 1o0s- ‘ing their licenses and being subject | to heavy fines was issued by William 'D Terrell, chief of the radio division ‘of the Department of Commerce, fol- lowing the publication of comments on conversations between persons in this country and others aboard the Leviathan. Section 27 of the radio act of 1927, |Mr Terrell pointed out, states: “No | person receiving Or assisting im re- ceiving any radio communication shall divulge or publish the contents, substance, purport or effect, or meaa- ‘ing thereof except through authorized channels of transmission or reception to any person other than the ad- dressee or his agent.” The fine for the offense is not more than 8500. “This section jus* as surely applies to radiotelephone messages as to the strictly radig communication,” Mr. Terrell said. “We will certainly prosecute any offenders whose viola- tions of this act are brought to our attention.” ———________._______ PACKARD OPPORTUNITY WEEK Twenty-two selected cars specially priced for this event offer you the best opportun- ity to buy used Packards and other good cars at lowest prices and terms.

In many cases this shaft which has been somewhat overworked in recent years is chrom- jum-plated. One of the finest Amer- ican Cars uses stainless steel] for it. Incidentally, this material is finding constantly wider application through- out the entire car, especially in ex- terior parts which are constantly ex- posed to the weather. Undoubtedly one of the most signif- cant trends to be found in-the 1930 models is that toward the four-speed transmission.

Americans Pay Tribute : ’ To German Car Pioneer Wilhelm Maybach Recognized as Having Contributed Vastly to Development of Automobile, Bringing His Country to Forefront. The recent death ‘in his eighty- fourth year of Wilhelm Maybach, “the last of Germany’s great trio of automobile pioneers,” evoked many tributes from American automotive engineers and observers, who recog- nized in him a man who had con- | tributed tremendously to the present development of the motor vehicle. With Daimler and Benz, Maybach, it is pointed out, brought Germany to the forefront of the early progress of automotive transportation, blazing new trails in many important direc- tions. “When Maybach began ¢he develop- ment of light, liquid fuel engines and |motor vehicles, in the early 80s, he had a background of ripe engineer- ing experience for, from 1872 to 1882 he had been chief engineer of the Deutz Gas Engine Works, manufac- turers of the Otto engine, and then the foremost firm in its branch,” says P. M. Heldt, in a sketch of Maybach’'s career in Automotive Industries. “At Deutz Maybach was associated _ with Gottlieb Daimler, who had pro- | posed the development of motor road | vehicles to the ‘heads of the firm but / had received no encouragement, and |when Maybach resigned in 1882 he | joined Daimler , Wuertemberg, to undertake such de- vetopment. at Cannstatt, in Ranked High As Engineer. “In the popular mind Maybach did not figure as prominently in the early _history of the automobile as dia either Daimler or Benz, which is _ probably due to the fact that he did not work independently and organize his own company, but filled the posi- tion of technical director of the Daimler Motor Co. As an engineer, however, he undoubtedly ranked first among the trio. His crowning achieve- ment in automobile development was the production of the Mercedes car in 1900, which was an instant suc- cess and which for many years ranked as the world’s finest automobile. “Daimler was primarily a pioneer, an inventor, while Maybach was more of an engineer and a production man. The Daimler Motor Co. during the early stages of its career seems to have been handicapped by the lack of a capable commercial executive. This appears to have been one of the chief reasons why some of the French licensees under the. Daimler patents, notably Panhard & Levassor, greatly outstripped the German firm. “In 1899 Daimler and Maybach were joined by an Austrian business man, Herr Jellineck, one of the early automobile enthusiasts, whose at- tention had been drawn to them in the first place by learning, while in | were others, which were known in other Paris, that Panhard then obtained his engines from Daimler. Jellineck secured an exclusive sales agency for Daimler cars for a period of five years, and at once became a dominant factor in the conduct of the business. “The Mercedes car, named after Mercedes Jellineck, oldest daughter of the sales agent, which appeared during 1900, embodied for the first time in automobile practice many features that later became quite - common. iets “It was the first car to have pressed steel frame, drop-forged, I-section axles (chain drive), .Mer- cedes or reversed-Elliott-type steering heads, mechanically-operated iniet valves (in previous engines these valves . were suction-operated), a cellular radiator, an engine flywheel with fan-spokes, a selective sliding gear transmission, and internal in- closed brakes. Of these features some invented by Maybach while lines of engineering, were introduced by him in automobile practice. May- bach also claimed the invention of hot-tube ignition and of the constant level, spraying carburetor. Had Eye on Rich Clientele, — . “Jellimeck had an eye on the rich clfentele that flocked to the season resorts, which at that time loomed large among automobile prospects, and the Mercedes made its debut»at Nice, where motor sports customarily inaugurated the season at that time. It made a clean sweep of the meet, winning all three of the principal events, the touring contest, the La Turbie hill climb and the flying Kilometer speed trial on the Boule- vard des Anglais. “That it should beat the previously invincible Panhards was something entirely unexpected and created a sensation. Its reputation was made. French engineers who examined. it were particularly struck by the nar- row-faced transmission gears, which seemed to be entirely too small for the 40 horsepower of the engine, , These proved to be made of Krupp chrome-nickel steel, heat-treated, of more than twice the strength ,of ‘the carbon steel previously used, and were found to be quite adequate. “Daimler died in 1900, and during a reorganization some years Iater Maybach resigned from the firm drid organized the Maybach Motor Manu- facturing Co. of Friedrichshafen, which has become famous as builder of Zeppelin engines. At the present time the Maybach firm is a subsidi- ary of the Zeppelin Airship Construc- tion Co. It also manufactures auto- mobiles and marine engines, com- plete automobiles and railcar engines - a of the Diesel type. “Maybach designs always borne a touch of originality. have In the Continued on Page 7, Column 1.

. American People Are Seen Awakened to Fast Driving in Motor Cars. ENCOURAGED BY LAWS Never before have the Américan \ ‘people been so thoroughly convinced as at the present time t now we are really approaching an-era of Ag & Nation, to of the type ra as symbolized in swift, undelayed trans- portation for either freight or pas- sengers—the quick movement of commercial or personal vehicles to distant pointe. These points are made by automo- “ tive"@bservers who add that “therein lies our prediction that we will have mfithr! higher 6 on our national highways within the next few years than heretofore has been possibile. “It ‘has not been #0 many years ago,’4t is shown, “that State statute books restrained the speed of auto- mobiles and other vehicles to 25 and éven- 15 miles an hour in certain ateas. Three or four years ago the majority of towns and cities posted notices of 15 miles an hour speed limits with strong ishment meted out .to offenders. érally speaking, we'tiow Rave two municipal speed limiite—-25 and 15 miles an” hour in residence and business districts re- spectively. Some cities have seen fit to even raise this limit with no ap- preciabie increase in fatalities. Yes, it is even quite possible that we may shortly have uniformity of municipal speed regulations of 35 and 25 re- spectively. ‘This will come only with the evelopment and ng 0 the present congestion and muddied traffie control found in our principal cities? But we do not believe we will inefease the speed of motor car traf- fic-within our larger cities to what will--eventually be normal speed on country roads, Travel Fasterf on Main Roads. “The greatest progress made in quick transportation is found in our main- roads between villages, towns an@'cities. And it is in this partic- ular that the rate of travel in the future, we believe, will be materially inctedsed. “The State of Michigan some time ago removed its speed limit. A more effective control of apprehending and punishing drivers guilty of reckless driying was devised. Yet this State has shown no increase in traffic fa- talities due entirely to speed. Other States either havé taken similar ac- tion. or are considering such a step. In angst places the results have been much faster transportation between cities, particularly those far apart. We are'still far from the ultimate in fast, long-tistance travel. “Much time has been wasted and corsiderable confusion has resulted from “huhdreds of independent inves- tigations, trials and tests conducted by the v# ious States and cities to deter- mine -the proper rate of thoroughfare trayel, True, individual communities and conditions are not alike and ever chatiging. Yet this lack of uniformity in cqntrol of traffie and the many tratie rules and restrictiong is not only enrbarrassing; but often tedious, to those thousands of motorists who are constantly oh the road for busi- ness or pleasure reasons, “Wee we to suggest a single traffic aid for improved road travel and con- trol it would be the introduction of superhighways without the wusval large numbe? of surface Crossroads and railway crossings. This system of highways would, of course, boulevarded, for every community has experienced the accident toll -of high- ways with traffic moving in both di- rections, Superhighways Only Starting. “But boulevarded superhighways are only the beginning. her things must be done to relieve the present traffic congestion and the slow time on long runs. We would eliminate the _ surface crossings at every mile post on such highways. Instead, paral- leled approaches at regular and great- er intervals would gradually permit occasional driver to enter the fast- ving stream of long-distance travel- ers. These main arteries would eithar dip under or pass over all railway crossings. The intersections of super- highways would be cared for by peas- ing one Over or under the other, and similar types of gradual parallel ap- proaches would permit a change of direction for drivers on either main roadway. Where local traffic control is necessary tfaffie lights would be so grouped as to provide no interruption for motorists driving at 60 and 60 miles an hour or even faster on these through arteries. “Provably the most serious deter- rent to an organized increase in speed rates is the possibility of hrtman er- ror or lack of proper judgment ip a traffic emergency. Thfs is one hazard that will always persist. Automobiles may be made faol-proof in their r- ation and safe in théir control. Pye- cautions of every sort may be taken to give the driver every possible ad- vantage in stopping, steering or start- ing. Yet that driver must remain master of both his own destiny and that of others. He will probably al- ways make the gpproaching driver or the one in the cars “guess what he’s going to da next.” And there appears to be no immediate solution to this problem except to apply a common yardstick to traffic regulations and then broadcast in every possible way a complete educational program tha will make évery driver conscious of the things he is posed to do and those that are prohibited. “Bearing all these suggestions in mind, it does not seem unreasonable to us that long trips wil be easily and comfortably. made within the near future at speeds of 50, 60 and even 75 miles an hour with the prop- er precautions hav béen taken to safety and eanely d t this high- speed traffic Over long distances,” TRIBUTE RENDERED GERMAN CAR PIONEER Continued from Page 6, automobile enging, for instance, the pean block is, almost complete! m case, Which gives a “clean” exter d has mechanical advantages as The Diesel — is probably multicylinder, , oll-burni well, car was turned out, with a two-speed Planetary transmission, and quite re- cently a twelve-cylinder model .on lines was announced.

By FRANK J. CARMODY. have to decline as sharply as have aerial passenger rates in order to stimulate public patronaze? Observers of the resulte of passen- ger fare reductions are asking this question quite frequently today. They aré asking it especially in connection with prices of planes to be be put into hands of the pleasure fj} and sport r, the individual owner. The answer one gets to the query in most authoritative cireles is qual- ifiediy affirmative. One gathers that ~aeTonautic leaders generally have come to the conclusion that aviation costs more than the public is willing or able to pay. The undoubted effect of this will be lower prices, but just how low and when the. reductions will be made is a subject which finds ali prophets wary. Some reductions are being made now in the prices of planes intended for private buyers. ey have not, however, brought the cost of a plane to the level that many believe will assure quantity selling. As evidence of this, it is pointed out that a re- cent $700 cut in the price of one of the fastest selling new production planes has left it retailing at $3,200. Lopping $1,000 from the. price of an- other craft designed for a similar market has brought it. down to only $3,985. In still a third case a re- duction of more than $500 places the product in the $4,000 price class. Figures Are High. In pefcentages these figures are fairly high. Yet they are not go great as those which saw nike’ rates tumble as much ag per cent in some cases. One of the keenest critics of avia- tion’s economic progress gave the writer an unforgettably significant answer to the question of where pri must go before quantity buy- ing will be an actuality. When the question was asked the executive rose from hie chair and watked over to the window of his office which over- lookéd A stréet lined with parked au- tomobiles. “There is looking far and a your answer, if you are enough igto the future use quantity buying in the gen- nse,” he femarked pointing to the "string of cars paaked below. chew — =. those cers cost less the highest price fekKi which their yerage man has less to put into hfs private tra tion, it is obvious that airplane manu- facturers hardly can hope to make the phrase ‘quantity Nae mean anye thing like it means to the motor car manufacturer.

' Seen as Insuring Quality In Training of Airplane ~ Students. = The question of Government rating of fiying schools having been settled, that of rating schools for airplane mechanics now has been raised here.

Under the air commerce act as it’ stands, the Department of Commerce is powerless to do anything about the mechanics school. It has no authority to Inspect the an institution nor” facilities of such to supervise its courses nor establish. a standard for instruction as it has in the case of the school which teach-. es piloting. Modification of the law .- will be necessary before such authori- | ty is available. os At present the best help the Gov- ernment can give is that provided ‘by the Federal Board for Vocational Ed- ucation. This agency has supplied schools with suggested rules and methods for conducting sound train- ing, but it is powerless to enforce adoption of its suggestions, The problem is admittedly one of . considerable importance, since avie- tion’s need for trained mechanical help is a great and constantly grow- expected to receive considerable at- tention during the next few months, system such as tnat now employed for fiying schools will be adopted. No-Parking Rule Based Exasperated motorista sometimes think that the only reason for the “no parking” signs in front of large buildings is to provide parking space for the more influential occupants of such structures. The real reason for such signs, how- ever, is to permit the easier exit of building occupants in case of fire and at the same time closer work by fire apparatus.

Nazareth derives a part of Its picturesqueness from narrow and winding streets, which are none too sanitary, and from houses whose simple style of architec- ture goes back to the time of the Holy Family. This type of house consists of one large room, its walls built of rough, gray stone and its domed roof covered with a hard clay mortar, and reached by an oufside stairway. The frinci- pal featur? of the one-room. interior is a masonry platform. Supported by stone arches, it rises eight to ten feet above the ground, and access is had by a narrow, steep flight of stone steps. This elevated platform is par- lor, bedroom and kitchen. The fam- ily occupies it when indoors during the day and, except in summer, when the heat drives them to the roof, they sleep here at night, while the rest of the household, consisting of “Bheep, goats, donkeys, dogs and chickens, oc+ “eupy the space beneath.

And yet I say unto you, that even Solo- mon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.” -He would’ see fishermen getting fish as in His day from the Sea of Galilee: “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind, which when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away.” And He would see the plowman using the same primitive; implement of His time, one hand’ wielding 4 goad and the other handled plow: “And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is not for the kingdom of God.” Still familiar to Jesus would be the hills about Nazareth and much of the land. that He traveled. Except for the flight into Egypt the life of Jesus as recorded in the New Tésta- ment was limited to a district not much larger than that which an urban American considers suburban. After infancy Jesus never went further from Nazareth than a New Yorker would go if he confined his travels in the area between Trenton and New Haven or a Londoner who limited:,his journeys to places no more distant. than Southampton on one side and Ipswich on the other.

In pthers, one that makes acid is more suitable. The minerals’ which are most liable to be deficient in diets are calcium, iron, and orus. The daily re- quirement of calcium, or lime is about grams. It is held that growing children are especially liable to need more calcium than the daily diet sup- plies. This is the basis for the recom- mendation that children should drink more milk.

EVANS It is in the winter season that we should give special attention to vita- mins, since nature provides@them lav- ishly at other seasons. One of the es- sential vitamins, the supply of which tends to run low in winter, is that which is commonly known as D. It is especially needed by growing chil- dren to protect them against rickets. The only need adults have for it is to build up their resistance to disease. The market is now supplied with radiated foods rich in this principle. It is also present in cod liver oil and in milk fats and some other food fats. To get through the winter men, women and children need foods which are rich in the antiscorbutic vitamin C. Among such foods are orange, lemons, bananas and tomatoes. Fresh vegetables generally are rich in antiscorbutic principle. Improve- ments in refrigeration and transpor- tation have decreased the danger of sOurvy. It is fair to say that rail- roads, steamships and cold storage have done more than health depart- ments and doctors to rid society of scurvy. While our people do not have developed beriberi, they do suffer Many aches and pains and bowel dis- turbances which are minor results of the same causes. The vitamin which protects against these is B. It fis found in vegetables, fruite and whole cerea To protect against pellagra we need the vitamins found in yeast, lean meats, salmon and certain vegetables. The fat soluble princip'e which is of most service in promoting growth is that found in milk, cheese, milk fats and in most oils. The principle which. promotes child bearing and ~ health and. vigor of young babies is found in sprouting grain, in vegetables .

Emotional instability will be brought about by the astrological in- fluences for this date, and there will be too much méntal turmoil to re- ceive much benefit from the “day of rest’—ite spiritual lessone or social pleasures. Children born on this February 23 i will have a wonderful sense of logic and reason, and they would make a success of the study of law. They will be good mixers. sociably inclined and not in the least timid. You are avery ambitious person, but, unfortunately, you can not aspire without being discontented. You want to “arrive” without taking the necés- sary steps. You want fame without the work. If your lot is an unhappy one, you bemoan the fact instead of using the energy you need to get out of it. You envy others for ‘hings | which you could attain if you would pay the price in effort, and if you would be willing to sacrifice; but you want to keep your cake and eat it, too. It is true that you have a brilliant mind, but you are not making the most of it. You are not a fighting man or woman. A successful person is one who “knows what he fights for and loves what he knows.” You are more worried about being “somebody” than in doing “something.” As yet you can feel no special calling for any particular line of endeavor. You are probably more interested In what you received than in what you put into your job. Your attitude toward so many-.things is purely a selfish one, although you probably do not realize he fact. You take a superficial interest in a great many things, but you could not be called well informed, as you are not observant enough to be accurate. In all probability you will “wake up” and make the latter half of your life the better and more worthy time of your existence.

Ordinarily, gain or loss regult- ing from the sale of property acquired by purchase after February 26, 1913— the first income tax law applying to individuals became effective March 1, 1913—-is the difference between the cost and the selling price. The gain is income for the year in which re- celved and can not be prorated through a number of years. For ex- ample, a taxpayer bought in 1926 a piece of real estate for $5,000, which he sold in 1929 for $7,000. The $2,000 profit is taxable income for the year Profit accrued on individual income | before March 1, 1913, is not taxable, even though it was not realized until after that date. The reason is that the constitutional amendment au- thorizing Congress to tax the income of individuals did not become effective until March 1, 1913. The revenue act provides that the basis for determining the gain or loss from the sale or other disposition of property acquired by purchase before March 1, 1913, shall be-the cost of such property or the fair market value as of March 1, 1913, whichever is greater. For example, a taxpayer bought in 1910 property for which he paid $10,000. The value on March l, 1913, was $12,000. He sold it in 1929 for $14,000. The March 1, 1913, value being greater than the cost of the property, the taxable gain is figured on that basis, and amounts to $2,000. A taxpayer bought in 1910 property for which he paid $5,000. Its value on March 1, 1913, was $5,500, and in 1929 he sold it for $4,000. In this example the taxpayer bases his loss on the March 1, 1913, value, which was greater than the cost, and the dedu- cible loss is $1,500. range gy i 15 p. m., Girl Scout Troop No. 60; aircraft.

~ The Washington Post WASHINGTON: SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1930. ’ SQUADRON of “Army Air A Corps planes arrives for an airport dedication or some other function. As they are lined up for inspection, and as they fly above the crowds, one notices cer- tain designs on their sleek flanks; ‘designs which may excite interest, - curiosity, or possibly amusement, but which convey little else to the average onlooker. Nevertheless, it is trite that the symbols which gre carried by Air Corps atreraft have meanings which, in many cases, extend back as far as the history of aviation. During the early part of the World War, aircraft began to as- sume a place of prominence in the plans of high commanders. These planes, then but a few years removed from the purely experi- The elaborate oad significant design adopted by the First Pursuit Group. mental types of aircraft, weré called upon to perform duties al- most beyond their capacities. Friend and enemy often met in the clouds, ‘passed and possibly wondered which side the other represented. Thence came the necessity for some sort of identi- fication. -As every one knows, the planes et the Central Powers were deco- rated with the Iron Cross. Also, every one knows that the alles ~ identified their planes with three concentric circles of red, white and blue. The reasons for this were many. Not only was it necessary for pi- lots in the air to know immediate- ly the nationality of an encoun- tered airplane, but missions of cooperating with ground troops required that the infantry and ar- tillery know whether friend or enemy was fiying above them, On the other hand, it was de- sirable that the enemy not be told whether he was opposed by planes -of the French, English, Ameri- cans, Belgians, or others of the allies. Therefore, all insignia which were strictly national were dropped at the front, and all al- lied aircraft carried the same gen- eral identification. This, so i happened, caused some confusion. American troops, who were accustomed to seeing United States planes with the.cir- cle and star with which every one is now familiar, failed to recog- nize their own airmen when they flew across the lines during bat- tle. The result was that Ameri- can planes often could not secure _the full cooperation of the-in- fantry and -artillery in° marking out their positions, and Ameri- can troops sometimes fired on their own planes th ong the same lack of acquain As an upshot of that ad un- The Insignia Appearing on Army Air Corps Planes All Have Real Significance—Many Tell Steries Dating Back to the Inception of Avia- tion—Rules Laid Down by Government Em- brace Many “Do’s” and “Dont’s” —How and Why the Custom of Markings Originated. -By MARSHALL ANDREWS desirable condition, it was recom- mended that aircraft which were assigned to cooperate with ground troops carry on their lower wings the insignia.of the divisions -to which they were assigned. This came so late in the war, however, that few planes ever were made to comply with it. On the other hand, the neces- sity for immediate identification of aircraft by other pilots in the air was apparent almost from the outset. On that basis, squadron, group, and wing designs were adopted very early in the war by organizations on both sides. Not only was it a practical necessity, but it gave play to the instinct for the dramatic which most pilots and all Latins seem to pos- sess. The French, as far as the records show, were the first to adopt such marks of identifica- tion. Yet it was a German who carried the idea to its* fullest range of possibility. Baron Manfried von Richtofen, premier ace of the German flying service, chose to paint his entire plane a brilliant red. His op- ponent could not fail to recognize him in case of an encounter, and The ominous badge of the psychological effect of such knowledge may readily be im- agined. Organizations themselves . profited by the same idea. “Death and Destruction” ought to be plair enough in intent. Possibly the three most famous allied flying organizations were the lLafayetie Escadrille, the “Stork” squadron headed by Capt. Charles Guynemeyer, and _ the *Hat-in-the-Ring” squadron of the American Air Service. The first was known chiefly be- cause it was composed largely of American pilots while the United States was a neutral country. But the other two gained world pub- licity partly because of their deede and partly because of their in- signia. Im fact, it may hardly be doubted that the Ninety-fourth Squadron, United States Air Serv- ice, received most of its public no- tice because of its insignia, depict- ing Uncle Sam’s hat in a ring, announced to all and sundry that the United States was really in the war Many wartime pilots went even so far-as to identify themselves by devices on their planes, as did Richtofen. Capt. Guynemeyer had the words ‘“‘vieux Charles’”’ paint- ed on the side of his Spad. The same idea is carried out even now by some United States Air Corps pilots. Since the war, the insignia of Air Corps units have received of- ficial recognition. An Air Corps order, dated September 19, 1923, authorized Air Corps organiza- designs,” at Do Their Markin§s Mean? tions to submit designs of coats of arms and other insignia for ap- proval. Since then, every Air Corps unit, including those which are organized only on paper, has submitted its design and had it approved. The result is the dis- play of imagination, heraldry and color which one sees at aviation meetings in which the Air Corps participates. In Washington, everyone is fa- miliar with the white Capitol deme in a field of blue inside a circle of broken blue and yellow. This device is the insignia of the Capl- tol Detachment, commanded by Maj. Howard C. Davidson, which is based at Bolling Field. Planes carrying the device have probably made it more generally familiar The Ninth Oicdiveiien Gious utilizes cactus and a rattler to convey the general idea, than any other in the Air Corps, because of the peculiar type of duty which requires their pilots to take them into all corners of the United States and its posses- sions. In the organized Air Corps, there are only four complete tac- tical organizations. These are the First Pursuit Group, at Selfridge Field, Mount Clemens, Mich.; the - Second Bombardment Group at Langley Field, Hampton, Va.; the Third Attack Group, at Fort Crockett, Galveston, Tex.; and the Ninth Observation Group, at Mitchel Field, L. I. Each has its coat of arms, and each coat of arms bears much of significance to - members of the organizations’ which are entitled to them. These coats of arms, es well a3_ the insignia of the individual squadrons, must follow certain rules laid down by the office of- the Chief of Air Corps in its or-. der of September 19, 1923. Un- der this order, such devices must_ conform to the following general regulations: : First of all, they should be of. ‘real value” to the service, s*m- ple, and possess some historical . significance. In the case of new squadrons -the latter provision | may work hardships, but those now in service have had no diffi- culty, most of them having been organized during the World War. Secondly, they. should be digni- fied and in good taste, “Fantastic says the order, “are characteristic and ‘funny, but have no permanent value.” The third requirement is that the de- signs should tell a picture .story significant to the organization. For purely practicable purposes, “they should be distinguish#ble in the air.” . What they should not be is every bit as important. These designs

THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1930. The symbol of the Thirteenth Attack Squadron. may not contain numerals, the let- ters “U. S.,” the Air Corps in- signia, the United States flag, the United States coat of arms or any part of it, the complete arms of any state or country, outlines of geographic maps, foreign decora- tions or campaign ribbons. These rather far-reaching re- quirements have caused some headaches among ‘e artisticaHy inclined among pilots of the Air Corps. On the other hand, they have been helpful at times. For instance, Capt. E. V. Rick- enbacker, who led the famous “Hat-in-the-Ring” (Ninety-fourth) squadron, in France, became an automobile manufacturer after he returned to the United States. He used on his car the design which his squadron had earried in the war and advertised it. Later, when the new Ninety- fourth Squadron began using the old insignia, Mr. Rickenbacker, automobile manufacturer, wanted to know how come? After much correspondence, the famous old insignia was discarded by the squadron, and the. scowling head of an American Indian in full war regalia adopted. The squadron could retire gracefully because of the order against using the “United States flag or any part of it” in their insignia. It was recommended at one time that they use the colors green and black, the original colors of the Air Service, in place of the red, white and blue, but this would, obviously, have destroyed much of the value of the insignia. In the United States Army Air Corps at the present time there are only four theoretically com- plete tactical units. These are: The First Pursuit Group, sta- tioned at Selfridge Field, Mich. This organization consists of the Beventeenth, Twenty-seventh and Ninety-fourth Pursuit Squadrons And the’ Fifty-seventh Service bquadron. The Second Bombardment Group, stationed af Langley Field, Va., consisting.of the Twentieth, Forty-ninth and Ninety-sixth Bombardment Squadrons. and the Fifty-ninth Service Squadron. The Third Attack Group, sta- tioned at Fort Crockett, Galves- ton, Tex., which is soon to be moved to the new Barksdale Field at Shreveport, La. Its or- ganizations are the Eighth. Thir- teenth and WNinetieth Attack Squadrons, and the Sixtieth Serv- ice Squadron. The Ninth Observation Group, stationed at Mitchel Field. L. I., including the First, Fifth and Ninety-ninth Observation Squad- rons, the Sixty-first Service Squadron .and the Fourteenth Photo Section. Each of. these groups has its own coat of arms, somewhat more elaborate than the insignia of the squadréns, and emblazoned with designs of heraldic significance. How well they have carried out the provisions of the order al-. ready quoted may be seen from a description of them. | The coat-of-arms of the First Pursuit Group is, as may well be imagined, one of action and definiteness. Its shield is green, with five diagonal black crosses, representing the five organiza- tions of the group when it was in active service and green and black were the Air Service colors. Under the five stripes are five Iron Crosses in black, represent- ing the five major engagements in which the group participated during the World War. Its crest gives an idea of the mission of the group. There one finds a field of sky blue, repre- senting the high altitudes at which pursuit aviation works. In this fleld, as against the sky, a winged arrow darts downward, as does the pursuit plane in at- tack. And, above all, flies the motto of the group—‘Conquer or Die!” Coming to the Second Bom- bardment Group, one finds a coat-of-arms singularly descrip- tive of the mission of the group and of its history. It is a coat- of-arms which tells its story com- pletely and with rare brevity. The shield is a cloudy blue, surmounted by five ‘‘palets’’ of alternate green and black, repre- senting the five major engage- ments of the group. Upon these palets, in their center, rests a fleur de lys, heralding the organ- ization’s service in France. Down across the cloudy blue sky race four bombs, telling mutely the mission of the group, while the crest, with its jagged lightning across a patch of blue sky ringed in clouds denotes the suddennéss and deadliness with which its weapons strike. The motto of the group—‘‘Death and Destruction’’—leaves little doubt as to its purpose. The Third Attack Group is the baby of the Air Corps. Although its squadrons are old, and all saw service in the World War, the de- velopment of attack aviation is new, and the group, as such, has no war history. One may readily believe, thoughsthat should war unfortunately come upon us again, the attack groups would come out of it with more than enough to ornameat thefr ceats-of-arms with warlike heraldry. There is little of romance, such as the layman likes it, in the mis- sions of observation aviation. Flying lone-handed across the lines, depending upon their own initiative and courage to accom- plish their missions and fight off enemy attacks, the observation ee __&—L=_»_»__L_—_—_—_—_~SSEees There is a bit of laxuinee in this insignia = the Twelfth Per- - suit Squadron. a rarely gets itself inte the papers, and its pilots can never earn for themselves the title “ace.” Yet, as its crest, the coat-of- arms of the Ninth Observation Group carries proud evidence of the fact that one of its squadrena was the first ever to be organized in the United States Army, that it was the first aviation ever to be part of a United States military expedition, and that observation was the first mission for which the Army’s fliers were ever called upon. This crest, a branch of ugly cactus around which a snake is coiled, represents the service of the First Aero Squadron with Pershiwg in Mexico. The story of this service has already been told € s refrain We fail because we timidly We would be strong yet fear to face the test, We choose the easiest path- way, not the best.

Under the crest, the shield_is of green and black, divided by a wavy line representing the Rio Grande, and bearing across its center four iron crosses in black representing service in the Werld War. Its motto is ‘‘Always Ready,” appropriate to the type of flying its planes must do—almost al- ways on the spur of the moment, hardly ever with prearrangement, and usually without knowledge of conditions it must face. These it jearns for its sister branches and for the ground troops. The squadrons themselves, in their eften bizarre insignia, tell to the world their histories and their aims. One of the most vivid of these is the mowing skeleton of the Thirteenth Attack Squad- ron. This skeleton is white against a dark background. He is strid- ing rapidly forward, mowing as he goes with a yellow scythe, the blade of which is dripping with red. Hardly more aptly could the squadron indicate the charac- ter of missions, which are the de-. struction of troops and supply trains on the ground by means of. machine fire and light bombard- ment, Originally this was the 104th Pursuit Squadron, an organiza- tion with an enviable war record. June 28, 1918, it went to the front in the Toul sector, serving later at Chateau-Thierry, St. Mihiel, and the first and second battles of- the Meuse-Argonne. The squadron made. 179 patrols over the lines, engaged in 89 com- bats, gained 29 confirmed viece- tories, and suffered 13 casualties. Of these latter, five were killed, one wounded and seven captured. Around Washington, the pirate of the Twentieth Bombardment Squadron is.a familiar figure. In brilliant colors, with a _ vicious moustache surmounting a toothy scowl, he stands upon a bomb, preparing to hurl a smoking gren- ade. On the bomb are 11 Iron Crosses, representing 11 planes brought down by the squadfon in” fi France and two broad bands, call- ing attention to the two major en- gagéments in which the organiza- tion served. The Nineteenth Attack Squad- ron displays more humor in its insignia of two red dice, showing two “naturals,” than any desire to perpetuate its war record. Dur- ing the war, this organization served as a corps observation squadron -in the Toul sector, and . at St. Mihteil, and both battles of the Meuse Argonne.” Although its mission required that it avoid combat whenever possible, this squadron engaged in 23 aerial fights, brought down seven enemy planes, and suffered three casual- ties. Two of these were killed and one wounded. To attempt to recount the mean- ings of all of the insignia em- ployed in the Air Corps would. re- quire something of a volume.

It next turned its mind to prob- lems of agriculture, making two blades of grass grow where one grew before, and sent ifs agents to every corner of the world in a search for other grasses. Then it added the problems of the health of our race to those of the health of our cows and our work stock. And, as a sort of corollary to this rather magnificent program. it decided to take a peep at edu- cation. So far it has just shut one eye and squints at the prob- lem out of the other. But if this betrays a sense of neglect, if it betoken a lack of intelligent understanding, if it shows that we enshrine property and hide humanity in the closet, it by no means represents the attitude of the teaching fraternity of this country toward its own business. If it has come up, it has been through travail; if it has risen, it has been by its own ef- forts; if now it has reached the .pinnacle: where its light shines to all the dark corners of the world, thank the teachers themselves.

They forced themselves into the holy of holies of education, the doctorate. And it was this pride and this ambition that made pos- sible the National Education As- sociation. It is the capstone of the edifice they have been so pa- tiently building for more than 70 In two years it will cele- brate its diamond jubilee. Those who think *hat this great association is just another in- stance of our national fondness for organizing societies have their eyes turned in the wrong direc- tion. This can best be illustrated by definite instances of fact. Just the other day a Hindu came to Washington, not to see our Capital, not to go to our Li- brary—of Congress and look with glowing eyes on the parchment of our Declaration of Independence, but to learn what the American system of education is. He may have gone to the Bureau of Edu- cation. He did go to the head- quarters of the N. E. A. on-Six- teenth street and M, and there he sat down to learn. To him the common people of his country are just so many useless. creatures crawling on the ground and cum- bering it. Wheh he learned that education, our system of educa- tion which he had come ten thou- ~ sand miles to study, was freé to the masses, his eyes opened wide, fils bréath came in deep gasps; his ‘senses could ‘hardly animate his ' body. “All this is free?" he kept asking over and over again: ty There is hardly a week that passes which does not bring to that headquarters the. reverent teacher- and student from some come to. learn them in ‘Brazil and-in €zecho- slovakia, as well as to all other countries of the civilized world, have gone the programs and the posters the N. E. A. arranges for our own American education week, held usually during the week that embraces the anniver- sary of Armistice Day. These programs and these posters are the. work of experts employed. by the N. E. A., members of its cele- brated staff, and on them are de- voted a year’s close study, a years eareful planning, and all the ac- mulated knowledge that the teachers who make up the mem- bership of the N. E. A. have gath- ered. One would think that when any foreign nation celebrated edu- cation week, say in Brazil, it would give its own name io the institution and would stamp the program with its own national character and attributes. But not so. With hardly an exception, in every nation that holds this cele- bration, it is called “the Amevzi- can Education Week.” This is letting one’s iight shine in the dark places; this is erect- ing a lighthouse that casts a beam longer and farther than any light- house, except Christianity, has ever been able to cast. And the miraéle of it is that it is the teach- ers themselves who have done it; not: the heads of our great col- leges; not the heads“6f our State departments of education; not our great Federal Government; but the unknown men and women, some two hundred thousand of them, who constitutathe member- ship of this organization. When we count up the cost of the World War to America, let it be said that its greatest good to our own people was unshackling the schools. We fought that de- mocracy. might be free; we shed the blood of our young men that other men might be free to govern Their — To . themselves. Whether that high ideal has been reached, whether the world is safe for democracy, we leave to the Borahs and the Reeds and the Robinsons to say. But without that World War, our own schools would have still been hog tied to the little red school house and its plaintive ideals, Let us see if this is not so. Its an- swer will explain still further the National Education Association. From that war we learned that 25 per cent of our young men were illiterate, and pursuing that revelation we found that that same percentage of illiteracy ran through our nation. Then we found that of the selective group that formed the basis of our over- seas army 25 per cent were de- fective in ways that bring the blush to our honest cheeks. Among those who first felt the full force of this indictment were the teachers, and their thoughts were reflected in the thinking of the small group of less than 5,000 who composed the membership of the N. E. A. the year we entered the war, 1917. This pen has al- ready told what is being done to cure the illiteracy. It started with a lone woman school teacher, a member of the National Educa- tion Association and now a Na- tionwide clean-up campaign is on to erase it. When the more advanced and intelligent .thinkers among: our school-teachers began-to consider the problem of their failure. to meet:the tremendous responsibil- ity of educating the Nation, they did not sit down and whine or moan or even-shed a tear.: -They buckled on the armor. for a fight. They took down the sword and the-rifle, the’emblems of our lib- eo eae 3 erty. And they went forth te battle. Could 5,000, so few, do so much? I do not know whether they were familiar with how the good Lord picked His army or not. It will be remembered that He in- structed His general to race his men until they were tired and thirsty and then lead them to the babbling brook to cool off. All who threw themselves into the stream were rejected. All who lay down by its mossy side and shoved their faces into its cooling waters were laid aside. But those who knelt slowly, dipped the water in the cupped hands and sipped it as an expert does his coffee or his wine, that small group the Lord said would do, And with them He formed His army and won His battles. It may be that the 5,000 were all temperate, deliberate drinkers. At any rate they had stfong hearts and a clear vision, and they said: “If we do this great job as it should be done, we must enlist the whole teacher force of the Nation, That will give us the army, that will give us the resources, and without an army and without a treasury we can not doit.” It is remarkable that they did not go to the Government, or to the States, to the Rockefeller Founda- tion or to Julius Rosenwald, or out on. a drive, to get the money they needed. They did not ask the teachers for it. They had a high ideal, and the ideal sold it- self to those most interested in it. It is much to be doubted if the National Education Association would have been so soon dem- ocratized if the World War had not forced that problem on it. But its democratization was its salvation; that change made pos- sible its great program. When the membership was thrown open to all the teachers of the land, with a nominal mem- bership fee, there was a rush to join its ranks. In twelve years it has grown from 5,000 to 205,000. _Its treasury has increased from $25,000 to $500,000 per annum. Its permanent endowment fund has grown from barely nothing to $500,000. Its staff has widened from a full-time secretary and a financial assistant to a dozen or more chiefs, :thrice that many as- sistants and some 100 clerks and others.

4 ~— THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1930. —-- What Will Washington Be in 1980? N the year 1980 the United | States Government will have grown to pretensions undream- ed of today; for the simple reason that the United States itself will have reached a grand total in population of 200,000,000, or thereabouts. Therefore, the City of Washington will have overflow- ed its own boundaries, baving at- tained a population proportionate to the population of the Nation. Mr. Milton Fairchild, noted edu- cator and lecturer, founder here of the Character Education Institu- tion, has a vision of the future Washington that is dazzling. Yet it is built om concrete facts. A% an educator, Mr. Fairchild sees, first of all, the establishment in Washington of a complete na- tional research service, organized as a national university—a uni- versity that will have as its com- ponent parts the various depart- ments and bureaus of government. Even now, the Department of Agriculture and the Bureau of Standards function as schools of a university. There are _ lectures, and students attending the lec- tures. There is research work, and lots of it. There is untold wealth of knowledge in reposito- ries commanded by the Govern- ment. The Federal Government will need all the District of Co- lumbia territory for Federal work. In his imagination, Mr. Fair- child pictures the Washington of the future as a_ three-centered city—three cities, really, in one. ._ First of all, Washington, the District of Columbia, 50 or 55 years hence, according to Mr. Fairchild, will be devoted exclu- sively to carrying on the business of government. With the Nation three times its present population, with 200,000,000 people living within the confines of the United States, and this is merely follow- ing a geometric order of growth, the government for such a mass of population will naturally have to have large quarters. Future residents of the city will dwell in the suburbs. This means intensive. development of nearby Maryland and the Virginia territory and the consequent growth of two adjacent cities, the Washington of Maryland, and the Washington of Virginia, each having self-government. Almost, if not all, of the terri- tory now comprising the District of Columbia will have to be used for governmental activities. There’ will be no line separating the Maryland City of Washington from the Virginia City of Wash- ington, nor these two from the District; no line save political; for Washington, the District, will not be self-governed but will be governed by Congress, whereas residents in Maryland and Vir- ginia will organize themselves into two distinct city zgovern- ments having their own mayors, and councils, and other civie of- ficials. Taxes will be paid to these governments, and the States themselves will be reluctant to let the Federal Government nave any part of these fees, which will dmsure the three separate entities fn the future business structure. In the light of what the future holds, Mr. Fairchild sees the fight against the appointment of an Army officer as Commissioner here a short-sighted policy; for he fore- sees the day when Congress will manage the District completely, nor shall any person, save con- gressmen, have a word to say about. it, P “It is folly to go ahead with the planning of an ordinary city like Cleveland, or Detroit, or any other throughout the land, when we are dealing here with a city that bears no resemblance to any other; nor any other eity te it. Famous Educator Foresees a City of Not Less Than 2,000,000 Inhabitants Sprawling Into Both Maryland and Virginia With the Present District of Columbia Devoted Wholly to Government— A National University Will Take Rank as Great- est of All Educational and Research Agencies. The Washington of the future must be visioned now, this educa- tor believes. He has traveled up and down the country lecturing in most cities of the land and espe- cially has he been interested in edu- cation. Therefore, he knows that every public and private school in America, every high school and college, every university, will eventually coordinate and coop- erate with the Bureau of Educa- tion here toward the establishment of a national university—and this national university, utilizing every department and bureau of govern- ment. Other scientific work will expand and grow so big that the District itself will be just about large enough to house only the Government enterprises and de- partments. There has been no mention, up to the present, in any plan for the future, of a great building housing the Bureau of Education—one of the most important of all govern- mental agencies. It may, eventu- ally, and probably will, be a de- partment of Government, its com- missioner vested with the rank of Cabinet officer, a member of the President’s official family. If the national university comes to be anything like Mr. Fairchild visions it, all other universities— even the largest in the land—will be in cooperation therewith; for here, with all/the various sources of knowledge at hand, will be the most advanced postgraduate school in the world. The future Washington, then, must be modeled on the idea that a great Government plant will be centralized within the ‘present con- fines—and that this District of Columbia will be for Government business only. The residential dis- tricts will be scattered far and wide throughout the surrounding countryside. It is not stretching the imagination too far to see peo- ple living as far away as Norbeck, on the north, or beyond Mount Vernon, on the South—for there is the airplane, still in its infancy, and it’s only a short hop by plane from the proposed Airport, at Gravelly Point, to any place within 50 miles, on a radius, out-of Wash- ington. In the development of Washing- ton it will be a simple thing for This is as the Capital looked m By JOHN J. DALY Congress gradually to take control of the District of Columbia. Such a system will work out- naturally. Mr. Fairchild once wrote a re- port of the educational work done by the Government. In the com- Ppilation of this tract he visited the various departments, such as the Department of Agriculture, the Bureau of Education, the Bureau of Standards and others. He got there and then his first concep- tion of what a national universi- ty will mean to thé future Nation. There is no other city in all the country that has. such facilities to place before an earnest student. There is no place with such a wealth of data, gathered from ev- ery field of human knowledge. While the national university will not function exactly as do the State and private universities of the land, it will, none the less, be a vital factor in the world of edu- cation. - It will confer no degrees, true; .but it will place every means at the disposal of students seeking to succeed in discovering nhew truth and to arrange for the bet- terment of our civilization. Even now, universities interest- ed in advanced scientific subjects send their research students to Washington for final work. Here they are usually placed under some masters in the departments, paid by the Government, and al- lowed, to delve to their hearts’ content into whatever lore inter- ests them. At the various benches in the Bureau of Standards may be found young men working for higher degrees in scientific study. Asked what about the arts, as handmaidens to _ science, Mr. Fairchild pointed to the National Art Gallery, and the Library of Congress. There are the Nation’s storehouses of information. By 1980 there will be no library in the world outranking the Library of Congress. Even now it stands somewhere near third in the list of world libraries, outranked only by the libraries of Paris and London. You might say, off-hand, that while the school of letters in the national university, would be well represented, there would be no opportunity here for a man or woman who might select music, for instance, as a life wotk—or medicine. There again the Lib- —_ rary of Congress steps to the fore, with the Unfted Statés Public Health Service standing by its side. In music, the library now has a wealth of compositions in MS. form, and an auditorium, and a chamber devoted to all that is high and. holy in this preserve; so that any one, having mastered the simple scale can go there and call for the works of the masters, and study the intricate art of counter- point and harmony under profes- sors assigned from various col- leges of music. For research work in medicine, there is no better training than that afford- ed by the United States Public Health Service; nor is that all it will be in 1980—-when great dreams of great men will have come true. Study here, at the National Uni- versity, will naturally be done by direction and supervision from the local universities in the States. Thus, Yale University will send its star students here. So, too, Harvard, the Catholic University, Princeton, Cornell, Michigan, Chi- cago, California and universities in foreign countries. : The centering here of the Na- tional University students will contribute largely to the growth ~ of the city, though this is negli- gible compared with what will come from other sources. “It is high time that the con- gressmen and the business men of Washington got it into their heads that the future Washington will be something of this sort,” said Mr. Fairchild, calling at- tention to the fuss recently made over the contemplated ap- pointment of an Army officer to a commissionship. “They do not try to vision the future,” he said. The Washington, D. C., of the fu- ture will be governed by Congress absolutely and no man, outside the National Government, will have a word to say about it. Rightly so too, since this is to be a Feder city in every sense of the word.” “This protest against an Army officer taking over the reins of government is not a well ground- ed protest,” went on Mr. Fair- child. “It is not well grounded because it assumes self-govern- ment for the future District of Columbia, whereas the govern- ment of the city will be congres- sional.” - In this direction, Mr. Fairchild had gone farther than any other man who ee made a prediction of Washington’s future. It seems he has talked with many people, men and women, who are able any years ago when residents were wondering if 50 years hence ‘it would look as it does now! ' students of government, people of vision, and they agree with him. “Do they also believe that Washington will develop. into three cities—Washington,. D. C.; Washington, Va., and Washington, Md.?”’ he was asked. ‘‘Assuredly,’’ was the reply. “Even in face of the fact that there are some 65 square miles of territory in the city proper?” Mr. Fairchild chuckled. Sixty-five square miles looks like a lot of land now since there are many undeveloped tracts within this D. C. territory, but 65 square miles will be hardly enough territory for government 50 years from now, according to this vision. “Within seventy-five years, the total population of U. Ss. A. will be between 300 and 350 million people,” said Mr. Fairchild, who figures it out on a mathematical scale of progression. By the same virtue, the popu- lation of the three Washingtons, D. C., Md., Va., will have reached more than the 2,000,000 mark— with. the possibility of it being nearer 3,000,000. There will not be room enough for -all these people within the confines of the District of Colum- bia. Even if they cotld, they would not want to live within such a crowded space; for al- though there will be“‘ho great sky- scraper area in Washington, Gov- ernment buildings will have push- ed private dwelling houses off the lots—and the good folk living around here then will be out in the hitls of Maryland and Virginia —in those two sister cities that are as yet unorganized. The Nation is only a _ family grown large, Mr. Fairchild poiats out, and most of the difficulties. of government come from in- creases in population, and these difficulties themselves increase in geometrical process. A household of six persons, he points out, has more difficulty living in a private dwelling than a family of three. - The greater the number the more concessions must be made and family rules established. Now it will be that way in future Washington—and because of this Mr. Fairchild sees a greater and a happier community living under three separate forms of government, instead of one. Because future Washington will be so great, Mr. Fairchild thinks it would benefit all concerned if ‘the original portion of the Dis- trict of Columbia, now Arlington County, came back to the fold. . The Government will need it. “It wouldn’t be a bad thinz if the District could take back that Virginia territory,”” he remarked, citing the fact that there is al- ready a movement on the other side of the Potomac with just such a step in view. “Government will need the Virginia tract in due time, and it will save trouble to get it back under Congress now. “When the residents live in Washington, Md., and Washing- ton, Va., then the problem of a voteless Washington will solve _ itself. Congressmen, Cabinet members, Supreme Court judges, and the few others who are al- lowed to live in the D. C. territory will vote in their home States, but the residents will vote in either Maryland or ‘Virginia.” This national research univer- sity here in the District of Colum- bia will be in collaboration with all other universities in the States, and with all research institutes on independent foundations. The stu- dents will be older men and women who are at work enlarging the scope of human knowledge for the sake of helving to mature our civil- ization. Through the national re- search universit¥Y, the science re- search of the United States will be in affiliation with the universities and institutes of all foreign coun- tries. The research in the national re- search university will not be re- stricted to the nature sciences, but will include also_the human science, such as physiology and nutrition, sociology and psychology. eco- nomics and government, history and anthropology, education and philosophy. Some institutes rep- resenting these are already here. Then will be colleges and univer- sities under private management to serve the people of Washington, D. C., Maryland and Virginia: but the Government university will be scientific institution of: the whole Nation.

wi = ceili THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1930. aumeneeeneen a _____ OU could tell the pride they had in their new nation by the names of their fighting ships. These Frenchmen who had risen against their king to restore the sun of living to the people had had to arm themselves at sea against a ring of enemies unable to comprehend a warlike demoz:- racy. And the ships they sent to sea, like the Viking ships of old, bore the names of things so sacred that a whole nation of Frenchmen wept tears of joy and rage and exaltation. Such names as the Vengeur, Republique, France, Sovereign du Peuple, Liberte went to sea on the plunging prows of the ships of the young Republic of France. That they were so often defeated by the navy of England can not be ascribed to lack of val- or on the part of the French sail- ors—for they fought their ships until they burnt to the water line; but, rather, to a lack of training at sea which was bound to tell when any ships of Europe met English vessels filled with sailors so skilled that they could reef a fore topgallant with their eyes shut and make sail with a third of a ship’s company in a tenth of the time required by the sailors of any other nation. But this is a tale not of the ships of France but of a little French woman who sailed in one of them and who to this day is seen in the ships of the republic when evil is about to overtake them or their companies. Mme. Marie Durvelle with her bonnet and flounces, when she is seen in the dim light of a seagoing forecastle carefully mothering her two little daughters, is a ghostly harbinger of woes to come; for, . though she has been dead these many years, she comes out of the veil of beyond to comfort and mother the sailors of France when a ship flying the tricolor is about to face disaster. Over their wine the French sailors of today can tell. you of her appearance on the Ville de Paris, the Jeanne d’Are and the Montague. And in hushed voices they speak reverently of how she - died her first death in the Me- dusa frigate many years ago. Like a constant redeemer she dies a new death when each ship of France goes down—treads sadly over the waves and disappears in the mists which she always car- ries with her like a wraith gown. Even after Mme. Marie married Capt. Durvelle of the Republican Navy, she still was the doll-like figure of a girl from Rochelle who had had a very sad and a very short youth.. Some of the junior officers thought she was an anget, for her blue eyes, which looked upward so candidly and so pity- ingly from beneath her curling blond hair, seemed alvess- ready to weep like summer rain drop- ping over a violet patch. She was always bending over hér children and always looking up to the tall young men of the navy; her chil- dren were her dolls, and sailors and officers alike her idols. ~ She seemed but a lonely child herself. In any .ship of France she was as safe as in her own boudoir, for in every ship of France there — was a ship’s company that adored her. She seemed to epitomize the truth of the thought that after all, the fundamental and enduring things of human life are the sim- ple emotions of the heart. = 7 * oe HEN she came aboard the Me- dusa more than a century ago, she came with a passaze paper signed by a young Repub- lican officer of artillery known as Napoleon Bonaparte, and she was bound for Africa to meet her hus- band. There was no Suez Canal at that time, and the Medusa sailed to. round the Cape of Good Hope and climb up the eastern coast of Africa to Madagascar. Aboard there were 212 passen- gers and 119 officers and men in the crew—-331 in all. The cruise was a pleasant one, and for six weeks the frigate sailed southward with favoring winds. The tacks were not ex- tensive, and good speed was made. Finally the Cape was rounded and Medusa began the upward climb, There was dancing aboard every night. in which officers and ladies particin’ #1. while the _ sailors danced “g:iong themselves. During the first week of the northward climb it became evi- dent that there was friction of a serious nature between the cap- tain and his executive officer. The captain several times came to the poop and changed courses laid down by the first officer, and one This Is the Second of a Series of Six Thrilling Stories by an Author of Famous Fiction of the Sea and Its Men. Article No. II-THE WOMAN WHO KNEW NAPOLEON. time the first officer even changed a course laid down by the skipper; all of which put the junior offi- cers, quartermasters and deck force generally in confusion. It was a direct violation of the rules of the sea. Yet they believed the executive officer in the right, for it was his traditional duty to make the course and give it to the helm men. Furthermore, the captain, one Jules Lavergne, had been known to have wrecked two good ships of the line previously, and the fact that his first officer was an older sailor on the African coast militated in the crew’s minds against the captain. Several times the executive officer had been heard to’ comment that courses laid by the captain would throw the ship on shoals which were well known to African coast sailors. In fact, there gradually permeated throughout the vessel a feeling that disaster was impending be- cause of the captain’s arbitrary overruling of his executive officer. There is some suspicion, too, that the influence of the captain’s family in revolutionary circles, rather than competency for the position had presented him. with his comm:nd—a fatal failing of the French Republic, and which led to disasters that gave com- mand of the sea to England. * * + a T was a moonlit night in June, after a day in which a tropical sun had sweltered the decks, white with salt and scrubbed with holystones. Again the captain had ordered a close-in course, skirting the coast, despite the spe- - cific objections of his second in command, who asserted the ship would surely run aground on a grand bank, well known to hin, a sort of shelf extending out under By WILLIAM McFEE the sea. The captain had per- sisted in his course, and it was noticed that the executive officer put his cabin in order and even brought his immediate personal property on deck as though in preparation for leaving the ship. Some thought this but an act of pique, others were deeply con- cerned about it. At 2 p. m., just as the ship’s bell struck four times, a gentle lurch was felt by those below. Then a second passed. Another lurch, as though the ship had struck some gentle sand. This was followed by quite a definite shock, and the ship came to a stop. A cry came from the deck. “Aground! she’s struck, sir!”’ Immediately there was a husile throughout the ship. The captain came on deck and all the officers and watches were ordered to stand by. The sea was perfectly calm, Slowly the passengers straggled up. No alarm had been given, for the danger seeined slight, indeed. The chief officer again offered his views to the skipper. They were that if sail were reefed the high tide would carry the ship free. But the cap- tain was obdurate in his unwilling- ness to accept advice from his navigating officer. Immediately sail was ordered made, and the mast crews sprang aloft to spread it. No sooner had the sail been spread than a gust of wind and a strong current flung the ship an- other furlong, this time to a full stop and a terrific shock. The shock brought the few passengers not already aroused to the deck. They were 160 miles from land and on a narrow reef. It was de- cided to await the dawn; but be- fore that ever came, black thun- der clouds swept over the moon, and one of the vicious storms of the African coast began to beat toward the land. The seas rose and alternately lifted and flung the ship until the cries of passen- VA... A ANKE ; NAY § gers and crew alike rose through the dashing wind and water. Many were washed overboard. Others were busy constructing, with maul and hammer, a giant raft—for there were but six boats to accommodate the whole com- pany of passengers and crew. The fury of the storm first car- ried away the bulwarks; then followed the casks and line, and all the gear by which a ship is or- dinarily worked. It Swept them clean. The raft was finally ready, but the officers agreed that they must wait until the storm abated. Meanwhile the cries of men, the screams Of women and children mixed with the roar of ascending seas. In unnumbered tons of water waves swept over the decks, carrying all before them. The pumps ‘clogged. As timber fol- lowed timber, the very oakum was washed away. The ship be- came but a bundle of sticks. The raft was pushed overboard in the swirling water. Three boats were successfully launched, the others being smashed, all hands within them falling into the sea. All these were lost, unnoticed in each man’s fight to save himself. Dozens were cast into the sea as passengers and crew alike fell into the water to grasp the gun- wales of boats or the precarious edges of thre giant raft. At length the ship was desert- ed. The boats were rising high and low in the seas alongside and lines were cast to the raft. Even as the hoats took the raft in tow the last mast, the mainmast, went overboard with a thunderous crash. The ship broke with a splintering groan and became but a mass of floating debris. A woman screamed alongside, but none had courage to save her. She went down unnoticed. Others * went the same way. Finally, afloat in this dismal sea there were some 60 people in boats and some 154 on the raft, built so loosely that it undulated from end to end with the motion of the heaving sea. =, It became distressingly evident that the boats were bent on deserting the raft altogether. THE French flag sank beneath the waves and human souls at sea began to make their way. toward the land. The boats tow« ing the raft, the whole unfortu- nate procession set c* on the raging sea, the raft so heavily loaded that every one aboard was up to his knees in the water, and maintaining but a slippery foot- ing on a thin and uncertain lanking. é As the morning dawned it be- came apparent that less than half those aboard the Medusa would be saved. The sea, an angry mass of buffeting billows, arose Om every side... The boats had the raft in tow, but from the raft at almost every wave some one went screaming to his death. Finally, those on the raft began pulling in upon the tow line, hand over hand, in order to come up lo the boats. The people in the boats observed this, and knew that it would swamp them to take an- other person aboard. But even while they were conjecturing what to do fate itself solved the problem. The people on the raft, having taken in so much line, were sud- denly confronted with a giant comber which, like lightning, ran out their accumulated line until, like a whip, it snapped the tow line from the boats with a sharp report. Immediately the people on the raft looked to the boats to renew the line, but as they watched the boats’ graduaily pulled away. s 7. T became distressingly evident that the boats were bent on deserting the raft altogether and leaving all hands aboard it adrift. As a matter of fact, those on the raft had little better to hope for, and deserved little better, for it had been their manifest intention to swamp the boats, each man on the raft believing his standing at least entitled him to a place in the boats. Yet there was some reason for desperation in the hearts of those on the raft. They were so many that they were packed shoulder to shoulder, and were in three feet of water, with the raft so deep in the sea that surface fish occasionally swam against the legs of the pitiful hu- man company. It was manifest that either shore must speedily Continued on Page 15, Columa 1,

At the Shore.

Grand dames whose names “sr many seasons past have scintil- lated in the annals of society, young matrons whose brilliant marriages of a few years back are still remembered for their elegance and display, and girls for whom this present summer marks a first appearance here as adult members of the gay throng.

The skirt was very full and gath- ered into a wide belt. The panta- lets made of the same material were also very loose except at the ankle where they too were gath- ered into a narrow band. Of course we wore heavy stockings and a sort of sandal tied on with tapes. “Only after much persuasion from my more worldly aunt was I permitted to don the suit in the dressing booth and you may be sure that the trip across the sands was quite a terrifying experience for a modest girl brought up as I had been.”’ Later with a well-filled note book in my reticule TI left the madame waiting for the return of her own daughter, who, by the way, was clad in a very different garment from the one described above.

This novelty is likely to prove popular as it does not lose its crisp aspect in the sea air as readily as does most summer material. ; Among the gentlemen were many well known clubmen as well as a goodly number of young col- legians now on holiday...

Thank goodness, the house was in pretty good order, except dusting, and Sarah Saun- defs made the cold-slaw over at her house and brought it in. Other- wise I had the'entire meal to pre- pare myself. We had cold roast beef, and cream potatoes, the latter fixed with cheese like you wrote about. No one here has ever served pota- toes that way and I was right glad to do it first. I set rolls the night before and they were just right for baking at noon. Then I had a big r Atak, ' ~e a" see bsg Ob) Oto As long as there are mission- aries abroad or destitute people at home there will be sewing so- cieties, just as there always have been since the first one was es- tablished in some rock-ribbed vil- lage in New England. To be sure, community chests and other devices of organized charity have absorbed the more primitive work of church women in the larger towns and cities, but in smaller places and in rural communities the Pastor’s Aid and the various guilds still meet on the first and third Wednesdays of the month (or some other fort- nightly date) to make garments for the poor of their own church or for the needs of the missionary of their choice. A sour-tempered male critic of a time long past referred to the sewing circle as: ‘‘a place where seams are sewed and reputations rent.”” The chances are that he was a disgruntled old bachelor who, having no wife to do her part in the parish work, was oftenest called upon to make up a deficit with a cash contribu- tion. At any rate, it is easier to make an epigram than to prove its truth. Unfortunately the gathering in of tenor and bass material was not so simple a matter, since the young men had a disappointing way of going West or to the city just as they became musically and socially interesting. Outside talent had to be taken in, Thus the new druggist in the corner store having shown ability on sleigh rides and in cozy, lamp- lighted parlors, was sometimes installed in the Methodist choir (let us say) as first tenor even though he harbored a guilty rec- ollection of having been raised a Presbyterian in his home town.

Of,;course, there was cof- fee and tea and, oh, yes, three kinds of pickles and currant jelly and peach marmalade. Last month Mrs. Simpkins had nine kinds of pickles and preserves, but I thought that was wasteful. I hope they didn’t think I was stint- ing them, , e didn’t get as far with the sewing as we expected. One reason was that Mamie Nash came in and told us about her poor sister’s trouble with her husband. But we had finished six suits of women’s underwear and some baby things.

It would seem impossible that this could have been true, for Gen. Washington had been dead 112 years. The situation was stranger still when one faced it and realized that the man who had seen ashington, who doubtless constituted the nearest link be- tween him and the twentieth cen- tury, was himself but 85 years old. Yet he had —* seen Wash- ington and tom me in detail the whole story rs the extraordinary occurrence. There was not another man in 50 years who had set eyes on the first President. This man’s story was the final chapter in Washingten in which the physi- cal man appeared. This bast human link to Wash- ington was a dignified and elderly gentleman named John Lane, liv- ing, in 1911, when I knew him, in the 1400 block of L street. He had seen Washington, I may hasten to say, at the time his remains were transferred frem one tomb to an- other back in 1837. And a young boy, face to face with a strangely resurrected great man, carried away vivid impressions of what he saw. His was the last word of mouth story of Washington. Johnnie Lane, the boy, back in the eighteen thirties, was a page in the Senate. His uncle kept a small bookstore on Pennsylvania avenue at the foot of Capitol Hill. It was a favorite resort for states- men as they passed back and forth between the boarding houses of the neighborhood and the Capi- tol. As a child Johnnie Lane got many vivid impressions at that bookstore of the important men of that time. He remembered very well hearing Davy Crockett, enraged at the people of his own State of Tennessee, say that ‘‘My constituents may go to hell and I will go to Texas.”’ Next door to the bookstore lived the Widow Gorman, who kept a boarding house and who sometimes had trouble with her collections. There was a certain coxcomb of official life, for ex- ample, who owed her a board bill with which she had difficulties. Finally she induced him to give her a note which he had no idea of paying. In those days of early democracy in Washington she went to President Jackson with this note, telling him of her col- lection troubles. President Jack- son indorsed the note and she went to the bank and discounted it. When, in due course, the bank took it to the maker and de- manded payment he asked who had been so foolish as to indorse his note. He was shown the sig- nature of the President of the United States. He immediately scurried about, raised the money and paid it. : John Lane recalled stories of Sam Houston, whose huge stature and coonskin eap impressed him. He remembered the time when Lieut. Jefferson Davis came to town from Fort Dearborn, where Chicago now stands, with three Indian prisoners of war, Black ~ Superseding Continued from Page 3. story office building which will hardly accommodate its activities. But it will be said that this is @haraeteristic of all ‘the other or- ganizations that grew out of the war. They, too, increased their membership and their finanees and their staffs and have built big buildings in Washington to house their growing activities. Maybe so, but this thing is unique. It is the evolution of the little red schoolhouse, and the teachers did it themselves, with no help from others, and what they have created is for their own betterment. They have developed a thing that they are transmuting into the fine gold of education in the mountain coves and on the remote farms as well as in the villages, towns and cities ef the country.

By WILLIAM ATHERTON DU PUY Hawk, Prophet and Son. He re- membered the garrulousness of Daniel Webster and the fastidi- ousness of Henry Clay. It was in those days that an- other famous example of early Pennsylvania avenue financing on the part of these last two gentle- men took place, the record of which still reposes in Riggs Na- tional Bank. Henry Clay needed money and went to the bank with his note for $500. He was told that, under the rules of the bank, a note must have an indorser. He met Daniel Webster, who was a political and oratorical rival, but none the less a friend. He askecé Webster to indorse his note. Web- ster suggested that the note be made out for $1,000, as he, too, was in need of funds; that they cash it and divide the money. This was done. The note still remains unpaid and is today a valued souvenir of the bank. P Such was the background of the times for the story of the transfer of the remains of Wash- ington from one tomb to another which John Lane told. Washing- ton had died in 1799, and his re- mains had been placed in the modest tomb at Mount Vernon. His will, however, had provided that a more guitable structure be built and that they be transferred to it. “The family vault at Mount Vernon,” said Washington’s last will and testament, “requiring re- pairs, and being improperly sit- uated besides, I desire that a new one of brick and upon a larger scale. may be built at the foot of what is talled the Vineyard En- elosure, on the ground which is marked out, in which my remains and those of my deceased relatives (now in the old vault) and such other of my family as may choose to be entombed there, may be de- posited.” It was 30 years before anything was done toward carrying out this provision of Washington’s will. Then it was discovered that van- * dals had broken into the old tomb and, probably in the belief that they were those of Washington, had borne away some of the bones found there. This had aroused those responsible to action. The vandals were identified, punished and the bones they had stolen were recovered. There was pub- lic clamor for the execution of the provisions of Washington’s will and, under the dfrection of a the Three R’s any textbook or series of text books. It does find out what schools are doing, it tests this knowledge fully, and if it is worth while it is passed on to its mem- bers in bulletins or in the official journal of the organization, In- ,a word, it is a fact-finding body, and it opens up to the whole teaching profession of America, yea of the world, the new things that make for progress in the realm of education. y There is probably not in all America a more thoroughly demo- eratic society. Its president changes every year. One year he is a man and the next year she is a woman. She may come from Nebraska, as is the case this year, and next year he may come from South Carolina. The directors change with the annual conven- tions, so that new blood and new visions are brought into the or- ganization and keep it same and wholesome and alert. Twice a year two great conventions are held, the chief one in the summer, a delegated body, that brings to- gether thousands of teachers; the other one, composed of superia- dents, which is now meeting in Continued en Page 10, Column 1. Maj. Lewis, sole remaining execu- tor of the will, John Struthers and William Strickland, of Phila- delphia, prepared the new tomb. All was ready and the body was to be put in it. On the morning that the trans- fer was to be made the members of the committee had met at the bookstore of Johnnie Lane’s uncle and there awaited the com- ing of the coaches that were to take them to Mount Vernon. These ancient conveyances were, of course, the most perfect means of transportation of the day and time. When they arrived the committeemen were merrily stow-_ ing themselves away on the in- side. Young Johnnie Lane was one of a score of small boys who were looking on with youthful curiosity, and especially coveting the high seat beside the driver. Now Johnnie Lane was an espe- cial friend of Henry Clay, and ’ that courtly gentleman was a sort water trough which had _ been built by. Washington himself, and to which, through wooden pipes, the waters were led from a nearby spring. Washington had always driven this way when he came into Alexandria to church and business and his sympathy for the horses on the long, hard drive had led him to establish this watering trough which exists today, after having supplied drinks to the dob- bins of a century and a half, but which is generally ignored by the class of conveyances that now take ‘travelers to the most visited tomb on the Western Hemisphere. Finally the party arrived at Mount Vernon. Everything was in readiness for the opening of the old tomb. The new tomb which has now come to be considered quite inadequate and has been sarcas- tically described as “a glaring red building somewhat between a coachhonse and a cage,” was ready for occupancy. All was prepared for entering the old tomb.

When all was in readi- ness and there seemed no room left, Clay, much to the surprise of the boy, and much to his im- mediate glorification, seized Johnnie, swung him to that en- viable seat béside the driver, him- self clambered to the same lofty perch, and the party was on its way. : The stage coaches wound their way gry the outskirts of the village of Washington, across the Leng Bridge, which stood even then, and down through Alexan- dria, which was the metropolis of this region and a much more am- bitieus community than Washing- ton. Leaving this town which leoked down condescendingly upon Washington as a coun village tributary to it, the coaches took the old King’s highway, leading on to Mount Vernon. Half way there they stopped at a great ‘marble sarcopha > 3 Ff ~& $4 ; ; = a a oa 14 ¢484 € 3 , . % a dis s which was to coffin was _pre- > + surround the o pared. ‘ But when the tomb was entered the troubles bega™,; It was found that the wood of “ne coffin which surrounded the leaden casket was rotten from age and dampness and fell to pieces when an attempt was made to move ‘it. The leaden cas- ket, in accordance with the method of burial in the time of Washing- ton, had been a complete envelope inte which his body had been sealed. This teaden envelope, which was itself oblivious to the passing of time, had been filled with alcohel and so had provision been made for the indefinite preservation of the remains. This leaden casket with the licuid within it and the huge form of the Father of His Country, was se heavy that it wai with di — borne out ef the old and dar tomb. The new marble sarcophagus that was to receive it was waiting out in the bright sufishine of the Mount Vernon lawn. The leaden casket was reverentially lowered into it, fitted into its final resting place. Then, before the lid was put on which would shut out the world forever from this revered form, a careful examination was made of the casket. It was found that it remained hermetically sealed, that it had faithfully performed its purpose. The members of the committee were surprised to find that there was a panel of glass in the cas- ket, directly over the face of the form within. So obscured was it by the dust of time that it was hardly noticed. The members of the committee brushed .the dust off of it with their handkerchiefs. That which was within began to be revealed. Water was brought and the glass was carefully cleaned. The members looked in as through a window, In awe the members of committee gathered about gazed in. The alcohol had well served its purpose. The head and the trunk of the man were well preserved. The eyes of men for the last time viewed the remains of Washington. Little Johnnie Lane stood near by, somewhat frightened by what was going on. One of the mem- bers of the committee reached out for his hand, drew him to the sarcophagus, lifted him up and held him while he took a long look into the casket. It is the picture of what he saw that he carried half a century further along than any other living man, “It was the profile of Wash- ington that one saw,” John Lane explained in 1911. “His face was turned to one side. The flesh seemed well preserved but the hair had disappeared. At one point the tip of the cheek stuck out of the alcohol and there was a blemish of decay on it. But the head and the great trunk of the man remained as in life. “The strongest impression that I brought away with me was the hugeness of the bulk of Wash- ington. The head and chest seemed Herculean. People have often read that Washington was six-feet-four and large in propor- tion, but those figures do not earry the idea of the hugeness of the man. I always remembered him as a veritable giant.” There is little of record from other members of the party as te the impressions they received. One of them wrote that “they saw a head and breast of large dimen- sions which appeared to have guf- fered, but little from the effects of time.’”’ John Lane said that he would have recognized Washingten from his pictures. That of Stewart, for example, was like Washington though highly idealized. The true picture of Washington, he thought, is that which bangs ia Masonic Hall in Alexandria. It was painted for his lifelong friends in his home lodge and was satisfactory to them. George Washington, in his coffin, showed plainly the deep marks of small- pox which he had suffered in his youth as an incident of a trip to the West Indies. He had a deep scar across one cheek. In his latter life he developed a goiter. All of these are shown or sug- gested in the Masonic picture. All were evident when the boy saw him in his coffin. After the party had viewed the remains of Washington the Jid of the marble sarcophagus was placed over the leaden casket. The whole, was, sealed ‘iy such 4 way as to make-it; toes eirifght.: It was. placed’ In‘ the new tomb’ heside a: similar $atcpphagus con-- taining the remains of Mariha Washington. The tomb, barred by an iron gate, looks out on the Potomac. Multitudes come every year to view it. Dignitaries from all over the world have placed wreaths upon it. But the lid has not been raised these 93 years. Whether or not the remains of Washington are still intact nobody knows. Some years ago the body of Georgs Clinton. of New York, one time Vice President of the United States, was exhumed from Con- ressional Cemetery where it bad laid for 100 years, similarly -ia alcohol sealed in a leaden casket. The casket was opened and ait semblance of the body had disap- red. peThe same may be true of Wash- ington, although there are said te have been instances of bodies thus embalmed that have retained their form for hundreds of years. the and

After the bright sunshine of the hall this amber dusk was confusing As Dale hesitated uncertainly in the doorway she heard a sharp litle ex- clamation. Some one rose in panic. Dale's sun rose in panic. Dale’s sun- dazzled eyes caught a flash of some- thing green. Mimi—gathering the sheets of a let- ter together in confusion — almost running from the room as Dale en- tered. The girl looked after her with rapidly clearing eyes That was the first time she had ever seen Mimi lose poise. And why? Dale's eyes went over to the chair where Mimi had been sitting. Some- thing white on the floor—a sheet of the letter. Dale, leaning forward. with a sharp pain at he: heart—Brant’s writing. She would know that bold angular hand anywhere! Brant—vwrit- ing to Mimi! In a bound Dale was across the room. holding the page with hands which shook, her heart pressing up in her throat to stifle her. Brutally clear, the words leaped up at her. the ghastly mockery of this mar- riage I love you too much, Mimi, to ever get over it. From the very begin- ning there has never been any one but you If only the old scheme of things could have lasted! “Too late now, of course, but some- how I can’t accept the fact that it is all over. Mimi, if you could know the misery I have been through—” The words were fiames scorching her brain, drying up the tears in her heart. Dale's face was set and grey The hand which held the page did not tremble. Terrible, the stillmess creep- ing over her. he read the written words again, read them slowly, drinking in the bitter meaning as deliberately as ever Socrates drank his cup of hemlock. The middle sheet of a letter, evi- dently, fallen from the rest when Mimi gathered up the loose pages But Dale did not need the others. So ...it was all over. All she had struggled for.

The wave of nausea which was becoming so familiar, Hreaking over her again—rocking her-—-sweeping her beyond her depth. For a moment the physical anguish drowned the mental. She groped blindly for the bed: even as she did so—as though one Stripped I ARAMTTEAT AH HATHA AAA AAPRAOAD TEPPER STAT MRRP shock released the other—the truth rushed upon her. Staggering . .. But indisputable! A blazing owwhite light bursting through the darkness of her mind. Of course ... of course! Why had she been so blind! Why hadn’t she guessed before? For a moment it obliterated the hideous fact of Brant’s letter. One moment, and Dale had not even dreamed. The next—she knew. Knew it beyond all doubt, a faint pink struggling into her cold face, fear and wonder in her eyes. Her mind went back over the weeks. How had she been so blind? Why hadn't she guessed? Now, that she knew, everything was so plain. Dale walked over to the window and stood twisting the cord, looking out quietly—she who had been dis- tracted! Everything was blotted out for the moment, but the wonder of it. That, and the sudden almost Merce gladness, which leaped in her heart. An instinctive gladness born of the recognition, for almost immediately it was swamped in trouble. The brown ¢yes grew misty. Brant would think that she had wanted this. A new link in the chain to bind him now that his love was gone. What could she do? A year ago— six months ago, even, this would have been joy unspeakable. If she couid go to Brant—creep into his arms— tell him and see the grey eyes gc black with tenderness. . . A sob shook through Dale. Go t& Brant! Brant—who had written a love letter to Mimi! Brant—hating her! Resenting her! Suddenly Dale’s pride was flaming —dangerous. All her grief turned to resentment and a fierce sense of ownership seized her. She would meet this alone! wanted no one’s pity or help! A prairie fire of thought roaring through her brain. Something small and helpless, entirely dependent upon her. Could she look after it? Oh, she could—.she could! She would manage somehow. She would~ go away! Brant, who could write of the “ghastly mockery of this marriage” should never have a claim on her child! She, who had been alone all her life. would never be alone now. The child should be hers alone. If Brant knew, he would stick. “For the sake of the child”—how often she’d heard that said “They kept on together for the sake of the child.” A frail bridge of endurance flung across the chasm of unhappiness. No! She’d have no such cheap sub- stitute as that! She would not use her child to hold a man who had tired of her. Suppose she and Brant separated— what then? Divorce and a monthly sum doled out to her as a king pen- sions his retainers when their useful- ness is gone. And, because he was the father, Brant would have a claim on her child. Part of the time the child would spend with him—and Mimi!! A stab of hatred came at that which left Dale trembling. No! Hers alone! When he wrote that letter to Mimi Brant forfeited all claim on his child. It would be hers. Compensation for the aching loneli- ness of the months behind her—and the months which stretched ahead. Dale was suddenly cunning, with the frenzied cunning of a hunted ani- male. Safety lay in going away. If Brant came back—if he found how things were—she was trapped. Help- less, burdened as she would be, they could dictate their own terms. If she stayed on here they would claim her child. A Kendall, being trained into their mode of life, their way of thinking. Mrs. Kendall might love it. for Brant’s sake, but she would make it all Kendall. She was only one, Dale founa herself thinking wildly. How could she combat all of them? “They shan’t have it!” she said out loud. “It’s mine—all mine!” But— alone. The fear and the pain. The long terrifying months. She was crying. Pressing ‘frantic hands against her trembling lips. The pungent scent of sage .. that sprig of sage from Honey’s letter which still clung to her hands. | Dale closed. her, eyes and crew a long, shaking breath. She had found the: answer... , Dust and sage blowing about ‘Honey's desert store. . . Honey's hard, red arms about her protecting- ly... . . Honey voice, husky with tears, “We got a home waitin’ for you if you should ever need it. "Tain’t much, but our love’l] make it soft... .” Yes. Love would make soft the bed of pain. Love would dull the edge of that sharp, new fear. Leaden calm came over Dale at the thought. Without: Brant’s love she didn’t want to live. But she would have to live. Honey would help her. Never again the sweet, keen ecstasy of love—the love she had given to Brant. But this other—this holy love for something small and helpless... . Honey would help her. . In a daze, Dale dragged out a suit- case. She walked about the room listlessly, picking things up. Brant’s photograph—that was always the first thing she thought of. She lifted it now and stood for a long moment, studying it. The pictured eyes looked deep into her own. Those crisp, almost stern lips... to think they had been Me, aa « She tT TRAATT mn UHUUPHOOAPUTEIOETEOAVOAY PTAA REPT Dale put the picture down almost indifferently. She took a dress from the closet.

Eleanor . the thought of her was shadowy and unreal. Yet Eleanor had hurt her, too. Would she grow to feel this way about Brant? Some day would the dull hurt be gone from her heart and her thoughts cease to flutter at his name? It was all unreal. Unreal even when she stripped the suitcase. When she changed her clothes. She moved as one who walks in one’s sleep, strange- ly deliberate. Dale was going away. Going back to Honey. Less than $100 in bille un-. der the handkerchief of her dresser. Brant had given that to her just be- fore she left the city. Dale took the money. Took the string of pearls Brant had bought . for her in the West. That and her diamond set wedding ring were her only valuable bits of jewelry. Looking about the quiet room, in a last glance, Dale’s eyes fell on the crumpled sheet of letter. lips tightened grimly Oh, yes. e more thing. She picked: the paper up and smoothed it out. With the little gold pencil from her vanity case she wrote across the back: “This is the reason why I’ve gone. Do as you please about the mockery.’ She p’aced it in one of her station- ery envelopes, scrawled Brant’s name on the face and propped it on. the dresser. Like the ‘second act of a cheap melodrama, Dale thought with bitter humor. She met no one as she went down- stairs, -arrying the suitcase. The large, sunny house might have been in an enchanted sleep, Only Mimi saw her going alone up the driveway, leaning over with the weight of the suitcase. Mimi, watch- ing stealthily from an upstairs win- dow, frightened triumph in her heart. Mimi had banked everything on one high play and now she was frightened. What she had intended to accomp- lish, she was not quite certain. She had simply acted as instinctively as a snake darts, as a panther springs. Her jealous gaze told her the time was ripe. The cord was taut—straining. The least little touch—the merest pressure and it would snap. That Brant had caught Dale in Phil’s arms was an unexpected piece of good luck to Mimi. She had been quick to take advantage of it. She had kept Brant’s pleading letter from reaching Dale. She had gone so far that she must go further, Mimi was finding in panic. You did one act—then you com- mitted two more to cover up the first. So long as Dale and Brant were apart Mimi was safe. If only something would happen to cause a sharp break between them. ° It was then, perhaps, that the mad scheme had stolen into Mimi’s head. Those letters of Brant’s which she had kept all these years. ... Mimi had flown to her own room. Locked the door. Taken the letters from their long hiding place. Looking through them hastily. ... This one would do—a wild outburst from Brant at the time of Mimi's sudden marriage to the Count Della Curzia. A letter protesting against “the ghastly mockery of this mar- riage.” A letter in which Brant spoke of their long love for each other. Spoke tenderly of “the old scheme of things.” Suppose one dropped the second page of this letter where someone— Dale, say—should find it. . How was she to ‘know that it was not written yesterday? The paper was that heavy white paper which Brant always used. There was no date iine to betray the age. A plan strong in its very simplicity. What the result might be, Mimi did not stop to think. Dale would be jealous, of course. It might lead to a violent scene between her and Brant. Both had hot a ts » separation might fonew «. . A beautiful ‘scheme!.

Nor had she the right to tax their tiny income. No, her baby would come into the world dependent on no one. She would not go to Honey at once. She wouid go to work. Save money—mon- ey which would be sorely needed in that nard time to come. The thought of Phil brushed her mind and was instantly thrust aside. She knew that she would never seek Phil’s help now. She would get work on the stage. She would join some road show tour- ing the West. She could work for a long time yet. No one need know. When the train reached the city Dale went into a phone booth and copied the names of some theatrical agencies into her little gold engage- ment book. It was dreamlike to be walking through the sunshiny streets at this hour. She hoped she wuoldn’t meet people she knew—Eleanor, for in- stance. But there was little danger. Most of the Kendalls’ set were out of the city to escape the heat. A self-consciousness, a reluctance ANAL TM OO OO IDALE PLAYS THE GAME TUTTE NER she had never before known, fell on Dale when she entered the first agen- cy office. Before, when she was sup- porting herself, she had been cal- loused to appraising glances, imper- vious to curt rejections. Now she was supersensitive. Marriage and luxury had weakened her for earning her own living. Dale heard herself stammering out her request. She knew that she had lost poise—that she was making & poor impression. It was almost a relief to be told that the casting for the road shows had been finished over a week ago. No, they had nothing for her—indif- ferently. She went out with flaming cheeks. Down the scale Dale went, from walnut desks and Persian rugs to the agencies which hid at the top of nar- row, brass-edged stairs and had shab- by linoleum on the floor.

A Brant was so still that Mimi grew afraid. She twisted her head to peer, through the scrap of lace. Her heart jumped when she saw Brant’s face. It had tightened and sharpened until it seemed a mask carved from wood. Oh, he cared! He cared tremendously! At that, fierce jealousy leaped in Mimi, driving her on. — “Why, didn’t you see?

Mrs. Kendall rose, tender pity on her face. Brant’s facé went gray as though a handful of ashes had been rubbed over it. “She’s dead .. .” His mother’s laugh was harsh. “No, I'd almost choose that—for your sake.

No letter to you or—or anything. If I! hadn’t seen we wouldn’t have known what had happened——” The silence which fell as Mimi ceased talking was painful. The two women seemed afraid to move. Brant turned abruptly and went up- stairs. . This was the room she had had... the fragrance of her still hung on the air. Through the half open door of the closet he could glimpse the silky sheen of dresses that would never clasp that slim body again. ... He could not realize it. Could not make it seem true. Oh—he should have stayed and fought it out that night! cried his heart in anguish. Never to have Dale again. ... He could not be resentful. He could not hate her—yet.

Dale’s luminous eyes clinging to his through the rainy light the day he had fought Steve Kemp. He had fought Steve Kemp for her only to have her leave him for this slimy Clifford fellow! God, the irony of it! Suddenly Brant’s pride was awake and stinging. He was proud, was Brant, and this was a whip lash on the raw. That Dale should deal him this cowardly blow—that she could hurt him like this! Alone in that darkened. fragrant room, Brant fought it out. . Tearing memories of love and loyalty from his heart. Fighting back the pictures his imagination presented to torture him. He. came downstairs so pale, so stern that the others were frightened. No one spoke of it. Lan Luncheon was -a painful affair. _Brant spoke—when he spoke at all, of ~ the business which had called him so suddenly to Canada. Nance, sitting opposite with swollen eyes, said noth- ing for a while, but in the middle of the meal she suddenly broke and leaped to her feet. ° “Oh, God! How can you all sit here like this! It—it’s terrible! Terrible for her, too!” ~ “Nance—be still!” Mimi cried with a slaying look. Nance’s gray eyes were blazing in her colorless face and she wheeled on Mimi as though she would slap her. “You shut up!” she ctied_ shrilly. “Don’t you think I haven't been on to the way you pulssyfooted about after her! All these months, trying to get something on her! Well—I hope you're satisfied!” Nance towered above ' the shorter Mimi. “Nance!” Her mother’s voice had a ring to it the girl had not heard for years. It changed her to a little girl again. She began tocry. “I don’t care—I liked her! No matter what she’s done —I liked her. Even if she did run away with that good looking actor— even if she did hurt my own brother— I still like her! And it’s true—we all did act perfectly mangy to her. And it hurt her—I know!” “Leave the table until you can con- trol yourself!” Mrs. Kendall’s voice shook with anger. Nance dashed her napkin to the floor and groped her way toward the door, choked with tears. “Nance!” Brant suddenly rose and held out his arms. She flung herself at him. “Good little Slats broke. Nance’s long arms about his neck, half strangling him. Smearing his face with her tears. . When Nance had bolted from the room, Mimi crossed to Brant and placed an appealing little hand on his ” Brant’s voice arm. “You can’t finish eating now, dear, come out onto the sun porch ns Mimi’s sweet husky voice was laden with sympathy, the long dark eyes turned up to Brant’s face were dewy with sympathy. No one could resist Mimi. Sweet, gentle Mimi.... Watching them go through the French doors together, an old hope stirred in Mrs. Kendall’s heart. Per- haps, after all their foolish blunders, these two she so greatly loved might still fulfill her wish. ... When word went around the Jubilee Gardens that Clough was in the house, there was a visible tightening over the night club. Waiters stepped livelier. The very blonde hostess took on added vivacity and her voice gath- ered volume. The jazz orchestra be- came even more gymnastic in its executions. The hoofer acts speed- ed up. And out of the little corner office behind the coat checking stand, Has- kens, the proprietor, would appear, a tight-lipped little man, dressed with © the.sobriéty and painful precision ‘of &‘ the ‘waiter’ assigned’ him table which was always vacant in case Clough should suddenly appear and want it. For it was not what Clough spent— though he was a good spender when he couldn’t help it. It was because it was due to Clough’s favor that the Jubilee existed at all. Clough was the Jubilee’s protection. Clough was the reason small of moonshine were carried boldly on the waiters’ trays to the tables. Clough was the fixer between the Jubilee and the political powers. Clough was a big quiet man, the only marks of the ward politician be- ing his expressionless face and quick eyes. He was seated tonight at his usual table, his head of thick gray hair conspicuous in the crowded room Opposite him sat Trixie, the hostess, almost fawning in her attentions, but Clough paid t attention. Through the cigarette smoke his eyes were following the dancing girls who were finishing a number on the floor. “Who's the new doll?” he asked, totally indifferent to the fact that he TM PM ag , r.,Haskens himself: would: . go toward the door to greet, Clough by o the ¥ eee MTT By ANN FORESTER LLL OOOO OC OL had interrupted Trixie’s vivacious chatter. He barely nodded toward a girl on the end. Trixie looked sulky. “A new jane. Came on two days ago. Benny Cohen sent her to Haskens. I think she's rotten, myself.” Clough paid no heed to this char- itable footnote. “Her name?” he asked, never taking his eyes from the dancer. Trixie looked bored. ‘‘Evans.” putting Clough off. “Bring her over after the turn.” Trixie shrugged one plump bare shoulder and left reluctantly. Clough took his eyes from the floor and stared down into his glass, never looking up until a voice asked: “You want to see me?” The girl he had pointed out stood beside the table. For a moment he subjected her to a long, deliberate No ‘scrutiny. Better than ever, now he saw her close. Tantalizing combination—those ' deep brown eyes with the tawny hair. Nice hair, too—silky and shiny, mak- ing Trixie’s bleached mop look like tow. Clough had been a sailor in his submerged youth and privately he called Trixie “Rope-Ends.” He waved to the chair across the table and the girl slid into it. His Nice clear skin. A different look about her. .. she looked, he thought suddenly, like a lady. Even as the thought occurred to him he sneered at himself. Sure. -All these cheap janes pulled that blue blood stuff. Wouldn't he look bright, falling for that gag! But it irritated him that he had thought it for the moment and there was a sneer in his voice. “I suppose if I asked you about yourself you’d hand me that old one about your old man being mayor of the town where you lived.” A faint smile appeared in the som- ber depths of the brown eyes. . eyes continued their examination. “No. I don’t believe I'd tell you anything.” “No!” in exaggerated surprise. Then, abruptly, “Your name Evans?” “Bennie Cohen send you out to Haskens?” ° **Yes."° “How long you know Cohen?” “About ten minutes before he hired me.”’ Clough’s eyes narrowed. you do before that?” “Does it matter?” she asked gently. “You heard me.” Clough said it in the cold and ominous tone which us- ually made the questioned eager to “What'd looked across at him. Clough suddenly found his anger evaporated. Something in the kid’s smile that got one. Didn’t know whether it made him want to laugh or cry. “Drink your drink, that’s a good girl.” Clough nodded amiably to the small glass before Dale. Obediently she lifted it to her lips. When she put it down, Clough noted with pri- vate approval that it was quite as full. He didn’t like janes that were lushes. The more he talked to this girl the better he ‘tiked her. Something to her—not hardboiled, but deep. Couldn’t read her the way you could most of these babies. He said abruptly: “You know you're a rotten dancer!” “I’m rusty,” she agreed nervously. But I'll get in the swing of it again. I’ve been—I did legitimate parts for a year or so and I’m out of prac- tice. But I pick things up very quickly———”’ Clough was satisfied. The kid was afraid of her job. “I said you were a rotten dancer. But you’re a good looker. No need to worry, Baby.” A queer little tremor passed over Dale’s lips. Brant had called her Baby! And in what a different tone. ... Steady—Brant was gone... dead to her. Clough kept Dale at his table until it was time for her to change costume for the next turn. When she had gone and Haskens drifted up, the politician spoke abruptly. “Good looker you just took on.” ‘ Haskens lifted neat black brows. “Tike ‘her? ‘She can't darice.” “Doésn’t have to with: that ‘It°Clough liked the new girl, her job was safe. He even considered putting her in Trixie’s place—but, no—that wouldn’t do. This Evans kid could never get the suckers in the way Trixie could. When Dale went back to the dress- ing room she found a buzz of com- ment before her. The girl who shared her makeup shelf eyed her curiously. “Migawd ”" she said to the room at large, “did you see Lady Astorbilt cop off the big cheese! Speed to you, kid ”" she turned to Dale, “there isn’t a dame here wouldn't give her ear—ears not being worn much this year, anyway-——to get Clough inter- ested in her like that! I suppose you'll be ritzing us all soon.” Dale felt herself turning scarlet under her makeup. “He only asked me where I worked before.” The other girl looked lofty. “Don’t pull the coy stuff on me, lovey; it makes me sick to my stomach. Go ahead—grab Clough. Make the old tightwad pay through the nose. But look out that Trixie doesn’t decorate your ribs with a carving knife.” Just as remembered face.” Haskens did some quick thinking.: ~ nw PAM MEN LI AN NR RL TL TM LT MO » ' TH TAMMGAETALADU AAA coarseness, the greed of it... . Glaring light bulbs—the air full of powder and cheap scent. The worldly wise patter of the back stage dressing rooms. After the sedate surroundings of the Kendall house it struck Dale on the raw.

Waved to her. ... ° . e Dale went slowly over to the car and looked up, her eyes large and dark in her pale face. “You want to see me, Mr. Clough?” Clough jerked his head toward the seat beside him. “Get in. We'll get breakfast somewhere.” Dale shook her head. “Thank you, no. I had a sandwich before I left.” Clough'’s face darkened. There wasn't another girl at the Jubilee who wouldn’t have jumped at the chance. And this chilly little dame acting high hat! He wanted to tell her to go to the devil. Who did she think she was, anyway? Instead, to his own surprise, he heard himself saying roughly: “Come on, Angel Face. Be yourself. Nobody’s going to eat you.” Dale calculated quickly. By eating a hearty breakfast she could go without dinner. Every nickle saved was an im- portant item. She said slowly: “I'll go. But don’t blame me if you're sorry you asked me.” A dream—to be riding like this through the nearly empty streets in the white dawn. Far down in Dale’s eyes wes a dazed look. The change had been so abrupt. Why—just a week ago she had been at Pinelands. Pinelands ... at this hour it would be still wrapped in slumber, the fra- grance of the pines stealing in the windows: The big safe house—the sleek, sure people within ... Brant— asleep. His rumpled hair making him look oddly boyish, One brown arm flung restiessly above his head... . Oh, don’t think of Brant now! What a fool, to be breaking her heart over the man who loved Mimi... . That thought gave Dale the courage to thrust Brant out of her mind. She became defiantly vivacious, her whimsicalities startling Clough to heavy laughter. Over the table of a private booth they became acquainted. Clough could be useful, Dale saw, studying him through her lashes. Her job depend- ed upon him ... and she must have work in order to save for the hard time to come. Unreal—-sitting here at this hour flattering the big, slow man across the table. Sophisticated and simple, Clough was, oddly limited and strangely broad. His small political power was as the breath of life in nostrils, Dale gathered, and she Played upon that string. Beggars can’t be choosers ... she must think of the future. But when Clough, intoxicated by her sweetness and her nearness, reached over to pull her to his side, Dale fought him, silently and fran- tically. Panting and frightened she wedged herself into the narrow space between the table and the wall where he could not reach her and looked at him with imploring eyes. “Please don’t do that. I warned you. I told sorry if you asked me.” Clough was breathing heavily, head lowered, bull like, watching Dale with small bright eyes. “I suppose you want me to swallow a lot of hooey about this sweet and pure stuff. You—dancing down at the Jubilee and still being a plaster saint, eh?” Clough stopped in surprise. Dale's eyes had filled with tears and over her face and neck swept a crimson tide—a hot blush such as Clough had not seen for years.

When he'd gone to sea he'd torn out magazine pictures of slim blonde women and pinned them about his bunk. Dale was the embodiment of an old ideal. Not that he put it that way himself. He only knew that her face had called to him tonight across the dance floor. He only knew that the sight of her-—the feel of her was madness now. Crushing Dale's hair between his big hands. Holding her face rigid, like a helpless upturned flower while he pressed his mouth down hard on her own. Then a_ stinging blow across Clough's eyes, staggering him, filling the room with a flash of pain. A wrench—she was gone—the booth empty, the curtain in the doorway still swaying. (To be Continued.)

THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1930. ITH the Lateran Pact passed into the realm of historical documents, and Pius XI under its terms free to leave the confines of the Vatican, the an- cient rules and traditions so long a part of St. Peter’s are being revealed once more. For the pact not only created the Vatican City state but fundamentally changed the pontiff’s life and position. Before, he was a prisoner, even though a voluntary one. Now he is free to travel the world over. From a mere occupant of the Vati- can, dependent for his home on the good will of the Italian state, the Pope is monarch Born an Italian, he is now a “foreigner,” first citizen of his own realm, for the Pope enjoys exactly the same Bovereign status as the President of the United States, the King of England and the heads of all Other republics and monarchies. Contrary to general belief, the cardinals have no say in the state’s rule. Only when the Holy See becomes vacant through the reigning Pope’s death do his ad- ministrative powers pass to them. Even then they may onty issue laws in case of emergency. The new Pope can quash them. The Vatican City state is the only one in the weorld set in the midst of another state’s capital. Monumental walls are its fron- tiers; an immeasurable spiritual abyss divides it from all realms. As in other states, foreigners, meaning everybody but the 5138 Vatican citizens, must produce passports. The Swiss Guards mount sentry at the massive gates.

They cume from Switzerland’s three Catho- lic cantons. There are about 300 now, but more are being recruit- ed. Day and night they stand outside the Pope’s doors and challenge all comers. Vatican City is the quietest city in the world. Trolleys, street cries, squabbles, never cress its borders, sSesides having seme of the finest architecture and art treasures in existence, it is full of the color of past ages. Whether you wander in the vast chambers of its palaces, admire the Pope’s new railway station—which will enable him to reach othér coun- tries without setting foot in Italy —or mail cards with the new Papal stamps, you meet Papal chamberlains in hose, deublet and sword, noble guards it» fur colpaks and scarlet, gendarmes ia Napoleonic uniforms, cardinals in bright robes, resplendent ambas- sadors On their way to private audience with the Pope.

For instance, twelve cents out of every dollar we earn or accumalate gees to our automobiles and three cents to educating our children, We think more ef our cars than we do of our children—yes, four times as much, It is the research department and the journal, which, tegether with the classroom service, teuckh the teachers most directly of alt the arms of the service the Na- tional Education Association maintains. The journal, wita its more than two hundred thousand cireulation, is the largest technical publication in the world, It is the most widely quoted also. In a year it reviews and notes every 00k, every magazine article, every speech and every. important secu- lar editorial on any educational theme issued in that year. It dis- seminates such a mass of informa- tion in such an attractive ferm that one is amazed at the editorial acumen that can turn out such a thorough job.

Nobody in Rome knew it. Even Belgians heard of it only after the King’s return home. For fhe courtiers who ushered him to the threne room, noble guards on duty there, gendarmes who form- ed the escort of honor, Swiss Guards who did sentry, kept silent. They had been told the visit was ‘“incognito.”’ Discipline is strict ta this state.

This he- cause His Holiness retails food to Papal Guard. his citizens at cost price and cheaper than Rome, Don’t try to open a store or office. Don’t try to find a night’s lodging. Even citizens may not rert rooms to fel- low citizens without written per- mits from Count Serafini, the governor, for there is not much space in these fourteen acres with a thousand halls, chapels, apart- ments. For purpose of public order, His Holiness applies laws as made by the Italian authorities for Rome, except where they are von- trary to canon law and divine law as set forth in Hely Writ. Neither bars, dancing halls nor thaaters exist in the Papal State. Vatican citizens who feel Count Serafini has infringed their rights may appeal to the Pepe. A court with a lay president and two lay judges tries penai cases. There is no jury. Appeals, in first in- stance, are taken to the Holy Rota, famous for annulment of marriages; in second instance to the Segnature, suprame tribunal of the Holy See. Both these courts are composed of ecclesi- astics, though scme of the advo- cates are laymen. Count Serafini is solely respon- sible to the Pope for maintenance of law and order. Gendarmes are under him and he can call upon the Swiss Guards if need be. So far he has only made one arrest. A youth went careening about those sedate squares on a bicycle and had no bell or other signal, He paid a small fine. The Pope is strict about educa- tion. ‘Parents who fail to send their children to schooy regularly are fined up to $30 awd liabie to not more than ten days in the state jail for a third offense.

The other cardinal citi- zens live in Rome; they lose their citizenship when they cease to live there. All other people lose theirs when they cease to live in Vatican State. . With all his unbounded author- ity the Pope is a lonely man. No- body may talk to him on terms of equality, and he confides in no one. Strangely enough, he is hemmed in by an elaborate code of unwritten laws, immovable as those of the Medes and Persians and almost,as ancient. One of them forbids him to sit down to a meal with another human being. He must breakfast, dine and sup all alone. No dish, no drink, however pal- atable, may be sent twice to his solitary table. All food that has been served ence becomes the servants’ perquisites. Pius X, old and ailing, received a present of two bottles of old Tokay wine from a Hungarian nobleman. He sipped one glass at his frugal din- ner, felt new life in his veins and asked for the bottle next day. It was not given to him, so he had one glass out of the second bott’e.

The pleasantly rich Mr. Holt was not often given to dining alone with two men or in a sullen silence, but tonight the appear- ance of the trio did not allow Emil any hope of taking down an order for anything more expensively effervescent than the old fash- ioned cocktails they were medi- tatively sipping. Only the week before, Mr. Holt had entertained her in an emin- ently satisfactory manner. Covers for twelve ‘and six of them ladies of an uncontestable charm and voracious appetite, It had been a New Year’s eve party and had ushered in the year of 1920 ona scale to warm the cockles of the yestaurateur heart. Then “he had taken the orders in person. Tonight, as a reprimand, he would simply send Andre. The Black Sheep Comes Back Home, This young waiter stood, pencil attentively in hand, contemplating the diners and concealing his dis- approval. A dinner without wom- en always meant a smaller tip. Even the generous and admirab:e Mr. Holt reserved his most ex- travagant gestures for his lady guests and tonight he was enter- taining two men whose marked resemblance to him showed them to be only brothers. They agreed disappointingly on the $2 table d’hote, and showed no interest in the wine list which Andre ten- dered them. The gloom which overcast the faces of the younz men quickly spread to the attend- ant, and Andre disappeared into the kitchen muttering his frank opinion of canaile who would wash down, their dinner with ice water, of all things, and expect you to serve them their butter free. The three young men were, in- deed, in a -quarrelsome mood. John and Basil were the eldest of the family, a pair of hard- working young men who did not permit the fact that they had a round million doHars apiece to disturb their efforts to swell the family fortune. They lived a pleasantly simple life in an un- pretentious apartment house on the East Side. John indulged in a judiciously gay life, but Basil had become thoroughly domesti- cated and his present morose mood was largely caused by the absence of his wife, who had left town for the holidays. He dread- ed to return to the deserted apart- ment on the top floor of the house, where the moon gleamed coldly down through the skylight. And he would be unable to find his slippers. -Perhaps, he con- sidered, he might go down and spend the night in John’s apart- ment on the twelfth floor, in spite of the presence there of Malcolm, the family black sheep, who had returned to pester them. For Malcolm was as different from the other two as a particu- larly muggy night from a bright day. He had left home at an age when his brothers were content-- edly cramming for their college board exams and had begun the life of wandering which contin- ued to the present day. Occa- sionally his family had received appeals from him, when his name . was connected with some espe- cially unsavory affair, and they had saved him from jail on more than one occasion. After. ten years of this sort of thing Mal- colm’s father had died, leawing a will which was a miracle of legal care. His large fortune he di- vided equally between his elder sons, and Malcolm, cut off with the proverbial dollar, would have required the knowledge of juris- prudence of the supreme court and much of its power to find a rift in the legality. Nothing had been heard from him at the time of his father’s death, but now, a year later, he hati descended on the brothers from the wilds of Australia and .demanded a third share of the estate. His. request, indeed, came very close ‘to black- mail, and neither Basil nor John was apt te-enjoy the dinner party. - John had reluctantly consented to let Maltolm stay invhis apart ment for a few days and promised to give him a few thousand. dol- lars in return for a written assur- anee that he would never bother them again, From the hollow- ness of Thé*fangh tha hat: greeted | this prospeet, the brothéts Mae afraid. thet they wéré "in. for troub OW aes were eats! eel ——=—a>—>».-—n.."0....Q.Q?=_———— ———— - = —_.«~.o7"0O.."-.nN0-~--———€&XIXINYX”~QDMnrn=_—— mnie What Killed Two of Them, and How?—Ripe ne = a ne = a ee oe — = : = ae = SS 47> “THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1930. = Olives Were Blamed, But Basil’s Window Was woe « \ \ AO is WIAA VY . ‘ \ . ~*~ ‘A a y \ . . . ‘wk .

Andre placed three identical plates of hors d’oeuvres before the brothers and left contemptuously for the kitchen. ‘‘And just why,” said Basil, breaking the silence, “do you think that either John or I should feel any urge to help you? Il think that John has been absurd- ly generous, in fact he is quite willing to let his will stand as it is—in other words, if he should die his money would be held in trust for your children and mine. If we should have none within ten years, the money goes to charity. But there is every reason why you yourself should not be handed a large sum, for the good of the family name. I don’t want to preach, Mal, but I hate to think of the colors that you’d paint the gaudier resorts of the Riviera if you didn’t have to worry about cash. And after all, there is such a thing as family pride. If you’d just be reasonable, now, and marry some girl and settle down, then you have every assurance that the child will be a rich nian.”’ “Malcolm ss Jeaned back and laughed. “I don’t care to add bigamy to my sins. Didn’t I tell you that I had a wife? Yes, and a very fine young lady, too. - A—uh, bru- nette.’”’ The two stared at him. ‘Are you telling us,” said John slowly, ‘“‘that you have actually had the nerve to marry a native woman?’ “Legal as they make _ them,’’ said Mal cheerfully. ‘‘And wait till you see my two sons.” Andre condescended to peep through the door and saw that the gentlemen had finished their first course. He carried off the plates to the kitchen. At least they had not been hungry. Ilid- ing from the scrutiny of the me- ticulous Emil, Andre tossed an olive pit off each of the plates into the refuse and ate the bits of assorted pimento and egz and the two ripe olives from two of the plates. The green one which had been left on the third plate he threw contemptuously to the eat, who sniffed at it without in- terest. If the dinner had been a sorry affair before, if was now several shades gloomier than any oc- casion that Basil or John could remember. Malcolm alone 2- tained the ¢heerfulness of the un- regenerate and raised the spirits of the proprietor by ordering a quart of champagne. ' They Return to Basil’s Apartment. “I’m sorry, Mal,” said John finally as he gulped down his scalding cup of chickory, ‘‘but I .Feally can’t stand for that, you ’ Kniow. The will will have to be ehanged. I'll give you twenty Pehaesimese’ ) lege 54°T thousand as I promised, but we’ll have a lawyer draw up the papers and you will have to sign a waiver of all other claims. You can stay with me if you wish for the next few days and then I should advise a return to your charming family, They must miss you.” Quite unnettled, Malcolm watched John pay the check and . the three brothers returned home. They went to the fourteenth story to Basil’s apartment and sat back, wrapped in a silence that was ouly occasionally breken by some sa- tirical remark on Malcolm’s part. After a while Basil announced that he felt acutely and painfully ill. He was doubled up with pain and. Malcolm offered to set forth to find a doctor. ‘Try to get Wil- son—he lives below us on the ninth floor. I'll stay here and help him to get undressed,” said John, much concerned. In a few minutes Maleolm re- turned. Dr. Wilson was out, he said. But he had with him Dr. Grainger, a physician from acros;3 the street. After a brief examina- tion he shook his head. “Some kind of poisoning,” he said. ‘‘He’d better be taken to the hospital at once. I’ll take some specimens over to the laboratory while we’re waiting for the ambu- lance. When it gets here, go ahead. I'll join you at the hospi- tal. First, what did he have for dinner?’’ John racked his brain and final- ly recalled. “Ripe otives, eh? Did you ever hear of the bacillus botilinus? Well, that’s what I’m going to look for. There have been bad cases of poisoning from ripe olives lately, and that may be the trou- ble.’’ John telephoned the hospital and started downstairs for his coat. , Death Certificates Cause Public Interest. The next day the city authori- ties received two death certificates naming more victims of the deadly bacillus botilinus, and they were curiously both residents of the same address. It was grudgingly admitted to the press that the ripe- olive menace had proved fatal to John and Basil Holt. The death certificate for Basil’s decease was signed by Dr. Grainger, who had hurried to the hospital, expecting to meet the brothers there, and was told they had not yet arrived. He telephoned the apartment and got no answer. He supposed they were on the way and waited for some time, but finally, in -perplex- ity, returned to the apartment and ‘found Malcolm sitting by the body of his dead brother. The man seemed greatly upset and could hardly tell a eoherent story. He said that he had tried to reach Dr. “ry eo %s es Oe fea OOO *,.* t ‘ a* ay ~ AY Grainger immediately after the death, but had got no answer. Perhaps, in his haste, he had dialed the wrong number. The doctor wrote out the death cer- tificate and filed it at once. The certificate for John’s death was written by Dr. Wilson, who knew both brothers casually. Lie said that Malcolm had rushed down to his door and told him that he thought his brother John was dead and that he was unable to get the physician who iad at- tended Basil a short time before. Basil, he said, had been removed to the hospital in an ambulance. The doctor heard the story of the ripe olives, examined the body and made out the death certifi- cate. He had been impressed with Malcolm’s great and natural concern. He said the young man would not even allow him to take time, to ring for the elevator, but told him the apartment was on the twelfth floor and begged him to run up the stairs with him. Dr. Wilson, who was not an athlete, said he thought he had counted four flights and felt as if he had climbed ten when hé final- ly reached the open door of the apartment and entered the room. ‘He said that the only distinguish- ing mark he had observed on the body was a scar, similar to an ap- pendix scar, on the left side of the abdomen. ~-Basil'’s wife later told the authorities that John had had his appendix removed the year be- fore by the same surgeon who had removed her own tonsils and her husband’s pancreas.

He said that it was at 9:30 that he tried to get Dr. Wilson and could not find him in. Dr. Wilson said that at that hour he had heard the bell ring, but that when he opened the door no one was there. Apparently Malcolm. in his excitement, had given him up too soon. Maleolm returned im- mediately with Grainger, who stayed only a few minutes. When John returned from downstairs with his coat, walking up the stairway, he, Malcolm, went down to get his. At this time Basil was semi-conscious, but abviously alive. In a few minutes John tot- tered down the stairs, evidencing the same symptoms as Basil had shown, Malcolm put him to bed and tried to telephone Dr. Grainger without success. He rushed down to try Dr. Wilson’s bell again and got him this time. As he glanced from the window on his return to Basil’s apartment, he saw an am- bulance leaving and supposed that the doctor had returned and had taken Basil to the hospital. Actually the ambulance driver had left at that time, since he was unable to get any response from either apartment by means of the house telephone in the lobby. He supposed that he had gone to the wrong address and tried the corresponding number on the west side before return- ing to the hospital where Dr. Grainger was waiting. When Malcolm and Dr. Wilson returned to John’s apartment, the patient was already dead. This was at 10:30. At 11 o’clock he went upstairs to look for a cig- arette to relieve the tension of his nerves and found; to his horror, that Basil had not been taken to the hospital but had also died. He was so overwrought that when Dr. Grainger came in a few min- utes later he did not realize that he had not heard of John’s trag edy and forgot to tell him. After the joint funeral of the two brothers John’s will was opened and Malcolm’s sons were declared his heirs. Basil's money went to his widow. This woman, who preserved a great skepticism in the face of Mal- -colm’s efforts to be friendly, took advantage of his absence one day to search John’s old apartment, She found in an unlabeled vial a powder which, on analysis. was found to be a poison much used by the Australian natives. It could be easily administered by means of soaking a cloth in its solution and holding it over the mouth and nose of any victim and its effect was almost instantane- ous. She took her suspicions to the medica? examiner, who lis- tened courteously and then shook his head. “No, madam,” he said, “the symptoms of death from this poison are unmistakable. Even the clumsiest tyro could not con- fuse a death from this powder and from the bacillus botilinus., And both of the physicians in- volved in the-case are known to be reliable and competent men.” Explain the tragedy of the two brothers.

12 THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, FEBRUARY BOOKS By ELISABETH E. POE. HAT might be termed an W inspired course in love- making has come to Wellesley College in the gift of the famous collection of love let- ters which passed between Robert Browning and Elizabeth Barrett Browning. The romance of which these letters, purchased at a cost of between $75,000 and $100,000 by Miss Caroline Hazard, are the epistolary record is one of the classics of literature. Miss Hazard, a former president of Wellesley, gave the letters to that ‘institution in memoty of Alice Freeman Palmer, also a one- time head of that institution. The Period covered by the letters is fifteen years. There are 284 ‘!et- ters in all. They were arranged by Browning himself and consecu- tively numbered in his own hand after his wife’s death. America has no greater literary treasure than these letters. They are models of their kind, and their possession should induce many pilgrims to the classic precincts of Wellesley. These letters were in a sense the outgrowth and, yet in another, the beginning of the idyll between the poets, for some of them were written before they had met. The centenary of the death of William Hazlitt, the English es- gayist, has renewed interest in his works. An English publisher has announced already a centenary edition of his books. His essays have the abiding virtue of being applicable in any generation, and his followers constantly add re- cruits to their ranks of Hazlitt admirers. It is not a far step from the love letters of the Brownings to the tender secret hidden in the poetry of Emily Dickinson, a somewhat legendary figure in Parnassus, but none the less a most interesting one. In “Emily Dickinson, the Hu- man Background of Her Poetry,’ by Josephine Pollitt (Harper & Brothers, New York City), that author has attempted to lift the veil of her life at least a trifie more than has been possible be- fore this time. Of course, the modern slogan is: “Leave no love story of a poet unturned’’ and there is no deny- ing the fact that at times facts are divulged that a better sense of delicacy would have been left unmentioned. But in this reign of truth in literature—at least— and realism unbounded, reticence has small place. Emily Dickinson, it seems, was the object of a beautiful romance It was the memory of this golden hour in her life story which col- ored it with the faint glow of sor- Tow her admirers have found so attractive. In the publishers’ ma- terial issued with the book we are assured that the author has brought out a new theory in re- gard to Emily Dickinson’s love af- fair, the central mystery of her legend. It is true that her present biog- rapher has taken care to preserve the amenities of the situation. Yet, despite her best efforts, one can- -not but feel a regret that at this late hour what at best is a liberty has been taken. Having admin- istered this mild protest on behalf of the dear dead poet, now we may proceed to enjoy the book. Many notable figures appear on its pages.. We ride with Emily Dickinson and her family to hear Jenny Lind, “the Swedish Night- ingale,” sing at Northampton. The immortal Lind did not overplease the Puritan Dickinsons, for even Emily admitted afterward that “she did not care a fig for Jenny Lind.” As there is grave doubt that Emily ever tasted a fig in what might be called its native state, her comparison’ detracts nothing from the enduring reputa- tion of Jenny. Washington will be particularly interested in this book because a chapter is devoted to the poet’s life in the Capital in 1854, when her father, Judge Dickinson, had become a congressman. Emily enjoyed the gay life on the Poto- mac, and gained quite a reputation for her quick wit and repartee. In Washington, too, she met Edward Bissell Hunt, the hero of her love story—doomed by fate never to be more to her than a friend, but just as surely the source of her love poems. In the cycle of Lincoln thought which annually rises in connection with the recurring anniversary of his birth on February 12, 1809, a book of what might be called “fic- tionised biography” about his “comrade in arms, Gen. U. S. Grant,” is particularly timely. “If It Takes All Summer,” by Elisabeth Corbett (Frederick A. Stokes & Co., New York), presents the life story of Grant through the novel method of informal con- versations of real people. In this manner the reader is en- abled not only to see Grant at close range, but his great antagonist, Lee, President Andrew Jo nson, Abraham Lincoln and a host of others who figure ‘1 his life con- tacts in some manner or other. Across this book screen, as it were, walks the appealing figure of Julia Dent, the ““colonel’s daughter” whose love for the pen- niless young Lieut. Grant, out of West Point, lasted through life and beyond. We stand awe- stricken in that tiny farmhouse on Appomattox when victor and van- quished, Americans both, meet in a manner worthy of their heritage and sign what has proven to be a lasting peace between the States. Both men were great in that hour and the author in a few unforget- table phrases of conversation has painted it as on a great canvas of history. A few short chapters picture-in the same conversational manner his career as President and after he retired from that office. Then in similar manner those last dark days at Mount McGregor are shown with the inherent bravery of the man, the general, the Presi- dent and the good citizen, upper- most as he faced unflinchingly the last grim enemy ef all. Yes, it is a good book. Congratulations, Miss Corbett. Since there is such a demand for detective and mystery stories the art of such writing is engag- ing the attention of publishers and authors alike. The mystery story fans demand new situations and new angles to their mysteries, an order which is not so easy to fill after all. One of the most engrossing of the recent mystery books is “Grandmother Martin Is Murder- ed,”” by John Cournos (Farrar & Rinehart, Inc., New York). Certainly Grandmother, who was an aged variety of the cling- ing vine, with all the unreason- ableness and demands on the time and patience of every one about her which goes with this kind of personality, young or old, invited many of her harassed relatives to murder. They may have felt like it sometimes, but not one of the little group about her, the reader felt from the very beginning, was really capable of doing such a das- tardly deed. No one likes to suspect the young nurse, Fanny, although, of course, she is trying from almost the beginning of the book to sep- arate the young h=sband and wife. It was just plain spite, which, after all, is one incentive for a murder, which caused this nurse to poison Grandmother in the hope that the young wife, her granddaughter, would be accused. She made her plans most carefully, and placed evidence about to point to the young wife. Inspector Forbes was too much for her, and eppes the nurse, who cheats the law by tak- ing her own life, but with a last dramatic gesture writes her last testament as a confession and ex- — of the motives for her act. “The Amazing Web,”’ by Harry Stephen Keeler (E. P. Dutton & Co., New York), is truly amazing. A reader who does not follow the entangling circumstances of this web, weaving closely as the book opens and even closer as the mys- tery is unfalded, is lost. But, of course, they always follow the text with great attention, for the book is really of afsorbing and unusual interest and keeps the reader guessing what it is all about any way from the beginning to the end. “The Million Pound Deposit,’’ is the unusual title of the latest bogk by E. Phillips Oppenheim (Little, Brown & Co., Boston). When one begins to talk or write in such figures the attention of the public must necessarily be ar- rested. How to dispose of the priceless document whose value could noi be immediately renlized was the problem confronting the six men who had illegally gained posses- sion of the Boothroyd formula. Somehow Mr. Oppenheim has a way.ot making his criminals both respectable and unscrupulous. He gives them the knack of clever trickery worthy of a better calling. Lord Dutley who returned from an exciting hunting adventure was drawn into the web of the six men just —— SSE Se — W i hi iy i " ‘ ITCHENER may have been a great soldier but he certainly was not a ladies’ man. Once, in London, he invited the Duchess of Sermoneta—the beautiful Princess Vittoria Colonna of Rome—to go with him to inspect some Chinese porcelain being exhibited in a Bond street gallery, and after- wards go on to the court jeweler to see the crown jewels that were being cleaved up fur the corona- tion of King George. * . ” to The Duchess accepted. When the time came to start—they were lunching together at the home of a mutual friend—Kitchener said to her: ‘‘We will walk.’’ “I obediently tripped along, try- ing to keep up with his long strides on the baking Piccadilly pavement,’’ recalls the Duchess (in her reminiscences “Things Past’’), “and looking rather wist- fully at all the passing taxis.”’ + * ” Having inspected the Chinese porcelain, they proceeded to the court jeweler. Kitchener again said firmly: ““We will walk.”’ On they went in the blazing July sun- shine. After examining the Koh- i-noor and the Sceptre and other historic objects that are not ap- proachable in everyday life, the soldier and the beauty emerged once more into the London streets. And here’s the tid-bit—supplied by the Duchess: “My cavalier then said: ‘I must be off now. I’m busy. Good-by,’ and in a second he had vanished in the crowd and I picked my way along as best I could until I had found a taxi!” * * * t From one extreme to the other: The Duchess tells of a week-end party at the country home of Alfred de Rothschild, at which King Edward was the chief guest. Rothschild was the ‘“‘perfect host,” everything being most carefully thought out for the comfort of his guests. He even had a fleet of pony carriages, each driven by a diminutive groom, and their mis- sion was to follow anyone walking in the gardens so that they could get in whenever they felt tired! * * Then a servant made the round of the guests’ rooms before dinner, inquiring whether they wanted tea or coffee for breakfast. “Tea, please,” said the Duch- ess. “India or China, my lady?”’ ask- ed the servant, gravely. “China, I think,” diffidently. “Does your ladyship_ prefer Orange Pekoe, Lapsang, Suchong of Oolong?” “But I was absolutely bewilder- ed and fastened on the last name and found to his surprise that ad- venture is to be found on the Lon- don streets and in many an out- ‘of-way corner of the city as thrill- ing as that in Abyssinia. He ven- tured forth on his new hunt to discover the thief of the artificial silk formula to which he owed his fortune and found romance and excitement and intrigue. The high courage and practical common sense necessary in_ the nursing profession are found in the “Romance of a Nurse,” by Norma Patterson (Farrar & Rine- hart, Inc., New York). The men of: Veterans’ Hospital No. 80 thought Jenny was “a brick.” Those of us who read Miss Patterson’s story are inclined to agree with them. Jenny is a real- istic service person, such as are many of these warriors on the first line trenches of the hospitals of the Nation. Of course, ske was pretty and attractive, and liked fun, and fell in love. But her guiding star was Service, spelled with a capital S. While Jenny was such a good and practical nurse from a profes- sional viewpoint, she was, on the other hand. sentimental, and with very little logic, but a great. gen- erous, open heart and much charm. She was a little afraid of love, but found out that. after all, there is nothing really terrifying about it. “Lydia’s Little Plans,” by Eliza- beth Hall Yates (The Penn Pub- lishing Co.. Philadelphia), is a most charmingly told story of the working out of plans for the lives of those about her by Lydia, the heroine of the book. Those who loved her most feared most the secret plots that brewed in her chic little head behind those blonde bangs. Certainly Lydia was worth looking at, but some of her near relatives and friends looked askance at the demure and inno- cent exterior.

I was punished, for my skin was nearly burned off and I came out of the bath like a boiled lobster!’’ . * Zs + The sort of family feeling—to- talty lacking nowadays—that used to exist between an author and his readers is recalled by Lizette Woodworth Reese, the. beloved poet, who remembers that when Dickens died in the summer of 1870, she—a girl in her early teens—heard the news while vis- iting her grandmother at Balti- more, Md., walked all the mile and a half back to her own home say- ing to herself: ‘“‘Dickens ts dead. Dickens is dead.”’ ‘tT hurried on through the June weather,” says Miss Reese, “ready to cry both my eyes out because I h®¥d been told that Dickens was dead. And his readers every- where had that sense of perm- anent loss.’’ ad > * + Even as late as Kipling—in the heyday of his early popularity— that ‘‘family feeling’’ between au- thor and reader was still strong. Miss Reese recalls that when Kip- ling was desperately ill of pneu- monia in New York “how the entire country (the United States, remember) seemed to go about on hushed feet, with finger at lip.” : “A sensitive woman I knew,” reminisces Miss Reese (in “A Victorian Village’’—said village now being part of the City of Baltimore), “seeing a church door open, went into the building, dropped on her knees, and prayed that he would be allowed to live.” . a - And at one of the jliterary clubs in Baltimore, on an afternoon when the reports from Kipling’s physician became reassuring, the whole assembly, told of these, broke out into applause—Miss Reese recalls. Now, Mr. turn! Kipling, it’s your Which reminds me that Mark Twain, too, was seriously ill at the same time, and that the ca- bles were kept busy exchanging messages across the Atlantic, ask- ing after the condition of the two distinguished invalids. When both had recovered,. Mark went to London and was given a ban- quet at the Savage Club—where he was always a great favorite. Replying to the toast of health, he said: “England and America, which have been brought nigh to each in ‘Kipling, will not be divided in Twain.”’ a. - = .

POST: Sa SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1930. | UN CLE SAM. and the HOME-MAKER | = == —=——S SSeS ene - eo rete HE care and the welfare of 7 the homemakers of the Na- tion is one of the vital con- cerns of the Government shown in many ways but in none more ear- nestly than in the Woman’s Bu- reau of the Department of Labor. There the slogan, “America will be as strong as her women,” is | kept constantly before the experts and workers in that busy division of the Government. Speaking of this phase of the bureau’s work, its chief, Miss Mary Anderson, said recently: ‘Women are producers not only of economic goods but of future citizens, and whatever lowers the vitality and saps the energies of women limits their ability to be- stow a good health heritage upon their children and undermines the race. “One in every five women in the country,’’ continued Miss Ander- son, ‘is a wage earner and one in every five wage earners is a wom- an. Essential as it is to safeguard the interests of men wage earners, it is even more imperative to study the problem of women workers be- cause they have been in a weaker position, economically, than have men, and because in so many in- stances they have a triple role to enact, that of breadwinner, home- maker and mother.” The Women’s Bureau in its many bulletins and releases paints a vivid picture of how millions of American women manage to run their home and work in industry at the same time. Another division of Government service whose influence is felt di- rectiy in the American home is that of the Patent Office. Here have been safeguarded and pro- tected the thousand and one do- vices which have found new wars ——————————— eee eee a ee a of helping the homemaker with her endless task of making good American homes. It has been well said thatthe genius “of the in- ventor brings hundreds of com- forts to the poor which could not even be enjoyed by the rich before the rise of the American patent systein.’’ A glance around even the most ordinary of Ameri¢an ~ homes will prove the abiding truth in this statement. Genius has taken the hardest tasks of homemaking out of the hands of the women of the land and placed mechanical helps in them instead which permit the precious leisure that is best em- ployed in the promotion. of the cultural arts and the character training of children in the home. Women have not been content to leave all the inventive genius of the American in the hands of the men. Thousands of women have made application for patents on their inventions from Uncle Sam. True to his ideal of home helping and homemaking for the people, every aid has been given to wo- men in this new field. Today some of the most successful pat- ents are registered in the names of women inventors, who discov- ered these new cuts to homemak- ing usually through. that neces- sity which is, in very truth, the mother of invention.

Serve Souffles. HY isn’t the family treated more often to the delicate and delicious dish which the French appropriately call a *‘souffie’ — literally, ‘“‘something blown.’’ because it is so light and fluffy? One reason is that at some seasons of the year, eggs are scarce and high, and a souffle de- pends for its special consistency on three to five stiffly beaten egg whites. In the spring, however, the hens begin to lay actively Wgain, and in February and March in most climates eggs are plenti- ful and cheap. Another explana- tion perhaps lies in the idea held by many women that souffles are hard to make—in fact, that only experienced chefs should attempt them; that in amateur hands they will fall as soon as they are baked and so lose the very quality for which they are liked. It’s all in the knowing how. Long slow cooking is one of the secrets of making a perfect souffle. An oven thermometer is a help in maintaining an even low tempera- ture. The very moderate oven heat of 300 degrees F. expands the air bubbles in the egg whites and sets the light mixture throughout without toughening it. When baked at very moderate heat for an hour or more a souffle which is served immediately will fall but slightly For a substantial souffle either a thick white sauce or bread crumbs or both will act as binder for the ingredients. A souf- fle that contains bread crumbs will hold up better than one made with white sauce alone, * Souffles made with cheese, vege- table pulp, ground meat, or flaked fish are attractive for the main dish of the meal. Sweet souffles are used for dessert. Below is a recipe for one of each kind from the Bureau of Home Economies of the U. S. Department of Agricul- ture: Cheese Souffle. 4 eggs. 1% cups mitk. 1 cup fine dry bread crumbs 1 tablespoon butter. % pound American cheese. % teaspoon salt. % teaspoon paprika. 3 drops tabasco sauce.

The clothes worn by a little boy between 2 and 3 years old may be made to help train him in self-reliance, if carefully designed. If he is obliged always to run to some older person to be dressed, buttoned and unbuttoned, he does not develop the independence that he shodld have as he comes into contact with other ¢hildren ard people outside of the family circle. Being able to do #hings fer one- self is a great source of self-con- fidence. It is also a convenience to any mother to have her child able to dress himself without her _help. He soon begins to take pride ig selecting what he wishes to wear, and at this stage can be taught very readily to take care of his clothes, both when he wears them and when they ought to be put away or laid out ready for another day. In the past one of the greatest obstacles to complete independ- ence encountered by the small boy has been the complicated sys- tem of buttons and belts around his waist. There seems to be no reason why boys’ trousers should have so many buttons and open- ings. And in different suite they may be in different places so that the special manipulation of each suit has to be learned. After studying the faults of boys’ suits as made heretofore and the ways to remedy them, the Bureau of Home Economics of the United States Department of Ag- riculture has designed a number of practical suite which overcome some of the most undesirable features. It is suggested that until a little boy has learned to solve the problem of fow to fasten his own things, the same basic design be used for all his trousers, so that buttons and but- tonholes will always be in the same convenient place. Variety may be obtained by slight changes in detail, color, material and so on. Simple openings are recom- mended, with- buttons and button- holes that are easily Manipulated and uniform in size. For a very small boy who wears the Oliver Twist type of suit which . has the trousers buttoned to the blouse, a simple and satisfactory design is shown in the picture, The trouser leg is cut without a side ; -seam and the placket, instead of being on-the side is slanted for- ward to make a front'drop. The plackets are. finished to simulate welt pockets, with a fairly wide underlap.” The front section laps over the back in these trousefs, but only four buttons are used and they are so accessible that the little boy will have no trouble in buttoning them _correctly. This location of the buttons is espe- cially good in the case of a boy who likes to climb because but- — tons on the side seams often cause binding and are frequently torn off ag a result. As in all the trousers designed by the clothing special- ists of the bureau, these are above the knee, and are roomy enough to be comfortable especially in the seat. “ ‘maximum will still and egg yolks, Effects of Malnutrition. Bose —~ «daar. Bureau, Department of Labor.) + The effects of malnutritién on ‘feet work have long been recog- nized. Early school-feeding experi- ments both in England and in the United States showed that im- provement in the nutrition of chil- dren practically always resulted in improvement in their school. work. The teachers testified that after the~ children’s nutrition had been improved they were easier to teach, showed better power of con- centration and attenti ion, and ab- tained better ratings in_ school work than they did in the under- nourished condition. This is not difficult to understand, for a starved brain can not be expected to work efficiently any more than any other part of a starved body. Studies of the weights and . heights of schoolchildren also sug- gest a relationship between i si- cal and mental development. Many studies showing the degree of eor- relation between the growth of school ‘children and their mental advancement as shewn by progress im school, intelligence tests and class standing i indicate that in gen- eral the best-developed children physically are the furthest ad- vanced mentally. This correlation is not always- evident, however, when individuals or small groups are studied; malnourished. chil- dren are not always dull and backward in their school work and mentally rétarded children can not always be made to do good school work merely by improving their nutrition. The native mental endowment is the greatest determining factor. Al- though any child’s: mental. pow- ers are lowered by extreme malnutrition, a highly endowed child has a sufficient margin to enable him to do creditable school work and to pass well in mental tests, when tested for short periods of time. “Such a child even though malnourished and below his own superior rrentally to a better-nourished child of inferior mentality. With a child of average intelligence mal- nutrition may a~ sufficiently important factor to put him inte.. the mentally retarded group. Al-- though comparisons can not be made between - individuals, it ‘is safe to conclude that a child does the best mental work a which he is capable only w!en he is at his “optimum” state 'of nutrition and physical well-being. st athe. true, also, as Baldwin ‘many ‘. .. times, that when large ce numbers of children are conside sically . superior ° children rare ) alse : mentally superior. Cereals in the Diet. (U. 8. Department of Agriculture.) ‘ Cereals pl a very important part in. the of: children. Whether’ ‘served as~ bread, as. breakfast food, with. meat, or as dessert, they can-be depended ou ‘for a large part of the fuel that every active child meéds. .. Milk: and .other protein foods, - vege- tables and fruits, and butter may supply practically all the building and regulating materials needed, but unless they are used in un- duly large proportions they do not furnish enough fuel, and cereals are excellent for supple- menting them and rounding out the diet in this respect. Highly refined cereals such as white flour, modern kiln-dried cornmeal, and polished rice do not add much mineral. matter or vitamins to the diet, but preparations that include most of the bran and germ of the grain supply iron and vitamins A and B. When milk, eggs, vege- tables or fruits are scarce, it is a good. plan to use some whole wheat instead of white bread; and cracked wheat, oatmeal and brown rice rather than kinds made from only the starchy parts of the grain. Sandwiches made from whole wheat bread, lettuce seasoned with lemon juice and salt, are palat- able and rich in iron and vitamins. To be popular with children, cereals must be well prepared. Bread must be light, well baked and-of good flavor, and must have a rich brown erust. Cereal mushes must never be lumpy or salted too much or too little. Among the fats butter is gen- erally considered the best for children because, like milk, it is rich in the . growth-promoting vitamin A. It is no easier to. make an exact estimate of the quantity of butter than of milk. needed in a child’s diet.

HICH is greater, Marduk or Ashur? ‘ Only the test of arms can tell. For centuries the people of Babylonia have prayed to Mar- duk as their greatest god—and who can doubt his being the greatest in all the world; for is not Babylonia the world’s greatest power? There are men in the north who are going to dare the power of Marduk. They are Assyrians, and thejr greatest god is Ashur. Instead of giving Ashur the form of man or beast, they picture him as a disk with a pair of wings. As such, he may stand for the sun— which surely must have invisible wings in order to pass from East to West! Under the patronage of Ashur, the Assyrian king——Sennacherib— lays siege to Babylon. The re-- sistance is stubborn, but at length famine and pestilence force the proud city to surrender. The treas- ares of Babylon are seized, and chief among them is a _ great statue of Marduk. In humility, Marduk is taken to Nineveh, capital of the Assyrian empire. Now it is proved beyond doubt that Ashur is a greater god! The image of Marduk is not to be broken.or mutilated, but it will rest in Nineveh asa living proof that the god of Babylonia is less powerful than Ashur. Nimeveh is an active city, le- cated beside the Tigris River, with mountains rising behind it.

With curses, tears and wild im- precations, they watched the boats draw farther and farther away. Those in the boats, intent on sav- ing their own miserable hides, were deserting 154 fellow human beings to their fate. It seemed apparent to all that none on the raft could survive. So densely packed were they that the cries of those falling into the sea from the edges resounded ever the dashing billows. These unfertu- nates were invariably left to their fate, for those aboard the raft were satisfied to watch the num- bers of their comrades diminish if it meant a chance for them- selves. Every one was reducei to the ultimate primitive instinct and all fought for life. The boats had carried away all the food except a small cask of biscuit and four small casks of wine. These were placed in the center of the raft near a rude mast which had -been stepped, but to which there was no sail, ner was sail aboard the raft to remedy the situation. No oars, no sweeps, no sail, a hundred and fifty people on a heaving raft more than a hundred miles from land. ~ From the first, there had been a wild scramble to reach either raft or boats, with the result that families were separated and many lost altogether. Hence the ‘raft was filled with weeping people, even more grief-stricken than tefrorized. \ oe a . * \ HEN the littla company had | survived its first passion of grief and anger at the behavior of those in the boats, it had op- portunity to take stock of itself. \ _—~ Only one woman had been saved - aboard the raft, Mme. Durvelle. Both her children, 6 and 7 years of age, were with her near — the center of the’raft, cowering like chicks about her wet skirts. They had at least been shown the gallantry of the most preferred position, being befriended by two of the younger officers from the ship and the captain himself, who had been saved, but without any of his navigating instruments.

Then the priest announces which demon is causing the trouble, and supplies the proper image to be worn around the neck. In some way, ‘tis said, the image will drive out its demon counterpart. The cures are remarkable! Thus the life of Nineveh pro- ceeds. There are slaves obtained from foreigh wars; and. other slaves obtained from families which have fallen into debt.

Holy Mary beckons me into yonder seas for God’s aid for you all!” With superhuman efforts they held her. She beat against their pinioning arms.

While the captain and officers were busying themselvez with steadying the mast four of the Portuguese seamen who had been among the crew crept for- ward, and, with a great rush, car- ried off the wine casks which the officers had been hitherto carefully - guarding. It was’ not long before some fifty of the sailor survivors were dangerously drunk. Some walked off into the water, others descried ‘phantom sails and leaped off to — swim to them—through a maze of sharks’ fins cutting the sea in every direction. But others, in their delirium, conceiving the cap- tain and officers responsible for their cruel fate (as indeed the captain was), snatched up cut- lasses and knives and came on to the mast to butcher those whom they hated. But the captain, his two officers and 20 or 30 loyal sailors likewise held cutlasses and also a number of bayonets. Then ensued a bloody struggle to the death. More corpses tumbled and the raft rose higher and dryer. There was a lull before morning and when the gray dawn came it was noticed that Mme.

The Babylonians are under the sway of the As- syrians, but there is discontent in the subject kingdom and the peo- ple whisper among themselves about the possibilities of revolt. “Ashur was greater that time,” they say when they recall the fall of Babylon, “‘but another time the story may be different.’’ Word reaches Nineveh that the Babylonians have made an al- liance with Media, a growingly pewerful nation of mountain tribesmen; and Assyria is to be in- vaded! Sin-sharishkun, who has come to the Assyrian throne, sends emissaries to Egypt and Scythia to ask for aid against the alliance. Hearty promises are re- turned, but only Egypt is faithful to the promise—and Egypt ne longer stands high in the military world. Marching upon Nineveh, the Babylonians and Medes follow the bank of the Tigris and make a furious assault. Nineveh quivers and falls. The chief men are put to death, and a vast quantity of booty is obtained. The Assyrian capital is laid in ruins. No longer can Ashur claim to be the greatest of the gods!

When they reached the ship, a brig out of Hull, England, the English captain received them with every kindness, and their gaunt, terror-frozen faces, the English sailors said, were like those of men who had lived in. hell. The Frenchmen were amazed to see the English suddenly fall down upon their knees, face their fore- . mast, and utter prayers to the Holy Virgin. Upon questioning the British seamen, they were in- . formed that early the night be- fore, the form of a beautiful child- woman, with outstretched arms, hed appeared at their mast-head and beckoned them on a strange eourse.

Mrs: Juliette Low, an American vis- itor in England and a personal friend of Sir Robert Baden-Powell, the founder: of the Soy Scouts, realized how much the ~ood of her own coun- try meant to her. So in 1912 she or- ganized the first patrol of Girl Scouts in America, in Savannah, Ga. At first they were called the Girl Guides, but after a few months they were re- christened Girl Scouts, as that name yo wome: At first-the uniforms were simple little blue dresses. The: they changed to the brown uniforms. And about two years ago they changed to the green ones of today. The Girl Scout Handbook is dedi- cated to Juliette Low, their founder, in.grateful acknowledgment of all that’ she has done for the American Girl Scouts. Three cheers for Juliette Low! , * Girt Seouting in America. Girl Soouting, such a wonderful or- ganization, makes such fine women out of the girls.

Before becoming a Girl Scout a girl must be 10 years of age or over and must have attended at least four meetings, As soon as possible after a girl has passed her “tenderfoot test” she should pass her second class test. Of course, every girl wants to work for merit badges.

Whe Most Interesting Thing on My Block. At the corner of Connecticut ave- Mue and Seventh street, facing a large and beautiful park, stands an imposing structure of gray stone. It is a beautiful and spacious mansion. The building is rather dark, but is suggestive of glorious times in by- gone days. A wide garden surrounds it. In the summer nearly every species of flowers transform this gardén into a mass of color and loveliness. On the roof of the house is.a. garden. but as I have never dared to venture that far it is hardly possible to try and imagine what is there—maybe a real Fairyland Walls that are about 5 feet tall surround the grounds In one corner of the estate is a tiny cottage built in old English style. It is supposed that this is the home of the servants. In passing one can see through the gate and behold a large and well-equipped library, or a huge crystal-like chande- lier suspended from the ceiling. There are many and interesting tales told of the house and there is a strange sense of unrealness about it all, but to my mind it is the most interesting thing on my block.

Our whole nation waited a long time for something to be erected in order to preserve a “memory” for Lincoln. This structure helps im- mensely to beautify Potomac Park. and can be easily reached when the bridge, which is nearing com- pletion now, is finished. This beauti- ful bridge, which spans the calm Potomac, was started in 1927, and quick work was put on it. The Lincoln Memorial is placed on the axis of the Capitol and Washing- ton Monument. Set in eminence and Surrounded on all. sides by open spaces, the white marble temple is conspicuous. You can get an un- usual view of the Lincoln Memorial from the windows of the monument. The pillars of this memorial look quite small from a distance, but just wait till] you get near! The memoria! is of imposing size and of exquisite beauty. It is simple in plan, yet gorgeous: in construction. The architect of this memorial was Henry Bacon. He said in this build- ing should be an immense statue of Lincoln. All his plans were carried put.

In an old Virginia farmhouse which was one story, four rooms, and two big fireplaces that sent most of the heat up the chimney. Born on February 22. 1732, in Westmoreland County, George Washington, one of our most prominent men. Washing- ton’s father died when he was ll years of age. He went to school until he was 13 years old, until he started to work for Lord Fairfax. At the ag- of 15 he became a sur- veyor for Lord Fairfax. Washington liked this very much, only sometimes he was in great danger of the In- dians and wild beasts. At 16 Wash- ington wanted to become a sailor, but his mother thought it best not to, 580 he kept on working for Lord Fairfax until hé was 18. When the French occupied the Ohio Valley, Gov. Dunmore sent Washing- ton to tell the French to get out of the valley, but they would not. Gov. Dunmore sent Washington back to. fight against the French. He went, but was forced to surrender. This made the English think that Wash- ington would not make a success for them. With Washington’s surrender they sent Gen. Braddock. Gen Brad- dock knew nothing of fighting In- dians. He built a fort and when go- ing through the forest beating drums he was mortally wounded, so Wash- ington took his place and the defeat was turned into a victory. When the Revolutionary War started Washington was put in com- mand of the Continental Army. His two greatest victories were at York- town and the other the battle of Trenton, where Washington crossed the Delaware River and surprised the Hessians while they were having their Christmas holiday. Washington also was a signer of the Declaration of In- dependence. Washington married Mrs. Martha Custis. Washington, after the war, returned to Mount Vernon. But later was elected President. He-was the first man to start a Republic Govern- ment in this country. After he retired from the Presidency, he re- turned to Mount Vernon. When rid- ing ovér his farm tending to things, he caught cold and later died. The whole country mourned his death. , mouth. by .Washington:s tropps .

Washington's Part in the Revolutionary W ar. (Awarded Gold Membership Pin.) In Cambridge, Mass., in the year of 1776, George Washington was made commander in chief of the American Army. The army was very small and the people around him showed every. sign of being discouraged, but Wash- ington, great general that he was, failed to be so. After battles in New York, in which he was-defeated, Washington retreated through New Jersey to Pennsylvania. An army of Hessian troups, who were hired by George III of England, were quartered at Trenton across the river from Washington's camp, On Christ- mas night, 1776, Gen. Washington took his army and crossed .the ice floes of the Delaware River. He took Trenton by surprise and captured SPOT Gnm mm SR. Maw . over 1,000 prisoners. From Trenton . Washington went on to Princeton, where he defeated several British regiments. In an attempt to prevent Gen. Howe from taking Philadelphia, Wash- ~{ngton and his troops were defeated at Brandywine and Germantown. Then followed the bitter winter at Valley Forge. The soldiers were heart- ened at their commander's show of resistance, although they were half- starved and clothed in rags. In 1778, the Americans formed an alliance with the French who were.to be of great aid to Washington's army.

George Washington was born Feb- ruary 22, 1732, in Westmoreland County. Va. When he was a mere boy, his father died; so he was raised by his mother, Mary Washing- ‘ton, who is known in history as the “Mother of Washington.” It is said that all through Washington’s life he was noted for his truthfulness. When he was a boy he liked to play soldiers. At 16 years of age he was surveying all the country in the Shenandoah Valley. He had a hard life, sleeping on the ground and in danger of Indians. He was put in charge of a body of militia. At the age of 20 years he was a messenger to the French to request them to withdraw. George was made commander in chief at the age of 43. He set off at once to Boston to take charge of the force assembled there. Before Washington could- reach Boston, the New England Militia had shut the British up in that city. Finding out that the British intend- ed to fortify Bunker Hill, the patriots fortified Breed’s Hill, which lay be- tween Bunker Hill and Boston. He with many others suffered many. hardships while in the winter quar- ters at Valley Forge in 1778. In 1789, at the age of 57, Washing- ton was elected first President. John Adams, of Massachusetts, was elected Vice President. - Washington appointed Thomas Jefferson Secretary of State; Alexan- der Hamilton, Secretary of the Treas- ury: Henry” Knox, Secretary of War, and Edmund Randolph, Attorney General. Washington did not believe in po- litical parties. He selected two men as widely separated in political opin- ions as Jefferson and Hamilton, hop- ing to prevent party government. Washington served two terms as President, from 1789-1797. He was elected by entire electoral college. He was called “The Father of His Country.” He lived to be 67. December 14, 1799.

Suddenly she grew thoughtful and asked herself, “I wonder what Mr. Barnes meant when he said I may find out. I’m sure he didn’t mean I’d fall. He meant that I would soon under- stand.” After that May was never. sorry when she saw people clean off the snow; in fact, she opposed those who didn’t.

This club, “The Bunningtons,” and the “The Blossoms” had decided to have an ice-skating race on Wednes- day and now it was Monday. Bob was the president of “The Bun- ningtons” and he was very much worried because Dave, the best skater in the club, hed sprained his ankle would not be able to take part in the race. , “Just when we need him so,” Bob speke again. “He had to sprain his ankle, but I guess he couldn’t help it.” / “Goodness! If he can’t tate part in the race, I know we would be wise to put it off, because you know they can whip us if Dave can’t pi@y—I meant skate, because it is he that we are depending on,” spoke Jackie, and he arose and paced the floor in ex- citement. ; “There is nothing for us te do but to keep on practicing,” Will said. “Nothing.” “Well, I don’t think we are gaining anything by sitting here talking about it,” was Ned’s suggestion. “I think we ought to go out and start to practicing.” So the meeting was dismissed and the boys went over to the pond to practice. : Tuesday evening found the boys boys went off to the pond. The next day dawned clear and cool—just the right weather for the race, boys were in an altogether different state of mind. “I Know we can win now,” Hay- wood, the president, was saying, “be- cause Dave is out of the way now.” “Sure,” the boys answered as they grinned at each other. “What is the rest of them, if ‘Dave is hurt?” Joe asked with a grin. ae , won’t we be popular when we win?” “But how do you know that we are going to win?” Tom asked with a shake of his. head. “We must not be so sure.

Stop!” his voice rang “Don’t argue over such a silly will win, so stop and get arguing ready. We have only 20 minutes.” “I'll get you some day,” Jack mut- tered as he grabbed up his skates and joined the other boys. When The Bunningtons the lake, many people were there to see the race.

He had on because I have a sprained ahkie? No, indeed,” the other answered. “But it might make your ankle worse to skate on it,” Jim ; “That's nothing.

Jack was saying, “Bob, isn’t the Commun- ity Chest swell? Just think they gave us a home and now they are going to let us go to camp for a week.” “Gee, I'll say it’s swell,” replied Bob. This little. conversation was going on a week before the outing. At last the day arrived and many excited boys were ready. Bob and Jack among them. “Gee, isn’t this swell,” said Bob. “Gosh, I can’t ex- press my happiness in words,” answered Jack. At last off they start- ed, hiking along. All very happy. It was an Indian summer day, and a very good day for hiking. They arrived at the camp site about four hours later, after having a fine hike. The boys then began to set up their tents and arranging their be- longings. The next day Jack and Bob were swimming in a pool close by. “This is the first time I’ve had a vacation since mother died,” said Jack. a quiver in his voice. “Yes,” answered Bob, ‘but let’s talk of something more cheerful.” “All right.” They enjoyed their swim very much and then went ~ back te camp. The week went fiying by with many memortes of hikes, swims, games, and many other delightful things. The day. arrived to go home and the boys ready. When they reached home all were tired se they went to bed. When they were in bed Jack said, “Boy, didn’t we have a good time?

He was a very poor boy but very clever in school and was loved by his teach- er and all his classmates for his very nice disposition. He could not play with his classmates and little friends after school because he had to try to help his mother, who had to go out to work part of the day. When he came home from school he had to do any errands his mother told him to in the morning, then pare potatoes and prepare any other vege- tables for dinner. Then he had to clean the house as much as he could so that his tired mother would not have that work to do after her work outside of the home. So you see he was a real little worker.

Were you to go up to any average American citizen and ask “Who, in your opinion, is the greatest of our American statesmen, the one that stands highest as an example of pa- triotism, pure Americanism and honor?” he would almost invariably answer, “If you mean of the coun- try’s Presidents, George Washington, of course.” Should you question him further on the subject he would, nine chances out of ten, mention Abraham Lincoln as the next greatest President and thereby statesman. In foreign lands among the edu- cated classes and the uneducated as well the name of Washington calls forth the admiration and respect, both as regards his high character and his deeds. He is known all over the world today. Even in such distant lands as China, Japan and India he is known to some extent. Lincoln, while less universally appreciated, is spoken of with great reverence and is beloved of the people in both Europe and America Washington and Lincoln! What a gift to the world! America is justly proud of them both. We can hot say too much for these representatives of our country and its citizens. Both were truly typical of America; the one ef, educated aristocratic Virginia pa- triots, the best and oldest families in the land at that time; the other of hearty. hardworking pioneers, con- querors of the wilderness, men of the soil. Washington had every advantage of a settled home, large fortune, and a good education. Lincoln, on the other hand, had to work for his liv- ing at an early age, had neither the time nor the means of educating him- self except such moments as he could spare from his work, no comfortable home or extensive property. He was purely a self-made man like so many of these great men of the later period were. . In 1750 the settled region of Vir- ginia was the center of the thirteen colonies along the Atlantic seaboard. By 1850, a hundred years later, this center had moved a thousand miles westward to the Mississippi Valley, near Kentucky and Indiana. The people of Virginia during. the eight- eenth century were like neither the industrial freedom-loving. New . Eng- landers nor the aristocratic South- erners with their vast plantations and many slaves but were a compromise between the two, resulting in the pleasant, easy-going, thrifty Virgin- BY Ages Reesen b -—» * * . 4 ians, famous for taeir hospitality and: statesmen. While the distinction be- tween the North and South was still great in Lincoln’s time, that between the East and West was even greatér. The Mississippi and Ohio region was peopled mostly with farming home- steaders in contrast with the crowded industria] East and the sparsely popu- lated cattle-raising West, picturesque land of excitement, gold, Indians and cowboys. As Washington was typical of those representative peoples in the Revolu- tionary period, so Lincoln was repre- sentative of the typical Américan of his time. The differences between the two men were mainly the result of the difference in environment, the period in American history, the sec- tion, and the changing conditions. Both were products of the very best that existed in the land. They should be considered deserving of equal merit and honored as such. Now the question is: Which one of our recent Presidents belongs in this incomplete list? Surely America of the twentieth century has produced so far at least one great name among the leaders of our Nation. But which. one ig it? I am merely stating my opinions of this subject of national interest. Theré are three outstanding candidates for the honor of being stood beside Washington and Lincoln in the world’s esteem. These are Roosevelt, famous for action and dis- tinctive personality; and Wilson, our World War President, and the third is Hoover, our present President. ANN JARVIS (age 17). 134 C street southeast. Washington and . Lincoln. (Awarded Knighthood of Yeuth Mem- bership.) Washington was great; Lincoln was, too. We love them both— What can we do? Both were great, Both were true; We remember them both— What can we do? It was in the old colonia] days, When Washington was a lad; He never told a story.: He always minded his dad. He was a great statesman, And the people loved him go. We still remember him now, Though ‘twas so long ago. When he became President He did all that one could do To help to make a better union, To make it prosper, too. LORRAINE VAN SYCKLE (age 11). 120 East Windeor avenue, Alexan- dria, Va.

Why, yOu can’t imagine all the things you might find out. Maybe yOu can arrange visits and parties and trips into the country or to the movies or—oh, just most anything. The bést thing of all, though, is that you will be making new friends, if ~~ never written many letters, you w probably just say a few bashful words. But after awhile you will get so your pen or pencil will about our club? Maybe they aren’t able to read our paper, and so haven't learned. about the Knighthood of Youth. Tell them how they can join and how they can form their own club. That would be a real service. And you know there is no more fun than in giving service.

This book contains many valuable hints on the Knighthood and suggests a number of ways with which to make it effective in the Home, Circle and School. The fourth installment appears herewith: Choosing Your Hero Knight I N a far away valley, a little boy stood_in a cottage doorway talking to his mother. They looked toward the mountainside, where Nature had fashioned the rocks, so that they looked like the face of a man—a giant watching over the valley. His mother told Ernest of the old, old prophecy, that one day there would be a child born in this valley, who would grow to be the noblest and greatest man of his time and would re- semble the Great Stone Face. _- As he grew older Ernest waited hopefully year after year for the great man who was to come. Day by day the Great Stone Face was Ernest’s teacher for in it he saw what other people in their hurried lives could not see. | Many famous people returned to the valley: Gathergold, the man who had gained great wealth; Old Blood-and-Thunder, the famous warrior; Old Stony Phiz, the statesman; and then the Great Poet whom Ernest had long hoped might resemble his ideal. But each time Ern- est failed to see any likeness and was_much disappointed. Ernest was growing old and began to despair of seeing the long looked for hero; but each time the Face seemed to speak to him and reassure him with “Fear not, Ernest, he will come.” Ernest loved his simple life as an ordinary man, and the people did not dream that he might be even more than that; nor did he. But he began to talk to the people in the evenings of what was in his mind and heart. He used a natural pulpit in the mountainside where his audience could look at the Great Stone Face in the distance. One day the Great Poet came from afar to talk with Ernest—and as he listened to the eve- ning sermon, hé saw that Ernest himself looked just like the Great Stone Face. The people also believed that Ernest was the great prophet, and cheered him. But Ernest teok the Poet’s arm and quietly went to his cottage, still hoping that a better and wiser man who-looked like his beloved teacher might come. Like Ernest, we all grow to resemble those whom we study. a. Every member of your Club can; if you like, take the name of some ancient Knight or modern hero or heroine. After you have studied the lives of some great men and women can you choose the thing you like best about each? It may be the kindness of Lincoln: the ability whi ch Edison has to work; the modesty of Lindbergh, or the helpfulness of Clara Barton, the courage of Joan of Arc, or the untiring patience of Helen Keller. ° If you try long enough and hard enough to follow the example of your chosen hero, it is cer- tain that some day, like Ernest, you will begin to #esemble him. 3 KNIGHTS OF TODA father, the governess and Jack. Look, there are two children with them and all of them have on page pins. The governess is smiling—she is really SMILING!” Anne’s voice sounded very excited as she whispered this good news to the Valiant Lady as they sat in. the good seats of the early comers at George Washington Birthday party at the Rialto Thetter held under the aus- pices-of the Knighthood. of Youth. “Look, mother, over there, the girl in the pretty coat and hat,’’ she con- tinued. # “Sh-sh-si-—” ways glad to act the big brother. “They'll see you.” = “What if they do!” Anne retorted. “I'm going over to speak to Lenore.

She was never envious of them, either. Her own clothes were always nicely made and just whet she wanted.

He also told her that he was going to listen to her and to Jack more for he wanted them to get a lot out of life.” . “The governess is not so bad, either,” Anne said. “She told me that she was responsible for Lenore and Jack and wanted to do her full duty.

(To be continued.) Food Is Important Item in Checks in Gluttony or Similar Bad Habits Must Be Corrected. On your reminder card are some blank spaces where <dditional daily questions may be written to further assist young pages on their quest for the Knighthood of Youth. It has been suggested that a fine question for one of those spaces would be this one: “Have I eaten the proper kind of food today?” At first sight, a boy or girl might think that was a ques- tion which should be answered by his parents. True, in a sense, yet much depends on the ability of the page to restrain unwholesome food desires. Por instance, when mother sets a good breakfast before you, well balanced, milk, cereal, fruit, eggs, bread and butter, what do you do? Do you realize that a good breakfast meane a good start for the day or do you just eat sparingly and then stop in at the corner confectioner’s on your way to school and buy candy or other tid- bits, proper enough in its place, per- haps, but not in the least breakfast food. If you have habits of this nature, be sure and put a big black “O” opposite this question on your re~- minder card. There is another matter in con- nection with the food question for each page to consider. Do you take ample time for your meals or do you gobble them down? There is an at- tractive poster gotten out by the Na- tional Child Welfare Association, the parent organization of the Knight- hood of Youth which explains this matter very well. It reads as follows: “Aren’t you ‘shamed to gobble so! "Twill make you ill. You'll see! You should join the Health Crusade And chew your focd like me!” Be sure to eat vegetables, fruit and drink a quart of milk each day. Those might be called the keystones of a proper diet for a boy or girl. Some of you will exclaim at that, “It's that old spinech again!” Yes, it is, and every page will find spinach a won- derful aid in acquiring the good health he or she must have in order to reach the Castle of Knighthood. Have you ever heard of the Rain- bow Rhymes which, arranged with pictures in rainbow colors, make fruits and vegetables appealing to children. Here are some of them: Miss Spinach with her gown of green And juicy Mr. Pea, With Lettuce’s green ruffles As fresh as fresh can be. And tall, thin Mr. Celery, And Cabbage and String Bean, All make us feel like singing “The eating of the green.” Memorize that verse. Then ® is certain when the vegetable course ts served you will eat it. Here’s another one: Orange-colored oranges are hanging on the tree, Orange-colored turnips are good for you and me; Orange-colored carrots, any one should know, Keep us strong and sturdy, and help to make us grow. And. here-is another rainbow rhyme about yellow things: YeMow butter, thickly spread On this yeljow, nice corn bread, Yellow eggs the good hen lays, Yellow squash on summer days. All these golden things, I’m told Help to make us good as gold. Each night when the time comes to mark your reminder card, think over what you have eaten that day, remembering always that gluttony and bad food habits will hold you back on your quest to reach the Castle of Knighthood. Ice Crystals Ages Old Found in French Cave In caves in southwestern France water Crystals have been found which are estimated to date back to pre- historic times. They were discovered in the “Cave of the Sisters of the Palls” by archeologists who were ex- ploring for traces of primitive men, and to be perfect water crys- tals, probably the largest ever found. Some were about 4 inches across and an inch thick. Solid natura! ice or artificial ice seldom contains perfect crystals. To find them one must ex- amine snowflakes or else the “frost pictures” which appear on window panes in extremely cold weather. The formation of the unusual crys- tals in the French cave has been at- tributed to the remarkably constant conditions of moisture and freezing temperature which prevail in the cave. If a chemist were to make s#im- ilar crystals of salt or sugar in his laboratory he would have to have similar constant conditions. But in the case of the water crystals nature did the work in her own laboratory without a flaw long before men's laboratories were conceived.

PAGE 6 ae » ea Youths Are Fond Of Ponies as Pets, Being Jolly Fun Knights ef Olden Times First Learned to Ride That Way. Champ Clark, at one time Speaker of the House of Representatives, whose grandson, Champ Clark, 2d, of Mis- @ouri, was one of the first hoys to join the Knighthood of Youth sponsored wy The Washington Post, once de- clared that the best money he ever spent on his children was for ponies. “Thereby they learned to ride like Indians,” continued this distinguished statesman—a very useful accomplish- ment, “It kept them out in the open @ir and tn the health-giving sunshine. It prevented their forming bad hab- ite and gave them fine bodies and per- fect health. I taught them how to feed, curry and saddle the ponies, which was useful knowledge.” Another great man who believed in — as pets for his children was resident Theodore Roosevelt. When his youngest son, Quentin, was a little boy and went to Force Public School, On Massachusetts avenue, he owned a calico pony named Algonquin. It ‘was one of the sights of Washington to visitors from other cities who came here’ to see Quentin on Algonquin. Once when Quentin Roosevelt had the measies and was ill in his room on the third floor of the White House, his brother, Archie. took Algonquin @nd smuggled him into the elevator of the White House and rode him up- stairs to see his young master. _ Ponies are jolly fun and some of Our Post boys and girls and members of the Knighthood of Youth. I am sure, have them for pets. Of course. bicycles and roller skates have rather Pushed the pony aside as a means of motion, but nothing can compare with eg aS a pet for a small boy or a rl. Many of the pages of old in the days when Knighthood was in flower learned first to ride on ponies. As they studied the rules of knighthood they found that one of them were that they must be able to ride well. Another unwrit- ten rule which they were all careful to observe was that their ponies or horses must be well treated. It Is a dreadful thing to think that any ome would be cruel to such a content friend of man as the horse. But it is true. If ever you see a person mistreating a horse, call a policeman’s attention to it at once. For there are laws now in cities which prevent wicked persons from being cruel to animals. Many of the ponies today come from the Shetland Island in Europe, where they have been bred for cen- turies. The horse and, of course, the pony is a very ancient animal, and were known in Europe long before that land was well settled or what we call civilized. After the horse was tamed it was of great aid to man, and helped him to move his burdens of food and household be from place to place. The horse or the pony is a clever animal, and if wel treated is easily managed. The Shetland ponies are very strong and can bear burdens with ease. Bometimes horses, which are just Ponies grown up. have fine tricks to show to their friends. The Book of Knowledge tells of a horse which was able to open its stable door with its teeth. When this horse would walk out of his stable free as air, the other horses in the stable and the donkeys there would look out and wish they could go, too. “So ome day, this horse, be- longing to a great American general mamed Jackson, hearing its friends calling, as it was going off to the pas- ture, walked back to the other sta- bles,” opened every door with its mouth, and led all its friends off to the meadow with it.” Wasn't that a remarkable thing for a horse to do? If there is a horse ar pony in your barn be sure that you are kind to it. Help feed it and see that it has plenty of cool, fresh water to drink. Ask your father to show you how to groom it. as it is called. It will be knowledge that you can put to account many timesin your lives.

On the card the daily question each true page asks himself or herself is: “Did I do some extra work to help at home without being asked?” Only a spirit of helpfulness can make a real home. It is a joint ad- venture, a home, that of father, mother and the children. They make up the family team and must pull to- gether for success. A solemn proverb states: “A house divided against itself will not prevail.” and philosophy in that saying. No matter how small a page may be he or she can find ways in which’ to help in the home. The nicest way to go on this adventure is to do helpful things without being asked to do them or being reminded by mother each day. Remember that no task is too mean for the best of us. Work itself is ennobling amd, cer- tainly, when it means the great ad- venture of keeping the home together, o> and happy, any task is worthy us. In this connection just now a little anecdote told of George Washington It’s but required fer seme military purpose. It was heavy work, and they were shorthanded, but the sergeant in command stood by and merely looked ~on. A pleinly dressed officer came up, and remarking that another hand was needed, asked the idle man why he gave no help. “Oh, I’m the sergeant,” was the reply, in a tone which meant. “I’m much too good for watk like thas.” - ‘for that adventure, you ma There is real truth . The newcomer said nothing, ‘but he stripped off his. coat, worked witit a will and soon put the business through, Then, as he petied on his, coat again, he turned to the sergeant and said: “When next you're in a diffi- culty and want an extra hand send for the commander in chief.” That commander in chief was George Wash- ington. The president of the Knighthood of Youth, Dr. John H. Finley, of New York, a noted educator and publicist, recently wrote a. message to its mem- bers in which he said: “There are so many things to be done that it is dif- ficult to know what to put first; but those who see heaven surrounding children in their Infancy would, above all things, wish to prevent the walis of environment from closing in upon the growing boy and the growing girl and would do all that they could to make it certain that. both boy and girl should be attended by ‘the vision splendid’ throughout life. This is the highest welfare for the child, and it is habit formed in childhood that will best prevent the light from fading into the ‘comm day:” that will bring every m g ‘a noble chance’ and find ‘a noble knight for every chance.’” The noble chance of each page of the Knighthood of Youth is the op- portunity to follow that adventure of helpfulness in the home. -Best of all, earn stones for your Castle of Knighthood, is is one of the ways in which you y win it.

But if you forget some of them, put an O opposite , that question and try harder next day. Remember an honest O is much het- ter than a doubtful X. In a message to parents published by the Knighthood of Youth these hints are given to fathers and mothers in regard to a child’s heip- fulness in the home. The message reads: “If children are not helpful in the home, it is usually either because they have been forced to do toe much and too hard work, or because they have never been trained to do any. “Children tire quickly; therefore, the tasks given them should not be too lengthy. It is much better for a youngster to do several short pieces of work than to be made to keep. at a long, tedious task. » ness in battle of his ' “EYyéry ‘child mére than 3.‘or’)@.° have some regular w small, which he’ responsibility and pride in his work.” Schoolhoys Build Their Own Gymnasium y children work when ¢ able to learn, #0 do, and to How industrial arts school byilt a 60 by 80 foot structure to serve as is used for all the home basket- es of the high school, and three nights a week by the town teams It has also been used as a social + bt CFE CHS 1H Ow Ls PT QeS® -_-——<—- ——— ew ee ww -—<<—~ ee ewe oe <= we ———-*. ——_—<—— = | ee He ee ee eK their gymnasium. The - Geraint Returned . As Double Victor In Stirring Fight Brave Knight Defeats Foe and: Converts Him to Chivalry. The story of the brave and good and youthful Knight Geraint is one which has arrested the attention of many who take an interest in knight- hood. When this knight went forth to avenge an insult to his queen end to rescue a fair maiden and conquer a powerful knight, he did not wear the trappings of glory, but wore & rusty armor and a rusty sword. But he won because his right arm was. made ~ strong, because it was raised in the cause of righteousness and, his rusty armor reflected high ideals and devotion te duty. The lame horse on Which this — young knight rode proved to be as nimble as the well groomed charger of his opponent. This animal had real horse sense and knew that he was bearing this gallant knight into the lists for the right, and in those days, as well as in these, right makes might. The victory of Geraint against the powerful knight of the Sparrow Hawk was particularly noteworthy. Up to this time, this knight, who was not really a knight, but a knave, always won by fair means or foul. Every- body told young Geraint that there was little use entering the tournament against this knight, for he always won. Geraint knew that a victory won through unfair means such as this knight employed was not a vic- tory at. all, but a defeat. Only a vic- won in honorable manner en- . titled the victor to wear the laurel wreaths on his brow. No knight could fight for the sparrow hawk in possession of this unfair and unjust enemy unless the lady he considered the fairest in the land was with him. In this, as in other things, Geraint looked belew the surface and took for his lady, not a lady dressed in sifks 9nd satins, but a pooriy dressed girl with a beautiful face, reflecting a beautiful mind and heart. Geraint did not care how much peeple laughed his armor or ambling horse. He had grew and grew for the young fighter. Just as knights of today have more for the boy.or girl who enters the lists with a desire and determination to win whether his or her path be smooth and easy or not. This story their eyes and watch what they do before you form judgment upon them. Geraint was very farseeing. It finally was revealed that the beggar maiden he had selected was no beg- gar maiden at all but a princess and that the poor beggar standing at one side was the rightful lord and tady of the castle. They assumed their proper station when young victorious. Geraint took the sparrow hawk he had rescued frem the unfair knight to them. One of the most important features of this victory was that the unfair knight recognized his own unfairness and came to admire the right-think- ing and right-living ways and fair- youthful oppo- nent and set forth to apologize to those he had offended. He pledged himself to travel to the waste of the realm to right wrongs and up- hold the goodly order of the kind. Thus Geraint won a double victory.

The bird sitting on the gray post will be colored the same as the large bird, but will be darker brown, due to the back being more prominent. The limb upon which the large bird is perched should be warm gray, with a little green and shaded with black, BROWN THRASHER By MISS CARRIE JACOBS the poem about “the Merry Brown Thrush,” or what is still better, they should learn the words and be able to sing the song. The brown thrush spoken of in this poem is the brown thrasher and is also called the red thrush and brown mocking bird, all of which are good names and need little explain- ing. The rusty or reddish brown back and white spotted breast of the bird explains the name brown thrush. It is not a real thrush but a cousin ol the wrens and catbird. The brown is so red that red is just as good a name for it as red is for the color of the robin’s breast. Thrasher does mot seém td ‘be such A good name, for while it does move its tail @ great deal to help it sing as it seems, E VERY girl and boy should read yet you would not really call At thrashing. ‘But that, is ‘the name. that . has been given to it and we can not , change ft now. . Its tail is sO long that this makes a :9 F it ae it a little longer than the robin. Its bill is also long and the upper part is curved a little at the end. Do you know that birds’ eyes are not all of the same color? The little chickadee has tiny black eyes, and quite a num- ber of birds have black eyes, but the thrasher’s eyes are yellow. It builds a rather large nest of twigs, leaves and coarse rootlets lined with finer rootlets. This is placed usually in bushes, brush heaps, hedges and sometimes on.the ground under bushes, often near houses and even in city yards. Its eggs are bluish white speckled all over with brown. The brown thrasher lives in the Eastern part of this country all year, coming North early in April or very isfe in March and usually leaving during September, very seldom stay-’ ing over into October. It eats worms, insects and wild *“WORKING- -D RAWING: PMLA GAZINE- ‘CARRIER: “DESIG Beda sarap “W°KLENKE? .

MAGAZINE OW, boys, that we are progress- N ing so well with the making of of the furniture for your own room, we must not forget about keep- ing the room in good order. How about making a handy mag- azine carrier so that you have a place in which to tuck the many different current magaines you read, or a place for the newspapers. A room soon looks untidy if magaines and newspapers are Just thrown about. Here ts a little job for you that is very simple to make, requires only a few ordinary tools and can be made of old packing boxes If you wish. The best material to use ts the three- ply laminated wood, such as is often seen tn the construction of the bet< ter packing cases for radios and the like, or for a few cents any mill will gladiy furnish it for you. You. will require the following Pleces of wood, called “stock.” The dimensions given will be finished measurements. which means that you must allow for planing the stock to the exact sizes and smooth surfaces: 2 pleces for ends, %x@x17 inches. 2 pleces for sides, 5-16x1214x15%4 inches. 1 piece for center partition, 5-16x 12x15% inches. 1 plece for bottom, %x7%4,x15\%. 1 piece of %-inch dowel rod, 17 inches long. é The above measurements are for the simpler type of construction, namely, the butt joint, glued and nailed. If you prefer to use the end dado joint construction as shown, you must then increase the length of the two sides and center part about 7-16 Inch. Magazine carriers look very attrac- tive finished in a brilliant color of lacquer, and in this case no choice wood is necessary. Step No. 1—Making the patterns: On a heavy Sheet of cardboard make a full-size pattern of the curved parts; cut out these patterns with scissors or knife. Step No. 2—Getting out the stock: Hand dress (plane) all pieces to the required sizes, with true surfaces, Square edges and ends. Step No. 3—Cutting out the curved parts: Transfer the paper pattern to your work; then, using a turning compass or power jig or hand saw, saw out the outline. Smooth up these rough sawed edges with a spoke shave, chisel and cabinet file. Fi- nally, do the sandpapering with No. 1 and No. % sandpaper. A good cabinetmaker uses the file as little as possible. for the handles before cutting out the curved designed on the ends, to prevent splitting the wood. Step No. 4, ug—Thor- oughly sandpaper all parts with No. 1, No. % and No. 0 sandpaper. Use a scrap block of wood to fold the sandpaper over, while sandpapering so as to insure flat and true surfaces, free from waves and also to hold the square’ edges. Step No. 5, assethbly—Make a tria} fitting between clamps (but using no glue) to make sure that all parts will come together as they should; then mark all companion pieces, ag No. 1 & 1, No.2 & 2, &c. Take the work apart again. Now use plenty of the best quality glue and glue and nail together. Allow the pieces to set in the clamps undisturbed for at least -@ brush. It is well to bore holes ~ CARRIER four or five hours. Carefully test the work for squareness. Step No. 6, cleaning up—Remove all excess glue with a sharp chisel, cutting, where possible, across the grain; then sandpaper with No. 0 and No. 00 sandpaper. Do the final ruh- bing» with the paper held in the palm of the hand and slightly round all sharp edges. No. 7, finishing—There are two ways of getting a brilliant color finish on your project, namely, to lacquer it or to use paint and enamel. If you decide to lacquer it, shellac two coats. Rub gently between coats with No, 00 sandpaper and apply your favorite brand of lacquer, following the di- rections on the can. If you have e spraying outfit, use this in place of Brushing lacquer should be flowed on rather heavily, so ag to cover, if possible, with one coat; the shellac which was applied previously serves as the undercoating. If you prefer to use paint and enamel, apply one coat of shellac, when dry, rub vigorously with No. 0 sandpaper. Apply one coat of paint, mixed with half raw linseed oil and turpentine. Allow eight hours to dry, and rub lightly with No. 0 sandpaper; putty all nail holes and defects with lead and whiting putty. Apply two coats of flat paint, color as desired, and Hghtly rub between coats with No. 0 sandpaper. Now use a good quality of enamel. If a rubbed sgur- face is desired, apply two coats, rub- bing between coats with No. 00:sand- paper and the last coat with pumice stone powder and water. A véry satisfactory finish may be obtained by using egg shell enamel. .

But B&O engineers have instructions not to exceed certain fixed speeds. Posted in every engine cab is this general order. The engineer must first deliver his passengers in safety. He must deliver them in comfort. Speed must always be subor- dinate to safety and to comfort. A recording device is connected with the engine wheels— locked at the start of each run, and examined at headquarters THE CAPITOL LIMITED — to Chicago —, All Pullman—No Extra Fare When you're bound for Chicago, we hope you'll try our all-Pullman train, the CAPITOL LIMITED. You'll find a comfortable Club car and a delightful Sunroom-Observation car with news- papers and magazines. Also a courteous train secretary, maid-manicure, barber- valet and shower-bath completely at your service. Leaves—WASHINGTON - - 3:15 p-m. Arrives—CHICAGO - - - - 9:00a.m. And if you’re going to Cincinnati, Louisville, Indianapolis or St. Louis, try our All Pullman train—the National Limited. Leaves Washington 6:30 p. m. when the run is over. It shows exactly how fast the train has traveled at every point. If the engineer breaks the command- ments, even for a single mile, the record shows it and he is asked to explain. Our running time compares favorably with that of other roads. But you have the feeling always—at least we try to have you have it—that you are moving smoothly, quietly, seemingly without haste and with a little extra attention all the way.
