TO RELIEVE THE WHITE HOUSE.
Senator Lodge Explains His Plan for .
Separate Executive Building.

WASHINGTON, Dec. Ex-senator Lodge,
whose views In regard TO a new Executive
building for the use Of the President are
believed to represent the wishes OF Mr.
Roosevelt, has made an extended state
ment In support of the bill which he intro
duced in the Senate last week. The bill, he
says, proposes a separate Executive build
ing Of two stories, the lower one
devoted to rooms for State dinners and re-
ceptions. for which the White House rooms
nave become entirely insufficient. while tho
upper story should be arranged for the
Cabinet rooms and ample executive Offices.
Mr.. Lodge adds:
The White House would then be simply
the Presidents private residence. For
this purpose 1t Is ample and always will be,
because it would be wholly out Of keeping
with our system to build a great palace In
imitation Of Europe for our Presidents
TO live in. The White House Is a dignifed
simple building, excellent In architecture
and rich In historic associations. 1t never
must be changed or given up to any other
purpose. 1t will be always amply sufficient
II used only for the President and his family.
The Executive Building. which should be
handsome and in harmony with, the White
House architecture, must be placed near
enough to the White House to admit OF
connection by an underground tunnel, 80
that the President can go to his Office with
out going out of doors.
MY bill suggests the lot behind the
Treasury where the pedestal FOR the Sher-
mar statue now stands, but ] think a much
better place would be the corresponding
lot on the other side, behind the State De-
partment. This would bring the building
on the edge OF the proposed park. would
give it a good view and wide approaches
from all directions"

year Is 2ss. In the Second. or Brooklyn
Brigade there is a loss Of 8, increases
In the total qualifications Of two regi-
ments preventing any greater drop
from last seasons figures.
The Third Brigade, with headquarters
at Albany. consists OF tho Tenth Bat
talon, and two regiments and one bat
talon made up Of separate companies
In the Fourth, Ruffalo, Brigade are three
battalions Of separate companies. All
Of the organizations composed oil these
| companies have increased the number
Of their qualified rifemen. The Third
| Brigade has l,7e4 such men this year
as against 1929 in 1870; but large losses
by the city regiments Of the Fourth
Brigade outweigh gains by the country
battalions, and the total OF the brigade
Is IS less than it was last year.
The batteries, Troop C, and the Signal
CORPS, now attached to Headquarters.
show improvement since last year; but
the larger units, Squadron A, and the
Thirteenth Artillery. show Losses. There
is a total gain Of S over last years fig
ures, however. We do not give the
figures for the State and Brigade
Headquarters; but the result is a
total loss In tho National Guard OF
22i qualified marksmen, sharpshooters
and experts.
This unpleasant result is not to be
ascribed to slackness on the part OF the
general inspectors Of small arms prac-
tice. More interest in rife practice on
the part Of the brigade commanders
might have prevented 1t. The matter
is too important to be allowed to drop.
A soldier who annot shoot is of little
military value; and the duty of devel-
oping rifemen falls, not On the general
inspectors, but on the brigade COM
manders and their subordinate COM
manding officers.

HOSPITAL STEWARDS.
Are They Adequately Paid Now by tho
United states GoNernmentf

To THE EDITOR OF THE ~SUS-Sir: TIE
Sun of a recent date contained a paragraph
about non-commissioned officers OF the army
attached to posts who are about petitioning
Congress to make them warrant officers
and to increase their pay from s34 to SIS per
month. II post ordnance, commissary and
q~uartermaster ser geants desire the same
rank as gunners and boatswains at a salary
Of SIS per month, should stewards and acting
hospital stewards receive less'
From the writer's experience with hos
pital stewards In the Philippine Islands for
two years and a half. they are better educated
mca than were the majority OF Volunteer
officers In the Philippines, and these stewards
duties were none the less arduous. 1t re-
quires years Of college study to pass the rigid
examinations required now for hospital
stewards To be brief. ] shall quote Smart's
handbook for the hospital corps OF the United
States Army tSee page 81
The duties OF the stewards and acting stewards
are 10 look after and distribute hospital stores and
supplies: TO care for hospital property, to com
pound and administer medicines. to supervise the
preparation and serving OF food. 10 maintain dis
cipline In tho hospital and watca over Its general
police. 20 prepare the hospital reports and returns;
10 supervise the duties OF the hospital corps In

treatment In the minor ailments and accidents.
In addition he must naVe that higher knowledge

In other words. he must be an educated

and be called Mister" If they want. but
give more cncoura cement to tho. education
and character and experience OF stewards
and acting hospital stewards.
When n carpenter in the navy gets SO

receive less? The comparison Is actually
ridiculous A graduate nurse In civil NE
very seldom gets losS than $40 per week and
board An acting steward must he an eS-
pert Nurse and a pharmacist Al present

SOUTH CAROLINA Law.
How 1T Ministers to the Prevailing
Drink Habit.

The following editorial article is
copied from the New York Evening
Post:
Some far-reaching effects of recent
liquor legislation in South Carolina are
just being realized by the people of
the State. One effect is to change the
intent of the Dispensary Law, and to
sanction acts of the Board of Control
not in harmony with the original law
The basic feature of the dispensary sys-
tenn was that no liquor was to be
drunk on the premises where sold, and
that all officials were to be salaried so
that there would be no temptation to
increase sales for the sake of the prof
1T. Beer-selling was not contemp ated
in the original law, but beer privi-
leges'' have been granted by the Board
of Control, and in these beer dispen
saries the beer is drunk on the prem
ises, as in any saloon, the beer-seller
paying the State a royalty of Is cents
on each dozen bottles. All this has
been legaliZed by an amendment to the
law, passed at the recent session of the
Legislature. This amendment also per-
mits the establishment of distilleries
and breweries in Charleston and Co
lumbia, and four companies have ap-
piled for permission to make liquor in
Columbia. Step by step. the dis
pensary, heralded at it's creation as an
institution to lessen the sale of liquor,
has approached the status of the or
binary saloon, until now it ministers so
ably to the drink habit that there Is
lively competition to furnish the State
with it's liquid supplies.

SQUASH TENNIS Ia the Faa.

Squash tennis is the East's latest
fad. 1t has been in vogue for some
time at the New York Racquet and
Tennis Club at MeadowbrooK and Tux
edo and at the Philadelphia Racquet
Club. This winter squash-s spread In
popularity has been rapid and univer
sal. All the leading country clubs now
have courts, and many wealthy New
Workers and Philadelphians have had
private courts built. The second an
nual national squash tourna ment was
held last week at Tuxedo Park. Squash
tennis has been called "A half-brother
to the old English game of racquets,
and to handball." Also a first cousin to
lawn tennis. AS an aH-around exer-
else ii is said to be second to none.
= good squash player must have
sharp eye. The game requires the
greatest activity on TIE part of the
players, and there is not a dull moment
in a set between two clever men.
Squash tennis can be called an AM
ericau adoption Of racuuets. II differs
from racquets in the size Of the court
and the sort of racquet and ball used,
and is by TO mems as difficult to play
as the old Eng 81 game. me Oily

TO REPRESENT
PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Miss R.Davison, School Agent,
Chosen to Accompany tx
hibit to Buffalo

Superintendent of Public instruction
Atkinson has designated Miss Rose
Dawson, the assistant secretary and
school agent of the department, to rep
resent the public schools at the Buffa-
10 Exposition. Her name was propos-
ed in the Introduction of a bill by
Senator Carter in the Senate yester-
day, the bill calling for an appropria-
ton of $500 to pay the expenses of
Miss Dawson, and installing the edu
cational exhibit there. The bill is NOT
only backed by the Republicans, but
also by the majority of members of
both the House and Senate. Represen-
tative Beckley will father the measure
in the House, and 1t is understood that
this one bill, at least, viii De rushed
through without delay. 1t is suppos
ed that the Governor will sign the bill
when presented to him.
No one seems better fitted to take
care of the educational exhibit than
Miss Dawson, her experience in school
matters for Il number of years giving
her a knowledge that will be valuable
at the Exposition. She has made a
splendid record in her manifold duties
in the educational department, and has
proven herself one of it's most efficient
workers. Her position as school agent
has been sought after frequently by
men who believed that il should be
filled by one of the male sex, but the
successive heads of the department
have refused to dispense with her SER
vices on this ground. In fact, 1t is
likely that the salary attaching to the
dual positions will be raised, her back
ers being the majority members OF the
Legislature, as well as the Repub-

Mr.. Charles Comey, Of Cyclomere

II have been hack driver for a num-
Der of years past and this is an occu-
patton in which, through exposure to
weather and much jumping Up and
down from the vehicle, one is partic-
ularly liable to kidney complaint. I
suffered myself, from lame back for q
long while, and in my anxiety to get
rid of it tried several things which did
not reach the root of my trouble. An
advertisement acquainted me with
what grand work Doan's Backache
