Representatives Explain
Their Plan to the
President.
BIG INCREASE IN FIVE YEARS
Appointment of Five Hundred Flew Ca
diets Suggested, to Be Apportioned
Among Members of Congress and the
Executive.

A plan for the organization and in
crease of the Marine Corps was laid be-
fore President Roosevelt yesterday by
Representatives Butler. Dayton, and Mcy-
er of the House Committee on Naval At
fairs The idea which Messrs. Butler and
Never, who constitute special suhSom-
Mite on the Marine Corps. put forward
is that the company organization be
strictly maintained because of the bene-
fetal relations il fosters between enlist
ed men and officers.
President Roosevelt favors an increase
of 200 men in the Marine Corps. At
present it numbers 5000 men.
To satisfy the serious need for more
officers in the navy they suggested plan
whereby 500 extra cadets may be appoint
ed to the Naval Academy within the next
five years. The plan favored by the Com
mittee on Naval Affairs is that the cadet
ships be apportioned among Senators and
Representatives, and the President. por-
tion of the total of 500 TO be appointed
each year until the requirements for more
officers are satisfied.
President Roosevelt is said TO favor
this plan. which will probably be some
what amended, however, before bill is
introduced in Congress. In his annual
message the President recommended an
increase in the personnel of the navy.

"JODARTER" A COMPLIMENT.
Term Used in South to Express Clever
ness and Activity.

To the Editor of Tie Times:
l find in The Times of this morning an
enquiry as to what 'iodarter" is, Rep
resentative z. J. Hill OF Connecticut being
the gentleman who is anxious to find
whether or not he was complimented in
being so designated.
AS a Southern man, though not from
Georgia, l can assure my namesake that
he was "complimented." When 1 was a
boy. sixty years ago, If one of the boys
made an extraordinary catch at the ball
game, he was called 'jodarter." Later
on in life, if he made a good speech in
court or a hit in business, which showed
him to be alert and active, he was a
-'iodarter." In other words, the man who
was quick and active was a ''iodarter. -
so whether Mr.. Griggs SO intended or not,
he complimented Mr.. Hill by the use Of
this term. EZRA NAT HILL.

Merrymaking and Revelry.

The people of Los Angeles have also
elected that this shall be time of mer-
rymaking and innocent revelry. that the
world, which is at this season here rep
resented. may learn from the happy
hearted children of the South that Ameri-
cans once a year-at least in one corner
of this great country-know how to enjoy
themselves amid flowers and under sunny
skies in the light, inconsequent fashion
of less intense people.
The first Fiesta was held in 1891 and
in that. as in these Immediately follow
ing. the central idea was the romance and
history CT the Southwest-the Incas. Az
tees, Pueblos, California Missions,
touches OF Spanish and Mexican life; and
TO this was added the magnificent parade
of Cinnamon trapped out in barbaric
splcndor and an indescribable wealth of
Moral decoration.

procession OF flower covered vehicles, a
spectacle which no other city in the world
has accomplished. and one which visitors
