JOHNSON TO RETIRE
/. AS CHAIRMAN OF THE
DISTRICT COMMITTEE
Friction In the Body Is
Said to Be the
Reason.

firing of what he regards as a rather
thankless task, Congressman Ben John
son, chairman of the House District
Committee, has informed his friends
that he will retire from the chairman
ship of that committee at the end of
the SiXty-second Congress.
1t is understood, however. that Mr..
Johnson reserves the privilege of chang
ing his mind in event he should be un-
der fire when next March comes. In this
event, Mr.. Johnson probably will make
a finish fight. providing, of course, that
the Democrats retain control of the next
House.
The determination of Mr.. johnson to
retire from the District craftsmanship
Will come as no great surprise. There
has been more or less friction In the
District Committee for the past year.
Congressman J. Hampton Moore, rank
ing minority member recently resigned
and Congressman Kahn threatened TO do
so.
1t has been difficult for the chair to
obtain a quorum; bills have been piling
up in the committee room and District
day In the House has missed fire sew
eral times, Congesting the calendar In
old-fashioned way. With quorum
difficult to obtain and with some OF the
members of the committee working AT
cross purposes, the chairmanship OF
the District Committee has not been as
peaceful as summers dream. Mr..
Johnson's course, as the head OF the
committee, has also resulted in consid-
cradle criticism. His repeated attacks
upon the organic law has brought a
great deal of this unflattering comment.
Altogether. the chairman's friends say
that Mr.. johnson has decided that SIN
years service on the District Commit
tee Is about sufficient for any man, and
he is willing to relinquish what he now
regards as tiresome and thankless
task, the Craftsmanship OF what Is prac'
tically the city council of Washington
In the event of Mr.. Johnson's retire
ment his successor probably Will bf
picked from among the fouP ranking
members on the District Committee
congressman Aiken of South Carolina
Rothermel of Pennsylvania, HamiH o.
New Jersey, and Adair of Indiana.

BOARD MUST BEG
FOR FAIRGROUNDS
Entertainments to Be Given BY the Schools to Raise
Fund to Keep Open Breathing Places After
Close of Term

The failure of Congress TO appropriate
Sb,74O for maintenance of the play
grounds, run in connection with the
public schools may make II necessary
for the BOARD OF Education to force the
principals and teachers to pass the hat,
in order that the children may enjoy
the Fairgrounds for six weeks after the
close of schools in June.
In a recommendation to the board, at
its meeting at the Franklin School, yes
terday Superintendent Davidson asked
that permission be given principals OF
schools to give entertainments, the pro-
ceeds of which shall go toward the sup.
port of the Fairgrounds. 1t is also de-
sired to state that contributions to-
ward the funds will he gratefully well
coined. All funds raised by entertain
ments or contributions will be equally
divided among the several Fairgrounds.
No corlment other than the bald
statement that the board was forced to
beg, in order that the children might
be accommodated was made, the
recommendation stating that Congress
had failed to care for the Fairgrounds.
The matter was referred to the play
ground committee of the board.
Permission was given Central High
School to accent 2 water-Color paint
ing from the Womans League, of the
National Junior Republic, In recogni-
ton of the services done by several of

result of an investigation OF allegations

ALL EYES UPON NEVADA.

"Nevada is the only state left in
means stands a chance in business, ,
remarked a citizen the other day
Twenty, or even ten years ago, an
energetic man of small capital could
make money in any of the Rocky
mountain states, but that day is past
Today it is impossible for a man to
start in any sort of business with a
less capital than from 100000 to $50,
000.o
The above statement is true, and
from present indications it will not be
ten years before it will apply to Neva
da, as well. While the state has
varied resources, in the long run all
prosperity depends upon the land, and
that is being taken up rapidly. The
State Publicity Bureau is weekly re
e%eiving hundreds of inquiries from the
homeless of the congested districts OF
the country in regard to our vacant
lands, and with the coming of spring
there will probably be thousands OF
nomeseekers come to the state wi /
the purpose of settling here. With in
dustry and proper farming methods
the tens of thousands of acres of va
cant lands can be made to yield abun
dant crops, which will add greatly t.
the general wealth and happiness.
There are at present many residents
of the state who do not own an acre
of ground. They should at once take
steps to acquire a homestead before
the land is all taken by outsiders.
