SCOUT PRESIDENTS MESSAGE

The war is over. Peace Is here. Our
ninth anniversary finds scouting
stronger than ever. There are more
scouts, more leaders, more troops.
Again we look forward to year in
the man-maklng out-of-dOors.
The greatest need Of n nation Is for
men--not the mush-and-molly tort, but
the self-rclinnt, red-blooded man; the
man who has lived in the open all
seasons of the year, who likes the
zest OF the winter winds and can en-
JOY the heat of the blazing sun; the
man who loves the hikes and camps,
the open-air games and self-cooked
meals, the stars, the trees. the birds,
and in fact every phase Of scouting,
as 1t brings him In touch with natures
wondrous revelation Of God.
The nation has need Of more such
former president. whose recent death
the nation mourns and now memo
rallies, and whose greatness of char
acter and achievement were largely
made possible by his active outdoor
life.
Let us dedicate ourselves to a year
Of intensive outdoor scouting, such as
that great man lived, so that the life
of our nation may be vltallzed by more
men such as he.
Several outstanding obligations rest
upon every scout. His life from day
to day should, first Of all, be an I'M
broken chain of good turns and acts
that square with the scout chain and
law--each AIT as link, each link so
strong that the chain of the scouts
life will hold whatever the strain of
trial or burden. Furthermore, each
life should be conferred In body made
so strong with rigorous contact with
the out-of-doors that illness and weak.
enlng habits find no place In his life
and he will ultimately develop into a
robust, scoutlike, thorough-golng
American citizen.

in negotiating for the purchase by the
government of property in Washington
valued at $4.20O.OOO and received part
of the commission for the sale. were
made before the house rules committee
today by Representative McFadden.
Republican. of Pennsylvania.
Mr.. McFa -en asked that the COM
mittee report out his resolution pro-
viding for appointment OF a special
house committee to investigate the Of
ficial conduct of the comptroller and
announced that if the investigat'
was not ordered he would prefer
charges the floor of the house and
ask for Williams's imprisonment.
Utterly False, Says williams.
Comptroller williams, in state
ment today, said the charges made by
Mr.. McFadden were utterly without
foundation" and "a falsehood from
start to finish" He declared he had
no interest in the sale or the Arling-
ton property to the government and
received no compensation in connec-
ton with it.
Evidence that the comptroller
made use of his office for private gain
is in my possession" Mr.. McFadden
said. 1T is very complete. 1t shows
that he was involved in a fi..-lcial way
with purchase by the e--..nent OF
the Arlington hotel property for
$4,2O0,000. He aided his brother-in-
law in negotiating the sale and / am
prepared to prove that he received
part of the commission"

Mr.. McFadden declared he also
could prove that Mr.. Williams had
taken part in other transactions "of a
most serious nature"
Mr.. McFadden told Representative
Pou, Democrat, North Carolina, he
would rather not" go into details OF
the charges before the committee now.
Il do not wish TO make public any
more than have to at this time" he
said. ITO do so would seriously in
terfere with my purpose. l have every
reason to believe that discriminating
evidence is being destroyed. At the
right time 1 will bring forward wit
nesses whose character will prove the
i soundness of information they give"
Result of Grievance?
Mr.. Pou questioned the advisability
of ordering the investigation, declar-
ing it would "injure the dignity of the
rules committee" to take favorable
action on every resolution of such a
nature brought forward by q mem
Der of congress who had a grievance
against some public official.
''On the other hand" said Repre-
sentative Rodenberg. Republican. Illi-
nois, ''I consider the charges so seri-
GUS that they cannot be ignored. IL

peachment of the comptroller"
