United States government to M q

which an Independent Philippine re-
public would be founded.
Philippine independence can, and

other rauch more pressing business in

reassembles will be expected to trans
act 1t.
Meanwhile. and later, the Filipinos
would do well to assist Gen. Wood In

legitimate opportunities now arising

individuals. whether Washingtonians
or not Is q matter Of no consequence,
have been supplying bonds for those

ice the bondsmen have charged very

put a severe dent in the bank roll of
the dealer in contraband beverages.
In many instances 1t has compelled
some Of the smaller fry to seek divers
means Of replenishing their bank ac-
counts to an extent where they could
purchase new stocks OF liquors. 1t
appears that several bondsmen, after
having put up the necessary collateral
for their clients. have offered to re-
finance tho bootlegger on condition
that they would he given a larg" '.a:e

"a good-size cut-in." Now for the

who has been drawing down his share
Of profits in these Illicit goods and
also secured a heavy premium for
furnishing the bond. quietly causes
the prohibition agents to be tipped off
as to the activities of certain boot
leggers. with the result that once
moro the violator Of the law Is taken
into custody and Is compelled to give
an additional bond. The result has
been that some Of the bondsmen have
completed q circle Of continuous in

citizen holds a brief for a violator of
the law. yet one cannot admire the

An Industrial Opportunity.

The National Capital, the most
beautiful city in the world, has always
been carefully guarded against indus,
trial encroachment. This never has
been and never should be factory
city.
But Virginia, over the river from
Washington. does want industries, is
ideally situated and conditioned to be
an important industrial center and
is seeking the cooperation of Wash
inston civic, business and financial
leaders toward this end.
At the very outset it must be made
plain that TO get cooperation from the
National Capital there must be every
precauticn that the proposed indus
trial development shall in no way en-
croach upon the washington beauti-
full" idea. The skyline and ristas down
the historic Potomac and up the his
toric Potomac and toward the beautiful
Virginia mountains must be pre-
served.
Alexandria business and civic lead
ers and committee representing Ar
linston county's board of governors
are considering the organization of a
Rig industrial development committee.
which will employ the best industrial
engineers obtainable 10 chart out the
proposed development.

for cooperation to the board Of d.
rectors of the Washington Board of
Trade. The next night he is to ad-
dress. for the same purpose, the di-
rectors Of the Washington Chamber
of Commerce.
The plan proposed is to organize a
committee Of Virginia and District Of
columbia leaders, headed by the
strongest man who can be found, to
push this big industrial scheme. This
contemplates harnessing Great Falls
for industrial power, getting the big
railroads to advertise the Virginia ter
ritory adjacent to the railroads and the
water front as the industrial zone Of
the National Capital and generally
to make it one Of the great industrial
regions of the country.
Prominent Washington financiers
and big business men are interested
in this proposal. They are ready to
give the heartiest cooperation If 1t
will in no way disfisure Washington
beautiful or mar its vicinage. Wash
ington business would profit much
through such an industrial develop
1nent, but will refuse to consider such
profit if it has to come at the cost Of
sacrificing one bit of the esthetic
beauty Of the Capital city. it's outlook
or it's entrances, or if the historic
banks of the Potomac, especially
from the War College to Great Falls.
are to be sacrificed to commercialism.
So the Washington business inter-
ests will study the Virginia proposal
carefully, but cautiously, ready to
help in good cause. but determined
to oppose anything that threatens dis
figuring encroachment.
Beautiful vicinage for Washington
must come before a bigger business
for Washington.

SO pure and sweet that no great mas
ter has ever painted such a Madonna.
1t had the psychic arch over the
brow. Then came others with a GER
on the other side. but none so clear
that could positively swear to it.
Capt. Widdecombe had the same ex-
iperience-many faces. but none surely
recognizable. Mr. Keedick was more
fortunate.
1 suddenly heard him cry with the
gasping note of extreme surprise and
emotion, "Shackleton.' The great
explorer, who had been an intimate
friend, had suddenly appeared with
his face as clear as life and within
a few inches of his own. Those who
