Construction Granted by
Officials.

Permit to proceed with construc-
tion of the George Washington Vic
tory Memorial on it's site at 9Th and
streets will be issued within a few
days. Lieut.. Col. c. o. Sheriff., in
charge of public buildings and
grounds, announced today.
Authority for procedure in the
project has been given through opin-
ions Of Attorney General Daugherty
and Acting Judge Advocate General
Hull of the Army, who held that the
George Washington Memorial Asso-
citation. under the law, could proceed
with construction. The decisions set
tied a controversy over the time limit
set by Congress for having work be-
gun two years after the closing of
the world war. They declared that
the war officially ended in 1921, and
extend the time to 1923 for raising
funds and beginning construction.
Col. Sheriff. announced he was in
forming the Tennessee branch of the
George Washington Victory Memorial
Association, that the official authority
and that the 100000 which had been
voted for an issue of bonds in that
state would be acceptable now. Mrs.
John F. Denney of Tennessee. chair
man Of the work in that state, had
written offering the proceeds from
the sale OF bonds. which would begin.
she said, as soon as the project was
clear and the time ripe for accept
ance of funds for actual building.
Several other states associations
already have plans for raising funds
1t is understood, and the announce
ment of the decisions of the Attorney
General and judge advocate general
1t Is believed, will greatly stimulate
activity.
Mrs. Henry F. Dimock of this city
president of the national associa-
tion. this morning expressed extreme
qualification that developments have
been entirely favorable, and said i'm
portant announcements concerning
the $S,000.000 memorial campaign
might be expected soon.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CHICAGO, March 29. Women
may smoke themselves to death,
as far as the Anti-Cigarette League
is concerned. 1t is interested
only in keeping boys from smok-
ing"
In these words Frank NJ. Fair
field, president of the board of
directors of the International Anti
Cigarette League. disclaimed re-
sponsibility for initiating agita-
ton, either in New York or else
where. against women smoking
In public places.
What the adult does is none Of
our concern" he added. THE
fiapper who blows rings through
her gold and ebony cigarette
holder; the mother who rocks the
cradle with one hand and flicks
the ashes from her cigarette with
the other, these are beyond our
jurisdictions We deplore their ac-
tions because of the influence on
the youth of our generation, but
we know better than to try to
legtslate morals into them. But
for the boys still at the impress
sionable age we feel there is hope
and we direct our efforts to save
them from the downward course
chosen by their mothers and elder
sisters"
However, the erroneous report
that Gotham had permanently
clapped the lid down on women
smoking in public has stirred up
agitation against such practices
that already had a good start here.

SEEK SUBSTITUTE
FOR JONES RIDER
House Conferees on District
Bill Suggest Three
Compromises.

Suggestions of a compromise for
the Jones rider to the District ap-
propriation changing the existing
fiscal relations of the District and the
federal government were being ad-
vanced by House members of the
conference committee today, while the
conference occupied itself with the
Senate amendments increasing va
rious items of appropriation carried
IN the bill.
No formal statement of the COM
promise proposals was made public.
but it is understood that they en-
brace:
1. Elimination of the Jones rider
proposal that the surplus of District
revenues. amounting to several mill
lions of dollars. shall be expended as
District revenues for the District.
2. Elimination of the proposal that
the first $4,000 of improvements on
any lot shall be exempt from taxa
tion.
3. An increase in the proposed $1.75
rate of taxation on real estate and
tangible personal property.
1t extremely doubtful, however.
it was said. that the Senate conferees
would agree to any such proposals.
The position of the Senate conferees.
it is understood, has been that if the
House members could suggest any
amendments to the Jones rider Inn
proving" it, then they might agree
to the amendments, but such pro-
posals as those now advanced are not
regarded as improving" the rider.
In consequence. It appeared today
that the conference might be dead
locked for a considerable time over
the matter of the Districts fiscal re-
lations.
The Jones rider eliminates the 60-4O
plan Of appropriating for the District,
as carried in the. House bill, and substi-
tutes an indeterminate plan, whereby
the revenues of the District are to be
used up first, to meet the expenses of the
District, and the federal government
is to make up any balance needed to
complete the appropriations. 1t makes
provision for using the surplus revenues
Of the District for the District; fixes
the tax rate at $1.75 and exempts the
first $4,000 Of improvements on real es-
tate from taxation.
The Sonferees had with them today
the Engineer Commissioner. Col. Keller.
and obtained from him information re-
garding various projects for which the
Senate inserted provision in the Dis
trica bill.

Sweeping Changes to Curb
Government Waste.

With a view to evolving a plan
bringing about a mobilization Of the

tion of statistics in the government
by placing this work under one CEN
trail head directly responsible to the
President, Roger w. Babson. statis-
tician of Boston, in cooperation with
Clarence N. Stone. has prepared a re-
port, which was presented to the
President today.
This plan is designed to supplement
the work of the joint congressional
commission engaged in planning a
reorganization of the government de-
partments by bringing about more
efficient grouping of departments and
the elimination of overlapping of de-
partmental authority. By the adop-
tion of the proposed plan it's COM

work of the government could be
more efficiently handled and that it
would then be possible for the gov

factorily to furnish information to
business men and newspapers through
out the country. By creating one nead
to handle the statistical work the pres
ent necessity Of consulting several de-
partments for certain statistical infor-

TURKS F[0UT|NG
ALLIED PROPOSALS

By the Associa ted Press.
LONDON, March 29.-The latest
news from Angora indicates a strong
majority against acceptance of the al
lies proposals for a near eastern set
tIement, says a Constantinople dis
patch to the Evening News today.
The main objection of the Turkish
nationalists is to the award of Adri-
anople and the Gallopoli peninsula
to the Greeks.
It is believed, asserts the dispatch,
that the entire settlement scheme will
probably be wrecked on this point.
French Endanger Plan.
The results of the near east con-
ference in Paris were declared by
British government officials today to
be- seriously endangered by what the
British officials term French encour-
aeement 10 the Turks to refuse the
Recommendations Of the foreign min
isters for a settlement of the difficult
ties between Turkey and Greece.
British officials declare the Turks
are being led to believe that the
a basis for mediation, and that addi-
tional concessions might be obtained,
whereas the British view is that the
last word concerning peace in the
near east has been spoken, and that
the belligerents must accept \ the
Paris terms If Franco-British rela-
tions are not to be further strained.
British leaders who have just re-
turned from Paris comment freely re-
garding the French attitude through
out the conference. their disregard
of the fate of the Christian minori-
ties and their open hostility to the
Armenians.
The English delegates to the Paris
conference say they have no assur-
ance that the Greeks will accept the
recommendations, but there is
nothing to be gained by further in
citement of the Turks toward renewal
of hostilities in Asia Minor this

SCIENCE TO TRY KNIFE TO- SAVE
REMAINING TWIN, IF JOSEPFA DIES

The mere separation, of flesh and
bone would be easy. according to
the physicians. but the effect of the
operation upon the mental and
nervous systems has been consid-
cred highly problematical.
Each Of the sisters has individual
heart, lungs and stomach. Josepfa.
who was stricken first, is most
desperately i'll. The disease was
communicated to Rosa. Until last
night the temperature and pulse
of the twins had been virtually
identical. But last night Josepfa's
temperature mounted to 80 and
her pulse to 100. while Rosa's tenn
perature and pulse remained about
normal at 50 and 85. respectively.
An attorney has been at the
twins bedside, ready to. write
their wills should they become
conscious. Rosa's twelve-year-old
son Frantz and the mothers brother
Frank remain constantly at the
bedside.

CAMPAIGN FOR CHURCH
GIVING IS LAUNCHED

awaken the conscience and intelli-
gence Of the people of the Protestant
Episcopal church to the needs set
out in the program adopted at the
Portland general convention, there
by raising the average of regular
giving throughout the communion, is
the main object in view in the ma
ton wide campaign to be conducted
wholly within the ranks OF the
church. according to a statement by
Chicago headquarters of the demo-
mination.
Results of the campaign in the
three years now closing encourage
church leaders in the belief that the
ensuing three years will be equally
successful, says the statement, quot
ing the secretary of the field de-
partment.
In the lightweight diocees of the
church in the United states the
work of informing our people of the
convention program and explaining
the educational methods to the lead
ers already is going forward con-
tinues the statement. "Our reports
show enthusiasm and determination
that will go for another big advance
in the missinorary, educational and
social service fields"
The program, which fixed bud
get of S21,0O0,000 for the next three
years work, will support 5000 mis-
sionaries in America and throughout
the world and carry on the work of
religious and social service to which
the church is committed. a forward
program also was adopted involving
an additional $S,400,000 OF which
eight percent will be spent IN the

budget is to be raised by quotas in
the three years ending 1925.
