CHEMISTS URGED
TO HELP DISTRICT
Delegates Told City's Needs
Better Met if Congress
Hears From Nation.

| The plight of the votelesS people
| of Washington was explained to 100
leading chemical engineers of. the
! country at a luncheon of the Institute
| of Chemical Engineers in the Ebbitt
| Hotel today by Engineer Commits
| sioner j. Franklin Bell.
He urged them to take an interest
/ in the National Capital when they got
back home for the reason that Con-
greSs fails to give favorable con-
Sideration to measures which would
benefit District residents if it is felt
that hostility or Indifference to such
measures is displayed by constituents
in the various states.
Tells Plight Of ID. L.
The people of the District of Co
lumbia have no vote, said CommiS-
sioner Bell. The District is con-
trolled by the nation through the
Congress. If the nation is not inter
eSted in trying 20 make it's Capital
what it should be, the Capital suf-
fers. The people of the District of
Columbia may initiate measures and
advance plans for it's betterment, but
if Congress thinks that the remainder
plans, or that it is Indifferent. Con-
gress is not likely to support the
measures.
He urged engineers. as professional
men, to come to the front as munich
pal leaders. He asked that they dis
MAY the same type of interest as is
being shown by lawyers and business
men.

BETTER CHILD CARE
URGED BY GRAYSON
Admiral Tells Women Good
Colt Now Receives More
Attention.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
DANVILLE, Va, December 5.--Ad-
dressing the Women's Current Event
Club here today, Rear Admiral Cary
T. Grayson. former President Wilson's
personal physician. declared he
thought that. by and large. a thor
oughbped racing colt received bet
ter training than an average child.
DR.. Grayson took for his topic "Hered-
fty and Training" and emphasized
the need of moral and mental train
ing for the children of today In OF
der to sustain the civilization OF the
future.
'''The future of civilization depends
on what our children do" said DR..
Grayson, "and what they do depends
on what they are. Teach each chllu
how to enjoy life sensibly, TO earn
livelihood, for service to others and
to assist in reordering a disordered
world. For these purposes the youth
should be trained to play heartily ana
play fair; to work industriously and
enjoy work; to be unSelfish and keep
his life orderly. Parents should
carry the chief responsibility and not
delegate it all to others. There is no
satisfactory substitute for the home
in any life. Modern homes break up,
parents travel much, they overelab-
crate their own lives and the lives of
their children; often they send them
away to school and have little per-
sonal supervision of their education.
also, a child brought up without
religion is unframed. Send your chill
dren to Sunday school where religion
is taught in simple ways they can un-
derStand. At home, see to it that
the child says his prayers and be-
comes acquainted with the Bible.
with such a foundation, the chill
dren of today should make the Amer
ica of the future Il country in which
our old traditions still live and our
unchanging ideals still guide us
q country of people who have caught
the contagion of good health, who
stand straight. shoot straight and
think straight people in whom
rests the hope OF the world

Fought to End 1923 Ca1,n01,iisn,,
Says Cooper, Insurgent Leader
Denies Obstruction,
Vas Purpose of
Struggle.
Claims Liberalizi,,g q
of Congress Is
Essential.
BY FREDERIC WILLIAM VILE.

I'VE have stacked arms in the fight
for the speakership. but have not
abandoned our fight for principle
said Representative Henry Allen
Cooper of Wisconsin to the writer to-
publican majority.
The veteran congressman from Ra-
cine, who was the insurgents candi-
Date for Speaker Gillett's chair. is
confident their resistance to the ma
jority's will through eight successive
ballots is destined to accomplish It's
purpose. That purpose. according to
Representative Cooper. was not to
block the wheels of government in
any dogin the manger spirit. 1t was
primarily designed, he says, to call
public attention to the archaic and
arbitrary machine rule" under which
the business Of the House is now COM
Quoted
"Cannonism. 1928 model" Repre-
sentative Cooper contended, lis the
issue at which we so-called insur-
gents are fitting. The ignorance of
garding procedure in the House of
Representatives is appalling. The
impression is widespread that when
'Cannonism' was pulverized, the gov
ernance of the House was democra-
tiZed. That is notoriously not the
case. The exact contrary is the sit
uation. In the old days the House
was run by the Speaker with the aid
and connivance Of a Speaker-bossed
committee on rules.
Under the rules of subsequent
Congresses, including the Sixty
seventh. which are now to remain in
force for another month. the House
is controlled by committees which
derive their power from a handful
almost as omnipotent in its authori-
ty as the discredited Cannon regime.
Determined I'm Fight.
The insurgents have set their
faces like flint against any perpetu-
alton OF such n system. We believe
the country will approve and ap-
plaud our action when it is under
stood. We are not bandits, or an
archists, or 'revolutionists.' Epithets

this week. and they VIII be equally
fruitiess when the time comes, a
month hence, to renew the discussion
now temporarily abated. The princi-
pie for which we are contending will
not be surrendered in any circum-
stances The cries of wreck ers'
which have been sent up against us
this week, remind me of a personal
experience in the republican national
convention of 1908. From my place
in the Wisconsin delegation 1 arose
TO propose the adoption OF plank
in our platform, calling for the pop
ular election OF United States sena-
tors. That's socialism Down with
socialism" Were the shouts sent up
from various sections of the stalwart
convention. Yet three years later,
popular election OF senator's was in
corporated into the Constitution of
the United States. One of the grim
NEST foes of the proposal in 1908
was Henry Cabot Lodge who has
lived to be a triumphant beneficiary
OF the system he then SO bitterly
opposed"

the insurgents have invited violent
public opposition by holding up the
