May Come Up Today.
On motion OF Representative Bian-
ton, seconded by Representative
Rathbone, l. favorable report on thii
bill was ordered When the question
arose regarding whether 1t would be
possible to get this measure passed
Representative Blanton said that the
Speaker, he believed, would recognise
Chairman Reed to take this bill up
today, out of order, and Col. Sheriff.
was advised to see the Speaker and
the House leader in order to expedite
such action. .
Col. Sheriff. then discussed the bill
for creation for a Federal plannin g
commission. He said that he recog-
nized fully the necessity for having
q definite plan which would prevent
terrible destruction such as he has
witnessed in Washington during the
past few years, but that he opposed
the bill as drawn.
Wants BODY ERlarHeA.
Col. Sheriff. agreed with a. sns8es-
ten by Representative Underhi1 that
the National Park Commission should
be enlarged into 4 National Park and
City Commission with Axpert ad-
visers to absorb the duties proposed
In this measure.

Sheriff. explained at length the
plans for development of the National
Capital and the need for co-ordinat-
ing street, xoning, building, survey
Ing and other activities to conform
with the general plan and he also
explained in reply to questions, the
divided ownership of land between
the Capitol and White House, and
along the sits OF the Mall. He was
asked to draw 4 bill covering the
government acquisition of the neces-
sary sites along the Mall which he
estimated would cost about s15,000,-
900, after he had explained the pro-
posed development OF B street from
the Capitol. which would give q
beautiful government thoroughfare
from the Capitol to Arlington Ma
tional Cemetery across the proposed
new Arlington, Memorial Bridge.

TOURING CAR is
BIGGEST SELLER

Despite the growing tendency
toward the closed type of car, the
touring car is the biggest selling au-
tomobile in service. Severe weather
gives closed cars great sales impetus
and in the north sections Of the
country where the climate is rigor-
Gus, the closed types are favorites.
In fair weather" districts, however.
the preference for open cars of fam
lily size is sufficiently pronounced to
turn the balance for the entire ma
tion.
In this connection reports of the
Ford Motor Company show a demand
for Touring cars which is unusual
for this season of the year and which
calls for a production of 100000 of
these cars during October
The Touring Car always has been
the most popular in the Ford line.
The exceptional demand at the pres
ent time, however, may be account
ed for by the new features of COM
fort and convenience which have
been incorpated in the improved
types.
Addition of door at the drivers
left, storm curtains which afford
protection and open with
he doors, greater leg room and a
more attractive appearance in the
general lines of the car have all con-
ributed to bringing increased pop
llarity to the five-passenger open
ype car.

HOW THE AMERICAN CREED" WAS MADE

One of the features of the ob- servation of the American Legion's "Americanization Week" was a re- cital by school children, all over the country, of a brief creed, com- posed four years ago, in the course of a nationwide competition. The city of Baltimore offered a thousand dollars, as a prize, to the successful contestant. The winner was William Tyler Page, and his brief creed has, since the day of it's acceptance by the contest committee, become fa- miliar to thousands of school chil- dren throughout the country. It is sometimes abbreviated, but in it's authorized version, it runs as fol- lows:
 "I believe in the United States of America as a government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a de- mocracy in republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union, one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice, and hu- manity, for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.
 'I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to sup port it's Constitutions; to obey it's laws; to respect it's flag; and to de- fend it against all enemies."- Digest.

 A total of $1,3O5,OOo already has been appropriated for the railroad this year.

HERRING REGULATIONS

The fast changing herring regula- tions promulgated by the Bureau of Fisheries seem at last to be stabil- ized. Summarized they are as fol- lows:
 In Southeastern Alaska, the closed season for herring begins March 1st and continues till May 1st of each year.
 In addition thereto it is unlawful for herring to be caught in any area which is closed to salmon fish ing.
 The text of the new regulations is as follows:
 "In Southeastern Alaska area, commercial fishing for herring opened except from March 1 to April 30, both dates inclusive.
 "The waters near Sitka within a line from Halibut Point to Cape Baranof open also from March 15 to April 15, both dates inclusive.
 "Kanalku Bay on Admiralty island closed throughout year to herring fishing
 "In Prince William Sound area open season extended 15 days to November 16.
 'Ir all areas except during her ring close seasons and except from June 1 to October 1, both dates inclusive, herring may be taken in waters closed throughout the year to salmon fishing"
 This is quite change from the first rulings wherein the Burea of Fisheries permitted herring fish ing only during July 1st to Septem- Der 18th.
 The correction of this blunder was the result of protests made by Alaskans. If the Bureau of Fish cries would listen to other protests against their regulations which are just as much blunder and more hurtful to us commercially, there would be some hope for this Terri tory.
