In reality this Typographical survey
of the United States is a tremendous
ly big and important job. It's so big
that after nearly fifty years Of work
it isn't half finished. It's so important
that the Sixty-eighth congress yielded
to a popular demand and agreed to
appropriate the necessary funds to fin
ish the job in twenty years And
here's the why and wherefore of it:
The geological survey is charged
under direction Of the secretary of
the interior with the classification of
the public lands and the examination
sources and mineral products of the
national domain. In conformity with
this authorization the geological sur
vey has been engaged in making a
geologic map Of the United States and
Alaska, involving both topographic
and geologic surveys -. -
George Otis Smith is director Of the
geological survey. He is a geologist
of note and man of affairs. He was
born in Maine in 1871. He is a col
lege man, has the right to wear the

scientific societies and the author of
government reports of papers and adj
dresses and of a book or two. He has
been director since 1907, with the ex-
ception of 1929, when he was a
member Of the United States coal
commission.
The geological survey has several
divisions and branches, among which
is the topographic branch, of which

been with the survey since 1909, ex-
cept during his World war service,
and took his present position In 1919.
The Importance of the completion
of the topographic survey lies in the
fact that the geological surveys

Coolidge Now Said to Be Urg-
ing Underwood 5iII-Jones
Plan Losing

Another outburst of oratory
tied up Muscle Shoals legislation
in the Senate today. Such were
the forensic displays that plans
of Administration leaders to get
a vote before nightfall apparently
were frustrated. 1t was now be-
lieved that final disposition could
not be made before next week.
The latest verbal fireworks
were set off by supporters of the
Norris Governmental ownership
bill who were hopeful that they
thus could win away enough votes
from the Underwood plan to de-
feat it, although previously it had
been accepted over the Norris
measure by an eleven-vote margin

NEW YORK, Jan. 1O.-An
Atlanta woman who acted as a
detective in her own behalf to-

he came to the garage. The

These are the questions which
have social circles in Washington

citement today.
Bought On Her Name.
Meanwhile police officials Of
Washington and Baltimore. hiding
behind cloak of secrecy, refuse to
divulge anything concerning the
case. Washington police are merely
cooperating with Baltimore police
in acceding to their desires to keep
everything from the newspapers.
However, this much was learned
today:
Mrs. Moore. using her maiden

gold bracelets valued at about 81 900.
Mrs Moore paid no cash for the
1ewelry. but was able to buy them
on the strength of her name. which
leads gossipers to feel that she
must be somebody"
After purchasing the two brace
let's, Mrs. Moore pawned one of
them for $500. it is said, and re-
tanned the other. which was valued
at about $1,000. The same day
she left town and was not heard
from again until her arrest today.

The lookout stated that Mrs.

was found in Los Angeles today.

Declaring that the letter sent

and the Washington Association
Of Building Owners and Man
ayers 'has apparently been COM
pletely misconstrued in some quar-
ters," Thomas =. FARRELL, presi-
dent Of the local board, today re-
iterated the Washington realtors
opposition to proposed rent legls-
lation.
Based On Press Reports.
The statement issued today was
apparently predicated upon reports
emanating from the White House
press conference yesterday after
noon to the effect that the Presi-
dent in appreciating the co-opera-
ton Of bankers and realtors in this
city understood that they would
support the proposed legislation.
"The letter, according to the
statement, was based solely on an
earnest desire Of group Of influ-
entail and representative business
men of Washington, to comply
with the suggestion attributed to
bankers join together in correcting
the evils of a few.

These men believe" continued
the statement. that they were
offering to the President construc-
tive and definite proposition to as
sure him that in the event rental
legislation is completely removed
these representative business men,
that by their organization, would
use every. possible means within
their power to correct any abuses
that may arise in the future in re-
spect to the rental conditions in the
city.
"It is inconceivable that our
letter can be misconstrued as an in
ference that these men who are SO
unalterably opposed to rental legis-
lation would cooperate in secur-
ing it.
Handicapped in Past.
Individual business men and
their organization who are willing
to give this assurance to the Presi.
dent for the future have been COM
pletely handicapped in the past by
the existence OF the Rent Commits
sion and the restriction of rental
legislation that has completely
taken out of their hands the con-
troll Of the situation"
The public statement was made
by Mr.. FARRELL after n meeting OF
the executive committee in the
Washington Real Estate Board s
offices today. It was not supple
mented bv further comment from
officials of the board.
An official spokesman for the
President declared the action con-
firmative Of what the Chief Execu-
tive had previously stated relative
