CAPITAL TORN OVER NEW
BATHING BEACH PROPOSAL

famous in the world. You can
readily see what collection of
parked automobiles would do there,
particularly on Saturdays and Sun
days. There would surely be trouble"
The problem of bathing beach
for the city's colored third has been
complicated by the fact that re-
representatives. of the negro have been
resolute in refusing to consider
beach in any location except along
the Speedway or in Potomac Park.
The white mans bathing beach
is in the Tidal Basin, they say, so
why not the negroes? Isn't this
the capital Of the United States?
And isn't the black man the equal
Of the white under this government?
BY this very reason, they choose,
as particularly appropriate, the site
across from the majestic marble
memorial to the Great Emancipation.
Sentimentally, the white popula-
ton hasn't any answer to this argu-
ment or any similarly appropriate
alternative as to the site.
But practically, the proposition
of this bathing beach is one that
is stirring the racial prejudices Of
the town as nothing has for decades.
If it is to be settled without
soreness, it will require all the tact,
diplomacy and common sense those
in auth GRITTY here can muster.
Strange are the anomalies in
politics. Jim Watson of Indiana,
assistant leader in the Senate, arch
foe of the direct primaries is fear
full that the coming session Of the
Hoosier legislature may repeal the
direct primary and thus contribute
to his overthrow in 1926.
This, because of the fact that
Watson's enemies in Indiana, in
Guiding Ex-Senators New and Bcve-
ridge, have their defcnces so well in
hand that they might be able to
control state convention against
jim when he comes up for renomina-
ton.
So for the present, feeling his
best bet lies in direct appeal to
the voters, jim wants the primary
retained.

HARRY Il. HUNT
NEA Service Writer

Washington, Jan. Ga racial
question in the national capital,
which promises to grow to szablc
proportions. has developed around
a proposal for a bathing beach for
the city's colored population on the
Tidal Basin opposite the Lincoln
Memorial.
To understand just what this
means, it is that approximately one
third, or more than 100000 of Wash
ington's Inhabitants are colored.
1t is necessary also to understand
that the point at which it is pro-
posed to build this beach is immed-
ately opposite the Potomac Park
golf boulevard where the city's elite
prefer to drive on hot days to get
the comparatively cool breezes that
watt across the water from the Vir-
ginia shore.
The thought of bathing beach
at this point, which would. be fire.

poorer folks Of color, is enough to
give lot Of capital fashionables

say. Awful Dreadful! What is
our capital coming to, anyway?
Voicing this viewpoint, Mrs. John
D. Sherman, president of the General
Federation Of Women's Clubs. has
written Secretary Of War Weeks
under whose jurisdiction this park
Improvement would come, demand
ing that he take a firm stand"
against the proposal.
Mrs. Sherman foresees grave in
ternational difficulties should the
beach be developed at this point,
as in doing so it would be neces-
sary to cut down or remove a number
of the cherry trees presented the
capital 20odd years ago by the
Mikado of Japan.

Mrs. Dennis Dahl, pioneers of this
section, was found frozen to death
about three quarters of a mile from
her farm home. She had gone to
Rugby, and returning to Barton by

to her home, about seven miles from
here. She had evidently become eX-

she had decided to visit relatives at

Official recognition by the federal
government of this "Army of Nature
Lovers" came last summer in the CALI
ing by President Coolidge of the Ma
ttonal Conference on Outdoor Recrea-
tion at Washington. The federal gov
ernment's position is now one of sup
port and cooperation. Various com
missions and committees are making
nt. ion-wide survey of outdoor recre-
alton resources of all kinds with y
view to closer cooperation.
One of the immediate results of the
organization of the Recreation Confer
ence is an investigation by an official
commission this summer of scenic
areas in the Blue Ridge, Great Smoky

When Your Headphones
Should Have Attention

Headphones that have been in serv-
ice for a year or more should be in
spected by removing the cap and
diaphragm. The mounting screws hold
ing the horseshoe magnet in place
should be tightened. Remove any dirt
or particles of steel that may be col
lecting on pole pieces. The diaphragm
should be inspected to ascertain if it
has become bent and If so, it should
be replaced with a new one. The
screws holding the telephone cord tips
should be tightened, but not removed,
and reversed, as this will disturb the
polarity of the unit, affecting signals.
If the diaphragm has become weak
ened and touches the pole pieces 1t
should be turned over on its reverse
side, which will correct the trouble.

Radio Hints That Will
Be of Interest to Fans

Switches on set should be kept
clean.
Whenever possible, run the aerial
over vacant lot.
Output from every tube goes from
plate and filament.
Copper aerial wires will sag con-
siderably in warm weather.
A crystal detector cannot be used
In a regenerative hookup.
The plate voltage is too high when
a soft blush glow appears in the
tubes.
A piece of emery cloth tied in the
rubber end Of a lead pencil makes a
good socket-prong cleaner.
One of the great causes of inter-
receivers.
Cat howls in a set are either caused
by too much regeneration or not be-
ing tuned close enough.
Loud speakers are made of fibre.
brass, aluminium, cast iron, nodded
wood mache, copper, nodded bakeIite,
pyralin, vulcanized composition, lead
ed steel, parchment felt, thorite COM
position, hard rubber and radon.
A one-tube set has great possibili-
ties.
Cores of amplifying transformers
should be grounded.
Reverse the ticker leads of a re-
generative set If it does not oscillate.
Use good insulators and solder all
connections. The lower the resistance.
the stronger the signals.
Soldering to fixed condenser is
dangerous as the heat may affect the
insulation, thereby changing the ca
pacity of the condenser and many
times short-circuiting 1t.
Do not subject telephones to high
potentials such as testing batteries
with them, They are intended to re-
spond to feeble currents and strong
currents may burn them out.
To find the cause of noises in the
receiver, disconnect the aerial and
ground. If the noise continues, it may
be caused by loose connection, de-
fective batteries, or poor contact at
some point

riman section of the Palisades Inter-
state park along the Hudson, where
hundreds of welfare organizations
give New York boys and girls breath
of fresh air and taste of country
joys.
The nature-lover, up to about ten
years ago was an easy-going person.
He was content to enjoy nature in his
own way. The "silent places" were
fast disappearing, to be sure, but he
had ten or a dozen national parks
which were bits of the original wilder
ness and wild-life sanctuaries, dedi-
Gated to the American people forever.
So he went on his way, complacent
and unafraid.
Congress changed this disposition
overnight by opening up the national
parks to commercial invasion under
the water-power act. Thereupon the
nature-lovers sent out a nationwide
rs. O. s." They first forced congress
to reverse itself and exempt the na-
tional parks from the operation of the
act. Next they proceeded to organize
an army of defense. Finally they en-
tered upon a constructive campaign
which has made outdoor recreation in
it's various phases one of the livest
nonpolitical issues of the day. This
"Nature-Lovers' Army" now numbers
about 100000 men and women, mem
bers of more than 1876 organization,
Here are some of the more impor-
tant things that have come about since
war paint on:
The following national parks have
been established: Hawaii, including
three famous volcanoes; Lassen Vol
canic in California; Mount Mckinley
in ALASKA; Grand Canyon in Arizona ::
Lafayette on the island Of Mount Des-
ert, Maine; Zion in. Utah (including
Bryce canyon).
National monuments to the number
of fourteen have also been established
by Presidential proclamation.
Congress has established the nation
al park service, in control of the ma
tional parks. Previously the manage
ment of the national parks was vested
in several clerks in various bureaus
of the Interior department; the nation
81 Hoh
instead of a great national asset.
The "See America First" movement
has been developed and carried to in
creasing success. This summer more
than two million Americans will visit
the national parks and monuments
and keep half billion good American
dollars at home and In circulation.
