CHICAGO, June 90 LP).-Bodies of
3S Chicagoans who were victims of the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
wreck at Hackettstown, n. J., last
Tuesday morning We're returned to the
city today for burial.
All but three of the bodies had been
claimed by relatives tonight, two of
the five unknown dead having been
identified during the day. Ernest
Poschl, a 72-year-old sailor. and Mrs.
Angeline Mangelson, both of Chicago,
were the two identified.
Scenes of painful confusion were
witnessed in the railroad station as
more than 100 relatives and friends
moved among the long rows of wooden
boxes claiming bodies.
Most of the victims left the city less
than a week ago on a vacation excur-
sion to Germany.

regional committee as Is planned can
this be done, and I will certainly give
! 1t every support possible.
II have not considered any definite
plans for working OUT the scheme
leaving 1t to those who now have the
matter in direct charge, but 1 will give
| them every cooperation they need
from the State government for devel-
oping this great and beautiful north

the grandest scale.
Holds ZOning Needed.
Arlington county, now is a city. as
l have pointed out. 1t is developing
| rapidly and the Zoning and other de-
vefopment should be taken in hand
now, and 1 am quite In favor of It.
There are hundreds of beautiful homes
going up there now. You cannot go
anywhere in the section without hav-
ing a home in view. So. 1 say, it Is
really a city.
You can develop a county the same
way you could anything within the
corporate limits of a town, and 1t
should be done. The State can pass
| law giving the county the necessary
authority to zone, cut streets and
make restrictions. as is done in the
corporate limits of town. The coun-
ty supervisor is really a city manager
and can be charged with the duty of
carrying a scheme into effect.
The regional committee represent
ed by the planning committees of Vir-
ginia, Maryland and the District of
Columbia could map out their devel-
opment schemes. and then the county
authorities. backed by the State law,
could carry them out. l think that
there could be a committee appointed
of. say, two men and one woman to
serve with the regional committee as
representatives of the county and
State and this committee, working in
visor or city manager clothed with the
| authority, could carry it out.
Favors Early Action.
II think that the scheme should be
| worked out promptly, so that all of
| the bodies could begin now on their
| planning in order that disorderly de-
velopment could be nipped in the bud.
So / am ready and willing to recon-
| mend to the Legislature the adoption
| of law which will give prompt and
full authority for coming, park, high
| way, transportation and water and
| sewerage development to make Arling-
| ton County and even the adjacent
| counties a part of the grand metro.
politan District of Columbia.
by full cooperation this can be
brought about and when this time
| comes and the plans are laid Virginia
will be ready to do everything to con-
| form to the outlines Of the great
regional development committee. The

being now, right now is the time to

CHINA GROWS QUIET

II Rioting Subsidies.
By the Associated Press.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 20-The
Chinese situation, inspired and pro-
NOTED by anti-foreign agitation, today
showed signs of developing into a
purely diplomatic and economic strug-
gle.
Reports of disorders today were
fewer than for any day in the past
two weeks Practically the only dis
orders were between Chinese, them
selves, such as the kidnapping of Chi
neSe workers by strikers at Shanghai.
A single exception was noted at Can
ton,- where the cashier of a Japanese
hospital, carrying $4,000 cash which
he had just drawn from a bank for
use by the hospital, was shot. This,
however. was said to have been the
work of bandits and not a political
matter.
The shooting was indicative, how
ever, of the unsettled conditions in
Canton, where the former lieutenan
of DR.. Sun Yat-Sen are trying to
establish a stable government after
several years of intermittent militar-
ism and squeezing" of business in
terests by Sundry tax collectors. Their
task IS proving difficult, especially in
view of the antiforeign agitation
which has Crept into South China as a
reflection of the disorders at Shanghai.

A general strike at Canton against
British. French and Japanese employ
ers-easily a majority of the foreign

seamen has curtailed the steamer

The diplomatic phases of the strug-

chinese foreign office, replying to a
note from representative of the proto-
col powers dealing with the trouble at
Shanghai, declared, with the excep-
ton OF the killing of one British sub

should be at the direct fault of the
foreign authorities themselves. not

generations shall not have justifica-
tion to lay at our doors the terrible
indictment of shortsightedness and
neglect"
The fact that Arlington County is
the Gateway to the South" the
committee points out, and because of
its proximity to the National Capital,
are the prime reasons why great
boulevards should be established in
terlocking the two areas. 1t is ex-
pected that the question of boule-
wards will be the first and foremost
concern Of the regional body after
organization is completed.
Virginia Only Entrance.
The committee feels that the en-
trance to Virginia from Washington
is not only most important from
local standpoint, but is by reason of
its peculiar geographical conditions
about the only entrance to the South
from the thickly populated area of
the North and Middle West. These
facts, the committee points out furth-
er emphasize the necessity for
broad and comprehensive system of
highways and boulevards reaching
out from the Memorial and other
bridges, which until now have been
regarded as local approaches.
The committee calls attention to the
fact that three great driveway pro-
posals are now passing through the
process of development and the re-
gional body should put forth every eff
fort to push these projects. They
are the Mount Vernon Boulevard, the
Lee Highway and the Jefferson Boule-
ward.
Action has already been taken by
the Arlington County Civic Fedora
ton looking to the development of
plan of growth for the embryo CITY
which is rapidly rising on the beauti.
full hills of Virginia in full view of the
Nations Capital. What L'Enfant,
under Washington and Jefferson. did
for the City of Washington more than
century ago. some man, or group of
men, will surely accomplish for the
city which is now Arlington County,
II the plans of the Civic Federation
are realized.
Two Bodies Formed.
The federation has created two com.
mittees of 10 members each to clothe
it's dreams in the habiliments of reality-
The Greater Arlington County Com
mlttee' is charged with the RESPONSE
bility of itself formulating a plan for
the physical growth and DEVELOPMENT

The number of replies was crafty
ing: the facts given We're inspiring.
First of all, everybody agreed that
Washington will steadily increase in
Importance. 1t is particularly inter.
esting to note the constant recurrence
of the term world capital To read
all of the remarks on this subject
would be largely repetition, but one
reply. from the Right Rev. Thomas j.
Shahan of the Catholic University, so
we'll summarizes this general feeling
that l shall read it to you:
1.-The city bids fair to grow steadily
in Importance, owing to the increase
of federal activities, local and general;
the development of patriotic spirit, the
growing attractiveness of the city
from several viewpoints and it's new
significance as the Capital of the fore
most nation of the world, with all that
such distinction implies.
In 80 years our suburb of Brook
land has grown from one house to
about seven or eight thousand souls.
The Catholic University of America
has grown from professors and 38
students to 100 professors and over
1000 students, including it's Summer
school. It's buildings have grown
from l to %. In this period an eX-
tensive rural section has been closely
knitted to the city. In 80 years three
or four Catholic parishes, quite popu-
lous, have grown up around the uni
versity, and every year Brookland and
Hyattsville, Md, are drawn more
closely together
But there are other interesting
facts brought out. We found that our
residents are wealthy"
