Anacostia, upon the completion of
his present leave, the War Depart

At the beginning of the round

For several weeks Major Martin
was believed dead. He finally made

his comrades had gone ahead with

Major Martin is a graduate of
Purdue University. He accepted a
commission in the army from civil

His flying training was obtained at

Plans to furnish all new Gov
eminent department buildings with
branch libraries are being studied
by James A. Wetmore, supervising
architect of the Treasury, who is
now drawing up plans for the first
years public building program.
The idea is said to have the APP
prevail OF Maj. U. s. Grant III,
acting chairman of the Public
Buildings Commission and other
members OF that body.
Among other plans which are
being considered to make the new
departmental buildings among the
finest structures of their kind in
the world, is scheme to allow
automobile parking space under
the buildings for employees.
This plan is said TO have struck
a snag, however, in that most of
the land on which the buildings
will be erected is very low, over
which the river used to rise, and
through which creeks ran, and
officials believe 1t will be difficult
enough to make adequate founda-
tions without providing additional
floor space under ground for autos.

IN November been laid by the
Senate's slush fund inquiry into
the Illinois primary, it was gen
orally believed in political circles
here today, even among Republican
leaders.
The fight upon Smith, 1t was
predicted, will be based upon the
contribution Of $2O6, 235 to his cam
paign by heads of public utility
corporations even while he was
serving and continues to serve
as chairman on the Illinois COM
merce commission.
Although friends of Smith deny
he knew about the contributions,
the political seers believe these
gifts viii cost him seat in the
Senate.
The Ware fight. according to the
same political oracles. will be based
partly on the expenditure of some
100000 In his behalf to win the
Republican nomination in Pennsyl-
vania. but chiefly on the refusal Of
Thomas w. Cunningham of Phila-
delphia, to tell where he obtained !
a $4,000 contribution handed over
to the Ware fund.

the opinion of officials here.
Steps probably will be taken BY
the government, following the
successful negotiations with
Great Britain, to prevent SNUG
glers obtaining shipping papers
from the countries, it was
learned today.
Officials In Conference
Officials said that following con.
eerences with ambassadors and
ministers from several countries in
Washington informal agreements
had been obtained whereby these
nations win cooperate to prevent
issuance of shipping permits where
the vessels were to be used obvi-
ously for smuggling rum into United
States.
Many of the American backed
rum runners were flying the Brit
fish flag.
Under the new management care
win be exercised by that govern
ment to prevent this violation OF
Brisist shipping laws.
Officials believed, however, that
unless similar agreements are
reached with most OF the important
nations, and the smaller Latin
American countries, smugglers.
foiIed In their attempt 70 obtain
British shipping papers will seek
permits elsewhere.
No formal attempt has been made
as yet for negotiation of rum agree.
Inents with Germany, Belgium,
France and the South American ma
tons Such an effort may be neces
sary il the British government
makes serious effort to tighten
up on rum smugglers, according to
officials.
They explained that the SNUG,
glers simply would transfer their
allegiance to another flag and con-
tinue operations.
An interchange of information
relative to violators of shipping |
restrictions or known rum runners
and smugglers of aliens, and mar
