Gil Brings Riches, But No

By A. b. CHAPLIN

UNIIE sudden riches thai oil

G7-year-old woman who has little

does her own housework. wears
bingham dresses. refuses TO ride in
FAN automobile or travel outside of
her county

more. But probably this is because
there is no longer any blowing TO be
done. Eleven oil derricks are scat
tered over her land. pumping up the
'"black gold" that has brought her
wealth.
Two years ago. Mrs. Lucinda
Grove had practically nothing. She
was born on the farm from which
her rich income Is now flowing. She
married. had seven children and
twenty years ago was left widow.
Boys Left
The rocky. barren land yielded a
poor living when there were the six
boys TO work IL But they married
and left home, leaving Granny"
iCrowe and her daughter Clara to
make their own way.
But they were discouraged not at
'an. In fact. they decided to buy up
the interests of the other six heirs
SO that the 157 acres of hills and
funderbrush would be all their own
There was only one way to do Il.
and that was to SOW and plow and
market their produce themselves
For years they worked the few little
spots where cultivation was possible.
Granny" held the pillow and Clara

grown 10 $500, and with this they
bought up all of the other interests

tional argument for a high-pressure
system.
The above figures do not include
the contents of those buildings, which
are composed of stocks of merchan-
disc and priceless Government records,
! the value of which could hardly be
estimated.
The national board report commends
highly the Fire Department, which is
a well deserved compliment to Chief
Watson and his men, in which your
committee most heartily desires to
join.
The annual report of Chief Watson
shows 3,647 alarms received during
the year, an increase of 769 over the
previous year. The fire loss was
81 ,268,954, an increase of $431,758 over
the preceding year, which increase
you will note is a third Of the en-
tire loss.
Chief Watson recommends the es-
tablishment of an engine company in
the vicinity of Connecticut avenue and
Nebraska avenue northwest, which
recommendation also occurs in the re-
port of the national board and in
which your committee is glad to con-
cur. There is need also for new motor
apparatus to replace old apparatus

Evening star., 1926-10-30

chairman Of your committee on in
surance and fire protection attended
numerous hearings before Congress,
the Commissioners and the superin-
tendent Of insurance in an effort to
attain this end, but. owing to dis
agreements that took place in the first
part Of the session Of Congress be-
tween opposing interests, the session
adjourned without action. AS a result
Of conferences, however. we believe
the contending parties are not now
far apart. AS the next session IS a
short session, 1t is doubtful whether
Congress will pass any more legisla-
ton than the appropriation bills.
Because Of this delay some Of our
local companies which are badly ham
dicapped in their efforts to do busi-
ness outside of the District by the
lack of proper legislation here have
introduced a separate bill to cover
their needs. This bill was introduced
by Senator Sackett Of Kentucky at
the instance OF the local life insurance
companies and affects life interests
only and Is absolutely unopposed by
anybody and merely brings the Dis
trict up to and In line with the current
practice in the balance of the country.
Your committee on insurance and
fire protection fully indorses 1t and
urges the support of the full body
of the Board Of Trade in it's passage.
1t is known as Senate bill 4182.
The chairman of your committee on
insurance and fire protection held
numerous conferences with the United
States Chamber of Commerce, the
Washington Chamber of Commerce.

PAN-EUROPE IDEA
BACKED BY BANKER
ReiChSbank President Holds
Movement Will Advance
Human Progress.
BY the Associated Press.


BERLIN. October 50 Op). Members
and friends Of the Pan European Fed
Grafton are jubilant over the warm in
dorsement of the an-European idea
given by DR.. Hjalnar Schacht. presi-
dent Of the Reichsbank, yesterday. It
was the first public utterance Of the
German financial leader on the sub
iect and evoked considerable interest
in all quarters.
DIR. Schacht made his remarks be-
fore a. large company Of invited
guests. chiefly political lights of all
parties. at the home Of the President
"f the Reichstag, Paul I-oebe.
"Plan Economically Sound"
Declaring he was speaking mot as
g. member of the movement, but as
an outsider. as a pure economist ac-
customed to deal with the SobereSt
factors" DIR. Schacht said it was his
opinion that the pan European idea
was sound economically. besides rep
resenting an ideal worthy of Il Stiug-
gle as a cOunterbalanCe to eXagger-
ared nationaliSm. In the merger OF
the numerous small limited markets
he saw prosperity. while, from d
standpoint of practical economy. a
closer fusion of the individual Euro
pean markets was most attractive.
The battle against Chauvinlstic ma
tionalism, must be the keynote of tu-
ture diplomacy" he declared. Ma
tionalism means not only right, but
q duty. to enlarge and enrich modern
civilization.
The greatest advantages would ac-
crue if instead of numerous small,
artificially restricted markets, a large
A,,n nrlya n6
I.auds American Unity.
The pan-Europe idea must not be
regarded as directed against nOn-F.u-
ropean nations. Just as in a move
lnent toward international Industrial
organizations it is first necessary to
create national federationS. so. in
planning world federations, CONT
mental organizations may have to pre-
rede the inter-continental. Hence the
pan-Europe movement is the right
step in the direction of advancing hui
manity by economic we'll being to
spiritual and moral progress"
DIR. SchaCht's utteranCeS came after
statement by DR.. Loebe that his
visit to America last year made him
an ardent champion Of ii pan-Europe
movement. He noted the advantages
accr1ling to the United States from
federation, and realized the disadvan-
tages to Europe from division into
small nations.

Fitzgerald bill for a government mo-
