Capital Is Becoming
Center for Education

To the Editor of The Star.
Our capital is rapidly becoming the
religious AS well AS the educational
center of this country--witnesS the
numerous schools being erected in
the suburbs by the different denomi-
nations.
There is possibility that to the
number will be added one which will
teach the Hindo way of simple,
healthful living. the way those of the
Orient preserve their bodies in far
better health than we enjoy.
This teaching. which has been
brought to our city by Swami Yogan-
anda. has attracted much attention as
being radically different from all
methods as now taught in the West
Hundreds have been interested. and
strange as~it may seem. 1t may be
that within the near future a build
ing in which the best of Oriental
thought and knowledge can be given
to the world will soon rise among the
many educa tional edifices already
here
Fifty yeas ago We thought all of
the Orient "heathen''--now we know
it to be the cradle of wisdom and that
in matters of the care of the body.

mind it is far ahead of our modern,
commercial science. May Washing

An sos From "Old Ironsides. -"

Artistic reproductions Of the on

states 'tonStitution" have been
placed on sale in furtherance of the
campaign to save and to rehabiitate
this famed vessel. Already several

The copy of the painting. which IL

"In the purchase of this print Of

he can assist the ause by arranging

Sees Railways Willing
To Guard Crossings

To the Editor of The Star:
With respect 10 the kensington
crossing problem. which is of as much
interest to autoists of this city as to
Kensington, let me quote from recent
letter from a high Baltimore & Ohio
Railroad official
"In this connection l have been
negotiating for almost a year with
the authorities of the town of Ken
sington. both personally and by letter
in an effort to have them grant per-
mission for the insta LA ton of modern
flashing light signals that would afford
continuous protection al this crossing
and make unnecessary the use of
watchmen. but so far the authorities
have not been responsive to the sug-
gestion, notwithsta riding the fact it
has been explained to them that this
type of signal is the most modern and
has after thorough test been ap-
proved by the American Railway
Association, also has been Endorsed
by the authorities of a number of
States through which the lines of this
company operate
After ar accident we are apt to
Immediately cuss out the railroad. but
sometimes investigation reveals that
the railroad shows more real concern
and activity in protecting the public
than the officials elected by the public
and charged with responsibility.
Why the hitch in this insta nee {?
is 1t politics, stubborness, procra sti-
nation? Cannot we have more modern
government than that which brings

Quotes Editorial
On Capital Building
To the Editor of The star:

To the Editor of The star:
A complete answer to the remarks
OF Truxtun Beale relative to real es-
tate values on Lafayette Square liz
to be found in an editorial appearing
In Sundays New York World.
Speaking of "A Capital in the
Making that newspaper states that
the need for vigilance is the more
imperative in that Washington is at

liberal expenditure, becoming one OF
the worlds most beautiful capitals,

spoiled by the intrusion of inhar
m0nlous commercial structures. The
big building on Lafayette Square

beautiful mansions which II. H..

But even If the cost of protecting the
enVirons of the Capitol and the EX-

Diplomatic Appointments.

In the naming of Mr.. William
Phillips as the first Minister of the
United States to Canada. of Mr.. J.
Butler Wright as Minister to Hun
gary and of Mr.. Frederick A. Ster-
ling as Minister to the Irish Free state
fine impetus has been given to the
morale OF our Governments foreign
service. The following of the an
nouncement of these appointments by
those of Mr. Francis White and Mr.
William r. Castle. jr.. named az
Assistant Secretaries of state To MI
the vacancies caused by the depar-
ture of Mr.. Wright and Mr.. Leland
Harrison, justifies the belief that the
principle of appointing only trained
men to fill the highly responsible
positions in the State Department Is
now firmly established. For both Mr..
White and Mr.. Castle have for years
been intimately identified with the
foreign service, and have but moved
forward a stride to positions where
their proved abilities may be more
fully utilized.
1t is well that this should be SO.
For overlong appointments to posi-.
tions of large responsibility in the
foreign service of eur Government
were used for the purposes of petty
political patronage. The disadvan-
tages under which a constantly
shifting and largely inexperienced
secretariat and diplomatic corps Ia
bored when confronted with the
smooth functioning of highly trained
and broadly experienced foreign
officers in other parts of the world
were finally made apparent. With so
much achieved the policy of which
the appointments above noted are
excellent examples was initiated. That
the prestige and morale of the serv-
ice has been vastly improved thereby
Is as evident as it was inevita BILE.
A continuity of service In the
State Department and diplomatic
corps, whereby trained career" men
are enab led to meet current problems
with the details Of past negotiations
at their fingertips, is increasingly
essential to the successful progress
sion Of our national foreign policies.
That we are moving steadily in the
right direction is a matter of crafty
ing fact. Appointments of the type
recently made connote the divorce
Of our national and international
politics. The business of acquiring
suitable and permanent embassies
and legations abroad goes forward
apace under the Porter bill of last
year. And when the day arrives
when those who serve the Nation in
the delicate and vital field of foreign
affairs are paid salaries adequate to
the value of the services they rem
der the Nation, and the premium now
placed upon independent wealth
forever done away with, we shall
have removed the ma jor disadvan-
tages under which our foreign affairs
have suffered too long.

Warning of Deadly
Gas Fumes Renewed

From the Louisville Courier-Journal
A series of deaths from carbon mon
oxide in New England recently has
caused Prof. Yandell Henderson of
Yale University. recognized author
lty on toxic gases, to issue q warning
TO all motorists against deadly exhaust
fumes. Though the percentage of ia.
talities in this section is notably lower
than farther North. there are enough
cases TO warrant attention to Prof.
Hendersons warming
In brief, his simple admonition is to
open the garage door before starting
the motor. an elementary precaution,
yet one that is often overlooked. In
the lower temperatures that have pre-
vailed I'm New England this Winter 1t
has been ignored with fatal results.
Motorists on their way to work have
gotten no farther than their garages.
There they were found asphyxiated in
the unventilated buildings.
"Al the automobile safety cam.
paigns have known" declares Prof.
Henderson, fail to take account of
this constant evil. Any number of
deaths have occurred because the en-
CINE of the automobile is started be
fore the garage door is opened. The
deadly carbon monoXide is generated
as soon as the engine is started. The
gas which is produced by the engine
OF the automobile is simply deadly and
there is no escape for the person who
breathes it
The deaths from such poisoning are
increasing. There seems to be no
doubt, according to Prof. Henderson,
that they will continue to increase
There is only one. way of combating
the evil-the education of the motorist.

the simple fact that this gas when

The hue and cry against the poison
Gus qualities of tetra ethyl gasoline is
thing of the past. AS it Is discharged
from the exhaust the carbon monoxide
kills. The use of ethyl, according to
Prof Henderson. does not complicate
the present situation.

therefore, serve az a warning. 1t eX-
cuses the reiteration of an obvious pre-
caution.

Passage of the Radio Bill.

Twenty million radio listeners are
looking forward to speedy clearing
up OF the chaos that has existed in
the ether since last Fall when a Chi.
cago court overturned radio control
by the Department of Commerce.
Both the Senate and the House have
passed the White Dill radio law which
now goes to the President for his sig
nature, and which assures adequate
control of broadca sting stations.
The new law will he administered
mission. For the first year the Sec
rotary Of Commerce will act in an
administrative capacity and after that
as the sole control, except as to revo-
cation of licenses and controversial
matters which would be referred to
perma nent commission.
Congress in the passage of this
MEASURE has needed the wishes of
united Nation. Radio fans the coun-
try over have had their sets rendered
practically useless by the uncontrolled
and unregulated broadca sting stations.
While the new law may not be per
feet, there is every reason to believe
that, properly administered. il will
bring relief to the evil conditions
that have developed.
The President is expected to sign
the bill within the next few days, and
al the ga me time to submit the names
of the FIVE members of the commits
sion to the Senate for approval. 1t
is conceded that upon this commits
sion rests the future Of the radio in
dustry. It's task will be of tremen-
dous proportions. 1t must. as the
first step, wipe out "pirating" of
wave lengths by broadcasting sta
tions. This practice which consists of
seizing a wave length assigned to some
other broadcaster has been the chief
cause of the howl screeches and mis-.
cellsneo sounds that the radio
listener has had to bear. The com.
mission must also settle Industrial
disputss and tn ssasz take ever en-.
