wv. DEDICATION
ATTENDEDBY2,0)O
New Building Crowded to
Capacity as Mrs. Coolidge !.
Accepts Key.

A crowd of more than 1000 wit
messed the dedication yesterday art
ernoon of the new Young Women S
Christian Association Building at
Seventeenth and X streets and the
presentation of the key to the bul!d-
ing to Mrs. Coolidge, who accepted 1t
in behalf of the young women "ot
Washington, of the Nation and OF
the world
DIR. Mary +. Woolley, president OF
Mount Holyoke College, told the as
semblage that pleasure seeking, self
Indulgence and cynicism of today are
the result of the disillusionfnent
which followed womans first taste OF
her new freedom. DR.. Woolley was
the principal speaker at the exercises
Crowded to Capacity.
The building was crowded to
capacity when the exercises began
at o'clock. The program was
opened with a violin prelude by Miss
1valee Newell, followed by singing
by a choir of so voices. DR.. w. S.
Abernethy, pastor Of Calvary Baptist
Church, then conducted responsive
reading.
Mrs. Thomas Edwin Brown. presi-
Eent of the board of directors of the
club. conducted the dedication. She
received the key from Mrs. Fred h.
Wright, chairman of the building
eommittee, and presented it to Mrs.
Coolidge. DR.. Charles Wood of the
Church of the Covenant, gave the
prayer.
DR.. Woolley contrasted the free girl
of today with the sheltered girl OF
past generations. 'Woman's larger
freedom" she said, lis bought at a
price The phase of eXhilaration has
passed and given way to disillusion-
ment. This disillusionment naturally
leads in the case of the more super
ficial to an extravaganza in pleasure
seeking and pleasure indulgence; IN
the case of the more thoughtful to
q mood of cynicism."
Emphasizes Religious Need.
DR.. Woolley emphasized the value
of religion as a stabilizer and IN
spiration for the girl of today. In
stead of robbing one of earthly in
terests, she said, religion corrects
the perspective and enables youth
to see the true scale of values.
The value of the new Young Wom-
ems Christian Association Building,
she said, lies in its furnishing home
atmosphere, the refining influence OF
beauty and satisfaction OF the nat
ural craving for amusement.
Character by contagion is not
figure of speech she said. 1T is
reality we have been criminally lax
in facing"
Following Dr. Woolleys address,
DIR. Abernethy concluded the exer-
cises with a benediction. On leav-
ing, Mrs. Coolidge was escorted
through a double line of girls, mem
bers of the association, in white
uniforms.

THE TAX N NEI ARE IN CONGRESS-

The desire ol an intlGeutal rcc- non of Congress To bring about 's larga u ta4 slash as possible, and at tho sane time show d willingness to provide maximum appropriations for governmental activities, after all Is moi hard to understand. All Of us would like to have our cake and yet cat il, ,ae difficulty lies in the im- possibility Of doing both.
 Whon one considers fine appro- prJaUons necessary at this Congress --encompaSaug larger projects than have boen on the asenda for many yaare-one cannot help thinking tuut 1t will take genius to provide d. uly 10 g.t tba ma>lmm sums needed and still afford maximum tax r.dur'ions.
 Here are tue proIccts for which appropriations are needed, and none Of them Of small cmjb.r.

Washington's Birthday, Fourth of July, etc. are observed or celebrated in most of the states and in this sense, they are generally considered national holidays: but there is no federal law making it obligatory upon the several states 10 observe them as such. The public holidays created by acts of Congress affect only the federal agencies, such as federal offices, national banks, etc. Each state is left free to legis- late on the subjects of holidays.
 Q. Where is Sidonia?
 A. Sidonia is an ancient Phocn- ician city in the region of Sidon. north of Palestine. It was captured by Cyrus in 537 B. C.; by Alexander the Great in 333 B. C. and by the Turkish and British troops under Commodore Charles Napier in 1S40. The modern name is saida.
 Q. Does Hign and Low German refer to a people or a language?
 A. Low German and High Ger man are dialects. The German lan- guage is divided geographically into Low German spoken in the Nether- lands and includes Friesian. Dutch, Flemish and Old Saxon. High Ger man includes the Thuringian, Fran conian, Swabian. Alstaian, Swiss and Bavarian dialects. Modern high Ger man is the literary language and the language of the educated classes and is known simply as German.
 Q. Are soul" and instinct" the same?
 A. Soul Is the principle or ve- hicle of the life of the invidual, conceived of as a substance, quality or efficient cause of the phenomena of sentence an1 consciousness in general. Instinct is a natural, spon- taneous impulse or propensity in the lower animals or in men. nov ing them without reasoning toward actions essential to their existence, preserva ton and development.

tail tax reduction to the vicinity Of S225, 900, o00, but has adopted fine strategy in showing willingness to await more definite knowledge or the coming surplus. The maximum tax rcducers have been making much capital of the fact that in past years Secretary Mellon 'Suessed' wrong as to the annual surplus that each years surplus since he las been at the helm has turned out to b. much higher than he had given uS probable. The maximum rlduccrs naturally expect the same thing to happen this year; so the adminis,ra- tiou says t is willing to wait until tHo definite result is known. This k a logical move, but il is doubtful whether tho hurried tax roduccrs in Congress will think much ol the plan. r. they persist in 'rlashing, taxes" in the way they have started, tIe impasSe ill all likelihood will ro- suit in a bill which the President, if he doesn't change his mind, will have to veto If passed and rrescnled to him.
 The spectacle Of Congress, being on more Of a tax reduction rampage i than the President is rather cu,iNcn-
 ing. Pho reverse Is the usual order. Proof that the President actually in- tends 10 refrain from being can- diduta for ~re-clection is c.,ar!y found in his tax stand.

The President is playing no politics in this matter.

 maximum tax reductions and large
 appropriations in any other way.

\ FLIGHT or FOLLY

[, is hard to contemplate the folly of Mrs. Frances Grayson and the three men aboard her amphiOlah plane pawn" without coming 10 Inc conclusion that the law against su- eide should be invoked 10 save fool ish flyers from their folly.
 Warnings are not enough. The weather department for weeks past has been forecasting the usual dill cult weather over the North Allan lie. SO furious have been the gales that rescue and salvage work over the s4 has been found impossible.
 Yet in spite of this impossible ou'- look for ocean flying in the northern zone Mrs. Grayson elected 10 accept the odds with dcath-odds Of about so 10 1.
 Such futile attempts do not ad- vance the science Of flying. Even the manufacturers of planes. who seem so set upon oceanic flights of one sort or another, are not benefited by such sctbacks,
 Mrs. Grayson is the fifth woman who has attempted to fly the ocean and has failed. Two of them arc known to have perishod-Mlss Mll- dred Doran and the Princess Anne Iowenstein- -Wertheim. The fate ot Mrs. Grayson is not certain but the chances Of her being alive at this writing arc slight indeed.
 The womanly sex has shown in- trepid bravery in it's participation 1T flying events; it has been as brave as the sterner sex. The woman Lind bergh, however. has not yet appear ed: and Lindbergh himself does no' take the chances that some Of the women, especially Mrs. Grayson have taken. While Mrs. Grayson was defying the northern storms ant frigid cold Lindbcrgh was tly'nl under balmy skies. Lindbergh show cd judgment, while Mrs. Grayson- by no means such an accomplished flyer as dbergh-showcd q ro markable lack of this necessary quality.
