COMMISSION 0. KS
PALISADES PARK.
Development of Potomac
Valley Is Favored After
Several Months Fight.

DEVELOPMENT of the Potomac River
Valley from Chain Bridge to and
above Great Falls, including the gorge
and palisades area, for park purposes
was favored by the National Capital
Park and Planning Commission, ac-
cording to terms of resolution adopted
late yesterday afternoon, after the
matter had been before the commission
for many months.
The commissions resolution took
some of the edge off the report of its
special committee, which recon-
mended that Congress be urged to pass
the bill providing for the acquisition
of the land for park purposes only 1t
was not a unanimous vote which re-
suited in the resolution adopted yes
terday.
Two members we're absent when the
final vote was taken. They were Sem
ator Arthur Capper Of Kansas, chair
man of the Senate District Commit
tee. called away by street railway
merger hearing, and Stephen T. Ma
ther, who is i'll.
Minority Report Planned.
1t was learned, however, that Maj
Gen. Edgar Jadwin, chief of engineers
commission, will file minority report,
favoring, it is understood, the hydro
electric development. The latter has
had several conferences with Maj
Brehon Somervell, United States Army
engineer in charge of the Potomac
River district, who made an exhaustive
investigation of the power possibilities
following submission to him for report
and comment of the application of the
Potomac River Corporation to the Fed
eral Power Commission for prelimi-
nary power permit.
Maj. Somervells report has been
ready for submission to the chief of en-
gineers for some time, but he has held
it in abeyance in Difference to the Park
Commission as he desired to include
in his report that body's recommends
tionS.
He consented to hold up his report
when the suggestion was made to the
commission and to him that joint
parkway hydroelectric development
might be worked out This suggestion
came from the representatives of the
company seeking the power permit, one
of whom was Col. Charles Keller former

WOMAN LAWYERS
PEACE AID ASKED
Justice Genevieve Cline of
New York Urges Approval
of Kellogg Pact.

= Expressing the hope that the Ameri-
ran Congress might make the Kellogg
hnti-war pact a wonderful interna-
Aional Christmas present to the world" !"
,AJustice Genevieve r. Cline of the United
States Customs Court, New York, last
might urged the Women's Bar Associa-
.tion of the District of Columbia TO take
the lead in every forward movement
toward world peace.
Delivering the principal address at
The annual banquet of the association
in the Washington Hotel, Justice Cline
told the women members of the bar
that they should no longer be assist
ants. but should take their place in the
forefront of public affairs.
Justice Cline told of the workings
of the Customs Court, and, agreeing
with other speakers. expressed the SEN
timent that women no longer want
chivalry from their masculine colleagues
before the bar. Now that they are con-
tending with men for bread for their
families, Justice Cline said, women must
learn to associate on basis OF strict
equality.
Disaereeing with Judge Kathryn
Sellers of the local Juvenile Court. JUS
tice Cline held that all judges should
be given life appointments.
Il think it is an outrageous thing
that Judges must! contend for their
places and really be dependent upon the
populace. They should be above going
to the community for votes" she de-
clared.
Judge Sellers had previously asserted
her belief that judges Of juvenile courts
should not be placed on the bench for
life, but should be accountable to the
public for their acts.
Judge Sellers expressed this view IN
the course of an appeal to the group to
take an interest In the legislation about
to be presented to Congress.
Two bills, one sponsored by Repre-
sentative Mcleod, Republican of Mich1-
gan, which, she explained, would make
the Juvenile Court branch of the Su-
preme Court of the District, and an
other, framed by Representative Zlhl-
man. Republican of Maryland, which
would make it more of domestic rela-
tions court and permit the judge to
have Jurisdiction over the children eve's
after passing on their cases, will soon
be introduced she said.
Although personally favoring the lat
ter BILL Judge Sellers said neither could
pass as introduced, and urged spirit
of compromise to effect an Improvement
of the present status OF the court.
Miss Viola Smith, Federal trade COM
missioner at Shanghai, told of her work
in the Orient. describing especially
the exterritorial counts and the few
women who practice law there.
The members were welcomed by Miss
Elizabeth C. Harris, president OF the
organization, while Mrs. Alma B. Part
ridge acted as toaStmistress. Guests
included Theodore Cogswell, register OF
wills, and Jesse c. Adkins, president
of the District bar.

officer of the Army Engineer Corps and
former Engineer Commissioner Of the
District of Columbia.
Mai. Somervell said yesterday that
Lieut. Col. u. S. Grant, Sd, executive
oficer of the Planning Commission,
promised to have in his hands the first
part of this week the action of the
Planning Commission on the Potomac
River project. AS soon as this is avail
able, he said, he would forward his re-
port.
The resolution as finally adopted by
the commission said that it "favorS the
acquisition of the Potomac Valley from
Chain Bridge to and including Great
Falls, and the development of this
area for park purposes as funds may
be made available, leaving 1t open for
Congress at any future time to author
ize the development of the navigation,
food control and power potentialitieS
of the area should such development
become of greater Importance and be
justified in the public interest"
Passage is Not Urged.
The commission did not urge passage
of the pending bill providing for acqui-
sition of the land for park purposes, as
was recommended by its special COM
mittee which made thorough study of
the matter
The commissions committee took the
position that there exists no present
necessity for the development of water
power in this area, pointing out that its
possible value being largely local, the
park and scenic values should not be
sacrificed for all time, but the area
should be developed for recreational and
park purposes in the interest of the
large population within easy reach OF
tourists from great distance.
1t was pointed out on behalf of those
urging power development that 1t would
be folly to develop a low-level parkway
in this area, because of the danger of
flood waters rushing down, as they did
several years ago, and wiping out every
thing improved on the area. On the
other hand, 1t was said, plan has been
mapped out whereby power development
could be carried out without any appre-
ciable destruction of the beauty of the
falls, and at the same time have high
level parkway.

wHITEMANs JAZZ ORCHESTRA.


Several thousand Washingtonians
hailed with enthusiasm the concert |
program of Jazz presented at the Wash |
ington Auditorium last night by the |
King of JaZz'-Paul WhiCetman--and |
his orchestra This orchestra has be-
come to other jazz groups through this |
country and abroad what the Phila-
delphia and Philharmonic symphony |
orcheStras have become to the CLASH |
cal type of orchestra.
There was Jazz in its more simple
form with old melodies reset in modern
trimmings, mostly brass. There also
was that aristocrat Of the jazz compo-
sitions, Concerto in F" by Gershwin,
commissioned by Walter Damrosch and
first played by the New York Symphony
Orchestra. but many times more effec-
tive in its new arrangement for this
jazz orchestra as played last night.
The first appearance" of the pro-
gram was Metropolis a mooern.stic

OF the W4lole program, however, it
was the Glowing ca Wilbur H4n III

automobile pump to achieve short
scale melody for the foundation of the
sketchy woodwind number, and even
reached the heights of good imita-
ton of Sousa's THE Stars and Stripes
Forever" that won the audience COM
pletelys not only to roars of laughter,
but to persistent applause that would.
not be. downed. His ''rube" f1ddling
trick (Which he has done here previous
ly), his remarkable trombone solo of
"Nola, and his caricature of ballet
dancing, with the assistance of a saxo-
phoniSt. likewise equipped with exag-
geratedly long-toed shoes, brought ap-
plauSe that was only stilled with diff
ficulty. 1t was several minutes, after
two failures to start the next number,
that the audience finally permitted Mr..
Whiteman to lead his S@orchestra in the
next selection.
.of the jazz numbers which did not
even pretend to be anything other than
up-to-the minute jazz tunes with the
usual amount of roundabout decoration,
"Chiquita" won first place il the popu-
larity of the audience and the two
young singers who gave incidental solos
In it were much applauded.
Chester Hazlitt, saxophone soloist,
won an encore for his ''Valse Inspira-
tion," showing much skill. One of the
trumpeters stepped out for another
short piece of clowning, doing a clever
imitation of German band leader,
and the finale was a novel interpreta-
ton of the usual American medley.
Michael Pingatore, wizard banjoist, was
at his best, though he did no solo.
In a few minutes back stage with
Mr.. Whiteman it was interesting to find
why, IN rearranging his orchestra since
its last appearance here three years ago,
he had cut down the number of violins
and added to the saxophoneS and from
bones. He said he felt that on tour of
the two, the strings could be done
without best although. in New York.
when he has the orchestra in full
strength, he has Is tiolins instead of

Company of Slayton is liable in the
sum of $4,000 for insurance on the

an assessment of $1,000 was made to
Mr. Beal, the assignee and holder Of
the policy, Mr.. Staples, never receiv-
ed such notice.

the Warner family intend to leave
Olivia in the near future. They have
decided to move to Litchfield where
Mr.. Warner will find it more conven-
lent in his work as deputy game war
den, and because of added response
bilities which he is about to assume
as an employee of the Game & Fish
department.
Mr.. and Mrs. Warner have resided
in Olivia for about twenty years and
have been active during all those
years in all civic and social move
ments that had for their object the
betterment of the community. They
will be missed from the social and
business circles of Olivia and from
community activities, but we can COM
mend them to the citizens of Itch
field as people who will measure up
to the highest standard of citizenship.
Mr.. Warner has not sold his home
there and the hope is expressed that
they may return to Olivia before very
long.-Olivia Times.

Morgan Men Patent All
Metal Sanitary Hens Nest
FLOWERS TO PLANT IN
THE BACKYARD GARDEN

H. B. Dorner, chief in Horticulture,
University of Illinois, advised the
short course class in horticulture at
University Farm to acquire some
thing of the spirit of the times in
which grandmother worked in the
garden. His subject was the "Old-
Fashioned Flower Garden" in which
he said, grandmother used everything
she could get by exchange and pro-
duced a riot of color.
Professor Dorner said that flow
ers and vegetables could be combined
to advantage. The ANIMALS had an
established place in the old garden
and should never be neglected. The
zinnia should be a staple, for it will
stand dry weather and hard knocks
generally, and is unsurpassed as a
cut flower. He recommended among
other varieties the Colossal and the
dahlia flower zinnia, and advised
the class to grow them in separate
cOlors-"the colors you want"
Other plants recommended for the
new old-fashioned garden were the
marigolds-big and little, the stock
lowered form of delphinium the
double variety of bachelor buttons Or
corn flowers sown in the fall, the
lupin, salpiglossis, scabiosa, and a
few coxcombs and amaranths. There
should be places also for four
o'clock, petunias, and verbenas, which
ale not so good for cut flowers but
which add color and beauty.
Still other plants worthy of use
We're the japanese morning glory, the
sweet pea, the climbing nasturtium,
baby breath, candytuft, and annual
phlox. OF California peoples, the tulip
poppy was to be preferred for its
beautiful lemon yellow color and the
fact that it would keep in water four
or five days.
New varieties of cosmos should
supplant the old type, he said. The
yellow cosmos can be grown to adj
vantage only under glass.

WORLD EVENTS BY TELEPHONE

Most Of US do not appreciate The
great work of the telephone in handl-
ing important events, and its share in
news dissemination.
The Southwestern Bell Telephone
Company, which covers the Republi-
can and Democratic convention cities,
already has skilled workers busy con-
structing and rearranging long dis
lance lines to handle the increased de-
mands for service that will result
from the two national political con-
ventions to be held at Houston and
Kansas City in June.
The Kansas City convention will re-
quire about 80 new circuits to ade-
quately handle the calls. Work is
being done on the same scale for the
Houston convention.
We are obliged to the telephone for
much of the news we receive, imme-
diately on its happening, whether it
be sporting events or presidential
nominations. 1t has become so inte-
grail part of modern business and
private life that we cannot imagine
the difficulties which would ensue
were we to be suddenly without it.
