Macdonald Given Help
By Baldwin for Break
of Soviet Relations

LONDON, Nov. Conservative
Party leader and ex-premier Bald
win has welcomed back Macdonald
to England with the announcement
that his party will moe vote of
censure against the ''labor" govern
ment "for the manner in which" it
is working for resumption of rela-
lions with the Soviet Union, While
with Liberal assistance the vote is
not likely to carry, Macdonald can
easily use this opposition to sharpen
the attitude to such resumption and
prepare for war eventually around
such reasons.

CARELESS SENATORS

been their practice to toss to the
news-gathers a few careless words.
just to give them something to write
and to get rid of them. But they have
found that Hoover evidently watches
the papers, and whenever he sees
himself quoted as saying something
he did not say he Immediately tells
the world so. A late case was that of
Senator Jim Watson, Republican
leader in the Senate and a big man
generally. Coming from talk with
the President he told the news bows
that Hoover's position on the tariff
was that "the yardsick of adequate
protection should be given" The
next day word came from the White
House that the President had said
nothing of the sort.-The Pathfinder.

who recall how hard it was to get

Dangerous Shiny Things
Blasting caps are powerful little
devices necessary to the explosives
industry and every effort is made to
prevent carelessness in their use by
workmen. Nevertheless several
hundred children pick up loose caps
around quarries and construc' ON
work and are damaged by then ev-
cry year. Radio talks for the pro-
lection of children have been given
recently by officials of the Depart
ment of Agriculture, the Surgeon
General of the United States, the
National Safety Council and the Bur-
eau of Mines. A great many of the
schools throughout the country have
participated in the safety-movement,
and their attention has been divert
ed to the dangers of blasting caps.
"The Ladies, God Bless EN-"
NO woman was in the employ of
the United States Government until
1862, when one started trimming
currency. In those days most of
them were Head-makers or sewers
of jeans. Women did not go into
the marts of trade but took care, in
some fashion of homes. Today in
Washington nearly twenty five
thousand women are on the Govern
ment payroll. The men outnumber
them by about ten thousand. Most
OF the women are in clerical or
stenographic service, but more and
more they are assuming the admin
istrative and executive functions.
Some of them are getting the high
salaries. There are a few militant
ladies here constantly agitating for
more "woman's rights" but on the
whole "the prospect pleases" and
only man is Vile" Most of the
worlds money is rapidly coming
into the possession of the women
any way, through life insurance
methods, so the old toasts may take
on new meaning.
"YOU Can Make 1t"
That is the title of a pamphlet
that has been printed by the National
Committee on Wood Utilization of
the Department of Commerce. When
an Indian lighted his signal fire his
only interest was that he put out
the embers so that there was no
danger of forest fire or even trace
of him. But for wood these days
just to go up in smoke is sinful
waste. Today the profits of busi-
ness are often in the savings. The
pamphlet mentioned contains dia-
grams and explanations for building
of various appliances from wooden
boxes, the object being to interest
the boys of the country in utilizing
as far as possible the lumber that
is so often wasted when boxes are
thrown away or just burned.

Our Weekly
Washington Letter
The COngress PrOgram

1t now seems that the remainder
of the extra session will be given to
the tariff issue, and some of the
questions much in the public mind,
such as foreign problems, cruiser
building, and so on, will be put in
the background. This is in line with
Mr.. Hoover's pledge to the country
when he promised to call an extra
session to deal with the tariff, and
farm relief. These are two of the
most important problems before the
country. 1t is believed that the
farm situation has been greatly i'm
proved, though it is not clear that
the man who eats and has to pay
for what he eats, will profit. Pos
s1bly tariff developments will help
him. In any event the present tar
III situation is a difficult one. The
new bill to be introduced covers a
wide range, and involves great in
dustries, new industries, and many
factors that have not been to the
front before. The Republicans be-
l1eve it will take all the time and
thought Congress can give to settle
the tariff. The Democrats, it is
expected will try to impede the pas
sage by efforts to introduce extra
neous matters, and this will be
fought by the Republicans. The
President does not seem to be wor-
ried orr particularly interested in a
congressional fight. In due time he
will probably make clear his general
thought. Whatever ones views on
the tariff the situation is fraught
with real problems and the best
thought of the country should be
given to it Independent of political
affiliations.
Way Stations For Migratory
Ducks and Geese
A number of eastern sportsmen,
with large estates, are providing
resting places for wild ducks and
geese by blasting out ponds where
the birds may tarry on their long
flight from the South to nesting
grounds in Canada. The practice is
recognized as a real contribution to
game conservation and restoration.

TO MY DOG
Somebody poisoned my dog today,
Though he never did any ill
And so he is through with his canine
play,
And his stubby old tail is still.
No more shall walk in the fields
with him
Along at my side to jog,
And don't care if my eyes are dim,
Somebody poisoned my dog.
He was homely, l know, as a dog
could be
A typical Airedale, too;
But loved the old fellow and he
loved me,
AS men and dogs may do.
Nothing on earth could steal his
trust
Or his love and his faith befog-
And now he lies here at my feet in
the dust
Somebody poisoned my dog.
He crawled to my side and licked
my hand,
And then with a gasp he died;
And though some people cannot un-
derstand,
patted his head-and cried;
For it is not funny to lose a friend,
From off this earthly cog,
And he was loyal, right to the end
Somebody poisoned my dog.
I wonder how any one could have
done
That poor old pal such harm;
For there he lies, his race is won,
Though his body's still soft and
warm.
My life is lived on a peaceful plane;
My pace is a quiet jog,
But l wish 1 could find the dirty cur
Who poisoned my little dog.

ing fixtures.
For both paint and enamel, the
primer should be a fiat drying paint
tinted to match the finish. For an
enamel finish, the second coat may
be enamel undercoating or fiat paint
while the third coat will of course
be enamel.
If your walls are sponge stippled
this treatment, too, can easily be
applied to your radiators. Two coats
of white paint, thinned and tinted as
above described, are needed for the
foundation of this finish. The third
coat in this case is also white but
tinted to match the stipple color OF
the wall. Before it is applied, the
paint is thinned to the consistency
of a thick paste and then put on in
dabs with deep sea wool sponge,
cut fiat on one side. The motion of
the hand should be a tapping one
and there should be no attempt to
make a definite pattern. The effect
desired is a mottled finish so the
more irregular the stippled blotches,
the more attractive the result.
And the radiator loses none of its
heating efficiency when it becomes a
decorative asset. In fact, it has
been proved by scientific tests that
radiators which are coated with
white or light tinted paints have a
higher degree of radiation than
those which are finished with the
bronzes or other metal paints.
American Dirigibles
Not many in America can picture
the appearance of Montgolfier at
Versailles, France, on the 18th of
September, 1888, before Louis XVI,
or of the earliest aeronauts at the
Tuileries. On that date a balloon
went up 100 feet and travelled 10,-
200 feet. The noblest, the most il
lustrious and the most learned men
in France were present. 1t was the
fourth public experiment. Immedi-
ately following this came several
brief ascents of a man, Pilatre des
Roziers. Then, on the 21st of Oc-
tober, Roziers and the Marquis
d'Arlandes made a voyage in the
air of nearly 10000 feet. Our own
Benjamin Franklin was among the
observers and is reported to have
remarked: "It is a child who is be-
ing born" To Germany, however,
must be given the credit of the great
development of lighter-than-air
craft. The recent successful flights
of the Graf Zeppelin add zest to

ord it is satisfactory at last to feel
that the day is not far distant when
two very fine specimens of dirigibles
will be ready in our own land, and
that the first all-metal dirigible has
just made a successful trial. 1t is
planned to use helium in these
ships. Those of us in Washington
