SPACE
SOUGHT FOR
PARKING
By e. 2. DUFFY

a :
In line with the elimination Of
waste In ali forms of endeavor, as
for instance the use Of corn stalks
In making paper, cities in the
future must give more attention to
the elimination OF waste space.
OF the several conditions hamper
ing cities. now that the automobile
has complicated transportation prob
lens, one of the most in need OF
corrective measures Is the elimina-
ton OF Chinese walls" accumulated
through the CONSTRUCTION OF retain.
ing walls and fills by electric and
steam railroads. it has long been
the custom in elevating railroad
tracks to build parallel retaining
walls, filling in between them with
earth, with occasional openings at
street intersections
Not Modern Ideas
Traffic authorities point out that
barriers formed by such constru ;.
ton are not In keeping with mod
ern needs. Instances are cited 20
chow that this space under the
tacks can be utilized to the adj
vantage OF both railroads and the
general public, Such space. fre-
quently valued at $3.50 or more per
running foot, can be made available
/ through simple and economical con-
struction Of supporting columns and
deck.
Three uses for this space are ap-
parent; business, parking and auto
mobile traffic arteries.
In the Wilson Avenue section Of
Chicago, space beneath the electric
elevated lines has been successfully
converted into business property.
This Improvement benefits both the
railroads and the public.
Good Parking Place
An excellent example Of the use
of space that otherwise might he
wasted is at the East Orange, n. J.,
station of large railroad. Under
meath the elevated tracks and near
the station provision has been made
for the parking OF numerous cars.
Engineers point out that where
four tracks are elevated the ground
space under the superstructure is
about SO feet wide. With the
proper spacing Of the supporting
columns at least three cars can be
parked for each eIght.foot length.
The yearly income from this eight
feet Of land would be equivalent to
the annual interest income from
three or four thousand dollars and
in addition motorists would have a
convenient place to park.
This 60-foot width could also be
utilized as a thoroughfare for auto
mobiles, with room for two or three
traffic lanes travelling in each direc-
ton. With traffic congestion IN
many cities costing almost unbe,
lievable sums, it Is entirely logical
to expect cities and railroads to co.
operate for such usage, traffic plan.

MEXICO L|STSF FIVE
EDUCATION POINTS
School Program Seeks Ban.
ishment of IIIiteracy
Throughout Nation.
BY the Associated P-ess.

BY the Associated Press
MEXICO CITY, September 21.-Five
points of major importance are listed
in the governments program Of public
instruction, as outlined by EzeQuiel
Padilla, secretary of education, to the
national teachers convention here.
Preparation for the working classes
to resist abuse by big industry, war on
religious fanaticlsm and defense Of the
freedom Of thought doctrine, intensif1-
cation Of physical training and devel-
opment of sports, an offensive against
alcoholism and concentration on the
awakening of a spirit of optimism in
the people are the pillars of the gov
ernment's program.
To Abolish Illiteracy.
Illiteracy must be wiped out to fit
the working classes for the dramatic
race" which is going on between labor
and big industry in Mexico, Padilla de-
clared.
The Mexican school cannot sustain
dogmatic religions, Padilla said. There
can be no religion in the Mexican
school but that of work, social justice
and human fraternity" The school
must eternally combat religious fanati-
cisn1 and preach freedom Of thought.
Physical Training Necessary.
Physical training and development
of sports of all kinds are as necessary
in Mexico as the three RS, and this
work should be complemented by a
ceaseless campaign against the drink
habit, which he termed the country's
greatest evil.
The spirit Of encouragement so
common In Mexico should be con-
fronted by instilling into the school
children an attitude Of optimism, based
on the confidence that equal oppor-
tunity Is to be given to all classes and
the assurance that the country's fu-
ture lies In the hands of the masses.

ultory fighting continues along the
Russo Chinese borders in Ma11churia.

but idle.
While Moscow is waiting, for the next
move from the Marking diplomats In
the long dispute over the control and
operation of the road, Chinese troops
supported by white Russian irregulars,
continue guerrilla warfare in the areas
where the Chinese part OF the line joins
with the Russian.
Within the past 4s hours four such
attacks were reported. In the village Of
Abagatuevsky Chinese soldiers kept up
continuous fire on Russian automobile
transports until they were driven of.
At Pogranichnaya Chinese attacked
machine gun fire. According to a
Khabarovsk dispatch, Chinese military
authorities in Michan district, Is miles
west Of Lake Hanka, have formed a
large, we'll armed band of white guards
for a surprise attack on Russian soil.
The dispatch added that red army
forces had taken measures to prevent
the raid.
A telegram from vladivostok said

since September II were beaten of yes
terday and some of them captured.
These testified that the band was or
ganized at Hardin by Russian general
on instructions from Manchurian au-
thorities. Most of the members were
former czarist officers. They were said
to have orders from Chinese military
authorities to cross the frontier TO rob
and kill the people in Soviet villages.

MANCHUR|AN ARMY.
'TOBE KEPT INTACT.
Soviet Leader Tells Congress
Peace, However, VIII Be
Governments Aim.
Hx the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
MOSCOW, September 21.-Alexei I.
Rykod, president of the Council 81 Pee
pies Conmissars, in q ringing address
4. tonight to the First Moscow Regional
Congress of Soviets stated that the So
Wet government was prepared to MAIN
tain its army throughout the Winter on
the Manchurian border, but would not
resort to hostilities as long as possibility
OF peaceful settlement existed.
I'VE have a specially organized and
powerful army in Winter quarters on
the Chinese border in fun readiness for
any eventuality," he said. "but We shall
not call it into full action as long as
the slightest chance exists for peaceful
settlement Of the conflict over the Chi
nese Eastern Railway.
May Reinforce Troops.
I'VE shall not recall the army of Gen.
VaSsili Butcher with the coming of
Autumn. We shall, II necessary, REIN
force it and bring 1t to point of
greater readiness. But repeat, we shall
not begin hostuities as long as o pos
sibility for peaceful settlement exists.
I'VE shall not accept the conditions
! of Marking, which would be tantamount
to a Soviet surrender to Chinese gen.
erals"
The speech of the president of the
Soviet union was received with thun-
derous cheers. Rykoff stated that a
memorandum given the United States
Government by Ambassador @. c. WI
setting forth the reasons for the ex-
pulSion of Russian employees Of the rAll-
road was based on forgeries alleged to
have been found during a raid on the
Soviet consulate in Hardin. He said
| that the memorandum contained most
absurd and nonsensical statements.
Says Notes Ignored.
The president declared that resort
| by Marking to extraordinary athroci-
ties and abuses of Soviet citizens would
! not force the Soviet government from
| its position with regard to the rail-
way" He added that the Chinese
government had repeatedly ignored
Soviet notes protesting treatment OF
its nationals.
Rykof stated that a telegram from
! Nine. Sun Vat Sen, widow of the
| founder Of the Chinese Republic. to
! the Anti-Imperialist League showed
that large sections of the Chinese pub
| lie did not support the stand taken
| by the Marking government.
1.-THE conditions Of Marking" he
went on, "offer no basis for settle
ment of the controversy because China
wishes to retain a position captured
by force and by unexplained violation
OF the first and only treaty Of equality
voluntarily concluded by China with
the Soviet government. We still in
sist as a minimum upon appointment
| of a new Soviet manager and assistant
manager of the Chinese Eastern Rail-
| way, provided the Chinese appoint
new chairman to the board Of direc-
tors. If the Chinese reject this
minimum, 1t means that they DO not
seek peace"

THREE DOGS ADDED
TO HOOVER KENNEL
Two English Settlers and Es-
kimo Puppy Are Presented
to President.

Three dogs have been added to the
White House kennels in the last two
dAys-two pedigreed English settlers,
nearly full grown. and an Eskimo hound
Of the kind used by natives in Alaska
for sled teams.
The settlers, brother and sister, won
Numerous prizes during the brief
period they were in contests before COM
ing to the White House. They are d.
rect descendants of the famous South
boro Savanna, international champion
English setter. They are said to have
been well schooled for bird shooting,
but inaSmuch as the President does not
include hunting in his outdoor recrea-
ton it is doubtful If the honor of
flushing or pointing birds fer the
Chief Executive will ever fall to them.
The settlers were presented Mr.
Hoover by D. C. Kok, dog fancier of
Palo Alto. Calf. who bred and trained
them. The male Is Southboro Mark
ham, and the female Southboro Sunny.
It Is thought likely that the Presi-
dent may keep only one. The other
may be given to one Of his friends.
The President already has setter Of
the Gordon variety, Gillett. Moreover
with Tut, the Belgian police dog
brought to the White House by Mr. and
Eskimo dog, running the south grounds,
Mr.. Hoover Is represented as feeling
that there is no use in overcrowding
the White House kennels. The Eskimo
dog is still in the puppy class. He is
only two or three months old and ac-
cording to his present size he will be
the biggest thing in the kennels in a
short time. He Is snow white, but thus
far, without name.
