"For the past 10 years have suffered

to set tongues wagging. At least it may
be said with regard to the Mitchell MAJ
ter that his name has been under con-
Sideration for the office.
One OF the rlimors that is going the
rounds now is that Secretary Jardine OF
the Department of Agriculture was
slated to be retained as head of the De-
partment of Agriculture. but that there
was failure TO let him know the desires
of Mr.. Hoover in time to forestall his
announcement that he would accept
outside employment after March a. The
upShot of the matter has been. accord
ing to the report, that there has been
no little difficulty in finding the man
desired for this place. The farm prob
lem is to be tackled Immediately at the
coming special session of Congress. Sec
rotary Jardine'S ideas with regard to
this problem have run along with those
of Mr.. Hoover. He Is familiar with the
subject and with legislation and legis-
lative methods. A new man comes into
the department at difficult time, to say
the least It Is true that Mr.. Hoover's
own ideas regarding farm relief are to
be put into legislative form and admin
istration, and that any man he NAV
name to be Secretary of Agriculture will
have to conform to those ideas. But it
Is also true that a Secretary of Agricul-
ture will be looked to to advise the
President in these matters.

Municipal Center Assured.

Legislation has now been completed
that lays the basis for municipal CEN
ter for the District Government. The
Senate yesterday passed without amend
ment and without debate bill already
passed by the House authorizing the
Commissioners of the District to &C.
quire by purchase or condemnation all
Of squares 400, 491 and 500 and the
square known as reservation 10 as a site
for. such municipal center, and to
construct thereon the necessary build
ings 10 house the Districts govern
mental activities. The area is bounded
by Pennsylvania, Indiana and Louisiana
avenues and by Third and Sixth
streets. This bill, which now goes 10
the President for signature, carries no
appropriation. 1t does, however, au-
thorize the appropriation of such sums
as may be necessary to carry out its
provisions, including an item for the
employment Of architectural and other
professional services. The section which
authorizes these appropriations istipu-
lates that the funds thus provided are
to be payable in like manner as other
appropriations for the expenses OF the
Government of the District Of Column
bia." This signifies that the United
States will bear no share of the cost of
the municipal center, unless a new prac-
tice is adopted meanwhile, other than
a portion of the lump sum of Federal
funds annually allotted tot District
maintenance and development.
With this enactment, which will UNI
doubtedly become law through, signature
of the President, the municipal center
project is assured and in good season
Actual acquisitions of property cannot
be effected, Of course, until the appro-
priations are made. Nor can specific
plans be drawn for the structures that
are to occupy the site. But the most
important step has been taken in the
general authorization Of site purchase
and of future allotments of funds. The
Commissioners will doubtless. on the
basis of this act, submit estimates to
Congress at the next session for the
beginning of the site requirement, and
also for the preparation of plans. That
will start in motion the procedure for
the evolution Of municipal center
which, in addition to supplying the Dis
trict with an adequate equipment for
administration, will aid in clearing up
and improving conditions along Penn
sylvania avenue to match the improve
ments on the southern side incident to
the Governments building program.

WASHINGTON OBSERVATIONS
gY FREDERIC WILLIAM VILE

started the movement to build a mnnu-
mental highway from the Capital to
the home and tomb of Washington. He
incorporated by act of the Virginia
Legislature the Mount Vernon Avenue
Association" which for more than a
generation has been appealing to Con-
gress for aid in its enterprise. The Vir-
ginia Legislature assigned to the asso-
citation the proceeds of its claim for
$4,000, with interest, against the Fed
eral Government for the purpose of
building the avenue" as it was then
called. Now. In his eightieth year and
the last survivor of the original associa-
ton, Mr.. Harlow sees the beginning of
the reward for his labors Of half
lifetime.
One of the enmities with which the
Seventeen Congress expires is the
broken friendship between Speaker
Nicholas Longworth and his one-time
chief adjutant, Representative James T.
Begg of Ohio. Up to a year ago Mick
and Jim" were cronies and bosom
friends. Begg had captained the Long
worth forces in the fight against the
late Martin B. Madden for the speak
ership in 1925. In the days when 1t was
supposed that Mick" had presidential
ambitions they were fomented by no
one more fervently than by Jim" Begg
In 1928 Begg aspired to the Republican
nomination for the governorship of
Ohio. He counted confidently either on
the support, or at least the neutrality,
of his friend Longworth--so the story
goes. To "Jim's" establishment. Mick"
supported his successful rival, Myers Y.
Cooper Of Cincinnati, who Is now gov
ernor. The Cincinnati organization
backed Cooper In the primary contest
and Speaker Longworth felt himself
obligated to go along.

Brain Is Kept Alive
BY Four Blood Pipes
BY e. E. FREE. PHI. d.

=
: A brain can live without blood for
only one minute and half. Depriva-
ton for two minutes is sometimes fatal,
sometimes not. If the flow of the vital
fluid through the thinking cells ceases
for two and one-half minutes or longer,
that brain Is ruined forever, even
though the animal that owns 1t may
survive.
So report two French psychologists,
M. and Nine. A. Chauchard, who
described recently TO the Academy
OF Sciences in Paris experiments In
which the blood supply to the brains
of animals was shut off by pinching
the arteries in the neck or by COM
pressing the brain inside the skull so
that blood could not enter. Nature evil
IDENTIFY has learned. the French expert
mentors report. that plenty of blood in
the brain Is important and that the
long, thin neckS of animals of the
backboned class are apt to get twisted
or choked by the numerous accidents
of life on earth. Accordingly. no less
than four main arteries supply the
brain, like duplicate water mains for a
great city. If any three of these are
blocked, the fourth will still supply
enough blood to keep the brain alive.
Even II all four are blocked tenn
porarily, enough blood often filters
through smaller parallel vessels to pre-
vent the permanent injury Of the brain,
much as a little city water might
trickle past an obstruction In the street
mains by means Of connecting pipes in
adjoining houses. To shut of all the
blood supply OF an animal brain was
found not to be easy. When this Is done
the animal faints In a few seconds. but
will recover If the vessels are opened
again and the blood allowed to flow
within the fatal ninety second limit.
