HYDE APPROVES
ARBORETUM FUND
$500, 900 Would Be Used to
Complete Purchase of
Land for Project.

A favorable report on the McNary
bill, authorizing an additional 5000 900
for purchase of land to complete the
development of the national arboretum
in this city, has been received by the
Senate agriculture committee from
Secretary of Agriculture Hyde.
The Secretary pointed out in his
report that in 1926 when the national
arboretum bills were under considera-
ton in Congress it was estimated that
the land to be purchased would cost
$500000, and that amount was named
in the Pepper bill, as reported from
the Senate agriculture committee.
This was subsequently reduced to
100000, the amount authorized and
appropriated by Congress, in order to
conform to the financial program at
that time.
When the arboretum purchase
money became available in December,
1927" the report continued, "it was
found by Secretary of Agriculture that
100000 was not sufficient to buy the
whole of the area required. The be-
ginning of purchases was delayed for
several months, while an attempt was
made TO obtain supplementary gifts of
land sufficient to make up the neces-
sary acreage, but the effort failed.
Finally, after conference with Presi-
dent Coolidge, Secretary Jardine gave
instructions to proceed with the pur-
chase of'such land as could be acquired
with the $500, 900 available, and to leave
to future authorization the purchase of
the necessary remainder.
with the 100000 already authorized
and appropriated, 100 acres have been
purchased for the arboretum and 78
acres more are now in process of con-
demnation, total of 268 acres.
The 100000 authorized in the
present bill. S-4586, would make pos
sible the purchase of the remaining
parcels of privately owned land from
M street and Mount Ollvet road, on the
south, to r street, on the north, and
eastward to the Anacostia marshes, to-
falling 126 acres. The eastern border
of the area would extend from M street
northward to the Pennsylvania Rail-
road. The land available for arboretum
purposes would then lie in fairly
symmetrical compact body, much more
equal and convenient and more
economical of operation than the un-
consolidated parcels thus far acquired.
Because of the study advanced of land
values in that section and the proba-
bility that such advance will continue
as additional streets are opened, pur-
chase of the land at an early date Is
important from the standpoint of
economy as we'll as to make possible
the orderly and effective DEVELOPMENT
Of the arhoretum project"

CHINESE WAR HIDDEN
UNDER CENSORSHIP
Shanghai Has Slight News Of Re-

Great Battle Line.
~ the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
SHANGHAI, June 23-Although the
Nationalist armies were deployed over
o great battle line from Central Honan
Province to the Kiangsu border and
thence northeastward along the south
bank Of the Yellow River, they were be-
heved today to be renewing hostilities
In an attempt to crush the northern
alliance.
The apparent renewal of hostilities
came after brief cessation of fighting
which had been in progress for seven
weeks. During that time the rebellious
northerners threatened the existence
Of the Nationalist government.
Shanghai remained today with but
slight knowledge of the battle trend.
Without explaining its action, which
apparently was designed to withhold
news from the war theater, the gov
ernment set up a news censorship in
comparison to which similar moves in
the past were mild.
The government also increased its
efforts in this area to round up persons
suspected of activities inimical to the
Nanking regime Numerous Chinese
suspected of disseminating northern
propaganda against the Nationalist
were arrested.

Are Under Way.
M0UTHPIECE OF LABOR
WARNS ON REPRISALS
Advises Efforts for Cuts in Certain
Items and Concerted Action
With Other Countries.
BY the Associated Press.

BRUSSELS, June 23.-An "anony-
nous high official today was quoted by
LIE Peuple with the statement that joint
negotiations already are under way
among European countries interested in
the effects of the new United States
tariff.
Louis Debrouckere, voicing the views
of the Belgian labor party in the same
newspaper warns against tariff reprisals
and advises negotiations for cuts on
certain items. In this he recommends
concerted action by Belgium with the
other interested countries. Debrouc-
kere, delegate at the International
Labor Bureau in Geneva, predicts the
American tariff policy will greatly foster
European solidarity.
Louis van Berckelaer, secretary gen.
eral of the International Diamond
Workers Syndicate, today expressed the
opinion that the tariff would result in
an immediate improvement in the Euro
pean diamond industry. He explained
that during the tariff discussions in
Washington American diamond dealers
refrained from accommodating new
stocks
Reduced tariff on uncut diamonds of
10 per cent instead of the previous 20
per cent will result, he said, in New
York becoming an important market
for rough stones and bring to a stand
still the well organized smuggling of
gems that has been going on
He predicted that while the large
stones would be cut in the United
States, the branch of European industry
would hardly be affected by the new
situation.
Similar optimism today prevailed
among other diamond dealers, who ex-
pressed belief that America by August
or September, would be more i'm
portant buyer in the diamond market
than ever before.

District D. A. r. chapters whose names indi-
cate where their votes might be expected TO go.
There is the Marcia Burnes Chapter for IN
stance, named for the beautiful daughter OF one
OF the original proprieters" of District terri
tory. Although David Burnes' property extended
as far east as the site of the Patent ONCE he
chose for his home lot the square where the

his story has been often told it may not be
generally known that this lot was the center
Of the original 40 miles square" His cottage,
often called the oldest house in Washington"
was RACED in 1894, but its old mantel was pre-

trict connected with the life here of the man
to whom credit is mostly due for designing the
plan Of the City Of Washington. Although
many others carried on the work which LEI

by President Washington, without material
change, in August, 1891.

tiers during his work Of city planning, is stin In
