Tondeleyo, that most seductive and

deserts Is living again in white
Cargo at the Moore Theatre this
week, and she is brought to life, once
more, by her original creator, Miss
Edith Ransom. Miss Ransom opened

the part as only she can play 1t.
White Cargo Is play OF atmos-
phere, the audience lives in the tropi-
cal heat Of the African deserts, and
feels the dry-rot that crumbles away
the white mans self-respect and man
hood. Another factor that causes the
slow disintegration Of civilized man,
is Tondeleyo herself, who boasts that
she can get any man on the coast.

A MERRY CHRISTMAS.

sI ~
Merry Christmas necessarily means
a healthful Christmas for who can be
merry when there is illness in the
home. And this Day Of Days, for
which the children have waited with
hearts aflutter for many weeks should
not be marred by even little sniffle-
nose.
Then, the selection Of gifts is, Of
course, a most important factor in the
successful Christmas. Why not make
q gift of an extra amount of fresh
air, exercise and sunshine by giving
toys that will take the children OUT
of-doors, such as skates, sleds, wagons,
carts, footballs and other athletic aids
And avoid those things that offer
menacing possibilities such as pop
guns, knives, swords, mechanical toys
which require the use of gasoline or
alcohol or other inflammable material;
and remember that all of baby's play
things find their way to his mouth
ana be guided accordingly.
Christmas offers many temptations
to transgress the simple health rules;
the temptation to over-eat, to become
overly fatigued, to disregard the need
Of adequate hours of sleep, is strong.
But, by planning the festivities and
the menu carefully, it is possible to
enjoy the day thoroughly without en-
croaching on health habits
The Christmas tree presents a fire
peril that mas cost many lives, and
1t Is timely to warn against Christmas
fires, and remind you that trees can
be decorated and lighted with safety.
The tree should be firmly set up so
that 1t will not topple over. small
electric lights should be used in place
Of candles, smoking or striking of
matches near the tree should be for
hidden, water should be available, and
lastly, the tree should be removed not
later than week after Christmas, as

PAY BILL SENT
TO CONFERENCE
Brookhart Seeks Agreement
on Retroactive Clause
Killed by House.

Carrying out plans he announced
earlier in the day, Senator Brookhart
of Iowa this afternoon had sent to
conference with the House the bill to
correct inequalities in Government en-
ployes' salary schedules.
The purpose in seeking a conference
was to discuss the House amendment
striking out the retroactive feature of
the bill. The conferees may meet later
today in an effort to speed up the final
agreement on the bill.
AS passed by the House, the bill
would grant increases totaling about
$l,500,000 to those Federal employees.
both in Washington and in the field
service, who were advanced only one
step under the WEIGH law. Senator
Brookhart said it would cost about
$3000,000 additional to have these ad-
Justments in salary date back to 1928,
but he said he feels that If 1t was
intended to give these employees an in
crease of two steps originally an effort
should be made tc retain the retro
active clause. Senator Brookhart re-
turned to the city this morning for
the purpose of helping to complete the
enactment of this measure.
Another House amendment remaining
to be settled restores to the personnel
classification board the authority to
review and revise ALLEGATIONS under the
classification law, which authority was
aftected by a decision Of the controller
general some time ago.
In most cases. the Brookhart- Lehlbach
bill would mean an increase of $50 a
year to those clerks who received only
$50 in 1928.

"KIDNAPED" YOUTH
RETURNS TO HOME
Exciting Vacation Tale of Abduc-

to Be False.

was back home today, his little vaca-
ton" in the Capital in search of ex-
citement completed.
Thomas was placed on train for
Chester by Detective Sergt. Clarence
Tally last night after he had signed
statement declaring the kidnapping story
he hold police Tuesday was myth and
that he had left home to go on little
vacation and have some excitement"
The youth had been held at the first
precinct since Tuesday, when he un-
wound a fantastic tale of having beer
kidnapped by gangsters in Chester,
threatened with death and finally
tossed from the machine of the gum
men in this city when they decided to
"spare him"
His father, however, had other ideas
when he heard of his sons plight and
a letter to police explaining that the
boy once before had run away and come
to Washington resulted in a grilling
which ended with the youth admitting
he had concocted the wild tale so police
would furnish money for his return fare
home.
The boys father yesterday forwarded
money for his transportation back tc
Chester.
