CITY HEADS GIVEN
HOOvER'S PRAISE
Well Satisfied With Ap-
pointeeS, Akerson Says at
Testimonial Luncheon.

President Hoover is more satisfied
with his selection of Maj. Gen. Herbert
B. Crosby and DR.. Luther H. Reichel-
derfer as District Commissioners than
with any other appointments he has
made during the past year, George
AkerSon, secretary to the Chief Execu-
tive. declared yesterday at welcoming
testimonial luncheon rendered the
Board of Commissioners by the Wash
1ngton Advertising Club.
The President spent much time and
thought in the selection of the two
Commissioners, and obtained the best
men available for the office, Mr.. Aker-
son asserted. Speaking for Mr.. Hoover,
he requested the cooperation of the
club for the new Commissioners, and
particularly the support of Washing
tons newspapers.
Introduces officials.
He then introduced the two new Dis
trict officials, together with Col. William
B. Ladue, Engineer Commissioner. Gen.
Crosby he termed "tactful disciple
MARIAN"
Both DR. Reichelderfer and Gen.
Crosby said their slogan for the first
Few months of their administration at
least would be stop look and listen"
But we won't sit down on the job"
the retired Army officer added with
emphasis.
Both expressed appreciation of the
manner in which they have been re-
ceived by the citizens of Washington.
Responsibility Felt.
Col Ladue said the Commissioners
feel the responsibility of striving for the
best interest of Washington all the
more because Its citizens cannot vote
and did not elect them.
Those who welcomed the new Com
missioners included George Pitt, preSi-
dent of the Washington Board of Trade;
Mark Lansburgh, president of the Mer-
chants and Manufacturers Association;
Dr. George G. Havenner, president OF
the Federation of Citizens Associations;
Mrs. Mary Lewis of the SoroptomiSts'
Club, and Ernest Johnston. president of
the Advertising Club, who presided at
the luncheon.

WOMEN CENSURED
 FOR TEX7|LEL0SS
New Uses of Cotton Help Boost
 Amount Consumed

Paris, Sept. 8 (UP) - American women's refusal to wear f1ouncy pet ticoats and underthings is a contrib utory cause toward the worldwide textile depression, according to Ed ward T. Pickard, chief of the tex tile division of the United States de- partment of commerce. who is in Paris on a survey of the European textile business.
 There are two basic causes for the excess of production over con- sumption,' Pickard told the United Press. The first is the diminishing amount of textiles employed in wom- ems wear and for household use, and the second is the production of textiles by countries like India, China and Egypt which were for merly consuming countries"
 Pickard declared the foundations of the textile industry were basic ally sound" and that the depression in the United States and England might be overcome in a few years, providing, however, clever experts find more new uses for textiles and rayons, including artificial wool and silk.
 Every month, Pickard explained. experts of the department of com merce are discovering new uses for textile goods which aids in bucking up the diminishing market and tend ing to prevent the capacity toward overproduction to increase alarm ingly. Cotton street markers and cotton airplane roof markers are ab- sorbing a small percentage of the oversupply.
 The most discourag ging factor in the world textile situation is Great Britain's diminished export of tex tiles. England annually exports ap- proXimately 90 per cent of the tex tiles produced in the region of Man. chester. In the past five years her exports have been cut in half, or 50 per cent by the movement toward textile independence of India, China, Japan, and Egypt, formerly heavy purchasers of British textiles. Thus every country is producing textiles in greater quantities than required The French market is undergoing a serious depression.

VETERAN SQUARBLE
 LEAVES U. 5. COLD
Divisions Argue As to "Who
 Won the War;

Chateau Thierry, Sept. s (CP) - Veterans of the Second and 26th American divisions are disputing the right of the second division to place it's bronze memorial on the famous tower of Belleau wood.
 The ruins of that tower, which served the Germans well as a ma chine gun stronghold and was only captured after violent hand-to-ha fighting, still stand on the hillside edge of the famous forest. But above the door is the bronze tablet to tell posterity that there the sec ond division won undying fame.
 The |. s. government is neutral in the affair, but the official posters around Belleau wood, now main tained as an American memorial park, says clearly:
 "The second l.. $. divisions fought it's way into this forest; the 26th division fought it's way out
 In spi5e of that, however, only the memorial of the second division is on the old stone tower. Every thing else in Belleau wood is just as the armies left it. The German ma chine guns are rusting in the shall low pits where they stood, and in a few years all trace will have van ished of that fortified stronghold which took so many American lives

Record Breaking Drive
 By New Buick Eight

Driving new Buick Eight, Stu" Hawley, chief of the road map division of the Texas Company has established a new transcontinental and return record. Hawley broke the previous record from Los Angeles to New York and returR-hY Is hours and 26 minutes.
 In making the sensational drive Hawley used to stock model Buick Eight coupe taken right off the fac tory assembly line, and throughout the trip it was fueled with regular Texaco gasoline and motor oil. Hawley's total elapsed time for the trip was III hours and 3s minutes.
 The purpose of the record break ing drive was to prove that it is possible to travel across the conti- nent in less than four days without undue haste CT hardship. Some few years ago nine days was considered the maximum for such a journey.
 The new Buick Eight is the greatest performer in it's field said Hauley at the completion of the drive. my trip has absolutely con- vinced ue of that fact. Throughout the entire journey the Buick deliv- cred it's full measure of perform ance and comfort. It was the most thrilling drive of my life

Chevrolet Introduces One

Introduction of rev one and one-half ton truck by the Chevrolet Motor company was announced last week by the Chevrolet Motor Co.
 Coming directly after the an rouncement by Chevrolet that pro- duction of light delivery trucks for the first six months of this year ex- ceeded the same period last year by twenty per cent, the introduction of this improved larger truck seems destined to add to the growing i'm portance of Chevrolet in the low priced commercial car field. More than 1,160.o00 trucks have been built by Chevrolet since the com pany began to turn out this type.
 The new chassis is built complete with cab, and affiliations with body manufacturers enable the purchaser to choose the exact type of body for the work to be done from thirty six different types. Chevrolet deal- CTS are supplied with complete de- tails on the various bodies available.

HAIR NEW CLUE IN
 KIDNAPPING CHARGE
Locks Found in Bottom of Old
 Trunk At 0ne0nta

Oneonta, N. Y, Sept. tP1Threc bottom of an old trunk at a farm house formerly owned by Charles Edward Pope were regarded by po- lice today as clues linking him with the Kidnapping of Grace Budd two years ago.
 The curls, tied with a ribbon, were found in a trunk in a garage behind the farm house by state police wh) searched the premises at the request of New York authorities. Police said the hair undoubtedly was that of a child and resembled closely the color of the Budd girls hair.
 Pope, a 66-year old caretaker. was arrested last week when his cstranged wife told police she had seen him with a child shortly after 10-year old Grace Budd was taken from her home at 405 West 70th street June 3, 1928, by a man who said he was taking her to a birth day party.
 Mrs. Della Budd, the child's moth CT, and neighbor identified Pope after his arrest as the man who came to the Budd home ostensiblY to hire Gruce's older brother as a farm hand. The man gave the name Frank Howard.
 Despite the identification, police found nothing else to dispute Pope's denial of the Kidnapping charge and were about to release him when the hair was found.

DROUGHT'S EFFECT
 MAY BE LENGTHY
Problem Becomes More Acute In August, Survey Shows

Washington, Sept. s UP)- Drought has dealt blow to Ameri- can agriculture despite the possi- bility that the surplus wheat crop may be consumed to compensate for shortage of corn. according to information gathered by agriculture officials.
 The sharpest impact of the disas- ter may not be felt until mid minter. Feeding of wheat to live stock in place of corn may obliterate the surplus which has created poli- tical turmoil in the wheat belt, Secretary of Agriculture Hyde be- lieves.
 However, wheat would be fed to stock only so long as it remained as cheap or cheaper than corn, and un- less it could be disposed of for feed at a price considerably in excess of corn prices the return probably would not satisfy wheat raisers.
 Analysis of 30,0oO to 10000 re- plies to questionnaires distributed throughout the United States by the agriculture department shows the drought problem to have become more critical during August
 Hyde authorized the statment here that the shortage of feed crops now is developing into national rather than a local issue.
 In partial compensation for vast damage to feed grains, Hyde held out to wheat producers the prospect that their surplus would be dispos- ed of as a substitute for corn in fattening stock This would pre- vent 8 burdensome carry over of the current wheat crop into the next crop season.
 This prediction was conditional upon human consumption this year approximating the average human
