representatives Of the Arlington
county chamber Of commerce,
board Of county supervisors and
national capital park and plan
ming commission, it has been re-
vealed here by State Senator
Frank L. Ball.
This meeting, which is for the
purpose of considering the proper
development of Virginia's ap-
} proaches to the National Capital,
was to have been held yesterday,
but the Governor-elect found it
impossible to meet the delegation
at that time.
Important Matters Stated
According to the arrangements
completed between DR.. Pollard,
Senator Ball and Keith A. BrUm
bach. president of the Arlington
county chamber of commerce. the
meeting will take place inmedi-
ately after the convening of the
General Assembly.
At this meeting it is proposed
TO acquaint the incoming Gov
ernor with the provisions of the
Champion park bill, the necessity
for the immediate construction of
the Lee Boulevard and other ap-
proaches to the Arlington Memo
rial Bridge. and other matters
Of vital interest to Washington
and Northern Virginia.
In connection with the opening
of the General Assembly, it has
been revealed by Delegate Hugh
Reid, of Clarendon. that there is
movement on foot for the, intro
duction of general legislation that
may change the forms of govern
ment Of all of the counties of the
State.
He has talked with the repre-

government are believed to be
out of date, Reid said, and it is
highly possible that a general
change may be affected during
the coming session.
AS to just what he will do with
respect to Arlington depends. in
a large degree, on the general
legislation, Reid said, but, regard
less of everything else. he will in
troduce a separate bill to give the
people a right to vote on whether
they wish to incorporate. While
he believes that the issue will be
voted down when placed before
the voters, he desires to settle the
matter at once and for all.
If the general legislation fails
or if it is not held suitable to Ar
longton county, other measures
will be introduced to give the
! county an opportunity to adopt
the commission form of govern
ment. either with or without a
county manager. he said.

LAMONT SUMMONS
FIRE CONFERENCE
Seeks Concerted Action of U.
S. Activities for Protec-
ton of Buildings.

For the purpose of considering con-
certed action of Government activities
here to increase fire protection TO Gov
eminent records and buildings, Secre-
tary of Commerce Lamont has called
conference of representatives OF several
departments and independent establish
ments for Thursday, April 3, at the De-
partment of Commerce, to go over the
whole situation. Some interdepart-
mental fire prevention committee may
result.
In his call for the conference, Secre-
tary Lamont referred to both the White
House and the Capitol fires as having
received public attention out Of proper
ton to the actual loss but he recalled
that disastrous fires had occurred and
still can occur.
The Government should take some
steps to apply the principles Of fre
prevention which it is developing to
prevent fires in private property, the
Secretary believed.
In the Bureau of Standards, r. H
Ingberg, chief of FIRE resistance, has
developed a considerable amount OF
data on fire prevention and fire pro-
lection which may be of help to the
whole Government in protecting its own
property, it was pointed out The Fed
eral Government carries no IRE tnsur-
ance on any OF Its property.
The joint activities Of an interdepart-
mental committee, 1t was pointed out
could form an easy contact between the
units and agencies engaged in the de-
sign, construction and care Of Govern
ment buildings. It also could serve to
give information on the hazards Of ex-
listing conditions, the effectiveness
proper design, use and installation de-
tails of fire resisting materials and cor
struction and installation of FIRE extin-
gushing devices.
The classification of records from the
standpoint of immediate and future
value and the respective degrees of
protection to be accorded them are
other subjects which may receive at
tention from the conference.
Secretary Lamont will open the con-
ference. which is expected to organize
with its own officers

NEW VEGETABLE HAILED

Chayote, one-Seeded Squash, Has
Many Uses.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. LR.-An hum
bic vegetable newcomer from Mexico Is
on the way to fame and fortune in
Florida and other sections of the
South where the soil does not freeze.
It is the chayote, one-seeded squash
introduced by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture.
The roots, resembling yams, are de-
licious. So are the shoots, which are
prepared as are asparagus. The vines
may be fed to stock and it has been
found that bees produce superior honey
from the flowers. The Chayotes also
can be made into pickles.

ers Employed to Detriment
of Home Marts.
BY JUNIUs B. WOOD.

MANAGUA, Nicaragua, March 2e
Delayed (CD.N) One striking trend
Of American trade in Mexico and Cen
trail America clearly shows that the
present unemployment and factory
overproduction in the United States
would be greatly relieved II American
corporations doing business abroad would
employ citizens Of the United States to
sell American instead Of European-made
goods.
In the last few years American cor
porations, financed by American capital,
have acquired factories In Europe and
have become the strongest factors in
driving American commerce from for
eign markets by restricting the output
OF industry In the United States. It is
not an ordinary fight or competition,
since the controlling corporation merely
w1thdraws its American-made product
from the market and substitutes the
output of its European factories.
Even more widespread is the prefer
ence OF many American corporations to
employ citizens Of European countries
instead OF citizens of the United States
whenever possible in their Offices, sales
rooms and factories abroad.
This undermining of American COM
merce and industry by American cor
porations, with the attendant decrease
of employment and consumption of raw
materials at home, is noticeable in
South America, but it is even more con-
spicuous in Mexico and Central Amer
ica-at the very borders of the United
States. Here one can see the novel spec
tacle Of representatives of the Anneri-
can State and Commerce Departments
using their official influence with these
governments to secure big concessions
for American corporations, though the
equipment they will install is manu-
featured In Europe, while factories In
the United States manufacturing the
same equipment are discharging work.

NEW START IS
URGED TO CUT
WORLD NAVIES
Farley Must Begin All Over
for Success, Says Former
British Sea Lord.
BY HENRY T. RUSSELL
United Press STAFF Correspondent


LONDON, March Is. Lord
Bridgeman Of Leigh, former first
lord of the British admiralty in the
last conservative government, said
today he thinks the London naval
conference should start over again,
dropping the points on which the
delegates Of the five powers obvi-
ously were deadlocked and giving
attention to an extension Of the
Washington treaty and the reduc-
ton of battleships andsgun calibreS.
'I believe it would be easy to get
an agreement" Lord Bridgeman said.
IF they would only go about it in
the right way"
Start All Over Again
Leaning on the huge mantlepiece
in his vast private residence
in Westminster, Lord Bridgeman,
white-haired statesman, a delegate
to the Geneva naval conference in
1927, which failed, told what he
thought the right way would be.
why not start anew" he queried.
Extend the Washington treaty for
a few years. Limit all battleship re-
placements to $4,000 tons. Limit gun
caliberS to IL or 1875 inches instead
of the present Is. Agree to max
imum building programs in the va
riouS classes of ships for the next
five years, allowing certain elasticity
for smaller powers, such as the right
to transfer tonnage from one class
to another.
No Building Competition
personally, I don't believe dras-
tic disarmament will make peace
any more certain, but for the sake
of economy 1 do think limitation
very desirable. AS far as the United
States and Great Britain are con-
cerned 1 think the peace Of the
world as safe if both have large ma
vies as if they hadn't.
cat any rate, I consider there
will be no building competition
between the United States and
Great Brttain-at least, not so far
as Britain is concerned. Baldwin,
when premier, said that himself be-
fore the Labor government came
into power"
