Play Will Be GiUen

Based on the life of George
Washington, an original play
written especially for the occa-
sion, will be performed here next
year during the Washington Bi-
centennial. Two famous authors
already have announced their in
tention of submitting plays to
the bicentennial committee for
consideration.
They are Charlton Andrews.
New York playwright and author
of "A Parfit Gentil Knight" )"
"Bluebeard's Eighth Wife" and
other plays, and Paul Kester,
noted Virginian writer, who is
the author of half a hundred
plays. Among Mr.. Kester's stage

BRYAN Halls LIQUOR VETO
Illinois Congratulated
on Having Governor
Like Ennmerson

SALEM, ILL.,, July 30.--Gov.
Charles w. Bryan CD of
Nebraska, in a statement lauding
Gov. L. L. Emmerson CR) Of
Illinois for the latter's action in
vetoing a bill to repeal the States
prohibition laws, said yesterday
that he hoped EmmerSon's stand
would earn him a place on the
1882 Republican ticket. He added,
however:
But If you want to know
my honest opinion, the Republi-
cans will not have a China
mans chance in 1882"
Governor Emmerson's veto of
the wet bill brought this further
praise from Governor Bryan:
II compliment Illinois on
having a governor with the
moral courage to veto a bill
which would cause the State to
Secede from the nation in the
enforcement of temperance
laws"

is paying a brief visit to Salem,

IN SPITE Of
DEPRESSION
UndernouriShment Noticeable
In Past Hard Times Absent
Now, Say Medical Experts

Health conditions of the United
States have been affected little
by the long business depression,
judging from official reports re-
ceived by the Public Health
Service.
There is no epidemic of conSe-
quence in the country, although
some infantile paralysis exists in
New York city and in scattered
sections. There are fewer cases
than last year.
Seasonal Increases
Som. increase in typhoid has
been noted during the summer,
but this, like infantile paralysis,
Is . seasonal development and is
present annually.
While officials said it is diff
cult to pin diseases on industrial
depreSSionS, it is significant that
there has been no increase in the
death rate.
Food Factor Cited
Hard times of the past had a
tendency to increase nutritional
diseases because of the lack of
health-giving content to food or
to an insufficiency of food.

Alley Elimination Is Dead
District in No Position to Stand Heavy Expenses.

There was much chance that the alley elimination bill
backed by the National Capital Park and Planning Commis
sion would get anywhere Congress this session. but that
small chance has been killed by adverse recommendations
from the District Commissioners and the Budget Bureau.
The latter finds the bill is contrary to the Presidents
financial program and the Commissioners say the city
finances now will not warrant the project
The Park and Planning Commission and other official and
unofficial organizations for Identification have joined in
comprehensive and costly plan for the wpng out of
alleys and their buildings replacing them with attractive
streets and modern buildings.
The Municipal Center project commits this city to
extraordinary expenditures in coming years and is hardly
likely that Washington taxpayers going to ndorse other
improvement plans that will into millions of dollars.

In our town, two stores re-
Gently cut their sales forces.
In one store, thirty-six women
were released-in the other,
twenty-five.
One store released married
women and kept the single
girls.
The other store kept the mar
ried women and released the
single girls.
A survey was taken Of the
married women workers-both
of those who were released and
those who were kept. In both
cases it was shown that prac-
tically all were serious workers
who were helping to pay for
homes or who were supporting
children. In several cases, they
were also supporting i'll or idle
husbands.
The BOss's Views
Eyes, I know these facts"
said one proprietor, but I don't
think it helps matters, in the
long run, to employ a married
woman. It's apt to make graft
ers of men. And the children
get to running the street. The
place for a woman when she
marries is in her own home. II
she goes out to work, she either
takes a job from a man or from
some single girl who has no
other means of support. That's
why I discharged the married
women and kept the single
girls"
II see things just opposite"
said the other proprietor. IT
think the married woman needs
the job more than the single
girl. Single girls aren't really
as helpless as you'd think. Most
of them are living with their
own families or their relations.
And if they do lose a job tenn
porarily it doesn't involve so
many dependents as it does
when the married woman work.
er loses hers.
Married Women Better
Besides, in time like this,
when you must get your
moneys worth for every dollar
you spend, the married woman
is a better investment than the
single girl. She has so much
more at stake and she has
more Judgment. She is more
steady and reliable and not so
man n-crazy. If I had my way,
I'd never employ anything but
married women workers"
The discharged women were
also in disagreement. The sim

NOT YET AT THE DOCK.

It used to be Join the Navy and see the world"
Nowadays it's Join the Navy and the poorhouse
Does that sound like joke? Possibly. 1t happens, how
ever, to be true.
Secretary Adams of the Navy reveals in his last annual
report that since 1908 naval pay has increased II cent
The cost of living in that time has increased fully 100
cent, and in good many items, 200 or 300 per cent
That is big difference Ask the Navy if you doubt it.
And don't get the idea that everybody in the Navy fed
clothed and sheltered free of charge by benevolent
ment.
naval officer must pay for his food uniforms and civilian
Clothes and maintain his family home he has oneau
pay that would have met living costs twenty ago. but
is totally inadequate today.
We give naval officers expensive technical education
hold them responsible for millions of dollars worth of fighting
equipment and keep them salaries that white collar
worker in office would laugh at
No wonder of the abest in the Navy quit and
civilian life salaries several times higher than Uncle
Sam pays them.
You can't blame them for it. You can, however, blame
Uncle Sam for it. You ask him. through your Congress-
why the Navys ship has not yet in and when if
ever it is going to come in.
It something like twenty years overdue That is
twenty years too much.
