CAPITAL LANDMARK
ADDITIONS PLANNED
Masonic Temple, Bus Depot
and Stores Included
in Group.

Private builders here in the past few
wears have set up new landmarks in the
National Capital in wholesale numbers,
some of them monumental in character,
and more timely is the fact that numer-
Gus additional projects of special order
now are ION the boards" before archi-
tects, financiers and prospective builders.
One OF the notable facts regarding
many of the outstanding private de-
velopments here is the obvious accept
ance of the Federal character Of the
District and the extra care and cost
expended on them. to make such de-
veiopments fitting features of the Cap
ital.
One Of the projects of monumental
character which may be definitely an
nounced within the near future, Is the
proposed huge Masonic Temple, planned
for the large area known aS Temple
Heights, east of Connecticut avenue and
north of Florida avenue. A design for
this structure recently was laid before
President Hoover for his Information.
Among Largest.
This development, the subject Of long
study and planning by local Masonic
leaders, would be one Of the largest
privately built landmarks Of institu-
tional character here.
indicative of the prospects OF future
developments in the city are the ever
recurring reports Of negotiations being
conducted and plans being drawn Tor
additional buildings of important size
or location. Some of the rJlmored prof.
ectS do not materliZe, for the most
part either because promoters cannot
acquire desired building sites or, more
frequently, because financing cannot be
arranged. o. .....
Sometimes, it is because promoters
lack necessary financial backing or
have not properly worked cut o plan.
Also, In a growing city such Is Wash
ington, there are frequently current
rlmors having no authentic foundation,
which do not even gain Sufncient Gre
dulity to bring about published an
nouncement.
In the class of those proposed de-
velopments which are actually being
planned by architects employed by pro-
moters are those for a union bus termi-
nal to be erected in downtown wash
ington, provided necessary financial and
legal arrangements are concluded.
Bus Terminal Planned.
Frequently reports become current In
business circles here that one Of several
large and nationally known merchan-
dising establishments Is negotiating
for a location for establishment Of q
branch here. These to date lack official
confirmation.
One Of these reports has been that
Wanamaker's Of New York and Phila-
delphia was considering setting up q
large department store here on q valu-
able locati Another recent one was
that Macy's of New York was seeking q
Connecticut avenue location.
In another field, observers are pre-
dieting that the extensive Federal i'm

nue.. in the course of the next decade,
at least. will bring about q considerable
resultant change to the north side OF

STOCKS IN RALLY
AFTER EARLY DROP
Traders Turn to Buying Side
as Volume Decreases

al Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, June 12.-The best
prices in today's stock market we're
made In the last hour, wien the whole
list rallied vigorously after early un-
certainty.
The morning hours were character
tied by realizing and a moderate
amount Of short selling, resulting in a
generally lower range Of selling, but
volume fell of on the decline and even
tually the professional element turned
to the buying side.
The leaders at the end were U ls.
Steel among the industrialS, American
Telephone & Telegraph among the util-
tiles, and N. Y. Central among the rails.
The net result was to demonstrate that
the technical position is such that
stocks respond more readily to opera
tions for the rise than to offerings for
short account. 1t Is still a market
without public interest. but that is
always true at the end Of q major
decline.
Copper stocks were in supply from the
start because of the bearish copper
metal statistics. At the end of May
refined copper In North and South
America, according to the statement
given out today totaled 1886 short
tons, an increase of 30,746 tons over
April. Production was l02,695 tons in
May, against l00,50l in April, while
shipments in May were only II, ,949 tons,
against 86, ,785 in April.
Anaconda, Kennecott and American
Smelling e. Refining dropped back q
point or so on the showing. Alaska Ju-
neau seemed to have been abandoned by
the pool and was again in supply.
The rails, which had such a sudden
advance in the late trading on Thufs-
day, met realizing during the early trad
ing today and with one or two excep-
tions came down rather sharply. Union
Pacific held better than the rest. The
street is not yet convinced that the
Interstate Commerce Commission will
grant the rate increase asked, and that
even If 1t Is granted It will not have
an unfavorable effect ON traffic.

George S. Milnor of Chicago, general
manager of the Farmers National
Grain Corporation and the Grain Sta
bilization Cooperation. declared today
that marketing operations of the two
agencies had created higher values for
wheat producers during the 1930-31
season by to Is cents a bushel
The manager made the statement III
an address prepared for delivery at the
American Institute of Cooperation.
Minor said that during the Summer
of 1929 cash wheat sold at "ruinous
discounts relative to options and paid
tolls in millions OF dolia:S of added eX-
penses and demurraga cn cars which
had to be held on tracks for weeks and
months before they could be unloaded"
because of "deplorable" congestion.
I'm order to avoid a repetition of
conditions surrounding the previous
season." he said. "tha Farmers Ma
tional Grain Corporation, in conjunc-
tion with the Grain StabiliZation Cor
poration, began TO shift its huge hold
ings from every point that held the
slightest indication of congs ST on. Thus.
in ample time, millions of bushels OF
old crop wheat were gotten completely
out of the way of the huge oacGShing
movement of the new crop grain.
Certainly no individual private
agency or any group of private agencies
could have accomplished these re-
suits"

PARIS, April 2.--Pola Negri, film

Mdivani
The divorce was granted on the
grounds that the prince had aban-
doned his wife
Miss Negri sailed for New York
aboard the liner Paris Wednesday.
"A woman'S place is in the home
and Pola did not seem to know it,,
Prince Serge said.
Only little over a year ago, when
the pair became reconciled in the
same court after Pola's first attempt
to break the marriage bonds, the
actress likened herself and her
prince to cooling doves.
Pola Negri gets no alimony by the
decision Of the court.
Despite Polas statement that
Mary McCormic, opera singer, had
nothing to do with the divorce,
Paris believed today that there
would be a new princess Mdivani
before long.
