In a certain section of Georgetown,
almost in the shadow of the convent
Euilt in 1899, the modern touch of
science and twentieth century archi-
lecture has rested upon a group Of
houses more than a century old and
transformed them into residences, the
last word" in modern comfort and
convenience.
Although the charm of colonial days
still fingers about the quaint entrances
and the inclosed gardens glimpsed in
the rear of these houses, electricity,
running water and the ultra modern
"oil-burner" testify to the passing of
time and the gap between the genera
tions Of then and now"
Preserves Past Age.
Cuddled between two of these mod
ernized old homes is small brick
house whose only concession to a newer
day is the fresh coat of paint, which
upon first glance makes it distinguish
able from its neighbors. When you
step from of the brick walk and enter
behind the front door, timorously
opened by little gray-haired lady with
smiling eyes, you leave time behind you.

WOODCOCK PLANS
TO RESUME TRAVEL
Western Enforcement Modes
to Be Studied Before
Going to Honolulu.
81 the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Prohibition Director Woodcock is
about to resume his travels, inspecting
first hand the efforts of his dry agents
and the conditions they are meeting.
Hurriedly recalled to the Capital some
weeks ago by President Hoover and At
torney General Mitchell as he was about
to sail for Honolulu, Woodcock has been
ton measures up to the floor of Con-
gress.
AS soon as money matters are settled,
he said today, he plans to take up just
where he left off, first visiting the Min
nesota district and then the West Coast
before sailing for Hawaii
He was enthusiastic about the prog
ress his small army of dry agents has
made since he became the Federal pro-
hibition chief last July l..
Congressional action to the contrary
Notwithstanding, Woodcock made clear
today the bureau will continue publica-
ton of pamphlets and educational mono
graphs designed to disseminate facts
about prohibition. The House Tuesday
struck out paragraph granting de-
ficiency appropriation of $4,000 for
education, but left an appropriation of
approximately $543,000 for the bureau
unchanged.
Some $4,000 still remains Of the
$50, 900 prohibition education fund voted
for the present fiscal year, and Wood
cock said five new monographs we're
planned, to be distributed through a
mailing list of nearly 10000 persons.

to St Paul completes an 11,000-mile
line in a north-to-south direction,
reaching from Iklavik, in. the frozen
Canadian Yukon. where mails hitherto
have Travelled by dog teams, down
through the temperate and torrid zones

at Buenos Aires.
Mr.. Glover is expected to represent
the department at the opening of the
