If you can spray when Scale seems

And do a real job of it, year on year:
If you can lick the Cooler to a finish
And send your fruit abroad without

Leaving your hopes and work blasted
And gather up your notes to face the

And do it so the world can never guess
If you can sleep Spring nights as
Winter clutches
Your slopes, just bursting into pink

And see them in the morning sun
change swiftly
From Life to deadening brown, yet
show no gloom;
If you can watch the Drought burn
up your apples
With rainless, dancing dazzle day by

And keep on thinning as you watch

And still have faith your work is go

If you can let your apples hang to

Nor yield to crafty pleas to sell them

If you can throw ALL bad ones in

HOME FOR BOARD SOUGHT.
Three Buildings Considered to Quarter
Finance Corporation.

Officials of the Office of Public Build
ingS and Public Parks and the Public
Buildings Commission are busying them
selves with finding home for the pro-
posed new finance reconstruction cor
pOration. Three buildings are under con-
sideration-the Hurley Wright Building,
Eighteenth street and Pennsylvania
avenue the old Department of Com
merce Building a block to the west
ward, and the Architects Building, at
1900 E street
Preliminary negotiations for housing
The corporation are being carried for
ward by Federal Reserve officials here
in day or two.
The Lighthouse Service of the De?
partment of Commerce recently vacated
the Hurley Wright Building and the
old Department of Commerce is now
entirely empty. The Architects Build
ing, recently acquired by the Federal
Government, has additional space
available for the new group.
There has been some talk of moving
parts Of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, which occupies the Hurley
Wright Building, into the old Com
merce Building, but a definite decision
on another Semoving for Uncle
Sam awaits formation of program
that will last through the coming year
1t is considered possible that either
the Department of Commerce, which
involves an annual rental of S15O,O0O
or the Hurley Wright Building. which
entails an annual rental of $4,000,
may be returned to the owner

LAVAL'S DEBT PLEA
TO U. S. HELD FUTILE
Settlement of Troubles Must Be
Sought in Europe, Is
View Here.

BY the Associated Press.
The latest European overture for war
debt postponement has found no en-
enlargement in Washington.
The American Government is ex-
pected to inform Premier Laval OF
France in response to his inquiry, that
a settlement of the troubles now vexing
European statesmen must be sought in
Europe, not here.
There is no disposition to be blunt
about it. nor to close the door entirely
to further American leniency. If the
European nations themselves take such
steps as to restore confidence among
themselves. a plea for further debt
postponement might find sympathy
here
Such united effort by Great Britain.
France and their sister powers across
the Atlantic, however, must precede any
American offer of further relief.
At the time of the Hoover-Laval con-
ference here 1t was clearly understood
on both sides that the initiative lay
entirely in Europe and in this respect
there mas been no change whatever
in the attitude of the American Gov
eminent.
German reparations and war debts
are regarded here as unrelated, nor
does the Government see any logic
in the attempt to pool the interests
OF those who owe the United States
Perhaps one or more may be unable
to pay but these are matters for in
dividual consideration, on which no
general commitment will be made in
advance.
Officials will not discuss the situa-
ton, on the theory that the American
position already is well known.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1932-01-19

American attitude toward proposal to
extend the Hoover moratorium until
some time toward the end of this year.
Reports from Paris that M Lava
had sounded out Ambassador Edge on
this plan were interpreted here as in
dicatlng an action prompted solely by
the domestic political situation in
France. 1t was understood there had
been no discussion of the plan between
French and English representatives.
Throughout the preliminary CONVEX
sations regarding the Lausanne Confer
ence tentatively scheduled for January
IS the British opinion has been that
no approach to Washington regarding
the possibility of extending the Hoover
moratorium would be necessary.
The British view has been that after
the European powers had met at
Lausanne and outlined their own pro-
posals, then the European plan might
be discussed with Washington.
There is no criticism Of Premier Laval
here for sounding out the United States
on extension of the moratorium. All
along the British government has been
trying to accommodate its views on the
Lausanne meeting to those OF France
and Germany. Any postponement OF
the conference depends more on the
French and German attitude than on
the British, but final decision y ex-
pected tomorrow or Thursday.

dence by which it hopes to send Fuel

der of family of four white persons as

threatened to get even" and an IL
year-old boy placed the prisoner in the
vicinity of the Davis home at the ap-
proXimate time of the crime.
With the selection of the Jury COM
pleted. the trial was expected to move
swiftly and court attaches predicted the
case would be in the hands of the jury
within three days.
The court has ordered the Jurors to
remain in. the building until a verdict
has been reached and sleeping accom-
modations for them have been provided.
The defense. it was understood was
prepared to present evidence placing
Lee a considerable distance from the
farm house at the time the murders
were committed
A police guard has been maintained for
Lee and each morning he is moved here
from the Baltimore City Jail where he
had been detained since his arrest The
guard returns the prisoner to Baltimore
each night.
