Mrs. WOOtten Praised
Boston Papers Pay Tribute to Her
Artistic Photographs

Mrs. Bayard Wootten exhib-
tied recently in Boston a collec-
ton of her camera studies of
characters and scenes in the
South.
"The very charming and un-
usual photographs taken by Bay
ard Wootten now on view at the
Fine Arts THEATRE says the
Boston Herdld, ARE well worth
visit. Most of them have been
taken in North Carolina of
Southern types, white and black,
of little negro shanties, of pines
and palms, the latter obviously
taken a bit farther South. Mrs.
WOotten had a certain amount
of artistic training, but her skill
in photography has been ac-
quired by her own efforts. Her
subjects show a great variety of
taste, and she is particularly in
terested in character studies"
'"The portraits" says the
Christian Science Monitor, "are
Of picturesque types chosen
among the mountaineers of

to make these persons interest

rapidly. In II years, if Con-
gress maintains the existing
laws and adds the new laws
which are in prospect, the vet
erans will be costing the Ameri-
can people not one quarter but
the whole of the present costs
of the federal government.
"In the whole history of mod
ern nations there is no case in
which the returning soldiers
have exacted such a tribute from
their own people.
1.-The financial strain which
these expenditures create would
itself be conclusive against the
continuation of the system. But
the moral and political objec-
tions are overwhelming. This
is republic. If one group of
citizens can force all the others
to pay them exorbitant sums to
which they have no equitable
claim, there is no reason why
any other well-organized group
should not do the same thing
On that road lies chaos and the
destruction of the republic. AL
ready Congress, out of fear Of
the organized ten per cent or so
of voters whom the veterans are
believed to control in each dis
trict, has shown such craven fear
that it may truthfully be said
that where veterans are con-
cerned, the sovereignty of the
United States has ceased to op-
crate.
"To fight this abuse, there
fore, is to fight not only for JUS
tice and the relief of the taxpay-
er, but for the restoration of
self-government within the
Union"

everything except color, and in
the subtle realm of light and
shade it is made to do wonders" "
"Th;s is an unusually fine ex-
hibition Of photography" says
the Advertiser. ut justifies the
opinion that photography (as
well as portraiture) is arfavenue
in which women should excel.
The photographs have, first, a
sympathetic feeling for the SUBJ
ject and, second, a concern for

seems to gain their confidence,
for they seem natural and

ten makes no attempt to en-
phasize or contrast qualities !;
she seems to prefer a laissez-
faire policy with the camera.
The photographs familarize us
with regions and persons
strange and impressive"
"The lens, as it is used by Mrs.
Wootten," says the American,

provided $4,000 hospital beds.
1t is paying disability pensions
to 100000 veterans in amounts
ranging from SO to $3.50 a month
depending upon the degree of
disability. 1t is paying death
compensation to $4,000 widows,
$4,000 children and $4,000 pa
rents. 1t is also contributing its
share of the war-risk insurance
costs which provide monthly al
lowances to 1900 totally dis
abled veterans, $4,000 widows,
$4,000 children, 10000 parents
and $4,000 sisters and brothers.
Under the system set up, a total
}y disabled veteran who has in
surance and his pension receives,
in addition to free medical care,
about S15O a month.
So much for the promises
8 made and the manner in which
they have been kept. Before look
ing at the abuses which have
been superimposed upon the
lust obligation of the govern
ment, let us recall the figures
as to what happened during
the war. In round numbers
100000 men were in uni
form. OF these half, or 2,100,-
900, went overseas. Of these
$4,000 were killed in action or
died of wounds or other causes !;
100000 were wounded, invalid
ed from service, or missing.
Thus at the outside the nation
has debt to families Of 10000
men who were killed and a debt
to 250,0O0 veterans who were
casualties during the war.
1T is therefore rather start
ling to discover" writes Walter
Lippmann in he Woman s
Home Companion, that the
government is paying disability
allowances to over 100000 vet
erans Of an army that had total
casualties Of about 100000.
When one realizes that q very
considerable proportion OF men
rated as casualties during the
wax are fully recovered and in
quite as good health as most men
of their age, it is plain beyond
all dispute that the government
is paying at least twice as much
as it ever promised to pay.
"The explanation is quite
simple. By a series Of laws,
drawn up by the veterans or
CARNATIONS and passed by Con-
gress, often over the veto of the
President, ex-service men who
came through the war unscath
ed, who may in fact never have
left the United States, have been
treated as if they had been
wounded in battle. This is the
abuse which has caused all the
trouble.
"In this year of depression
the veterans have taken from
the treasury considerably more
money than the whole yield of
the income tax. But the worst
aspect Of the matter is that, un-
less many of the present laws
are repealed, and unless the
progress Of veterans legislation
is halted. the cost will increase

REPORT IS STUDIED
Findings on Plan to Beautlfy
Shaft Grounds to Be Made
Public Soon.

Of6c,als of the National Capital Park

a report that probably will be made
to Congress shortly concerning the pro-
posed Washington Monument gardens.
Maj. D. H. Gillette, engineer of the
commission, has been assigned the task
Of writing this report. He Is now COM
ptling the data secured by the engineers
as result of the boring operation.
which convinced them that no great
amount of earth can be taken from or
added to the area surrounding the base
of the shaft without endangerng the
monument. Borings were taken to de-
termine the distance down to bedrock.
Lieut.. Col. U. s. Grant, Sd. vice chair
man and executive officer Of the COM
mission, is expected to make the report
public early in the new year after 1t
has been sent to President Hoover for
transmittal to Congress. Congress ap-
propriated $4,000 for a study Of the
Washington Monument gardens pro-
posal, first officially advanced in the
plan of 1901.
Fine Arts Commission officials have
suggested that the foundation of the
washington Monument be carried down
to bedrock, so that the designers may
do anything they wish in the way Of
creating gardens around the shaft.

SICK Leave STUDIED
BY BUDGET BUREAU
Report to Be Made to President
Under Provisions of
Economy Act.

The Budget Bureau is making an in
tensive study of the sick leave situa-
ton in the Government, with view to
making a report to President Hoover,
under provisions Of the economy act.
Already several months have been
spent in this survey and it Is expected
that some kind Of specific recon-
mendations eventually will be made to
the Chief Executive before March 4.
The nature of these recommendations,
however, so far has not been definitely
determined. -.
A wide disparity has been discovered
in the sick leave regulations In effect
throughout the Government service.
Some OF them are based on specific law,
while others are based only on regula-
tions. It Is understood there is a pos
sibility that the President could accom-
plish a certain degree Of uniformity
among those which are based on regu-
lations It is considered, however. that
the possibility Of getting through this
short session Of Congress any compre-
hensive reorganization Of the Govern

isting law Is remote. .A.-

Future of Rural Areas 0CCu.
pies Final Session of
Association.
The future Of Americas rural areas,

The future Of Americas rural areas,
whose populations have been greatly
cut into by postwar migration to
cities. was under discussion this after
noon at the closing session of the Asso-
ciation Of American Geographers at the
Shoreham Hotel.
The final session was devoted entire
lv to open discussion of the problem,
thrown before the gathering at the an
nual banquet last night in speech by
O. E. Baker of the Bureau of Agri-
cultural Economics of the Department
of Agriculture, retiring president of the
association.
Various Subjects Covered.
The various subjects up for discus
sion under the broad theme of Mr..
Bakers talk included land utilization
closer knitting Of large rural areas
and OF producers of like products,
simplification of transportation in rural
areas to bring about the closer knitting
of agricultural communities, and extern
sion of modern conveniences. such as
waste disposal, electricity and gas, to
outlying areas.
At this mornings session a number
Of papers on various subjects was read,
dIlQ ScOSTdpIleIS, IIlOSI VI WIlOul are
connected with universities and colleges
throughout the country, continued study
Of the map files Of the Library Of
Congress and the State. Commerce, In
terror and Agriculture Departments.
Population Balance.
At last nights session Mr. Baker de-
clared that a return to the rural sec
tions Of the country Of large part Of
that population that has left the farms
since the war will be necessary to re-
store the population balance of the
country and to meet the changing eco
nomic needs. One OF the worst factors
of the farm-to-city movement has been,
he said, the consequent fall in the birth
rate in this country. The Nation will
be fortunate, he declared, If the popula-
ton remains stationary during the next
10 years. but "back-to-the-f farm
movement would 90 long way toward
remedying this evil.
He pictured the extension Of power
and other facilities usually associated
with city residence into the rural sec
tions as factors which would hasten
the return to the soil of those who have
sought but failed to find better livings
IN the urban centers. =.

CONVICTED ATTORNEY
ASKS CASE REVIEWED
Abner Siegal Seeks to Upset Ver-
dict in Bribing Of District
Jail Guard.

Abner Siegel, Washington attorney
who was convicted Of bribing guard
at the District Jail to falsify Jail records
to support the alibi of one of Siegal's
clients, yesterday petitioned the United
States Supreme Court for q review.
At the attorneys trial it was alleged
he gave Harry S. Deane, the jail guard
$3.50 to change the records so as to show
Vincenzo Damiani, held at Wilkes
Barre, Pa. as an accessory to two muir
ders there, was in the District Jail
when the murders were committed
Siegal was sentenced to IS months in
the penitentiary
In the petition, Siegal insisted the
section Of the District Code under
which he had been indicted did not ap-
ply to bribery of guard at the District
Jail: that the acts Of Deane, under the
direction of Col. William L. Peake, su-
perintendent of the Jail, were not with
in the scope Of Deane's employment or
lawful duties that the District Court Of
Appeals had wrongly assumed that Col.
Peake had delegated a part of his Off
cial authority to Deane; that If Deane
accepted bribe OF $3.50 it was not to
influence any conduct officially imposed
on him; that the trial court had
wrongly held the bribe offered Deane
was intended to influence his actions on
matter coming within his official du-
ties or control, and that Deane's char
acter for truth and veracity had been
impeached.
