PARTY PLATFORMS
Calls Republican PIanks
"PreposterouS" and Demo-
cratic Misleading.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


NEW YORK, July 16 (N.ANA).-
Robert Maynard Hutchins, secretary of
Yale University at "a, dean of the Yale
Law School at 20 and president of the
University of Chicago when he was 80,
has just sailed for Europe for a seven
week vacation.
With him went Mrs. Hutchins, who
was Maude Phelps McVeigh of Bay
shore. Long Island. In a rented boat,
named the Swifts, they will journey
through the canals of Holland until
they get tired of windmill and delft
scenery, when they will proceed to
Switzerland and France.
Just before he sailed, DR.. Hutchins
was requested to give his views regard
ing present economic conditions. and
he replied that as there is no logical
reason for everlasting prosperity, so
there is no reason for continued de-
preston. He asserted that one reason
for the present state of things is that
we are paying in 1882 the money we
borrowed In 1929. paying it at a time
when the difference y "7luo C the

dollar Is certainly over 50 per cent.

Asked what he thought of the re-
cent national conventions. the planks
and the nominations, the 33-year-old
college head called attention to the
fact that he was an educator and not
a politician and therefore his was only
citizen. Having thus declared his posi-
ton, he spoke with considerable frank
ness.
Protest Vote for Thomas.
"a person of my views" said DIR.
Hutchins, could vote for Roosevelt
only If he fills In certain holes in his
record and platform, and could not
vote for Hoover. no matter what he did.
Does that mean I might vote for Nor
man Thomas? Why, yes; but only as
a measure of protest and because !
know he cannot be elected If my vote
would elect him, I wouldn't vote for
him.
DR.. Hutchins said he thought the
Republican platform the most pre-
posterous political document of CEN
tury." He approved in the ma n the
Democratic platform but said certain
planks didn't mean anything, and were
ambiguous and open to misconstruction.
He said the platform lodged two vital
issues, tariff and foreign relations.
He also spoke of what he termed the
illogical attitude of the United States
toward other nations, saying that ave
had long been urging them to get to-
gether on the debt question and decide
what they could do, but that, when
they did get together, we become an
noyed and charged they were trying
to gang" US.

PALACE HOUSES
DIRT FARMER

PARIS G.N.SO-DeStiny, which
so frequently plays odd pranks in
the life of men, has placed dirt
farmer" President in the palace
where the beautiful Madame
Pompadour reigned supreme in
the Eighteenth century when
Louis XIV ruled France.
Albert Lebrun, the fourteenth
President of France. came into
the Presidency through the assas-
sination of President Doumer by
Paul Gorguloff. The election of
Lebrun at Versailles by the Ma
tional Assembly was a triumph of
French democracy, for Lebrun
was a ploughboy in his native
Lorraine before he entered Ecole
Polytecnique.
Later he served with the artilE
lery, and during the war COM
manded a squadron at Verdun in
1914. 1t was 1900 before he
actively took up politics.
At vacation time, when Lebrun's
official duties as president of the
Senate did not keep him in Paris,
he would return to his native Lor-
raine and again resume life as a
dirt farmer.

PUGH IS KNOWN
FOR POULTRY

business, and for over a decade
of that time he has had his own
firm, Gale E. Pugh & Co., To-
Gated for the past three years at

This plant is believed by Mr..
Pugh to be the only one of its
kind in this section of the coun-
try. Equipped to handle 10000
head of poultry day, it employs
the services of 80 men, including
IA dressers, and five delivery
trucks, and averages about 10000
units a week.
Mr.. Pugh observes:
1--WE know our poultry is
handled under the most sani-
tary conditions in Washington.
1t is for this reason, which is
public knowledge, that our
business is just as good as it
has ever been."
The Pugh firm also handles all
sorts of dairy products, disposing
of approximately 800 cases Of

the Heffron Company, Inc, 220
L st. N. E. These quarters have
been recently completed for the
Heffron Company, members of the
Heating and Plumbing Contrac-

Proof of their workmanship is
evidenced in a new dormitory at
Georgetown University. Copely
Hall is one of the most imposing
buildings on the campus, and the
plumbing and heating systems
were installed by Heffron.
With the influx of tourists dur
ing the bicentennial year, hotels,
inns, and boarding houses are ex-
pected to have an unusual num-
Der of guests. According to Wal
ter Petit, manager of the Heffron
Company, whether these hotels
and houses will be able to meet
competition depends on the state
Of their plumbing. He added:
Everybody loves a modern
and attractive bathroom. In
many houses there is a space
large enOugh-a closet or a
storage rOOm-that can easily
be converted into a lavatOry,
shower, or toilet room. Moderni-
zatiOn and installation of plumb
ing is part of our business, and

wishes to attract the tourist
trade during the bicentenniaI
