ROOSEVELT SPENDS
HOUR IN ART GALLERY
President Visits Corcoran Exhibit,
Showing Interest in Mel
chers' Work.

President Roosevelt spent nearly an
hour yesterday at the Corcoran Art
Gallery, viewing the many works OF
art and interest, at time when the
gallery was not open to the public. He
was especially interested In the exhibit
of drawings, etchings and paintings of
the late Carl Melchers, which occupy
several rooms, and the exhibit Of handi-
craft of Southern mountaineers.
Mr.. Roosevelt went to the gallery
alone, except for the customary Secret
Service escort. The officials of the gal
lery had been advised of his visit q
short time In advance and c. Powell
Minnigerode and members of his ex-
ecutiye staff were on hand to receive
Mr.. Roosevelt and to personally conduct
him through the rooms and answer his
questions.
Mr.. Roosevelt, however, did not con-
fine his visit to the rooms containing
the Melchers work and the Southern
handicraft, but he toured the entire
gallery, spending considerable time In
the rooms containing the famous Clark
collection. Although she had been there
recently several times, Mrs. Roosevelt
visited the gallery again q few hours
after the President.

GAS FIRM VALUES
INCREASE @3,936
Experts Change Appraisal on
Company'S Tenth Street
Property.

An increase Of $4s,s3S In the ap.
praisal of the Washington Gas Light
Company's Tenth street Office property
was the result of conferences between
experts for the Public Utilities Com
mission and the company, it developed
at public valuation hearings today.
Harold E. Doyle, land value expert
employed by the company, testified he
had originally placed the value of the
Tenth street land at SIG foot. He
said he then had conference with e.
Catesby Rowzee, the commissions land
expert and, as a result of the confer
ence, increased its appraisal to $40 a
foot. He said Mr. Rowzee's valuation
had been even higher.
The property occupies 1o,984 square
feet, so that the difference between Mr.
Doyle's first and second estimates works
out at $43,936. These facts were devel-
oped IN cross-examtnation of Mr.. Doyle
by William NICK. Clayton, counsel for
the Federation Of Citizens Associations.
Mr.. Rowzee has not yet testified.
Authorized March IL.
The conferences among experts were
authorized by an order Of the commits
S@SA AoSdC0 I0dICil IL ldSL.
After five days of direct testimony
ana cross-examination of Mr.. Doyle as
to land values, William A. Roberts
counsel for the commission, today
moved to strike it all out as the hear
ing entered its second week.
Mr.. Roberts entered one motion to
strike out all Of Mr.. Doyle's testimony
and a second motion directed to specific
portions of it.
His reasons, as stated in the first
motion, we're:
THAT the said values and appraisals
made by Harold E. Doyle were not such
values as may be considered for rate
making purposes, but were in fact the
estimates Of the witness based on the
speculative assumption that the lands
of the gas company, and all of them,
were for sale, and that purchasers
existed ready, willing and able to pur-
chase. F
'' Based on False Premise. -
'The valuation of the witness Is
shown by the testimony to be based
largely on sales Of dissimilar lands used
for highly specified purposes, such as
gasoline stations, small apartment
houses, ETC., under conditions which the
witness was unable to disclose and
which bore no relation to the value Of
the lands OF the said companies based
on the lawful measure of value for
rate-making purposes"
The second motion was directed to
lands lying in H street, the so-called
wharf properties at the West and East
plants and a small triangular tract now
occupied by the gas company at the
West plant. He sought to exclude testi-
mony on these because they "have nc
market value In that their use for any
purpose Is confined to use by the said
gas company or its successors during
the period of the manufacture and dis
tribution Of gas for municipal and gen.
eral consumption"
The commission postponed its de-
cision on the motions until the end OF
the case, when they will be argued with
all other points of law arising.
Peoples Counsel Richmond B. Keech
began his cross-examination of Mr.
Doyle at the morning session after Mr.
Roberts had entered his motions.

BALbO IS REMOVED,
MUSSOL|N| IN POST
Air Minister Becomes Cover.
nor of Libya as Il Duce
Heads Air and Navy.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
ROME, November 6.-King Victor
Emmanuel made Premier Mussolini
minister OF both the navy and air to-
day after accepting the designations of
Air Marshal Italo Balbo and Admiral
Giuseppe Sirianni.
At the same time the King named
Gen. Vale undersecretary of the air
and Admiral Cavagnari undersecretary
of the navy.
Balbo to Head Libya.
Balbo was named governor of Libya,
taking the place of Marshal Badoglio.
Premier Mussolini sent both Balbo
and Admiral Sirianni cordial auto
graphed letter, thanking them for their
long and loyal cooperation.
The Kings decree accepted the resig-
nation of Undersecretary Russo of the
navy and Undersecretary Riccardi of
the air.
The wording of the decree indicated
that military ministers Of the air, navy
and war will not be combined, as at
first believed.
It was thought, however, that this
was probable at some later period when
MussolIni becomes minister of national
defense.
Sirianni In Mine Post.
Admiral Sirianni becomes president
Of the Cogne Co., large iron ore miners
In upper Italy.
Premier Mussolini now holds six
mlnistries-foreign affairs interior, war,
navy, air and corporations.
There are Srvap he dooe not nocr,,xy
namely, colonies, justice, finance, edu-
cation, agriculture, communications and
public works.
Balbo Is Disappointed.
Air officers described Balbo as de-
Jected and said he would take a yaca-
ton OF several months before assuming
his new post as governor of Libya.
Balbo's air connection, these officers
pointed out, would make him valuable
as the governor of a colony where air.
craft plays a large part4in the African
desert interior In keeping the tribesmen
under control.
The assumption of the military min
istries by Mussolini has been rumored
for year and half This Is not the
first time II Duce has held all three
posts. He was minister of war, navy
ana air In 1923, but turned these posts
over to Gen. Pietro Gazzera, Sirianni
and Balbo. (Gazzera resigned as war
minister last July and subsequently was
made Senator.)
It was reported the three ministries
will be kept separate for certain time,
but some technical services, such as the
laboratories and testing grounds, will be
combined Immediately.
Vale Assumes New Post.
Gen. Vallee, who has been chief of
staff of the air ministry, was promoted
Saturday to divisionary general. He
assumed his new post in the air min
istry this morning.
Italo Balbo, displaced as air minister,
was raised to the rank of air marshal
from general upon his return to rome
following the mass transatlantic flight
he led to Chicago and back
He also led mass fight across this
South Atlantic to South America in
1930-31. Prior to his appointment as
air minister he was undersecretary for
aeronautics and served as commander
In chief of the national militia.

TWO MORE STANZAS
OF AAMERICAu FOUND
Samuel Francis Smith Pays Trib'
ute to Education in Verses Not
in Original Anthem.

Two stanzas of America" practically
unknown to Americans who have sung
the song with patriotic fervor almost
since the birth of the Nation, even
though the tune is that Of the British
national anthem, God Save the King,
have been uncovered by the ONCE OF
Education of the Interior Department.
The stanzaS have been published In
the October issue of School Life, the
official monthly journal of the Once of
Education, and they deal with education
almost entirely.
They were written by the author Of
America" Samuel Francis Smith, some
time after the original verses familiar
to every American school boy or girl
were penned. and are published by the
Office Of Education In connection with
the forthcoming observation of Educa-
ton week throughout the country, be-
ginning tomorrow.
They follow:
Our glorious Land today,
Meath Edueation's sway,
Scars upward still
Its halls of learning fair,
Whose Bounties all may share,
Behold them everywhere,
On vale and hill
Thy safeguard, Liberty,
The school shall ever be-
Our Nations pride!
No tyrant hand shall smite,
While with encircling might
All here are taught the Right.
With Truth allied

Treasure Hunters
Fun Limited at
Lincoln Memorial
Guards Not to AILOsC
Hide-and-Seek Within
Shrine.

Abraham Lincoln isn't allowed to play
games, and the guards at the Memo
rial would be much obliged II the
people would take due note of that
fact, and be guided accordingly.
It seems that the younger genera
ton of the Capital has q current
pastime designated as treasure hunt
ing" wherein they follow cryptic clues
from place to place. The dignified
statue Of the Emancipator invariably is
included in these tours, inasmuch as the
massive figure offers place Of con-
cealment for the messages by which
the hunt is carried on.
1t all comes under the general head
ing Of fun, but the Lincoln guardians
must regretfully decline to allow the
inner shrine to be converted to such
usage. it was explained today by John
William Wheeler Of Takoma Park, one
of them.
However, the genial guards are will
ing to go fifty-fifty or thereabouts,
and let the terraces figure IN the
pastime.

DRYS ARE RALLIED
BY MRS. PEABODY
Sees Possible Turn of Tide if
Four States Go Against
Repeal.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
In what she termed her "last stand"
for her cause, Mrs. Henry w. Peabody
yesterday called upon the women of
Ohio, Utah, North Carolina, South
Carolina, Kentucky and Pennsylvania to
save the drys from defeat in tomorrow's
balloting on the eighteenth amendment.
"They could do It'll" said the chair
man Of the Womefl's National Commit
tee for Law Enforcement. as she ar
rived in washington after 10 days Of
campaigning in Ohio.
Il know they can win II they'll 60

And If women should lead such a last
rally wouldn't 1t be something for their
children to remember!
MY friends say to me, What's the
point? It's gomez Well, when my child
was lying at the point Of death, did
stop?"
Pins Hope in Four States.
Mrs. Peabody argued that four States
remaining in the dry column would
defeat immediate repeal of the eight
zenith amendment and give the drys a
chance to rally for further battle.
SO small a proportion of the voters
cast ballots in the repeal election of
80 States, she said, that a real rally
OF voters to the polls, particularly
women voters, might still turn the tide
in the elections Tuesday
Repeal will mean terrible moral
breakdown of this Nation" Mrs. Pea
body asserted. And this Nation won't
come back. It's not the liquor I'm
worrying about, so much as the sort of
Government under which it can be OBJ

from It," Mrs. Peabody appealed on
economic grounds for dry votes.
Points to Supreme Court.
Mothers as well as governments have
to balance their budgets" she said
Beer dollars come out Of milk money.
They should know that repeal gains arc
due to the drive of the liquor traffic
itself; to the politicians, both Repub-
lican and Democrat; to capitalist
greedy for liquor tax which the work
ing man would gladly pay. and to tho
tremendous power of the administration
through patronage threats"
Mrs. Peabody warned the drys to look
for fraud in ballot boxes, and pointed
to the Supreme Court as a possible
further front on which to test the oues-
tion whether conventions on delegate
