FEW FACTS ABOUT
THE HOLY NATIVITY
Birthplace of Jesus Rests on
Legend.

Commentators point out that there
is nothing in the Bible to justify the
popular belief that Jesus was actual
ly born in a manger. illusions in the
Scriptures to the place of Christ's
nativity are few and obscure. Mat
thew 2:11 says that when the Wise
Men were come into the house, they
saw the young child with Mary his
mother, and fell down, and wor-
SHIPPED him."
Luke mentions the manger three
times. In chapter 2. verse Z we read /:
"And she brought forth her first born
son, and wrapped him in swaddling
clothes. and laid him in a manger
because there was no room for them
in the inn" According to Luke 2:12
the angel said to the shepherds: aye
shall find the babe wrapped in swad-
ding clothes. lying in a manger.'
Luke 2:16 says. "And they came
with haste, and found Mary, and
Joseph, and the babe lying in a
manger"
These passages are often construed
as signifying that the birth of Jesus
actually took place in a manger. A
manger. properly speaking, is a
trough or box from which animals
eat. Some authorities suppose that
the manger in question was in the
courtyard of an inn or caravansary.
The typical oriental inn of that day
consisted of a rude, unfinished
shelter surrounding a court in which
the camels, horses and other beasts
of burden were picketed. Travellers
frequently slept outside in the court
when the inn was crowded or when
they could not afford to pay for
shelter.
1t should be noted that the Bible

Perhaps the best way to get an adequate idea
Of Washington, the man, the human being, and
10 dispeI some of the awe which surrounds an
immortal is to pay visit to his beautiful estate,
Mount Vernon the Potomac river, Virginia.
The history of Mount Vernon goes back to the
middle of the Seventeenth century. In 1857 or
1858 a certain John Washington, who had been
a Cavalier in England during the Cromwellian
period with his brother Lawrence crossed the
Atlantic to Virginia, the refuge of so many Roy
alists during the Puritan regime in England.
John Washington made his home at Popes
Creek in Westmoreland county and there mar
ried Ann Pope. In 1874 Lord Culpeper sold
grant of 5000 acres on the west bank of the
Potomac river, about Is miles below what is
now the District of Columbia, to Nicholas Spen-
and John Washington and that tract
John Washington built his home (now known
as Wakefeld) at Bridges Creek, about a mile
from the Pope home. He saw some military
service against the Indians and held the rank
of colonel He lived the life of a gentleman
planter for twenty years, death coming In 1877.
His son Lawrence was the grandfather of the
ulustrious George.
Augustine son of Lawrence married twice
and at his DEATH in 1743 left widow and
seven children There had been three other chill
dren. four by the first marriage and six by the
second. Lawrence, first born of Augustine by his
first wife, Jane Butler, inherited the estate soon

BOND ISSUE

The Federal Government plans
to consolidate a considerable por.
ton of its Short-term debts of ap-
proximately $4,000, 100000 into
longterm bonds, it was learned
today.
The Treasury is expected to sell
bonds Of varying denominations
of about $50 upward to the masses,
rather than to banks and big in
vestors. Individuals may be per
mitted to subscribe for bonds and
pay for them through the banks
over a period of time.
TIE Government securities mar
ket has improved since the bank
holiday. whereas 10 days ago 90
day paper was selling for the
equivalent of 4.26 per cent. The
last issues of five and nine months
certificates carried rates of AZ
per cent, but future quotations will
be much lower Aunless conditions
change.
It is believed that in a few
months the general situation will
show a sufficient improvement to
permit a substantial bond issue
or a series Of long-term flotationS
at reasonable rates.

FARM AID BILL
IS REPORTED
To HOUSE
Passage Predicted by Tonight
Or Tomorrow; Bitter Fight
In Senate Is Certain

Declaring that the farmers

gency, the House Agriculture
Committee in a formal report on
the Administrations $500 900 900
farm bill appealed to Congress
for immediate passage.
Responding to the Presidents
special message and this appeal
the House planned to begin de
bate today with passage declared
certain either tonight or to-
morrow.
Faces Delay In Senate
Delay was indicated in the
Senate as agricultural leaders
there said hearings would be held.
The bill may be completely re-
written in the Senate.
Speaker Rainey reiterated the
promise he made at White House
conference last night to put the
bill through the House promptly.
Representative Smell of New York,
Republican House Leader, said:
"They will pass it here but
the bill will not be passed by
the Senate in less than four
weeks. They will hold hear
ings and rewrite the bill"
The measure was to be pre-
sented to the House under an
ironclad rule preventing amend
ments.
In it's report the Agriculture
Committee declared that the lift
ing of the purchasing power OF
the farmer will benefit the whole
nation. The Secretary Of Agr1'
culture may lease land to cut
production and thus raise prices
Or he can pay benefits directly
to the farmer to compensate him
for cutting his acreage. Said
the report:
"The consumer as well as
the farmer and the business
man has everything to gain
from a fair and balanced rela-
tiOnship between production
and consumption that will
restore agricultural commodities
to their pre-war purchasing
power.
"The present economic emer-
gency is in large part the re-
suit Of the impoverished con-
ditiOn of agriculture and lack
of ability of farmers to purchase
industrial commodities"
Cost Put at $8OO,OOO.OOO
Secretary of Agriculture Wal
lace has estimated that $500, ,000,-
900 would be collected annually
in taxes on foodstuffs to pay for
the leasing of land by which it
is hoped to cut production and
raise prices.
While representatives of the
major farm organizations were
backing the bill, John A. Simp-
son, of Oklahoma, president of
the National Farmers Union,
branded it as a chamber of COM
merce bill" He said:
"ThiS scheme was Matched
by President Harrison, of the
Chamber of Commerce; PreSi-
dent Woods, of earS-ROebuck;
and Professor Wilson, Of Mon
tana, a year ago."

ASKS NO NEW FUNDS
The President did not ask for
any new funds at this time be.
cause unexpended balances now
will be sufficient for
several months. He declared
however, that a further appropria,
ton must be made before the
end of the special session to con.
tinue Federal aid to States, mas.

she intended to make her perman'
ent home in Miami Beach. and
that she had rented residence
through his agency.
Trembling visibly, Mrs. Walker
entered the courtroom a few min
utes before 10 o'clock and posed
for photographers while seated in
the witness chair. She asked for
a bromide when the cameras had
ceased clicking.
Four witnesses were sworn in
addition to Mrs. Walker.
Katzentine told the court he
was convinced the grounds of de-
sertion for divorce were ample
and that legality of Mrs. Walkers
residence in Florida could be
easily established. He said:
Furthermore, there is moth
ing cOlIuSive about this case"
The first witness he called was
Mrs. Walker.
Seeking to establish residence,
he drew from Mrs. Walker that
she has maintained a home at
Miami Beach for the past four
years, first bringing her house

1928.

eled a great deal each year, but
she considers Miami Beach her
home. She said:

By GEORGE II. HOLMES
Congress is going to stay on the
Job until the major part of Presi-
dent Roosevelt's recovery program
is enacted into law.
This much was determined TO-
day as result Of last nights
round-table discussion between
the President and Congressional
leaders at the White House.
Some thought it would take
two months, some three, but in
any event the special session
will run well into the summer.
4-Point Program
AS outlined, the Roosevelt pro-
gram falls under four principal
headings:
/. Unemployment relief: A
special message is expected to
60 to Congress today provid-
ing for the Federal enlistment
of thousands of men in reforeS-
tation work, this to be followed
subsequently by a measure Civ.
ing direct aid to States, and q
long-range public works pro
gram.
2. Farm Relief: A broad farm
relief plan is now before Con- ,
gress, and will be followed later
by legislation designed to re-
lieve the farm mortgage situa.
ton.
8. Railroads: Legislation is
to be framed to speed consoli-
dation and reorganization where
needed, and to deal with other
general problems Of the car
riers' plight.
4. Banking: Leg iSaltion de-
sign to correct the abuses
which led to the failures and
paralysis through which the
country has just passed. This
probably will follow the general
outline of the Glass bill.
It is a far-reaching program,
and one containing the ingre-
dients of much controversy. But
once accomplished, the President
and his advisers believe that,
coupled with balancing Of the
Federal budget, it will enable the
country to move steadily ahead
to better times.
