A MERICA'S surviving handicraft
n -hand-woven coverlets, patch
II quilts. split-wood baskets. cary
1 \ ed wood utility pieces and a
score of other objects-has been
brought out of Southern mountain
homes to comprise an unique exhibition
that opened yesterday at the Corcoran
Gallery of Art.
Sponsored by Mrs Franklin Delano
Roosevelt, Mrs. Herbert Hoover and
Mrs Calvin Coolidge and circulated by
the American Federation of Arts, this
show represents the most extensive sur
vival of pioneer home handicraft in the
United States. The various objects,
works of art in the full sense of the
word, represent the manufactures OF
the mountain families back through the
generations when mothers and fathers
and children made what they needed
in their homes or went without.
The coverlets, for instance, are hand
woven out of woods sheared carded and
spun by the same hands that wrought
into them designs typical Of the noun
tains The quilts we're sewed in quaint
designs from cottonS grown, ginned,
spun and woven by the mountain wives
who have contributed them for the ex-
hibition. Baskets. brooms and furnl-
ture were fashioned by the men from
wood stock cut in the hills where they
and their fathers. and their fathers
fathers before them, lived and labored.
Two Dulcimers Shown.
Aside from the strictly utilitarian OBJ
jects. there are in the exhibit two ex-
amples Of the dulcimer, a mountain
musical instrument fashioned from ma
tive walnut and fitted with three
strings Then there are dolls made OF
corn husks, toys cut from bits of wood,
and bows and arrows from the Chero-
kee reservation.
Outstanding in interest, perhaps
among the exhibits. is a bed coyerlet
woven by a mountain woman who for
merly supported her children by telling
trees, splitting the trunks into railroad
ties, and dragging them 8 to 10 miles
through the mountains to a rail-
road where she sold them. She was
presented with loom, taught how tc
operate it, and now she maxes better
living in her home weaving coverlets
which are sold to city folk.
which really aren't rugs at all. A
nervous breakdown undertook the
fashioning of these rugs as occupation
al treatment of her ailment, but instead
of producing the ordinary type of rugs
she sought to work in the technique OF
hooked rug making the mountain
scenes in which she dwelt. The re-
suits are uncanny landscapes which
rival paintings in the color and form
with which mountain scenery is de-
picted. This woman. by the way, was
paid 500 for the first of these rug
pictures" she fashioned.
Girl Presents Item.
Another interesting item in the show
is a cotton bed coverlet in rail fence
design" A young mountain girl, worked
it, using as base broad piece Of cot
ton fabric which her mother grew, spun
and hand-wove many years before.
The works are the products of the
Southern Highlands Handicraft Guild

DREAM OF AVIATION
TRADE REALIZED

CHICAGO, April 4.-(UP).-
The $50 miles an hour cruising
speed for multi-motored passeng::
er transports, long the dream of
the industry, becomes a reality
in 1888, as this year marks the
greatest increase in speed in the
history Of air transportation.
From 1920 to 1927 average
cruising speed Of commercial air
planes was less than 100 miles
an hour. From 1923 to 1882 the
cruising speed of transport air
craft in general averaged from
I115 to 100 miles an hour, al
though there were a few faster
planes in service. This spring
sees a notable increase in speed,

the catastrophe battle.
Eleven officers were killed, SIX
were seriously wounded, about 80
non-commisSiorcd officers were
killed. or gravcly injured. and
scores of men were wiped out BY
the native attack.
The engagement occurred IN
the Djcbel Sarro Range.
According to the French plan,
southern natives must be con-
quered before the big push" can
be staged against the main rebel
army in the High Atlas noun
tains. This campaign, which is eX-
pected to last throughout the
summer, will be a miniature Al
pine war in character.
The Djebel Sarro defeat was
the most serious since July ID,
1926. when the rebel counter-of-
fensive in the North cost the
French &c officers in one day.
The battle represents the most
serious loss of man-power since
the wiping out of French native
battalion at Aityakub in 1929.

OPINION VARIES AS
To POSSIBLE INCOME

RALEIGH, April 4.--Kalelgh,
as the political center of the state,
thrives on speculation. but 1t has
at least been stumped over the
question of how much revenue
this proposed 80 per cent beer
will yield. Estimates Of the
amount of income beer will yield
differ so widely here that 1t IS
agreed that one persons guess Is
about as good as anOthcr'S.
Sponsors of the beer bill intro
duced by Senator Francis claim
that it will produce $1.5OO,O0O a
year in revenue to the state alone.
The state tax on beer will be 81
per 31-gallon barrel or ? cents
per Bounce bottle. The counties
will be permitted to levy SO
license tax and the cities SlO
tax. .
There are others here that
claim the figure of $1,50O,OO0 is
very conservative estimate.
Some say il will be $1,OOO,OOO.
Some even say it won't be $780,
600.

1000 MILES OF LEVEES

MEMPHIS, April 4.-(UPl.-
The Mississippi is being chained

Perhaps the first effort to-
ward flood control of the Mis-
sissippi was the construction of
a levee by the French engineer
lie Blond de la Tour near New
Orleans in l717, Major Somer-

Get planned by the government
from 1923 to 1888 was to cost
l35,000,00G, but in the last
four years, approximately $50
100000 has been spent at a
saving of eight per cent under
estimated cost figures.
In the Memphis district, ap-
prOximately 273 miles of the con-
templated $50 miles of levccS
have been constructed as part Of
the 10-year program. In this
district 265,000,00O cubic yards

is more dirt than was required
