this is an important feature,

Boy Foresters' Appetites
Strain 54-Cent Ration

LURAY, Va, April 19.-When
President Roosevelt's forest army
was being organized, 81 cents a
day was set aside to ration each
man. The United States Army
performs the same service for a
fraction over % cents.
Consequently, there was COM
plant by critics who wanted to
know why it should cost the Gov
ernment more to feed the for
eSters than the regular soldiers.
The answer is seen here at
Camp Roosevelt, where 200 Wash
ington boys are setting up a
model camp as an inspiration for
other campers throughout the ma
ton.
After watching these boys eat,
those in charge of the camp are
afraid 81 cents a day per man
will fall short of the mark. r
There is, Of course, a reason
for such appetites.
The boys are working harder
than they ever worked in their
lives, Swingng axes and Juggling
logs around Massennutten Noun

GOTWALS REPLY.
RAPS TOTTEN'S
BRIDGE IDEA
Engineer Says Steel Span Is
Preferred as Less Costly;
Calvert Street Issue

Use of a steel bridge to carry
Calvert Street Northwest over
Rock Greek Valley, instead Of q
masonry structure, was defended
today by Maj. John c. Gotwals,
Engineer Commissioner.
Major .Gotwals made his state
ment in reply to charges py
George Oakley Totten, jr., local
architect, that the Commissioners
had misused public funds in OBJ
tanning two sets of plans for the
bridge. Mr.. Totten designed q
masonry bridge.
Cost Held Too Great
Totten was engaged and paid
$4,000 to prepare a preliminary
drawing for the bridge, Major
Gotwals said, but the plans were
not accepted because of the extra
expense they would entail.
The bridge planned by Totten.
Gotwals said, would require ex-
pensive foundation in the valley
and would involve an outlay OF
some $1,O00,OO0 for land for ap'
proaches.
For Open Valley
In addition, Gotwals said, the
steel bridge was held more de-
sirable because it would leave the
valley open, rather than block
it with the masonry foundations.
The Totten drawing, ordered by
a former Board of Commissioners,
was tentatively approved by the
Fine Arts Commission in 1917,
but the Commissioners merely
paid for the preliminary work
and did not order specifications
nor detailed detailed drawings,
Gotwals said.

SPEAKERS FLAY
y RECOGNITION
CAMPAIGN
Soviet Seeks to Overthrow
American Institutions,
Leaders Assert

Soviet Russia is an enemy coun-
try. Russia is dedicated to the
overthrow of American inStitu-
tions. Russia is sworn to con-
spire against American peace and
security.
These and other charges were
made last night in the mass meet
ing to protest recognition OF
Soviet Cussia in the washington
Auditorium, attended by more
than 5000 representatives Of $50
fraternal, religious, labor and pa
triotic organizations. The meet
ing was held under the auspices
Of the -American Legion.
Enemy, Says Colby
The charge that Russia is an
enemy state was made in a letter
from Bainbridge Colby, wartime
Secretary Of State, read to the
NEE ng by Louis A. johnson, ma
tional commander of the Ameri-
can Legion. The Colby letter
maintained that the original re-
fusal of the United States to
recognize the Soviet was "predi-
Gated Upon the fact that Russia
was an enemy state"
Most of the protests were based
on the fundamental idea that
Russia would impose its form of
government on the entire world
by force.
Welsh Criticizes BOrah
The Rev. Father Edmund A.
Walsh, vice president of George

tor Gorah, a recognitionist, who
