the adoption of sons" (Gal.

Carges' Titles

Though momentary, the ap-
pellations of dignity conferred
on Dan GargeS, secretary to the
Board of Commissioners, exceed
the titles of European monarchs
of old.
A recent letter he received

of Wa --!aington." A woman
wanted a husband whom she
described in detail.
A second, addressed to the
Governor Of the District" was

P. D. WORKERS
SEEK RAISE

Postal employees are planning a
vigorous protest in behalf Of bet
ter wages and working conditions,
it became known today. They
plan to seek advantages for Fed
eral workers comparable to those
gained in industry through the
NRA program.
The National Federation Of
PoStoffice Clerks will meet in an
nual convention Labor Day in
Chicago, and restoration of the
wage cut or five-day week will
be demanded. Some locals insist
on both.
Substitute clerks and carriers
are said to be existing under
starvation conditions, their pay
averaging barely Sc a week dur
ing the past year. Many appeals
have been made in their behalf
by other Federal workers of late,
both to the PoStoffice Depart
ment and to other Federal
agencies.

SHOALS POWER
. RATE To MEET
ALL COSTS
BY International News Service

BY International News Service
Generating and distributing
electric power "is a public busi-
ness" it was declared yesterday in
a statement of power policy un.
der the Tennessee Valley Author
ity.
Under this policy the Govern
ment is preparing to generate
electric power for wholesale re-
lease to private distributors, at
a price scale which has been de-
termined but not made public.
Plant to Be Self-Supporting
This rate will discount the
extraordinary original cost of the
wartime development in the val
ley, but David E. Lillienthal, coun-
sci of the Tennessee Valley Or
ganiZation, declared the Govern
ment was not extending a Sub.
sidy" to the utility business. He
said:
"The rates will have to be
based on the requirement that
the venture is self-supporting."
The Government, except in iso-
lated instances provided under
the law, will not itself enter re-
tail power distribution.
Already the T. V. A. has re-
ceived applications for power
which will cover more than so
localities, in Alabama, Georgia,
Kentucky, Mississippi, Tennessee,
and Missouri.
Power Line Started
simultaneously with driving the
first stake for the proposed power
line in the valley reported yester-
day, the Government announced
a policy of permanent opposition
to any private construction at the
site of the Aurora dam on the
lower Tennessee.
The T. V. A. has decided to eX-
tend initial service to:
The area along the route of
the power line between Muscle
Shoals and the Norris Dam site;
vicinity of Muscle Shoals; prox-
unity of Norris Dam.
Later it is planned to include
the Tennessee River Valley areas
of Kentucky, Alabama, Georgia,
North Carolina, and part of
Tennessee.

Loves to Clown

When a lad, Frank Portillo
Of the Government Printing
Office dreamed that some day
he would join the circus and
be a clown.
His dreams, however, failed
to come true and he became a
printer. But he never forgot his
former aspirations.
In all the years he practiced
clowning and today is known as
one of the best amateurs.
When the big top hits the
town he heads for the ring and
joins the professionals in their
antics before the crowd.
All the old timers know him
when, in grease paint and taw-
dry attire, he joins them in their
cavortings.

All of hich is undoubtedly
true, but as a chap who was
once newspaper man myself
in a small town. used to
take my Broadway by proxy,
too-and starved.
London night life, according
to returning travellers. has
never been gayer. To get de-
cent tables at Ciro'S, the
Florida Club or the Savoy,
reservations must be made U.s.
ually a day in advance, and in
what is now one of the most
popular spots, Nash's Club,
heavy bribery of the head wait
er for choice table positions is
necessary as a rule. Nash's
happens to be one of London'S
few speakeasies-that is to say,
admission Is by membership
only. According to these same
travellers, the group Of local
beauties who formed the COM
pany that went to Monte Carlo
are the sensation of the famous
reSort-not so much because
of their entertainment value as
for their social value.
The counts and the princes
and the barons vie with each
other for the company of the
gals who back here were quite
satisfied if boys took them to
Reuben'S or Dawes or Lindy's
and extremely grateful if they
loosened up to the extent Of es-
corting them to one or other Of
the smoother speaks. For a lark,
I am told, two of the girls,
Sandra Rambeau and Evelyn
CroWell, on first arriving in
Monte Carlo. decided to hire a
couple of gigolos to escort them
around.
The girls, of course, paid for
the food and the drinks in ad-
dition to the fee for the mems
time. But the following morn
ing, each Of them received from
her gig companion Of the
night, flowers and gifts. which
they figured out had cost the
fellows almost twice as much
as the girls had spent on the
previous evening.

the news sections and I learn
things. For instance, I give
you my word, I had no idea
Janet Snowden and her prince,
whatever his name is, were
calling it a wet day after less
than a weeks marriage. II l
had known it, I'd have written
a paragraph about it and when
the papers followed it UP with
a story, I'd have boaSted along
the lines of being first in news,
first in gags, first in the hearts
of the newspaper men-folloW-
ing the true code of the true
Broadway columniSt. I learned
also that Eleanor Holm has an
nounced her intentions OF
wedding Art Jarrett. This some
what annoys me, or to be pre-
else, annoys me somewhat. The
last time I was with Eleanor
she insisted that her romance
with Jarrett started as gag
to give a columnist in Holly
wood a much needed line.
was very much impressed with
Eleanor's statement and per-
haps she meant it at the time
and perhaps this time she's
renewing her romance with
Jarrett to help some other
columnist to a line. Or per-
hapS she's really going to marry
Jarrett. I've learned not to
scott at anything-too much.

ais for "MOOnlight and PretzelS"
and wasn't very much inn
pressed. I watched Bobby Con-
molly directing some of the
dances and wasn't too much
impressed with his work either,
at the time.
So I tried to beg off seeing
the preview of the picture be-
cause I pride myself on being
an honest newspaper man and I
knew that whether I liked it or
not it would wound the Messrs.
Rowland, Brice and Connolly in
their most woundable points if
I didn't say something nice
about the picture-and the
wound would be just as painful
if I ignored it entirely. The
situation was saved for me.
Moonlight and Pretzels" re-
vealed itself as poppy, tuneful

Tho payments arc begin ming to come Into the office in q more concerted manner now, Mir Stokes said. pointing out that over $500 had been received at noon and that before the day is over about $1,000 in receipts would be netted.

The fnct that person between the age Of 21 and GO failed to get q personal tax bill does not excuse him or her from paying the assess ment. MT Stokes said. There are many bills that go astray because
