PORK QUOTA HERE
2,21O,0|)0 POUNDS
Federal Distribution to Needy
Expected to Begin Next
Week.

The District Of Columbia has been
allotted 2,2loooo pounds Of pork as its
share Of the meat being slaughtered as
farm relief plan, 1t was announced
today.
Distribution of this pork to Washing
toms needy Is expected to be started by
next week and to continue throughout
the Winter as a complementary relief
function.
This allotment, it was explained by
Harry l.. Hopkins, Federal Emergency
Relief Administrator. is on the basis Of
100, 100000 pounds, that the relief ad-
ministration believes 1t will get from
the wholesale Government slaughtering
of hogs. Hopkins said the Relief Ad-
ministration will pay all Of the costs of
Distribution and the meat will be pro-
portioned to the needy from the local
relief organization.
He pointed out that the figures for
the District and for the country as a
whole are only approximate, since the
Relief Administration does not have
definite figures on the amount OF pork
that will be available
This pork is being processed at pack
ing plants throughout the country,
WaSh1ngtOn'S supply TO come from
Baltimore packing plants. It is treated
with salt and can be kept fresh for
from six to eight months. The meat
will be practically the same as fresh
pork, and will not even require soaking
before 1t Is cooked
Hopkins explained that additional al
lotments of the meat will be made II
the supply warranted or special condi-
tions arise here or elsewhere which
would call for further allotments.

CLAYTON HITS PLAN
FOR MERGER STOCK
Citizens Representative OPP.
poses Issuance of More
Shares Than Now Exist.

On the eve of expected approval by
the Public Utilities Commission OF the
street car merger agreement, William
NICK. Clayton, representing the Fedora
ton of Citizens Associations. today
filed an emphatic protest against the
stock distribution scheme contained IN
the plan.
MI. Clayton objected to the fact that
there will be $10,3O5, 800 more in stock
outstanding after the merger than there
is now.
Mr.. Clayton saw Peoples Counsel
Richmond B. Keech this morning and
then took his protest to Maj. Gen.
Mason M. Patrick. chat. man OF the
commission.
Demands Reduction.
Clayton also demanded that if his
protest is over-ruled and the merger
approved, the commission Immediately
order a reduction in electric power
rates to the public.
Under the merger agreement. the
Potomac Electric Power Co., which
now sells power to the Washington
Railway g. Electric Co., at loss, will
be selling to the new company at q
profit estim2 ted at 1893 per cent on
its investment. In addition, the
Washington Railway & Electric Co.
will assign to the power company con-
tracts for the resale Of power which
yield a profit estimated at $3.50, 900 q
year. Mr.. Clayton said there could be
no reason for these enormous increases
to the power company unless they are
to be passed on to the general public
in the way Of reduced rates.
Excess Stock.
On the stock proposition, Mr.. Clayton

1888 for Senior High
Institutions.

A gain Of 1913 pupils over last years
second-day enrolment was noted In
Washington's public schools yesterday,

year.
OF this total 1888 were senior high

gain, however, was recorded in the
junior high schools, where an enroll
ment Of 5000 was listed, as compared
with 1853 Of a year ago.
This increase Of 1861 explains the

Congress would never have voted for
the merger bill II they had understood
it would result In the issuance Of 50
much additional stock.
The merger resolution provided that
the stock and bonded indebtedness Of
the new company should not exceed
that Of the two merging companies.
This provision has been obeyed, but the
excess stock results principally from the
fact that Washington Railway & Elec-
trio Co. stock is not to be Cancelled
when the merger is formed. The WASH
ington Railway & Electric Co. will re-
main In existence and transfer its street
railway properties to the new company
in exchange for 10000 shares Of stock.
The commission will meet tomorrow
to consider the merger plan, which
has the approval of Peoples Counsel

Miss A. Gabriel Heard In
Address At Harris School

was Ill
topic of an address Monday aft
ernoon in Harris school audito
rum by Miss Anne Gabriel, of thu
State Board of Health, and wa
the second of a series which Mis-
Gabriel viii give during this weel
at this school each afternoon from
$3.50 to 4:30 o'clock.
"We must realize the home as
family institution" the lectur
er stated. Material things are
assuredIy a part of the home, but
the home must be a great deaI
more than means of eating and
sleeping.
Material things do make a
home, but home must have the
members of the family coopera-
tive, sympathetic and understand
ing"
According to this representative
of the State Health Department,
Miss Gabriel touched on teaching
the child in the home as follows
Teaching the child in the home
should begin as early as the age
of two years. Little children
learn cooperation by giving them
chores to do around the home.
They may put their toys away,
even when very young. Even
where there are servants in the
home every child should have some
definite duty to perform in the
home. These services will give
the child responsibility and a place
in the home.
Pertaining To Love
''The successful family is one
where the children love each 9TH
err, and where there is harmony
and contentment within, no mat
ter how meagre and crude the
home may be.
"All members of the family
should believe in each other, and
love each other. The home should
be a place of love and understand
ing"
Miss Gabriel stated that it had
been said, and is quite true, that
the mother is the greatest train
or child will ever have.
''The highest aim of the home
should be to rear our children SO
that their lives will be one OF
harmony, and that they will make
good citizens. Parents of this
time should not shirk the re-
sponsibility Of parenthood.
eff the parents were really in,
tcrested we would be a better
community from all standpoints
Our aim should be not to make
life easier, but better. We should
learn to enjoy doing things in oul
community. The responsibility
not only rests with good health,
but emotional training as well,''
In her talk Miss Gabriel point
ed out that the child should learn
to love and be loved. The force
Of win power to be exerted in the
art of loving, should be taught,
rather than surrender to domin-
ance.
Self Reliance
children must learn to realize
the community responsibility and
to be self reliant, and indepen-
dent.
Our home schedules without
which there can be no successful
home life, must on the other hand
have flexibility and tolerance. Es-
pecially is a certain amount of
flexibility to be granted with the
older child. However, with the
little ones, definite rules are most
essential to their welfare.
life is an adventure, an adj
venture for both the parents and
the child. and should 90 up the
hill together. The child must have
security in the family love and in
the community. Insecurity brings
an inferiority complex. Irregular
ity and inadequacy does affect the
child mara Than wa nau a,y.t.
