George Washington

In month replete with notable birthdays and
anniversaries February p stands out III the minds of
Americans as the date of greatest significance, the
birthday Of George Washington
AS a national holiday it is perhaps second only
to the Fourth Of July, while matter of fact it is
probably an anniversary Of even higher Importance,
because without Washington the struggling colonies
might not have made the Declaration Of Independence
effective.
Although much that is legendary has been asso-
ciated with the life Of Washington, due principally
to the zeal Of Parson Weems his early biographer,
the main facts of his inestimable service stand unim
peached and his fame takes added luster with the
years.
Leading poorly trained il-equipped and some
times mutinous army, Washington kept aflame the
fires of patriotism when less determined and less
capable commander might have given up in despair.
While idfrom France finally turned the scale in fav
or of the colonies without Washingtons genius and
heroic persistence the Continental Army would have
been crushed into submission before that aid arrived
It is well that we should honor his memory on
his birthday today and all other days, but nothing
we may say OR do can add to Or subtract from the
priceless heritage eptomzed in the deathess name of
Washington.

IS Years Ago

Thirty-five years ago this month events were
moving rapidly toward that short but spirited strug7
ole known to history as the Spanish-Amer1can War,
which freed Cuba Porto Rico and the Philippines
from Spanish misrule.
American feeling was running high against Span
sh atrocities in Cuba when the battleshlp Maine was
blown up in Havana harbor on February 15 1898,
killing 266 officers and men, On April IL President
Mckinley told Congress that in the name Of human
ity and civilization the being Waged against the
Cubans by the Spanards must stop On April 19 Con
greSs demanded that Spain withdraw from Cuba, and
authorized the Of American land and sea forces to
accomplish this result. War officially began on April
21
Regular Army and National Guard troops were
modified at Tampa, Mobile and other Southern
points; Dewey's fleet was ordered from hong Kong
to destroy the Spanish fleet at Manila; Sampson and
Schey prepared to meet Ceryeras Spanish fleet which
was on its way to West Indian waters from Cape
Verde Islands.
The end of April thus the stage set for ac-
ton On Nav Dewey easily defeated the Spanish
fleet in Manila Bay; on July the main assault on
Santiago by Shafters Army began; on July 3 Ger
veras fleet destroyed while trying to escape from
Santiago harbor and the Spanish land forces at San
tiago surrendered to Shatter on July * ASIDE from
minor engagements in Porto Rico the fall of Santiago
virtually ended Spains resistance hostilities being
formally ened by the protocol of August 13.
Peace was declared through the Treaty OF Paris,
signed December 10, 1898, and later ratlfled Dy
both nations, whereby Spain acknowledged Cuba s
INDEPENDENCE ceded Porto Rico to the United States
and received twenty million dollars for the Phppin-
eS
These are the high spots in a brief but dramatic
war which had farreaching consequences for many
millions Of people and established the United States
as q great world power.
Officials who do too much shaking down some
times experience shake-up.
Forward passes on sharp highway curve are
also frequently incomplete.
It looks as if the Technocrats made the mistake
of putting all their ergs in one basket

Wild Ducks Use Roof For Plunge

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 27-Les. ter Peterson, local insurance op- orator, has decided there is nc need for long tiresome journey as preliminary to duck hunt.
 Adjoining the downtown office structure in which he has space is an eight-story garage with a flat roof and walls arising several feet above the roof.
 Recently Peterson looked out oi the window of his office and saw a flock of ducks swimming in a small lake formed on the roof as the result of a recent rain.
 After enjoying themselves for about twenty minutes the ducks flew off toward the south.
 Peterson, aware that the human tribe is largely skeptic, called to- gether an audience, and had each member make an affidavit stating that he (Peterson) was truthful man.

Forty Million Dollar Estate OfMrs. Mccormick Reported
 D,uindles to Vanishing Point
ACROSS

CHICAGO, Feb. 27.-The estate of the late Mrs. Edith Rockefeller
 Mccormick, once estimated to ex-
 ceed $40,o00,000 is reported by The
 Chicago Tribune to have dwindled to the point where it was deemed
 necessary to cancel the S24,000 life time annuity granted Edwin Krenn, Austrian architect, who was close friend of the worlds richest wom- an.'
 Tn lieu of the annuity, Krenn has been restored to his status as principal heir, the newspaper said. but the estate is in such shape that
 only sudden return of prosperous conditions, with a restoration 3f
 real estate values, will prevent a writing off of all assets as a com
 plete loss
 Following Mrs. McCormick's death
 Krenn agreed to waive his five twelfths share in her estate in re- turn for the annuity, but when the
 executor, the Chicago Title and
 Trust Company, started to examine the tangled conditions of Mrs. Mo-
 Cormick's possessions it was learn ed that there would not be suffi cient income to pay. Krenn his $2,000 month income. He was then informed that the annuity agreement was not practical and that Mrs. McCormick's other heirs were willing for him to reassume his position as heir.
 Heirs Lose Out The other heirs are Mrs Elisha Dyer Hubbard, the former Muriel Mccormick; Mrs. Max Ossr, the former Mathilde Mccormick, who is the wife of the Swiss riding master, and Mrs. McCormick's son, Fowler Mccormick.

 had been advised that they need
 not expect much from the estate, which at it's height was made up
 largely of Standard Oil and other stocks.
 At the time of her death last August, however, all of the stocks
 were gone and most of her funds were tied up in real estate, held by the Edith Rockefeller Trust. Much of the real estate is mortgaged.

The apartments are of various sizes, six with two bedrooms, four teen with one bedroom and twelve two-room apartments with con cealed beds and large dressing rooms.
 Halle and Lcbbies
 The main railways on each floor are widened by a break in the walls to form a small lobby. On each hallway there is room to furnish storage space in addition to the individual lockers in the basement. The railways are sep arated from the main stair well by fire doors which have been ap- proved by the fire underwater; and are placed in metal dooi frames. Ample light is furnished for the large main stairway by 8 skylight in the roof
 A back stairway leads from the top floor to the garage in the base ment, making it possible to go from ones car to the apartment without going outdoors.
 Pawn colored jacquard shades are used on all of the windows in the apartments and railways.
 Nearly Sound proof
 Particular attention was paid by J. B. Warrack, in planning the building, to sound deadening and as a result, both walls and floors are separated from one another with two layers of hair felt pad ding, making the apartments near ly sound-proof.
 There is laundry on the first floor with four tubs and an extra large drying room with a fan ar rangement in back of the radiators to facilitate quick drying of clothes A schedule of hours and days for tenants to utilize the laundry will be made out and posted.

ent patterns and styles to harmon ize with the color schemes sell ected by the first tenants of the apartments. The tubs are built in- to niches set off from the bath rooms by arches. In many of the bathrooms linen cupboards are built into the walls. In nearly every apartment the baths are conveniently placed opposite the dressing rooms. and both bath rooms and dressing rooms have outside ventilation.
 Attractive Features
 A feature often missed in apart ments is the large number oi outlets for lamps and other elec- trical equipment in living rooms dinettes, kitchens and bathrooms In addition, each apartment is wired for radio attachment with shielded wire to prevent loca, noises interfering with radio re- ception.
 Another attractive and practical feature in the planning of the apartments is the number o! large closets and the size of the dressing rooms. A number of the dressing rooms are large enough so that wall bed can be let down inside. making an improyiseo bedroom.
 Individual service cabinets foi garbage and deliveries. such as are used in most of the new apart ments now being built. are both practical and convenient.

 Entrance and Lebby
 Carrying out the idea of making the building attractive in every detail the main lobby and entrance have had special attention given them. Large doors with orna- mental leaded glass open into a vestibule finished with imported rainbow Welch quarries from which double doors lead into the lobby
 Decorated moulding is used in the lobby and the walls are glazed and have a. raised surface with modernistic vertical lines,
 All entrance doors to vestibule and lobby are made e mahogany as are the entrance doors to the apartments.
 Beth stairways are of laminated construction, with fire doors and there is no wood lath anywhere. Mastering is of a gypsum board base throughout the building.
 Floors in lobby, corridors and stairs are covered with high grade carpeting with l1-inch ozite pad ding underneath.
 Electrical Fixtures
 Electrical fixtures in the build ing are of the most modern and attractive. The central fixture in the living rooms is of five shell honey colored glass which casts a diffused glow. In the dinettes and kitchens the lights are black lined opal glass with chromium plated canopy The bath rooms have chromium plated canopy and an opal half shade and the dress ing room lights have the opal half shade with ivory canopy.
 The outside main entrance has an attractive French cast glass fixture. In the main lobby and vestibule the lights have an am Der modernistic bowls and bronze canopies and in the halls the lights are amber glass bowls. !

2 Flee Prison As
Matthews Murder
Protests Increase

NEW YORK.-Two Negro prisoners
risked their lives early yesterday
morning in a sensational escape from
Riker's Island penitentiary. The
men, John Allen, %, and James
Smith, 20, used rowboat to row
through heavy fog to the Bronx or
Long Island shores of the East River,
after they had succeeded in cutting
their way through the bars in the
windows of their cells.
Allen was sentenced to the peni-
Tertiary on May 9 last, on charge
of grand larceny, and Smith. on
December % last, on charge of third
degree burglary. Both were serving
indeterminate sentences.
Their escape makes total of seven
from city penal institutions in the
last ten days, five prisoners having
escaped from. the hell-hole Of We'll
fare Island penitentiary, where James
Matthews, Negro inmate, was brutally
murdered six months ago by a guard,
and the murder hushed up by Wei
fare Island and other Tammany Of
ficials. The murder of Matthews and
the suspicious deaths of other Negro
and white prisoners were exposed by
the Daily Worker. Mayor OBrien
and other Tammany officials are still
blocking an investigation into these
crimes, for fear of embarrassing Tam
many in the elections.
