According to the rules, each con-

YOUNG GIRL WINS
APJACK CONTEST
Champion Girl Pie Eater to
Be Chosen Tonight at
D. G. S. Show.

The flapjack cooking and eating
contest at the District Grocery Stores
Food Show last night turned out to be
a race to see who could devour hot
dough the fastest.
Steam poured from the mouths of
the contestants as they stuffed half
cooked cakes down their throats.
Grimaces and groans, which would
have done credit to a first-class wrest-
ling act, accompanied the performance,
to the considerable amusement of the
capacity audience which crowded the
Washington Auditorium.
Seventeen-year-o Edith Peabody
of 1876 Uhler avenue, Alexandria, Va,
who said she had been cooking since
she was 10, was declared the winner.
She was the first to gulp down the
flapjacks sufficiently to be able to
whistle as proof she had finished.

LIBBY APPROVES
ESTATE DIVISION
Actress Would Get $3.50, 900
of $15,0OO,O 900 Fortune
Left by Reynolds.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
WINSTON-SA N. c., November
1.-THE proposed division of Smith
Reynolds $25,O00000 share of his
fathers tobacco fortune, giving $l5,-
900 900 to his two children, has the
approval of Libby Holman Reynolds,
the young sportsman'S widow, who
would get $750,000 under the plan.
The plan to settle the contested
estate, was filed in Forsyth Superior
Court yesterday by Reynolds brother
and sisters, r. j. Reynolds, jr., Mrs.
Mary Reynolds Babcock and Mrs.
Nancy Reynolds Bagley, the last two
of New York.
Under the proposal, Sc ,0O0, 900 would
go to Christopher Smith Reynolds,
the young sportsmans posthumous
son by Miss Holman. and $4,000 900
TO Anne Cannon Reynolds. I'd. his
daughter by his first wife, Anne Can
non Reynolds.
Except for the S750,OOO Libby Hol-
man Reynolds would get, the balance
of the estate would be used for be-
nevolent purposes.
No explanation was offered for the
unequal division between the two
children, but Benet Polikoff, counsel
for Miss Holman, said the proposal
was acceptable to her Polikoff said
the actress and former Broadway
blues singer was particularly anxious
to see the establishment of a benevo-
lent fund as memorial to her hus-
band
The proposed settlement carried no
provision for Mrs. Anne Cannon Rey-
noldS-Smith, divorced from Reynolds
in 1881.
In a pre-divorce agreement. Rey-
nolds created a 81 100000 trust fund
for her and their daughter. There
has been no announcement whether
the proposed division is acceptable
to Reynolds first wife.

through private sources.
Up to November the Home own
ers' Loan Corp. had made a total OF
635,3s3 loans amounting to sI,9l1.-
913,276 in all States and Hawaii. No
loans had been made in Alaska or
Puerto Rico. In the District OF Co
lumbia, there were 1.419 loans for
$8,327,270; in Maryland there were
l0.828 loans totaling S3l, ,l8l ,226, and
In Virginia, 1879 loans for $25. .634.947
Believing psivate capital is ready TO
return actively to the home mortgage
field. some officials feel that any ap-
plicants who can arrange private re-
financing should be advised to do so
and seek to have their mortgages in
sured. This would assure them of
an interest rate of not over 5l2 per
cent and 20 years to pay. instead of

COMPROMISE SEEN
NEEDED ON BONUS
Leaders Concentrate With
Congress Poll Swinging
Over for Payment.

Copyright, 1894, by the Associated PressD
Congressional leaders set their
minds today toward possible compro-
misses on the bonus issue in the face
of a survey showing the House to be
Overwhelmingly for cash payment
and Senate sentiment much more
favorable than last session.
Results of survey conducted by
the Associated Press indicated Presi-
dent Roosevelt might be forced to
accept a compromise in order to stop
the growing move toward cashing the
estimated $2O0O,00OO0O of veterans
certificates.
Although the outcome of the sur
vey aroused opponents of the bonus,
it showed a possibility that the move
to cash the certificates might be
stopped in the Senate. where a large
group of uncommitted Senators holds
the balance of power.
Majority Nom -CommittaI
While the House was disclosed to be
again overwhelmingly for the bonus
payments, the Senate lined up evenly
with "a willing to commit themselves
for the bonus and an equal number
against.
The rest, comprising half the SEN
ate, were either -committal or I'M
available. Many of these are pledged
to support President Roosevelts pro-
gram, but a large number of them
have voted in the past for cash pay
ment
Several of those who voted against
the bonus last session when the Senate
turned it down as a rider to another
bill, 64 to "a. said they would not
vote for it. None changed the other
way
The House check showed l62 Repre-
Sentatives speaking out definitely for
cash payment and only At against. OF
the remainder, 96 voted for the bonus
last session and ST opposed it. The
remainder were unrecorded.
Few Changes in House.
There were few changes from tie
voting of last session, when the House
favored cash payment by 295 to .25,
or far more than the two-thirds nee
essary to override veto
Worried leaders, looking for a COM
promise, could find several suggestions
in the replies to the Associated Press.
More than dozen Of those unwilling
to pledge their votes for caShing the
bonus proposed cancellation of inter-
est on loans as a compromise
Many others suggested a solution
might be reached py caShing the GER
tifcates for those veterans who could
prove their need. or who were ON RELIEF
rolls. This proposal, frequently sug-
gested in the past, found strong op-
position from some opponents OF cash
ing the bonus, however.
Few Escape Income Taxes.
A similar plan. which has been
offered in the past, for caShing the
bonus of all veterans who did not pay
income taxes was expected to receive
some consideration. Opponents.
though, contend this would result in
paying nearly all the certificates.
Before determining how serious the
bonus threat might be, congressional
opponents were awaiting the outcome
OF meeting of the American Legion's
National Executive Committee next
week at indianapolis.
While the Legion'S convention rec
commended caShing the bonus. it also
proposed IS other legislative prof.
ects. The Executive Committee must
go over the list and decide which TO
concentrate upon at this session.
