Little Jim' Farley Bored at P O. Dedication
Boy, 6, Has Best Seat
But Fidgets All
During Speeches

The dedication of the new Post
office Department Building was
Postmaster General James A. Far
ley's own big show, but the star
of the show was Everett Marshall,
famous baritone, and beyond a
doubt the most bored spectator
was Big Jim's" own 6-year-old son.
In the spacious courtyard of the
new building yesterday, where
thousands of persons, including a
considerable number of officials,
witnessed the elaborate dedication,
little James, jr., attracted more at.
tention than anybody else.
Shows His Boredom
He had the best seat on the
speakers platform. But he didn't
care for that very much. He sat
on the railing, stretched his feet
on the red, white and blue bunt-
ing, stood up when he felt tired,
and not infrequently sat on the
lap of Senator Wild Bill" Lyons,
one of his fathers assistants.
He succeeded in getting into sew
eral quarrels with his 8-year-old
sister, Anne, who was doing her
level best to keep him quiet, as was
pretty blonde Mrs. Farley, who
finally gave up that task, remark
ing:
Hes just a william. Better let
him alone than start something
by trying to keep him quiet"
The Farley family attendance
at the dedication was completed
by the presence of 12-year-old
Betty, who sat very quiet through

DEPL0RES REPEAL
Charges "Po|itiCaI Corrup'
ton" Increased Since
End of Prohibition.

BY the Associated Press.
EVANSTON. H., December 5.-Mrs.
IDA B. Wise Smith, national president
of the w. c. T. u, charged today
that repeal of the eighteenth amend
ment has increased political corrup-
ton"
The charge was made in a state
ment issued on the first anniversary of
repeal, in which she asserted the wip-
ing out of the prohibition amendment
had not solved the liquor problem.
Repeal, she asserted, has "bewildered
the average citizen, prompted the ex-
pansion of the relegalized traffic in
beverage alcohol" and lent ''encour-
agement to a hitherto unadvertised
comeback for gambling lotteries and
protected red-Ight districts in our
great cities" She said there had been
an increase in drunkenness, motor ac-
cidents and fatalities, political corrup-
ton and risks in industrial conflicts.
Majority Believed Dry.
"Not forgetting" she said, that the
eighteenth amendment was nullitled
through the tWenty-flrst by wet poll
approximating only 209 per cent Of
the voting strength in the SO States
balloting, the mounting disorder and
complete breakdown of so-called local
and State control legislation has, We
believe, already aroused from their in
difference a large proportion of the
100000 American citizens, more
than 70 per cent of the total, who
refrained from voting on the question
in their respective States in 1888.
The three most serious effects of
relegalized liquor noted during the first
year of repeal are:
u. A planned and partially carried
out sales invasion Of the American
home by the liquor interests in which
they are spending lavish funds in bold
and subtle propaganda aimed at eX
panding their profits at the expense
Of millions of youth, housewives and
young mothers. never before made
the target of their trade appeal.
Says Toll Camoufaged
40 An astonishing attempt to
camouflage and suppress the extent
TO which the mounting toll of acci-
dents and motor casualties and IA
talities are due to the practically un-
restricted legal sale of liquor every
where on our highways.
''3. The sinister growth and expan
sion OF liquors power in politics as
result of which every attempt of even
local or State protection against le-
galized traffic in surrounding territory
is being flouted by Federal internal
revenue tax cOnnivance with illicit
drink distributors IN dry territory and
by the administrations program of
repeal of every United States statute
affording the slightest aid to States
which have themselves outlawed the
trade"

COLONIAL SOCIETY
FAv0RS MUSEUM
1ndorses Building Plan Outlined
at Meeting by James
Waldo Fawcett.

A plan for a great new Museum of
American History, to be built in Wash
ington, owned by the people and ad-
ministered by the Smithsonian Insti-
tuition, was approved last night at the
annual meeting of the Washington
Chapter of the National Society of
Colonial Wars at the Mayflower Hotel
The project was outlined by James
Waldo FaWcett in an address on the
patriotic and civic significance of
American history.
Such a building, the speaker said,
has been needed for many years. 1t
would serve to accommodate artifacts
the Smithsonian already owns and
would provide room for the exhibition
of valuable gifts which. under present
conditions of overcroWding, it has been
unable to accept.
A site on the Mall was specified as
the best location and it was suggested
that the structure should be so ar
ranged as to make feasible the assign
ment of space for souvenirs and relics
of six centurieS-the fourteenth to
twentieth.
NC NV Ol SOll-
gress, Fawcett argued, but an applica-
ton also should be made, he said. to
the Public Works Administration for
a grant.
"A Museum of American History"
the speaker declared, would have a
larger significance than any other
establishment of its kind the Capital
ever has had. 1t would do for America
what the British Museum is doing for
England. 1t would illustrate the story
OF which every living American is part
and it would personalize that story in
pictorial form as nothing else could" +"
Brig. Gen. William E Horton was
elected governor of the chapter, sue
ceeding Ralph Putnam Barnard, re-
tiring after serving two years. Gilbert
L. Hall was reelected secretary and
