WICKEDNESS OF THE
PEOPLE

Degeneracy is linked with lux
ury. Amos enumerates ten of
Israel's vices. He charges them
with incredulity, for they cyni-
cally put far away the evil day;
with Injustice, for with violence
they enforce their fraud; with in
dolence. for they loll effeminate'
" upon their beds inlaid with
ivory; with immortality, for they
were infected with wantonness
with insatiableness, for they lived
continually on the fat of flock
and stall: with indecency, for
they sang and played their volup-
tuous songs; with irreverence. for
they mimicked the Davidic in in
struments for jewellers; with in
temperance, for they gulped their
wine out of the sacrificial bowls
with impiety, for they anOinted
themselves with ointments used
only for holy purposes; and with
indifference, for they were I'M
moved by the Affections of their
people. No severer indictments
can be drawn than the naming of

Without preamble, he said:

When I led the stunned beauty
away I returned to see Piazza.
"Is the girl really as bad as
all that?" I asked.
Bad" retorted Piazza, "she

what is said to some of the
other new players.
"ThiS girl is a beauty. But
there is no such a thing as ab-

call attention to perfection not

to do his job adequately. You try

Stun CLEARING
To BE SPEEDED

Work Of clearing Washington's
400 slums should begin shortly
after President Roosevelt returns
next month. it was said today by
Thomas s. Settle. secretary of the
Presidents committee on alley
elimination in the District.
Mr.. Settle, who represents the
National Capital Park and Plan

have q plan on Slum clearance
ready for the Presidents approval
on his return and that it is hoped
elimination Of alley dwellings will
begin shortly thereafter.
What these plans are Is being

Having gained all the pay re-
storation granted them by Con-
greSs in overriding the Presidents
veto of the independent offices
appropriations bill, Government
employees today turned hopeful
eyes toward the beginning of
1885 as the earliest possible date
when their salaries can be re-
stored in full.
AS the clerks on yesterday re-
ceived their first checks contain
ing restoration of the second one
third of their Is per cent pay
cut, the Bureau Of Labor Stats
tics issued a statement showing
that. while the cost of living in
washington during the past Is
months has risen 4.6 per cent,
living costs are still 1875 per cent
less than in 1928.
President May Act
Under the authority given in
the independent offices supply
bill, the President can, on January
l, 1885, issue an executive order
restoring pay in full. However, it
is prescribed that in order for him
to take such action he must de-
termine that living costs have
reached the 1928 level.
While little hope is held that
the President will be able to make
such a determination, and there
fore will not be able to order full
pay, there are other bright spots
on the 1885 horizon in this con-
nection.
Direct Action Seen
One is that congressional pro-
ponents Of full pay restoration for
the Government workers have in
dicated that they may seek to
amend the independent offices leg
iSlation so as to make full pay
restoration action dependent on
another basis which would allow
more freedom, although just what

Drys Want Hazen to Bar
Takoma Park Licenses

Hthere is no more reason why the
Commissioners should make Ia
kcma Park dry than they should
make Chevy Chase or George
town dry.
More than a hundred inter-
ested spectators crowded into the
Commissioners office, among
them local dry leaders, George E.
Sullivan, appearing as attorney
for the Citizens Association Of
Takoma Park, summarized the
dry plea. He said:
"This section always has been
dry. 1t is a part Of unit that
always has been dry. A recent
survey of 1000 out of 5000 citi.
zens showed 1892 want to keep
TakOma dry and $40 want H.
censes of some character, but
this minority is further divided
as to those who are opposed to
hard liquor and those who are
not"
Mr.. Sullivan pointed out that
the present law gives the Commits
sioners the right to designate dry
areas.
In OratOrical Attack
Francis D. Nichol, representing
the publishing interests of the
Seventh Day Adventists, made an
oratorical attack on liquor and the
liquor interests, and then ad-
dressed himself to the right of the
District Commissioners to prohibit
the sale Of liquor in Takoma Park.
He said:
"In your hands has been
placed the authority by an act
of Congress to declare certain
areas dry. :. We do not be.
lieve you will wish to have re-
corded that in the first test on
the liquor question in the Dis
trict in pOst-prOhibitiOn days,
and one of the first tests in the
country, that you declined to
give ratification to the desire Of

For two hours this morning an
old-time pre-prohibition dry cru
SADIE was carried on in the office
of Commissioner Hazen by the
spokesman for the Citizens Asso-
citation of Takoma Park, D. c.,
who for the second time asked
the Commissioners to make that
neighborhood a local Sahara.
Specifically, the proposed dry
boundaries would be the section
bounded on the North and East
by the District line, on the South
by Underwood Street. and on the
west by Georgia Avenue.
Lawyers Make Reply

pleas of dry orators, two lawyers
Ringgold Hart and D. D. Lamond
representing business interests

NEW PAPER AIDS
BLIND READERS

Scientists of the Bureau of
Standards have perfected a type
of paper upon which Braille
characters, used in preparing
books for the blind, can best be
printed, according to an an
nouncement from the Depart
ment of Commerce.
Research on the subject was
undertaken at the request of the
Library of Congress. It was
found some papers upon which
the raised Braille letters are en-
bossed are too hard, irritating to
the readers fingers. Other pa
pers were too soft, permitting
the characters to become de-
formed.
Hitting a happy medium be
tween the two, technicians found
a paper with the proper rela.
tionship between the tensile prop
critics. The new paper will be
the quality standard of the
Library Of Congress in the fu-
ture,
