M|LKFOR RELIEF
TO COST scents
Walker Reverses II Gents
Quart Ruling Made by
Subordinate.

Reversing a decision made by a
subordinate official, Frank S. Walker,
president of the Maryland Virginia
Milk Producers Association, told Dis
trict officials today all milk purchased
by the city for its relief families could
be bought for cents quart under
arrangements with local dairies.
This apparently brought to con-
clusion a furry caused yesterday when
B. B. Derrick, manager of the Milk
Producers Association. said the Dis
trict would have to pay II cents a
quart for about 500 gallons q milk
for relief families which are subject
to contract between the District and
several dairies. The dairieS them
selves, according to Elwood Seal,
assistant corporation counsel, have
raised no point about the ll-cent con-
tract and are willing to sell that
quantity az cents, in keeping with
the new arrangement made with Com
missioner George E. Allen.
After learning of the position taken
by Derrick, Walker gave assurance the
matter would be Strengthened out, Seal
said The producers association is
involved in the arrangement since 1t
agreed to allow local distributors to
use the so-called surplus" milk for
fluid consumption. in sales made to
the District for relief families at 8
cents a quart. Under the 11-cent
milk contract plan the dairies used
basic" milk bought from the pro-
ducers. The milk is the same in
quality but higher price is paid to
farmers for basic" milk.

TWO HURT AS CAR
DRIVES INTO TREE
Butler Takes Auto Without
.PermiSSion-Taxi and
Bakery Truck Crash.

Two colored men, one Of them a
butler for Maj. Gen. Ewing E. Booth,
were seriously injured early today
when they crashed a heavy sedan be-
longing to Gen. Booth into a shade
tree near the Rumanian Legation,
1900 block of Twenty third street.
The butler. William Edwards, %,
was driving the car without permis-
sion, Gen. Booth said. The car was
going east over the @ Street Bridge
and skidded when Edwards tried to
swing it left into Twenty-third street.
The machine bounced across the
sidewalk, struck the tree squarely
and was virtually demolished.
Possible Skull Fracture.
Edwards was treated at Casualty
Hospital for possible fractures of the
skull and jaw and cuts about the
face. His companion, Kenneth Nor
gan, Is, Of the 1900 block of Four
teenth street was treated for a pos
sible fracture of the hip, cuts and
bruises.
Gen. Booth, who lives at 2819 P
street, said Edwards took the keys
to the car without permission shortly
after midnight and drove away in
the machine.
Two other persons were seriously
injured early today in a collision be-
tween a taxicab and a bakery truck
at New Jersey and New York avenues.
They were Henry E. Clements, %, of
1908 Massachusetts, avenue, the cab
driver, and Matthew Hayden, 80, of
500 Carroll avenue, Takoma Park,
Md.
The cab and delivery truck over
turned and the Fire Rescue SQUAD
was summoned. Hayden was treated
at Emergency Hospital for fractured
ribs and arms and a back injury.
Clements was taken to Freedmen's
Hospital and treated for shock and
severe injuries to his leg. Later he
was transferred to Gallinger Hospital
and booked by the police on a charge
Of reckless driving.

cost Of this plan happens to be less
than that of any of the others, but
primarily because of our belief that
changing conditions will SO alter the
situation as we see it now that 1t
would be manifestly unwise to expend
money now for track changes which
may never be required" -
On the subject of the tunnel under
the Ellipse, so strongly urged by
Peoples Counsel Roberts, the COM
pany said:
After careful study we are Of the
opinion that such a tunnel would
not very greatly improve our opera
ton or benefit street car riders. The
great bulk of traffic handled by street
cars moves north either on Fourteenth
street or Connecticut avenue. The
suggested tunnel would in no way
relieve Fourteenth street and 1t
would relieve Connecticut avenue
traffic only if it removed the neces-
sity for some of the cars now operat-
ing on Connecticut avenue and Sew
enteenth street being operated along
H street or Pennsylvania avenue.
I'm our opinion the great expendi-
ture necessary for construction of
this tunnel Is not warranted at the
present time, even though the cost
be borne by the Government 1t is
entirely possible that within the next
few years conditions will require the
construction Of some underground
passageway for street cars and this
strengthens us in our belief hereto
fore expressed that an intermediate
routing and track changing plan
should be now adopted"

NE0-SCH0LAST|C
PHILOSOPHY URGED
Dr.. Jacques Maritain to Lee
ture at Catholic Uni.
versity Tonight.

Application Of neo-scholastic
philosophy to some of the most press
ing social and philosophical problems
of the day Is advocated by DR.. Jacques
Maritain, one of the foremost living
European philosophers, who will lee
ture at Catholic University tonight.
In principle, DR.. Maritain tndorses
the New Deal philosophy, but scores
the opponents of liberia individualism
on the ground their code overlooks a
law Of nature which provides that
'the use Of a good individually appro-
priated must itself serve the common
good of all"
Property Right Essential.
Continuation Of the fight Of prop
erty is an essential of proper human
relations, he said, but continued:
IN the face Of cooperative or
trades union regime, the task would
be, it seems, to defend the person
against the cooperative COLLECTIVELY,
while assuring the advantages of this
regime to the community. I mean on
the one hand to insure elementary
goods to those who are not incor-
porated or cannot be incorporated in
the trades union or cooperative frame
work; on the other hand to guaran-
tee in the very bosom of these organ
isms the rights and liberty Of the
person"
DR.. Maritian's position has been that
Of accepting the philosophical system
of st. Thomas Aquinas interpreted in
the light of the problems of changed
age. Originally he was a follower Of
Henri Bergson. but broke away from
the great French philosopher on the
basis of the acceptability of intel
lectual knowledge.
Evolution Comparable.
The idea of evolution itself, he said,
Is entirely comparable with an ortho-
dox Thomism, but insists upon a first
cause outside of the process itself
both chronologically and In the sense
Of an intellectual guiding force. The
position Of Bergson was that the fun
damental reality in the universe was
not thing in itself or that which 1t
becomes, but the process of change
itself.

OUTLINE
D. c. RELIEF NEEDS
Municipal Leaders Appear
Before Budget Bureau for
Next Fiscal Year.

The financial needs Of the relief,
welfare and penal institutions Of the
District in the next fiscal year were
being outlined by group of munich
pal officials appearing today before
the Budget Bureau.
The outlay proposed by the Com
missioners m their 1896 budget for
these agencies totals S8,6l2,390. or
nearly 20 per cent Of the total of the
1896 estimates, 44.039 356.
The proposed Welfare Department
budget is almost exactly $l,000,000
greater than the appropriations for
the present year. An item of $3,000,-
900 is contained In the Commission
ers' budget for emergency relief pur-
poses, it is understood. The Relief
Administration sought sum of S.
100000, but this was curtailed. The
appropriation for emergency relief
for the present year is 100000.

Stores Here Plan Busiest
Christmas In -Four Years

Washington's department stores are
making preparations for what they
expect to be the busiest Christmas in
four years.
In the larger downtown stores ap-
proximately 1000 extra employees will
be taken on to handle the anticipated
rush.
Executives Of department stores
predict the public will spend more
freely this year. The Board Of Trade
attributes this to general pickup
in conditions, partial restoration Of
the Government pay !cut and the
fact that more people are employed
In the Capital than q year ago.
Evening star., 1934-11-07

Due to the N. r. A. stores were
obliged to increase their personnel to
q greater extent than usual to ac-
commodate Christmas crowds last
year. but they are planning to hire
even more persons this year.
One Of the larger stores expects to
have 5000 employees at work by the
middle of December. Their peak last
year was about 1880. Another will
have about 1,550 workers, as COM
pared with approximately 1,4oo last
December.
Some of the stores started increas-
ing their personnel in September and
are gradually building up their rolls.
