ARMS SMUGGLER
DRIVE IS MAPPED
Justice Department Agents
to Be Modified for
Cuban Security.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
The Department of Justice, armed
with a presidential proclamation en-
bargoing unlicensed munitions ship
ments to Cuba, began moblllzlng
yesterday against the profitable rum
and gun running traffic in the remote
Florida keys.
In authoritative quarters, it was
learned that scores of Justice in
vestigators probably will be dispatched
Immediately to the southern tip of
Florida to launch a drive against the
extensive smuggling trade that has
grown up there.
Fishing craft and motor boats,
operating steathily from hidden
Floridan coves, have done rushing
business in recent months in bring
ing contraband rum from Cuba and
returning to the troubled island S
shores with dynamite, gun powder
and other bulk explosives used in the
handmade bombs that have rocked
Havana for years
The Department of Justice, because
of insufficient personnel and lack Of
authority to deal with the smuggling
activities, has been greatly handi-
capped in handling the situation.
This was partially corrected Friday,
however, in the presidential proclama-
ton making it illegal to export any
explosive, arms or other munitions
to Cuba except under export licenses
issued by the State Department at
the request of the Cuban government.
Under this arrangement, the Cuban
authorities may purchase munitions
which are denied to laWless or revo-
| lutionary elements.

CARPENTERSSEEK
STRIKE SUPPORT
P. w. A. Strikers Refuse to
Accept Labor Ruling on
Project Pay Scale.

Faced with an adverse decision by
the Public Works Administrations
Board of Labor Review, officials OF
striking union carpenters on P w. A.
Jobs indicated last night they would
appeal to other local building trades
to support them in their demand Tor
higher wages.
The Washington Building Trades
Council will meet Tuesday night and
the question of whether a general
strike will be called in sympathy with
the carpenters is expected to arise at
that time.
Richard Gives Views.
o. C. Rickard, past president of the
carpenters local and a member OF Its
wage committee, said the future atu-
tude of the striking carpenters prob
ably would depend on the action OF
the Building Trades Council. He en-
phaSized, however, he was speaking as
an individual and could not commit
the union.
Whether the council will decide to
support the strikers or say that they
should go back to work at the old
rate seemed a matter of doubt. John
Locher, secretary of the council, said
its members we're pretty much divided
on the matter.
The carpenters are striking because
contractors on P. w. A. jobs refuse to
increase the established P. w. A. zone
rate of S1.l0 an hour to the recently
established rate of SIPS for private
work.
Board Cites Obligation.
The decision of the Board of La
Dor Review, handed down yesterday
held the carpenters were morally
obligated to return to work at the
old rate.
Meanwhile, the situation in the
operative plasterers strike was at a
standstill, although negotiations are
expected to be reopened tomorrow
The plasterers are demanding SITS
an hour and a six-hour day. The
present scale calls for Sl.50 an hour
and an eight-hour day.

Short Life for Skyscrapers
Foreseen in Rapid Progress

The Empire State Building, the
Chrysler Building, the Metropolitan
Tower and the Woolworth Building
are likely to be torn down within so
or rs years because of obsolescence,
according to William Orr Ludlow of
the New York Chapter of the Ameri-
can Institute of Architects.
"Structurally they would probably
last 1000 years, but actually their end
will come perhaps sooner than we
think" says Mr.. Ludlow, architect of
the Arnold Constable Tower, Johns
Manville Building, the New York
Times Annex and other New York
structures. These magnificent build
ings, with all their appeal of pride
and glamour, will disappear just as
soon as they become commercially un-
profitable"
New inventions for convenience and
comfort are among the factors which
will make skyscrapers improbable
within so or rs years, Mr.. Ludlow de-
clares. Other forces, he explains, will
be decentralization, or the spreading
out Of the population horizontally;
the airplane; new business methods,
making quick personal contacts less
necessary; new ideas regarding sun
light and air conditioning: new styles
of architecture; new and cheaper
methods and materials of construction,
and constant and rapid change of the
character of occupancy of neighbor-
hoods
Evening star., 1934-12-15

almost any one of these causes may
destroy the usefulness of our present
skyscrapers," Mr.. Ludlow continued.
Commercial buildings erected so
years ago not only look antiquated,
but, because they lack the convent
ences of newer buildings and are in
outmoded neighborhoods, are anti
quated.
THE commercial buildings of rs
years ago have almost disappeared
and the few that remain are liabili-
ties. Today new gadgets, new styles,
new methods, new things for con-
venience and comfort are coming
much faster than they did so or IS
years ago. Obsolescence will come
even quicker than formerly.
"The airplane alone may make the
present skyscraper out of date. Ver-
tical landing may require flat-top
buildings with top entrances, landing
platforms for each building, or great
isolated tower terminals making new
