Sea breezes from a modern cool

lounge have contributed to the
great popularity of this dignified
room Of such informal bearing.
There is no place where the
patrons apparently dislike to
leave so much. The Mayflower
lounge after all is a room Of many
moods. At luncheon, the dance
floor is completely hidden by q

furniture. Then at the cocktail
hour, Sidney and his dance ar.

and Sidney's men reappear to
play dance music after 10 p. m.

At The Willard
The white uniforms and gold
braid of the Navy proclaimed a
grand finale of a joyous last
week at the Naval Academy as
the newly commissioned ensigns
and charming ladies made gay
little parties in the Bamboo
Room at the Willard following
graduation exercises.
There was very special lunch

The Bamboo Room will carry

Club Michel
With the "sun back in the
sky" Club Michel once again
moves upon the cool roof garden
atop No. / ThomlS Circle. Be-
cause of the recent bad weather,
it was necessary to use the club
room downstairs.
The gay colored lights and
garden decorations make a most
inviting scene. The little trellis
booths with their gay canvas and
ivy trimmings are always in de-
mand as are the tables with their
bright colored umbrellas.
One of the most popular per
sons at the Michel is Charlie
Carver, the man behind the
scenes, who by local law, must
hide himself, but his reputation
is city-wide for his famous thirst
quenching connections that were
recently made legal.
Appearing in the intimate floor
revue this week are the beautiful
O'Hea Sisters in novel harmonic
ing, and Burns and Swanson

are not new to Michel patrons

SCHOOL URGED
FOR ERR|NC

ablishment of problem
school" for the correction and
prevention of juvenile delinquency
in the District was urged today
by Representativ Mary T. Norton
CD, of New Jersey, chairman of
the House District Committee.
Mrs. Norton, who left Washing
ton today for her home, an
nounced she will confer with
the District Commissioners and
school authorities on the proposal
when she returns later this
month.
Such a school, she pointed out,
has been established in Jersey
City, N. j., and has proved such
a success that the city's reforma-
tory and house of correction have
been practically emptied.
The plan provides for commit
ment of children to the problem
school after they have been
brought into Juvenile Court for
violation of the law. The children's S
home conditions are investigated
and, if they are found to be prob.
lem children, they are sent to the
school for correction.

THOMAS BACKS
PAY-OFF PLAN

Senator Elmer Thomas DO, Of
Oklahoma, today announced his
support of any feasible bank pay
off plan that is placed before Con-
gress during the coming session.
The Oklahoma Senator made it
plain that he would not give his
blanket Endorsement to 100 per
cent pay off legislation, but de-
clared that as long as the pro-
poSal followed along the lines of
the original Mcleod measure of
last session he would give it his
strong support.
Representative Clarence Mcleod
(RO, of Michigan, author of bank
pay off legislation, fought what
seemed to be almost insurmount-
able odds during the last session
OF Congress to gain a part of the
relief for depositors in closed
banks that he sought.
His original proposal calling
for the RFC to purchase the assets
of closed banks and sell them
during a 10-year period for the
best possible prices, was altered in
some respects before it was en-
acted last session, but its passage
has resulted in relief for thou
sands of depositors in closed banks
throughout the country.

POLICE BUDGET
BOOST ALSO
SOUGHT
Estimates of 100000 for
Relief Cut ST 100000
BV Bureau Expert

A substantial increase in appro-
priations for public schools was
sought today by the District Com
missioners before the House SUBJ
committee holding hearings on the
District appropriations for 1886.
Exact figures were not given.
The Commissioners are also
understood to be making a strong
plea for increase in appropriations
for the Police Department.
Slash Relief Fund
1t was said on Capitol Hill TO-
day that the Budget Bureau had
slashed the estimates for $3,000,-
900 for emergency relief work by
$1,00O,000. Commissioner Allen
will make a strong plea that the
$1,O00,OO0 slash be returned when
members of the subcommittee
begin hearings on the emergency
item.
Despite the fact that President
Roosevelt has ordered a tax survey
of Washington to determine an
equitable amount of the Federal
Governments contribution to the
District, members of the subcom-
mittee said they would recommend
figure for this allotment during
the present hearings. The figure
could be changed, of course, by
Congress.
Cut Three Millions
It is believed the Budget Bureau
has slaShed the District Commis-
sioners estimates of more than
$44, 100000 to about $41,000,O00.
Civic and trade bodies will have
an opportunity to voice their opin-
ion on District appropriations
sometime next week.
The committee hearings are
scheduled to end shortly before
the holidays.
