Rough Dry is a great money
saving service. This is espe-
cially true now, since the price
has been reduced to SC.
Yet the name Rough Dry" is
NOT exactly a descriptive
name. To illustrate what we
mean by a descriptive" name,
there's Damp Wash" for ex-
ample.
In Damp Wash we wash
everything, and return it
damp, ready for ironing. It's
a good service-a much
needed service "a service
most attractively priced (only
41ac a pound, the latter half
of each week)-and, because
of these advantages, would
naturally be extremely popu-
lar-but We believe the very
n A ME itself has helped
enormously to introduce it
into so many homes.
Now, Rough Dry is a much
better service-actually more
for the patrons money than
Damp Wash and, in our opin-
ion, a really descriptive name
for Rough Dry" will intro
duce it into more homes.
Put on your thinking cap
60 after one of those prizes.
Remember, this is not a con-
test in brilliance, or in literary
ability-it's just an applica-
ton of plain common sense.

The District Commissioners will

missioner George E. Allen.
The subject, brought into public

ing OF representatives of interested
agencies at pm Friday at the of

The District Commissioners are con-
WINGED that recrea tional facilities here
are a municipal function and that
since there is District government
the'f1nal control ultimately should be
vested in the District Commissioners.
rather than in a Federal or school
body.
However, Allen said the three
authorities apparently are far apart on
the point as to which one best would
be qualified to have the deciding con-
troll, and that as matters now shape
up the first step should be to seek a
means of co-ordinating recreational
activities.
1t appears that the question of final
control may be left for determination
by Congress, since legislation would
be necessary unless a satisfactory sys-
tenn of coordination could be estab-
lished.

stop signs at hazardous Intersections:
failure to stop before emerging from
alleys or private roads: speeding past
school buildings or children's play
grounds, ignoring the rule TO stop,
look and listen" before crossing rail-
road tracks at grade.
These are but q, few OF the errors
in driving that lead to disaster. They
are an in violation of the first prin-
ciplts OF highway safety. Unf0rtu-
nately the rule-breaking minority are
seldom punished, save when their
blunders or deliberate violations lead
to accidents. Even then, il they sur
vive the effect of their carelessness or
reckleSsness, they are In many cases
permitted to continue driving, with
the almost certain eventual effect Of
repeated disaster.
No law, said the conference-as
it has often said before-is self
operating and self-enforcing. Behind
its provisions must be the mechanism
of enforcement, strong, virile and ef-
fective To this end the conference
urges that every State now lacking
such an agency should provide an
adequate and well-manned admins
trative set-up for road supervision
and enforcement. This need has been
recognized by all the States, but they
vary widely in their conceptions Of
the necessary organiza ton and the ex
tent OF It's powers and duties. There
fore the conference offers q model
form of road administration.
One of the most lamentable aspects
of this matter is that road accidents
are regarded by the public generally
as unavoidable and the death reckon
ing as part OF the price to be paid
for rapid highway transit. Were
the rule breakers alone the victims
of their own folly and defiance Of
the laws of the road, this philosophy
might be tolerated. But they are not.

cludes the innocent, victims Of q
veritably murderous mania for speed

States and Highway Safety.

Recognition OF the regulation Of
street and highway traffic as one OF
the most important of the problems
now before the American people was
attested by the national conference
held in this city recently. the fourth
of series of meetings to deal with this
matter. The outstanding need was
held to be the adoption by the States
of comprehensive and well-conceived
traffic laws, consistent in their re-
quirements and enforced through gen.
eral supervision. The State law is
the foundation of effective regulation.
But the State law is ineffective If not
harmonious in its requirements with
the laws of other States or il enforce
ment and observance are not uniform.
In the summary Of the proceedings
OF the conference the department notes
certain faults on the part of motorists
that conduce to accidents, such as
weaving from one road lane to an
other in fast-moving or dense trafic,
leaving the proper lane to overtake
other vehicles near the crest of hills
or on curves with obstructed vision;
failure to maintain proper distances
between cars moving in the same di-

ments of Communist hue and by the
rival political forces bent upon re-
storing the former Grau San Martin
party to ONCE. Bomb attacks and
other forms of terrorism were spread
ing throughout the island. Riots
incidental to an A. B. c. party
political demonstration led to blood
shed on an extensive scale.
1t is taken for granted that the
embargo on American arms ship
ments was requested by the Cuban
government as q necessary means to
help it suppress incipient new revo-
luton in the island. Smuggling Of
arms into Cuba from Florida and
other Southern sections has recently
been in progress, In violation OF
Cuban laws. President Mendieta, who
was promptly recognized by the
United States, continues to possess
Washington's full confidence and the
action President Roosevelt has just
taken is a fresh token of this coun-
trys desire and hope that the present
regime at Havana will contrive TO
sustain itself and vouchSafe Cuba at
length that peace and political quiet

tons transactions with American
banking houses
There is little our Government can
do about this" thinks the Richmond
News Leader. making the statement
that "repudia ton. like treason. be
comes unpunishable when il becomes
general" The Pasadena Post SUE
gests that when the United States
agreed not to intervene in the island
there was no agreement not to send
a dunning letter"
The CubanS might see nothing
smiss in joining the gOOdly COM
pany Of defaulters." states the Worces-
ter Gazette. which makes the COM
ment on the financial situation: The
Chase National Bank of New York,
which figured in some of these loans,
states that they were approved by
competent legal authorities when
made. According to the bank. the
only reason given for repudisting
them is that Machado held ONCE
illegally. But. as the bank statement
points out. Machado was recognized
by the United States Government.
The logical inference follows that re-
pudiation of a dictator doesn't carry
with it reputation of his government
debts. The proposed course
is to be deprecated. not only for
financial reasons. but because a con-
troversy over debts. while the Cuban
people in large numbers are still
going jobless and hungry. would be
bound to intensity the native hos
tility toward America. We practically
ousted Machado for them. We have
repealed the Platt amendment. and
abandoned the right of intervention.

Arms for Cubs.

Chronically turbulent conditions in
Cuba, which have latterly menaced
the security of the Mendieta regime,
have led the United States Govern
ment to take yet another step to
promote stability and tranquility in
the troubled island.
President Roosevelt on Friday
issued a proclamation which in effect
places an embargo on shipments of
American arms to rebellious ele-
ments in Cuba Henceforward no
shipments will be made except under
licenses issued by the State Depart
ment, and no licenses will be forth
coming that are not approved by the
Cuban embassy in Washington. The
purpose is TO limit arms supplies from
this country to those required by the
Havana Government Alone.
The embargo is imposed under a
treaty with Cuba signed in 1925,
whereby each country agreed to CO.
operate to exclude exports objec-
tionable to the other. Secretary Hull
urged the action just taken as nee
essary to fulfill our treaty obligations
to Cuba and as being in conformity
with THE good neighbor" policy. He
furthermore explained that the en-
barge is by no means novel or un-
precedented." Embargoes have been
previously declared by the United
States under a joint resolution Of
Congress passed in January. 1922
In the intervening twelve years EN-
baeoes have been imposed with ref
ASence to Brazil, China, Cuba, Hon
duras. Mexico and Nicaragua. Those
affecting China, Honduras and Mica
raeua are still in effect.
President Roosevelts new move
regarding Cuba is Of course designed
to aid the Mendieta government In
its struggle to retain power and
maintain orderly conditions. There
has lately been recrudescence Of
turmoil at Havana and in the prov
inces. fomented by subversive ele-
