Press Comment
DON'T wAsrE THE MONEY
(IIartford Timcs)

We are opposed absolutely to the enactment of either of two meas ures that have been put before the general assembly. One is that which would create q new public utilities board of seven members. 1t simply would make four new salaricd political jobs without add ing an iotn to the value Of tho commission.
 Tire other bill proposes that the state shall pay for q daily free din' ner for every member of the legis- iature during the session. Instead of passing such law the state might more appropriately look in- to the system as regards milage al- lowancs of ten cents q mile com Ing and going. In the instance of Greenwich the member is entitled to S16 dag on this head. Mem- bers from other points profit in proportion. Bus and train fares arc not haIf that amount. The ac- tuai automobile expense Involved does not anywhere nearly equal the allowance. t should be cut down by. 10 per cefA.
 The matter may seem not or prime importance but involves the taxpayers and there fs no moro sane reason why the state should feed the legislator one meal . day than threel If he were homo ne would feed himself mad he is rot out a penny because he gets his meal in Hartford Instead of New Haven, Bridgeport ct Goshen, as the cuse may 'bo.

It remained for Mickey and Minnie Mouse to put an almost bankrupt concern back on it's feet again. The playful char actcrs of Walt Disney were all that were needed to give the Lionel Corporation of Irvington, N. J., new lease of life. Perched astride miniature hand-car and given few feet of track this entertain ing toy revived the toy company and enabled it to emerge from receivership in eight months. This lifting of a company right out of receivership by it's boot-straps is called unprecedented by the courts and is just a proof of the market in the states that can be cracked.

COMEBACK

CordeIl Hull, grave secretary of state, has not forgotten what 1t is like Co be Il congressman, as Elmer Thomas found out tho other day in the Agriculture Committee hearing.
 The Oklahoma senator inter- rupted Hull, who had said some thing about our trade policies be- ing in the clutch of high preB- sure minoritics.
 "What do yOu mean by high . pressure niInortties?" asked Thomas.
 'I mean the sort of thing thai used to happen to mo in the House." Hull snapped back. 1.-TWO men send 50 tclegrams to me, and jump across the room. l saw that going on for 22 years. And if you stnty here that long, you'll sec 1t, too.'

Washington, Feb Con top Of the Soviet impasse on debts the State Department has run into another deadlock involving Russia.
 This one concerns tlic AIncPi- can Embassy in Moscow.
 American arcbitects have de- vised plans for beautiful new cdifice modelled after Thomas Jcfferson's Monticello. It would look down from q Moscow hill- top. The Sovietl government had donated n choice piece of park for the new embassy.
 But now the American archi- tect in charge says that Russian workmanship Is not sufficiently skilled to build the embassy. And the state department is support ing him.
 The situation Is delicate be- cause the United tSates govern. mcnt cannot well go on record against Russian engineers. At the same time lt cannot prO- cccd unless it Is sure the fln- isIIcd building will pass final in- spcctiOn tests.
 Ono difficulty is that so much ballyhoo has been given to plans for the building that any failure to proceed cannot escape notice in Russia.
 All of which leads the State Department nowhere, and is ono reason Ambassador Bill Bullitt wears such a long face these days as he paces the hushed corri- dors of diplomacy.

MUSICALE GIVEN
BY MacPHAIL TRIO

Mrs. H. N. Nupson, chairman od
the program committee for the
union meeting Of the four study
clubs, the Twentieth Century, the
Quality, the Sorosis and the Wo.
mans, welcomed the guests and
introduced the members Of the
MacPhail school ensemble, Miss
Marion Hutchinson, organist, By
rne Smith Griffith, harpist and
vocalist and Sally Larsen Peery,
reader, who gave the entertain
ment for the musicale held Mon
day afternoon at the Methodist
Episcopal church.
Miss Hutchinson began the pro-
gram with a well-contrasted
group of organ solos. She dis
played technical proficiency and
ease in handling the instrument
and her numbers were enjoyable.
The harpist, Mrs. Griffith, pre-
sented three solos on her too-sel-
dom heard instrument, displaying
rare artistry. Mrs. Peery's read
lngs were clever, original and en-
tertaining and she showed her
greatest ability in her Scandina-
Wan dialect work.
Mrs. Griffith next appeared as
a vocalist with Miss Hutchinson
at the piano singing three at
tractive songs by contemporary
composers. She has a light,
sweet soprano voice and present
ed her songs with a simplicity
and sincerity which made her
equally pleasing as singer and
harpist. In the second group of
organ selections, the folk song,
"The Herd Girls Sunday" was
most enjoyed. Miss Hutchinson
brought out the simple charm of
the piece very effectively.
In her second group of harp
solos, Mrs. Griffith's playing was
even more delightful than in the
first. The last of the group, her
own composition, "Waltz Caprice
was particularly good. She grac-
iously responded to an encore,
playing the ever-lovely Last
Rose of Summer.
After a second group of read
ings, the three artists united in
closing number, ably assisted
by Mrs. H. v. Starr at the piano,
Mrs. Peery sang "Her Song To
The Sea-" written by a relative
which celebrated the beauties of
Norway and was accompanied by
organ, harp and piano.
The auditorium of the church
was decorated with spring flowers
and pussy willows and bouquets
of vari-colored nasturtiums, snap.
dragons, orchid sweet peas anG
tulips were used in the adjoining
room where refreshments were

SAILOR FAMILY
VISITS CAPITAL

Is nine months out of each
year too long to spend on a
boat?
The seafaring "Tup' and TOD"
Robinson, and their two daugh.
tiers, Jane and Ann, will tell you
that it is not.
Cruising aboard the Cachalot,
their 86-foot ketch-rigged motor
sailer, is just as natural to them
as going to work every morning
is to most of us. The Cachalot
is now moored in the Potomac
River, near the War College, and
the only reason they are here
is to go shopping and renew
friendships.
Well known in Washington,
Captain" c. M. Tod" Robinson,
retired refrigerating engineer,
and his family live on their
estate, Rosecroft, in st. Marys
City. Md.-that is, when they are
not battling waves. Pride in their
estate equals their pride in the
Cachalot. Rosecroft is built on
the domestic of the first royal
collector of customs of The Port
Of the Potomac. The original
300-year-old home burned % years
ago.
Mrs. Robinson, known as "Tup,"
found on the Cachalot today, said
with smile of pride:
"The lockwood there is as fine
as any in Maryland"
Jane Robinson, Is, however, who
has an uncanny knowledge of
nautical things, and who knows
the operations of the Cachalot as
well as any experienced sailor,
would rather talk about the boat:
"She has 12O horsepower, the
most seaworthy small craft ever
built. 1t has a cruising radius
Of $500 miles with one fueling."
Jane, her fathers "first mate"
Sedulously studies Lloyd'S Regis.
ter and can remember and recog-
nize any type Of ship after having
seen it once. Blond Jane, who
looks much older than her IS
years, is going to study navigation
this summer. She is also prepar.
ing herself for a journalistic
career, and hopes to write on nau-
tical subjects.
Both girls, far advanced in
classes for their ages, have had
only two years of public schools
during their life.
The family will leave for Maine
next week. Jane is anxious to
take a trip to Norway. They
have been cruising for seven
years. Capt. Robinson has been
fond of the sea since he was
nine years old, Mrs. Robinson
admitted, and added:
'If it were not for a sailboat,
there possibly wouldn't be q
Seafaring family like u.s."
She explained that she and
her husband had met for the
first time on a sailboat.
