PEACE IS HOPE
Of MEXICAN
CATHOLICS
Copyright, 1898. by International News

Copyright, 1898. by International News
service)
MEXICO CITY, June IS
U.N.SD time is ripe for
permanent settlement Of the long
Smouldering dispute between
church and state in Mexico, Arch
bishop Pascual Diaz, titular head
Of the Roman Catholic hierarchy
in this country, told International
News Service today.
In his first public utterance
since President Lazaro CardenaS
consolidated his position with a
new cabinet bereft of the anti
clerical elements which character.
lied his former regime, the arch.
bishop inferentially issued an in
vitation to the government to ad.
just differences.
Peace Efforts Urged
Archbishop Diaz declared:
This is an Opportune moment
to bring about the spiritual
peace which the entire republic
needs so much.
Every effort should be made
to arrive at q good understand
ing between the church and
State"
The archbishop said he was
without knowledge of the Govern
ment's future plans and added
that he is praying constantly"
that the situation will define it.
self at an early date.
The prelate said he was unable
to set forth his conception of a
basis for the accord pending fur
ther study of the situation.
Hope in CedillO and Tapia
Meanwhile, Catholic hopes Of
permanent suspension of the
governments anti.clerical policy
center on the influence of two
cabinet ministers with President
Cardenas.
These two are Gen. Saturnino
Cedillo, minister of agriculture,
and Gen. Rafael Sanchez Tapia,
minister of national economy.
General Cedillo is expected by
the Catholics to take the leader
ship in an effort to suspend the
anti-clerical policy entirely. He
put an end to it in his own state
of San Luis PotoSi and was strong
enough to prevent its revival.
Long ago he made known to
President Cardenas his opposition
to anti-church measures.
Educated for Priesthood
General Tapia was educated for
the Jesuit priesthood. Catholics
generally believe both men will
counsel moderation.
Throughout Catholic circles
there is general expectation the
government will move slowly in
the situation. Those hopeful OF
permanent settlement recall the
presidents words at Cuautla, when
he expressed satisfaction with the
support he is receiving from all
classes of citizens, interpreting
this as definite indication he will
strive not to ALLEVIATE the Cath
olicS.

How many persons realize the
immense amount Of administra.
tive detail connected with the
operation Of an amusement park?
It is generally assumed that
operating an amusement park
consists of merely opening the
gates and allowing the crowds to
enter. What is done, and in par.
ticular at our own Glen Echo. to
assure patrons the utmost in
wholesome amusement and safety,
is an achievement in modern
management.
The personnel at Glen Echo,
numbering 218, may be compared
to a well-trained army. Leonard
B. Schloss. director OF the park
for IS years. is the Colonel-he
recently received his commission
from Governor Ruby Lafoon Of
Kentucky.
Eighty per cent of the sold
iers" at Glen Echo have been
under Colonel SchloSs' command
from five to twenty years. First
of all. it is the duty of the white.
wings brigade to see that the park
and buildings are kept clear OF
waste paper and inflammable
material. They are also required
to keep the park scrupulously
clean. which Is one reason why
it is so popular.
Colonel Schloss' right-hand man
Is Major Joseph Hart. superin'
tendent Of Glen Echo Park for
% years. Major Harris duties are
numerous. for he is personally
responsible for the efficient oper'
alton of more than fifty devices,
attractions and features. and the
lighting and motor equipment.
382,29O Watts Light Park
BY actual record of count there
are 6.346 mazda lamps ranging
from 10 to 1000 watts and con-
Stunning during the night for
Glen Echo's illumination 382,290
watts of current.
The motor equipment under
Major Harris direction numbers
SO. ranging from 1s-horse power
motors on "dodgem' cars to a
IS H. P. motor to handle the
coaster dip" three-car trains.
Kitchen and food stands, to.
gether with electric ranges, coffee
urns, steamtables and hot water
heaters require constant atten.
ton as the combined units pull
a load Of $4,000 watts.
Owing to the constant vigilance
of Major Hart and his aides, one
seldom finds lamps out" at Glen
Echo, and the brilliant display Of
illumination of modern design
and even futuriStic character was
conceived and installed by Major
Hart long before the Century Of
Progress and Radio City adopted
their elaborate lighting effects.
In order to obtain the maxi
mum Of mechanical efficiency at
Glen Echo it was found necessary
several years ago to establish a
carpenter shop, plumbing shop.

Great Responsibility Involved
More than inspections, how.
ever, are required by Colonel
Schloss, for the operation OF
Glen Echo includes other details,
all involving great responsibility.
The quartermaster department
is in charge of Major Harry
Cohen and Captain Abe Schu-
man, park restaurateurs for Is
years. Purity is the first consider
alton in preparing the thousands
of frankfurters, sandwiches and
doughnuts consumed every week
by park patrons.
Major Andys (Reuben N.
Anderson) popcorn, CONNECTIONS.
roasted peanuts, salt water taffy
and candied apples are also pre-
pared with the care and skill
that have made them Justly
famous. A mill is part of Andy's
equipment at the popcorn stand,
where the more than two-year'
old corn Is carefully shucked and
cleaned before entering the mod
ern electric pepper.
Another important department
is that of Adjutant Harmon
Brown, park horticulturist. It is
due to his skill and attention
that Glen Echo is always beau
titled with appropriate shrubs
and flowers.
Upon the uniformed guards
devolves one Of the most i'm
portant assignments at Glen Echo,
for they must and do preserve
good order. When one remembers
that the average attendance at
Glen Echo is approximately TOO.
600 persons each summer, the
task Of the guards Is no light
one.
In addition to the regular
police force headed by Chief
Dan Collins and Privates Murphy,
Soper, Day. Howard. Sullivan and
Perry, a special contingent OF
plain clothes men" patrol the
park. thus insuring protection
and order at all times.
Two departments that demand
the utmost in efficiency at Glen
Echo are the Midway Of Fun,
with % devices, in charge Of
Captain Tom Mulligan. veteran
Snowman, and the penny-arcade,
supervised by Major Steve Mar
oney, who controls SO different
amusements.

90 per cent of the articles lost
at Glen Echo are found and
eventually reclaimed by their
owners. The remaining 10 pei
cent of unclaimed articles arr
sent at the end Of the season tt
various charitable organizations.
Captain Clyde Mcdaniel is IL
command of his aides at the new
three-acre parking lot at GleI
Echo, and they are PERSONAL!
responsible for the parking O.
300 cars every afternoon ant
night.
Many of the smaller amuse
ment features operated through
out the park likewise require
particular specialized supervision
such as the buying of merchan
disc for the skill stands. This Il
done by jovial Lieutenant Billy
Farrell. Even the skee-ball alley
must be inspected every morning
by Second Lieutenant JOSEPH
Nasiff for any defects that ma!
have occurred to the score re
cording automatic registers from

Courtesy Important Detail
The ticket sellers brigade anc
the cashiers battalion. composed
of ~ girls selected for theil
courtesy and efficiency. is an
other important detail at Gler
Echo. All ticket sellers and cash
iers make their reports at tn
end of each day to Captain
Harry Spicer.
OF course a well-conducteC
amusement park would not b'
efficiently handled without ar
efficient secretary. Mrs. Otesc
Hastings competently fills the bill
and assists in the many detail!
connected with office adminiStra
ton.
Gunner Norman Stuckey. late
OF the British Army, is director Of
Public Relations. He also occupie.
an important office at Gler
Echo, where he arranges details
for picnic parties and is engaged
in promotional and publicity as
Signments.
Lastly. the Spanish Garden
Ballroom, where $500 couples
dance every night, except Sun
days, to the strains of Band
master Dave McWilliams' 12-piect
orchestra directed by Attorney
Phil O'Brien. Is subject to the
same policy Of efficient operation
that prevails throughout the en-
tire park. which represents IN
vested capital totaling $750.000.
Thus L. may be seen that there
is more to the operation Of ar
amusement park than merely
opening the gates and allowing
pleaSure-Seekers to file in.

are made fors the season. while
during the summer there is prac
