DEEPENING OF sUSQUEHANNA
DISAPPROVED

Colonel Earl 1. Brown. U. s. di-
vision engineer for this part Of
Maryland, reports that the River
and Harbors Committee of the
House of Representatives has acted
unfavorably upon the proposition to
deepen The channel OF the SusQue-

from deeper channel would be in

Maryland's Five Hum
dred Thousand
May First Child Health Day
BY Special Proclamation
or The President

call for the nationwide observ-
ance of May Day--the first OF May
as Child Health Day, has been made
in a special proclamation by Presi-
dent Roosevelt.
The countrywide celebration OF
NAV Day. as Child Health Day, is the
outgrowth of suggestion made
eleven years ago by the American
Child Health Association. A Few
years later The plan was given official
sanction by an Act of Congress. Be-
cause the health needs of the chill
dren of each community are OF
fundamental Importance in all activi-
ties for public health, Child Health
Day is especially sponsored by the
Conference of State and Provincial
Health Authorities of North America
the official organization OF State
Health Officers-which constitutes
the National Committee for the OBJ
servance. Dr. r. H. Riley, Director
of the State Department of Health, is
the Maryland representative on the
National Committee and DR.. j. H. M.
Knox, Jr., Chief of the Bureau Of
Child Hygiene of the State Depart
ment of Health, is Chairman of the
State Committee for Child Health
Day. The committee includes repre-
sentatiyes of State, City and County
Departments of Health and of Edu-
cation; State and County Medical
Societies; service clubs; and of
wide range of organizations interest
ed in the health and well-being OF
the children and young people in
Maryland.
Speaking of the significance OF
Child Health Day, DR.. Knox said:
According to the U. S. Census rec
ords, the children under sixteen con-
stitute nearly a third of The total
population of the country. Applying
that estimate to Maryland, we realize
tina. we have about 100000 boys and
girls in that age group in this State.
We can visualize the health needs of
these youngsters II we think of them
as divided into three practically
equal groups. The babies under a
year old and the youngsters under
school age, belong in the first group;
the boys and girls, from five or six
to ten, who have started to school, in
the second; and the older boys and
girls, still in school or getting ready
to leave school, in the third.
1.-The first requisites in any plan of
health protection are obviously, ade-
quate care, food and shelter. Other
minimum requirements include medi-
cal supervision all the year round;
protection in infancy or early child
hood from diphtheria and smallpox;
health inspections at regular inter-
walls to insure freedom from avoid
able physical handicaps; prompt cor
rection of conditions in need of at
tention; community provision for
play and recreation and opportunities
for normal health, growth and devel-
opment, physically, menally and
spiritually.
1.-The Job of meeting these needs
offers a challenge to all thoughtful
men and women in Maryland"

SUN PEEPS OUT,
HIDES AGAIN

Rays Of sunshine piercing cloudy
skies early today brought mo-
mentary respite to Washington
from the continuous murky
weather Of the past week.
AS farmers in nearby Maryland
and Virginia checked the damage
to crops and battled with almost
impossible roads, the Weather
Bureau forecast gloomy skies and
higher temperatures for the Dis.
trict. Although no rain is fore
cast for today, April showers will
resume their intermittent drizzles
tomorrow, the Weather Bureau
reported.
The rain Of the past week is
insufficient to cause a local flood,
the Weather Bureau said. How
ever, swollen tributaries Of the
AnacoStia River yesterday mum
dated the bridge over the rivulet
along the Washington Boulevard,
but the water began to recede to-
day and the road was opened to
traffic.
During the flood along the
Washington Boulevard yesterday
traffic had been detoured through
Mt. Rainier and Rhode Island
Avenue.

Button, button, who's got the

Well, Senator Huey Long has
two.
One is his famous "Everyman q
King" button and the other is a
Kingfish button. While the second
one was put out by jeweler in
Louisiana, who copyrighted it and
is selling it, Long cohorts proudly
display them as a mark Of allegi-
ance to the Kingfish.
AS for the expected "Huey for
President" button, it just hasn't
materialized in Washington. Not

that it might not be spreading

just a-bornin'.
At Senator Longs office yester-
day, it was said that the Senator
was in Louisiana and that as far
as his headquarters here knew,
there wasn't any such button.
They had received a number of
letters suggesting slogans and but

"The Senator hasn't author
lied any button as yet because
he hasn't completely organized

It Is War

Perhaps the best thing the people of the United States could do in connection with the Ethiopian war would be to make a firm resolve not to let the tragic affair get hold on their emotions. It is start ing off, like all wars, with an emotion stirring episode calculated to make the folk on the sidelines roar.
 Italian bombing planes circle over a town full of non-combatants. The air IS filled with that most terrifying of all noises, tie rising whine of airrlane en- zines. Down come the bombs; maybe a Red Cross hospital is bombed and maybe it isn't, but it seems certain that among the numerous dead, down in the splinters and broken rubble of the ruined houses, are large number of women and chll- dren.
 A thing like this is unspeakably horri- ble; horrible enough to make man want to denounce civilization and all it's works. But there is no sense in letting it cause us to direct our indignation agains the Italian airmen, or even against the high command that ordered the bombing raid
 For this affair, this bombing of Aduwa, was not piece of Italian heartlessness. It was simply, unmistakably, piece of
  as we'll rid ourselves of the delusion that war has anything in common with college football. It might help us, in gaining this understanding, to remember some of the things that our own soldiers have done under similar circumstances.
 When we drove the Indians off of our western plains bit of imperialism, incl dentally, almost exactly like that of the Italians in Ethiopia - we had no air planes to drop bombs, but we had pretty fair substitutes. Over and over again, our gallant soldiers surrounded Indian villages by dark and opened a lombard ment with small arms and artillery at dawn, shooting down women and children in cold blood With that on our record, it hardly becomes us to hold our hands too high in horror over the bombing of Aduwa. '....'.'.'
 The thing is horrifying, to be sure; but it is war itself that should be the object of our horror. War, after all, is just what General Sherman said it was. It is a shocking denial of all that civilization stands for. To expect a nation to make war without committing crimes against humanity is as foolish as to expect a jungle tiger to support himself without willing anything.
 There will be many repetitions of this Aduwa tragedy before this war is over Let Us understand them for what they are - not evidences of Italian wicked ness, but bloody illustrations of the eS- sentjal and unacceptable hideousneSs of war.

Speed, and speed, and more speed seems to be the thing. The newest in streamline locomotive novelties left New York this week for the midwest, where it will then start in on regular schedule run be- tween St. Louis, Missouri and Burling- ton, Iowa. The new choo-choo is Diesel engined, does eighty miles an hour and is called the Mark Twain after our first humorist. The four-carred train goes through Hannibal, Mo-, Twain's boyhood home, thus the name. The individual cars of the train are named after some of the well known Mark Twain charac- ters, SO if you hear of friend travelling from thus and so to such and such by Tom Sawyer you will understand he is not attempting to spring new slang expression.
