Too much stress cannot be laid the importance of the special bond election be held here Tuesday, July l6 in connection with the PWA Loan and Grant.
 During the past few weeks it has been noticeable that
 little interest was developed in this respect and consequent K the registration was uncommony low The fact remains however, that the city must pass the question of bonding and the records the election must be sent to the officials in Washington, D. c.
 Anayze for yourself the result should the authorities receive telegram of the vote on the eect1on and not more than 100 qualified property owners had cast their bal ots The answer is simpe-their imagination would be stretched beyond all recognition in order to believe that Nome would from that shoWng pay back her loan from the Federal Government.
 There the important feature of the entire elec- on Nome must present solid front to the authorities to convince them that the taxable property here is amply sui fcient to repay the loanbut it cannot do so full vote is not cast. .

sponsible for the contamination
Of the water?"
Captain York answered:
There is no doubt in my
mind that this was the cause Of
the pollution"
Action by District officials fol
lowed numerous complaints from
residents of the Southeast area
that they had been made i'll by
the water.
Captain York reported that the
dairy had been ordered to dis
connect its private water supply
from the District system. The
cross connections were removed
today.
Officials of the Water Depart
ment have been engaged in flush
ing out the water mains in the
section to remove all danger.
The assistant engineering
commissioner said the plumbing
department found several cross
connections between the artesian
well water supply of the dairy and
the District water used by the
concern.
DR.. James G. Cumming, chief
Of the bureau of preventable dis
eases of the District health office,
said there is now no danger in
the area. He advised, however,
that persons who have been
made i'll through the water sup
ply consult physicians. He said:
I'm some cases of illness from
bad water, there have been
after effects"
Analysis by District chemists of
the water in the area indicated
that some foreign element was
present.
Pipes Are Cut
Under the direction of Sam
Tapp, inspector of the plumbing
department, employees of the dairy
cut out the connection leading to
the well today, but permitted the
city pipes to co1Jinue operation.
The pipes ran the water to-
gether in a tank atop a roof of
a brick shed adjoining the dairy
plant. One pipe led to the we'll,
buried under the shed, while the
other was cut in on the city'S
water supply main.
The comingled water, Mr.. Tspp
explained. was run through other
pipes atop the shed for the dairy'S
cooling system and also for the
cleansing of milk cans.
Such a connection as was used
at. the dairy, Mr.. Tapp said, is in
violation of the municipal plumb
ing regulations, which prohibit
any connection whereby the city
water supply might mingle with
any other water supply and be-
come contaminated.
It was said by the District in
spection force that the comingled
water supply at the dairy had
been in use for about three years.

LAW PRACTICE.
B|LEARGUED !.

Overwhelming sentiment In favor
Of the bill to eliminate unau-
thorized practice Of law in the
District was expressed today be-
fore the judiciary subcommittee Of
the House District Committee.
James c. Wilkes, chairman Of
the unauthorized practice commit
tee of the District Bar Association,
testified that washington was one
of the few Jurisdictions in which
the practice of law is not con-
trolled by legislation. He ex-
planned that the only regulations
in effect were those set up to
govern attorneys permitted to
practice before the District Su-
preme Court.
Mr.. Wilkes declared that this
measure would penalize laymen
who are now allowed to hang out
a Shingle and draw up wills and
other legal documents without
appearing in court. He told the
committee his organization was
fully in favor of the bill.
H. Winslip Wheatley, president
of the District Bar Association,
said his association was entirely
in favor of the measure.

HULL ASKS END
Of EXTREMIST
NAT|ONAL|SM
Secretary of State Finds
Policy Is a Drag Upon
World Civilization
international News Service

A clarion call from Secretary
of State Cordell Hull to the ma.
lions Of the Old World to abandon
extreme economic nationalism
and cooperate in bringing about
economic recovery, echoed over
Europe today.
This appeal, it was learned.
however, was not intended as a
bid for the converting of any new
international economic conference
in the immediate future.
Farley Value Doubted
On the contrary, Secretary Hull
doubts that any tangible results
could be accomplished as such a
conference at the present time. He
believes the nations must first, in
their relations with one another,
evince a spirit Of cooperation.
Unless they show a disposition
to cooperate quickly. he believes
a great opportunity to create a
new era Of world prosperity will
be lost and chaos will follow.
Describing the world as ION the
threshold of a great industrial
and commercial revival" Secre.
tary Hull in a radio address in
connection with foreign trade
week, warned that the world must
join in restoring the free flow of
international commerce if ad-
vantage is to be taken Of the ex-
listing opportunity.
Favored Nation Plan Upheld
Defending his most-favored-na-
ton trade doctrine, by which
trade concessions are generalized
to all nations with which this
country has such treaties, Secre-
tary Hull declared abandonment
Of this principle would at once
mean a tremendous loss to
American exports"
ASsailing extreme economic ma
tionalism as "the greatest curse
of this age. he said:
"A nation which now lives
solely unto itself is a drag on
civilization, increases the danger
of its own position both eco
nomically and politically, stirs
up international animoSities and
threatens thereby the peace Of
the world"

u. S. Representative from Texas,
Author of the Soldiers Bonus Bill
Copyright. 1885. By Universal service)
President Roosevelt did not
present q single argument in his
veto Of immediate cash bonus
payment that will hold water
under close analysis.
In addition, he made some
statements believe directly con-
trary to actual facts. I can only
believe that he must have been
grossly miSadvised and miSin-
formed in preparing some parts
of his message.
Under Gag Rule
In his efforts to justify what
has been done for the veterans
through original issuance Of the
adjusted service certificates. the
President declared that the law
authorizing them, passed in 1924
was acted on by Congress after
full and free discussion.
Nothing could be more lncor.
rect so far as the House at least
Is concerned.
A Republican House at that
time put, through the Adjusted
Service Law under one of the
strictest gag situations possible in
Congress.
A Republican dominated COM
mittee refused to allow Demo
Gratis to be present at a secret
meeting where they wrote the
bonus bill as they saw fit. Then
they brought up the bill on the
floor under suspension of the rule.
That meant no amendments
could be offered-not even an IL
could be dotted or q ct" crossed.
The bill was passed under those
conditions-not under free and
frank discussion"
The President calls this class
legislation. In what way can it
be so determined? It is not a
special benefit for a class. It is
a DEBT long overdue, to the men
who were ready to die for all
classes.
This is not pay for patriotism.
If the veterans get their cash
now, they still will have been paid
only about one.fourth Of what
common labor received during its
service at home in civilian clothes
while soldiers were facing enemy
bullets at the front.
The President talks of veter-
ans benefits that have been
granted and of their cost. That
also has nothing to do with the
DEBT that is overdue. The pro-
posed payment is not a benefit,
not a gift, not really bonus. It is
settlement of an obligation
legally acknowledged by the ma
ton through its Congress.
Interest Not Paid
In declaring that the debt is
not due until 1945, the President
seemingly is making a strictly
technical and almost theoretical
statement, in my opinion. He
overlooks for one thing that when
Congress acted. seven years after
the war, it publicly acknowledged
the debt but overlooked that
seven years interest was due. No
effort has been made to pay that
interest.
The Presidents suggestion that
a demand for benefits for all vet
Grams would follow cash payment
now seems to me to be exactly
the opposite of what may be ex.
pected. The way to stop benefit
demands in the future is to PAY
NOW and settle the obligation
FOREVER.

penSatiOn."
He denied the Patman bill
would initiate the currency.
There is no difference be-
tween the currency to be issued
under this bill and the money
already issued and in your
pockets. And the money now
in circulation is wholly INSULT
cient for our needs.
"The issuance of two billion
dollars in new currency is not
imitation.
ut isn't even q start in re-
flatiOn. Back of this money is
our gold, our silver, everything
else that represents the honor
and integrity of this country.
"The design of this bill is to
put money into circulation in
every precinct and corner of
this country"
to consider the question Of over
riding the veto and a. vote on the
issue was expected during the
late afternoon.
House Acts Swiftly
The matter was placed before
the Senate yesterday after the
President made his dramatic ap'
peal to the joint session Of the
House and the Senate urging
them to sustain his veto, and al
most before the roar of the ap-
plause had died away the House
voted 1922 to SO to override his
veto.
When that action was mes
saged to the Senate, Senator Jo-
seph Robinson CD, Arkansas,
majority floor leader who is lead
ing the Presidents fight in his
last stand, and Senator Elmer
Thomas (DO, Oklahoma, cham.
pion of the Senate bonus forces,
jockeyed for position, finally
agreeing that the Senate would
meet early today and consider the
veto until final action is taken.
Debate Limited
The agreement also provides
that no Senator may speak
more than once or longer than
80 minutes on the veto. It is ex'
pected that not more than about
a dozen Senators will desire to
speak and that the outcome will
be known by 6 p. m. at the
latest.
Senator Robinson attempted to
have the matter disposed Of yes
terday, apparently believing that
an immediate vote would be to
the Administrators advantage.
However, Senator Thomas re-
fused to enter into such an agree.
ment, it being the Oklahoman'S
theory that the overnight delay
would aid him in gaining possibly
one or two votes.
With q full attendance in the
Senate, it will take SO votes to
override the veto.
McCarran Confident
Senator Pat McCarran Cd,
Nevada, who has been cooperat-
ing with Senator Thomas. as,
serted emphatically that the IS
votes will be available when the
roll is called. He said:
Il am satisfied that we will
override the veto. 1 can't tell
you why / am so confident but
the votes will be there"
On the other hand, Admins.
tration forces likewise claim to
have enough votes to sustain the
President.
Senator Bennett Champ Clark
O), Missouri, a bonus advocate
said that if the President is
sustained today he will immedi
ately offer a three-way compro
mise bonus payment plan and
ask that the rules be suspended
so that the proposals can be At
tached to an amendment to the

Home Tests
Of Progress
Not Wise
Growth of Child Easily
Determined by
Behavior.
BY ANGELO PATRI.

THIS is a plea for all school chill
dren and the babies in their
cribs. Please let them alone and
cease from measuring them by this
new test and that new test. There is
one certain test, and done only-the
behavior of the child. AS long as he
behaves in healthy, ordinary fashion
little good, little not SO good. a
trace of angelic sweetness, shade of
unholy wickedness, an altogether hap
piness in living, let him alone. Fore
bear to test him.
If you saw a grower pulling up
seedlings to see how they are growing;
If you saw him trying first this mix
ture, now that; changing the soil, pok-
ing about the roots Of his charges, you
would wonder at his braShness. Yet
that is what happens to many chill
dren In this education-conscious world
today. Everybody is helping to edu-
cate the children, to find what is the
matter with them, and cure them and
drive them ahead to some vague goal
called success.
Hold your hand when tempted to
try out another test. To the child
who is being tested such an experience
Is a severe trial Children, all chill
dren, want 10 succeed. Every one of
them longs to win approval of the
grown people about him, longs to
shine in the face of his fellows. The
clinhtocf iFtiraofinFN fhoS hn Dc
SO good, that he is failing to reach the
high standards set for him, sends his
spirit down.
Now, a child grows best when his
| spirit scars. Affection, appreciation,
acceptance Of him as he is, fills him
with power. He is ready to fight lions
of lessons, of adjustments, of trial and
pain. Take away that feeling of fit
ness, of security in the opinions of his
nearest and dearest, and he has no
courage, no strength to face the
struggle.
School life is a daily struggle for
children. Every new problem de-
mands fresh vigor for its solving.
Every new situation calls for release of
reserve power. Each teacher that ap-
pears before him makes q fresh de-
mand upon his vitality. He needs
every ounce Of power he can muster
for the days work. He needs to go to
school every morning stimulated,
| eager, strong for the task ahead Of
him. If he was tested the night be-
fore and found wanting according to
| some standard set up by somebody,
you can readily see that he has been
untitled for his work. The test has
done harm.
Children are tested daily in the
class room, on the playground-ev-
erywhere that they are in action there
is somebody, some force, measuring,
adjusting, informing the child of his
standing. The teacher tests her class
regularly. repeatedly. Surely that is
enough.
There is one certain test-the
child's behavior. If he acts like a
healthy child, sleeping well, eating
heartily, playing happily, getting Q
passing mark in school, leave him
alone. If he is failing, 1t Is time to
test him, but that test must be made
by skilled specialist, the physician
specialist first; then, If he feels it is
necessary. the psychologist. The less
testing the better.
