fine sleep and in the morning his
cold was all gone.
The honey mush did it," he said
to his wife, hopping around on one
paw as he kissed her, for he felt
very fine. Mrs. Stubtail'S honey
mush cured my cold and now I'd
like to do something for her. Would

wife, "if I gave the bear leady

CITIZENS PROPOSE

fers Plan in Lieu of Fed
GRAFTON Suggestion.

National representation in the
House, Senate and electoral college and
a charter providing for home rule for
the District was favored last night by
the Forest Hills Citizens Association
In lieu of the draft Of the Federation
Of Citizens Associations plan for the
reorganization of the District gov
ernment.
L. A. Carruthers, president, charged
the draft of the federation does not
concentrate authority and RESPONSE
bility nor provide for any legislative
activity.
The tentative draft provides for a
council form Of government,
the councilmen to be elected by voters
who have lived in the District at least
one year, the members of the council
to be residents at least five years.
The council would act as legis-
1ative or policy-forming organization,
with the power to pass any rule, reg
ulation, ordinance or other legislative
matter ordinarily enacted by the city
council or a State Legislature. It

The right to borrow or to incur in
debtedness would be denied except on
approval Of Congress.
All judges Of primary, secondary or
courts Of original jurisdiction would
be elected in the same manner as the
council, or appointed by the council.
Judges of appeal, superior or su-
preme courts would be appointed by
the President on recommendation OF
the Department Of Justice.
It was also recommended in Car
ruthers' draft to include provisions for
referendum and recall. All municipal
employees, under the proposed plan,
would be bona fide residents of the
District.
Copies of the proposed plan were

tournament. The various titles at

While all the defending cham
pions are Eastern players, I pre-
dict that several of the trophies
this year will be won by Western
players. By having the tourna-
ment in Chicago, Western players
are attending in larger numbers,
since they do not have so far to
travel. There are some mighty
fine card players amongst the

Greatest interest for Chicago
players centers around the team
of four championships, as the
trophy for this event was pre-

"PrOteCting" the MinOrities

TT will be sheer impudence if Gen. Sheriff. con-
tends from now on that he is taking political
position in urging participation in the Berlin games
But the general is brass hat and the metal seems
to have entered into his speech, his soul and his
mental processes.
Hitler welcomed him warmly when he went
abroad to if any sort of racial discrimination was
being practiced in regard to the OlympicS. The
general has publicly stated that the rights of all
groups being protected.
Fortunately, for the sake of further Qualification
Hitler has just issued definition of what he means
by the word protect In justifying the policy of
persecution and segregation Hitler told Hugh Baie
that this policy protects the Jews.
In other words, when a non Aryan is sent to
concentration camp he is told that he is being i'm
prisoned that his rights may not be trampled on.
The issue has always seemed clear to me, and
do not see why there should be any confusion The
question is simple this: DO the American
people want to applaud Fascsm rebuke it?"

enge is plain 1t must be answered.
