, Canada, en- route to China There

|SSENT PRESIDENT
Senate, House Agree on
Few Remaining Confer
ence Report Questions.

Carrying series of important items
of interest to Washington, the $273.-
100000 second deficiency appropria-
ton bill is going to the White House
today for signature, both Senate and
House having agreed yesterday to
a few remaining conference report
questions.
While this is the last of the regu-
lar supply bills, a resolution prob
ably will have to be considered be-
fore adjournment to make funds avail
able for the Federal aid programs
contemplated in the social security
program.
Included among the District fea-
lures of the bill are: For the District
Health Department, 1000 for an
enlarged program of disease preven-
ton; to extend the park and play
ground system, 100000, to be ad-
vanced by the Treasury, but repaid
later by the District government un-
der the Capper-Cramton law; ap-
proximately 100000 of miscellaneous
deficiencies for various municipal
agencies.
Three Federal building projects are
in the bill, namely enlargement OF
the Government Printing Office, the
Bureau of Engraving and Printing,
and remodeling of the old Pension
Building in Judiciary Square.
Just before the bill passed yester-
day the House agreed to the Senate
proposal to complete the air-condi-
tioning of the Capitol, House and
Senate Office Buildings, at cost OF
$2,550 900.

Insurrection, and finally that easy
chair on his Portland home porch,
almost in the shadows Of majestic,
snow-capped Mount Hood.
Day after day, week after week,
"the old man of the mountains"
stared at the stateliness of the
nearby range until he no longer could
resist the temptation to become
temporarily at least-a part of the
serenity, peace and beauty 1t repre-

through his Mount Hood climb.
Having long ago climbed most of
the snow-capped peaks Of the North

gressively topping the lesser noun
tains east Of the Rockies to complete
his list. Other than the District of
Columbia, his most recent trip was
up the spruce-strewn sides of Mount
Katahdin, which with Mount Mitchell

Climbing is great sport" the Army
officer declared. Offsetting the actual
hiking and sometimes hazardous
climbing, is good fishing, undeniably
marvellous outdoor meals. and that
grand aroma of fir, pine and other
trees. Many things of interest hap
pen, too," the colonel pointed out.
"Once while climbing and you may
believe this. for it's true" he added,

my Indian guide, Kotacha, had a

In his Mount Katahdin guide, Col.
Hotchkiss found a brother World War

promised to look up his records here
to see II any bravery awards awaited
him. Upon doing so the colonel was
surprised to find both the Purple

CHIMNEY CRASH ON BED
HURTS 1OF 3 CHILDREN

Collapse of brick chimney at Ala
I street early today on a bed oc-
cupied by three sleeping colored chill
dren resulted in the injury of Rob-
ert Valentine, jr., Z, who was cut
about the leg and arm.
Robert was sleeping near the wall
with his brother Randolph, 9, and
sister Eloise, S, when the chimney
collapsed onto his right side. His
parents, asleep in the same room,
pulled him from the wreckage and
rushed him to a neighborhood ply

4 feet square was torn in the CHM

THREE STATES LOSE
DOLE SEPTEMBR |
F. E. r. A. Officials Determined
to End Direct Relief by
November.
BY the Associated Press.


Expressing renewed determination
to end Federal contributions toward
direct relief by November l, F. E. R.
A. officials said today they would cut
three States off the dole September /.
The officials, who preferred not to
be quoted by name, said similar action
is planned for eight additional States
September IS and 80 others October l.
Refusing to name the States in
advance, they said they would be
selected according to progress in trans
ferring unemployable relief clients to
State and local governments and in
getting work projects underway.
Apparently preparing for this step,
Harry L. Hopkins, the relief admin
istrator. has granted direct relief
funds to 13 States only for the first
half of August.
1t was repeated officially that the
main difficulty in liquidating F. E.
R. A. has been ending Federal assist
ance to those on relief who are unable
to work. These numbered 1900, 900
when the present effort to transfer
them to State and municipal care

Col. Hotchkiss settled back in his

alluring. No matter how many I see

U. s. A., an ambition that had re-
Smained dormant for almost half q
century.
Realization of a boyhood ambition
began to take definite shape as the
Army officer gazed at the 1928 feet
of everlasting snow and ice from the
luxury of an easy chair on the front
porch of a new Summer home.
That was five years ago in Port
land. Now. at SIS, Col Hotchkiss
proudly asserts he has topped the
highest points of % States, including
the District of Columbia-and by the
time he is so, will have climbed them
all.
At present Col. Hotchkiss Is sta
toned at the War Department here,
attached to the general staff.
This perhaps accounts for WASH
ington, whose high spot is not so high,
being his most recent conquest. But
lacking in height as it may be, it does
not lack interest. For from the old
water tower on the Tenleytown peak
you not only get an unusual view of
the Nations Capital, but with the aid
of binoculars furnished by a guide,
may see hill 80 miles distant where

SECURITY ACT
DISCUSSED BY
POWER CHIEF

Herbert Dewes, assistant to pres
i,ient and general manager of the
Southern Sierras Power company,
spoke to a joint meeting of the El
Centre and Calexico KiWanis clubs
at luncheon yesterday, explaining
provisions of the Social Security Act
passed by the 74th congress and ap-
proved by President Roosevelt on
August IA
The speaker stated that a period
of one year has been set aside for a
study of established old age pension
and retirement salary programs of
private industry, in order to de-
termine whether private plans, al
ready established, may continue.
DeWes said in part:
ut is readily apparent that the
Social Security Act is divisible into
Two distinct categories: ID Those
which arise from the desire of the
federal government to provide fl
nancial assistance to the needy who
deserve it; and CD those based upon
the principle of contributory indus
trial insurance to be operated by
the government.
I'm the views of the minority
members of the senate finance COM
mittee and the house committee on
ways and means, The act should
have been divided INTO two separate
bills, so as not to confuse and CO.
mingle the economic principle OF in
dustrial insurance with the serti-
mental emotions connected with
providing for the needy and infirm."
The CaleXico club was led by Fern
Young, president with Bill Benniug-
ton of CalcXiCo in charge of the pro-
gram.
