WASHINGTON

THE Father of His Country" and its
first citizen for all time
This is tie high distinction history
gives to George Washington An aristo-
crat who could have been king of the
new country if he so wished, he was sin
cere in his efforts to eliminate royalty
and promote the cause of democracy
His was the leading personality in this
new doctrine of the equality of man
which sounded the death-knell of the old
belief in the divine right of kings.
Majestic and dignified, Washington
was also humble, and history gives no
greater indication of his high character
than the we'll known figure of the leader
of the Continental army kneeling in the
snow at Valley Forge. asking for Divine
guidance and assistance in keeping his
ragged little band together.
Other men, truly as jealous for liber-
ty, followed his footsteps elsewhere, some
with success and others with failure.
The French Revolution produced group
of leaders determined to abolish royalty,
yet none had the nobility of Washington,
something which accounts for the long
and vicious struggle which engulfed
France before it finally found stable
government. Emmett in Ireland, imbued
with ideals as pure and as unselfish as
washington, met with disaster, chlefly
through the treachery of his own people.
Kosciusko, the noble Pole who fought
with Washington, attempted to emulate
him by restoring freedom to his native
country, only to fail because of the over
whelming supremacy of numbers in the
Russian army and the indifference of
other Polish leaders. Later, in South
America, Simon Bolivar patterned his
activities after Washington liberating
state after state from Spanish rule.
Washington was the leader of democ-
racy and as such his name is known
throughout the world, to be honored as
long as the world lasts.
Nothing can give greater testimony to
the nobility of his character than the
honors paid him by the mother country
against whom he fought. Once consid-
cred a traitor to that country, with a
price on his head, today Washingtons
statue holds an honored place in its met
ropolis and the home of his ancestors is
a national Cor internationaD shrine for
lovers of liberty.
He sleeps on the banks of the beauti-
ful Potomac but lives forever in the
hearts of his countrymen and of all low
ers of true liberty.
The gold clause matter being settled,
the country can now turn to its most per-
picking question-is George Herman
Ruth going to play, or not?

Stable Silver Price Likely.
The inside expectation is that silver
will be kept at the existing price,
probably until after the turn of the

next year for political effect.
Marketeers believe that during the

buying little. Whenever distress silver
is offered in London, the govern
ment bids 2915 pence. That is what
keeps the price stabilized here at
about 659s cents an ounce, and is
likely to continue to do so.

Mrs. Henderson is said to have
agreed to sell the property TO the
Lithuanian government in May, 1924,
for 500, 900, and to have accepted an
initial payment of SIS 900. Later after
the Lithuanian government entered on
the property, Mrs. Henderson is said
to have refused to carry out the
agreement. No other payments were
made.
Before her death in 1881, Mrs.
Henderson,s adviser, Jesse Shima, is
said to have told the legation that his
employer was ready to complete the
transaction, but he was informed no
business would be done with him in

The petition says that in 1927 the

Subject to Variation.

NDJSNs w ga A1sAoNs
The foregoing is subject to variation
from time to time and also to changes
in plan due to altered conditions.
| Thus, very little of the $500, 900 900
for public roads can be spent right
away and probably will run over into
1887. This is also true Of housing
and of loans and grants to cities, as
well as river and harbor work
But the question of how fast or how
slow to spend is not altogether a mat
ter of spreading the funds into 1887
just to make better budget showing
The other horn Of the dilemma is
that the administration promised to
get 3,500,000 persons off the dole and
into some kind of useful job by No
vember of this year.
The latest figures show that about
1,500.0 900 have been classed as having
jobs. though about 100000 of these
are in the G. c. G. camps. This means
that only about 100000 have been
taken care of in the new made work
jobs. The problem is how to take
care of another 100000 in the same
way. The 3,500,00O have been on
Federal relief, so that it is largely q
question of transferring them from
local pay rolls of work relief or di-
rect relief to Uncle Sans direct pay
roll. This is what the Works Progress
Administration has been trying to do.
Projects Far From Workers.
Originally, the plan was really to
develop worthwhile projects which
private capital could not or would not
undertake. But the difficulty was that
the unemployed were largely concen-
trated in cities, while many of the
projects were far away. Likewise, the
average cost per man was too high to
take care of the unemployed. It took
six months for Government officials to
divide the amount of money available
by the number of men unemployed to
learn that they had only about 81, 100
per man to use for work relief.
When this fact was ascertained, 1t
was discovered that housing projects
cost about $2,500 per man and grade
crossings about $4,000 per man and
roads about $4,000 per person, and all
this was because of the heavy cost of
materials. Finally, after taking care
Of some of the large projects. there
was only enough to use $700 per man
for works progress. This practically
forced upon the New Deal a return
to the old c. w. A., which used to
cost about 5000 per man.
From now on, therefore, the admin
istration plan, despite its best inten-
tions, will be another G. w. A. The
tragedy of it, of course, is that no
plans are being made to absorb these
men in private employment. The re-
lief workers here think they never
will be absorbed, and that the Federal
Government will have to continue in
definitely to pour out billions to carry
on what Rex Tugwell calls a third
economy" under which the Govern
ment will keep on creating work for
the unemployed.
So the budget-balancing task that
faces MIR. Roosevelt Is one that at
best will make a good showing on
paper, but whether it will be borne out
by experience after the November,
1886, elections are out of the way is
something else again.

TWO ARE INDICTED
IN VETERANS FEE
Former Counsel of Agency
Here Accused of Excess
Collection.

In a case involving a disputed con-
struction of an economy act provision
relating to veterans benefits, William
Wolff Smith, former general counsel
OF the Veterans AdminisT alton, has
been indicted in Federal District
Court at Little Rock, Ark, on a charge
of collecting a fee in excess OF 10
per cent for obtaining compensation
award for veteran.
An associate counsel at Arkansas
also has been indicted, it was said
today at the Justice Department.
John Lewis Smith, representing the
defense, today described the indict-
meat as an outrage" and said the
money involved, $500, represented the
fee of both lawyers and had been COL
lected through Judgment obtained
in a State court In Arkansas. He

quashed.

The complaint originated in the
Veterans Administration where Smith
and associate counsel represented Ar
thur E. York of Corning, Ark. De-
fenSe counsel said the veteran de-
clined to pay the attorneys fee and
that a judgment thereupon was OBJ
tanned in State court and collection
made accordingly.
According to the records of the
Justice Department, the Veterans
Administration opposed the fee as in
excess of 10 per cent and disputed
Smiths contention that the veterans
benefit repeal clause Of the economy
act passed in the Roosevelt admins
tration took of that limit. The JUS
tice Department then presented the
case in court.
