IL Different Street Car Tickets Sold
For Sunday Rides in Austrian Capital

up or the down direction. 1t is COM
plicated, but so is the brain that
evolved the idea.
Return Ticket Provided.
On Sundays the 20-groschen ticket
is out of order-unprocurab A
torrent of German will welcome you
If you ask for one. In its place is
a return street car ticket Of vary
ing value. The brain that thought
up the idea worked on the sensible
logic that people like to ride longer
distances on Sunday than on week
days and that there is little short
haulage business with stores and
factories and Offices closed. Further
good logic, If you ride on Sunday
you must return before Monday or
you lose your job. Hence q return
ticket is some assurance.
On Sundays, also, street car con-
ductors sell railroad tickets. If you
desire to visit your maiden aunt out
in the country or even the historic
remains of a fourteenth century
castle, you inform the street car con-
ductor of this little weakness. Pay him,
say, / schilling and 10 groschen and
he gives you a slip Of paper emitting
you to go by street car to the station.
Here you use the same ticket and
board third-claSs coach, for you
seldom find any class distinctions or
snobbery on railroads on Sunday, and
of you go. Hang on to the ticket, for
it is good for return passage on train
and on street car. At the end of the
journey it is handed back to you
neatly punched full of round and
square holes, an odd corner or two
torn of.

VIENNA, Austria. - On Sundays
there are IL different sorts of street
car tickets; on week days there are
only 10. Most persons agree on that
one fact, though few of them can
recite what the 10 OF IL sorts of
tickets are. 1t seems as if the genius
that governs the lives Of street car
conductors sits no ell night and every
night thinking up little complexities.
A Vienna street car conductor has
to carry much information IN his
head. In company with his colleagues
in other parts Of the world he has to
know his city thoroughly. He must
know every street even if it Is only
one block long and out of touch with
most street car facilities. Occasion-
ally he is asked 70 point out land
mark-the monument to Goethe or to
Johann Strauss, st. Stephens dome,
the Dominican KeilaT.
This is all very fine, but it Is the
smallest part OF his task. He must
be an expert accountant and know
which ticket to give and which to
withhold. Furthermore he must know
the day of the week, the date of the
month and whether to issue q white,
blue or yellow ticket.
Fare Changes On Sunday.
On Sunday, for example, he cannot
issue a 20-groschen ticket. These are
good only on week days. The normal
fare for a Vienna street car tide Is
35 groschen-or about ? cents. If you
wish to go only q short distance from
one zone to the end Of that same zone,
you may pay 20 gIoschen, provided it
is not Sunday.
You may stand on the front plat
form with the motorman. In this
case you do not buy street car
ticket. Instead you slip 10 groschen
into the metal box, or you slip it
to the conductor through q little
sliding panel in the front door, the
idea being you don't open that door
and let in the cold air in Winter
or the hot air in Summer.
If you have dog, then you buy
a dog ticket for it. A child has
a special ticket, half fare. On q
20-groschen ticket you cannot trans
fer and the distance you travel varies
with the direction Of the street car
and whether or not the terminal
points of the zones coincide with the

kept for a few second-page
~ cable announcements and edi-
torial notices, the agreement
- signed a few days ago at
Buenos Aires, ending the Chaco war
fare, has merited little comment from
the press and from students of in
ternational affairs.
Perhaps the troubled situation of
the world at large, the hardly en-
couraging prospects for peace which
seem to prevail everywhere, have rele-
gated the good news from the Chaco
to a less conspicuous place than it
deserved. When another chapter of
the bloody Sino-Japanese conflict is
opening in the Orient, between care
fully worded diplomatic assurances
and peremptory military ultimatumS
which not always stop short of af-
fecting the interests of other world
powers in the Far East; when Musso-
Iini's legions are being hurriedly trans
ported to Africa to settle accounts"
with the Ethiopian ruler; when Hit
ler's reputation Of the Versailles
status-quo Is threatening the painful
efforts of Is years of European
diplomacy; when the most powerful
and influential nations are engaged
in an arms race without parallel in
history, the first step toward a set
tlement of the Chaco dispute may
appear rather insignificant.
Move Is Significant.
Then, too, Bolivia and Paraguay
are only small South American states
when compared with the major pow
ers in whose hands rests, not very
securely at the present moment, the
peace of mankind. Yet, In spite Of
size and of scope, in spite of the
relatively small region affected and
of the heavily clouded international
skies under which the announcement
has been made. the cessation of hos
tilitiess in the Chaco has far-reaching
significance, because of the terms in
which it has been agreed and the
innovations it may bring about in
the field of international law.
Apart from the physical factors
involved, the human lives and the
economic resources which will be
spared-and that, alone, is more than
sufficient to enhance the Importance
of the BuenoS Aires agreement-cer-
tain of the stipulations therein in
cluded open new and vast posi-
bilities for the advancement of law
and the peaceful settlement of differ
ences among nations.
In the first place, the two con-
tending parties reiterated at Buenos
Aires their adherence to the so-called
declaration OF August 3, 1882" and
made it a part of the preliminary
agreement which ended the armed
hostilities in the Chaco. That dec
laration, it may be recalled, was
signed by the diplomatic representa-
tives of nearly all the American re-
publics at Washington, at the invita-
ton of the then Secretary of State
Henry L. Stimson, and was an am
plification of what has been termed
the doctrine of "non-recognition of
territorial gains by force" first stated
by its author in reference to the
Far Eastern crisis.
Precedent Set.
In other words, both Bolivia and
Paraguay, upon signing the formula
agreed at Buenos Aires, have spe-
cifically and solemnly pledged them
selves not to recognize any terri
torial acquisition arising out of the
war which they have just stopped.

OPINION IS SOUGHT
ON ANTLRED RIDER
Difference Between Teach
ing and Advocating Soviet
Told Board.

An advisory opinion on the legis-
lative rider to the District bill, which
prohibits the payment of salaries to
ANY person teaching or advocating
communism" in the public schools
will be asked of Corporation Counsel
z. Barrett Prettyman by the Board OF
Education.
The question was presented to the
board yesterday afternoon by DR..
Frank w. Ballou, superintendent, who
described the provision as "a serious
matter requiring the full consideration
of the board"
Charles H. Houston urged the board
10 protest the provision before the bill
is signed by President Roosevelt on
the ground that it infringes upon in
tellectual freedom.
There is a difference" he said.
''between teaching and advocating
communism I have no objection to
prohibiting the advocating of com
munism, but as for teaching, ! feel
that it is much better to have child
taught effectively what communism
is than to have him get distorted
idea of that form of government.
Is SoHVOl'
after all communism is form OF
government as we'll as well-eStab-
lished school of economic and social
thought Teaching communism as
such is one thing; advocating COM
munism for the United States is far
different matter"
Houston Joined with DR.. Ballou to
point out that geography and history
text books treat of the subject in con-
nection with studies of Russia.
DR.. Hayden johnson, president, lik-
ened the rider to the Tennessee ban
on the teaching of evolution that re-
suited in the famous Scopes trial at
Dayton.
"I can't see any difference" DR..
johnson said. "in this act and the
Tennessee act. Suppose some teacher
Of governmental science explains to
his pupils just what communiStic
government is Then administrators
would have the right to withhold his
salary"
Mrs. Henry Grattan Doyle also
raised the question of how teacher
would answer a direct question about
Russia.
Questions to Be Drafted.
DR.. Ballou suggested that a series of
questions covering as many different
situations as possible under the ban
be drafted and submitted to the cor
poration counsel.
The proviSo was written into the
bill in conference and was accepted
by both the House and Senate.
The board voted to rename the old
Adams School, Fourteenth and @
streets, the John w. Ross School in
honor of former postmaster, presi-
dent of the Board of Education and
District Commissioner. The building.
recently used as an annex to the
administrative offices, was damaged

the idea Of having new legislation en-
acted by Congress. Nonresident
pupils, he said, cost the District about
