Tighter Milk Rule
Sent to d. G. Cafes

Restaurant operators today were
given 80 days notice that milk
must be served to customers
thereafter in the original con-
tanners.
District health officials have
been seeking such a regulation for
seteral years on the ground that
milk Labeled out of large cans is
more likely to be exposed to germs
and to become sour. A fine Of not
more than $25 will be imposed for
violations Of the new regulation.

MRS. JENCKES
HIT IN ATTACK
ONPRETTYMAN

Directing a barrage of criticism
at Representative Virginia Jenckes
CD Indiana for her recent attack
on Corporation Counsel E. Barrett
Prettyman, members of the House
District Committee today branded
her charges as unfair and unwar-
ranted."
At a recent District Committee
meeting Mrs. Jenckes charged Mr..
Prettyman with "malfeasance" in
office because the District official
testified before a subcommittee
that he had not enforced the pres
ent small loan law which allows
/ per cent interest because he did
not think 1t reasonable or enforce
able from a practical standpoint.
The first member of the COM
mittee to rally to the defense OF
Mr.. Prettyman today was Repre-
sentative Vincent L. Palmlsano
Cd Of Maryland, chairman Of the
judiciary subcommittee that heard
Mr.. Prettyman's statement on
small loans and then reported a
new bill allowing 2 per cent.
Bills Are Delayed
Mr.. Palmisano, because of his
argument with Mrs. Jenckes, pre-
vented hearings on several bills
pending before the committee to-
day. He pointed out that Mrs.
Jenckes had also called attention
to the fact that District Commits
sioner Melvin C. Hazen was presi'
dent Of the Columbia Permanent
Building Association.
He recalled that Mrs. Jenckes
said that the position Of the
Commissioner places this institu'
ton and the office of the Com
missioners of the District in an
embarrassing position to sponsor
legislation and permit the Cor.
poration Counsel, Mr.. Prettyman,
to lobby for its passage"
Mr.. Palmisano explained that
he favored the new small loan
bill to relieve the poor man of
the loan sharks that border the
District" He said:
II regret the remarks made
1T the last hearing with refer
ence to the Corporation COun-
Gel and the Commissioners"
NORTON STAND
Representative Mary T. Norton
Cd of New Jersey, chairman of
the committee, then took up the
cudgels in defense of Mr.. Pretty
man. Mrs. Norton said:
"Since have been on this
committee the matter of small
loans has been coming up year
after year. We believed that
this bill was considered fair. I
say fair, although tho interest
rate seems like lot Of money.
Other bills have contained much
higher interest rates and we
thought this was reasonable.
"TherefOre I was very much
disturbed over the recall of this
bill. We presume that when a
subcommittee has held hearings
and the committee has reported
the bill that it is considered
reasonable legislation.
81 would consider it pre-
SumptuOus to recall a bill after
D subcommittee and a full COM
mittee had reported it. I trust
it will never happen again."
UNFAIR ATTACK"
Mrs. Norton then said:
II think it was most unfair
attack on the corporation cOun-
sci.
He comes here to give us ad-
vice and / believe that he has
always acted very fairly with
the committee. 1 have the ut
most confidence in him.
"The charges against Com.
missioner Hazen are ridiculous"
The only measure acted on to-
day was a resolution authorizing
use of public parks for the B. P.
O. E. convention here in August.

RUSSIAN ENVOY

|. Of SOV|ETS.

CHICAGO, June Is QN.S),
Ambassador Alexander A. Troya.
novsky, from the Soviet Union,
left an idyllic picture of Russia's
foreign policy with Chicago today.
Speaking to a crowd of $500
including faculty members and
students at the opening of a lee
ture series at the University of
Chicago, he said the Russian gov
eminent is based on a desire for
world peace-"A fraternity for all
peoples"
Mandel Hall was damned to
capacity for his talk and ampli-
fiers brought the words to addi-
tional hundreds outside.
He asserted that Russia has
no acquisitive desires or wishes
to force other countries into
adopting its method Of govern
ment, but added:
eve are not pacifistS at any
price and therefore cannot re-
duce out ornaments at this
time.
1--WE like to cherish the dream
Of q world Of free states, each
Self-determinant, each preserv.
ing its own structure, habits
and culture, but linked together
in cooperation for all peaceful
development.
"Our policy does not lead to
foreign conquest. We have all
the materials for . new social
society within our own boun-
darieS"

"Fair Celestial visitor, remain!

last night at the Sylvan Theater
and Celestial visitors in the form
of rain drops appeared and re.
manned long enough that most Of
the crowd left:
The Community Center Sym
phony Orchestra, under the direc,
ton Of Associate Conductor Sam
P. Ford had played only two mum.
bers when the threat of rain cut
the music short and the players
gave Moon Maiden" to diminish,
ing audience. -
The music Of the orchestra
was badly distorted by the sound
amplification system. A micro
phone was placed to the rear OF
the orchestra with the result that
the sounds of the BASES, wood
winds and violaS overpowered the
other sections with resultant
hurdy-gurdy effects.
So far, each outdoor concert
where amplification was used, has
shown the effects of poor han
ding. If amplification must be
used. why cannot the operators
go to one of the large movie
houses and get a few pointers on
how to place microphones and
how to mix the sound SO that
such glazing distortions will not
be made?
When the "Mikado" was given
recently, a microphone was placed
near the piano so that the sing
ers' voices were badly covered
Then the piano mike was cut Oft
entirely and the singers were
heard with but faint accompani
ment. But Of all SenselesS posi-
tions for a mike, a worse location
could hardly be found by the
rankest amateur than to place II
among the BASES and percusSions
especially when the first and sec
ond violin sections were notice
ably weak. If these operators
must play with their amplifica
ton systems, let them use phono
graph records when there is nc
other music being played, or sung,

Benjamin Godard's opera "Joce-

gotten operas whose names are
kept alive because one or two
songs have remained popular. The
"BerceuSe, from "Jocelyn" is q

In the story, two friends are
in flight, when, overtaken by
darkness, they decide to hide out
and rest under a shady nook. One
of the two could not sleep, but
sang softly this lullaby while the
other slept. The sleeper awoke
and told Of his dream, in which

singer, he repeated the song to

OF course dad had taken Peter
on his knee only last night and had
told him that "the other one" was
beautiful and that she would love
Peter very dearly and he knew that
Peter would love her because she
was as kind as could be, and very
fond of little boys.
Daddy certainly had been look
ing differently now for some time.
like all the time and he'd pick
Peter up and give him a big bear
hug for no reason at all. It must
be the other lady who was making
him so happy. OF course they
didn't have their Sundays together
| any more to go to the ball games
or swimming.
But dad had told him that in a
short time, the three of thcm-he
and Peter and "the ether one"
would all go together, and until
then, well, Peter wouldn't mind
missing q few Sunday so much II

summer, would be?
No, Peter didn't mind because he
knew how much daddy loved those
! Sundays together and II they
| couldn't have them for while now
it certainly couldn't be his fault.
OF course there was always AL to
fill In when dad wasn't there, but
lately AL hadn't been quite
as much fun as before. oh, she still
laughed a great deal and said
funny things; but sometimes your
laughter couldn't answer hers be-
cause when you looked at her eyes
didn't want to laugh.
Gee, 1t sure would seem strange
to be calling someone you'd never
even seen before by the name OF
mother as daddy had told him to
do.
Gosh, perhaps 1t wouldn't be sc
bad that daddy was going to marry
this lady after all. He'd have his
very own mother then like oil the
rest of the kids. He'd run right
away and tell dad that he was glad
about It after all.
/ As Peter approached the bis
shady veranda he could hear the
booming laugh of his father
, mingled with the rather shrill tones
Of q woman. Peter Immediately did
not like her laugh. It made him
feel as II someone had slipped ar
icicle down his back. That couldn''

like that. But they were talking

"Who, ALP" Peter heard his
father say in a surprised tone
"Why, Peter wouldn't be able te

him ever since Mary died. Besides
she's an excellent governess."
"Of course, darling, but really for
