CONFERENCES
BEGUN ON
BUDGET
D. c. Heads In Farley
With Chiefs Of
Departments

Conferences with heads Of vari.
Gus departments of the District
government, preparatory to draw.
ing up final recommendations for
the District 1898 budget, were
begun today by the Board Of Com
miSSioners.
The minor officials are being
called in one by one, in order that
amounts ear-marked for individual
departments may be settled salts
factorily before the Commission
ers present the final draft to the
Bureau of the Budget.
Estimates originally submitted
by the department heads, totaling
about $58,000,000 or nearly $18,-
100000 in excess Of the anticipated
revenue during the next fiscal
year, were given public hearings
last week, whereupon the work Of
pairing certain estimates was be-
lieved to have been decided upon.
In Farley Today
Those who conferred with the
Commissioners today are A. r. Nc
CONCEAL, plumbing inspector; E.
P. Brooke, superintendent Of the
District Building; Fred E. Allen,
tax assessor, and Geoffrev Thor
nett, secretary to the Commis-
SionerS.
Because of the fact the even
tual budget suggestions will prob
ably exceed local tax revenues, it
is predicted the Commissioners
may take the unprecedented ac-
tion of submitting two budgets,
one covering ordinary mainten-
ance and based upon the antici-
pated income, and the other Gov
ering expenditure of additional
revenue which must come either
through a Federal lump sum" ap-
preparation or increased taxes.
Sessions Are Secret
Although the conferences with
the department heads are execu-
tive sessions. it is believed the
first officials to be interviewed
are among those for whose de-
partmentS no increase has been
demanded.
This is true in the case Of
Daniel j. Donovan, District Bud
get Officer, who has been sitting
through the meetings.
Later, it was reported, the Com
missioners will take up the bud
get estimates of departments for
which larger amounts are desired
during the next fiscal year.

By Wednesday

Although the district Depart.

of F. Street, between Seventh and
Ninth Northwest, in two days, the
long-awaited event will be post.
poned for about a week or 10 days
to permit completion of street car
track repairs at Ninth and F
Streets.
This statement was issued today
by Capt. H. c. WhitehurSt, direc.
tor of highways, who revealed that
pouring of asphalt on the north
side of F Street, the last piece of
work necessary in connection with
the widening, will be accomplished
tomorrow or Wednesday.
Work Is Delayed
The repairs to the car tracks,
he said, are not involved with the
widening, but create such a traf-
fic problem that it was decided
to withhold. opening of the new
F Street until traffic could pro-
ceed unhindered.
The car track project, he said,
has been held up by a delay in
the shipment of material which
was scheduled to arrive here last
Saturday. 1t had not yet arrived
this morning, he declared.
The widening, for which a cam
paign of many months was waged
by The washington Times before
the project was started, involved
removal Of steps from the south
side of the old Patent Office
Building. The widened stretch
will provide two-way traffic on
F. Street, with a similar width OF
roadway on both sides of the
trolley line.
An innovation, expected to be
completed today, is new type OF
street car loading platform on F
Street just east of Ninth. The
platform is of the so-called mil,
waukee" type, and was recon-
mended for trial here by a com
mittee sent by the District Com
missionerS to study traffic control
in the Wisconsin city.
"Streamlined" Stop
Captain Whitehurst described
the platform as being stream,
lined" since it is very low and at
the approach end is wedged,
shaped. At the other end it is
hevelled to the street surface,
much like a ramp.

Smith, StengIe and
Campbell to Wage
Fight Over Post
By J. EARLE MOSER

DETROIT, Sept. II Smith.
Stengle or Campbell?
That question was predominant
here today as approximately 230
delegates gathered to begin what
is expected to prove the most
hectic convention in the history
of the American Federation Of
Government employees.
After a series of caucus meet
ings and lobby political deals"
that began last night and lasted
until the wee hours of this morn
ing, three outstanding candidates
for the presidential seat vacated
by E. Claude Babcock emerged,
strongly backed by as many fac
tionS.
Their power greatly reduced by
diSSenSion that has rocked the
organization in recent months,

during his tenure of office gath.
cred around the standard of Col.
Charles I. Stengle, a former
Representative from New York
whom Babcock appointed two
years ago to represent the A. F,
G. E. on Capitol Hill.
Two More Loom
At the same time. however.
two powerful competitors were
presented by field lodges Of the
organization who are determined
to wreSt control of the A. FIG. e,
from government employees sta
toned in the National Capital, and
to one of these the entire liberal
minority factions pledged its sup
port.
John r. w. Smith, of New
York, president of the War De.
partment Lodge No. 80, received
unusually strong backing in a
separate caucus of his own and
was said by observers here today
to be the greatest menace to
continued machine" control.
Together with liberals and field
backing, which includes the en-
tire New York delegation, Smiths
party claimed so votes surely,
with large additional number
expected when the electoral votes
are cast.
A powerful dark horse also
looms in James A. Campbell, a
national vice president put forth
by Cincinnati members and
backed by numerous field lodges.
1t was indicated, however, that
Campbell's candidacy is a move
to split what might have been
strong majority for Col. Stengle
and as the convention opened it
was forecast by informed mem
berS that in case of a drawn out
presidential election battle the
two field factions would join in
supporting Smith against the ad-
ministration choice.
BabcOck For Smith
Although he claimed more than
120 votes this morning, Colonel
Stengle's strength was not be-
lieved sufficient to Withstand a
combined field attack, particu.
larly in view of. a threat early
today by President Babcock that
he would throw his influence to
Smith.

circle that conditions underWelght.
You know that when you are
tired and below par your appetite
is caprlciouS and you eat less.
Consequently, you become thinner
and more easily fatigued, and
your nervous tension increases and
interfereS with sleep.
Exercise breaks this circle by
stimulating appetite, toning the
digestive system and nouriShing
the tissues. Adequate exercise,
rest, fresh air and sunshine bring
release from nerve tension, which
makes it possible for you to relax
and get your beauty sleep.
Think of exercise as q weight
normalizer, for, whether your
curves need restraint or encour-
agement, exercise works figure
magic. For example, an over
weight person, an underweight
and q normal weight may all take
the same exercise and-each given
her normal share of rest and
food-the fat person will lose in
weight. the thin one will soften
her angles, and the normal weight
will improve her figure.
If you are underweight. take
your exercises in small doses,
avoid strain and never continue
activity to the point Of fatigue.
OF course at the same time, you
must increase vnIlr caloric intake
above your requirement to pro-
vide nature with the material
for curves.
All figures benefit from ex-
ercise, whereas all types do not
benefit from diet. The results
are gradual but cumulative. and
while there are sudden changes
from bad measurements to per-
feet, you have it in your power
to evolve . progressively better
figure.

ASleep-dreaming! Perhaps a
dream that the girl in the picture
will tell as a joke when she wakenS.
Perhaps a dream that will puzzle
her, or leave her vaguely sad. Or
a dream that she will slight, even
though it may contain a hint that
would change her future plans.
Today, as centuries ago, people
pay serious attention to dreams.
Not superstitious or childish guess
work, but intelligent analysis Of
these curious mental viSitants.
Modern psychology says that the
dream is message from the un-
conscious to the conscious. And it
is in the unconscious that we pack
away all our secret wishes, our
halfhearted hopes, our meannesS,
jealousy, all the thoughts that will
not bear the light, thoughts that
we do not consciously admit we
ever had. The part of a dream
that we forget is the most impor-
tant, for we forget what We hate
to remember!
In dreams we escape from real
ity, from obstacles. Ever dream of
flying? That is a typical escape"
dream.
Another common experience is
to dream Of money. The meaning
depends on the dreamer's personal
history. It may represent love,
love that gives, since money is the
symbol of giving value.
But money is also a symbol for
dirt, filthy lucre." It may release
