LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
eSGys Col. LindbeTgh
Will See Ghosts

To the Editor Of The Times:
Colonel Lindbergh has rented q
haunted house and he is going
to see ghosts and many Of them.
He will move from that house
in q hurry. and no one win ever
know why as he refused to talk.
The best place for him to live
these days is in an airplane. He
had the name Of Q Flying Fool.
He could get along very well with
his wife and son going from
place to place but he will never
be happy in any one abode, SO
don't expect him to settle down.
It is impossible. Seeing those
ghosts viii ruin his life. We have
our troubles, but what Is his
trouble? He should never have
left the old U. S. A. It Is one
wonderful place and we have no
ghosts, but Europe is full Of
them. MARY c. KNOX.

Alphabetical Project
WrecIing City's Perks

For decades our public parks
have stood as originally planned
by the founders Of our beautiful
city.
Today, for inScrutable reasons,
an alphabetical project has sud-
dently decided to wreck many
garden spots to later replace with
heaven knows what.
The charming little park at
Eighteenth and Streets, has
been destroyed completely and
quantities Of the most beautiful
lilac bushes consigned to the
dump. A desert Of dirt and debris
has been substituted for . pic
turesque, peaceful place.
In Lafayette Square. pebbled
paths have been replaced by
macadamized avenues, almost
broad enough for q race track.
Possibly the contractors respons-
ible for this job are not aware
that washington has a tropical
temperature during the summer.
How pleasant it viii be to sit
with our feet immersed in sizzling
concrete where formerly they
rested on pebbles or cool turf.
We are well aware that the
New Deal has attempted innumer.
able experiments" but Washing
tonians resent the altering and
wrecking Of parks. Aren't their
constructive ways to spend the
taxpayers money?

STENOGRAPHER
EXAM SET
FOR MAY
BY J. EARLE MOsER

Awaited BY THOUSANDS anxious
to become Government employees,
the Civil Service Commission is
now accepting applications for ex.
anainations for junior and senior
stenograhpers and typists.
Application blanks, which must
be filled out and turned in with
q notary's seal by May 4, were be-
ing issued today at the Comm1S.
Asion's room 103 to droves OF
wonderland q few men-who
have been prepping for the test
4 at local business schools. More
than $4,000 requests for notitica-
tion Of the exam are now on file,
Commission officials said today
and are being informed by mail.
The test. which Is to fill ap.
pointments In the departmental
service In the District Of Columbia
only, Is to renew the old stenog-
raphertypist register created In
November Of 1888, for which
more than $500 persons applied
throughout the land and tor
which more than 16,500 qualified
"a majority Of whom received
either Federal appointments or
the offer Of such.
In the opinion Of Civil Service
officials who adminStrate appor'
toned appointments and are In Q
position to review requests OF Var1.
Gus Government offices for needed
personnel, the stenog-typist exam
IS the outstanding road by which
to enter Uncle Sans employ Tor
the average person.
Commission officials point out
that the demand for short
hand and tipping Is invariabls In
IIsthe service, that every office set
up needs numerous such workers
ITO every expert" or especially
trained executive. During the
World War, one said today, two
exams we're held daily for
stenogs, and as soon as person
qualified an appointment was
forthcoming within the hour.
Men Wanted
Further, it is said, the oppor-
tunities for male stenographers
are most alluring. Federal execu-
tives are described as seeking
men able to "take'' 100 or more
words per minute for various rea-
sons. One is their durability
under overtime and overwork;
one is the absence Of the npStick,
p0wderpuff and incoming phone
call; q third is that men are
deemed by many officials as
more self reliant and able to
take the "bull by the horns"
when an emergency threatens
and no advice is available in the
next room.
The current test Is open to
citizens Of either sex in good
health who are. 18 but won't be
50 by May 4. Salaries are 1890
for juniors and $500 for seniors,
and Junior Stenogs must "knock
off" at least SO words per min
uite. Those who pass will have
their names placed on from one
to four registers, inclusive, de-
pending on their grades. Type
writer's, any make, and stands
must be furnished by competitors
and because Of the mob expected
to. take the test the commission
expects to hold it on several diff
ferent dates.

Battle Cards
Here Friday
Opener WITH MORTON
RESULTS IN EASY
VICTORY

Little is known here of the
strength of the Lamberton High
team which will test the Cardinals
in their second game of the season
at the Lincoln gym Friday night.
Lamberton's past history in
Redwood Falls encounters has
been good, however, the Lambs
upsetting the Cards in a sub-dis-
trist championship game a few
years ago and generally being
troublesome foes on other occas-
ions. Records of Lamberton
quints show they have been in the
finals at tournaments as frequen-
tly as any of the other district
teams.
The game will conclude the
years athletic program locally,
the last game before the holidays
being at Marshall Thursday night
next week.

Clothing Robbers
Sent To ST. Cloud

Marshall-Mike McFall and
Robert Mcdonald, the burglary
pair sentenced here Saturday for
robbing the Olson and Lowe store,
have been taken to st. Cloud.
McFall was sentenced to term
at hard labor not to exceed 20
years. Mcdonald was sentenced
to a term not to exceed 10 years.
The charge was grand larceny in
the first degree.
The two men pleaded guilty,
and their counsel, z. L. Begin,
said this is the only decent thing
they have done for some time,
and they should be given credit
for saving the county the expense
of trial before jury.
Said Mr.. Begin:
'These two men are living de-
monstrations of the fact that it is
in the large centers Of population
that one must look for gunmen,
gangsters and potential murderers
and not amongst the quiet, peace
full, law-abiding citizens who live
in rural communities"

BUS IS STONED,
4 ARE HELD

Two colored men and two colored
girls were being held at the Ninth
precinct today on charges of dis
orderly conduct. They were ar
rested after a group of colored per
sons had stoned a Capital Transit
bus on the Anacostia line last
night.
The bus, loaded with passengers,
was stoned on its inbound trip by
several colored men and women
who joined a group of colored
cadets in an attempt to attack the
bus driver who had put the cadets
off for scuffling in the moving
vehicle, police said.
Edward G. Brice, 81, of PIT
Fourteenth Pl. N. E., the bus
driver, told police the cadets, re-
turning from their drill at Grit
fifth Stadium, got into an argu-
ment and bumped the seat of the
driver. He ordered them off the
bus at Thirteenth and D SITS. N. E.
On the return trip. Brice told
police, the cadets were waiting
with several others, and tossed
stones at the bus as it passed
them. Several windows we're bro
ken, but no one was hurt.

MORE DISTANT
COTTON EASES

NEW YORK, May % G.N.SD.
Cotton futures continued mixed,
with further short covering Sus-
tanning the old crop months at
about steady levels, while light
liquidation caused minor losses in
the distant deliveries. Trading
was in small volume.
There was further liquidation of
May by pool brokers at unchanged
levels, as the Government moved
to rid itself of it's holdings prior to
the contracts going off the board
at noon today. Brokers with Japa-
nese connections sold some o.
tober, and the South and locals
contributed moderate quantities of
the staple. Buying was coming
largely from the trade, the Cont
nent, and Liverpool.
Liverpool cables turned irregu-
lar, tending to check buying in the
domestic market. The New orleans
report on crop progress indicates
that conditions in various parts
of the belt vary considerably. In
some sections of the central belt
good progress is reported. The
East is still in need of moisture.
Towards noon the market re-
manned quiet. May was quoted at
1852. unchanged; July 11.38, up 2;
october 1899, off 2, and December
1898, unchanged.
