HEARING SOON
ON POTOMAC
FLOODS

Representative Jennings Ran
dolph Cd, West Virginia, mem
ber Of the House District Commit
tee, revealed today that hearing
will be held within the next ten
days under direction of Lieut.. w.
j. MatteSon, District Engineer of
the War Department on flood con-
troll for the immediate vicinity of
Washington.
This will be last of a series Of
hearings that have been conducted
during the summer on conditions
along the Potomac River.
Representative Randolph con.
ferred with Lieutenant Matteson
yesterday in an effort to bring
prompt attention to the problem
which directly affects his home
district as we'll as Washington.
The West Virginia Representative
attended the hearing held in Paw
Paw, w. Va, several weeks ago
where it was testified that in that
little community the March floods
did $600,0 in damage. Similar
stories were told at the hearings
at Cumberland, Md; Petersburgh,
w. Va; Frederick, Md, and Luke.
Md
Lieutenant Matteson informed
Mr.. Randolph that test borings
and actual ground survey work
will be started in a few days at
the proposed site for the $780,
COO dam, three and one-half miles
from Piedmont, w. Va. 1t is pro-
posed to place the dam on the
Savage River at this point to con-
troll it's outlet into the Potomac.
Representative Randolph said:
IL am very well satisfied
with the progress made on this
project as reported by Lieu
tenant MattesOn. From the tes-
timOny at the various hearings
it appears urgent that some
thing be done to control this
situation.
"The proposed dam near
Piedmont should help control
the flow of the river so that the
danger of floods could be elimi-
mated and a steady flow of
water guaranteed in the POtO-
mac during the summer. This
will help immeasurably in indus
trial expansion and 1 am look
ing forward to a prompt report
from the engineers office so the
necessary legislation can be car
ried through Congress as soon
as possible"

UPHELD
BY PERGLER

Speaking at a luncheon meet
ing of the Lions Club at Sholl's
Cafe yesterday, DR.. Charles
Pergler, dean of National Uni
versity Law School, attacked for
eign critics of American news
papers who blame the American
press for fostering an exorbitant
amount of crime news.
DR.. Pergler said he believed
from his observation that there
was more space proportionately
devoted to crime news both from
American and foreign countries
included in European newspaper
columns than in United States
dailies. He termed the European
press as consisting for the most
part of political party organs
while only in this country was the
true newspaper to be found.
AS an example of superior
American newspaper work, DR..
Pergler cited the Spanish civil
war expressing the opinion that
people here are much better in
formed as to what is really hap
pening in Spain than are the peo-
pie of Europe.

LIFE.
SAVED BY BOY

The heroiSm of 11-year-old Rob-
ert Prender probably saved the
life of his 5-year-old brother when
he Snatched the little, fellow
screaming and with 10 hes
aflame, from a pile of burning
leaves here yesterday.
Donald, the younger boy, was
raking leaves into the burning pile
in front of his home at 1885 Perry
st. N. E., while his mother, Mrs.
George Prender, was inside the
house, according to the proud ex-
planation Of June, 14-year-old SIS
ter of the two boys. Robert heard
his brother scream, and, running
outside, found Donald with his
clothing in flames.
Grabbing handfulS of loose
earth, Robert rubbed them into
the little boys clothing, extin-
gushing the flames. Then he car
ried his brother into the house.
A physician later treated Donald
for burns on his legs.
Robert is back at his classes
in Mt. Rainier School today as
though nothing ha dhappened.
But Sister June is bursting with
pride.

Merit system methods must be

the National League of Women
Voters urged today as it convened
for the purpose of forming 1887
legislative program.
The league, which has contin,
uously demanded elimination OF
patronage selection of Federal
Government workers. said pro-
vision for sound personnel systems
must be adopted by States to pre-
vent sabotaging Of the security
act by patronage seekers.
The leagues board of directors
declared:
until the States do act in
behalf of qualified personnel,
the administrative practices are
weakened, and the effectiveness
of the act is retarded.
"Much criticism has been lev
eled at the way the social Sc.
curity program has been admin
iStered in some of the States,
because employees have been
chosen with complete disregard
to training and ability for the
task required. Already leagues
of women voters in many
States, including Indiana, Illi-

souri,, California. Massachusetts,.
Michigan and Minnesota have
taken a leading part in working
for adoption of special merit
provisions in their State social
