PARK CONVERSION
URGEDBY D|RKSEN
Use of Franklin Square as
Public Parking Lot to Be
Asked in Bill.

Representative Dirksen, Republican,
of Illinois, announced today he
planned to introduce a bill designed
to convert Franklin Park into the
first of a series Of proposed public
automobile parking lots.
Occupying one of the largest squares
in the District, bounded by Thirteenth,
Fourteenth, I and K streets, Dirksen
said the park could easily accommo-
date at least 1000 vehicles and thus
relieve some of the traffic congestion.
According to Dirksen, his bill will
specifically authorize transfer Of jul
risdiction over the park from the Ma
tional Capital Park Service to the
District Commissioners, who would be
authorized to turn it into a public
storage place for automobiles. 1t also
will direct that the parking fees be
fixed at an amount that will pay the
expenses of the operation of the
parking grounds. He does not believe
the fee should be more than 10 cents
o car per day.
fark Service opposes fldn.
Several months ago Dirksen sug-
geSted that Franklin Park, as well
as several other Government-owne
properties within the business section,
be converted into public parking lots.
The principal opposition to the plan
came from officials of the National
Capital Park Service.
Dirksen, however. said he made an
inspection of the park recently, and
decided it could be used to much
better advantage as parking place
for automobiles, since it IS now un-
slightly and Infested with undesir-
ables." Its location is such, he point
ed out, that as an automobile parking
site it could afford relief to the pres
ent parking situation in the congestec
area.
Might Extend Plan.
Dirksen believes if the plan works
out successfully at Franklin Park il
could be extended to other parks
within close range of the business
section, which are not now used eX-
tensively for the purpose for which
they were intended.
Some place has got to be provided
for parking automobiles" Dirkser
said, "and I think it can be done most
advantageously in some of these parks
in the downtown section which are
seldom used by the general public"
Latest reports from the Office Of the
National Capital Park Service re-
vealed that Franklin Park is slated
for rejuvenation under the park i'm
provement program made possible by
p. w. A. funds.

 FIRST BOOSTER
Gave Up Search for Gold Years Ago to Become
 HOmeSteader

Palmer, Alaska, May 2-CUP)- More than 20 years ago, J. J. Bugge laid aside his prospecting tools, gave up his quest for gold and took a homestead in the uninhabited Matanuska valley.
 He cleared the land, constructed 8 comfortable home and each year had little trouble in producing bountiful crops. He became a booster for the valley, never fail- ing to invite settlers.
 Now his faith in the valley ap- parently is justified. Last year he saw the arrival of hundreds of middle-western farmers, sent by the government to begin life again because their means of livelihood had failed them in the drouth- stricken middle west.
 Bugge predicts 6 successful fu- ture for the colonists. He says they are competent, determined people who will win out in their new sur- roundings. He admits some mis- takes have been made, but that they are being smoothed out rapidly. His once solitary house is located in the midst of the colony. He takes an active part in the settlers &C., tivities.

Italians Are Close
 To Their Last Goal
toontinued from Page D

United States, but 1t was not cer- tain of his whereabouts.
 Singing On Way
 With the Italian vanguard on the Addis Ababa Road, (via Army Field Wireless, Makfud) May D. May 2-(UP)-Though rain poured from leaden skies, and the road had deteriorated into rocky, boggy lane, Italy's soldiers pushed on to- ward Oddis Ababa today, singing the gay songs of their own sunny country.
 The farther south we go, the worse the roads become, and the heavier the intermittent rains, small cloudbursts, that are charac- teristic of the plateau climate. 1t is progressively hot. Torrents swelled by the rains race across the road at intervals.
 But the motorized columns push steadily on. Joyful at the approach of the climactic victory, the soldiers become road workers and go back to being soldiers again as the occas- ion requires.
 Drop Their Rifles
 At bad spots they put down their rifles, take pick or shovel, start a song and, slithering in pea soup mud, i'll holes with branches or rocks, build temporary bridges or divert entire streams from their course.
 In the evening, they utilize the enemy torrents by bathing. They have not been callousod by war. My wife and assistant correspond ent Eleanor Packard went for Q swim in Q torrent today (Friday) and, enjoying the water after hot day, remained lying in 1t until she realized that the hundreds of muddy soldiers on the banks were waiting until she emerged before they undresscd.
 Advance Is Steady
 The advance is steady and deli- berate as 1t has been ever since Marshal Pietro Badogilo took charge

nisnl as to the hour or day in which the city would fall.
 The extent to which the rains have delayed the advance was shown today when the government sent out a new victory mobiliza- ton" call to all fascists.
 Earlier in the week, the order was to prepare for Q call yesterday. To- day brought a substitute call for "the first days of May. Fascists re- ceived them in the mail this morn ing. One, to the juniors, said:
 "During the first days of the month of May Q mobilization as important as that of October (tne day before the war started) will oc- cur without previous arrangement: All members of fascist groups or combat must don their uniforms and meet within half an hour of the call at the square in front of their fascist headquarters. Owing to the innortAnce of the mobilization no excuse for absence will be valid. Ev- eryOne must leave work II tne mobilization occurs during working hoUEs."
 Ready For Excitement
 This means that all offices will be denuded when the sirens and church bells and factory whistle announce the fall of Addis Ababa.
 Heports were received today that Emperor Halle Selassie, members oi his family and some government officials had left by special tram for DIIbouti, French -Somaliland, on the coast. officials said they did not believe the report true; that they were confident the emperor wouio 70 westward.
 The government remained calm fin the certainty of victory and emphasized the possibility Of furtn- or delay in the city's occupation.
 But all over the country flags were being unfurled and buildings decorated in anticipation of the ail- nolincement that the climax Of the seven months war had been reached.
 People were restive as they wait cd to turn out into the streets TOT a celebration of victory.
 Capital Only Interest
 They paid little attention to the news from the eastern theater, where Gen. Rodolfo Grazianfs men are advancing on the Harar-Jipiga linc and the Addis Ababa-Djiboun railway---a center second only to the capital in importance.
 Authoritative dispatches from Italian eomaliland said that Graz
