WINTER CRUISES

It isn't so long ago, so you
should be able to remember when
the man who could take a winter
vacation was looked upon with
awe, envy and admiration by those
who never considered taking time
off for a rest in cold weather. But
today many of us manage some
how to take a winter vacation,
even if it is only for 10 days. Other
wise, how could cruise ships go
out week after week filled to over
flowing with happy passengers
bound for palm-fringed bathing
beaches?
A talk with transportation Off
cials reveals that some $4,000 va
cationists have been leaving New
York daily this winter, which is
about $4,000 more than 10 years
ago, when people of moderate
means didn't consider it quite the
thing to leave the Office or their
work during the busy winter sea-
son.
BY boat, bus, car, trailer, air,
plane and train thousands of peo-
pie have reached the goal of a
short respite from the storm AMI
stress of winter. During February
alone, ia cruises carried about
$4,000 persons to Florida. Ber-
muda, the West Indies, Mexico,
South America and the Mediter-
ranean. Only 18 of these cruises
were for long tours, with prices oo-
viously designed for people Of
The Washington times., 1937-03-15
Three Minute Journeys

The rest kept within the
usual vacation duration limits.
with a minimum price range Of
from five dollars to about 12 dol
lars per day.
Reports from busy companies
and from the aviation front tell
the same story. Air cruises from
Miami, not only to the West Indies
but to South America, are having
a busy season.
A journey by airplane means
that the winter vacationist, with
but a brief time at his disposal,
can go down to South America,
see Rio and cross over to the west
coast and visit Chile, with ample
time for sightseeing. And the op-
poSite side of the travel picture
finds bus tours to the southland,
even to Mexico City, reported
booked to capacity. Automobile
and trailer tourists are out in full
force, too, judging by news from
tourist camps and automobile
trails all over the sunny South,
from virginia Beach to Biscayne
Bay.
But don't think that all the win
ter vacationiSts think in terms Of
sun baths and palm trees. If they
did, how could one account for the
throngs at such places as Lake
Placid, Sun Valley, Montreal, Que
bee, New Hampshire and Yer
mont?

No Money For Welchers

HHE American people may we'll be grateful to Senator
l. Hiram johnson of California for having introduced
the Johnson Act and to the Congress for passing it, and
to the President for signing it.
This act has literally saved them MILLIONS Of dol
lars and as long as it stands will save them Millions
perhaps BILLIONS-more.
The johnson Act forbids any debt-defaultng nation
to borrow money here UNLESS AND UNTIL THE
DEFAULTER PAYS UP.
England cannot borrow from us.
France cannot.
Italy cannot.
Nor any of the half dozen smaller nations which,
like the larger have played Uncle Sam for sucker in
the past and which would like to do it again.
Finland is only postwar debtor that borrow
here for the simple that Finland is settling its
BILL That country is the exception that proves the rule
The latest attempt to dig into the American pocket
made by France-and most ingenious and inno-
cent-lookng attempt it
Had it gone through-had the Johnson Act not pre-
vented-Americans would be paying for future French
armament as they have paid in the past.
There better uses for American money than that
There are enough uses for American money here at
home.
One use that will strike all Americans as desir
able than investing in French defense is to invest in
AMERICAN defense.
But whatever uses American money is put to, it en-
phatcaly will not be shipped abroad to stay there for
the benefit of the quarreling and WEIGHING nations
of Europe.
Not while Senator Johnson law remains the books
and is enforced in letter and in spirit the American
people intend it to be enforced and INSIST THAT 1T
SHALL BE.

At long last a memorial to-
Thomas jefferson, in every way
worthy Of his name and fame, Is
soon to rise along the Potomac.
The approval of the commissions
plan by the President meant more
than the end Of the long neglect
of this illuStriouS task. 1t meant
that Mr.. Roosevelt had saved
George Washingron's plan for the
building in the District Of Colum-
bia of "The City Beautiful"
This plan, dating from 1892, is
the basis on which the plans OF
1901 were developed. And within
the bounds thus outlined the JET
ferson Memorial is to take its
rightful place in close proximity
to the Washington Monument and
the Lincoln Memorial.
Now that the construction Of the
jefferson Memorial is to start
comes the same sort Of criticism
from a small minority as was
heard when a commission decided
upon the form the Lincoln Me-
mortal was to take. But this Is
no new experience for Mr.. Roose-
welt, his predecessors in the presl-
dency or the other faithful guard
ians of the architectural princt-
pies that were the foundation OF
L'Enfant's plan which Washing
ton made his own.
FREQUENT BATTLES
These principles were restored
and expanded by the Senate OF the
United States with the support OF
President Theodore Roosevelt in
1901. But they have been under
frequent attack in the last century
by those who were either Ignorant
of Washington'S plan or out OF
sympathy with it.
For example, the defenders Of
this plan at both ends Of Consti-
tuition Avenue and in the several
States. can look back with salts
faction to some Of the things from
which they have saved the Federal
City.
In the words Of Mr.. Charles
Moore, the distinguished chairman
of the Commission of Fine Arts,
they have fought for the plan and
"have fought against and defeated
it's dietractors and opponents"
with satisfaction we look
back over those battles:
"FirSt-A road to Gettysburg in
place of the Lincoln Memorial,

only regret anyone has over the
latest trick of Senator Connally
is that Senator Ashurst wasn't IN
the chamber.
Senator Connally stands with
the opposition on the Presidents
court plan and Senator Ashurst
leads the proponents.
AS the Senate swung into action
Friday it got a surprise when Sen
ator Connally sent to the desk and
asked to be read a letter written by
Senator Ashurst to one Of his con.
StituentS. The letter was read with
out comment by anyone, but its
contents were good enough to
bring out chuckleS all over the
chamber. It said:
'YOur letter Of March s re-
