this city in memory OF InomaS
Jefferson.
The reporter asked Senator
Barkley if his committee was
ready to take UP the matter OF
the auditorium.
Senator Barkley's answer was
polite but firm, and q frantic note
was in his voice:
'NO, I haven't had time to
think Of anything like that. I've
been glued to the end Of this tele'
phone since Thursday. I'm
much more interested in the re-
lief Of the flood victims in my
State than such q thing as an
auditorium for Washington.
81 haven't had any sleep since
Thursday, and I'm going to give
all my attention to doing some
thing for the flood victims.
''If someone would propose an
auditorium to cover the Ohio
Valley I'd be interested right
now, otherwise I'm too busy"
Senator Barley had a right to
be upset. He was trying des'
perately to get some news Of his
mother, who lives in Paducah, KY
As this was being written a call
to the Senator's home at 31O2
Cleveland Ave. N. w. was an
swered by the harasSed Senator
who said that he still had no word
but that radio station WHAS was
sending out appeals for informa
ton as to her whereabouts ano
that a man on the way to Ken
tucky promised to look her up ano
wire him if he found her.

Listen, World!
By Elsie Robinson

and me and the kid. Not much
front page news about that. Yet
I wonder if those evening hours
aren't back of more American his
tory than any other part Of our
program.
We made Americans that way
once. Not by writing editorials at
them. Or getting up maSS-meet-
ings about them. Or organizing
government stunts for them. But
by sitting down at the table, when
they were little and fresh for the
mold, and playing games with
them. Giving them, not preach
ments, or pay-offs-but ourselves.
It was a bore, Of course. Had to
give up our own fun. Couldn't go
out to shows or bridge parties or
night clubs. Couldn't talk over
that business deal with Bill
or those new beauty treatments
with Mabel. Couldn't even let
go and sprawl, after our hard
days work. Had to sit, instead,
listening to the kids gabbling.
IDEALS
But out of that gabbling came
America. The ideals Of kind
ness and fair play that you can
never put over in any sermon, or
pound in from any lecture plat
form. Talking things over with
Dad and Nom. Getting their re-
action to Jimmy'S fight with
Freddy, or the fib SuSy told about
Rose. Drawing in closer together,
into family love, family loyalty.
Reaching up higher, toward other
loves and Notwithstanding, un-
consciously, how to play the
bigger game.
Getting ready to live-that's
what we did with those home
games, once, nightly in America.
Handing on-by SIMPLE, homely
words and gestures-the finest
vision the human spirit has ever
conceived.
What's happened to that vision
lately? Sometimes, watching the
unhappy young faces passing me
or the street, I wonder. What
has warped and wasted them so?
We've heard a lot of hifalutin'
theories - industrial, economic.
But maybe the reason is far
palmer than that.
Perhaps that vision has become
blurred because we oldSterS
haven't had time to bother with
it lately. Too busy with all our
own fun. our self-expreSsion and
oul keeping young too busy to
play marble games with the
youngsters any morel

Lucius never was elected alder

children never tasted the candy,
money for which they had
wheedled from their reluctant
mother. The gladiator had strut

last time. The rumble. was the
eruption Of Vesuvius!
A rain Of ashes began to pour
upon Pompeii. The terrified peo-
pie rushed to cover. Relentlessly
the downpour continued through
the day.
The more timid had but one
thought in their minds, that Of
fleeing. They dropped their tasks,
collected what valuables they
could carry and ran before the
storm.
The less fearful decided to stay
through and huddIed in their
homes, confident or, at least, hope
full that shelter provided the best
safety.
The 1000 who stayed were
wrong. The rain Of ashes was too
much for the roofs Of the houses.

The $4,000 who fled proved the
truth Of the saying that discretion
is the better part of valor. They
lived to tell the tale.

Within week after President Roosevelt and other

bill creating an auditorium commission Will have been
introduced and Senate committee will have conducted
hearings.
Such expedition is highly commendabe.
IF the pace can be maintained and the project COM
r1nnd at the same rate the inclement weather on In
aupuration Dav will have been blessing IN disguise.
The WASHINGTON Times, which for some time has been
urging that auditorium of sufficient size to meet ma
tonal needs be constructed here Is pleased that the
project is now taking definite form.
The Times has listed such an auditorium as one of
Washingtons Needs and it is glad to believe that it
has sowed the seed which is proving so fertile.
The commission which would be created under the
Robinson BILL upon which hearings will be held this
week. would be authorized to select site for the pro-
posed auditorium.
Such site has already been tentatively selected in
line with the proper development of the National
Capital.
The plans call for construction of the auditorium at
the end of East Capitol Street.
This site will undoubtedly receive the consideration
of the commission which Senator Robinson would create
Those who have been charged with the task of plan
ming the development Of the Capital feel that the audi
orm could best be constructed there and their words
and views will carry considerable weight with the
members Of the commission
That is as it should be.
BUT WE HOPE THAT THE COMMISSION WILL
ALSO GIVE APPRECIATIVE THOUGHT TO THE
FACT THAT THE AUDITORIUM PROJECT IS
LINKED BY THE CITY PLANNERS WITH THE
PROPOSAL TO CONSTRUCT HERE A HUGE STA

The stadium and auditorium should certainly go to-

for spectaces which best be accommodated indoors
The armory, lack Of which displays base ingratitude
to the citizen soldiers of the District of Columbia is
natural complement to the auditorium stadium project
1t is possible that the armory could be built into the
auditorium itself, thus providing continuing and use

The stadium could be put to excellent day in and

Lizards and Birds Can
Make Bodies Invisible

In Burma there is a brilliant liz
ard with a skin that almost rivals
the colors of the gorgeous king
fisher. The body is a glorious ul-
tramarine blue, with reddish hin
der parts, while from head to Shout
der there are broad white bands.
If he thinks he is not being watched
by an enemy, relates a writer in
london Tit-Bits Magazine, you see
him in his wonderful dress, but
startle him, and you see what a
quick-change artist can do.
He runs down the trunk of tree.
and the blue has disappeared. for
he is almost invisible against his
sombre background. He lands on
the ground, standing on bare earth.
and he is now clothed in a dull
brown coat which makes it difficult
to distinguish him. When he gains
confidence, he runs UP the tree
again; he is once more in the SUM-
shine among the green leaves, and
his glory returns. No matter where
he is, his coat will agree with his
surroundings.
Birds that nest on the ground
seem to know that if they remain
motionless they will be almost in
visible. The woodcock, as it sits
on its eggs laid among a mass Of
dead leaves, is passed unnoticed
by most Of us, but if the light falls
upon its big eye it resembles a bril-
liant black diamond, and for this
reason the bird will sit with it's body
fiat on the ground, and its eyes
almost closed.
The same applies to the nightjar.
AS it sits on its eggs laid on the
bare ground, its eyes appear to be
closed, but all the time it is really
watching through two narrow Sits at
the base of the eyelids.

Novel Eggs For
Hearty Breakfast Eaters

Nearly everyone knows someone
who likes Lamb chops and fried
potatoes or something like it for
breakfast. To some people this is
perfectly crazy but it does have its
good points and if you happen to
be one of those hearty breakfast
eaters, here is an egg recipe that
is sure to please. It is nicely sea-
soned and will just hit the spot,
especially for a late breakfast; or
an evening snack.
VENETIAN EGGS
1 Spanish onion
green pepper
2 stalks celery
Chop and cook slowly in 8 table
spoons of olive oil or butter for 5
minutes. Add / large can of to-
matoes, 1 teaspoon salt and if de-
sired, / bay leaf. Cook for 10 min
utes. Reduce heat to minimum.
Break in l egg for each person,
stir gently until egg is cooked and
serve at once on toast.

Contribution From East
India Combines Into
Tempting Dishes

There isn't country that hasn't
made it's contribution to the world
of cookery, no matter how small or
how great. Some prove to be very
popular and others not so popular,
according to the tastes of the gen.
eral public. One such example is
curry powder from East India.
There is probably no spice that
gives such aroma and goes into the
making of such fine highly season.
ed dishes. It's use, of course, is
varied according to the likes and
dislf&es of individuals but nothing
can disguise its unusual flavor.
Here is one recipe that really does
justice to curry powder and brings
East India right into our homes:
EAST INDIAN CURRIED
CHICKEN
l cup rice
stewed chicken
onion, sliced
" garlic Glove
" teaspoon ginger
u cup olive oil
liz Tablespoons curry powder
2 tablespoons flour
cup milk
cup chicken stock
" cup fresh grated cocoanut
Milk from cocoanut
Remove meat from chicken.
Steam the rice. In the meantime,
fry the onion, garlic and ginger in
the olive oil for about five minutes,
but do not brown. Add the curry
powder and flour. Blend well. Then
add gradually, while stirring, the
milk and the chicken stock. Cook
until slightly thickened. Add cocoa
nut and cocoanut milk. Keep sauce
hot in double boiler until the rice
is done. Make ring of the rice.
Put chicken inside the ring. Pass
sauce in gravy boat, followed by a
bowl of ground cocoanut and anoth-
er of ground nuts.
The cocoanut may be omitted al
thought it is always used in coun-
tries where curries originated.

England's Riviera

The English Riviera may be said
to include the coast towns of Ex-
mouth, Dawlish, Teignmouth, Paign-

and Torquay. It is the land which
gave birth to the Elizabethan sea-
dogs, Drake, Sir Walter Raleigh,
Hardy, Gilbert, Davis, Hawkins,
and it was from this coast that the
squadrons of the East India COM
pany set forth in 1902 to lay the

Such foods as macaroni, and
rice should be kept all the time in

action of fast bubbling is often
useful and also helps prevent rice
