), KAHN BUYERS
HEARBARKDULL

A continuous Government build.
ing program in Washington to
house the various Federal agencies
was forecast yesterday in an ad-
dress by Walter Barkdull, adver-
Using director of The Washington
Times, before almost 100 members
of the Buyers Club of S. Kann
Sons Company. The meeting, held
at the Harrington Hotel, was at
tended by store executives, includ-
ing B. B. Burgunder and Sol Kann.
The Times advertising head
pointed out that the Government
now owns 101 buildings in the
Capital City and is renting 103.
He added:
events which have been
transpiring for the past few
years have made Washington
the worlds capital"
Not only is this city making the
greatest proportionate gains in
population, Mr.. Barkdull said, but
it boasts the greatest per family
purchasing power of any major
city in the entire nation. Much
of this is due to the steady income
afforded by Uncle Sans pay roll
and also the fact that Washing
toms population is engaged to a
greater extent in head work" &C.
equations and less in the unskilled
and industrial trades than the
average American city.
The Importance of newspapers,
as the vital medium for selling
goods, was traced by Mr.. Bark
dull from the first newspaper ad-
Vertisement carried in the Boston
News Letter in 1704. The reason
that newspaper advertising is even
more important to local mer-
chants, according to the speaker,
Is because of the great influx OF
people to the Nations Capital,
which is constantly bringing new
residents, who have no store pref
erence-new people forming new
buying habits.

D. E. BOY HELD
INCAR DEATH

CRANSTON, R. l., June 26
0N.S0.-Jules Pothier, A., of
West Warwick, was struck and
killed today by an automobile,
police say, was driven by John
Raster, of Washington, D. c., a
Yale student driving to Providence
from New Haven, Conn.
Raster telephoned police of
Cranston and West Warwick that
he thought he struck a man near
Tiogue Lake. Police sent to the
scene found Pothier's body. Ras-
ter told police Pothier had ap-
peared "out of nowhere" at the
side of the road. Police said he
apparently had been on the way
to work.
No charges were brought
against Raster, who was held
pending investigation of the acct
dent.

The President was at the Jeffer-
son Island Club, maintained by
fellow Democrats, waiting this
morning to greet another hun.
dred-odd House and Senate mem
bers, who will constitute the sec.
ond days contingent of the 1887
party harmony meeting.
Between departure Of yester.
days group and arrival of today'S,
there was talk Of getting an ad-
journment by the first week in
August and of a compromise on
the court bill which would send
it to an early vote calling for
two additional Supreme Court
justices instead of six.
1t remained for IS Washington
newSpapermen waiting at the An
napolis dock to weigh the con-
flicting statements of those who
attended the Friday jamboree and
attempt to strike a balance.
Their Stories Don't Agree
The statements Of those who
came back from the first days
Notification at jefferson Island
did not agree altogether.
Most of them, including Sena.
tors opposed to salient features
of the Presidents legislative pro-
gram, insisted nobody had talked
seriously to Mr.. Roosevelt, who
sat out under the trees in Stacks
and open shirt. There was a def
mite agreement among the great
majority of those who, sunburned,
stepped off the Navy patrol boats
at Annapolis that jest, song and
banter were the order of Friday
on Jefferson Island.
Others members whispered q
movement was afoot to arrange
an adjournment date and final
agreement on the rest Of the leg
islative program.
Group Stays Overnight
If this effort was in the cards
it centered around the little group
who remained behind to spend the
night at the island club. Presi-
dent Roosevelt, most of his cabi-
net, Speaker Bankhead, House Ma.
jority Leader Rayburn, and few
others occupied the Limited num-
Der of beds. There were reports
the House leadership was working
hard for compromise on the court
issue and an early adjournment.
Five Navy patrol boats set the
first-day group back down at the
Naval Academy dock in jovjal
mood for the most part.
The big moment of the first as
sembly, said several Senators and
quite a few Representatives, was

SCOUTS FLOCK
T0CAP|TAL

Washington today became the
Scouting center Of the world as
the vanguard Of some $4,000 Boy
Scouts poured into the Capital
for the International Jamboree
which opens officially next week.
BY nightfall some 5000 Scouts
will be under canvas in the great
camp which extends on both sides
of the Potomac. Early arrivals
started at once to familiarize
themselves with the camp and
the Capital so they may play hosts
to the Scouts from more distant
points.
The first Scout special pulled
into Union Station at $50 this
morning, bearing excited youths
from West Virginia. They were
met by motor BUSES.
rs Trains Coming Today
During the day 26 trains will
arrive, each carrying delegations
of Scouts. Some of the more dis
tant troops arriving today are
from Oklahoma, Louisiana, Texas,
Illinois and Michigan.
Other troops will arrive from
Pennsylvania, New York, New
Jersey, Ohio and Maryland.
Two scouts already in the
camp crossed the Pacific Ocean
from New Zealand, and two
others made a 10,000-mile-hike
from their homes in Venezuela
to attend the Jamboree.
Headquarters Busting
Also due here today is Ezequel
Villacorta, representing the Boy
Scouts in the Philippine Islands.
He left Manila a week ago to-
day, crossing the Pacific by clip
per plane, and then flying across
the continent, just one week in
the air between the two capitals.
Tomorrow 80 Jamboree specials
will bring more thousands of
Scouts to the camp. On Monday
there will be IA special trains,
Tuesday will see 40 pull in and
Wednesday, the official opening
day, will see five trains arriving.
General headquarters of the
Jamboree were bustling with &C
tivity as the Scouts started arriv-
ing today. The scene was remi-

D. C.. HEADS SET
ON TAX TILT

Despite the efforts Of Senator
Elmer Thomas CD, of Oklahoma,
to reduce the local tax burden,
District officials will favor the
maximum proposed, instead of
pairing down to meet reductions in
the appropriation, it was revealed
today.
Major Daniel j. Donovan. Dis
trict auditor, announced the Dis
trict will need every cent" that
can be raised from the proposed
tax program to meet the antici-
pated deficit Of seven million dol
lars in the next fiscal year.
Senator Thomas, chairman Of
the Senate District Appropriations
subcommittee, had agreed. during
conference on the 1888 supply bill,
to recede on many of the Senate'S
increases in the appropriation
measure in the hope that the tax
program would be reduced. A to-
tai of 100000 was, therefore,
stricken from the bill as it came
out Of conference.
Major Donovan pointed out that
the omnibus tax bill, already
passed by the House and awaiting
Senate action, will not raise as
much as has been estimated, de-
claring that the District will be
lucky" if it can obtain $500, 900
from the gross receipts tax. It had
been estimated that this tax on
business would net 100000.
Because of Donovan's calcula-
tions, it appears that the Commits
sionerS will not seek to defeat the
20-cent increase in the tax on real
property, as voted by the House.
Hearings will begin Monday
morning before the Senate District
Committee on the tax bill.
