SELF-RELIANT CITIZENS HAVE
BECOME ODDITIES
(By BRUCE CATION

If the people of the United States could
learn little something from the sturdy
citizens of East Lampeter, Pa, the state OF
the republic would improve with consider
able speed.
For the people of East Lampeter have
made a strange, almost unprecedented re-
quest of the federal government. They
want it to stop trying to lend them money
for civic improvements.
Some little time ago the PWA set aside
$4,000 to build new consolidated school
house for the benefit of the children OF East
Lampeter and vicinity. 1t was to replace
several older school buildings, and it was
just the kind of project that SO out OF lOo
communities would accept with devout
thankfulness.
Now there happen to be $500 registered
TAXPAYERS in East Lampeter, and 1000 OF
them are of the Amish and Mennonite
faiths; and these faiths teach that it is
wrong to borrow money at interest.
So public mass meeting was held, and
a resolution was adopted stating that East
Lampeter already has plenty of schools
that the townspeople didn't care to go into
debt 10 build new one, and that Uncle
Sam would be doing everybody concerned
a favor if he would keep his money and
forget all about the school building he had
planned.
For several years now the federal gov
eminent has been pouring out funds to
states and cities; and this is the second
time. in all these years, that any group has
declined to take what was offered. The
other case involved a set of Menominee In
dams in Minnesota, who turned down a
government offer to build new road
across their reservation. AS spokesman
for Secretary Ickes remarks, Nobody else
has ever said anything but 'Gimmee, gim-
mee.'"
We have got so far from the old-fash-
toned virtues these days that the people
of East Lampeter look positively quaint.
What? These people actually refuse to go
into debt? They are willing to. get along
with what they have, instead OF replacing
1t WITH something new. iHSy ooh NV
they need the federal governments helE
in educating their children? What ails
them, anyway? go
They are sadly behind the times, obvl
ously. Getting into debt is fashionable, al
most unacceptable, these days. So is thu
practice of discarding old possessions, still
good for years of service, and replacing
them with new ones. And so, too, is thu
habit of demanding that Uncle Sam hell
you do what you used to do for yourself.
That we yield to these things without
struggle, and at the same time demand
that the federal government balance 1t
budget, dismantle it's growing bureaucracy
and cesae asking for extended powers
merely proves that we don't bother to b.
logical. IN
We could learn something from tn
Amishmen and the Mennonites of Eas
Lampeter-and from the Menominee In
dians. ....

The best his questionerS could

They would have had field day

THE orthodox point of view is
l. that a sitdown strike is a Sc

that it constitutes treSpaSs, and
that the foundations of our gov

Perkins cautiously remarked some

CONFEREES NEAR
D. c. BILL ACCORD
OltferenCeS on Supply
Measure Expected to
Be Adjusted Soon.
BY J. A. OLEARY,

After making rapid progress at their
first meeting this morning House and
Senate conferees on the 1898 District
appropriation bill went back into ses-
sion at l o'clock with a prospect OF
adjusting all differences later TODAY
or tomorrow.
The conference involved Senate
amendments which added sl,5OO,O0O
to the House total of s45.1l6,584
While the conferees will not disclose
decisions on specific items until a
complete agreement is reached, it is
believed considerable number of the
increases will be reduced, and some
others eliminated.
The action of the conferees will de-
termlne how much new revenue the
District must raise through the tax
BILL to be taken up in the Senate Dis
trict Committee Monday. As the sup
ply bill passed the House the local
deficit would have been $4,000 900.
With all Senate amendments counted.
the new revenue requirement became
$7.500,O0O.
The conferees agreement is ex-
pected to cut down the estimated
deficit to point below s7,00O,OOO.
Estimates vary widely as to what
the seven point tax bill as passed by
the House would raise, but there are
strong indications 1t would levy con-
siderably more than is needed if all
proposed new taxes are left un-
changed.

Point early today man Who was
about to die and an elderly
cyclist seeking relief from in
somnia engaged in an eerie discussion
OF life's responsibilities. the futility of
suicide and the capabilities of Heavy
weight Fighters Joe Louis and jim
Braddock.
Death closed the conversation after
half an hour and left the cyclist
leaning on the sea wall railing, gazing
Mortified at the body of the other
man half floating on the shallow water
OF the Potomac River only a few yards
offshore.
The meeting of the two men. both
veteran Government employees yet
strangers to each other, was as
strange as their conversation.
Hears Voice From River.
Slowly propelling his bicycle and
believing himself miles away from
any other human, Ernest c. Marlette,
1885 Eighteenth street, was rounding
the Point in his search for sleep when
he was startled to hear a voice ex-
claiming:
Il have been fooled! I thought the
water was deep here"
The moonlight revealed man
standing shoulder-deep in the river,
OH the tip of the point. Marlette
walked to the edge of the seaWall, and
the man who was about to die intro
duced himself as Samuel P. Herold,
a, OF 9l8 Seventh street northeast.
Il asked him what he was doing
out in the water" Marlette explained,
"and he said he was going to die.
Just then I saw an automobile ap-
preaching and told the man to wait
minute. I rushed over to the road
and told the motorist to speed for the
police, and I went back to the sea-
wall"
Herold remained standing in the
same spot, and Marlette renewed their
conversation.
Refuses to Listen to Pleas.
"He told me-" Marlette said, that
he had four children. and told him
how sad they would be if he killed
himself. l told him to come back to
shore and return to his wife and fam
lily because they needed him, but he
said he was determined to die.
L argued that killing himself would
not solve his problems, but he refused
to be swayed. began talking about
the Louis -Braddock prize fight in an
effort to arouse his interest and draw
him closer to shore.
Finally he seemed to lose interest
in me altogether and he began duck
ing his head under the water and
holding it there. Each time. he would
raise up strangling and coughing, but

PARIS, June 24-Camille Chau-

said. to refrain from asking the full
financial powers which Parliament re-
fused to give the previous ministry of
Leon Blum
Chautemps intends to ask for au-
thority to reduce governmental ex-

decree without waiting for parlia-
mentary approval, this informant
said, but he does not plan to demand
the virtual dictatorship over Freach
finances which Blum requested
He will not ask for decree powe.

The new premier emphasized, how
ever, that Frances financial prob
lems-Which caused the fall Of the
Leon Blum cabinet-must await the
arrival Monday of Georges Bonnet,
Ambassador to Washington, who is
the new finance minister.
Rene Brunei, undersecretary Of
state for finance, took over the office
on instructions from Bonnet and set
to work clearing the desks for his
new chiefs return. His first task
was to notify department heads of
their selection by Bonnet, who cabled
the choices before he sailed yester-
day from New York
