VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
IN WELFARE WORK
Council of Social Agencies Hopes
at Least rs Will Aid in
Program.

The Council of Social Agencies
needs the services of 25 persons who
are willing to give part of their time
to the work of carrying forward the
varied program of aid to the under
privileged people of Washington.
Hundreds of volunteer workers al
ready are engaged in numerous prof.
ects, but there still are more jobs
than volunteers. officials said yeSter-
day. Some of the Jobs. such as cleri-
cal positions in the welfare agencies.
offer opportunity for experience that
would help to qualify one for regular
employment.
Many Of the girl volunteers work
with the Y. w. c, A., making con-
facts with strangers to Washington
who have applied to the "" for help
in finding place to live. Nearly
1000 men are giving their services
as Boy Scout leaders and advisers.
Nearly any sort of talent or ability
can be put to use in the work still
to be done, officials said. There is
particular need for some one to super
wise children on outings and in char
acter building classes and to lead
them In recreation activities.

HOUSING BILL HIT
BY j. s. CHAMBER
Desirabi|ity of interference
in Local Home Rule
Questioned.

By the Associated Press.
The revised Wagner housing bill
was sharply criticized yesterday by
the Chamber Of Commerce of the
United States.
George H. Davis, its president. said
in q statement that the bill raised
the question Of the desirability of
interference of the Federal Govern
ment in matters of community re-
sponsibility and local home rule"
II the Government subsidized pub
lie housing as permanent policy, he
said, it would inevitably have de-
moralizing effects upon soundly con-
ceived community efforts to rehabili-
tate and rebuild bhghted and slum
areas and to improve the conditions
Of destitute and seni-destitute people
Effects of Program.
1.-THE building of subsidized COM
petitive housing will have similar un-
fortunate effects upon soundly con-
celved industrial efforts to provide
priced and better housing" he
added
Davis struck at provisions OF the
bill which he said would give Fed
eral Housing Authority wide discre-
tion in defining low-rent housing and
in classifying low-income families for
which such housing might be pro-
yided by the Government
Such a broad definition" he said,
leaves to administrative decision the
extension Of Government housing to
persons in whose economic situation
there can be no excuse for subsidy
at public expense
Sees Private Work Delay.
Davis expressed the view that dis
cretlon allowed the Housing Authority,
plus the authority to advance grants
and loans to numerous public and pri-
vate agencies, would cause private
builders to delay loW-cost house con-
struction.
He said the Government could op-
crate IN "a legitimate field of as
sistance to local communities and to
public and private agencies in solv-
ing the problem of blighted and slum
areas by conducting technical and
economic research looking toward the
Improvement Of housing conditions.
The Wagner measure, recently re-
vamped to curtail Federal spending
for housing, is among the measures
on which the administration is seek
ing action at this session.

COMMITTEE PASSES
SEA SAFETY BILLS
Senate Unit Reports Two Meas

Passenger Lists.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Two bills to help make the sea safe
for travellers were approved yesterday
by the Senate Commerce Committee,
spurred by the burning Of the Ches-
speake Bay steamer City Of Balti-
more.
One of the bills would require the
filing, Of complete passenger lists. The
other would tighten construction re-
:quirements to make ships less liable
TO sink in minor collisions and make
.them more nearly f1reproof.
: 1t also would specify how cargoes,
such as grain, should be stored so that
:it would be less likely to shift, increase
.the fire drill requirements and make
inspections more rigid
: The passenger list measure would
require that complete list of the pas
:sengers carried be deposited ashore.
: Some of the requirements were
worked out as a result Of the extensive
investigations made after the MORO
sCastle and other ship disasters of a
syear or so ago.

H. NJ. Farwood's play. The Man

seems less amusing than the yer.

in turn, was less amusing than
the play itself. Robert Taylor Is
slightly miscast Is the young care
free Englishman and though the
woman's part has been changed to
make the haracter an American,
Jean Harlow, too, does not appear
at her best. Compensation for this
weakness is offered by the splendid
support from Reginald Owen, Una
O'Connor, E. E. Give, Forester
Harvey and Barnett Parker, who
portray British characters in the
accepted manner.
The story itself Is distinctly
British and may pass over the
heads Of some audiences, though
w. 8. Van Dykes direction does
much to give universal appeal to
most Of the comedy situations. The
new adaptation by Hugh Mills and
Ernest Vadja deviateS from the

punch to the situations, but moves
