her daughter good husband when

An explanation of District smoke
laws and their enforcement was given
the Georgetown Citizens Association
by H. K. Kugel, District smoke en-
gineer, last night at meeting in the
st. Johns parish hall.
Smoke cannot be completely abol-
ished with present-day equipment,
Kugel pointed out, but it can be min
imized. Under present regulations.
public buildings are required to install
mechanically controlled heaters, such
as gas, coal or oil, whereas private

ed as violators, are required to burn
hard coal or install mechanical con-
troll of the fuel

how examines all architects plans for
proposed buildings and in many cases
caves builders money by calling atten-
Gon to errors in planning before con-
otruction has started, Kugel stated.

By the Associated Press.
Forty years ago, Willis Van De.
vanter came out of the Northwest with
q brace of hunting guns and sound
legal background in public lands and
water rights.
Arduous service in the Republican
party and energetic years as lawyer
carried him to the Supreme Court at
50. His trusty guns took him duck
hunting last season to the shores OF
the Potomac.
Booming away at the canvaSbacks,
he was interrupted by game warden
demanding sight of ST hunting Ii
cense stamp. Admitting he had none,
the chagrined justice pleaded ignor-
ance of the law.
His companion, Rev. ze Barney
Phillips, chaplain of the Senate, re-
vealed the identity of the stampleSs
Nimrod and the warden rode off with
a chuckle and a judicial promise to
get stamp.
Hunched on the bench in his SIPS
silk robe, forefinger pointed ceiling
ward, Van Devanter fires searching
questions at the procession of counsel
before the court.
To onlookers he is sad-faced, high
ly articulate man of deferential dignity
and patience who sits on the right OF
Chief Justice Hughes.
Four Republican Presidents have
appointed him to high office:
Harrison made him territorial JUS
tice at 80, Mckinley named him an
Assistant Attorney General, Theodore
Roosevelt promoted him to Federal
circuit judgeship and Taft nominated
him to the Supreme Court.
On the subject of impending re-
tirement, Van Devanter said on his last
birthday anniversary:
I'm not saying I will and I'm not
saving I won't. When one gets along
in years as am, of course. anything
can happen"
He has voted against all major New
Deal court cases except T. v. A.

DANIEL BooNE'S BIRTHPLACE

North CarolinianS will be interested in learning
that the State of Pennsylvania has recently made
an appropriation for the purchase and restoration
as a national shrine of the two-hundrcd-ye ar-old
farmhouse in which Daniel Boone was born. The
red stone structure of historic interest lies about
three miles off the main highway from Reading to
Philadelphia a short distance from the town OF
Reading and an hours drive by motor from Valley
Forge State Park.
Daniel Boones grandfather pioneer set
tier in the region, having located ma 25O-acre
tract in settlement of Quakers IN l7lS. The
farm was later increased to 400 acres and the
present house built by Squire Boone, Daniels IA
Their and man of advanced learning for his day
and place There the great pioneer and scout was
born on November 2, 1884 But by the summer
of 1850 the Boones decided that the landscape In
Pennsylvania getting too crowded and etfetc,
so they packed their goods and chattels and moved
OF North Carolina.
From here at the age of 33 Daniel Boone set
forth as leader of an exploring party into the
little known territory beyond hte Alleghanies-Wes-
tern Virginia or Kentucky as that region was
called From then on till his death in Missouri as
a broken and disappointed old man of 81, Daniel
Boone's life became not only history but tale of
absorbing interest which still thrills each genera
ton of American schoolbOys as it comes along.

HEAR THOSE STEAMBOATS, BLOW

Engineers familiar with such matters can't and
don't try very hard to repress smile at the sug-
gestion that the Yadkin river or its continuance,
the Pee Dee is navigable in any sense of the term
If either is, why, of course the Federal Power
Commission would have jurisdiction over the Caro-
lima Aluminium company's proposed hydroelectric
dam at Tuckertown, and the Aluminium company
has said that if the FPC came into the picture 1t
would fade out.
How ridiculous is the contention that the con-
struction at Tuckertown would affect the naVlga-
bility of the Pee Dee was brought out by Engineer
Johnson OF the North Carolina Department OF Con-
seryation The dam would be no single barrier on
n stream that otherwise would flow uninterrupted
" from its source to its mouth but would be built
between two existing dams, one owned by the Alu-
minum company and the other by the Carolina
Power and Light company.
However, the federal government and Its Stooge
power commission are not above taking palpaby
absurd position with regard to navigability If 1t
prevents the construction of private power plants
IVA believe it or not, was recommended and be-
gun in the name of navigation and flood control.
Ultimately, some $500 100000 is to be spent for
eleven dams in that development, ostensibly for
navigation and flood control Yet army engineers
estimated that navigation could be achieved at a
cost of less than SIS 100000, whereas the annual
loss from floods on the Tennessee was put at less
than a million dollars. But IVA has never aban-
doned its pretense of spending half billion dol
lars for navigation and flood control. ~ harlotte

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
OLD SANTA COMES TO GREENBELT

Carefully selected families moving into
Greenbelt with enthusiasm that is fully justified
They have good reason to consider themselves for
tunate For the Farm Security administration is
making available to them comfortable homes and
apartments in pleasant rural surroundings at rem
tails that probably cannot be duplicated for similar
accommodations anywhere.
To the families that will be granted the privilege
of living in Greenbelt it will doubtless seem like
dream village Just now it needs lot of paint
and plantinq to bring out its best qualities. And
IFS fIatroofed box-like row houses constructed of
cinder block. will never be artistic But these are
mere details. The community is planned with eX-
ceIlent taste Its dwellings seem to be well con-
structed And the broad lawns trees, the extensive
recreation facilities in the surrounding "greenbet'
the quiet atmosphere, ETC., make it truly model
community.
If that were the only aspect of Greenbelt that
the public is called upon to consider it would be
a delight to every one. But only SS5 families will
be housed there. To make this treat possible for a
relatively few individuals an extra burden will be
imposed upon millions of taxpayers. For Greenbelt
is virtually gift from the government to those
who will inhabit it.
Nor is this special privilege reserved for those
most in need of better housing. Families not
eligible TO live at GreenOelt unless lney earn from
81 900 to $4,000 per year, have steady employ
ment a good credit rating, yearning for COM
munty life and no more than four children. 1t Of
fers rare advantages-7-room houses at SAL per
month for example--to handful of middle-clasS
families Subsidies begin at a point in the salary
scale where many housing authorities believe they
should end.
Under this sort of policy there is no chance of
repaying the taxpayers money that has been spent
on the project The FSA naivey reports that reve-
nues to be collected from Greenbelt will produce
a surplus of approximately 100000 per year, which
can be used to repay the federal government for
its investment in the property" At that rate it
will require 237 years to repay the investment of
S14.227 900. without one cent of interest in the
meantime.
Substantial reductions in this total cost are made
in the calculations of the FSA. Use Of relief labor
at Greenbelt it says, resulted in extraordinary
costs amounting to $4.9O2,O 900. That seems to be
a rather arbitrary conclusion, but even with this
item and the price of land outside the towns elm
mated the expense account runs to SS,39S,OOO
The contemplated return will be substantially less
than per cent on this investment while the treas
ury is paying not much less than 3 per cent for
the borrowed money spent at Observation-Disclosures
ingtOn Post.

THE PROFESSION OF BUNK
By WICKES WAMBOLDT

ity. II is actually diStrcSsful to
persons who want the political
truth TO witness the widespread
practice of dishing up the widest,
rankcst sort Of baldcrdNSh and
passing it out, with Shrcwd imita-
ton of earnest sincerity, for the
public to swallow.
As things are now, the voter
virtually wastes his time when he
listens to political propaganda,
for fact is so mixed with fiction,
and truth with error, that he
knows no more than he knew be-
fore.
When it is al summed up, there
is usually just one thing the aver
age voter can do: He can help
elect men in whose judgment and
integrity he has confidence and
leave the affairs of government
to them. And that. by the way,
was the intention of the found
crs of our government.
Note: The word "buncombc, y
from which the word bunk" IS
derived, came to have its present
meaning because Of a speech
made by politician -- one Felix
Walker Walker, a member Of the
18th Congress, lSl9-2l, repre-
scented a district in North Caro-
lima i'm which was situated the
county of Buncombe. While Wal
kcr was speaking to a certain
question, the house became impa-
ticnt for a vote on the matter.
But Walker insisted on finishing
his speech. declaring that the
people of his district expected it
and that he was bound to make
Il speech for Buncombc"
Thus "buncombe" has come to
be defined by Webst2r'S diction-
airy as: "Spccchmaking to please
constituents, or gain applause
anything said, written, or done
for mere show; insiICere public
action or speech; hence, nonsense;
rot "

tensions, but often - very often
- they set out with the delibcr-
ate intention of misleading their
hearers and readers. Often things
are stated as facts which are not
facts, while facts are purpOSely
twisted and distorted out of all
resemblance to themselves. Proph-
ecieS are made with impressive
solemnity which the prophets
themselves do not believe, but
which are meant to deceive. Un-
founded, vicious attacks are made
on everything-no matter how
worthy - which the opposition
does or has done.
The political policy of this ma
ton is such that one has no as
surance whatever that any politi-
cal statement has a grain of truth
in it, or that the maker of the
statement himself believes ii has
a grain of truth in it.
Some politicians are honorable
and sincere, but the overwhelm-
ing majority of them are tainted
by the political custom of being
reckless with the truth and OF
placing party loyalty above moral

THE NEW De AL
IN WASHIN
.RY RODNEY BUTCHER
BY RODNEY BUTCHER
NEA Service Staff Correspondent

WTASHINGTON-F. D. r. and
" his administration are trying
TO pick their way carefully
through an assortment Of Situa-
tons which. there is good reason
to believe, finds the President al
most as confused about the future
as the next fellow.
The future seems a bit muggier
than usual, even TO the most eX-
perienced SoothSayerS, and one
observes a tendency here toward
resort to contemplation and
prayer rather than glittering gen.
eralitieS and invectivc.
AS to the international situation:
Having abandoned isolation and
stuck the national neck out into
the Pacific, the administration
shares the general wonderment
over the question where we go
from there.
AS to the business situation:
The acceleration OF recovery mas
temporarily stopped and no one
knows just when it will be re-
sumed.
AS TO the political situation: 1t
is far from certain whether the
forthcoming session of Congress
will see some Snappy action on the
administration program or devel-
CD into a general dilatory row
over foreign policy, the Khan and
other issues.
Insiders know now that Roose-
velts Chicago quarantine speech
was definitely timed not only
for the League of Nations de-
alterations on the Japanese-Chi-
nese warfare, but also for the
period when England and France
were bringing heavy pressure on
Italy to get her troops out OF
Spain. But what the early effect
and the, long-run consequences
wiz be is as obscure as ever.

In the back Of the Presidents
mind, he has told intimates, is
the fear that if the "warliEe ma
tons" are permitted to sweep on
the time will come when the other
nations of the world will have
magnificent armies, navieS and
air fleets and the United States
will have nearly all the worlds
gold. That prospect, rs well as
the threat of rampant faSciSm,
bothers him.
Among confusing factors OH
the political front, especially
important if the international sit
uation is going to overShadow do
mestic considerations, is the fact
that many of RooSevelt's most
persistent critics have been cheer
ing loudly over his new stand.
There is a possibility OF a re-
scrambling of battle lines in
Washington, since such anti-ad-
ministration StalwartS of the last
session as Borah Of Idaho, john
son of California, Wheeler OF Mon
tana and other far-western sena-
tors are likely to 60 along in any
administration gestures against
Japan.
In the cast conservative forces
are largely pro-English. And Jews
everywhere, although many may
have been disturbed by the Black
Khan incident, presumably will
support any attitude which car
irieS a frown at Hitler's Germany.
! All these new factors are of I'M
certain weight-as uncertain to-
day as the strength of the die

ment which will start shooting al
