mediately, as he is said to be heart

sion to select a site, arrive at the
cost figure and to decide how the
money is to be raised for the con-
struction.
During the discussion of the
bill before the House and Senate
committees on Public Buildings
and Public Grounds it was Sug.
geSted that the business men of
Washington be called upon to con-

tuition built with Government
funds and controlled entirely by
the Federal Government.

Senate Public Building and
Grounds Committee; Senator War

luton, the Secretary of the In
terror will supervise the running
of the auditorium after it is built.
The commission is ordered to
report back its findings to Con-
gress as promptly as possible and
with the full Administration back
ing given to this proposal it is
expected that the project will get

of this session.

PLAN T0AMEND
BILL FINALLY
REJECTED
Mrs. Norton Defends
Measure in House
District Day

In last-minute retraction. Rep
resentative Ambrose j. Kennedy
CDD of Maryland, today refused
to introduce an amendment to his
Red Rider" repeal bill which
would have prohibited the advo-
cacy of Communism in the Wash
ton public schools.
The Kennedy bill. providing re.
pealing the rider which prohibits
both the teaching and advocacy of
Communism by local school
teachers, was the first piece of Dis
trict legislation to be considered
in the House today on its first Dis
trict day of the current session.
Backed by Mrs. Norton
After a long conference with
Representative Mary T. Norton
3D. New Jersey, chairman of the
House District Committee. Ken
nedy announced he would not in.
troduce his amendment, which
leaves the bill as it was passed last
week by the Senate-repealing all
the features of the Red rider.
Kennedy had planned to intro
duce an amendment which would
have permitted the teaching of
communism, but provided that sal.
aries should not be paid to teach.
ers advocating communism or
other unAmerican doctrines or
treating of any such doctrine with
saVor or support" The amend.
ment also would have removed the
necessity for the affidavit now re.
qulred of teachers, in which they
swear that they neither taught nor
advocated communism.

Ken MURRAY
Says:

Those who say There amt no
justice" should certainly be sat
iSfied now, with President Roose-
velt's new plan to add six more
of those boys to the Supreme
Court We knew Franklin
would have to find a lot of
jobs for his recent supporters,
but we never suspected that so
many of them were judges.
Of course, it's easy to under
stand why Mr.. Roosevelt should
want to put in a few young iel,
lows with good eyeSight, to look
over the Constitution He
needs somebody who can read
between the lines.
Guess you really can't blame
the President for wanting a
change in the lineup in that
Supreme Court nine Those
old boys wouldn't play ball, so
now they can try tug-Of-war.
Wanted-Six ambitious young
lawyers who are willing to
listen to reason Graduates
from the Universities of Maine
and Vermont need not apply.

Dizzy From
NEW BLAST
BY HELEN ESSARY

Well anyhow let's thank
Heaven OUR Dictator has been
to Harvard!
The Washington times., 1937-02-08

Those poor old gentlemen up
on Capitol Hill must be dizzy from
the blast that has come from
1900 Pennsylvania Avenue since
Inauguration Day.
In a little more than two weeks
the President has suggested" that
they order the reorganization OF
government and make over the
courts.
Where will the blows fall next,
say the poor old dearS, while they
hook on the gas masks and look
for the nearest cyclone cellar.

pointees to the Supreme Court

youth and beauty beside the three
oldest of the "Old Men," IN

Practically all the intricacies
of court procedure are well over

portia when I see one. Florence
Allen. of the United States Cir
cult Court of Ohio, is the smarteSt
woman have ever heard talk out
loud in meeting.
I have listened to but one OF
her speeches. Her sincerity, her
self-confidence, the obvious knoWl'
edge that gave her the courage
of her remarks, made the polite
meanderings of the gentlemen
speakers on the program SOUND
by contrast like the rehearsal tor
a Sunday School play.
Judge Allen has in addition to
her qualifications for public Of

She had a thorough education III

Now It's time to tell a little
story about the lady visitor who
collected a good guide for her
tour Of the Department of Justice.
There really should be some
one to explain these murals to
visitors" said the lady to a hatless
gentleman who was passing seT-
eral of the more noticeable of the
WPA masterpieces.
The hatless gentleman said he
would help if he could. He con.
Quoted the visitor through several
corridors and special rooms, ex'
planning as he went.
"Now," said the lady, "if you
will show me an elevator, I'll
thank you. These Government
buildings are so badly planned
you never can find your way
around"
The gentleman thereupon led
the way to an elevator. Pressed
the button and waited to be sure
the elevator was on its way up.
"Who's he?" said the stranger
to the elevator boy when the door
had closed. HE seemed to know
about things"
"Oh. him? That's the Attorney
General"

portraits and furnishings. Mrs.
Miles White, jr., of Baltimore, one

didn't realize how vividly she was
able to revive the past until her
old Negro butler went to the
Johns Hopkins Hospital for a gen
eral examination.
Henry is the old Negro servant
of Southern romance. He bows
