AIDE IS GENIAL
PERSONALITY

Because he is unquestionably
one of the most popular workers
in his entire section, Sonny
Robinson, of the General Account
ing Office, probably takes more
kidding" than anybody in the
old Pension Office Building.
"Sonny's" verbal strafing usually
revolves around his nicknames,
given him by fellow workers be-
cause of his generally cherubic and
innocent manner, and the names
have stuck throughout two years
of efficient work for the Govern
ment. And because of his general
good nature and refusal to kid
back young Robinson's popu-
larlty continually scars.
PhiIadeIphian
Born in Philadelphia, Sonny
came to washington Is years ago
and matriculated at the Wood
ward School for Boys. He later
attended Lincoln Memorial Uni
verSity, where he studied chemistry
with the ambition of becoming a
soils chemist for the Geological
Survey.
Two years ago, however, the op-
portunity came to accept an ap-
pointment with G. A. O's expand
ing emergency force and he
promptly did so. He was assigned
to the receiving and computing
section of the records division, and
in addition to his nicknames, has
made a more important name for
himself as being "a bear for doing
plenty of work and doing it we'll" :"
Now living at Riverdale, Md. he
is studying law in the evenings,
after office hours, at Southeastern
University. and has changed his
career ambition from chemist to

HOUSE FR0WNS
ON MEMORIAL

Tuesday the House of Represen-
tatives will turn thumbs down on
the plan to build the Thomas JEFF
ferson Memorial in the Tidal
Basin, it appeared likely today.
A favorable report on the reso-
luton introduced by Representa-
tive Allen T. Treadway R.), Mas
sachuSetts, prohibiting the con-
Struction of the Memorial on this
site will be made to the House.
Testimony of Arno B. Cammerer
and John N. Nagle of the National
Parks Service forms the basis for
the promised action of the House
Library Committee. When they
appeared before the committee
they pointed out that an addi-
tional five or six millions of dol
lars would be necessary above the
100000 authorized by the House
to finish the project.
From another angle it also has
been indicated little hope is left
proponents for approval of the
plan as the supplemental estimate
of 100000 sent to Congress by
the President to begin work on
the project was not included in
the deficiency bill by the appropri-
alton committee.

And what of the United States
in this South American economic
revival? Captain Percival replied:
On my opinion, United States
business and commerce stand to
benefit more from the present
rising trend than they did from
the sO-called South American
boom back in the 1920's. This
time it isn't a boom. It's solid
recovery.
