Former Mayor Charles L. Smith Deplores Situation as evidenced by interest attempting to extend
 air routes to Orient from interior

Smith, former mayor, said re- gently.
 'The air route, as proposed, crosses Canada from Lethbridge, Alberta, to Whitehorse and then ce to Fairbanks and Nome.

Foreign ships can be built more cheaply and run

This refusal is as it should be.

Nowhere under the American flag those standards

Vacation at Home

vr0HE summer vacation season gets off to
or less official start with this holiday weekend.
Many Washingtonians will enter their summer
rest periods at once while others will postpone the
time-off session until little later in the year.
But it is appropriate at this time to direct the aten
ton of all to the fact that have right here fine
place for them to enjoy their vacations.
There isn't any necessity for taking lengthy trip
in order to indulge in the delights Of the usual summer
vacation
The immediate vicinity of the National Capital af
fords all of the advantages likely to be found anywhere
and those Washngtonians who have never taken their
vacation close to home would be well advised to give
this neighborhood try.
In the neighboring States of Maryland and Virginia
we have resorts that boast of the terrain of the
tains and the seashore
Rivers of great scenic beauty abound IN both the
nearby States, not to mention own Potomac neg
lected for many years. but at last coming into its own
playground.
Ali the sports that any resort could offer avail
able in our own parks and in the places close by
Thousands of folks from distant States and far
countries will be coming to Washington this summer
to get glimpse of the historical wealth Of Washington.
They will want to see the Capitol and the other
famous structures of the CITY,
It is a lamentabe fact that they will probably see
parts of Washington in their few days here that have
never been visited by Washngtonans who have lived
here most of their lives.
It might be good idea to include sightseeing tour
of your own city on your vacation program.
When you live in the midst of a vacation land there
doesn't seem to be much for going away to spend
a vacation
The delights of Washington during the summer sea-
son are many and varied.
Let's enjoy them this year.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1937-05-29

needs is system-that's all! Why
do you let a little thing like this
get you down."
For, alas, there never lived a
husband who didn't think that
the Chateau de Candle, or Buck
ingham Palace, could be spring
cleaned in an hour or so, if a
woman would only get things cor
ganized" and use a little brain
matter beforehand. What she
lacks is the ability to make all
the details coordinate.
1t seems that if you follow his
system" all you have to do is
to get the work "planned-out" and
then give orders. After that, you
can sit down at the piano and
merrily tinkle out MendelSSohn's
Spring Song" while the work
goes on as automatically and
smoothly as a RollS-Royce on a
new boulevard. Just a matter OF
"routine!"
Whoopee! Beds fall apart like
row of chorus girls doing a
marching number, and dust them
selves with a few high kicks.
Blankets and comforts Shimmy
themselves out onto the clotheSline
to be sun-kissed, and then return
at eventide to cuddle cozily in the
cedar chest for the summer.

} Certainly, they would not have

buildings If they had"
Perhaps that's all water over the
wheel, or, rather, concrete through
the mixer, but as each new build
ing is projected in Washington,
the problem of how workers are to
get to it, and get away from it, is
an always attendant headache.
Immediately pertinent is a pro-
posed new wing of the Post Office
Building along Pennsylvania
Avenue to Fourteenth Street. This
will demolish two fairly modern,
eight-story buildings, the Southern

boiling it down, we're still Graeco-
Roman, but we have to 60 under
ground to stay that way.
Seven stories is the height limit
for the new buildings. The
L'Enfant plan, with its radiating
avenues from the Capitol hub, pro-
vides, of course. for vistas and
open spaces. There's no chance
for beauty in architecture if you
jam buildings together. no matter
how effective the design Of each.
So, every impulsion, as long as
height is limited, is toward
greater and greater diffusion, at a
time when the greatest possible
concentration-plus parking space
is the imperative demand.
There was an amusing story
in the paper the other day about
d citizen getting lost in the stu
pendous Commerce Building. It
can easily happen, not only in this
but in several other buildings.
Messenger boys in Washington
get to be Daniel Boones who can
find their way readily through a
wilderness of tile and bronze and
mosaic. But let me warn you
from my own bitter experience
if you have business down there,
pick up an Indian guide and carry
a compass. 1t probably wouldn't
do to nick the murals and dadoes
with an axe. I find the best
thing to do is to leave a paper
trail which one can follow back.
I suspect that janitors sweep up
the bleached bones of many luck

they couldn't climb tree and get
their bearings.
SCATTERED
With all this, the magnificent
new buildings do not begin to take
care of all the governmental agen-
cieS. Rural Identification is away
up on Massachusetts, Avenue. The
Federal Deposit Insurance is in the
National Press Building. Railroad
Administration is on Fig h h
Street; the Reconstruction Fl
nance is in the old Commerce
Building; the Tennessee Valley
Authority is in an old wartime

They could, of course, build sky

more startling than the blend OF
ira ditional and ultra-modern
theories of Government, and per

But, all in all, there's a reason
why skyscrapers wouldn't do for
