Congress Kills School Gardens,
Affecting @ $4,000 Children Here

A l0-cent putt-putt boat and some
rubber balloons may be responsible
for discontinuance Of 35-year-old in
stitution, affecting $4,000 Washing
ton school children-the school gar
dens.
The schools and Budget Bureau
asked for $1,000 for rudimentary SCI
ence, which includes. among a num-
Der Of things, the garden instruction.
However, the House Subcommittee on
Appropriations, reporting to the House,
cited the toy vessel and the balloons
in recommending that the item be
postponed indefinitely.
The gardens were begun in 1902
and have been in continuous opera
ton since, an investigation reveals.
There are now about 40, ranging from
the large one of 8,308 square feet at
the Buchanan School to the three
small plots Of 5 by II feet at the
Ketcham School, where the children
grow radishes, onions, beans and flow-
ers, as well as study plant life.
$4,000 Children Affected.
At present, according to Miss Esther
Scott in charge Of elementary science
in the schools, there are about 10000
white children and 5000 colored boys
and girls receiving this instruction at

GENERALIZATION
FEARED BY GEORGE
Senator Warns Doctrine of
Division of Political
Powers Is Vital.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MOULTRIE, Ga, April 26.-United
States Senator Walter George said to-
day: "The doctrine of division and
separation of political powers whether
in State or National Government, is
vitality necessary to the preservation
Of human liberty"
The senior Georgia Senator, ad-
dressing a Confederate memorial day
audience, declared:
I'VE will do wrong if We do not
uphold the Executive In the exercise
of every power given him by the peo-
pie; We will do wrong if we do not
uphold the legislative branch of the
Government in the exercise of every
power which We have given it, and
we will do an equal wrong and the
consequences will be irreparable if we
do not uphold the judicial branch in
the rightful exercise Of every power
which We have bestowed upon it,
George, who is identified with the
Senate group opposing President
Roosevelts court reorganization plan,
did not discuss the topic directly.
AS for Capitalization OF Govern
ment, he reminded his audience
Liberty of the individual and free
dom Of the common man depend now
as ever upon local self-government.
It is difficult to realize what
comparatively centralized Govern
ment would mean. In all Of the vital
concerns Of the citizen it would be
Washington, not your county govern
ment and not your State capitol, that
would have the authority to speak"

measure were resigned to its enact
ment and had decided not to spend
any more money fighting it.
The original draft of the law was
written by counsel for the United
Mine Workers and, although as en-
acted it contained no labor provisions
beyond declaration Of policy in favor
Of collective bargaining the union still
Is strongly in favor Of the legislation.
Spokesman for the miners contend
their union Is strong enough to enforce
their wage demands as long as the
producers are prevented by law from
indulging in disastrous "price-cutting."
Labor charges constitute approx
mately IS per cent Of the cost of pro-
ducing coal and when prices are
slashed about the only retrenchment
open to the operators is through wage
reductions.
In addition to the revised labor pro-
visions, the new law differs in several
respects from the original act. 1t pro-
vides for seven instead of five 100000
a-year members of the commission
and places the price-flxing power
directly in the commissions hands.
Twenty-three district price fixing
boards will propose minimum prices
where formerly they established them
subject to review by the commission
The Senate substituted tax of l
cent pn for u Of per cent levy
designed to raise funds to administer
the act The invalidated law pre-
scribed tax Of 1l2 per cent for that
purpose.
Proponents of the Senate change
said it would provide approximately
the same revenue as the one-haf per
cent levy-about S4,000,00O annually
and would not fluctuate with the price
OF coal.

proved because Of the example set
by the school," she said, and many
parents regard the gardens as havens
Of traffic safety for the children, es-
pecially during the Summer"
Insisting that children learn the
dignity Of labor and the significance Of
property rights and law enforcement,
she asserted that training in citizen
ship is better given in the garden
than almost anywhere else.
Personalities grow, too," she con-
tinued. Even raising one radish gives
the child \ sense OF achievement"
She also pointed out the healthful
features Of working in the sun.
Stressing the value of elementary
science, Miss Scott said: I'VE need
both natural science and social SCI
ence to get along in this world"

HIT BY 0LMSTED
Surviving Member of McMiI-
Ian Park Commission Says
Basin Site Inadequate.

Frederick Law Olmsted of Brookline,
Mass, only surviving member of the
Mcmillan Park Commission of 1901
and former member of both the Fine
Arts Commission and the National
Capital Park and Planning Commits
sion, opposing the projected Thomas
Jefferson Memorial at the Tidal Basin
In West Potomac Park, today was on
record as contending that an adequate
setting could probably never be Gre
ated" there.
Pointing to the problems arising
from the proposed construction of the
memorial, Olmsted said any attempt
to proceed with building now without
solving attendant problems would be
likely than success"
Olmsted's position was made known
by Horace M. Albright, former director
Of the National Park Service, now
president of the American Planning
and Civic Association, who quoted the
own vigorous protest to Representative
Boylan, Democrat, of New York, chair
man Of the Thomas Jefferson Memo
rial Commission Olmsted wired to
Albright.
Delan0 Commission Chairman.
Frederic A. Delano, chairman of the
National Capital Park and Planning
Commission, is leader in the aSSocia-
ton and was its president formerly.
He is now chairman of the board.
Olmsted said: THE jefferson Me-
morial with its terraces as now de-
signed, would be so Stupendous in ap-
pearance that, in my opinion, an
adequate setting could probably never
be created in the Tidal Basin location
hemmed in by the Bureau of Engraving
and Printing and by railroad and
highway embankments and bridges.
Other vitally important problems
a. yet unsolved and possibly I'M
solvable are involved in its relations
to surroundings including Washington
and Lincoln Memorials.
Unless and until successful solu-
ton for these unSolved problems are
found and embodied in feasible and
approved plans for the reconstruction
Of the surrounding park, any precipi-
tate commitment to building the latter
as now designed would be leap in the
dark with failure more likely than
success"
Fears for Shade Trees.
In his letter, in which Olnsteds
sentiments are set forth, Albright as
serted that a study showed that
the present shores of the Tidal Basin
would be altered, save at the Inlet
and Outlet Bridges and that not only
would the famous japanese cherry
trees be sacrificed, but that about
1000 shade and ornamental trees would

I'VE believe that the commission
can find a more suitable site for
Thomas jefferson memorial" Albright
wrote, We believe that public senti-
ment in Washington and in the coun-
try at large is opposed to the use of
the Tidal Basin site"
A poll of the members having most
to do with the Federal City, Albright
said, showed that sentiment is op-
posed to the construction of the Thorn.
IS Jefferson Memorial, as at present
planned John Russell Pope. the noted
New York architect, has been selected
by the commission, and he has now
designed the memorial for the south
side Of the Tidal Basin
