CHURCH BODY AGREES
ON "CHEST SUNDAYS"
More Than 200 Protestant Min
listers to Make Appeal
at Service.

The Washington Federation Of
Churches has given official approval
for two Community Chest Sundays"
to be observed In Washington churches
The approval came in response to let
ters from DR. Allen A. Stockdale. chair
man Of the Chests speakers unit, to
DR.. Horace E. Cromer and DR.. w. L..
Darby, president and executive secre-
tary, respectively. of the federation.
More than 200 Protestant ministers
will devote one service to the cause
Of the Community Chest on either
october 81 or November z. In asking
for observance of two Sundays, DR..
Stockdale explained that in many
churches it is customary to hold
communion service on the first Sum-
day Of the month and many ministers
would not care to interrupt that serv-
ice. For that reason the alternative
Sunday was requested.

GUARANTEE LUNCH
FOR 26O CHILDREN

Fearing that the District govern
ment this year may not be able to
resume the free lunch program for
school children under the w. P. A.,
officials of Opportunity House, q
charity organization, today advised
the Commissioners they will guar
antee the provision of the lunches
for as many as 260 children.
These will be pupils of the Gales,
Blake and Seaton Schools, which are
In the general vicinity of Opportunity
House at 915 New Jersey avenue. The
offer was placed before the Commits
sioners by Arthur Clarendon Smith,
Fairfax Oyster and Frank Buckley,
representing the staff of the insti-
tuition.
They figured the cost would be
about cents per day per child and
said they felt sure they could guar
antee the raising of about $4,000 for
the school term.

"FL0ATER" BURDEN
ON D. c. PROTESTED
Seal Cites St. EIizabeth's
Hospital Care in 0ut|in-
ing Legislative Aims.

A bill relieving the District of Co.
lumbia from the financial burden of
maintaining "floaters" picked up on
the streets and sent to ST. Elizabeths
Hospital is included by Corporation
Counsel Elwood Seal in a new six
point legislative program drawn up for
the District.
Seal said the District is now pay
ing SIS month each for the keep of
some SIS insane war veterans and other
persons at the Federal hospital who
have no other claim on the District
than that they were here temporarily
before being committed. Washington
is the objective Of many of these vet
Grams, he said, who drift here to see
about just or imaginary claims against
the Government. About a score of
these persons find their way to wards
in st. Elizabeth's annually and he
proposes to submit a bill transferring
the expense of their upkeep to the
Federal Government.
Extension of Powers Sought.
The Commissioners will make an
other attempt when Congress recon-
venes to secure legislation broadening
their powers in many respects. Urged
last session, the bill failed of passage.
Seal said the bill would give the Com
missioners absolute control over ap-
pointments to the Board of Education
and the Board of Trustees of the
Public Library; combine the metropol-
itan and park police; authorize the
Commissioners to name streets and
lay pipelines without having to go to
Congress for permission, and many
other long g-desired powers.
Other bills on the list include new
tax program; civil service set-up for
the District; the regulation of corpo-
rations and the bill recommended by
Chairman Palmisano of the House
District Committee giving the Com
missioners control over the budget.
The tax recommendations, of course.
are being left for future decision, Seal
said, pending the study of taxes au-
thorized by Congress in enacting the
new tax program now in effect.
Eliminates Budget Bureau.
The budget-control measure, he ex-
planned, would merely take the Dis
trict estimates out of the control of
the Budget Bureau. 1t would enable
the Commissioners to make their own
estimates or reductions in estimates
and send them direct to the House
Appropriations Committee without
reference to the Budget Bureau.
Seal pointed out there is need and
demand for distinctive civil service
set-up for the District. Such set-up
would provide an independent ehgi-
bility list on which the Commission
ers could draw for employees instead
Of being forced to take those fur
nished by the Civil Service Commis-
sion.
With respect to the bill regulating
corporations in the District, he said
it would require them to register and
pay fees.
The only entirely new bill on the
legislative program, it was said, is the
one affecting insane patients.

NEW REGATTA CUP
GIVEN BY HEUR|CH
Plans for Pageant Are Near
Completion, Luncheon
Meeting Told.

A new trophy for the fastest mile
by Gold Cup class boat entering the
Presidents Cup regatta came into Off
cial existence yesterday.
The award, large silver cup, was
presented to Joseph Councillor, gen.
eral chairman of the Regatta Com
mittee. by Chris Heurich, jr., donor,
at luncheon meeting in the Har-
rington Hotel-laSt of the year for the
Fo'csr Club, made up of Regatta
Committee officers and committee
chairmen.
At the head table beside the Heu-
rich Cup reposed the Eleanor Pat
terson duplicate of the Presidents
Cup, official presentation of which
was made later in the day by Mrs.
Patterson, Times-Herald publisher.
Most Reports Favorable.
Committee reports on the whole
were brief and favorable, remarks on
Sundays weather, which caused many
sailing contenders to swamp, being the
only gloomy matter Of business.
Melville Hildreth, chairman of the
Pageant Committee, reported plans for
Thursday nights Bonhomme Richard
VS.. Scraps encounter-two dressed-up
Navy barges-Were rapidly nearing
completion and that the two war
ships" would be towed into the Poto-
mac near the water gate as soon as
their cheesecloth sails and "ratlin's"
had been affixed.
Announcement of the schedule for
motor boat races Friday, Saturday and
Sunday at Hams Point was made.
Outboard races are to be run off from
11:30 am. to $50 pm. Friday; in
board races, climaxed by the Gold Cup
race, from i: AS to 5:45 pm. Saturday,
and from to $50 pm. Sunday.
Swimming Events.
Swimming, diving and water polo
events will be held at 7:30 pm. Fri
day in the Shoreham Hotel pool.
A high light of the luncheon was
a eulogy of John Paul Jones by At
torney John Paul Jones of Washing
ton. After first making it clear he
was not descendant of the famous
sea fighter, as John Paul Jones was
never married" he sketched the ad-
venturous life of the Bonhomme Rich
ards commander and founder of the
American f,avy.
Friday night will be marked by a
street carnival, la Mardi Gras, from
Seventh street to Seventeenth street,
with dancing, music, special lights and
decorations.
Washingtonians have been asked BY
E. Ford Young, chairman of the Dec
grafton Committee, to decorate their
houses with red, white and blue bunt-
ing, and 35 hotels will fly American
and foreign flags in honor of the occa-
sion. Business firms along the line of
march will compete in decoration for
the two silver loving cups.
At Thursday nights pageant Doris
Doe, National Broadcasting Co. and
Metropolitan Opera soprano, will sing
THE Star-Spangled Banner" with
the Navy Band in accompaniment, and
Miss Louise Colbert will oe crowned
queen of the regatta.

.S2,686 IN SCHOOL,
DECREASE OF 1,S47
Officials Are Puzzled Over
Drop in Elementary
Registrations.

With 1886 children enrolled on
opening day Of school yesterday, a de-
crease of 1,847 was shown, as COM
pared with the first day a year ago,
it was reported today at the superin-
tendent's Office.
Additional school censuses will be
taken today, Thursday and Friday,
and it was expected late arrivals would
augment the initial figure consid-
erably.
1t was pointed out that the Jewish
holidays kept many pupils away, al
though the New Year observance had
a similar effect last year and pre-
sumably would not affect the COM
parative figures.
Officials Puzzled.
Officials were somewhat puzzled by
decrease of 1850 in the registration
at the elementary schools. This was
offset only slightly by increases in en-
rollments at senior and junior high
schools. The junior high schools
showed a net increase of us, while
the seniors enrolled % more than last
year.
Apparently, the decision in the Lois
Kemp case, requiring District schools
to accept children of nonresident
Government employees had no par
ticular effect No rush of additional
students from Maryland and Vir-
ginia was reported
Makes Safety Appeal.
AS the new school session got under
way. Mrs. Henry Grafton Doyle, presi-
dent of the Board of Education, made
radio appeal to motorists to do all
in their power to protect the children.
Speaking over WMAL, Mrs. Doyle
emphasized the danger to the small
children who are going to school for
the first time and are not used to
making their own way through traffic.
Schoolboy traffic patrolmen, num-
bering more than 5000. commissioned
by the American Automobile Associa-
ton and the Police Department, were
stationed on the corners near schools
at the hours of arrival and departure.

|BR|NKLEY GLASSES
REPORTED MISSING
Family of Vanished Contrac-
tor in Conflict With Police
Over Whereabouts.

The aura Of mystery shrOuding the
disappearance of Arthur G.. Brinkley
was heightened today with relatives of
the missing contractor and Arlington
County police in sharp conflict over
the whereabouts Of an important link
in the chain of circumstances support
ing the theory Brinkley met with foul
play.
Members of the Washington mans
family said pair of broken spectacles
that were found on the floor of Brink
ley'S car when the abandoned machine
was discovered last Wednesday on
Kirkwood road, in Arlington, are miss
ing.
They had been in the possession of
police, who denied the eyeglasses had
disappeared and declared we know
where the glasses are"
Told Glasses Gone.
1t was said at the Brinkley home at
55l4 First street that German Brink
ley, son of the contractor. was told by
Sheriff Fields yesterday that they're
gone. We haven't got them"
II don't know anything about such
a statement" Fields told The Stal
this morning. ,"I haven't been work.
ing on the case. I don't know any,
thing about it."
Detective Hugh Jones of Arlington
County denied the glasses have van
ished and said I'VE know where they
are" He stated the spectacles had
been examined by both Arlington
and Washington police for finger
prints and that nothing was found >
The presence of the broken eve
glasses in the automobile had con-
vinced relatives that Brinkley haG
been murdered. Without them he
was helpless, they asserted.
Clues Held Dismissed.
1t was said by Brinkleys family
this morning that Sheriff Fields also
had dismissed as unimportant two
clues to which they attach consid-
cradle Importance.
One OF these is freshly packed
working mans lunch and the other 8
heavy automobile wrench. Both OF
these were found by German Brinkley
in field near his fathers car while
he was assisting police Thursday in
search along KirkwoOd road
They denied reports that financial
troubles might have caused Brinkley
to disappear and declared he was ''un-
troubled by money matters"
He owsd few bills and had more
work available than he could possibly
handle, they added
