CLARK HAS VIEWS
ON REORGAN|z|NG
Suggests President Submit
Specific Recommendations
to Congress.
By the Associated Press.

6y the Associated Press.
Senator Clark, Democrat, of Mis-
souri, suggested today that President
Roosevelt submit to the next Congress
specific recommendations for Govern
ment reorganization instead of asking
broad discretionary powers to make the
changes. as he did last session.
Il don't believe that Congress will
be in any mood to give the President
blank check on reorganization" Sem
ator Clark said. If he will submit
recommendations for specific consoli-
dations and changes, however, think
most of them would be approved"
The Senate approved the admin
istration's reorganization program at
the last session, but it died IN the
House. Senator Clark, one of the bill S
foes, predicted the Senate would not
approve a similar measure next year.
Seven Will Be Missing.
The Missourian said he based his
prediction on the fact at least seven
of the Democratic Senators who voted
for the bill-Berry of Tennessee, Die
terich Of Illinois. Hitchcock of South
Dakota. Milton of New Jersey. Nc
Adoo of California, Pope of Idaho and
Reams of Oregon-will not be back
next year, either because of voluntary
retirements or primary election de-
feats. Opponents thus far have lost
one Of their number, through the
death of Senator Copeland, Democrat,
of New York.
President Roosevelt told his press
conference this week he had discussed
the broad principles of reorganization
with members of commission which
studied the need for Government
changes, but had not gone into de-
tails of possible changes in last ses-
sion's bill.
Has Not Discussed Plan.
Senator Clark said he had not dis
cussed with other Senators a current
proposal that the original Reorganiza-
ton Committee, headed by Senator
Byrd, Democrat, of Virginia. draft a
compromise measure acceptable to the
administration and opponents OF the
previous bill.
Senator Byrd led the Senate hight
against the measure brought out last
session by an enlarged committee
headed by Senator Byrnes, Democrat,
of South Carolina.
If the Wheeler amendment were
added, the bill might be acceptable,
although I am not sure that 1 would
vote for it even then" Senator Clark
declared. This amendment. offered by
Senator Wheeler Democrat. of Mon
tana, would have given Congress the
final say on any changes approved by
the President 1t failed of adoption
by three votes
Senator Clark said he would continue
to oppose the proposed creation of
one-man civil service administration
and of the Office of auditor general to
take over most of the duties of the
controller general, whose Office would
be abolished.

ports of old houses, during course

by amateur cabinet-makers.
This wood is extremely hard and
a great deal of time and care are
expended in manufacture Of the fur
niture. Calloused hands-for many
use only sharp penknife-are the
reward. The old gnarled cedar,
however, is replete with fine knot
holes.
Polish is never used in the finish
ing Of the furniture. But wax and
oil, used in small quantities, gives a
rich, dull finish and, in addition,
preserves the pungent fragrance of

Old Art of Making Furniture by Hand
Is Followed by Craftsmen in Bermuda

The dizziness Of the early settlers
in Bermuda in making household
furniture from wood of the cedar
trees they found growing on the is
lands is preserved today, three cen
turtles later in many of their de-
scendants, writes a Hamilton, Ber-
muda, correspondent in the New
York Times.
While many Bermuda homes con-
tain pieces of antique furniture
fashioned by the hands of men who
fought against the sea to gain
foothold on the jagged coral shore,
they also can show tables, chairs
and bedsteads made by contempt
rary residents which follow closely
old designs and methods of the
workmanship of the colonists.
Little of the work is done pro-
fessionally, because American and
British, furniture may be purchased
comparatively cheaply. But the JOY
of the craftsman, inherited through
several generations, manifests it
self in the pride that is expressed in
this typical Bermuda hobby. Only
old cedar wood is used-wood that
is thoroughly dead, dry and aged.
For this reason, beams and sup

ly.
The rest of the cavalcade ap-
preached and La Gobernadora drew
to her husbands side.
What is it?" she asked, then
catching sight of the girl, gasped.
"Ah!" she breathed. "Ah! A-ah!"
She glanced swiftly at her husband.
He was looking at the girl, smiling
absently.
"she is Naked" said Eulalia,
quite naked!"
Exactly. Nearly as bare as my
hand, as far as can see. Pretty
little savage, isn't she?"
"She-" Eulalia broke out violent

you please have them bring up my
chests, or will have to have An
gustias do it?"
Every well, will" replied Don
Pedro grimly. "But remember this.
In Monterey there are no shops,
no mantua-makers. No places to
buy clothes, or materials, no one
to make them. The supply ship
comes twice year with goods for
the presidio store, stuff for the SOL
diers' women. Cotton goods, I don't
know what you call them, but I
know you never wear them. And
there is no telling when, il ever, you
will get any new clothes when these
are gone. Do you understand"
La Gobernadora stared at him
speechless. No shops? No silks nor
satins? No shops?
II do not believe you! You never
told me this before. You mean to
say that in the capital Of all the
CALIFORNIA; there is nothing to buy,
and nowhere to buy it? In the cap
ital?" Her voice was rising danger
ously, and those about her moved
away, pretending deliberately not to
hear. When the Governor spoke it
was in low but telling tone.
The Indian girl still stood uncon-
cernedly in the center Of the group,
one hand on a tawny hip, the bas-
ket still balanced on her head, and
eyed the white man on the horse.
The two frailes leered at her avidly
and whispered.
'"That Is just what l do mean.
l should think you would know that
without my telling you. If you
still persist in giving away your
raiment, however, you may. But
you will see that Monterey isis
Monterey"
Eulalia was thoroughly alarmed,
apprehensive, but stubborn. Don
Pedro gave some brief orders. Soon
the boxes were unloaded from the
pack burros who rolled and snorted
in the grasses and wild-fowers when
their burdens were removed.
The lady and Angustias dismount-
ed and began opening the boxes. An
gustias' face bristled with an ex-
preston Of disgust, but she forbore
to make any remarks. Carefully she
looked over the clothing, handsome
things of costly stuffs and rich col
ors. But Eulalia piled them on the
ground impatiently.
Silently, from among the bushes
and trees, other Indians made their
stealthy appearances, and when Eu-
lalia glanced up, she saw she was
surrounded by ring of girls and
men in breech-clouts.
'Ugh!'' she exclaimed, angus
tias, look at them! Give them some
thing, quickly, for the love Of God!"
Nearer and nearer the tempting
goods circled the natives. One
youth, with wild whoop, snatched
at red velvet skirt, and dis
appeared. The others followed his
example, and all was confusion.
"Pedro, stop them! They will take
anything" cried the lady.
But the Governor sat his horse,
laughing.
Angustias was struggling with the
screaming giggling girls when the
