CITIZENS FIGHT
PLAY PROPOSAL
FOR VACANT LOT
Branch Library Sought
i By Friendship Group
BY A. J. DRISCOLL
Citizens Associations Editor

ANA@~@1o
A proposal Of the National Cap
ltal Park and Planning Commis-
sion to establish a recreation cen
ter on vacant land adjacent to the
Janney School, Albermarle Street
and Wisconsin Avenue, met with
vigorous resistance last night by
the Friendship Citizens Associa-
tion.
In opposing the plan the asso-
citation reaffirmed a former action
requesting the land be held for the
erection of a branch library, which
the group has advocated for many
years.
PRESIDENT LEADS FIGHT
President Samuel j. Flickinger
left the chair to lead the fight
against the recreation center pro-
posal. He pointed out that in
1927, the c o m m / 81 o n e rs and
Board of Education had decided
the land should be used for a
branch library, and that the Ma
tional Capital Park and Planning
Commission, in asking that the
site should be used for recreation,
was attempting to exercise bu-
Teaucratic and autocratlc powers.
The association favored a meth
cd of pedestrian control, especial
ly in the downtown section. Car
mine Garofola, George E. Can
non, William H. Turnage, and
Abraham Stein were named to de-
wise a plan to be recommended to
the Commissioners.
A resolution was drafted for
presentation to President RooSe-
velt urging early appointment OF
q Peoples Counsel, for which an
appropriation Of $500 was made
by the last session Of Congress.
TRAFFIC LIGHTS ASKED
Traffic lights were asked for
Wisconsin Avenue at Fessenden
Street. and for Tenley Circle. A
traffic count at the Fessenden
Street intersection showed 800 We
hicleS passed in 13 minutes.
James A. Webb, a speaker from
the Community Chest, urged CO.
operation in the annual drive for
funds.
New members efected were C. e.
Buchanan, L. s. Jones, George F.
Bixby, Hanna Ayoub, Mark Wood
ward, j. Herbert Duvall, and

OF VOcdtiO1as

Man is not born to fill one GER
tain job, but possesses potenti-
ahties of performing satisfactorily
hundreds of diverse occupations,
Max Baer, national director of the
B'nai Birth Vocational Service
Bureau, said last night in a lee
ture at the Jewish Community
Center.
Baer pointed out the last ma
tional census showed over $4,000
occupations in this country. He
added that to master an occupa-
tion does not mean one was "cut
out for the job" but involves
merely the acquisition of q tech
nique.
He said effective vocational
guidance is not a magical art, "
but merely common sense forti-
fled by information"

Questions Answered

Mrs. b. T. M.-Do not worry if
your child prefers the egg yolk to
the white. The white is chiefly
protein, and he can easily obtain
protein from other foods, especial
ly milk. But the yolk contains an
abundance of minerals and vita
minis in addition to protein and
fat. Nutritionists have determined
that the inclusion of one egg yolk
daily in an otherwise adequate
diet is an effective method of bal
ancing the intake and output Of
iron in child's diet.
Miss S. B.-No, the generous
use of cream cannot be consid-
cred as substitute for taking
milk as a beverage or in cooked
dishes. Cream is much higher In
fat and contains less protein, min
erals and vitamins, with the ex-
ception of vitamin A. Cream de-
serves to be included in the di-
etary for its vitamin A content,
but it should not replace milk.
Mrs. A. Nick. - Strawberries
contain vitamins A, B and c. Re-
cent experiments indicate that
they rank with citrus fruits and to-
matoes as a source of vitamin G.

For That Musty Odor.-To re-
move musty odor from room,

Preparing Baked Potatoes
Baked potatoes look much nicer if
scooped from the shell, mashed
with butter, pepper and salt, a
well-beaten yolk of an egg, then
placed back in the half shell and
Drowned in the oven. They not
only look nicer, but taste better.
Rinse Silks Well.-Silk under
things should be washed in water
that is barely warm, and should
be rinsed in at least three fresh
rlnSlng waters.
When Painting Molding. - A
piece of heavy cardboard is handy
for the amateur painter to hold
under the molding to protect the
wall paper.
When Someone Is Ill.-Always
wrap rubber hotwater bottle in
soft cloth before placing in pa
tents bed. Place the bottle near
but not against the patients flesh.
If placed too close the patient
may be burned before realizing it.
Hemming Sash Curtains.-Make
the hens of sash curtains the
same at the top and bottom. You
can then use them either end up.

Hidden Benefits

Few housewives realize the un-
DERIVING advantage of the use Of
a good light-oil furniture polish!
Most polish is used only for the
luster it bestows on the chairs,
tables, piano, woodwork in the
home. Rubbing the polish on
cleans the furniture-works up a
glow-and the outward effect is
fresh and sparkling! But that is
only part of the housewives re-
ward. For out of this domestic
routine comes definite benefit to
the furniture! A reputable polish,
with a light oil base, does what
is known as feeding" the finish.
The massage" causes the oil to
penetrate, seep into the pores of
the wood-just enough to lubricate
and keep it healthy! Here, it is
important to note that cheap pol
ishes are made with heavy oil
base-and are greasy and un-
pleasant to use. The best polish
made with fine ight-oil base
is never greasy. Applied on a
damp cloth (according to direc-
tions), it is neat to use and proves
a boon to the furniture! Lack of
polishing-or the use of a poor
polish-will cause the finest wood
to dry out, crack, splitter wood
is product of Nature and needs
a certain amount of oily moist
ness. So polish the furniture regu-
larly! Use a quality oil polish-it
pays! For not only does the furni-
ture look better-it is better! Its
life is preserved!

Tanning" the Air Waves.
Naturally, one of Germany's big
gest radio battles is with Russia,
from whence come mighty surges
of propaganda daily, aimed at Nazi
receivers and preaching the Com
munist doctrine. Germany's coun-
ter procedure is to "jam" the air
by filling the wave length with a
noise so loud that it browns the
Moscow speaker.
More dramatic by far was the
recent radio clash between Great
Britain and Italy. In Palestine,
where revolts between Arabs and
Jews have been commonplace and
distressing, Great Britain charged
Italy was fomenting trouble, wooing
the Arabs via short wave broad

NEED FOR VITAMIN B

Another important factor in pro-
noting normal elimination is vita
min B, which has been shown to
be essential for good muscular
tone and activity of the digestive
tract. Investigations with expert
mental animals have demonstrate
ed that it requires twice as long
to empty the large intestine when
the diet is deficient in vitamin B.
Yeast, egg yolk, milk, whole grain
cereals, liver and green leafy veg
etables are good sources of this
vitamin.

LIQUIDS ESSENTIAL

A sufficient quantity of liquids
is likewise necessary to prevent
the contents of the lower intestine
from becoming too hard for easy
evacuation. In addition to water,
the diet should therefore contain
an abundance of milk, fruit juices
and other beverages. Acidophilus
milk and buttermilk are especial
ly beneficial.
Fats and oils, used in modera-
ton, act as gentle lubricants.

FATE OF FOOD IN THE BODY


From the mouth, food passes
down the esophagus into the stom-
ach, where it is penetrated by the
gastric juice. 1t then passes into
the small intestine where it is
mixed with the secretions of the
liver and the pancreas. Here the
nutritive elements are absorbed
by minute, hair-like tubes which
line the intestinal walls. These
tubes converge into the blood YES
sells and lymphatics which trans
port nourishment to all parts of
the body.
Undigested residues pass into
the large intestine or colon, where
they are normally moved along
by a series of muscular contrac-
tons known as peristalsis, and
finally evacuated
The amount of the evacuation
varies in bulk with the amount of
indigestible roughage contained in
the food. When there is INSULT
cient bulk to promote normal per-
istalsiS, waste accumulates and
we have the condition known as
constipation with all its resulting
evils. Bacteria prey upon the
stagnating material, producing
poisons which may be absorbed
by the body.
There is not the slightest excuse
for allowing this condition to de-
velOp. For the misery and wretch
edness of constipation may easily
be avoided by including in the
daily diet sufficient laxative foods,
that is, those rich in fiber or eel
lul0se.
BULK OR FIBER ESSENTIAL
Because of their fibrous frame
work, plant foods are our chief
source of cellulose or bulk, and
therefore, our greatest aid in pro-
noting normal elimination. Vege-
tables and fruits are sworn foes
of constipation, and unrefined ce-
reals are also extremely valuable.

MOON ECLIPSE WILL BE TOTAL
 IN US. MAY IA
Darkest Period to Fall Be. tween 3:l8-4 :O9
 in Morning

Delaware, O., April 21.-(UP)-A total eclipse of the moon will be visible May 14 over North and South Americas, Australia and the Pacific Ocean.
 The eclipse, first since July, 1895, will continue for 50 minutes begin ming at 3:18 8. m. EST, according to calculation at Perkins Observa- tory. Ohio Wesleyan university.
 Astronomers explained that the phenomenon which has little scien- tif1c value occurs when the sun and the moon move directly opposite each other with the earth between.
 As the eclipse becomes visible, the moon moves through the shadow cast by the earth opposite the sun. The so-called eclipse happens because the moons visi- bility to the earths inhabitants depends on the reflection of the suns rays.
 Chart Made for Eclipse
 Log of the May IA eclipse, based on eastern standard time, will be as follows:
 12:44 a. m.-Light outer shadow of the earth begins to encroach upon the moons disc.
 1:57-Dark "umbra" or the main shadow of the earth rolls over the moon.
 3:18-Total eclipse begins.
 3:44-Midway point in eclipse.
 4:09-End of total eclipse.
 5:31-"Umbra" shadow leaves moon.
 6:43-Light shadow or "pen-um- bra" leaves moon.
 During the eclipse, the moon will be 247,0O0 miles from the earth, while the earth's shadow will ex- tend 867,000 miles.
 Moon to Grow Colder
 Temperatures on the surface of the moon, normally about the boiling point of water, PIP degrees Fahrenheit, will drop by 300 de- grees during the 5O-minute shadow ing.
 AS the total eclipse starts, the moon will be outlined faintly in dull, copper red like a huge penny in the sky. The red hue will be- come steadily duller until the mid dle of the shadow goes past. The reddish tinge, even during the supposedly total eclipse, is caused by the bending of sun rays around the surface of the earth by the re5raction of the atmosphere, scientists said.
 Because the moon in total eclipse will not pass directly through the center of the earth's shadow, the glow will be distrib- uted unevenly with greatest in- teasity on the southern edge.
 Robert Emmons, student astron- ot1er, predicted an eclipse of even longer duration will be visible Nov. 2 from the American continents.
