MORAL TRAINING
Denies Poverty Is Cause of
Development of Notorious
Criminals in U. S.

Not poverty in the home but failure
Of parents to provide necessary moral
and spiritual training. is the factor
most responsible in the making of
criminals, Louis B. Nichols. admins
trative assistant in the Federal Bureau
of Investigation, told summer rally
sponsored by the Y M c. A. and the
Young Peoples Division Of the District
Of Columbia Sunday School Associa-
ton at the Petworth Baptist Church
last night.
Most Of our notorious criminals
have been the products of homes that
lacked no material comforts" he said,
that more criminals come from homes
in the s50-a-week salary class than
from the $25 bracket.
One of the chief problems in juvenile
crime prevention, with its ultimate
curtailment Of adult crime, is the
proper directing of the individuals
energies by home training and the
guidance of schools and churches, Mr..
Nichols said.
Chester H. Jones. president of the
Young Peoples Conference. presided
at the meeting. The invocation was
pronounced by the Rev. Harry v.
Porter, pastor Of the Westminster
Presbyterian Church, and the Rev.
Frank e. Johnston, jr., assistant min
lister at Calvary Baptist Church. gave
the benediction. DR.. Charles e. Resser,
president Of the Sunday School Asso-
ciation, was among those present.

ALLEY MEASURE
HASTEDEMANDED
Industrial Union Council
Head Says City Needs
l0W-C0St H0usinu.

SPEEDY amendment of the District
Alley Dwelling Act to enable the To-
cal Authority to accept funds from
the United States Housing Authority
was urged today by John Anderson,
president of the D. c. Industrial Union
Council. The action was authorized
by the council in a resolution to be
submitted to President Roosevelt and
members of Congress
Inc necessary amendments are now
being drafted by the District Authority
for submission to Congress. Their
preparation was delayed in recent
weeks by differences of opinion be-
tween officials of the two housing
agencies, presumably settled during
the past week by conferences at the
White House.
In his plea for haste, Mr.. Anderson
warned that any who stand in the
way would be guilty of a social crime
against the underpaid workers of the
city"
Washington needs real low-cost
housing to take care of the thousands
who are burdened with exorbitant
rents or who live in dwellings which
should be condemned as UNIT living
quarters" he added.
Mr.. Anderson complained that the
present procedure of replacing slum
dwellings by self-liquidating projects
results In rentals too high to be with
in the range Of low-wage workers. a
condition which is in disregard of in
come limitations Of the people pre-
sumably being served.
Real low-cost housing that will
benefit large number of the people
needs Government subsidy" he con-
cluded. THE dispossessed should find
dwellings, no worse. at least, than their
present quarters. The elimination a.
slums depends upon two things
l. immediate housing facilities at a
low cost for those who desperately
need them; and 2. better wages and
the consequent higher standard of
living which they will bring.

LAND DENIES POWER
TO BOOST SUBSIDY

Chairman E. S. Land of the Mari
time Commission said yesterday the
commission considered itself powerless
under the present law to increase the
subsidy for the Baltimore Mail Steam.
ship Line.
He added the commission would op-
pose any resolution proposed by Con-
gress to direct the commission to ex-
tend the subsidy to the amount the
line believes necessary for it to sur
vive
Such proposal. he said, would
violate the commissions policy, woA.d
show favoritism to particular line,
and the excessive subsidy required
would jeopardize the whole merchant
marine program"
Chairman Land testified before the
House Merchant Marine Committee on
a resolution by Representative Hamil-
ton. Democrat, of Virginia to continue
the line in its present service until
Congress could investigate and enact
remedial legislation.
The company has planned to dis
continue service from Hampton Roads
and Baltimore to LIE Havre and HAM
burg and put its vessels in intercoastal
trade between New York and San
Francisco after May 26.
The line is subsidized $4O6 900 an
nually. Its operators testified yesterday
that minimum Of $l,035, 900 would
be required for the line to continue OPP

service.

There was total eclipse of the full

The earth's shadow made its first

just before daylight, at 5:09
Unfortunately for astronomers, the
sky clouded up in the early morning
hours, but some of the effects of the
eclipse were still visible in gaps of
star-spangled sky left by the neeting
clouds. The eclipse had been looked
forward to with some interest be-
cause it occurred in part of the sky

glimpses of the queerest phenomenon
connected with moon eclipses. sort
of reddish or copper-colored glow
projected from the earth on the dark
ened disk. This is caused by rays
Of light from the edge Of the earth,
as seen from the moon, being refracted
towards the lunar surface. As the
blue rays are absorbed by the earth's
atmosphere, only the red rays are left.
This was the first Of series Of
eclipses predicted for 1888 by the
