Beef & Provision Co., lilo E street
S.W.
Smith and Gray, it was said, Of
fered to prove they could move the
safe alone. Accordingly Assistant

safe returned to the provision COM

sent word to the District Jail to

Botanic Garden Aza|eas
Beginning 10 Bloom

The hothouse aZalea collection at
the Botanic Garden has just started
to come into bloom and should be
at its peak within two weeks, Off
cials said today. AS soon as the
several hundred plants, primarily
Of the Rutherfordiana type, are in
top form a special display will be
made.
Though no special exhibits are in
the conservatory now, the foricul-
tural displays are attracting much
attention, garden officials said
These are included in the permanent
exhibits and may be seen at any
time of the year.
Among recent acquisitions are
extra specimens deposited five weeks
ago by the Carnegie Institution. In
cluded are barrel cactus from the
Southwest and a honey mangrove
from Florida.
The cactus stands 3l2 feet high
and is said to be 95 per cent water
Members of its family in the past
have been tapped for water by
desert wanderers
In its native location the man
grove lives in brackish water. At
the garden here experiments are
being made in an attempt to get it
to survive in fresh water. The
roots of the 5-foot tree are aerial

libel upon the wife and mother"
 Quoting a booklet GIllusion or Reality? Revelation and Mystical Belief" by Dr. Mathes Ziegler, a high Nazi official Kulturkampf re- flutes Chancellor Hitler's assertion on January 30, 1889; that "the Nazi State has not attempted to influence the teacheings of any religious de- nomination" ziegler's Nazi booklet, which serves as instructional ma terial for Nazi training centers and Hitler Youth organizations, is quot- ed as telling the young people of Germany that "illusory attitude of faith, of yearning for revelation"- which is that of the Christian re- ligion-"is Oriental-Jewish; it can therefore never be suitable for hu- man beings of Nordic- Germanic soul. We must accustom ourselves to the fact that, for Germans, the messenger of God is not the of- ficial priest, but only the fighter the fighter who obeys the con- mands and laws of life by deeds and by stalking his own life" Comment ing on this pagan-like statement, Kulturkampf says: "The storm Troop terrorists, the murderers of Chancellor Dollfuss, the burners of synagogues-these are the Nazis' messengers of God whose message is conveyed by their deeds. No longer, then, is it the Word that shall lead and teach the German youth but the brownshirted mes sengers of God, the propagandists of the deed carried out with revolv- CT and dagger Hence loyalyt to the swastika is the Alpha and Omega of Nazi faith, a cult of blind obedience to the leaders of the party and the state, the adoration of &C., tion for actions sake (the indis- pensable psychological preparation for war), new amoral, nihilist re- ligion of the NaA state."

 The American "Kulturkampf" As- Sociation plans to extend to the Uni- ted States and Canada and activities of the "Kulturkampf" Association of London, England, which for some years has been combating the Nazi anti-church drive, under the leader ship of the Bishop of Chichester, the Rev. Elmslie, and leading English Catholics. Church leaders of all de- nominations have praised the work of the organization in England.
 KULTURKAMPF quotes from the "Schwarze Korps," the organ of the Hitler Elite Guards, of February 16, 1933, and points to Nazi propaganda leading up to complete confiscation of church property. "The churches with their numberless and marvel ouS art treasures have not been cre- ated by the church as such but are the work of the German soul .. churches stand empty and meaning less The organizations of the (NazD Party are obliged to use beer halls for their activities ."
 Quotation
 A further quotation from the 'Schwarze Korps," for February g, illustrates the Nazi press attack on the late Pope, signed by writer who calls himself "a devout Cath ollc. The n-ChriStian and un-Catholic struggle of Plus xI against Fascism and thus against National Socialism alienated him more and more from the leading men in Italy and Germany We Germans remember with hor- TOT the Street-Arab attacks of Card 1nal Mundelein of Chicago. Plus XI did not utter a single word of con- demnation against those impudent attacks"
 Likewise, according to Kultur- kampf, official Nazi propaganda is aimed at slandering Christianity by the alleged "degradatoin of woman in Christian doctrine" Der Sa- Mann," affocial Nazi weekly. is quoted as attempting to prove this in its issue of February 24 by say ing: Together with its Oriental views regarding women, the New Testament introduced the sensually perverted atmosphere, poisoned love and marriage, and surrounded the cool, clear, and natural chastity of the Nordic peoples with the swing ing red light of the harem Celibacy the deliberate and organ 1zed bachelorhood of the priest caste, is nothing but continuous

V7INTER-LONG radiator protec-
w ton against freeze-ups, overhead
ing, and other radiator damage caused
by freezing weather costs as little as
two cents day when motorists use
permanent type anti-freeze that lasts
through the winter without replacement.
This figure, contained in nationwide
report of cold weather information made
by the National Carbon Company, is
based on the five-to-seven-month winter
which occurs in Ill out of ITO cities
listed on the daily weather map of the
United States.
According to this report, compiled
from official United States Weather
Bureau records for the past five years,
freezing weather comes earlier and lasts
longer than most motorists realize.
While the calendar winter is only three
months long, these records show that
from five to seven months frequently
separate the first freezing date from the
last. Throughout this period cold is not
constant, but the temperature shoots
up and down, from cold to warm and
back again, changing as much as &c
degrees within few days time.
If an anti-freeze is to be continuously
effective under such varied tempera-
lures. it must have boiling point high
