"As it Appears To
Your Congressman
BY John r. Nurdcck

In deficiency appropriation bill
now before Congress, there is
included an item for four million
dollars for power plant al
Parker Dam and transmission
equipment from that dam to the
Salt River Valley The prospects
seem fair for this appropriation.
II also contains S1OOOOO0 addition
al for Head Gate Dam.
On April II the President was call
ed on for two speeches here, one
for a conference at the Pan-Ameri-
can Union in Washington, the
other at Mt. Vernon. The celebra-
ton at the home of Washington
marked che 150th anniversary of
General Washington's notification
of his election to the Presidency.
Both of these speeches have been
carefully searched for hidden mean
ings, but none of his words of last
Friday have been so widely com
mented on as his farewell exclama-
ton on leaving Warm Springs a
few days ago.
A meeting at the State Depart
ment is scheduled for Monday,
April II, to try 70 reach some
agreement concerning applying
legislation of last session requir-
ing a "a hour stay on the part OF
those who cross the international
line to make purchases. | have
been strongly urged to resist a "a
hour regulation which would force
a stay in Mexico on the part OF
tourists who purchase more than
500 worth of merchandise. This
legislation was demanded for the
Canadian border, an apparently
one state on the Mexican border
favors the "a hour provision.
Congressman Lea's travel bill
may come before the House as
this paper goes to press. Apparent
" it would greatly promote tourists
travel and is regarded by the
Southwest as a meritorious bill.
No equal area on earth can surpass,
o. even equal, Arizona in scenic
attractions. We must let the world
know about these attractions and
increase the tourist travel, thus
making Arizona the nations play
ground.
NV office has received numerous
letters concerning the unemploy-
ment service, proposing or oppos-
ing uniting the two functions
covering unemployment service and
compensation under the Social Sc
curity Board. A bill before Con-
gress this week, S. 1865, has been
modified by agreement and con-
templates leaving this service in
the Labor Department and any
further reorganization up to the
President.
The Whips notice which lies be
fore me for the week ending April
% indicates, among other things,
that II. R. 1925, the Dollar Stabli-
zation Bill, will probably come be
fore the House, and also H. r.
5191, bill dealing with strategic
war materials is scheduled. Both
os these bills are of interest in a
special sense to Arizona. The
Stabilization Bill touches both
gold and silver which Arizona can
furnish when the price is right,
and the strategic minerals bill, if
properly drawn. should promote
the mining of maganese and
tungsten in Arizona.

House Member Threatens
To Fiqht Writer'S Project

Resistance to further appropria-
tions for the Federal Writer'S Prof.
ect of the Works Progress Admins
tration was threatened yesterday by
Representative Keefe, Republican,
of Wisconsin, in the wake of his
charges that communistic writer's
have used the project as an instru-
ment for circulating libel.
Representative Keefe made his
accusation in the House Thursday
during a denial of the assertion in a
w. P. A. guidebook on Washington
that George Washington Parke
Custis, foster son of George Wash
ington and father-in-law of Gen.
Robert E. Lee, had colored daugh-
ter named Maria Syphax.
Contending Maria Syphax was a
daughter of two servants of the
Custis family, Mr.. Keefe declared
that regardless Of whether the al
legation is true or false, the effor.
to publicize the fact more than 100
years after mans passing only
merits reproach and condemnation
Il do not intend to sit by and see
this besmirching effort continued oy
appropriating funds which make it
possible to scatter such libels to the
four corners of the world"
Mr.. Keefe was told that the Sec
ton in question was written by Prof
Sterling Brown of the history staff
Of Howard University.

37th convention that nations willing
agree:
That vessels carrying only food

basis Of immunity as hospital ships

That there be no bombing of civil

anywhere except in the field of act

To protect against barbarities, he

Giant Snow Cruiser
Planned by u. 5. for
Antarctic Expedition
Ickes Reveals Efforts
Being Made to Stort
Trip September 20

BY the Associated Press.
A giant snow cruiser" especially
designed to span yawning crevasses
and jagged ice ridges, may be a
major piece of equipment on the
Governments forthcoming expedi-
ton to the Antarctic continent.
Secretary of Interior Ickes told
reporters yesterday every effort
would be made to start the trip by
September 30, Congress has appro-
priated $4,000 for the expedition
which will make formal claim to q
vast segment of the icy regions lying
east of Little America.
Details of the snow cruiser, which
will rely on tractor treads for mo-
bility, are closely guarded by its de.
signer, DR.. Thomas c. Poulter OF
Chicago. second in command of the
Bryd Antarctic Expedition in 1888
35.
Years Equipment Provided.
His recent testimony before q
House Appropriations Subcommittee
indicated the odd craft could carry
sufficient equipment for an explor.
ing party to last year
On its deck, Dr. Poulter suggested
the machine could carry a Navy
pursuit plane, which, by making
short flights at 300-mile intervals
could explore about 100000 square
miles of unknown territory during
a single Antarctic summer.
Dr.. Poulter is scientific director of
the Research Foundation of Chicago
a corporate organization affiliated
with the Armour Institute of Tech
nology He said the foundation
hoped to finance the vehicles con-
struction, but that plans were still
indefinite.
United States claims to a section
Of the South Pole region are based
on explorations by Rear Admiral
Richard E. Byrd and Lincoln Ellis
worth The former has been mem
toned as the possible leader of the
new expedition, which will make
scientific studies as we'll as plant an
American flag over the claimed ter
ritory.
Other Nations Make Claims.
This Nation is not alone in seeking
to assure itself of share in any
future development of the ice-cov-
cred continent. A German expedi-
ton last spring laid claim to more
than $4,000 square miles of the
Antarctic east of the Weddell Sea
area.
few months earlier Norway as
serted its sovereignty over. a great
portion of the continent, including
part of the German field of work
Great Britain, France and Japan
also have advanced claims to sec
tons of the Antarctic at various
times.
Secretary Ickes. to whom an inter-
departmental committee gave the re-
sponsibility of deciding whether the
expedition shall sail this year, said
at his press conference that Ernest
H. Gruening, in charge of equipping
the party, had expressed doubt that
needed special equipment could be
obtained by September 80. Admiral
Byrd said he believed it could.
The end of September is the dead
line because weather and ice con-
ditions would make it advisable to
wait until next year if the expedl-
ton cannot sail by that date.
