II the newly-purchased bushes
Shrubs, roses, etc. appear at all
dried it is wise to soak them-tops
and roots-overnight in a tub of
water. If planting is to be delayed,
however, they should be healed in,
in the garden, as too much water is
harmful.

The latter precipitated lively discussion relative to merits or demerits of sounding the siren for anything but actual necessities. It all ended harmoniously however,

Gannett Says He'd Drive
BoIsheviks From CAPITAL
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BOSTON, March l3.-Frank Gan
nett, Rochester, N. Y, publisher and
candidate for the Republican presi-
Dental nomination, said last night
that if he were President he would
drive out of Washington every
Bolshevik and pink who doesn t
believe in our form of government
The roads from Washington, he
added, would be so crowded it
would look like Napoleons retreat
from Moscow"
Mr.. Gannett, in an address before
a rally jointly sponsored by the
Mems and Women's Republican
Clubs of Massachusetts, also said
he would favor "a constitutional
amendment limiting the term of
Office of President Roosevelt or any
President to eight years"
He said he would solve the un-
employment problem SO that every
willing worker would have a job
at a fair wage; that he would fire
the present Labor Board at once
and "rewrite or repeal the Wagner
Act"

Third-Term Race
Seen Dependent
On We||es' Report
London Paper Declares
lack of Peace Chance
Will Be Decisive
~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
LONDON, March 13.-While Sum-
ner Welles was winding up his talks
with British leaders today, the Lon
don Daily Mail declared that the
Presidents decision on a third term
depends on Mr.. Welles' report.
IF there were chance of pro-
ducing plan for peace parleys in
Europe and eventually world con-
ference of all nations, President
Roosevelt would be ready to throw
his weight into the balance and then
retire from the White House in
autumn at the end of his second
term" the editorial said.
But should there be no peace
loophole revealed by Mr.. Sumner
Welles' report and the war develops
into fierce European struggle,
President Roosevelt will certainly
run for third term"
The newspaper added that the
American Undersecretary of State,
here after talks in Rome, Berlin and
Paris, had 80 far found no founda-
ton on which the slightest peace
plan could be constructed"
Mr.. Welles talked for an hour to-
day with David Lloyd George, World
War Prime Minister, and had other
appointments with Australian High
Commissioner Stanley M. Bruce,
Laborite James MaXton and Do
minions Secretary Anthony Eden.
He had engagements for luncheon
at the United States Embassy with
Ambassador Joseph P. Kennedy and
his staff and for dinner at No. 10
Downing street, Prime Minister
Chamberlain residence.
Mr.. Welles will leave for home to-
morrow, travelling by way of Rome
where a final conference with
Premier Mussolini is in prospect.

Al first graders of the Job Barnard
Elementary School and when they
left the station, they were just about
unanimous in where they would
spend the rest of their lives-looking
out that little cab as the glistening
rails slip beneath them.
They saw more than engines, how
ever. They "ahed" and "ohed" at
every interesting step that makes up
railroad transportation. Twenty
four of them had never been on a
train before.
They went through a Pullman car
and one little girl tried out an
upper berth. They also toured day
coach.
Does the day coach travel at
night too, teacher?'
They went through a dining car
and everybody got hungry.
I've got penny" one remarked.
Then he was told something about
the prices of food on the train.
They called out "all aboard" a
hundred times and waved at every
thing-incoming trains. outgoing
trains, small electric tractors pulling
loads of baggage and at the Pullman
porters.
They also learned tickets are not
sold on credit but that time tables
are free as the air. 1t was close as

Construction Blaze
Ties Up Traffic

A fire in the sub-basement of the
Lafayette Building. now under con-
struction at Fifteenth and I streets
NV, caused a traffic tie-up in the
area late yesterday
The fire destroyed five wooden
sheds in the basement in which were
stored construction materials. No
estimate of the damage could be OBJ
tanned.
Dense smoke poured from the
building, spreading over nearby
streets. Firemen wore gas masks to
get near the source of the smoke.
Hundreds of home-bound workers
were attracted to the scence and
vehicular traffic was jammed before
police reinforcements could reach
the scene.
