ByD. {. Opposed by
Citizens Association
Columbia Heights Unit
Hears Bondy Recommend
Public Welfare knowledge

Opposition to a proposal to tax
District residents for the mainte-
nance of the Gravelly Point airport
was voiced last night by the Colum-
bia Heights Citizens Association at
meeting held in the Mount Pleas
ant Congregational Church.
Frank Hoffman, chairman of the

a Federal project. should not be
maintained through taxes levied on
residents of either the District or
Virginia.
Robert E. Bondy, executive secre-
tary of the District Board of Pub
lie Welfare, addressed the group, re-
porting on the work done and prog
ress achieved by the Public Welfare
Board.
Urges an Informed Citizenry.
Declaring that public welfare is
the first concern of government"
Mr.. Bondy said the Capitals citizens
should be more widely informed on
the increasingly efficient work of
the Welfare Board and should APP
preciate how their tax money is be-
ing spent in this field.
George H. Brown, vice president
of the association and chairman of
its Public Safety Committee, report
ed on traffic conditions in the con-
gested area of upper Fourteenth
street NV. between Columbia and
Park roads. A resolution was passed
asking that pedestrian control sig
mails be placed at these two inter-
sections on Fourteenth street. The
parking situation in that area was
discussed, and a letter to the Com
missioners was authorized asking
that Government-operated park
ing center be built.
DriscOll Speaks.
A. j. Driscon. president of the
Midcity Citizens Association, spoke
briefly on the work Of the Draft
Boards Advisory Councils to assist
registrantS with their missionaries.
Mr.. Driscoll is chairman of draft
area 2.
DR.. A. V. Smith, chairman of the
associations Committee on Educa-
ton and Schools, reported that work
on the recreation center at Powell
Junior High School was practically
at standstill and asked that a
letter be sent to the Commissioners
demanding progress on, this project.
Fourteen new members were ad-
mitted to the association: Frederick

TUSCALOOSA, Ala, Nov. O.
Edward Devlin, who talked con-
tinuously for Sc hours and is min
uteS in a campaign speech for
President Roosevelt, awoke refreshed
by IL hours sleep last night and
began listening to radio returns on
the election.
Friends said the 19-year-old uni
versity of Alabama student, who
began talking at 1915 pm. Satur-
day and stopped at $50 o'clock yes
terday morning was suffering only
natural fatigue and had no fever.
AS his marathon speed ended
yesterday Devlin said in a cracked
whisper: IF it has helped Roosevelt
any, I'm satisfied"
The student, whose home is in
Atlantic City, said he launched into
the endurance talk because he felt
Democratic campaign workers were
too confident"

workers must be between 1e and 25, unemployed and out-of-school and citizens of the United States. All IVA projects are carried on in CO., operation with local governmental agencies and are designed to provide the worker with useful employment experience and small monthly ir1-. come.
 IVA ofiice files contain many re. cent examples of young people who secured private jobs because of tho experience provided by IVA work assignments. The state admins. trator cited as an instance, the case of a young men who was recently employed by a large oil concern as an ofi1ce statistician. being selected from among 200 applicants, because of the practical statistical and drafting experience that he had re-. ceived on an IVA project operating III government experimental sta- tion. Other similar examples includ. ed: youth employed in various manufacturing concerns, who had found MA sheet metal shop experi- ence instrumental in securing em. ployment; boys hired by sigu-mak- ing concerns and both young men and women securing clerical post. tiolls as result of working on cler. ical projects throughout the state.
 It was also emphasized that be. sides providing useful work exper1- ence, MA work projects are pro- ducing goods and services of consid- erable value to- numerous public and semi-public agencies, which are serving the state and local comInu- mites. ..... ~. ...s ..@,

420 youth workers left IVA proj- ects for private employment during the months of November and De- cember, 1t was announced today by Richard A. Barrett, state admins trator. This figure represents ap- proximately 13 per cent of the pres- ent employment and brings the to- tai of those leaving the IVA for outside jobs, during the year 1889, to l,953 individuals; which is to be compared to an average working force of 2,344 youth. IVA officials stated that many of those securing private jobs did so as a direct result of work experience secured while working on the projects.
 In making public these figures, Mir. Barrett pointed out that the WAS work program for out-of- school youth is now operating a to- tai of l24 work projects in 51 towns of the state with a current employ ment load of 3,250. This increase over last year was made possible by a larger appropriation made at the last session of Congress. Youth

TIT. s. stamp designers of 1909 V" crarnmed just about all they could get into the Hudson-Fulto 2-cent commemorative stamp above, celebrating the tercente- nary of the discovery of the Hud- son river and the tooth anni- versary of its first navigation by steam. The design shows the Half ~ Moon" sailing upstream and Fulton's "Clermont" chug- l ging in the opposite direction. Indians in canoes complete the cycle of river transportation.
 Philatelists are petitioning the l U. S. Postoffice Department for issue of a special stamp to com. memorate the centenary of the ad- hesive postage stamp, for release May 6, 1940.
 Two cities are hotly contesting the right to place the Washington Irving stamp of the U. s. Famous Americans series on hrst-day sale. Irvington, N. r., claims the hono, as the birthplace of the author. But Tarrytown. N. Y, asserts tha, Irving did most of his writing there, and that the first-day sale; should belong to Tarrytown. Tht final decision rests with the Post office Department.

thought to that He had no con-

now He couldn't have said wheth-
er the time was 6 o'clock or 8
o'clock, or 9. Actually it was $3.50
time for 1.-The Wit to Woo" to
begin-and most of the cast had
assembled at the tent dressing
room, ready to go on. But all the
principals were missing.
Nearly 10 minutes had passed
before Jeremy walked slowly
downstairs and came onto Gayle
again. She was near the side door
way and she was sobbing-and she
was leaning on Bill Bailey's Shout
der and being held tightly in Bills
arms. AS if he were a man in a
trance, Jeremy came up to them.
"All right, Tucker!" Bill began
firmly. You said or did something
that made this girl cry, and you
can't get away with that. I don't
know exactly what the score is
between us, but I'm telling y o
here and now that I'm in love
with Gayle Dixon, and hereafter
it's a man-to-man fight. You un-
derstand that? I mean what I
said. You and your whole con-
founded fortune can't stop me, nor
anything else if Gayle will give
me a chance! I'm chucking this
job. I don't want but n thing in
life-a chance to win you, Gayle
and somewhere else I can get
interesting work that isn't as
hair-brained as this. If Tucker here
has insulted you Or"
Bill" Gayle looked Up.
II mean it! l mean it's going TO

Gayle, because I don't like to play
dirt on any man. I won't yet.
But I'm serving notice. The only
person who can stop me is you,
Gayle, and you're going to have
a hard time"
Bill" She had stopped sobbing,
and she grabbed his big shoulders
to shake him, her pretty face tear
touched and drawn in what surely
was combined pleasure and pain.
But he was not looking at her. He

But Gayle turned gu ly and in
an instant was running out Of the

The talk between grandfather
and grandson was brief, but sig
nificant. Mr.. Merrifield was al
most b~oisterous for a moment;
His plan had worked! His plan
to bring Jeremy Tucker out OF the
mental and social doldrums. 1t
had worked better than he had
dared hope, really. With his own
ears he had CHANGED to hear Jer-
envy propose marriage to Gayle,
and he felt that Gayle was as
nearly perfect as a young woman
could be. The eccentric old fellow
simply never gave thought to
Gayle's own possible reactions in
the matter.

you sort of took her by surprise.
That is all. Now go on out there
in the hall-you'n find her in tears,
likely as not. Women are emo
tional creatures, Jeremy. Be gen.
tie with her, and kind. We men
never understand 'em. But you
just go on out there and put your
arm around her and bring her
back in here. I'll congratulate her,
and then I'll get out and let you
two have a talk alone!"
He ended in a chuckle, not even
noticing the distress on Jeremy's
face. Jeremy could say nothing,
but he did move to follow his
grandfather's instructions. Go
bring Gayle back. That's right
that would be the thing to do. Go
find Gayle. He had proposed mar
riage to Gayle and she had fled.
He must go find her. The old man,
still chuckling delightedly, h d
stopped over to turn on his desk

the door.
In the Railways he did not see
Gayle as he expected. Nor was
she in any of the other large rooms
on this floor. He looked and he
called her gently, moving slowly
from place to place. Out the win

|Kneesi Cub, Cards Remain Tied
For City Loop Junior Lead as
IG0uzz0 Rules Out Protests

Vic Guazza, president of the
National City League, today turned
thumbs down on couple of pro-
tests aimed at the Kneesi Cubs
thereby keeping them in a tie with
Cardinal A. c. for the junior division
lead.
One decision hinged on ground
srules and another on the time limit
of two hours, which necessarily af-
fects all junior games. Juniors have
the Ellipse fields from to O'Clock
and must quit at that hour, when
unlimited teams take over. A dis
pute over whether a game was a
minute short of the time allowed
or couple over was bound to come
but Gauzza, after sitting all the
evidence, couldn't allow the protest
His first decision concerned last
Sundays game in which Kneesi
turned back Uline Ice, 5-2. Ropes
to prevent spectators from surging
on the playing field had been re-
moved over July and were not
replaced and Umpire Howard Steele
was obliged to put ground rules in
effect. Any foul fly would be play
able, he ruled. With ropes in place
only fouls inside are playable.
Ground Rule Decides.
Manager Eddie Ahern of Uline
wrote that his brother, Joe, hit a
high foul back of where the ropes
would be which was caught by
Ralph Calisto, catcher and manager
of the Cubs. Steele called him out
