RUS SIAN GOLD IN U. s. NOW

SAN FRANCISCO Eight mil lion dollars worth of Russian gold was unloaded from the So viet anker Batumi and delivered to the United State mint.
 The gold was shipped from VladivoStok in 120 wooden casks. It was transported to the mint under heavy guard.
 The Batumi was delayed sev- eral days on her tranS-Pacific journey when she ran into a typhoon.
 The shipment brought Soviet gold received at the San Fran cisco mint during the past six weeks to 22 million dollars. It is used to build up Russian credits in the United States. The Batumi will carry cargo of oil in her return journey.

Ship Passengers Tell Of Wreck

First-hand accounts of passen- gers who fled the steamship Al aska at night, glfabbing what ever clothes they could find, when the ship ran aground last week near Prince Rupert, B. C., were told in Seattle by surviv- ors.
 One passenger, preparing TOT bed, told of seeing a davenport heading toward her. She grabbed her best dress and ran 10 the deck. Another passenger told of sliding thirty feet across the lounge on a serving tray, in the miShap.
 Hundreds of gallons of fuel oil that foated on the water and covered the rocky shore caused the only mishaps, survivors said.
 Members of the crew of the Northeast said the forward fuel tanks of the Alaska were crack ed open when the ship hit tae rocky shore of Elliott Island, about 20 miles south of Prince Rupert Island at 12:l1 o'clock in the morning.
 The oil also covered the side of the rescue ship and made the life boats slippery to stand in. R. E. Carson, Seattle railroad man f.ll in the water during the rescue.

There Is probably no greater fun
In the world than making over .
house and doing 1t all yourself. BY
this do not mean the restoring Of
some fine old mansion. but the shack
or the barn or the tumbledown farm
house which you may remake your
self.
The urge we all have to "fix up" .
place to live Is rooted too deeply ever
to be destroyed. In spite of the most
luxurious and dignified way Of living,
there are few of us who do not love
tospend part Of every year dressed
In comfortable, baggy overalls, put
tering around q shack In the most
primitive surroundings.
It's amazing how quickly you be-
come accustomed to q simple envi-
ronment and adjust yourself to the
lack of modern improvements. De-
eide first what you must have to
make you happy and what you can
do without and chart your course
accordingly. For instance, I can
forego lot Of things, but I must
have bathing place. The ocean, a
lake, q stream or a water tank will
do, and the merest shelter will serve
me very well.

the windows and invest In q screen
door. Then I'd put up two poles on
the view side" Of my house as sup
port for cross-beams on which I'd
lay freshly cut pine boughs for
shade.
My furniture would be folding
camp chairs and tables made Of bar
rels cut in two with plywood tops.
My curtains would be Of cheesecloth,
couch covers OF India print and
dishes, napkins and tablecloths of
paper. For luxury I would want
plenty Of sheets and pillowcases and
big bath towels, and with the money
that clothes for the fashionable re-
sorts would cost I would buy all the
magazines and books worth reading.
Then I'd string my hammock in the
shade OF two trees and let the world
roll by.
An oil stove or some other simple
heating device would serve for cook
ing light meals, and an outdoor grill
for broiling steaks. But, above all,
I'd do everything as simply as pos
sible and get away from living on q
fixed schedule.

Back Yard in City
Potential Outdoor
Living Room
Removal Of Ugly Fences
And Cooperation in
Planning Needed

The back yard of many homes is
too often just what its name i'm
plies a back yard, a place for the
collection of trash, an unlovely serv-
ice entrance, a neglected stepchild
of the home
Yet in city such as Washington
the back yard is potentially the out
door living room for the family. For
those who live In row houses or
houses so closely placed that there is
only room for a small grass plot
between buildings it is to the rear
Of the home that the family must
look for flowers, cool lawns on which
to sit after hot day and pleasant
vistas from the windows.
OF necessity the front of the home
must be devoted to such dignity as
can be mustered so close to traffic.
Uniformity of planting or, if not
uniformity, consistency is required
and individuality must give way to
order to develop an attractive neigh
borhood picture.
Greater Latitude in Rear.
To the rear of the home, however,
there is greater latitude, yet good
Judgment in cooperative endeavor
can transform the areas behind the
homes into places of great loveliness
and charm.
When neighbors can be neighbors
and not strangers living side by side,
ugly fences can be removed and
grass in long carpets stretch out past
home after home, broken only by
neat walks, flower beds and shade
trees.
In series of articles and sketches.
Margaret NOVEL; will give readers of
The Evening Star examples in trans
formation, examples in which ugly
vistas give way to spots of beauty.
More Spacious Effect.
In discussing today's specific prob
lem, Miss NOVEL; says:
THE success of your garden de-
pends materially on what is on the
other side of the fence. If your
neighbor has chicken houses and ash
cans for a garden decoration it is
UP to you to screen him out if your
back yard is to be garden. On the
other hand if he has apple trees and
Towering shrubs or hedge of hem
lock you may utilize this for back
ground for your own garden and re-
turn the compliment by making your
own premises attractive from his
point of vantage.
This plan illustrates suggestions
for an immediate and inexpensive
solution to both problems.
"A is the garden to be developed.
"B is commercial property with
unsightly sheds which must be
screened
&C is the neighbor with a fine old
apple tree and a small plot Of grass.
BY removal of a board fence between,
and development of plot A, both A
and B secure pleasant view, more
spacious effect of garden and greater
circulation of air"

S766,OOO,O00 New High
For Postal Receipts

BY the Associated Press.
Postal receipts reached an all
time high of S766000,00O in the
fiscal year ended June 30, the Post
Office Department announced last
night. This exceeded receipts for
the year before, the previous high,
by s2O,0oO,o0o.
In a statement accompanying the
announcement. Postmaster General
Farley reported "a net operating
postal surplus for the year of about
s8,00c, 900 with respect to that part
of the postal savings that are rem
dered to the public for hire"
Postal gains were general through
out the country and not confined to
any particular area, Mr.. Farley said.
For the last six years, the Post
Office Department has reported a net
surplus after deducting air mail
subsidies and estimated costs of
handling free mail. Annual gross
expenditures. however, have run
around $45, 100000 in excess of reve-
nues.
Exact figures for the last fiscal
year will not be disclosed Until the
Postmaster General makes. his arl-
nual report to the President next
