Zonine Commission
Approves Rule to Ease
D. 6. Truffic Problem

Effective September 8, any
private dwelling, hotel, apart
ment or other residential Struc-
ture to be erected in the District
must be provided with off-street
automobile parking space, under
terms of new regulations adopted
yesterday by the District Zoning
Commission.
Unless such provisions are made
building permits will be denied or
the use of the structures for resi-
Dental purposes will be banned
under the commissions orders
which are designed to lessen Wash
ington's traffic problems in the
future.
Amendment of the zoning regula-
tions to this effect, in one form or
another, has been under study for
several years and drafts of the new
rules were considered at public
hearing last Wednesday. There
was no opposition. Adoption was
recommended by spokesmen for the
Federation of Citizens Associations
and the National Capital Park and
Planning Commission.
Areas Fixed by Formulas.
The amount of parking space re-
quired is governed by various
formulas
In the case of a single family
private dwelling, the parking space
must be not less than $50 square
feet in area and on the same lot
as the dwelling.
For apartment houses, fats and
tenements, the required amount OF
parking space is determined accord
ing to the percentage of the lot
which may be occupied by the
building, under the zoning regula-
tions. If the building is in an "a
area district, there must be one
parking space for each two dwelling
units in the building.
If in a "B" area district, there
must be at least one parking space
for every three dwelling units; il
in the &C" area districts, one for
every four dwelling units, and if in

10 Nazi Vessels
Sunk by Planes,
Russians Claim
Three Conveys, BoItic
Bose Are Attacked:
9 Transports in List
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MOSCOW, June Elm a sud-
den eruption of warfare in the
Baltic, Stormovik dive bombers
of the Soviet feet air arm have
sunk 10 German vessels, 9 of
them transports, in assaults on
three conveys and on a Nazi
naval base, the Moscow radio an
nounced tonight.
Seven of the enemy vessels were
reported sent to the bottom in at
tacks on one convoy and the naval
base, and the three others were re-
ported sunk in a second convoy
while a third convoy was declared
scattered in an earlier operation.
The radio announcement said fur
ther that an ammunition dump was
blown up and anti-aircraft batteries
knocked out at the undiScloSed
naval base.
Sparring continued on the long
land front from the Baltic to the
Black Sea throughout yesterday, the
regular midnight Soviet communi-
que reporting local engagements in
many sectors along with a quicken
ing of reconnaissance and air ac-
tiyity.
Three Battalions Repulsed.
Three German battalionS, sup
ported by 35 tanks, were repulsed
in one sector of tfe German-Rus-
sian front with losses of about 500
killed and 16 tanks destroyed, dis
patches from the battle area said
today.
Only minor encounters were re-
ported on the Kalinin front, north
west of Moscow, and on the south
western and southern fronts.
The Soviet Information Bureau
said Germany's central front army
has lost several hundred infantry
men, killed or wounded, and eight
tanks in one assault on Red Army
forces operating behind German
lines.
Russian flyers were credited with
downing two German planes by ram
ming
100-Man Garrison Wiped Out.
A communiQue said Red Army
scouts wiped out a 100-man garrison
on the Kalinin front, while guer-
rillas killed $50 Germans by derail-
ing a troop train. They also were
credited with raid on big railway
station and the destruction of an
ammunition dump and 1900 yards
of track.
The big scale German naval ac-
tivity in the Baltic followed Stock
holm reports Friday that the Ger
mans were moving flat-bottomed in
vasion boats through the Kiel Canal
to the Baltic
These invasion craft were massed
in great numbers along the Dutch,
Belgian and French coasts in the
summer and fall of 1910, apparently
for an invasion attempt-which
never came off-against the British
Isles.
Among the possibilities suggested
by their transfer to the Baltic was
that Hitler might now be planning
a sea-borne thrust to knock out
Leningrad, Russia's second city,
which has withsteod siege by his
land forces for almost a year. .
There also have been suggestions
that Germany might try 1912 in
vasion of Sweden, particularly if
the United Nations move into Nor
way.

N. Y. Industriul
Accidents Jump

Albany, n. y. ULNS).-Increases IN
employment are causing a considerable
rise in the number of Industrial acci-
dents, Industrial Commissioner Frieda
S. Miller reports.
\ preliminary tabulation covering
the first 6 months of the year shows
that 81, 122 compensated accident cases
We're closed during the period This
total is nearly 10000 higher than that
for the first half of 1911 and repre-
Sents an increase of more than 20 per
cent.
The increase in number of induSt-
trial injuries was particularly notice
able in areas with defense work, espe
cially in the metals manufacturing
centers. In the Buffalo area, which has
large steel mills and airplane factories,
compensated accidents rose 36 per cent
i'm the first half of 1912 compared with
the same period in 1911. In the SYRIA
cuse and Rochester districts the in
crease amounted to about 26 per cent
while in the Albany area it was some
what less than 20 per cent.
Most of the present rise in number
of industrial injuries has occurred in
manufacturing although all industry
groups registered some increase. The
rise in factory accidents was over 40
per cent while in On-manufacturing
industries it was about 10 per cent.
This half years cases included 36S
compensated deaths and 5O,754 com
pensated .non-fatal injuries. The mum
of non-fatal injuries, namely tempor-
AIRY and permanent partial disabili-
ties, has gone up considerably but, So
far, no appreciable increase appears
in number of compensated death cases.

But the editorial continues, 'thc

think that it's up to the consumers of
this country to see tlEit it's started.
1--WE say it's up to consumers be-
cause we doubt that the government,
though it knows the need, is ready TO
ask us to eat less in order to feed
foreign people thousands of miles
away some time in the future. The
people themselves must take the lead
and show the government that we
recognize the need. and are willing To
do something about it.
The American people are generous.
They will gladly accept necessary
sacrifice, once they are brought to full
realization of the situation. We think
they would gladly submit to rationing

could be stored.

What Are We
Living For?
BY RUTH TAYLOR

ITS not what you would die for
it's what you're living for that
counts" :"
He wasn't much more than eighteen,
and he didn't look that old, but rather
like "A schoolboy dressed up in sailors
lines was very serious as he tried to
make clear what he believed.
I'm not going out to die for Eng
land" he said, though I'm not afraid
of death. I'm going out to fight to live
for my mother, and home, and a
country where she can live in COM
fort and security. That's what I'm
living for, and that's what really
counts"
It's what we're living for that counts
today. To talk of dying is very heroic
but it belongs in the days of slow mo-
tiOn battlefields where enemy faced
enemy according to the rules of war
fare. Today our battletields are every
where-Our enemy is unseen until he
swoops down from the clouds or rises
up from the depths of the seas. Death
turks in many places and under many
guiSes But it is not what we would
die for but what we live for that
counts.
What are we living for? 1t is the
vision upon which this nation was
founded, Il union of free men who live
for the great and limitless dream of
freedom for all; This is the creed Of
democracy. This is the spirit of the
republic. This is the reason why we
known to the dictator ridden cOun-
tries
We are living for our homes, our
families, our rights as free men to
speak the truth as we see it, to work
at the job we want to do. to agree or
dissent as citizens without fear of con-
sequences, to earn for our children Il
better way of life in better world,
and to worship God according to the
dictates of our own consciences.
We are living for the ideal that the
four freedoms - of speech, expression
and of worship, freedom from want
and from fear may be extended to all
peoples of all the world.
What are we living for? The Secre-
tary of State expressed it thus, in
stating our war aims. 1--WE have al
ways believed-and we believe today,
that all peoples, without distinction of
race, color or religion, who are pre-
pared and willing to accept the re-
spOnsibilities of liberty, are entitled
to its enjoyment. We have always
sought - and we seek today to en-
courage and aid all who aspire to
freedom to establish their right to it
by preparing themselves to assume its
obligations"
This is what we are living for-and
it is what we as individuals and as a
people are living for that will count
in the final victory!

production as against the round sag
ger, but the weight of the big sagger
makes working them a real hardship
| to the kilnmen.
The heavy sagger was one of the
Objectionable factors debated at the
special meeting in the brotherhood
hall last Saturday evening. This meet
ing was called by President Duffy and
representatives from china shops in
Wheeling, Grafton, Clarksburg and
Bedford We're present and explained
the difference between bona tile china
placing conditions as against general
ware placing.
This special session was the out
growth Of other meetings of No. 9 in
which the chinaware placing situation
has been discussed. 1t all started with
| the Introduction of Il hotel china body
| by several firms that have in the past
manufactured only generalware These
manufacturers have spent large sums
to develop china bodies and have
recognized the china scales i'm the clay
shop, but they have made no provision
for chinaware in the kilnShed
| The dissatisfaction among the kiln
men resulted i'm much bitter and some
time hot resentment against the unfair
attitude of the firms involved, who de-
manded that the thick heavy china
ware be placed in 9-hole saggers. \
protest was made to Headquarters ard
| f.,,
with the manufacturers. The outcome
of this conference was not, and is not
acceptable to the kilnmen who want
and demand the same saggers as the
reputable china shops-and not saggcr
conditions based on shops whose prod
uct is often described as Thirds and
Lump.
Going back to 1888 in his remarks,
President Duffy cited the protests of
| the chinaware manufacturers when
| the New Cumberland Pottery which
was then manufacturing generalware
was changing over to chinaware. He
told of the protests made by the china
ware manufacturers upon learning Of
the New Cumberland firms switch and
of the unfair competition that would
result if they We're permitted to manu-
facture chinaware under gencralware
prices and conditions.
The 1888 wage conference made it
clear that going from one class of
ware TO another, without meeting the
required specifications would not only
offer competition, but would create Il
real hardship ON the employees. When
you are asked TO place chinaware In
generalware saggers, and pin them
solid as some of our plants are doing
here today, how long will it be before
the workers in the chinaware branch
of the industry are forced to meet
conditions as set up i'm this district?
We are not trying to tell the Manu-
facturerS what kind of ware they may
make, or whether they may switch
from one class Of ware to another
but we do insist and maintain, that
any plant making chinaware today
must conform to the existing Specitica-
! tionS as called for in our agreement aS
to prices and working conditions.
