D. {. Subway Study
Resolution Is Sent

| Glenn Dole and Tire
| Felony Measures Also
| Are Forwarded

The House today completed legisla-
tive action on resolution directing
the Commissioners to make pre-
liminary study to determine the
feasibility" of a subway system in
the District for both rail and We
hicular traffic and sent it to Presi-
dent Roosevelt for his signature.
Action also was completed on two
other District measures and they viii
accompany the subway survey res
olution to the White House.
One would make the theft of tires
tubes, batteries. gasoline and other
automobile accessories a felony dur
ing the war, punishable by maxi
mum penalty Of three years impris'
onment.
The other authorizes the Com
missioners to grant charitable OF
n-proflt-making organization au-
thority to operate canteen in the
District tuberculosis Sanitoria at
Glenn Dale, Md.
The subway investigation resolu-
tion, sponsored by Representative
D'Alesandro, Democrat, of Mary
land, was adopted by the House
several months ago, but was re-
turned for concurrence in Senate
change. AS originally approved by
the House the resolution directed
that the survey be made jointly
by the Commissioners and the Pub
lie Utilities Commission. The Sen
ate. however, excused the P. U. c.
from participating in the job and
the House approved this change.
During a brief debate on the res
olution Representative Rich, Repub-
ican, Of Pennsylvania expressed
hope construction of an elevated
highway over K street from Rock
Creek Park to Key Bridge would
wait until the investigation is COM
pleted. He pointed out that traffic
should be placed underground and

I'VE didn't wait for some one to
give us the money-we went out and
did the job ourselves"
These words of Mrs. Kathryne M.
Bricker, principal Of the Somerset
CMd) elementary school, just about
sum up the attitude Of parents in
the area who grew tired of attempt
ing to pry funds from Montgomery
County officials to convert the eight
classroom school into an AFRAID
shelter.
That is why each Sunday you will
find from 6 to Is fathers, business
and professional men during the
week, turned lumberjacks. They are
busy splitting logs on the school
playground and erecting stout bar
ricades at all the windows of the
school basement which Is to be con-
verted into a shelter for the 230
pupils.
1--WE couldn't get the bags to fill
with sand, and lumber was too
high" explained Capt. Charles
Parsons, U. S. N, retired, moving
spirit in the project to make Somer-
set school the model raid shelter.
800 Trees Chopped Down.
So parents got together and
located trees on the property Of
several Of the residents. Thus far
they have chopped down 300 trees,
had them hauled to the playground
and split them into required lengths
for barricading nine windows.
Among the parents gladly giving
up their Sundays to become con-
struction workers under Capt. Par
sons guidance are w. j. Duiker,
president of the school PIT. A.; L.
w. Orr, j. B. Kingsbury, c. Riley,
w. H. Bainbridge, F. A. Genau, S.
H. Simon, John r. Riggleman, c. M.
Steuart, Walton Onslow, Edgar Tur-
lington, George A. Pugh and Gus
tave Burmeister.
The wooden barricades are a big
job-they have erected two SO far
but it isn't the whole story Of a
concentrated community effort
which has brought results.
There were buckets, stirrup pumps,
shovels, first-aid equipment and
emergency rations to be procured
too. All that, however, required
funds which weren't forthcoming
from any defense agency. The
Somerset Parent-Teacher Associa-
ton got together and from proceeds
of a Christmas bazaar and collection
Of old newspapers managed to scrape
up 5000.
Rations Are Stored.
As q result each classroom Is
equipped with a bucket of sand and
shovel for combating incendiary
bombs. There are garden hose and
stirrup pumps, a f1rst-aid corner
and sufficient supplies of canned
milk, fruit and vegetable juices and
crackers for all children three times
around.
Capt. Parsons, Mr.. Simons, a
retired school equipment designer
who has a granddaughter attend
ing the school, and the colored
janitor made burlap and wire-cov-
cred screens for the interior of all
basement windows. these to prevent
scattering Of glass from bomb con-

of new listeners in America. II
Hitler's new order is STOPPING
to such chicanery and low tricks,
that is reason enough for this
country to be at war with him
and his followers.
One shoulders at the thought
of the whole world dropping to
a point where the ether waves
would be polluted by radio fea-
lures such as Hitler evidently
is sponsoring from his hub OF
iniquity - Berlin.
The Nazis may gain new lis
tenerS on this side of the At
lantic by these programs but
they will become listeners con-
WINGED that the world is on the
toboggan unless Hitler and his
gang are done away with for
good. The English express it
this way: We must move from
this depressing tunnel we are
in to clean, open air.
AS the wal goes on in Europe
it is noticeable that the most
ruthless and villainous men are
being put into power in Nazi
war machine. They are toying
with the valves on the pois-
onous gas containers with the
thought that they will resort to
this inhumane method of war
fare when they realize they are
on the way to collapse.
They ire just like Red Skel-
tons bad boy; they will do it
even if they get a whipping. The
world will not move from this
depressing tunnel" until the
not-to-be-trusted followers of
Hirohito, the back-stabberS OF
Mussolini and the murder-the-
innocents gang of Hitler are
whipped.
And they will not only be
whipped but suffer the most
humiliating defeat ever known
because, as Joe Louis, the cham
pion says: I'VE are on Gods
side"

last Saturday evening picked up

be an interview with some Am

Never have I heard so much
profanity coming over a radio
station. And there also were a
number of degrading remarks
about women. I am sure that
an American, Canadian or Brit

be cut off the air pronto.

Another influence was the in
creasing interest displayed by the
Army in Eskimo manufactured
clothing. All types of Arctic wear,
including reindeer skin socks,
pants, parkas and mukluks were
sold to the Army although the de-
mand was so great that the natives
were unable to produce enough. The
