Serious Mistake"
Lloyd Rush, who is manager OF

change would be a serious mis-
take"
An Official of RKO-keith's The

would affect the theater very much
but that he was willing to 90 along

The latest proposal, if approved
by the Commissioners and Congress
would produce the following in
teresting changes:
The United States Treasury would
be on Pennsylvania and Vermont
avenues, instead of Fifteenth street

The White House would be bound
ed by Fifteenth and Seventeenth
streets on the east and west instead

dlagonally instead of parallel to the
numbered or lettered streets as the
proposed extension OF Vermont ave-
nue. would.
Others Less Opposed.
The other major change recon-
mended by the planning group about
two weeks ago would extend Con-
necticut avenue along Seventeenth
street from X street to the John
Paul Jones statue. Business people
along this section of Seventeenth
street are much less opposed to the
alteration, as they pointed out such
a change would put them on Con-
nectlcut avenue-a very desirable
address and we'll worth whatever 1t
would cost them to change their
stationery and advertisements.
The ire Of the financial organ
izations along Fifteenth street is
sufficiently aroused to compel the
Bankers Associa ton of Washington
to appoint special committee to
oppose the change. Bruce Baird,
president of the National Savings
& Trust Co., located at Fifteenth
street and New York avenue NV,
was named chairman of the group
and Immediately took the matter
up with the Washington Board OF
Trade. The latter group voted
unanimously Monday to oppose the
proposal.
Such a move said Mr.. Baird.
would be highly prejudicial to us
who are we'll established on the
street. 1t would entail a great ex-
penditure in new stationery and il.
mailing not only for those direct
lv affected but those on contiguous
streets whose addresses would be
changed from the 1900 block OF
whatever street they were on tc
some number in the l400s."
Called "Frightful Mistake"
Edison B. Olds, president of the
Washington Stock Exchange and q
partner of Brown, Goodwin &
Olds in the American Security
Building, agreed and added:
1T would be a frightful mistake
1t doesn't seem that the change is
justified enough to offset the diff

Wallace Warns Labor
Against Following
Selfish Leaders
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 3,-Vice
President Wallace declared today
that workers and farmers must
never knuckle under to any set of
leaders who put self first and the
human race second"
THE duty of farmers and workers
to themselves" was one of "six
duties he asserted American citizens
of the producing groups owe to
themselves and their country.
In speech to the annual conven-
tion OF the Congress of Industrial
Organizations here Mr.. Wallace
listed the other duties as: To the
country itself, to the consumer, to
the fighting men overseas, to capital,
which should be fairly treated" and
to the white collar worker who
must not become the forgotten
man"
Calling for unity of citizens under
wise Government leadership" the
Vice President said If labor and
agriculture fight each other and
their Government, there is no
hope"
Labor" he said, still has its enc
mics. Any man who continually ex-
presses his love for labor, but broad
casts labor's shortcomings while he
praises every other group in Amer
lea, Is labor's enemy.
Fortunately, there are many in
America who are labor's friends.
There are people outside the ranks
Of labor who know that no nation
prospers unless men and women are
fully employed There are farmers
who know that farmers cannot pros
per unless labor prospers. There are
men on newspapers. in colleges. in
Congress and on the fighting fronts
who appreciate your basic aims and
aspirations.
There is Franklin Delano Roose-
welt. These people are your friends. .
Mr.. Wallace praised the splendid
work he said is being carried out
by Sidney Hillman, CIO leader,
under which labor unions are united
Tor expression at the ballot box" He
called that "a fine example of a
workers duty being well done"

President Hides Facts
By Using Statistical
Mirages,' House Told
"A. P. Wirephoto.
BY the Associated Press

Is tHe hSsoSldCeC FIebS.
representative Mason. Repub-
lican, of Illinois, told the House
yesterday President Roosevelt and
administration officials are using
statistical mirages' to hide un-
pleasant facts.
The statistical mirage" he said,
''is an invention of New Deal bu-
reaucrats to add further to the
confusion of the Congress and the
people Of the Nation by making it
exceedingly difficult, If not impos-
sible, for congressional investiga tors
to get the facts.
This Is a sad state of affairs
which indicates lack of intellectual
honesty on the part of this admin
istration. There was time when
the American people who read Gov
eminent statistics knew they were
reading as near the truth as COM
petent honest officials could deter
mine 1t, but that is not true today"
Mr.. Mason said he was making
his speech in connection with two
recent messages to Congress by the
FfeSlQeNI-One on tne nOmDe or
men in Government service who
had been exempted from the draft
and the second on the necessity for
paying food subsidies.
Each of these messages con-
tanned such quantity Of statistics
that they confused the mind and
tended to obscure the essential facts
in connection with these subjects"
/ Mr. Mason declared that when
Prentiss Brown resigned recently as
price administrator he cited sta
tistics to show prices had been
brought under control. while. in Just
a few days the statistics in report
by Secretary of Labor Perkins
showed general increase in living
costs"

BY the Associated Pres

ment in 1910 to pending

ing that Mr. Comfort received
$4,000 Of the pool.
Il understand that he (Mr. Com
fort is member of high-class

Other Payments Cited.
Mr. Grant has quoted the SEC re-
port as saying that in addition to
the $4,000, another $3.50 went to
the New York law firm of Olvany,
EiSner & Donnelly, and $4,000 to its
Washington representative, William
Jameson, former Representative
from Iowa.
Mr., Work said BrewsterS share of
the pool was paid to the New York
law firm. then BreWster'S legal rep

Mr. Jameson and MI. Comfort.
Mr.. Grant has quoted the SEC
report as saying that four air
craft companies - Brewster. Curtiss
Wright, Lockheed and Consolidated
agreed to pay their pro rata
share OF the pool if the amendment
could be obtained Consolidated tele-
graphed the committee yesterday
that it never had contributed to the
pool.
Amendment Approved.
The amendment subsequently writ
ten into the revenue act, was
designed to allow such companies as
Brewster to use advance payments
on uncompleted contracts as working
capital and to use them in comput-
Ing their base for determination of
excess profits taxes.

Funds Of Big Banks Lieutenant Colonel Cadet Rank
In Argentina Reported Is Held by Girl at Central
Ry the Associated Press,


ONTEVIDEO Nov. 3.-The
United States Treasury was reported
authoritatively here last night to
have frozen funds of two of Argen-
tina's biggest banks-El Banco de
La Nacion and El Banco de La
Provincial de BuenoS AireS-aS war
measure.
The banking institutions have been
known as government banks, al
though both have engaged in COM
mercial business
A financial source said no specific
reason for the action was given. In
the past, however. the United States
Treasury has taken similar measures
against banks known to be doing
business with black listed firms and
enemy nations.
Relations With Axis Continue.
Argentina has not severed rela-
tions with the Axis.
In Washington, State Depart
had been taken In Argentina as
yet. but added that it was highly
possible in the near future A
spokesman said it was unwise
for the United States Government
to affirm or deny rumors of such
action, since those rumors had
originated in ArgentinaD
Such an order from the Treasury
would mean that both were barred
from dealing in dollar credits and
that their funds. accounts and
property in the United States could
not be sold transferred or used in
any way except under license from
the Treasury.
The effect OF such an order would
be to practically eliminate both
banks from foreign exchange busi-
ness, since nearly all inter American
trade is financed in dollars now.
Largest Bank in Country.
El Banco de La Nacion. Argen-
tinas largest has an authorized
capital of about 1854 100000 pesos
SAL $50 900 Fl Banco de La Pro-
vincia de Buenos Aires has a capital
of l25 000,0 pesos.
The entire stock Of the former is
owned by the government, while the
Buenos Aires provincial government
owns half Of the stock of the latter,
private citizens owning the rest. .se9
The informant said both banks
had advised all of their branches OF
the reported action.
Financial circles said the Treasury
previously had taken steps to freeze
the funds of certain Argentine in
dlviduals and firms and that the
blocking OF the funds of the two
large banks had been anticipated

NO INFLUENZA EPIDEMIC

The great influenza epidemic which
swept through the United States during the
First World War killed ten times as many
Americans as did the enemy.
Consequently, one can understand the
relief of health officials who have conclud-
ed that there is no present danger of sim
liar outbreak
'nia Health officials believe that the sulfa
drug Wall help to cut the death toll in any
outbreak Moreover, they say that an in
creasing tendency on the part of victims
to go to bed when attacked by the flu germ
is an important factor in combating the
disease.
For the benefit of readers who may
have touch of flu in the next few
months, we call attention to the statement
of health officials that persons who try
to keep on their feet and stick it out are the
greatest contributors to death rolls. They
are walking store-houses of infection and
frequently succumb because of their un-
warranted exertion'
