Sinahquismo, which, it is said, the Falange is trying to influence. A certain Wariness toward our own country still exists, but most of the people with whom he talked were convinced of our sincerity, especially after President Roose- velt's visit to Mexico. He found curious, sometimes almost fanat- ical desire for education among Indians who would not be ex- pected to feel it, and a general belief in the good intentions of Mexico'S own government.
 These, and more. But for me the particular joy of the book was the incredible beauty of ordinary Mexican speech as reported by Mir Rosa. ''How broad is the shadow of generosity" remarks a man, and a peasant woman cas- ually explains that Hove sees only rose without thorns, but wait How long does she suppose that the opening flower can hold its bloom?"

MEXICO SPEAKS, by Guide
 Ross John Day: S3)

It is not simple matter to translate both Mexican life and the Mexican spirit of today into terms that will be understandable in the United States. The Mexicans I am told, resent bitterly our pat ronizing emphasis on the pie turesque features of their life, preferring that we see instead the progress being made. z z
 But perhaps by combining the two approaches Guido Rosa S Mexico Speaks" may please both countries; certainly it is a book of importance MT. Rosa is not a long time resident of Mexico, nor does he pretend to have cyclo- pedic knowledge. But he has seen a good deal and he has sympathy. His story of some months wan dering with the help of Juan and a feeble Chevrolet held together with baling wire is a delight.
 He wandered from coast to coast and during frequent periods of repair for the car, he took a null titude of side trips by bus and train and afoot. His Spanish was good enongh to allow conversa- ton, and on the trip he did not take notes in front of people, some thing that had proved disastrous on other Mexican journeys. Fin ally, he carried a camera and used it as well.

NEW YORK-They've got new kind of poll out now which asks things like what kind of bed room manners have you got and do you go out on weekend bend CTS and if so what time do you reel in?
 It's called Family Behavior, At titudes and Possessions" put out by the John B. Pierce Foundation, a research organization, and is ded icated to the proposition that you ought to design a house for the way you are going to live in it.
 So the researchers found 65 families in apartments, and 66 more in houses who didn't mind answering questions like are you the kind of cluck who locks the bathroom door and then reads all the Sunday supplements. or when was the last time you had snack of sardine salad and onion juice frappe in bed?
 In the privacy of the boudoir, fhe research organization finds 50 per cent of the husbands and 40 per cent of the wives roll over and po sri pbt tO S1aap
 TwentytWo per cent of the hus- bands read abed, but this doesn't bother the little women because 29 per cent of them have the same habit.
 Twelve per cent of the hus- bands just talk, but some of them must run on like a phonograph and never let the ever-loving get a word in, because only II per cent of the wives say they do any talking.
 Only 3 per cent of the men say their praySrs, and they ought to be ashamed of themselves because per cent of the women do.
 Three per cent of the wives think in bed, but none of the men report any cerebral activity
 Two per cent of both the hus- bands and the wives smoke in bed and 2 per cent of the men have snacks in bed, which is all right with per cent of the wives be- cause they do too.
 The little woman, who averages getting to bed at Ills D. m. week days (seven minutes ahead of her spouse) often keeps the same late weekend hours, proving she won't let the old man out of her sight.

opportunity Monday to outline their
ideas as to the District budget for

nounced by Chairman Coffee Of the
House District Appropriations Sub
committee. If necessary, a second
dav will be granted for them.
The end of the parade of officials
testifying on items in the SGT, ,000. 600
budget was expected to be reached
by tonight with the needs of the
Washington aqueduct, the militia,
National Capital Parks and the Ma
tional Capital Park and Planning
Commission scheduled for attention.
During the afternoon also, Welfare
Director Ray L. Huff was to be re-
called for examination on COM
plants made recently by Controller
General Lindsay c. Warren and his
replies.
After the transcript of the hear
tags Is printed, the subcommittee
will mark up the District appropria-
ton bill later next week, Mr.. Coffee
said, and the measure may be ready
for submission to the full Appro-
priations Committee and to the
House the following week.
Sewer Officials Criticized.
Sewer Department officials were
criticized yesterday for having Ship
ped hve-year supply of sludge from
the District sewage treatment plant
to the Occoquan Workhouse for use
as fertilizer. The report of Con-
troller General Warren protested
the amount was so large it consti-
tuted health menace"
1t was brought out, Mr.. Coffee
reported, that the railroad trans
portation of the material has been
costing the District about $4,000 a
year and that the fertilizer was sent
there because no other place for it
had been found. In some later esti-
mates, District officials said they
would seek an appropriation of be-
tween $500, 900 and $500,000 for in
stallation OF dehydration system to
lessen the weight of the material,
so as to make its transportation
more economical. Elwood Johnson,
sewer engineer, was admonished to
find other outlets for the material.
Stefan Makes Protest.
Representative Stefan, Repub-
l1can, OF Nebraska, ranking minority
member of the subcommittee, pro-
tested that it was unfair to District
taxpayers to permit the Navy to
obtain free the sewer gas developed
in the sewage treatment plant oper-
alton, for use at the Bellevue hous-
ing development, for heating pur-
poses. Mr.. Stefan was told the
average quantities produced had a
value of about SIS day.
Mr.. johnson was admonished to
follow the example of the District
Refuse Division in the sale of SAL
vageable material. Reports on that
divisions operations showed it was
lgarnering for the District about
s65 900 year from salvage and sale
of tin cans metals and other mate
rials. Its superintendent, William A.
Xanten, was praised by the subcom-
mittee for his program, Mr.. Coffee
said.
There were indications the sub
committee would insert in the
budget an item of 5000 for the
library for the blind.
Roland Brennan, District pur.
chasing officer, urged approval of a
requested $4,000 for acquisition of

SS,9o7,743 as compared with gross
receipts for the comparable period
OF 1923, the report showed

Special Dispatc to The Star.
PRINCESS ANNE, Md, May S.
Rives Matthews, editor and publish
er Of the Somerset News here, who
was defeated for the Republican
senatorial nomination earlier this
week, was reclassified IA by his
local draft board today.
Mr.. Matthews, who was 81 last
March, said he had not decided
whether he would appeal his change
in status. For the last 18 months,
he has been in class IA for essen
tial' civilians. If he is drafted, he
said, his weekly newspaper would

Under present procedure, however,
the emphasis is on calling men under

The country editor first achieved
public notice when he was arrested
on a criminal libel charge last June
after he published stories revealing
a trip made to Georgia by State
Controller j. Millard Tawes in a
State-oWned car during a period
when pleasure driving was banned
The libel charge was dropped last
month,
