Best of the four homes is the In

Children at Blue Plains. Md. Both
staff and physical facilities are ade-
quate, although staff enlargement
would be desirable. The physical
arrangement in comparison with the
other three seems miraculous. The
house all are light and airy. with
large rooms and sturdy, attractive
furniture.
There is an excellently equipped
mechanical shop, barber shop, shoe
shop, laundry-where the boys are
trained for various types of work
The bedrooms are crowded, but this
is because of lack of personnel, not
space. Two buildings have been
closed down because there is not
enough staff to man them. The
boys stay in groups in cottages,
with matrons, cooks, etc., living in
the houses.
Work Done by Boys.
Much of the work here is done by
the boys themselves. in their voca-
tional training program-under
supervision of their instructors
There is plenty of space for recrea-
ton, and the plant has an auditor
ium equipped with facilities for
showing moving pictures. Superin-
tendent Wendell P. Tucker wants
more custodial workers, a large
building to house indoor recreation
facilities and larger teaching staff

'as 10 the use of the Russian

An UNRRA official said that
discussions of the matter were
under way between Russian and
UNRRA representatives and ex-
pressed confidence that the pay
ment would be made eventually.
While details of the discussions
were not available, UNRRA
records showed that Russia was
the only major subscriber to the
UNRRA administrative budget
who was delinquent in her pay
ments. The Reds paid 100000 of
their S1,500.000 administrative
assessment early in 1914, but have
paid no further instalment. Rus
sia's share of the 1915 administra-
ton expenses will be $4,000.

Admiral Mitscher said the Navy's

He called for the training of
1900 naval aviators and $500 air

At least 5000 new planes should
be added to the fleet during the
