District Suffrage
Continued From First Page9

believe my bill has an excellent
chance to pass the Senate if ii
reaches the floor, whereas I am ex-
| tremely dubious about chances OF
the constitutional amendment reso-
luton.
Local Suffrage Easier.
II have never been able to under
stand the attitude of those who say
in effect, that they do not want local
suffrage unless they first have ma
tional representation. I have never
said that I did not want national
representation for the District un-
less local suffrage should be granted
first.
Il simply feel that local suffrage
is easier of accomplishment, at least
at this time, and that to secure local
suffrage and to operate successfully
under system of elective city Off
cials for the District cannot fail to
help the cause of national repre-
sentation."
Mr.. HodgkinS also questioned views
expressed by Senator McCarran on
statehood" for the District and the
Federal payment.
ID. C. Apart from States.
"The essence of statehood in the
American Union is a free and sep
arate authority over that range of
governmental action which is re-
served to the States under the Con-
stitution," he wrote. Under that
Constitution, the District is some
thing apart from the States, and in
it the sort of authority which the
States exercise for themselves is ex-
ercised by the Federal Government,
whose Capital City is located there
in.
THE Capper amendment does not
alter that situation. 1t merely makes
it possible for the residents of the

Rios Bids Farewell
10 Truman; Plans
Visit 10 BeIisvine
BY HAROLD b. ROGERS.

Having paid farewell visit to
President Truman at the White
House late yesterday, President Juan
Antonio Rios of Chile today plans
to visit the National Archives and
make a trip to nearby Beltsyille Re-
search to see what this Government
Is doing in agricultural research.
AT the White House President Rios
told newsmen that he had presented
to President Truman a gift which
came from the heart of Chileans. !"
1t consisted of three silver boxes. for
Mr.. Truman, Mrs. Truman and Miss
Margaret Truman. They were made
of Chilean materials by Chilean
workmen, the visiting Chief of State
said, but were of no monetary value
and simply represented the good
will OF his people. He chatted for
some time with newsmen in the
White House lobby.
President Rios emphasized he had
enjoyed his stay in Washington "im-
mensely." He was accompanied to
the White House by Spruille Braden,
Assistant Secretary of State-desig-
nate in charge of Latin American
affairs.
The Chilean President also paid
courtesy call yesterday afternoon
on former Secretary of State Hull
Earlier in the day President Rios
motored to Mount Vernon where he
put wreath on the Washington
tomb and to Arlington Cemetery
where he placed flowers on the Tomb
of the Unknown Soldier. His son.
1t. Carlos Rios, of the Chilean army,
accompanied the party.
President Rios told the press that
during his conversations with
American officials, he did not ask
for loan for Chile. But he added
that out of his talks, and forthcom-
ing conferences between the am
basSadors of the two countries, there
may develop some financial ar
rangement for real cooperation be-
tween the countries" He did not
go into details as to what these ar
rangements may be.
The discussions, however. he add
ed, included postwar problems of
the two countries, both economic
and financial, and also the question
of American continental defense.

Tax Records Disclose
Big Killing Made by
Hitler, High Nazis
BY the Associated Press.

BERLIN, Oct. 13.-Tax records
from Berlin and Munich published
today in the Berliner zeitung show
ed that members of Adolf Hitler's
gang ballooned their incomes into
six and seven figures, acquired vast
holdings and lodged taxes during
the Nazi regime.
Hitler must have been the greatest
in this line, for he could afford to
give his favorites cash presents oil
as much as 100000 marks-S200, ,000
at the old exchange rate OF 40
cents.
BY a special act Of the Finance
Ministry these gifts we're made tax
exempt, said the newspaper, which
Is the official organ of the German
city administration of Berlin.
NaI leaders who reported gifts
from the Fuehrer included Joachim
Won Ribbentrop, 100000 marks in
1912; Walther Funk, 100000 as a
present on his Goth birthday: Ali
Force Field Marshal Erhard Mich
500, 900 in 194l: Field Marshal Will
helm Keitel, 250000 in 1912; Alfred
Rosenberg, 250000 in 1914, and Sepr
Dietrich. 100000 in 1912.
The Zeitung said Nazi leaders
tax statements did not reveal all
their wealth.
Paul Joseph Goebbels, who de-
clared an income from salary of
only 619 marks in 1882, reported
an income of 424,3l7 marks for
1943. In addition he listed prop
erty holdings of $4,000 marks.
Won Ribbentrop boosted his in
come from 1882 marks in 1882 to
456, 6,059 in 1943; Rosenberg, from
1880 in 1882 to 343,5 ,563 in I943, and
the late Viktor Lutte, chief of the
SA, from 1874 in 1882 to 1873
in 1943.
Funk, who declared himself
without property" in 1881, listed
holdings worth $4,000 marks in
1914. The newspaper said this did
not include his huge estate in the
Bavarian Alps which contained
buildings costing 100000 marks.
Lutte also declared himself with
out property in 1881, but in 1914
listed holdings worth 1896 900.
Baron Konstantin Won Neurath
boosted his property from 400, 900
marks in 1881 to 1902 900 in 1910
and Keitel his from l43, 900 in 1881
to 765 900 in l943.

quire variety of species, which
will provide blossoms every month
of the year, says Mr.. Lager.
Before your orchid plant comes
to you, it has had years of patient
culture in the dollhouse. 1t takes
from eight to ten years for an
orchid plant to mature, and the
culture must be carried out with
scientific care.
The minute seeds are first
planted in a sterile base of agar
agar in a glass test tube which is
then sealed with cotton, much as
hospital raises germ cultures.
After eight months to a year,
when the seed has terminated
any tiny leaves appear, the plants
are transplanted IS or 40 at time
to community pots" filled with
root fiber from the common Gin
namon fern, instead Of with soil.
Later the strongest plants are
selected and transplanted to indi-
vidual pots, which are changed
every year or so as the plants
grow.
Once the plant is nurtured, it
will live almost indefinitely, with
moderate care. 1t needs sunny
window, and regular watering.
The root material should be
changed about every three years.

Would you like to have your
own supply of orchids blooming
the year round on your window
sill?
Well, it can be done It's no idle
dream, but an accomplished fact.
You thought that orchids grew
only in tropical jungleS? That is
their natural habitat, but modern
orchid growers have now perfected
their culture to such an extent
that they now are making available
to the public potted orchid plants
which will produce exotic blooms
right in the living room, if you so
desire.
John Lager, of Summit, N. j.,
second generation of an orchid
growing family, says orchid cul-
ture is comparatively simple, once
the plants have been nursed
through their fragile first years.
Those offered for sale are usually
seven or eight years old, ready to
bloom the same or the following
year.
One plant may produce seven
or eight blooms, and the flowers,
if not picked, will remain fresh
and beautiful for several months.
Though each plant blooms only
once a wear. it is possible to &C.

American civilians may be ask
ed to eat less.
Now that will be a real break
for housewives.
Rationing hasn't given them any
breaks at all. 1t just made the
job of feeding their families and
friends tougher. For they were eX-
pected to put as much food on the
table as overland manage it by
juggling points, devising all sorts
of tricks to make a casserole dish
taste almost as good as a roast
Of beef, and performing all kinds
of culinary magic to give the i'm
preston that food was just as
plentiful as ever.
But this "eat less" campaign
if it gets under way-is going to
simplify life considerably, for it
can be. used as an alright alibi.
