Arlington Rose Garden Expanding

All four sides of Arlington Me
mortal Rose Garden, developed by
the Arlington Rose Garden Foun-
dation, will be planted with an
evergreen border this spring. The
evergreens will be backed by
blooming shrubs. Five hundred
more roses have been ordered for
spring planting. along with 48
dogWood trees on the hospital
grounds surrounding this garden.
All will be in readiness at the
garden for the Memorial Day
celebration this year and the
event will include dedication ex-
ercises that were postponed from
last year.
The Memorial Garden is the
first and only war memorial for
the participants of World War II
to become reality in Arlington,
according to Nell M. Broyhill,
chairman Of the foundation.
Nine. Chang Kai-shek sent a
dozen roses bearing her name to
be planted in the garden. The
Grande Duchess Charlotte of Lux
embourg sent Is roses named for
her. Other individuals and sew
eral nurseries have contributed
entire beds of their own origina-
tions. PotoEaac Rose Society has
planted bed of the new rose
Fashion" The society also has
held several pruning demonstra-
tions at the site.
Here indeed is a place of
beauty, an educational and an
experimental station, a haven of
rest and memories" said Mrs.

Club Triples
Roll in Year

One of the fastest-growing
Horticulture clubs in the Metro
politan Area Is the Metropolitan
African Violet Club. Organized
early in 1948, with II charter
members who met in homes, the
membership now includes both
men and women and has record
of achievement and future plans
of ambitious nature. The roster
Of members tripled in 1949.
Meetings are held in the sec
ond Tuesday monthly in the En-
gineers' Clubrooms, 1925 E
street NV.
In spite of growing pains. the
club has found time to hold two
spring shows in Gadsbys Tavern
in Alexandria, Va. all profits
going to the American Cancer
Society.
At the first Of these shows there
were 159 plants of 65 varieties
displayed. Visitors were present
from IL States at the next spring
show, which was held during AL
exandria's bicentennial celebra-
ton.
In the fall of last year, at the
invitation of the Canary Club of
Washington, fall exhibition was
also staged in connection with
the annual bird show.
The Metropolitan African Vio-
let Club expects to have an at
tractive display of plants at the
national convention of the Afri-
can Violet Society of America in
Philadelphia in May, following
soon after the clubs display at
the National Flower and Garden
Show here

of them will have little salvage
value.
That little matter for the gar
dens is another problem. 1t took
400 square yards to supply this
show. 1t was quite a job to get
that much sod ready. When the
show is over it is good for just one
thing-the compost pile.
1t would take several freight
cars to hold all of the things which
go into the making of the show.
That is another way of saying
that it costs quite a bit to stage
a big flower show. Not many
exhibitors can afford the expense
OF entering without some outside
help. For that reason the show
management usually allots a cer-
tain sum as subsidy to the ex-
hibitors, depending upon the type
and size of each display. Many
thousands of dollars are distrib-
uted to those firms and groups
who provide the marvellous dis
plays to greet your eyes.
That does not mean, however
that that is the cost of the show.
There is the rental of the Armory
and the payment of hundreds of
employees needed to service a show
of this size, not to mention the
army OF workers who spent days
If not weeks of their time in bring
ing the plants to perfection.
Then there are the scores, yes,
hundreds. of men and women who
prepare the flower ARRANGEMENTS.
At this season they are using, for
the most part, materials grown in
greenhouses-mostly with their
own money and exhibited so that
you may see the best in artistic
arrangements.
There is still another angle
the ever watchful eye of the Plant
Quarantine Service must be on the
job checking plants from distant
areas for unwanted diseases and
insect pests.
Yes, 1t costs money to stage a
show of this magnitude, but it is
worth 1t, every cent of it, for
people everywhere enjoy flowers.
Maybe roses are your favorites.
They are with the majority of
people. You will delight in the

can be arranged a year in advance
Why does it take so much plan
ming and preparation? The ex.
hibitor must first of all visualize
a display that will tell a specific
story or picture a given scene
Having such a plan in mind the
next step is to plan the trees
shrubs, flowers. furniture and fix
lures which are necessary to exc
cute the plan.
The listing of materials for the
plan is not ordinarily a difficult
process but the securing -of them
in the sizes necessary to keeping
the details to an appropriate scale
is a real task. Their shape and
symmetry must be considered and
each Towering plant must be
ready with full supply of flower
buds. There must be sufficient
grass in the foreground to pro-
vide the desired setting. All these
arrangements take time and pa
tience.
Forcing Is Delicote Tosk
Having selected the plants and
bulbs they must be brought into
forcing houses at the right time
so that they will. be in full flower
the Gay the doors open for the
big show. II the days are cloudy
the development of the plants
will lag. Too much sunshine and
abnormally warm weather, such
as We had in February, speed UP
the plant processes so that the
plants must be moved to cooler
situation.
Because of these unpredictable
factors 1t is normal practice to
force many more plants than viii
be on display at the show. Some
are started ahead of the usual
schedule and some later so that
a few will be at the right stage
for exhibiting. All of the mate
rial in a garden display must have
the roots attached, i.e., it is not
permissible to cut off the top from
a shrub and insert it in a pail of
water hidden under the soil. In
many cases where large Towering
trees are used the root ball must
be reduced in thickness so that il
will have a natural appearance
and OF, course that is permitted
although when so treated the
plant is usually of no further use
Most of the other plant mate
rails used in the show can be
returned to the nursery or green
house to recover from the forcing
and to be- restored to full useful
ness. That is, all except the bulbs
and the ANIMALS which will have
little salvage value since the cost
OF carrying them along until out
of-doors planting season woulc
exceed their value. The azaleas
and rhododendrons, of which there
will be many in full flower, can
with only a moderate hardening
off" period, be put into the garden
salyose Cost Often Too High
The peat moss and the garden
fixtures are in most cases returned
to the owners for sale or use. II
the show committee provides such
materials it usually disposes OF
them to whatever advantage il
can help offset the tremendous
costs of staging. In many cases
the most OF salvaging these mate
rails exceeds their market value
and If this is the case little return
may be expected. This is espe-
cially true of the dogwood trees
They were especially selected fol-
shape, branching, buds and uni
formity of height. Each was care
fully balled for forcing but be-
cause of weight and space many

Holly Society
Meeting Here
This Month

The Holly Society of America,
Inc, will send several small holly
trees TO New Zealand to be
planted at the base of the City of
Aukland's war memorial building
The shipping of these holly
trees will feature a meeting of the
society to be held at the National
Arboretum here and at the Uni
versity of Maryland March 80
and 81.
The meeting at the Arboretum
will begin at 2 pm, under the

Various species and selections of
holly, of which there are more
than 500 varieties, will be shown
and plans will be explained for
the expansion of the Arboretum' s
holly paintings.
Society members who desire will
have the opportunity to visit
paintings of unusual hollies in the
Washington area. During the eve
ming. at the Agriculture Audito-
rum at the University, H. Gleason

there would be surplus of low
priced units whose price would
drop, they maintained, but pre-.
sented no statistics from other
cities to support this quaint theory.
Council members were more i'm
pressed by the survey finding that
the number of families looking for
new homes in the next three years
will be $4,000 greater than the
number of housing units built here
in the last 10 years.
The housing survey also reveal
ed that Is per cent of Portland
dwellings, are substandard, and
that nearly seven per cent are de-
finitely dilapidated. In addition, it
was learned that rents here already
have increased more than in any
other city on the Pacific coast. As
a result of the survey, the Public
Housing Administration in Wash
ington allocated 1000 units to
Portland and the White House ap-
proved a loan Of $350,000.

Record Turnout AT
Meeting Of No. 1876

At the last meeting of Local
Union 1876 on March /, the attend
ance was so large we had to use
the auditorium to accommodate the
crowd.
We were fortunate in having our
national president attend this meet
ing and his presence no doubt
brought out the record turnout.
Several matters of vital Importance
were brought on the floor and
President Duffy's comment in each
discussion gave us enlightment on
the subject. He also stressed the
necessity of our giving an honest
days work.
We appreciate Mr.. Duffy's visit
and welcome him as well as other
Executive Board members to our
future meetings.
The shop committees of the var
ious shops are again reminded to
submit any resolutions that might
be given them at the next regular
meeting, so that they may be
drawn up in the proper manner.

Humphrey Offers
Bill To Establish
Coal Commission

Washington LPA) A bill to
establish special bipartisan coal
commission was introduced in the
Senate by Sen. Hubert Humphrey
Cd, Minn.) March /. Humphrey
said his proposal was "a contri-
button toward the prevention of
future disputes"
Sen. Wayne Morse Or, Ore.),
Herbert Lehman (D-Lib, N. Y)
and Paul Douglas Cd, Ill., joined
Humphrey in proposing the COM
mission. The Minnesotan said they
acted "in the realization that the
present dispute is but one of ser
les through which the people of
the United States have suffered,
and it is offered in the realization
that our country cannot afford in
the future the recurring coal crisis
that we have had in the past"
Core of the problem is that "the
coal industry is a sick industry"
Humphrey indicated. He said the
present coal crisis sis a symptom
of deep underlying economic crisis
within that industry and a SYM
ptom too of basic problems arising
from chronological displacement
and the development of substitute
fuels"
Hitting those who make UNIV
President John l.. Lewis whip
ping boy, Humphrey declared there
would be "eruptions of some kind"
in the coal industry mo matter
who the head of the United Mine
Workers of America might be-"
He said that a bipartisan COM
mission would Investigate the
economic problems and prospects
of the American coal industry with
a view to determining what poll
cies and programs by government,
business, labor and others" would
meet the need for coal, provide ris-
ing living standards for miners, ad-
just to chronological changes and
new fuels and prevent labor-man-
agement conflicts.
The coal commission, which
would be expected to report by
next January, would have 18 men,
bers and would resemble the
Hoover Commission. The President
would name six including the
chairman of the White House
Council of Economic Advisers, and
the Secretaries of Interior and
Labor. The President would
name six including three Senators.
Last six would be appointed by the
Speaker of the House and would
include three representatives.

SIG Million Paid
Jersey Workers

Chicago (ILNS). = Sick or dis
abled New Jersey workers received
nearly s16,0O0,OO in payments last
year under the states temporary
disability benefits law, the Ameri'
can Public Welfare Association re-
ports.
New Jersey is one of the states
that require all workers to be COW
cred by off-the-j job disability insur-
ance. The insurance is designed to
make up wages lost by employees
due to sickness or injury not COW
cred by workmen's compensation.
Both employees and employers
contribute under the New Jersey
disability fund plan. Employers
may choose to insure with private
companies or to self insure if they
prefer not to be covered by the
state fund.
Citing a recent years end report
by the New Jersey Division of En-
ployment Security, the association
pointed out that the first year of
the operation of the law resulted
in payment of $8,20O,000 under
private plans, $4,O00,000 by self
insured plans and s3,400,000 from
the state fund.

AFL Asks Sales
Tax Cuts; Higher
Taxes On Estates

Washington (LPA)-The Ameri-
can Federation of Labor has urged
the House Ways and Means Com
mittee to go beyond the Admins
tration recommendations and re-
peal all of the wartime excise
sales taxes.
Matthew Woll, chairman of the
AFL Committee on Taxation, sub
mitted statement to the commit
tee calling the continuation of the
temporary war time taxes "a
breach of faith with the American
people,"
In order to make up for the loss
of revenue, the AFL called on Con-
gress to plug all tax loopholes and
strengthen the taxes on estates and
gifts.
Revision and improvement OF
existing estate and gift tax laws
should be given the very highest
priority in our opinion" VOLTS
statement said. He contended the
estate and gift taxes had been so
weakened that they were produc-
ing far less than they should.
Tn the opinion of the AFL," he
said, at ill-becomes the groups
which are perpetually clamoring
for reduction Of taxes on corporate
income, elimination of taxes on di-
vidends, and more generous treat
ment of capital gains, to oppose
taxes on estates and gifts which
would operate to prevent the con-
centration of economic power and
wealth that are implicit in the type
of Legislation they support"

NLRB Findings Back
Labor Paper Account
Derided BY Post

Denver, Colo. UPA)-The re-
concentrations of the NLRB trial
examiner in the case of the News
paper Guild against the Denver
Post reveal the lack of basis for
the charges the Post made against
the Colorado Labor Advocate dur
ing the hearing and afterward.
The Post charged in a recent
editorial, an outgrowth of the fur
ore over the ETC report, that the
Advocate had made 10 errors of
fact in reporting the NLRB hear
ing. The Advocate, after studying
the NLRB recommendations, de-
clares that it has failed to find
even one error, and that the NLRB
examiner, after a full hearing,
found the Post guilty as charged
of unfair labor practices.
The Advocate points out that
during the NLRB hearing, it re-
ported on the testimony and that
these "errors" alleged by the Post
were accepted as facts by the trial
examiner.
