zoners Defer HEARINGS
On ; Appeals After
Technically Slip Up

The Board Of Zoning Adjust
ment has deferred hearings Of
three appeals from the zoning
rules on the ground Of insuf1-
cient public notice Of yesterdays
board session In the District
Building.
The board dismissed the ap-
peals in the face Of contentious
that published notice on Febru-
ary IL was not full 10 days
before yesterdays hearing.
Indications were. however. that
the appeals will be heard at the
boards next session. after the
technicality has been met.
Two of the cases concerned an
announced plan to build under
ground bombproof Offices to house
1000 Government employees on
the east side of Connecticut ave-
nue. between Albemarle and Bran
dywine streets NV.
The appeals. by Morris and Rose
Kanfer and the White House
Realty Co.. were for a variance
from the height and use restric-
tions to permit the construction.
A statement by Mr.. Kanfer said
he proposed to finance the build
ing privately and lease it to the
Government for 10 years. He con-
tended that, If the General Serv-
ices Administration were to accept
his plan, "it would eliminate the
need to disperse at least 1000
Government employees in new con-
struction to be built at Govern
ment cost outside the city limits"
The other appeal. on which the
public notice was first challenged.
was to permit an eight-story apart
ment building at the southeast
corner OF New Mexico and Cathe-
dral avenues NV.

patronage should go to the Sena-
tor. This arrangement lasted dur

The last incumbent. appointed
in 1884, died last August SO the
Arkansan shouted: "It's Arkansas

However. Representative Pat
man Of Texas turned a deaf ear
to the plea and. being from
Texarkana himself, nominated
one of his own constituents for
the Office.

Senate attache that the Texas
postmasters had been confirmed
by the Senate.
Assuming this meant the whole
list had been put through en- bloc
as pro forma proceeding as the
Senate frequently does, he wired
CONGRATULATIONS to the Texas
nominee for the Texarkana Office.
Next morning. Senator Con-
nally's clerk, in checking the list
of combinations, discovered that
the Texarkana post Office had been
omitted.
Then there was much excite
ment. It was confirmed that the
omission was no mistake. Senator
Connally frantically telephoned
his Texas nominee that there
had been some mistake and
nothing should be said about his
congratulatory telegram Of the
night before.

Senators and Representatives Of
Arkansas and Texas are up to their
ears in scrap over the Texarkana
post Office.
Texarkana is not only named
for the two states. because half
the town Is In Texas and half In
Arkansas. but the post office
building itself Is astride the State
line.
For decades the Texas and
Arkansas Congressman traded the
Texarkana postmaster, naming
first one from Texas and then one
from Arkansas.

ing, but in all its other meanings
the spelling is Check" as in Ameri-
can usage.
@. Will you please give the pro-
nunciation and origin of the word
chic?-Mrs. F.
A. Pronounce it either sheek or
shick. The first Is the French pro-
nunciation. Be sure to avoid
"chick," as in chicken"
Chic expresses the idea of smart
ness, especially in matters OF a
woman's grooming and dress. The
word is from chicane, "the use of
artful subterfuge; to trick by
chicanery: trickery."
Little Rock: Why call a drinking
glass ''tumbler ?-Mrs. j. A. r.
A. Long ago, when manhood was
measured in proportion to ones
drinking capacity. wine glasses had
rounded or pointed bottoms so that
they could not be put down until
empty. At drinking parties, the
glasses were constantly refilled and
each man had to drink his share,
for, if he tried to set his glass
down, it would tumble and spill the
contents.

same labor as other varieties. The
heavy clay soils are well drained,
but not too fertile. The soil should
be good, but leached of its natural
fertility. Fertilizing must be done
through growing time to harvest
days. Barnyard manure is con-
sidered best. Harvest time is 1910
days after the crop is first set in
the field.
The plants of aromatic tobaccos
like other varieties begin in plant
beds. The small plants are trans
ferred to prepared rows, 20 inches
apart and 4 to 5 inches is allowed
between plants. There are 10000
plants to the acre. Insects and
disease are the same that attack
the palmer tobaccos.
Harvest lasts from five to six
weeks. The best leaves come from
the top of the plant and are har-
vested last. Experienced growers
decide on harvesting time. They
select leaves drenched with dew
arrange them in a box for sur
drying and watch results.

Aromatic TObaccOs.

Aromatic tobaccos brought pros

that the Carolinas and Upper
Piedmont sections of Virginia were
ideally suited to the growing of fine
aromatic tobaccos brought cheer
and jobs for many.
Turkish or aromatic tobacco is
used in all the popular brands of
American cigarettes. Indeed, we
have been importing about 100 mil
lion pounds annually.
Indians could never understand
why the white man was so eager to
improve his smoking tobacco. The
Indians used the plant mostly for
ceremonial purposes; the stronger
the tobacco, the more confident
they were the conference would end
we'll. But in spite of protests the
white man experimental until he
achieved the right aroma, strength
and flavor.
Today, the American grower pro-
duces the tasty blends equal to the
very finest of Turkish tobaccos.
