Vargas Charges Plot
By Foreign Capital
By the Associated Press

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil, Jan.
/. - President Getulio Vargas
charged last night that "crimi-
nal plot" involving foreign capital
has been bleeding Brazil and de-
elared he will put stop to it.
The President made what he
called the revelation" in q New
Years eve radio report to the
nation.
Mr.. Vargas said that registered
foreign capital in Brazil has been
increasing Illegally and scandal
ously." The increase in the three
years 1948-50 alone amounted to
$3.50 million, or about 200 per
cent, he declared.
He said the situation had de-
veloped because safeguards pro-
vided by a decree law issued by
his predecessor, President Eurico
GaSpar Dutra, In 1916 had not
been carried out. The decree law
was intended to guarantee a nor
NAL return on foreign capital and
to protect BraZil's economy. It
limited the repayment Of capital
to 20 per cent per year and in
tereSt, profits and dividends
earned in this country to 8 per
cent.
However, the President de-
clared, the limitations were not
observed because the exchange
department of the Bank Of Brazil
permitted all profits on foreign
capital above the amounts sent
out of the country to be added to
registered capital This addi-
tional capital could be used as a
basis for calculating future
profits.

TO REVOKE
STORK CLUB
LICENSE

NEW YORK - (CNS) - The
Josephine Baker-Stork club case
is still very much alive for this
week Governor Thomas E. Dewey
turned over to the State Liquor

ed "ex-bootlegger."
The fact that Billingsley served
time in 1919 for Transporting Ii
quor from Ohio into Michigan,
was revealed in the New York
Posts famous series entitled, "In-
side Walter Winchell." It was also
revealed that Billingsley was
fined $4,000 by the Detroit fed
eral court along with his brother,
Ora and sentenced to Is months
in Leavenworth, part of which
period he served.
Under New York States law,
no person with a criminal re-
ord is eligible for a liquor license.

Travellers
Notebook
By Jacques FutreIle. Jr.
The Stur's Travel Editor.

One of the most delightful rea-
sons and seasons for motoring
about Virginia is almost at hand.
Occurring this year from April 26
through May 3. it is known as
Historic Garden Week in Viz
ginia."
The drawing power of this an
nual event extends to distant
States and, naturally. intrigues
Washington area motorists. 1t
offers most of us our only oppor-
tunity to do more than steal q
peek over the garden wall of love-
ly estates to stroll over trim
paths among ancient lockwood
and bright spring flowers. to
enter private homes and feast the
artistic senses on the handsome
interiors conceived and executed
when America was young and
more leisurely.
Trips of 800 or 200 miles, even
less, will put the motorist at the
typical garden gate and stately
.doorWayS where garden pilgrims
will be welcomed. Indeed, Wash
ington pilgrimages need only to
spin across Highway Bridge to
Alexandria to begin their tour.
. Leesburg and Warrenton, and
Fauquier and Loudoun Counties,
familiar to practically every area
resident who owns a car, will be
we'll represented in the display OF
homes and gardens. Such houses
and grounds. generally admired
from afar, will at this time of
the year bid the passerby to enter.
Garden Tour Baedeker-State-
wide in scope, Virginia's garden
week presents such a formidable
array of beautiful and historical
detectives that to visit them all
in an eight-day span would be
arduous, If not impossible. Fortu-
nately, many of the shrines are
open to the public throughout the
year, and there can be a next
time" in the pleasant motoring
months ahead. For that reason,
garden pilgrims may wish to con-
centrate their visiting on estates
that serve present-day owners as
residences. Next time" most
likely would be next year for these
places.
During that week, motoring
families could head for practically
any Virginia area of historical or
scenic interest and return with
a day or two of memorable gar
den sightseeing. On the way out,
they likely will chance upon
green-arrow signs along the high
way and through some towns.
Placed there with the cooperation
of the State Highway Department,
they will point to showplaces.
Such impromptu Journeys could
produce delightful results. Often
they do. But some of the homes
will be on display for only two or
three days, and haphazard timing
could lead to disappointment in
the form of a barred gate. Then,
too, it is advantageous to survey
the whole field of garden week
ATTRACTIONS to select areas hold
ling particular interest.
To assist in such planning, the

lished an attractive booklet of
nearly so pages. Illustrated with
maps of nine areas, where gar
dens will be on display. and with
pictures of some of the estates,
it is a garden tour Baedeker. An
elaborate index refers the tourist
to brief histories of each garden
week attraction. Free copies of
the green and white covered
booklet are available at the Wash
Iington office of the Virginia State
Travel Bureau, 1903 K street NV.

For Overnight Plans-Visiting
hours have been standardized from
10 am. to $50 pm. on weekdays
and from to $50 pm. on Sum-
days. Prominently placed is the
caution that "All homes and gar
dens are not open every day"
These exceptions are noted in
the index and in the historical
sketches on following pages.
There is no pat answer as to how
the differences in time-Eastern
Standard and daylight savings
will affect closing hours. But if
they go on daylight saving
schedule, which by then will be
governing Washingtonians, they
would be early rather than late at
each place.
The booklet also lists each ad-
mission price, generally rang
ing from Is cents to ST, and
notes Shrines that have been re-
habilitated with funds collected
in former garden tours. A note
also tells how hotel reservations
and group transportation can be
arranged through the Virginia
Travel Council, with headquarters
in Richmond. Information CEN
tiers in the various areas also are
listed as a convenience for visitors
