Another Good Friend
BY q gentleman's agreement, Mr..
Kefauver will not go into Minnesota
against another good friend. Hubert
Humphrey. the liberal standard
bearer from Minnesota. He Is the
administrations leading spokesman
on civil rights. At 81, Senator
Humphrey. whose only previous
political experience was as Mayor of
Minneapolis, won a smashing victory
in the Senate race in 1913.
Senator Humphrey Is q product
of the .Midwestern dust bowl and
the early New Deal days. He has
been many things - druggist,
political science professor, Mayor.
In Minneapolis, he established bril-
liant record for race and labor rela-
tions. But his tour de force was in
the field of what might be termed
political pharmacy: He compounded
Democratic and Farmer Labor in
gradients into a remedy that cured
Minnesota of chronic Republican
ism.
Bracketed often with Senator
Douglas of Illinois as a Midwestern
liberal in their early days in the
Senate, the Minnesotan has shown
stanch party regularity in contrast
to unpredictable Douglas. He was
considered a natural stalking horse
for President Truman. His besetting
sin is loquacity. He admits himself

Mrs. Bonoporte's Return
The married life of Jerome Bona
parte and Miss Patterson did not
last very long. Jerome was ordered
home. His wife accompanied him,
but she was denied admission into
the country and finally returned to
America where her son Jerome, an
cestor of the late Charles j. Bona
parte, Secretary of the Navy and
subsequently Attorney General in the
second cabinet of Theodore Roose-
velt, was born. Although America
interceded in Nine. Bonaparte's be-
half, bringing the matter to the
first Consul's attention, even by
personal letters from President JEFF
ferson and James Madison, Secretary
Of State, yet Napoleon was adamant
and refused to recognize the mar
riage of his minor brother contracted
in a foreign country without the
consent of his mother. Later Jerome
was forced into another marriage by
Napoleon and Nine. Bonaparte OF
Baltimore never afterward saw him.

ton, Georgetown furnished history
back to the days when Capt. Henry
Fleet visited the Indian town of
Tohesoe on June Is. 1882. Here the
old city had its beginning, but ex-
actly when the first white settlement
was made is not known.
Originally belonging to Charles
County, Georgetown became part
of Prince Georges in 1895, and in
1847 part of Frederick County,
and Scharf, the Maryland historian,
gives his opinion that 1t was for
long time the chief mart and only
seaport of the aforementioned county.
When the Maryland State consti-
tuition was adopted, In 1776, Fred
erick County was divided into three
portions, the lower part becoming
Montgomery County. in honor Of
Gen. Montgomery, who was killed
in the siege of Quebec. The central
portion retained its name Of Fred
erick County, while the upper part
became Washington County.
AS part of Montgomery County,
Georgetown was included in the 10
mile square by the act Of Congress
of July is, 1890, and has since re-
manned q part of the District of Co.
lumbia, although in the early days
it was in favor Of retrocession and
would have gone back to Maryland
--as Alexandria, by vote Of its It'll
zens Of 763 against 222. went back
to Virginia in 1846-had their plea
been answered by Congress.
Georgetown is not the same place
it was in 1900. when President John
Adams first came to the new Capital
to look over the city and later to
take up his residence in the now his
toric White House. At that time it
had a population of 1888 persons,
and by 1911 this increased to 4,948.
President Adams: Visit
President Adams upon his first visit
was met at the District line by a
delegation of citizens on horseback
and escorted to the Union Tavern, at
the northeast corner of Tfirtieth and
M streets, where he remained that
night. proceeding the next day to
Washington to view what the poet
Moore called squares in morasses,
obelisks in trees"
Returning also by way Of George
town, the second President was dined
and wined at the same hotel or tav-
ern. then and until 1907 run by
Mr.. Mclaughlin, when he was Sue
ceeded by William Crawford.
Although 1t was June 6, the hot
weather does not seem to have af-
fected the festivities. for it is said
there was large company present
and at toastS were drunk" and that
"the President left the festive scene
before sunset"
The Union Hotel was at this time
comparatively new, the cornerstone
having been laid July 4, 1893. It
was destroyed by FIRE In 1882 and
! the present building, which occupies
the site, was first opened for busi-
ness in March. 1885.
Prominent Guests
OF course, the interior was re-
modelled several times since then, and
the exterior walls remained standing
until recent years. prior to which
time, many distinguished and prom
inent persons were guests here. This
building, and the one It replaced,
was in the early days the general
and almost the only resort Of those

Tax Change Proposal,
Election Law Bill Due
In Virginia Assembly
BY she As.oeioted Pres,

RICHMOND, Jan. 19.-An i'm
portant tax change proposal and
a politics-packed election law bill
are expected to go to the general
assembly early next week.
The tax matter will be an offer
ing of State Senator Harry F..
Byrd, jr. and will carry out the
request of Gov. Battle to ease the
terms of the automatic income
tax reduction law to provide more
revenue to meet expanded budget
recommendations.
Senator Byrd. sponsor of the
law which benefited corporate
and individual income taxpayers
by more than $11 million in the
first year of its operation, agrees
with the Governor that it's reve-
Understanding terms should be
eased to meet increased costs Of
government.
Repeal To Be Fought.
However, he has promised to
fight all efforts aimed at outright
repeal Of the law. Bills designed to
wipe it of the books have cropped
up in both House and Senate.
Senator Byrd said the exact
form the amendments will take
hadn't been worked out but he
hoped to have them ready for in
PRODUCTION Monday.
Expected also for introduction
by Tuesday is a measure that
should be a runner-up to the re-
districting proposals in its political
implications. This is the projected
orzanization-b backed run-off pri-
mary bill.
Supporters Of the run-off pri-
mary didn't care to disclose all its
terms in advance of introduction
beyond the fact that it would
cover all primary elections for
Statewide offices. These are gov
ernor, lientenant-governor and at
torney general and the two United
States Senate seats.
Run-off Proposed.
It was reported also, however,
that the bill proposes advancing
the August primary date to some
time in July or June to allow
ample time for operation of the
machinery of a run-off primary,
should one be necessary. Under
the contemplated bill, run-off
would be held between the two top
men in the first primary if neither
of them received a majority of
the vote on the first try.
Such legislation could have
marked bearing on the outcome
of the 1853 Democratic primary

contest among Representative
