Fine Bridge to Link North and South

WASHINGTON. — Completion within the next six years of the .world’s finest bridge and cne of this capital's supreme adornments, was virtually assured when the house of representatives passed the senate bill for the construction of Arlington Memorial bridge at a cost of $14,750,000. The vote was yeas. 204; nays. 125. It was reached after four hours of debate. that was sometimes lefty and visioned. and sometimes acrimonious. The project has a much larger significance than inheres tn its artistic and its practical aspects. By linking the memorial to Abraham Lincoln on the Washington shore of the Potomac with Arlington National cemetery and the old home of Robert E. Lee on the Virginia shore, the new bridge will become a Hyur bolos union. As an Hie proposed bridge *l2B been a matter of high coneerj tc architects and artists throughout the country as well as fd citizens ol h<»M&ern and southern states who have wohtdd fyr the of animosities which have been inherited from the Civjj war. For fourteen years, the specific plan to link the Lincoln memorial with the Lee hcuse and Arlington cemetery has been before congress and the country, an& for more than eighty years a proposal to open the federal city to the south by means of a monumental causeway and bridge has been a dream of visioned men. Among them was

To Educate Dealers in Buying Meats

WITH a view to educatiug the people how to buy meat, the government is conducting a nation-wide survey of the retail meat business. Preliminary reports received by the Department of Agriculture indicate that consumers generally knew less about differences in cuts and quality of meat than of any other commodity. Most of the housewives interviewed by the government’s investigators were able to mention only two or three steaks which they could recognize If cut, and the average number of Toasts with which they were familiar was less than two. I|esearch studies of the Department of Agriculture of the methods, practices, costs and consumer-buying habits in retailing meats have been made in the fclkiwing fifteen widely separated cities and towns: New Haven. Conn.; Binghamton. N. Y.; Baltimore. Md.; Washingten, Jacksonville, Fla.;

Department in Clever Detective Work

HOW the government printing office turned detective and materially assisted in the conviction cf seven men who participated in one of the biggest whisky frauds ever prosecuted under the prohibition law has been disclosed in the annual re;>ort of George H. Carter, public printer. Three hundred suspected permits for the withdrawal of whisky frttu bonded warehcuse had been seized by> the Department of Justice and the bureau of internal revenue. They constituted the only material evidence in the government’s ease against the distillery of A. Guckenhelmer Bros, company and 13 individual defendants, charged with the illegal withdrawaieof large quantities of bonded whisky from Pittsburgh warehouses. - A number of these permits, hewever. had been so cleverly imitated by the photoengraving process that they com-

Senators Stirred by Bathing Beaches

PERHAPS It was a longing for the tang of salt air—perhaps it w»' the lure of warm Florida sunshine. while Washington iadamp and cold— Perhaps it was a vision of strolls heath overhanging palms, dressed in stwrts clothes — Perhaps It was a memory of surf beard riding, and jumping the breakers— v But. anyhow, the dignified United States senate spent nearly all of one day discussing bathing beaches, onepiece bathing suits and the charms of the bathers. This grew out of a proposal that tLother bathing beach be installed in Washington’s tidal busin, but the senate not only failed to appropriate for a new end, but cut off the money necessary to operate the present one. “It would do you old grgy-headed »enators; yes. _ and the bald-headed ones, too, good to go dewn there while thousands disport themselves in the water there.” declared Senator George W. Norris ot Nebraska, who said be

NET earnings of $987,133,650 by class one railroads in 1924 were reported by the bureau of railway mies. which announced that the total represented a return of 4-35 per dent <>« estimated property valuation and waa slightly more than the 1923 figure—sßß3,736.200. which, however, was described as representing a return of approximately 4.48 per cent. The figures presented by the bureau were compiled from interstate com (fierce commission reports and covered neariv 90 per cent of the country’s rail mileage. The gross revenues for the roads in 1924 arm?tmted to $5,986,492, 100, and operating expenses before the Mlculatfon erf rentals and other rosts «f running railroads, were $4. 15R307.800.

Andrew Jacksen. '■Coming to the immediate present, even since Calvin Coolidge became President of the United States, the bridge project has been much in his thoughts and close to his heart Throughout the debate, which was distinguished Uy significant modification of sectional and partisan lines, the supporters cf the measure emphasized the proposal as a grand step in the ennoblement of the nation's city as its show city. Venerable Representative Henry Allen Cooper (Rep., Wis.) received tumultuous applause from both sides of the chamber when he saidt “Tma bridge is not a District of Otfluifibfa mattgf. It l| jyt q Main Street bridge. It is a national matter. It will touch the feelings of every eitizen of the repußjic, every £hild of the fepublic, whv enters this city. During the generations that come after us, mjiyons upon joUljons wyi cross tins bridge, ano consider, gehtlemeß, what a vista o? reconcilTaticn they will sur vey as they look to the east and \o the west from the Virginia approaches—the capitol, the Washington monument, the Lincoln memorial, Arlington cemefafy. jfie amphitheater aij t<»mb yt the soldier, and*<ne home 01, Robert ft i-e?. & te. glntletfißC,. the glory of this project' ttiH it will give not only architectiirgl aftd historic unity to that matchless vista, bitt Will also give it the tenderest and s most ■ solemn sentimental significance It is a magnificent conception.”

"A compulsory apprenticeship period is proposed by some representative merchants to correct this situation.” The need for selling meat on the basis of grade, and for educational campaigns to acquaint consumers with the difference in cuts and quality, is also seen by leading retailers to prevent possible deception, substitution and misleading and' untruthful adver rising. They believe that greater knowledge of comparative values of meats by the consumer would be bene fieial to the trade.

pletely defied all attempts at detection by experts, and the defendants’ conteu tiop that were legal permits issued by government officials seemec for a time to be irrefutable. The public printer finally suggested that a test be made of the paper used in both the genuine and the false per mits. It was learned that the trut permits were on a 50 per cent rag paper. with the government’s watermark running lengthwise on the sheet. Tht suspected permits, on the other hand were printed on paper on which the watermark, although correctly reading “Internal Revenue Pnthibition.” ran across instead cf lengthwise of the sheet. Furthermore, the pai»er varied in composition from all wood pulp U 95 per cent, rag content. The evidence submitted by the printing office appeared conclusive tc the courts, and aided the government in obtaining the' conviction, in May. 1924, of seven of the defendants.

Senator Heflin declared that he had often gone ts Washington’s bathing beach. “If congress remains in session this summer," said Senator Heflin, “so many of these old senators will be down at the water frent. straining their eyes, that it will he impossible to maintain a quorum." # “1 have only a few short hours remaining here, because I am responsive to a decree for which I am not responsible.’’ said Senator Stanley, referring to bls failure of re-electicn. “but I would not want to deprive the senators who remain of the few enjoyments they now have “I have been down to the bathing beach many times, but my observation is that the young wetnen there generally heed that old song: “ Mother, may I go out to swtoF Ye*, my darling daughter; Hang your clothes on * hick ry limb. But don t go near the water.'

Southern railroads bad the best percentage of return In the United States, the bureau estimated, their earnings of $142,554,438 being 5.2 per cent of the assigned valuation of their' property? Eastern lines. Including those c per a red east of the Mississippi and north of the Ohio rivers, earned $466,498,235. or 4.58 per cent on valuation, while the western railroads, with total earnings of $378,080,991, were credited with a rate of per cent . While the actual earnings cf railroads for 1924 were greater than in 1923, the amount represented a less satisfactory return rate, it was explained. because of the new and largre investment in railroad facilities during 1924. Among the larger items of expenditure made by railroads during the year the bureau Bated taxes, which amounted to $»44.073JX». This was $6,739,000 greater than tax payments for 1923.

How Newspaper Helps to Build Community “The outstanding character of the newspaper as a medium in cominunity advertising,” says a bulletin Issued by the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World, “is stressed in the book •Community Advertising,’ by Don E. Mowry, chairman of the extension committee of the community advertising department of the Associated Advertising Clubs." Quoting from Mr. Mowry’s book, the bulletin proceeds In part: "The newspaper is sgveclfic circulation in a territory you desire to reach. One can buy the circulation In the communities or sections he desires to reach by using the newspaper mediums in that community or that section. The wholg question Is approached Tn much the same manner that one approaches a problem involving the sale sis any commodity. Commercial succeJsef can be credited to the newspaper by the hundreds. Communities are recognizing the value of the newspaper. "* , “The newspapers of the country ar£ behind all community undertakings,'’ ' she author continues. “They help build ' immunities. They have to ■ expert’s’llppbrt from those community I advertising organizations which are aimifig to develop communities. The I money raised through newspaper pubI licltyj if given freely, should not be i expended in other mediums exclusively to the detriment of newspaper advertising.” Fire Protection Now a Built In With Lath A new tendency has been recently noted in the construction of betteri built homes. The particular development referred to is the use of materials offering greater resistance to fire. Among these are metal lath and plaster, which having been officially accorded the National Board of Fire Un- ’ derwriters' full one-hour rating as respects their use as protection for lum- ! ber studs and joists for walls and floor, are now recognized by leading architects as the most economical j form of built-in fire protection suitable for home construction. Mindful that fires which originate in basements are most inaccessible and difficult of control, it was decided to ■ use metal lath and plaster on that portion of the basement ceiling over the heating plant and boiler room. This construction will confine a fire to the room of origin for one hour, giving ample time for occnpaniw to ■ escape from the building to summon the fire department and extmghish the fire before it has bad q/chance to * spread and involve the "entire building. Making for Prosperity Every citizen wants to preserve what he thinks is good; every citizen wants to improve what he thinks Is bad; every citizen wants to took after his own private interests. These three desires are mingled in everybody, but in different proportions. A preponderance of the first makes a reactionary; a prejionderance of the second makes a progressive; a preponderance of the third makes a self-seeker and a place hunter. Undue excess of any of the three produces a more or less evil result. Excess of the third no doubt produces the worst result; yet the third desire Iles at the very' root °f true prosperity.—-Arnold Bennett.

Elevating Family Life In the crowded'life of today there Is danger that we may lose sight of the high stamiards for the home and the stimulus they afford. We all do better when we have a high ideal to live up to. The Better Homes in Americsi movement aims to give practical demonstrations of comfortable, healthful and attractive homes, and to direct attention to the means by which family life may be elevated. It recognizes. however, that it is not the wish, but tbe Will; not sentimental desire, but vigorous, well-judged leadership, that moves onr national life forward. —Secretary Hoover. Citixene At Town Builders Our Industries and business enterprises must grow and prosper before our town can make headway. The idea is to boost 'industries and enterprises. and as they prosper, new industries and enterprises will locate here. Real town building so done through a citizenship boosting the industries and enterprises which are already located. Never knock a home enterprise. When you do you create a tendency to lower real estate values, salaries and every prospect your town ba* of growing. Home Should Be One*e Own “No family.’* saya the New York •Herald-Tribune, “can ever feel for a rented house that deep-seated affection which is naturally developed for a home they own. There is little incentive to adorn and beautify the house and the yard which belong to another. But when-the place that shelters the family group is their own every added beauty, every tree and shrub and flower planted adds new charm to life and strengthens the ties that bind th* happy hearts."
