The Federal Communications Commission, the Home Owners Loan Corporation (which has less than a thousand of its 7.500 em- ployees here), the Bureau of the Census, a half a dozen agencies in Agriculture and Interior, and the Securities and Exchange Com- | mission are just a few that have| heen singled out by congressmen or other offigials for removal to other cities. But decentralization by trans- ferring agencies and bureaus to the hinterlands isn’t the only scheme that has been advanced.| Several years ago, the National Resources Commiftee came out with a plan to scatter 12 “re- gional capitals” over the United States, locating them roughly at| the same points where the Federal | Reserve banks are located. This would mean regional capitals would be established” at or in the vieini- tics of Boston, New York, Philadel- | phia, Cleveland, Richmond, Atlan- | ta, Chicago, St. Louis, Minneapolis, | Kansas City, Dallas and San Fran- | cisco. !

WOULD START ANEW | Probably the most startling plan| to some has come from a govern- ment official who asks to remain unnamed until he has put his completed scheme in shapg for presentation. His idea is to junk Washington altogether and move the national capital to Chicago or some other centrally located mid- western city. He is drawing his plans on Chicago because of loca- tion and because he knows it so well. His plan, roughly, is to build all of the government buildings in a vast landseaped quadrangle well with the capital by a fan-shaped system of subways, to suburban homes to their offices. There would be no residences in the capital area. We can already smell sulphur from the storm of controyersy this plan would bring up—not to mention what a wreck it would leave of the national unity pro- gram. But it is an architect's| dream. e BIG BROTHERS ROCKY MOUNT, N.C.—A little girl tearfully telephoned police to come at once. Sirens screeched.

He converted a part of the hotel into a stage, where the players gave their first performance before touring the state. And they finished their tour with a profit and all bills paid. The Piedmont Players presented “Omi- gosh,” which marked the first time since “Disraeli” that Mr. and Mrs. Sterling played together. “Because the Sterling automobile seemed in such pocr condition for BUY DEFENSE BONDS.
