Mrs. Brueggeman expects to have a personal conference with the chief executive over the matter. | Under the ruling of September [by the controller general the com- mission would be authorized to care ifor only those government employes jwho could prove an actual “injury.” ipointing specifically to the “vear, month, day and hour when, and the particulur locality where, the injury occurred.” Calls Rullng Narrow.

Dr. Frank W. Ballou, superintend- ent of schaols, congratuiated the com- munity on having the “most expen- sive eight-room primary school in the District of Columbia,” at a cost of ap- proximately $218.000. The high cost of building, Dr. Ballou safd. had been almost prohibitive to enlarging the Washington school-building program ; to meet the needs, and that program was stll far behlnd. Two miilion dollars a Year for five vears were necded, he ‘said, to provide adequate tacilities. Representative In Speaker. Representative-Adolphus P. Neleon of Wisconsin made an appeal that Ameri- cans return to the fundamental ideals of the forefathers, founded in the home, school, church and state. Representa- tive Nelson deplored the nervous sensa- tionalism which he declared has per- meated all branches of life, and recom- mended the people think “soberly of the problems of life and civilization.” The national ideal of “sympathetic co-opera- tion.” he sald, should be instilled into the heart of America.
