L ADVOCATES SNE ECONDHY PLANS Frederic Wile, in Address, Says National Saving‘May \. ~ Become Extravagance. Tleading for a “safe and sane” economy program in Federal admin- istration, Frederic Willlam Wile ex- pressed the opinion at last nizht's annual banquet of the Washington | Carpet, Upholstery and Furniture As- sociation that “economy at any cost could easily become extravagance.” He particularly stressed the peril of economy if such a policy is permitted to impair adequate national defense on land, at sea or in the air. The banquet was held at the City Club. The speaker rather startled his audience of business men with a story about economy in the United States Army. Mr. Wile sald that the War Department, more than a year ago, was required by budget necessities to cut down the forage ration of Army horses and mules by 7 per cent. The result. he had been informed, was that thousands of the Army's four- footed beasts of burden were in a state of serious undernourishment. The ordinary Army budget for for- age is $4,000 Thus, to save a altry $280,000," Mr, Wile declared, 1t 1s authoratively stated that our | Women Are Elected To All Offices in Arkansas Resort Will Get Chance to Run Town Despite Back- sliding by Men.

Mrs. Maud Duncan, publisher of a weekly newspaper, the first woman mayor in Arkansas, will have the first all-woman City Coun- cil In the State to work with. By pre-arrangement, no men qual- ified as candidates for office in yes- terday’s election. They had agreed that they were not doing so well with the city's affairs and had de- cided to “let the women take a turn.” As a result names of women only appeared on the ballot. But un election day some of the men or- ganized and voted for certain men for each office, inserting the names of their choice on the ballots. How- ever, they could not muster :nough strength and the women's ticket won by a majority of 2 to 1. STUDERTS’ CONCERTS { his contribution to the fund.

United States Fish Commissioner O'Malley stated today that he is pre- paring to plant the first bass, crapple and sunfish In the Tidal Basin, with- in the next two weeks. He said that while the nets will not be in place at the time of the first planting, he is willing to take a chance on losing some of the fish by reason of their escape from the basin through the gates to take advantage of their Spring spawning. When the necessary wire mesh has been installed to prevent the escape of fish from the waters of the basin, it is the intention of The Star in peration with the Bureau of Fisheries to have a special “fish day” at the basin, at which time most of the fish to be planted will be placed in the Capital's best fishing pond.

CLARK COLLECTION FATE STILLINAR Trustees of Metropolitan Mu- seum Will Decide Action April 20. By the Associated Press NEW YORR, April 8.—The question whether the $3,000,000 art collection conditionally bequeathed to the Met- ropolitan Myseum of Art by Willlam A. Clark off Montana should be ac- cepted, confinued under discussion among art 4ritics and officials of the institution foday, with considerable doubt expressed as to what action the museum would take. The will stipulates that the entire collection be housed in one gallery for exclusive exhibition. This, it is pointed out, would place a hardship on the museum, since the collection has not been catalogued, and com- prises objects of all kinds and of various styles and periods. The mu- seum also is loath to setting aside in perpetuity the large space necessary. Robert W. De Forest, president of the museum, while refusing to com- mit himself 'as to the probable out- come, said that Senator Clark had not consulted museum officials before be- queathing the collection conditionally. It is stated that the Corcoran Gal- lery of Washington will accept the collection of the Metropolitan Mu- seum finds itself unable to comply Miner Entrapped, Sees End, Orders Aide to Save Self Latter, Heedless of Own Life, Fdils in Brave Rescue Effort. By the Associated Press. MAHANOY CITY, Pa., April 3.— His feet pinioned by a fall of rocks which held him helpless while a slowly moving mass of coal and dirt gradually ingulfed him, Thomas Kean, a miner, calmly ordered his helper to safety and met death un- flinchingly in a coal mine here yes- terday. Kean sought to release a mass of coal and rock that had lodged in a chute far underground. Before he could spring to safety a slide pinioned his feet. Lawrence Coulson, heedless of danger, went to the rescue, but Kean told him his efforts would be needless sacrifice of another life. “My time Is up!” cried Kean. “Get out, you can't save me!” Coulson crawled to safety and watched the earth pile up until it covered his friend.

In 1922 Archbishop Tikhon was ar- rested by the Soviet authorities for opposing seizure of church treasures to aid the famine fund. He was ac- cused of counter revolution, but was released some two years later, after he had filed a petition reconciling himself with the new regime and promising to abstain from political activities. During the period of his imprison- ment a Russian Orthodox Church con- clave, summoned by his adversaries, excommunicated him from the church, deposed him from his rank as pa- triarch and abolished that institu- tion altogether. After he was re- leased from prison, his supporters, nevertheless, unofficially reinstated him and the majority of the churches in Russia accepted him as their head. « Electrical Supplies Automotive Suplie “ Radie Supplies Machinery Supplies 1328-1330 New Yotk Ave. .
