yrl‘ i CHINA GROWS QUIET AFTER DISORDERS Struggle Becomes matic and Economic as Rioting Subsides. By the Asso Press. SAN FRANCISCO, Juue 20.—The Chinese situation, inspired and pro- moted by anti-foreign agitation, today showed signs of developing into a urely diplomatic and economic strug- gle. Reports of fewer than for two weeks. Pr disorders today were any in the past ctically the only dis- orders were between Chinese, them selves, such as the kidnaping of Chi- nese workers by strikers at Shanghai A single exception was noted at Can ton, - where the hier of a Japanese hospital, carrying $5.000 cash which he had just drawn from a bank for use by the hospital, was shot. This, however, was said to have been the work of bandits and not a political mater. The shooting was indicative, how- ver, of the unsettled conditions in , where the former lieutenants Yat-Sen are trying to stable government s s of intermittent m ism and of busines: terests by sundry tax collect task is proving difficult, espe view of the anti-foreign which has crept into South ( reflection of the disorders at establish a several y tar- ally in agltation na s a anghai.

Boycott Plans Pushed. In the meantime a delezation rep. resenting 48 Chinese colleges called upon the Chinese minister of war and the foreign minister, urging that dip- lomatic relations with Great Britain be severed. The government of the international settlement at Shanghai is very largely in the hands of the British, which accounts in part for the special animosity shown them b the Chinese. Plans for a boycott of foreign goods and bank notes were reported going forward at points in the Yangtse River Valley. At Chungking, where agita tion has been e: 11y strong,a move was under way to prevent Japanese and British getting coal, which s an essential to power projects in that section Decision of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce at Shanghai to reopen the Chinese banks there was pointed to as another step toward the return to normal conditions in the gateway city.

City Hall Draped in Black. While flags everywhere are at half- staff, the city hall alone is draped in mourning. The Senator himself, long before the end, expressed the desire that mourning be omitted by mem- bers of his own family, declaring to his wife that “there is no sorrow in death when a life has been well spent.” Work in Madison will be suspended and the business houses closed during the hour of the funeral. The State Legislature will recess Monday morn- ing and the capitol off will be closed throughout the day. The funeral services will be simple. They will be conducted in the capitol rotunda by the Rev. A. E. Hayden of Chicago. 01d Friends Pallbearers. Lifelong _friends of Senator La Follette will be the active pallbearers.

Covell said: “You all know them, you are seeing them every day-—the rush of national organizations to this city, new bus lines almost weekly, the new cathedral and other semi-public build- ings, the new park commission, the new Memorial Bridge and others with- {out number. But to my mind one of the most significant of these signs is the present ‘transportation survey Transportation is the basis of mod- ern civilization; without it this city cannot grow: with an {mproved sys- tem this city will expand even more rapidly in the: future than it has in the past.” Becoming World Capital. He told of the requests for informa; tion that had been sent out, and con: tinuing he said: “The number of replies was gratify- ing: the facts given were inspiring. First of all, everybody agreed that Washington will steadily increase in mportance. It is particularly inter- esting to note the constant recurrence of the term ‘world capital” To read all of the remarks on this subject would be largely repetition, but one reply, from the Right Rev. Thomas J. s n of the Catholic University, so well summarizes this general feeling that 1 shall read it to you: “*“The city bids fair to grow steadily in importance, owing to the increase of federal activities, local and general; the development of patriotic spirit, the owing attractiveness of the city several viewpoint and its new significance as the Capital of the fore- most nation of the world, with all that such_distinction implies. ““In 30 years our suburb of Brook- land_has grown from one house to about seven or eight thousand souls. The Catholic University of America has grown from 4 professors and 38 students to 100 professors and over 2,000 students, including its Summer school. Its buildings have grown from 1 to 25. In this period an ex- tensive rural section has been closely knitted to the city. In ars three or four Catholic parishes, quite popu- lous, have grown up around the uni- versity, and every year Brookland and Hyattsville, Md., "are drawn more closely together But there are other interesting facts brought out. We found that our residents are wealth: the mani. Leads in Assessment. Washington, he said, among cities 000 or over, leads in per capita assessment with $2,687.27, more than twice as much as the nearest compar- ing city, Newark, N. J. The tax as- sessor had informed him, he said, that the assssments increase at the rate of $25,000,000 per vear. The average income of individuals of the city is $3,700, he said, and as for automobiles, their increase is well known On the matter of intelligence, he said that the survey cards from 120,- 000 different people showed that less than 1 per cent were improperly made out 80 as to be useless. This, he con- tinued, is really an astounding record and he doesn't think it can be dupli- cated in any other city in this coun- try. High® school attendance has quadrupled in less than 20 years, and the rate of increase of attendance has been greater in the last five years than in any preceding five years. But even this does not show the increase, for, he said, many parents have taken their children from the public schools and placed tnem in private schools, because of the congestion, and he pre- dicted that with the completion of the five-year school building program there would undoubtedly be a vast increase in pupils. Progress for Zoning. “In zoning,” he continued, “we arée moving forward. Maj. Wheeler informs me that when the zoning law went into effect in 1920 effort was madd to forsee, as far as possible, the needs of residential areas and to cre- ate all business islands therein which would be required for many years. But. as usual, Washington went be- vond expectations—a habit she has consistently adhered to in recent vears. The local business areas are not sufficient and the zoning commis- sion is constantly receiving demands for more, and, by the way, did you know that a careful estimate shows that one-third of the people of this city live in row houses and one-fifth in apartments? “In_building, too, in spite of re- peated assertions that we are over- building, the city continues to break all records. Last quarter, though fifteenth in population we were sixth in amount of building. We include only private buildings, while some other cities include public buildings also. This month, with one exception, showed the largest total ever reached here in one month, $6,334,000, being exceeded only by April, 1923, when the single permit for the Mayflower Hotel amounted to $5,000,000. These per- mits were for the most part for homes.” ‘Then Maj. Covell went into the hotel situation as a medium of forecast. The entnertainment of visitors in the Na- tional Capital, he sald, is one of the greatest industries, pointing out that 50,000 high school students each year come to the Capital. People shake their heads when they see a new hotel going up, wondering where the guests are coming from, and at the same time those in the know are making plans for the erection of more hotels. Sees City of Million. “Even our weather seems to be im- proving,” he said, getting on a touchy subject, as his audience sweltered in on while steaming down the . “When I was a youngster around ‘Washington everybody knocked the weather. 1 heard so many people cussing it that I, not knowing any other, thought it must be terrible. I had to experience a 48-inch snow in Boston, a 100-mile gale in Buffalo and a fog of London to realize that this isn't such a bad climate after all. Again it was our visitors who taught us to know the facts, and who are dis- seminating throughout the country the truth of our pleasant and healthful year-round climate. “Now about the population 30 years from now. The replies on this sub- ject are surprisingly uniform. The lowest was 750,000 and the highest 1,000,000. You might say that they are naturally optimistic, and yet our own postmaster, Mr. Mooney, reaches the same figure based on a study of his post office records, It is interest- ing to note here that the District of Columbia was originally lald out to hold a population of 1,000,000. The Washington Gas Light Co., the Poto- mac Electric Power Co., the District surveyor and the District electrical department all estimate about 900,000 inhabitants 30 years hence, based on the data avavilable in their respective offices. The Water Department reaches 860,400. The Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Co., as you know, studies the growth of our city very carefully and conservatively. ~Its flgures go anly to 1943, but projecting them to 1955, we get 755,000, which is the same .as the estimate of the Health Department. Suburbs Grow Apace. “In all these replies,” Maj. Covell went on, ‘“one general tendency struck me very forcibly, that is the tendency toward conservatism, a hesi- tancy to believe or to follow the signs ns they exist—how different from our friends in California and Florida. If vou look up the estimates of the past you will find that practically every one of them is too low.

METROPOLITAN DISTRICT PLAN IS PLEDGED TRINKLE’S SUPPORT Virginia Governor on Booster’s Trip, Promises W hole-Hearted Aid to Move to Beautify Southern Approaches to the City of Washington. BY WILLIAM J. WHEATLEY: Virginia's support for the develop- ment of a great metropolitan district, with the Nation's Capltal as a center, is_won. Visualizing the great possibllities for the counties of the upper end of the great State of which he is the chief executive Gov. E. Lee Trin- kle sees the vast possibilities o f starting right now for orderly plan- ning, so that the part of the Old Dominion adjacent to the District of Columbia will be mapped out ahead of the progress of population as to meet with the scheme to develop into the finest GOV. TRINKLE. capital of the world. Gov. Trinkle, a guest of the Mer- chants and Manufacturers' Associa- tion on the booster steamer Southland, is a booster for the Capital City and foresees the great advantages that will come from a wholehearted State and county co-operation with the re- gional development committee in its work of planning the great metro- politan district which will start from the Capital and branch out from 20 to 30 miles into the two adjoining States. Trinkle Pledges Aid. The Old Dominion’s governor, seat- ed on the deck of the steamer as she plied down the Choptank River, wholeheartedly gave his support to the plan and sketched to The Star’s representative the outlook for this development, to which he already has given some consideration and thought. He is ready to act, he told The Star reporter, and awaits only the formu- lated plans and ideas of J. C. Byars of the Arlington County Civic Federa- tion and Lieut. Col. Clarence O. Sher- rill, director of the office of public buildings and public parks of the Na- tional Capital, with both of whom he said he had already discussed the matter, before taking appropriate ac- tion, and it may come early in the next year; that is, the authority for the co-operation with the metropoli- tan district regional development com- mittee. The Legislature of Virginia convenes on February 1, when the governor will send his message to them, and he indicated that he would include the recommendation for the proposed development adjacent to ghe Capital in that message, if the plans are formulated by that time. Really Part of City. “The whole matter can be very easily arranged,” said Gov. Trinkle. t should be developed, and I will be very glad to do anything that the committee wants to_foster it and to bring it into being. It should be done, for Arlington County now while called such, is really a city. It is part of the National Capital, separated only by a body of water. Therefore, its development should be in accordance with a well laid plan such as has been followed largely in the develop- ment of the National Capital proper. “Arlington County needs the de- velopment of a city water system, with accompanying sewage system, to replace the cesspool arrangement for the disposal of sewage. It should make arrangements in the coming development that is_proposed, to be hooked up to the Washington city and water system as the Maryland Suburban nitary Commission has connected with the District. This will be a great aid in the development and is in accordance with any plan for development and should be given serious consideration. Should Plan Far Ahead. “Such a committee should plan away ahead of the development so that an orderly method of highways would result. Tt should prevent the opening of subdivieions that did not conform to the general scheme so that if one subdivision had streets 100 feet wide, another adjoining one could not have streets 50 feet wide. They should plan for parks and play- grounds, and schools, 80 as the de- velopment grew the beautiful resuits of the planning could be watched friction in Los Angeles because the iast United States census was some- what lower than the population claimed, yet in Washington many of us were rather surprised that the number was 8o high. And remember that while other cities can and do increase their population merely by extending their boundaries, our boun- daries are fixed. The only change has been to give about 21 per cent of our area back to Virginia. Every increase in population in Washington means an actual increase in the number of persons living in this great com- munity. If we, too, could extend our boundaries merely to include our na- tural suburbs we would gain from 76,000 to 100,000, and, according to official records, our suburbs are grow- ing twice as fast as the District of Columbia.” The meeting was presided over by Ross P. Andrews, president of the | Merchants and Manufacturers’' Asso- clation and commodore of this cruise, being the chairman of the booster com- mittee, and Maj. Covell's address made distinct impression on them, and stopped them short in their days and nights of gayety. Gov. Ritchie Pays Visit. Every place that the boosters have touched they have been received joy- fully. While anchored in the Chop- tank River off Cambridge, on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, the vessel was boarded by Gov. Albert E. Ritchie of Maryland, who ,was at Cambridge on the State ship, Governor McLean, for the purpose of witnessing the an- nual Chesapeake Bay workboat races, coming into being. Only by such a regional committee as is planned can this be done, and I will certainly give it every support possible. “T have not considered any definite plans for working out the scheme, leaving it to those who mow have the matter in direct charge, but I will give them every co-operdtion they need from the State governmemnt for devel- oping this great and beautiful north- ern area into a metropolitan district on the grandest scale. Holds Zoning Needed. “Arlington county, now is a city, as I have pointed out. It is developing rapidly and the zoning and other de- velopment should be taken in hand now, and I am quite in favor of it. There are hundreds of beautiful homes going up there now. You cannot go anywhere in the sectlon without hav- ing a home in view. So, I say, it is really a city. You can develop a county the same way you could anything within the corporate limits of a town, and it should be done. The State can pass a law glving the county the necessary authority to zone, cut streets and make restrictions, as is done in the corporate limits of a town. The coun- ty supervisor is really a city manager and can be charged with the duty of carrying a scheme into effect. “The regional committee represent- ed by the planning committees of Vir- ginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia could map out their devel- cpment schemes, and then the county authorities, backed by the State law, could carry them out. I think that there could be a committee appointed of, say, two men and one woman to serve with the regional committee as representatives of the county and State, and this committee, working in co-operation with the county super- Vvisor or city manager clothed with the authority, could carry it out. Favors Early Action. “I think that the scheme should be worked out promptly, so that all of the bodies could begin now on their planning in order that disorderly de- velopment could be nipped in the bud. So I am ready and willing to recom- mend to the Legislature the adoption of a law which will give prompt and full authority for zoning, park, high- ‘way, transportation and water and sewerage development to make Arling- ton County and even the adjacent counties a part of the grand metro- politan District of Columbia. “By full co-operation this can be brought about and when this time comes and the plans are laid Virginia will be ready to do everything to con- form to the outlines of the great regional development committee. The metropolitan district is coming into being now, right now is the time to act and those having the matter in charge can depend upon my full co- operation and support because I want to see it.” ARLINGTON CITIZENS BUSY. Is Arlington County to be the front vard of the Natfonal Capital; or is it t be the back yard? Is it to “just gro: into a hodge podge of unrelated thickly populated communities, or will it de- velop Into a great city of broad ave- nues, beautiful parks and splendid homes? These were some of the foremost questions in the minds of the special committee of the Arlington County Civic Federation, composed -of R. L. Plymale, Arthur Orr and J. C. Byars, when they evolved the plan of a regional development commission for Washington and its environs. The committee realized that no plan for the growth of Arlington County can be complete or satisfactory unless it bears a proper. relationship to the de- velopment of the entire metropolitan area of which the Clty of Washington is the center and of which all the nearby suburban communities are es- sential parts, State boundary lines to the contrary notwithstanding. The committee recommended, therefore, that the Civic Federation invite all civic bodles and civil authorities in the Maryland and Virginia suburbs to send representatives to a central meeting to consider the desirability of consti- tuting a regional planning body. The tederation approved the recommenda- tions and authorized the same com- mittee to carry them into effect by ar- ranging for the meeting. Co-operation Planned. The committee has already conferred with some of the Maryland authorities and has received assurance that Prince George and Montgomery Counties can be relied upon to co-operate in every way. The date of the central meeting is still being held open pending definite word of Secretary Hoover's return to the city, who will be asked to make the principal address. Mr. Hoover's department has made extensive studies in the fleld of city planning, and the commerce secretary was one of the principal speakers at the meeting which laun¥hed the regional plan movement for Greater New York and its environs. It is also planned to have at the central meeting appropriate repre- sentatives from the District of Co- lumbia _and the members of the Na- tional Park Commission, as it is re- alized their co-operation will be nec essary in the working out of the plan. Meanwhile, the committee is pro- ceeding with its plans for a mass meeting at an early date of the civic leaders and officials of Arlington County. ‘The local meeting is to acquaint people of the county with the entire plan of development, both local and regional, and to enlist their support of the movement. It is planned to hold the meeting early in july, pos- sibly at the courthouse. Col. C. O. Sherrill of the National Park Com- mission will be asked to speak, in addition to one or more speakers from Arlington County. Stresses Immediate Action. “The importance, not to say neces- sity, of taking immediate action in the matter of making local and re- gional plans cannot be over-empha- sized,” said a member of the com- mittee. “Chicago has recently taken up the work of city planning and finds that it has gotten at the job 50 years late. A single broad avenue leading from the heart of the city to the suburbs will cost hundreds of millions in condemnation proceed- ings. It could have been provided 50 years ago at a small fraction of its present cost. The District of Colum- bia is now spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to obtain neces- sary playground space which could have been obtained 30 yvears ago at one-tenth or less. All large Amer- ican cities are today reaping a sim- ilar costly harvest of the neglect of earller generations. Arlington County should profit by the mistakes which so many cities made in the early stages of their development and should determine that coming IS PASSED IN [TALY Covers News Affecting Dip- lomatic Action or Damag- ing Nation’s Credit.

ROME, June 20.—The Chambes of Deputies today accepted the. resigna- tions of Deputies Nobili and Benassi, which were presented because of the adoption of a measure yesterday giv- ing the government limited authority to discharge civil servants holding political opinions contrary to those of the administration in power. Both deputies were members of the Fascist party, but strongly opposed the legislation. The president of the Chamber was requested to present in behalf of that body congratulations to Princess Ma- falda on her engagement to Prince Philip of Hesse, The Chamber by a secret ballot, to 3, approved the press bill, whi was brought up for consideration at the evening session.

Penalties are provided for infringe- ment of the new law. generations shall not have justifica- tion to lay at our doors the terrible indictment of shortsightedness and neglect.” The fact that Arlington County is the “Gateway to the South,” the committee points out, and because of its proximity to the National Capital, are the prime reagons why great boulevards should be established in- terlocking the two areas. It is ex- pected that the question of houle- vards will be the first and foremost concern of the regional body after organization is completed. Virginia Only Entrance. The committee feels that the en trance to Virginia from Washington is not only most important from a local standpoint, but is by reason of its peculiar geographical conditions about the only entrance to the South from_the thickly populated area of the North and Middle West. These facts, the committee points out furth- er emphasize the necessity for a broad and comprehensive system of highw#ys and boulevards reaching out from the Memorial and other bridges, which until now have been regarded as local approaches, The committee calls attention to the fact that three great driveway pro- posals are now passing through the process of development and the re gional body should put forth every ei- fort to push these projects. They are the Mount Vernon Boulevard, the Lee Highway and the Jefferson Boule- vard. Action has already been taken by the Arlington County Civic Federa- tion looking to the development of a plan of growth for the embryo city which is rapidly rising on the beauti- ful hills of Virginia in full view of the Nation's Capital. What L’Enfant, under Washington and Jefferson, did for the City of Washington more than A century ago, some man, or group of men, wiil surely accomplish for the city which is now Arlington County, if the plans of the Civic Federation are realized. Two Bodies Formed. The federation has created two com. mittees of 10 'members each to clothe its dreams In the habiliments of reality. The “Greater Arlington County Com- mittee” is charged with the responsi- bility of itself formulating a plan for the physical growth and development of the county,,or of reporting a plan for the setting up of a body com- petent to perform that important duty. The “legislative committee” will make a study of the laws and pro- visions of the State constitution with a view of recommending such changes as may be necessary to enable Arling. ton County to carry out its plan for growth and development. The need for legislation is apparent when it is considered that the county form of government, designed to ~meet the needs of rural communities, still pre. vails in this county, which is rapidly donning urban garments. It goes without saying that the local committees will be frequently con- sulted by the regional planning body, and their aid will be sought in effec. tuating locally such general plans as may be evolved for the whole area, The minor features of local develop- ment will, of course, be left entirely to the local committees, The terms of Morris Plan Loans are simple and practicable and fair. ., Thoughtful people who do not abuse credit facilities will find it possible to borrow on The Morris Plan to their advantage.
