GILBERT GROSVENOR APPEALS Geographic Society and Traditions of Some of the history and tradition of the part of the upper Potomac which is being sought by industrialists for | power uses and by governmental plan- ners for preservation as a park is con- tained in an article in the March issue of the National Geographic Magazine, written by Gilbert Grosvenor, president of the National Geographic Society. It is an argument for the preservation of this arca &s a parkway, an_area which he says abounds in tradition, and is valuable for biological study. The natural beautles and wonders are described by the author, who also gives a quotation from a writing of Viscount James Bryce. arging preserva- tion of Great Falls. Mr. Grosvenor's article follows: “The rock-hewn gorge and magnifi- |cent falls of the Potomac River are the most striking scenic features in the vicinity of the National Capital.

Ravines Are Steep. “On the Virginia side, where the cliffs rise almost sheer from the water's | edga, these ravines-are so steep and so |numerous that a journey along the | oluffs entails more travel vertically than | |in a horizontal direction. *“Just above the ruins of the old Aque- duct Bridge, which formerly carried a canal across the river, the trio of jagg- ed rocks known as The Three Sisters recall a romantic legend of the Red Men who once roamed these rugged shores. g “According to the tradition, these rocks mark the place where the three daughters of an Analostan chief were caught in a whirlpool and dragged to their watery grave. They were pad- dling across the river, so the story goes, to a secret tryst with their Pow- hatan lovers on the Virginia shore, but the river demons intervened and, after accomplishing the destruction of the sisters, caused the three gloomy rocks to rise from the spot where their bodies sank beneath the waves. “The Virginia and Maryland shores converge rapidly as one journeys up the river, until a few miles above Washington they are separated by less than 100 feet of water, now swift and turbulent. “Above Little Falls, which is a serles of rapids, the river widens again. Numerous islanas sgangle the Maryland shore. while Virginia’s cii™5 become wilder and more rugged. The watess pursue a more leisurely course here, but it is only a temporary calm before the storm, and 15 miles above the Capital they gather for a majestic plunge over a wall of granite which all the Potomac's ages of work has been unable to wear down. Impressive Grandeur. “These falls offer a scene of impres- sive grandeur. Heaps of rocks are scat- and jagged reefs of gneiss—as if some Titan of long ago had vented his wrath by upheaving the crust of the earth it- self The wildness of the place, as the waters churn and boil in their never- ending warfare with the rocks, is com- parable only to some of the larger mountain canyons of the West, and is hard to conceive as being within a few miles of the Capital City. “Normally the river here tumbles through a rather narrow channel in its race for the Chesapeake, but when Spring melts the mountain snows and deluged valleys pour their overflowing streams into its upper reaches the falls become a swirling flood that rages from shore to shore with a roar that may be heard for miles. ““The old Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, which paralleled the Potomac from Georgetown up to and on beyond the falls, was begun about the same time as the Baltimore & Ohio Raflway, and there was once a keen rivalry between them for the freight traffic between ‘Washington and Cumberland. But the “iron horse” outdistanced the faithful, plodding mules of the towpath, and the canal is no longer in operation. “However, transportation’s loss has been the gain of thousands who know and love the hike along the towpath, with its great trees and thickets fring- ing the still waters of the canal, while here and there a moss-incrusted rock, bolder than the rest, juts out like some lmmmun Lorelet. wcrreat for Bird, Bfrds frequent the vicinity .. sount- less thousands.

BY DAVID LAWRENCE. ‘While on the surface it looks as if the United States Government will have returned only 80 per cent of the prop- erty of Germans seized during the war —a bill to that effect having just passed both Houses of Congress—au- tually the expectation is that banks throughout the world will cash at a slight discount the certificates to be issued to the German claimants, covers ing the remaining 20 per cent of thelr property. Most of the German property which the American Government holds was turned into cash anyway, and has been held in the Treasury in the form of Government bonds. Interest has been accumulating and has been carefully accounted for, so that when the various claimants were finally told they could have only 80 per cent of their property back and the rest would be held in trust but that they would be given cetrificates of ownership, no objection was raised as it was felt these could be sold to the banks. Pay From Treasury. It may take 20 or even 50 years for the American Government to be reim- bursed for the sums it is advancing to American citizens who lost property or the lives of relatives through operations of German submarines. The American Government, under the bill which is now before the President for signature. will pay all the American claimants out of the Treasury, but will reimburse it- self out of the annual payments to be made by Germany on reparations under the Dawes plan. Hence the American Government held back 20 per cent as a sort of protection for itself. There is no certainty, however, that even if reparations were not paid the United States Government would ulti- mately refuse to turn back the private property of the Germans, as it is con- trary to international law for private property to be held after peace has been declared, and the American Gov- ernment has been criticized for hold- ing the German property 10 years. ‘The defense given, however, has been that under the treaty with Germany, the American Government was given the right to confiscate German property if it chose, but in that same treaty. the United States expressed a desire to give the property back when the American claims against Germany had been sat- isfied. Bill Proves Popular. There were very few votes cast against the bill in either house and some of the criticism was directed at the fact that the United States did not restore all the German property. The allied governments did not return any German property, thereby superseding principle which for many generations had been defended by international jurists as an equitable one in respect of private citizens, who are made the innocent victims of the acts of their re- spective governments. The possibility that the certificates representing the 20 per cent balance will be bought by banking institutions and held for collection out of German reparations over a period of years with accumulated interest, is being dis- cussed and if the certificates are con- verted into cash, the effect will be to give German claimants practically all their property in cash, thus énabling the American Government to point te practically a complete restoration of private property within 10 ycars afte: the signing of the armistice.

His friends re- ported him missing, and neither UIE‘ actor nor his represantatives issued any denial of the fist fight or Selznick’s ac- count of it.

This seemed to anger him very much. so when I left the bungalow he foliowed Moore and me. “He struck me before T walked out and on the lawr he struck me again.

PHYSICIANS HERE URGED TO WATCH TUBERCULOSIS Doctors Asked to Educate Public in Early Diagnosis of Disease. The importance of educating the public to take all possible precautions for the diagnosis of tuberculosis in its early stages was stressed by Dr. W. D. Tewks- bury of the Washington Tuberculosis Association in an address before the meeting of the District of Columbia Medical Society at 1718 M street last night. T'r. Tewksbury told of a recent sur- vey of the country, which revealed that only about 16 per cent of the patients admitted to tuberculosis hospitals and sanitarfums were in the early stages of the disease. Dr. George M.
