ROGERS DECLARES DEMOCRATS HAVE TELEPHONES IN HAND "Oklahoman Grins About “Dial Situation™ in “Speaking of the Tariff Bill.” “gpeaking of the tariff bill,” grinend Will Rogers of Oklahoma today, be- tween nods to friends hurrying through the Willard Hotel lobby, “we Demo- crats have the dial telephone situation well in hand. “It's simple as rolling off a bronco anyhow. I do better with the dials than Carter Glass even. When I want a number I just call my wife. Then she calls one of our children. “After that my wife and I stand around and give advice while the kid does the work. It's all automatic, you know. ‘Maybe that's why we don't want Congress to pass any resolution against them in our house. Everybody who made a speech against them on the Hill was a Democrat. “The Republicans are sharp enough, I guess, to get things for themselves, especially free telephone numbers. Oklahoma Favors Progress. “My wife says I ought not to kid any Senators about their telephones when my own stumps me, but I say I have the systerg down pat. “Where I come from we're in favor of progress. We all boost Oklahoma and Oklahomans—take that boy Soucek. He's a native of my State, and I would boost him only he don't need a boost. “Give that boy an airplane and a can of oxygen and he'll go plenty high without a boost. When I heard he broke the world altitude record, I took off my hat and gave three cowboy yips. ;{ou can't keep a good Oklahoman fown. “Of course, Walter Johnson didn't come from Oklahoma. This may have been the fault of his parents, though. Anyhow I guess he's showing them that as a fox hound owner he's the best base ball manager in the league. “Wish I could see Washington play, but I've got to go back to New York today. I came here by train yester- day and now I've got to go back by train, at about your airplane pas- senger service here? Not the Air Capital. “This is the Capital of the Nation, but not the air capital.

A petition signed by mere than 1,000 men of the Georgetown Citizens' Asso- ciation, asking for a branch public library for their section of the city, was presented to the Board of Com- missioners on the front steps of the District Building this morning. When Isaac B.

She has been fighting for recognition of women for many years. Commissloner Reichelderfer smiled impartially at both parties and assured them of his interest in the project. He pointed out that the Commissioners are considering an estimate calling for $35,000 for the purchase of a site for a branch library 1932 fiscal year.
