=» RARE U. 5. ORCHIDS T0 BE SHOWN HERE Federal Horticulturist Re- calls Recent Developments of Rare Flower. The favored belle, whose popularity | is frequently attested by the wearing of that costly floral parasite, the orchid, is probably little aware that she has pinned to her gown a blossom which ‘was unknown 75 years ago. Dr. David Lumsden, horticulturist of the Department of Agriculture, who will be one of the judges of the exhibition to be held at the Willard Hotel by the American Orchid Society Thursday, Friday and Saturd: recalls some in- teresting facts relative to the blossom which aristocrat of the flower world. Crossing Believed Impossible. “The crossing of flower species was | believed impossible 75 years Lumsden said, “and when it was learned | that John Dominy, an Englishman, | with the firm of Sir Harry Veitch of | London, had successfully proved his | th that a hybrid orchid could be produced from crossing two native species, Sir Harry exclaimed, ‘Dominy, you will drive the botanists mad.'” However, Dominy not only did not “dwive the botanists mad,” but, accord- “’f to bumsden, he started the intensive cultivation of the exotic parasite, which, carried down to the present day, has produced the most interbred and highly | cultivated plant in_the world. It takes six years, explained the horticulturist, to produce an orchid blossom from the planted seed. Some of the flowers which will be exhibited at the orchid show here are the eleventh generation descended from | the blossom which resulted from John Dominy’s experiment in 1853. ‘The orchid, which takes so long to cultivate and is of extremely fragile character, has now become such a costly flower, that its raising is only possible to horticulturists or persons of wealth. . One Collection Worth $15,000,000. One orchid grower alone, A. C. Bur- rage of Boston, values his collection of orchids at $15,000,000, One plant, to be exhibited at the show, is worth $10,000, bringing the value of a single blossom up to the three and four figure mark. In all, the show here will be a million-dollar affair. A icularly interesting exhibit at the s will be that of Mrs. William du Pont of Wilmington, Del., who will contribute some of her famous blue orchids. There are only two genera of blue orchids in the world, and Mrs. du Pont’s specimens will be the only Fall-blooming species. The blue orchid is indigenous to Burma, India. A rare feature of the show will be an exhibit of perfumed orchids. As a rlle, the orchid is without fragrance, and for that reason is not always as popular as its sisters, the rose or the violet. But horticulturists have now uced an ed orchid by cross- m:mt but highly per- described as being of the fragrant lila valley. Special Cars Chartered. Special cars have been chartered by Dr. George Moore, director of the Mis- souri Botanical Gardens, to bring his magnificent collection from St. Louis. Cut flowers, contributed by Dr. John Brasted of Anaheim, Calif., will be flown in airplanes from the West Coast. Collections exhibited by orchid growers of Boston, New York and Philadel, as well as other Eastern citles, 1 be brought to Washington in large vans. Names prominent in the social and financial circles of the country will be found among the contributors to the Orchid Show. Awards to the value of hibitors. A gold medal has been do- nated by W. H. Jewel and silver cups have been donated by Albert C. Bur- rage, Mrs. William K. du Pont, Mrs. Pierre 8. du Pont and Mrs, F. E. Dixon. Among other prizes to be competed 3o: will be gold medals of the Massa- chusetts Horticultural Society, the New York Horticultural Society, the New Jersey Florists' Association, the Ameri- can Orchid Soclety's gold, silver and bronze medals and silver trophies.

URGED TO RELAX MONROE DOCTRINE| Bhould Let Latin American Na-| tions Settle Issues With Europe Directly, Says Professor. By the Associated Press. JACKSONVILLE, Ill, October 11.— Prof Willlam 8. Robertson of the Uni- versity of Illinois told the Institute on Pan-American Relations today that it will probably be better for North America to let South American nations ht out their own difficulties with ropean countries than to invoke the fonroe Doctrine. “There have been 50 many attempts sn the part of the United States to inifest its good intentions by the lonroe Doctrine, which have resulted 1ll feelings that perhaps if we would [ it and let our sister nations solve their own difficulties they might become Stronger.” ‘The Institute is being held at Mc- Murray and is managed by Chester D. ley of Peekskill, N, Y., banker-philanthropist.

Painting Hangs in Capitol. Mr. Heaton, who won international | recognition as a painter, achieved the distinction of having one of his paint- ings purchased by the Governmeént in 1883. This large canvas, known as “The Recall of Columbus,” is now hang- ing in the Senate wing of the Capitol Bullding, gallery floor, facing the paint- ing of “The Battle of Lake Erie.” Another of Mr. Heaton's paintings, containing 18 figures, “Promoters of the Library of Congress,” is in the local Young Men's Christian Association on the wall of the marble stairway. Mr. Heaton was en route from his Summer home at Black Mountain, near Asheville, N. C, on a Northern trip when he was taken ill. He was visiting at the home of his secretary, Mrs. John S. Moran, 3521 Thirty-sixth street, Mount Rainier, Md., when he became 50 ill that he was taken to Sibley Hos- pital. - The end came suddenly from heart failure about 2 o'clock yesterday morning. His son, Dr. Heaton, at Chap- paqua, was notified, and arrived yester- | day afternoon to take charge of ar- | rangements. The artist had planned to | go on to Philadelphia to visit friends, and then was going to see his son in New York State before returning to his | home at West Palm Beach, Fla., for the | Winter.

AUGUSTUS GOODYEAR HEATON. EXPOSITION PLAN OUTLINED BY DARR Industrial Show Help to Cap- ital Beauty, Radio Audi- ence Told. Scouting as fallacious the view that an industrial exposition is a definite step toward conversion of Washington from a city of beauty to one of tower- ing factories, belching chimneys and “‘other accourtrements of an industrial community,” Charles W. Darr, presi- dent of the Washington Chamber of Commerce, in an address broadcast over Station WMAL last night, outlined plans for the 1930 Industrial Expo- sition which will be held in the Wash- ington Auditorium the week of Novem- ber 3. The promotion of the exposi- tion is a definite part of the five-year expansion program recently announced by the chamber, Mr. Darr said. “The Washington Chamber of Com- merce,” the speaker sald, “is keenly concerned with protecting the beauty, charm and unique spirit that is so pe- culiar to the Capital. Washington, as the Capital City of the United States, should be second to none in magnin- cence. Work to Be Provided. “At the same time, however, Darr said, “a well balanced community must be able to sustain itself eco- nomically. It must provide work for its boys and girls as well as for its men and women. It must have a firmly functioning economic structure through which it can grow and prosper in pro- portion to the growth and greatness of the Federal Government itself. That this growth can be accomplished with- out detriment to the beauty of the city and that it can very definitely add to the community’s weil-being is the con- viction of the Chamber of Commerce. “This conviction has been vindicated during the past few years. Washing- ton's private business and industrial enterprises are gaining new strength and vigor and they are increasing in number and in volume of their output. Place for Development. “There is a place in the District for the sound development of & great va- riety of business and industrial enter- prises which can go forward hand in hand with the development of the com- munity as the seat of the Federal Gov- ernment.” In concluding his radio talk Mr. Darr outlined the many exhibits plan- ned for the sixth annual exposition, which include displays of lighting and heating by gas and electricity, acces- sories for use in these fields, utilities of transportation and telephone organi- zations, office equipment, house fur- nishings, palatable products, and the like. A’ feature of the exposition will ,|be an exhibit by the Typothetae of Washington, which will incorporate ex- hibits of the Government Printing Office and the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. A typewriting and shorthand mmlndmllka"mm are also planned for the e: HIGH STAFF POST Becomes Deputy Chief Under McArthur—Admiral Clu- verius Promoted. Important changes in assignments in the Army and Navy were made yester- day when Maj. Gen. Ewing E. Booth, assistant chief of staff for supply at the War Department, was detailed by direction of President Hoover as deputy chief of staff of the Army, and Rear Admiral Wat Cluverius was as- signed by the Navy Department as chief of staff of the commander-in-chief of the United States Fleet. Gen. Booth relieves Maj, Gen. Pres- ton Brown, who has been’ assigned to the Panama Canal military department, the change effective at once. Gen. Brown has arranged to sail from New Orleans for the Panama Canal Zone November 15. Change Effective Shortly. Admiral Cluverius, now commanding battleship division No. 2 of the Scout- ing Fleet, is to take over his new duties on November 3 aboard the flagship U. S. S. Texas, i The selection of Gen.

Douglas McArthur, recently desig- nated @s chief of stafl, who is ex- pected to reach here and assume that office early in November at the expira- | tion of the term of Gen. Charles R.| Summerall, Gen. Booth, a native of Missouri, served with distinction in the Spanish- American War and the World War. He began his military service as a cap- tain in_the lst Colorado Infantry in | May, 1898, and served in the World | War as & brigadier general in the National Army. He was commissioned | in the Regulai Army as a first lieu- | tenant of Cavalry in February, 1901, | and reached the grade of major general | in December, 1929. He is an_honor | graduate of the Infantry and Cavalry | Schools and a graduate of the Army | War College and the General Stafl College. . Gen. Booth is married and resides at the Willard Hotel. Born in New Orleans. A native of New Orleans, where he was born December 25, 1874, Admiral Cluverius was a naval cadet aboard the U. S. 8. Maine when the vessel was sunk in Havana Harbor on February 15, 1898. For his part in laying mines in the North Sea during the World War as the skipper of the U S. S. Shawmut, _Admiral Cluverius was awarded ~the Distinguished Service He was commandant of midshipmen at the Naval Academy from 1919 to 1921 and attended the Naval War Col- lege in 192} and 1922. Following duty as commanding officer of the U. S. S. Seattle Admiral Cluverius came to ‘Washington and served in the office of naval operations, part of the time as aide to the Becretary of the Navy. In 1926 he commanded the battle- ship West Virginia and then became commandant of the Norfolk, Va., Navy Yard. Last Summer Admiral Cluverius was in command of the midshipman practice cruise, FARM WAGES DROP WITH EXCESS LABOR Extensive Business Depression De- clared Reflected in Surplus of Workers. By the Associated Press. Poor crop prospects, declines in farm product prices and a 40 per cent excess of farm labor brought farm wages on October 1 to the lowest level since January, 1923. The Department of Agriculture said yesterday the excessive supply of farm hands “is a reflection of the contin- uance of the present extensive business depression which has scattered unem- ployed industrial workers throughout agricultural sections in search of a live- 1thood.” “The supply is in excess of the de- mand in all geographical sections,” the report continued, “ranging from an ex- cess of 24 per cent in the north Atlantic States to 49 per cent in the South Cen- tral States.” The farm wages index on October 1 ‘was placed at 150 per cent of the 1910~ 1914 pre-war level. This index reflected a drop of 10 points since July 1 this year and a drop of 24 points since Oc- tober 1, last year. Wages declined from July 1 to October 1 this year, whereas in the past five years there has been an average seasonal advance of 2.6 points during this period. Day wages of farm workers not pro- vided with board now range from abo; $3.50 in the northeastern industria States and $3.40 on the Pacific Coast, down to $1.05 to $1.15 from South Caro- lina to Mississippi. The North Central States show an average of $2.60 per day and the average for the country is $2.12. Parm workers provided with board are recelving an average of $1.61 per day. TWO FLYERS HALT AT ALBUQUERQUE Robert Buck and Laura Ingalls Fight Snow, Rain and Heavy Fog. By the Associated Press. ALBUQUERQUE, N. Mex., October 11.—Fighting snow, rain and fog, which caused suspension of traffic on trans- continental air lines to the West, Rob- ert Buck and Laura Ingalls, fiyers, seeking cross-country records, halted here this afternoon in their race across the United States. Both will remain overnight. Miss Ingalls has 7 hours 13 minutes flying time since she hopped off from Glendale, Calif., yesterday at 6:13 a.m. (Pacific ‘standard time), she reported. Buck's compllation shows he is 39 min- utes ahead of his competitor, with elapsed time totaling 6 hours 34 minutes. Miss Ingalls, 25, of St Louis, holds the world record for executing consec- utive barrel rolls. Earlier in the week she established an East-West trans- continental flight record for women of 30 hours and 27 minutes elapsed time. She is seeking to better this time on a West-East flight. Buck, 16-year-old aviator of Elizabeth, N, J., & few days ago claimed the junior East-West record with a mark of 28 hours, 33 minutes. He is attempting to better the junior West-East record. Chancing to plan their return flights East at the same time, the youth and the woman said they were agreeable to a friendly race and so far have been Uming their take-offs a few minutes apart.

Bob, capitalist and patron of aerial explorations, was the subject of both private and official con- jecture today. Concern was first caused when Bob, who had been scheduled to fly here from | Chicago, failed to arrive. Later his plane | was discovered he had checked out of his hotel on Wednesday. He was flown to Chicago by his regu. lar pilot, Col. Dean Lamb. Business | associates here said he had intended to | return last night with Lamb and Pred- | erick C. Russell, whom they described as his “right-hand man.” After articles concerning Bob were printed in the newspapers, Assistant At- torney General Watson Washburn an- } nounced his office had been seeking Bob | | for several days for information con- | cerning two companies it had under | investigation, the Rainbow Luminous Products Co. and Metal and Mining, Inc. Visit to Office Fruitiess. Washburn sent investigators to Bob's Broadway office today to see if they could discover anything about his whereabouts. In the office which they | said also is the office of the Metal and Mining, they found Ferdinand Pecora, | former first_assistant district_attorney, who is Bob's lawyer, and George L. | Johnson of River Grove, Ill, president of Metal and Mining. Johnson was unable to tell them any- thing about the company, its books and records, the whereabouts of the stocks {in which it dealt or the banks in which | it made deposits. He said Bob was chair- man of the company and its affairs | were completely in his hands. He said | Russell, who went to Chicago with Bob, | was the only other man who knew any: thing about the company. | Last Monday, Washburn said, an | effort was made to subpoena Bob, but | at his offices it was said he had gone to Chic: On Wednesday Pecora called en him and said Bob was detain- ed in Chicago by business. On Thurs- day, Washburn said, Pecora told him Bob was leaving that afternoon for New York and yetserday he told him Bob's plane had broken down at some I;'nn:med place 200 miles from New ork.

The urge to explore has agaln taken Grace Thompson Seton away from her native land to the far-away corners of the globe. This time it is the call of the East. She salled this past week from San Wrancisco for the Orient, where, after a brief stop at Honolulu | she will continue her travels on through | Japan and China, Siam and Malaysia, | probably including in her itinerary the | Philippine Island: Mrs. Seton, who is a keen student of government, s particularly interested to observe conditions in China. In addition to collecting material for future writ- ings, Mrs. Seton will also make | ethnological studies in the lands she | visits. Mrs. Seton first acquired her love of | travel and exploration through her hus band, the famous naturalist, Ernest | Thompson Seton, whom she accom- i panied on his quests for information concerning wild animals and thel haunts. About 10 years ago, however, Mrs. Seton entered the fleld of ex- | ploration on her own behalf. | " In the Summer of 1926 Mrs. Seton and Mrs. Marshall Field, jr., were the first white women to set foot in certain remote parts of South America visited by the expedition conducted under the auspices of the Field Museum of Natural History of Chicago, of which the two women were members. She is reputedly the only woman to have visited the Chaco reglon in Paraguay. where she collected some interesting animal species. She crossed the Andes into Chile. Bolivia and Peru, where she studied the remains of the ancient Incas. Upon her present journey, Mrs. Seton will visit Cambodia and the mysterious ruins of Angkor, as well as the out-of- | the-way places of Sunda and Banda | Archipelag As national president of the National League of American Pen Women, as well as by her numerous writings, Mrs. Seton is widely known in Washington.
