' WANTS SOAY WeEk FORALL .. O Senator Walsh Proposes Plan as Aid in Unemployment Situation. A five-day week for all branches of the Government service was. proposed today in a bill presented by Senator | David 1. Walsh, Democrat, of Massa- | chusetts as an aid to the unemploy-i ment situation. Under the Walsh bill | the plan would be effective for one year | and would authorize the President to | continue it for another year, in his dis- | cretion. | In a statement, Walsh said the pro- posal of the administration for speeding ; up public works was “all very well as | far as it goes.” | “At best, however,” he added, “such | & program reaches. only laborers, arti- | sans and building material industrtes | and is of no help in furnishing employ- | ment for the so-called white-collar | worker, who belongs to a class which | is in the aggregate a very large ele- | ment of the unemployed.” | Walsh asserted the Government “has & magnificent opportunity to set an ex- | ample to private business to put into practice its own preachings.” | “By puttig the Government service in the present emergency on a five-day- | week basis, without any reduction in ex- isting rates of pay,” he said, “it will | create more jobs at a time when jobs | are sorely needed.” | | —— GUN CAUSES ARREST Washington Man Taken Into Cus- tary at Bladensburg.

RESENTING selections both old and new, Gardiner, former ballerina with the famous Pavlowa, and one of the leading exponents of the dance in this city, gave a recital Jast night at the Wardman Park Theater, u{]flawd by some of her ad- vanced pupils. e By far the most stimulat- ing of the vari- ous dence moods expressed was “Haunted.” with music by Pou- lenc. 1In this, Miss Gardiner was at her best, which is very good Indeed, be- ing not only grace personi- fied, but even in the less rhyth- mie moments strikingly faith- ful to the ex- igencies of the music. Bizarre in theme and intterpreted with an originality always vital, “Haunted” seemed far above most of the other numbers. Beginning with a series of three “Chepiniana,” danced by Alice Hunter, Ann Vucinovich and Maurine Mulliner, and a solo sclection, ‘Waltz.” by Kathryn Mullowney, e only soloist other ttan Miss Gardiner, the first group came to an end with arlwhat hackneyed “Le Cygne,” which, however, the audience found great favor in. From there on there was the “Polka, 1880,” one of Miss Gardi- ner's most picturesque dances, the “Spiritual,” "done to chantings of “Deep River,” which, for some rea- son, fell lamentably short, and the “Biue Danube,” a light, fantastic and attractively draped dance con- ception with = Strauss’ immortal music. In the last section the Spa Gypsy dance, “Zambra,” lent a g: note to the affair as did the Mex- ican “Danza Yaqui” jn which plumes, feathers and costumes that Lisa Gardiner, Every Woman Can Wear New Rayon Tweedy Crepe S|.25 yard Small patterns make these printed crepes most desirable for wear under Winter coats.

MODIR.N compositions, for the most part new to his lsteners, were played by Ronald Eicher, young Washington pianist, | yesterday evening in a recital in the chapel of the Weeley M. E. Church, Connecticut avenue and Jocelyn straet. Selections from Nomancos' opera, “Egypt,” which is in the mood of a mock tragedy, was the opening num- ber. “Egypt” is one of the very few compositions of Nomancos that has been published in this country, al- though his works are quit: success- ful in Europe. “The Fountains of Gizeh" and “Boats on the Nile,” two other sel=ctions played by Mr. Eicher. afforded an insight into the capablifties of this young “The Fountains of Gizeh” proved a sparkling picture and “Boats on the Nile” a barcarolle.

There is no monotony, however, they are all the more distinctive for being con- servative—and have all the earmarks of imported patterns. Black, green, brown and blue backgrounds have well- spaced patterns or all-over patterns of dots, with spaced larger motifs. The color combinations are individual and rich—the price is lower than usual. 33.50 Silk-and-Wool Crepe 5|.50 A far lower price for a far better fabric—in fact, this identical fabric formerly sold for a much higher price.
