A stooped and gray old man may be seen strolling around a yard at Wis- consin avenue and Thirty-seventh street, pausing now and then to con- template the old red-brick house which stands on the corner. For 58 years that yard has been his, and for most of that period the house has been his home. In it his five children, four of his 14 grandchildren and two of his three great-grand- children have played. And now it is about to be torn down to make way for the extension of Calvert street. Paces Yard He Loves. ‘The thought saddens its owner, Louis Schnelder, 80 years old, and that is why he spends so much of his t:me pacing the yard—because he wants to see as much of his old home as possible before it is no more. Mr. Schneider was only 22 years old when he and his wife, Mrs. Ozella Schneider, moved into a house which stood but a few feet from the site of the aged man's present home. ‘The place was owned by David Green, a butcher, by whom Mr. Schneider was employed. Within a few years, Mr. Schneider and his brother, the late John C. Schneider, had saved enough money to buy the house and the two-acre tract on which it was located. The Schneiders lived in the Green dwelling until twin houses of the semi- | detached type were built next door. They then moved into the new homes, and the old building was demolished. Retired Twenty Years Ago. And Mr. Schneider has been there ever since, carrying on his butcher busi- ness until about 20 years ago, when he retired. With the exception of one daughter, Mrs. Lillian M. Trueworthy, all of Mr. Schneider's children have established homes elsewhere. Trueworthy, her son, daughter and two grandchildren still live there, how- ever. They, too, are saddened by the | prospect_of " having to vacate the old house. Mr. Schneider’s other children are Mrs. Mary Kingla, Louis M. Schneider, Mrs.” Madeline G. Hanson and James Raymond Schneider. Mr. Schnelder’s wife died three years ago, about two years after the proposal to_extend Calvert street was made. The proposal was bitterly contested by owners of property o situated as to | be affected by the extension. After con- | siderable controversy which involved litigation, however, the project was defi- nitely decided upon @#nd condemnation proceedings were begun. Mr. der’s home was appraised at $16,000. Feels Home Is Doomed, ‘There is a possibility enough of the house may be left standing to justify remodeling it, as the street, according to the present plans, would cut through the building at an angle which would leave a triangular-shaped portion of the dwelling standing. is_not optimistic Mr. Schneider about this, however. He feels that his | old home is doomed, and that he might just as well reconcile himself to the fact that he will have to spend the re- mainder of his life amid new and strange surroundings. Just where that will be, he has not yet decided. “Although I've been told work on the extension will get under way pretty |soon,” he said, “I'm not going to make any plans until I get my 30 days’ notice to vacate. There's no use being in a hurry to leave home—especially one in which you've spent.most of your life and which you have learned to love.” TWO MARINES BURIED Privates, Killed in Nicaragua, In- terred at Arlington.

Its captains, ashore and afloat, were in agreement on this point today, but on little else. Individual catches have been growing smaller, and many of the men Who brave the North Atlantic's fury to Teap the harvest of the deep say there no longer are as many or as fine fish in e sea. Those still engaged in the ancient hook-and-line method claim a shortage has been brought about by wasteful operations of the modern steam trawl- ers. Can't Operate at Profit. The Massachusetts Fisheries' Asso- clation has statistics to show that no shorthge exists, that the fish brought to port last year actually represented an increase. But the fact remains many trawlers are idle now because they can= not_operate at a profit. The trawl, shaped like a coin purse, is dragged along the floor of the ocean, and into its maw go fish of all sizes and many varieties, The whole mass is Schnei- | chyrned so violently that there is mo 2 WASHINGTONIANS ON VISITING BOARD Rear Admiral Cone and A.

Sometimes a 2,000-pound haul of a trawl ylelds but 500 pounds of sizeable fish. The balance goes overboard. Return to Hand Lines. At present the picturesque hand liners seems to have the best of the argu- ment. Their expenses, especially those who use sail to any appreciable extent, are low. But the steam trawler must stock $2,000 a week to cover operating expenses before a profit can be shown. At 3 to 7 cents a pound, sometimes a little more, $2,000 means & good many pounds of fish. Indications are that many fishermen are returning to hand lines. Through this method virtually every fish is of marketable size. ‘The hand liners are prone to remind the steam trawlers that at many Euro- peah fishing ports, from which trawlers have been operating for half a century, virtually all fish now landed are so small they would be considered unmar- ketable here. The first trawler came to Boston in 1906. SOVIET PETROLEUM PRODUCTION GROWS Russia, With 31 Per Cent Ad- vance in Year, Hopes Even- tually to Lead the World. By the Associated Press. MOSCOW, February 7.—Soviet Rus- sia, which in 1927 produced only a little more than 5 per cent of the world's petroleum, hopes some day to lead the world and cites the figures of steadily increasing output as promise of the fu- ture. Official figures revealed to the Asso- clated Press today by 8. M. Ganshin, chairman of the Soviet Oil Co., showed a total output for the 12 months end- ing December 31, 1930, of 18,651,000 metric tons. This was a 31 per cent ad- vance over 1929, when production amounted to 14,167,000 tons. The pre- revolution peak was in 1913, when 9,215,911 metric tons were produced. M. Ganshin said that the plans for the 12 months of 1931 envisaged an in- crease of at least 45 per cent over 1930, which, if achieved, will make Russian production just about double what it 1951—PART ON f¥:third tn ing next bel Venezuela. Expects Greater Export, Commenting that 1930 petroleum ex- ports were about 31 per cent of pro- duction, M. Ganshin said: “While our exports naturally will increase, our actual export percentage of total pro- duction will tend to decrease because of the great demand in our own coun- try for oil” Russia’s principal petro- leum customers now are Italy, England, France and Germany. “We will continue our policy of strengthening business relations with independent countries and maintaining by all possible means our connections with countries which produce no oil of their own,” Ganshin said. same time we will develop our distrib- uting machinery abroad and will not refuse to maintain friendly relations with those branches of the world where leum production, rank- d the United States and we have established commercial con- tacts in the past.” He pointed out that “while the oil output of all capitalistic countries with the exception of Rumania declined last year, Soviet Russia had a record-break- mg&roducuon increase of 31 per cent. Dus the past 10 years the average mntun increase has been 17 to 18 per cent. Local Consumption Lagged. “In 1930 both internal consumption of petroleum and exports advanced by 25 per cent over the previous year. It is highly important to note that for a number of years the increase of Soviet Union oil for export regularly exceeded in proportion the increase of internal consumption. was in 1929. The Soviet Union already ‘The increase in internal consumption harm than good. Easy to install and Yire\ile\iie Xi/\i/aVi Your Office omfortable?
