ANERCAN CREED DAY 1S SET FROAY Patriotic Organization to Ob- serve Anniversary of Page’s Work. Due to the co-operating efforts of na- tional patriotic organizations, inspired by a District chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution, next Fri- day will be observed as the American Creed’s day in Washington and through- out the country. This will be the thirteenth anniver- sary of the date when the American’s Creed, written by Willam Tyler Page, clerk of the House of Representatives, was adopted by Congress as the embodi- ment of every true American’s bellef. Hereafter on every April 3 patriotic so- cleties will dedicate the day to the preservation and teaching of those prin- ciples. Wamen Started Move. The women to viom most credit is ®ue in launching the Nation-wide ob- servance comprise the membership of Continental Dames Chapter of the D. A. R, of which Miss Helen E. Stout is the regent. It was on the resolution of this chapter in the last Continengal Congress of the D. A. R, that April 3| was approved as a day of special ob= ! servance. Since then many other patriotic or- | ganizations have indorsed the move- ment, notably the Sons of the Ameri- can Revolution, the Children of the American Revolution, Sons of the Revo- lution, Daughters of 1812, the National Defense Council and its affiliated or- ganizations and others. More recent in- dorsements have come from the Daugh- ters of American Colonists and the Daughters of Founders and Patriots of America. Mrs. John Laidlaw Buel, national president of ';ha P;I{”l?:t!rol‘ltl;‘d.‘ +4 in pledging the su) organi- ut:)‘n, said “the ideals of American Government as expressed in the Creed should have wide, constant publicity, at a time when so many undermining mm are H;t M‘mk 'ln G:ur eo\mtryk our principles of vernment.” “It is supremely necessary,” she added, “to express the faith that is ours in the justice and righteousnes of those prin- ciples.” May Be Sent as Greeting. ' Owing to thé fact that April 3 is Good Priday, in the midst of holy week, no attempt will be made to hold publie exercises in connection with the Amer- jcan Creed's day here.

Prodigies Flooded With Offers of Aid Several Willing to Adopt Children of Teacher Who Contemplated Suicide. By the Assoclated Press. NEW YORK, April 1.—Drama came to Avenue C today in limousines, by telegraph and fn policepatrols. It was the case of the George Naidens and their talented children, Nathan, 3, and David, 4. The offer of Naiden Monday to give the children in adoption, stipulating that he must have $1,000 to get on his feet and that the children must be cared for properly and their musical talent cultivated, brought gifts of food and eclothing and offers of adoption. One offer of help came from Gustave Hartman, president of the Israel Or- phan Asylum, who offered a home for that the parents would see them as often as they wished and might reclaim them at any time circumstances per- mitted. Naiden, a music teacher, formerly was & bantamweight boxer under the name at the death-bed request of his mother, Friends sald he had been unsuccessful in his teaching partly because many of his pupils were from poor families whom he would not press for collection. ‘The Naidens, before appealing for as- sistance, sald they had considered sui- cide, but realized that their insurance was too little to care for the children.

FARM NARKETING ACT REPEAL ASKED Atlantic Cotton Association Speaker Labels Board an Economic Stupidity. | By the Associated Press. BAVANNAH, Ga., April 1.—A resolu- | ton advocating repeal of the agricul- | tural marketing act was adopted by the | Atlantic Cotton Assoclation yesterday | at the closing session of its convention. ‘The association elected L. E. Bashin- sky of Birmingham, Ala., president, suc- ceeding Dameron Willlams of Gastonia, |N. C., and decided to hold its 1932 con- vention jointly in the cities of Gastonia and Charlotte, N. C. The convention will meet one day in one city and the second day in the.other. Other officers elected are: T, J. Ho- gan, NorfolksVa., first vice president, and . R. Coker, Hartsville, 8. C., second vice president. New directors include Josenh Walker, Columbia, 8. C.; C. D. Mclver, Charlotte, and T. J. Hogan, Norfolk. ‘The resolution urging repeal of the marketing act came after a number of ers at the convention, including the retiring president, had assailed the act and its administration by the Fed- eral Farm Board. The resolution advo- cated the “withdrawal of the Govern- ment from business.” Speakers charged that the aet had “utterly failed” to help the American farmer and that the administration of the act had actually contributed to a decline in the price of cotton. Walter Parker of New Orleans, eco- nomic counsel of the American Cotton Shippers’ Association and one of the speakers at the convention's concluding session, said, “In all history, o far as I know, there is no parallel for the de- liberate economic stupidity put into force in the form of the Federal Farm Board’s policies.” He said the “only beneficiary under the Farm Board's policies is the foreign cotton producer.” To inaugurate the $3,000,000 anti- flood Harts Commissioner of Works Lansbury dug up muddy soil at West Ham, England, recently. , Jord privy seal, and First Suits & Overcoats Cleaned & Pressed. . 75(: 814 14th St. N.W. 5602 Conn.
