PHOTOS OF FRANCE SHOWN BY HOLMES National Geographic Society Sees lllustrated Lecture on Land of Beauty. | France of the gay nineties, France of war times, and France of today passed in review in motion picture and col- ored latern slides when Burton Holmes, Jecturer and traveler, spoke before the National Geographic Society in the: Washington Auditorium last night. | Beginning with the boat trip from | ‘America, and the landing in a French | port, Mr. Holmes took his listeners down along the Eastern coast of France, calling at the fashionable watering places, such as Deauville, Biarritz and Paul, then swung_along ‘the base of the Pyrennees in the Basque country tp Carcasonne, and back through Rheims, Chateau Thierry and Paris, { Carcasonne Is Medieval. France is still the land of beauty, @nd romance, Mr. Holmes told his audience. Perfect highways make every section of the country accessible to the visitor, and good hotels, hospitality and matchiess cuisine beckon the traveler on_every hand. Most satisfying of all French cities to Jovers of the picturesque and romantic 4s the walled and turreted City of Carcasonne, on the Canal du Midi, Southern France. The older part of | this_town stands today very much as| it did in_the Middic Ages and some | parts of it date back 2,000 years. It was an_important place when it was| captured by the legicns of Rome, and | its draw .bridges nave creaked to men marching in chain mail as well as to| modern motor_cars. Within the walls 4s a modern hotel, but it is built on lines in keeping with the medieval character of the rest of the city Shows Lafayette Chateau. Mr. Holmes paid tribute to the Amer- fcans who have made possible the gestoration of the chateau cf Lafayette. fThe grounds and the interior of this old seat, deep in rural France, havg n completely restored. .

GRANDVILLE, Mich., Novem- ber 28 —Officials of this village are trying to interest some wicked city in its late Victorian model jail, calaboose type, practically as new. The jail was inside the village hall and was left intact when that building was torn down re- cently to make way for a new structure. It was decided there was no further need for the hoosegow, S0 the city wants to get it out of the way. The price is $100 cash. PLANES MAY HELP 10 RESCUE INDIANS U. S.

GRAIN BEARS HELD |DEMOCRATS EXPECT HELP T0 FARMERS Exchange Head Tells Senate Committee Short Sales Benefit. By the Associated Press. Short selling was defended before the Senate Agricultural Committee today by the grain exchanges Stedel C. Harris, chairman of the Committee on Na‘ional Affairs of the Grain Exchange, also contended the exchanges have benefited the farmer and the Agricultural Department has authority to “provide fully against any abuses which' might conceivably creep into the present system.” He pointed out the exchanges them- selves have committees which co-oper- | ate with the Government to prevent abuses. “To depatt from the long and settled practice of short selling of grain at this time, when the amount of short selling of grain is negligible, would :n the judgment of the exchanges be greatly prejudicial not only to a trade itself,” but” to the interests of the farmers. Speculation Curb Hit. “Anything which tends to curtail or eliminate the speculative market cor- respondingly interferes with the ability of the merchandiser to shift his risk,” the witness put it. Senator Frazier. Republican, of North Dakota, contended short selling is “pure gambling that kills the law of supply and demand and does away with a fair market.” Harris replied he did not think so, because the Grain Stabilization Cor- poration—armed with $500,000,000— had been unable to maintain the price and it was lllogical to believe that a few individuals without any such sum could control the prices. Speculation, he said, shifts the risk from the pro- ducer to those who want to bear it. Act Repeal Asked. The Senate committee is investi- gating the Farm Board, with a more searching inquiry in the future looming if developments warrant. Repeal of the agricultural marketing act was demanded by F. M. Meclntyre, representing the Eastern Federation of Feed Merchants. Office that he needed assistance in res- cuing some of his wards who were ma- rooned south of Ramah, between Crown Point and the railroad. His telegram was the first indication the Indian Office had received that the Eastern Navajo Reservation had been | affected. A similar authorization was given Stacher. 400 FACING STARVATION. Food at Fort Also Is Exhausted as Refugees Come From Mesa. GALLUP, N. M., November 28 (#).— Famine today arose to confront Indian and white rescue workers in the stricken areas of Western New Mexico, where | 9 Indians have died and between 300 | and 400 pinon nut hunters are still missing, following last Saturday’s bliz- zard. The bodies of a Navajo Indian and | Two Indians, whose names previcusly had been included in the death toll were found alive, but dangerously ill from | exposure. Supt. John H. Hunter of the South- ern Navajo jurisdiction at Fort De- fiance, Ariz, ‘said he would appeal to ‘Washington for relief of the Indians of his jurisdiction. The small lupplym :;. baby were reached last night. corn at Fort Deflance has dwine away. Snow Plows Sent to Open Trail. Hunter dispatched three snow plows from Fort Deflance to break a trail for the Indians’ sheep to new forage areas. The flocks, he said, were trapped in remote mountain sections with no food. Indian officials are faced with three immediate problems. They must round up all the Indians scattered from Zuni to Quemado, 200 miles to the south. They must bring in those Indians whose horses are dead. They must get all the Indians back to their homes. Refugees Sent Home. Supt. W. A. Trotter of the Zunl Agency, has ruled that Navajos seeking refuge ‘at Zuni may remain only 24 hours and then must be started toward The Zuni Agency, he ex- plained, is in no better shape for food their homes. than the Navajo Agency. While Trotter and Hunter believed h passed with the arrival of milder weather, both pointed out that a sudden temperature drop yet might cause heavy casualties among the Indians who are still on the that the real emergency has mesa. J. Earle Roberts, representing the National League of Commission Mer- chants, testified economic warfare be- tween producers and distributors is fomented by the farm act. He said dealers and handlers of perishable products had furnished from 40 to 60 per cent of the credit needed by pro- ducers of these commodities. “Unalterable opposition” to the agri- cultural marketing act, which set up the Farm Board, was expressed by C. S. Poole, president of the New York | Mercantile Exchange. Members of his | organization feel the act has over- looked the constitutional fundamentals —liberty and justice—he added. Two field generals of the Farm Board defended their tactics on the wheat and cotton battlefronts in testimony yes- terday before the committee. E. F. Creekmore, $75000-a-year gen- eral manager of the Cotton Stabiliza- tlon Corporation and the American Cotton Co-operative Association, told the committee the farmers’ benefit from stabilization was worth its cost. George S. Milnor, $50,000-a-year gen- eral manager of the Grain Stabilization Corporation and the Farmers' National Grain Corporation, ~testified to the financial success of the co-operative movement. Board’s Removal Asked. Meanwhile another demand for aboli- tion of the board came from Senator Bulkley, Democrat, of Ohio. On his re- turn to the Capital yesterday he de- scribed the board's stabilization opera- tions as a “dismal fallure.” He added he would like to see the co-operative activities continued, but said that func- tion of the board could be transferred to the Agriculture Department. Creekmore not only defended the cot- ton stabilization operations, but said losses sustained in them—now estimated on paper at $185,000,000—may have been recovered quickly had the Farm Board had the financial strength to take advantage of the present situation. He also welcomed the investigation of the Farm Board proposed by the Amer- ican Cotton Shippers’ Association Wed- nesday and urged that it include the co-operative association and the cotton shippers. - - = “The boot and shoe industry of the Irish Free State has a shortage of skilled workers, to Loan on MONEY .= 5ur.

VIGTORY IN' JERSEY Look for Majority of 5,000 in House Seat Race in Fifth District. By the Assoctated Press. Democrats here are confident of capturing the fifth New Jersey con- gressional district at a special election Tuesday, by about 5000 votes. Victory in this normally Republican district “would increase ~their scant majority in the House and make all but certain their organization of that branch in the coming Congress. The new line-up would give the Democrats 219; Republicans, 214; Farmer Laborites, 1, and leave but one vacancy. The election was necessitated by the death of Representative Ernest R. Ackerman, Republican, who won in 1930 by a 33,000 majority. In the re- cent gubernatorial election, A. Harry Moore, Democrat, won the district by more tkan 10,000, indicating a turn- over of 43,000 votes. Both Candidates Are Wet. Percy Stewart of Plainfield, the Democratic candidate for Ackerman's seat, was unopposed in the primary after party forces secured the with- drawal of opponents. The Republican candidate, Donald McLean of Elizabeth, was one of four primary candidates, and has had the difficult problem of harmonizing party factions. As both candidates are anti-prohibi- tionists, and Ackerman was a dry, whatever the outcome the House wet bloc will be increased by one. The Democrats and wets have made big strides in the recent special elec- tions. Only last Tuesday, in & special election, Richard M. Kleberg, Democrat and modificationist, was elected in the fourteenth Texas district. Democrats Score in Voting. Out of five elections November 3, the Democrats won three, one in the Re- publican State of Michigan, an outright turnover. All five returned anti-pro- hibitionists. Each party has lost by death seven Representatives-elect to the coming Congress. The Democrats have filled all of their vacancles and cap- tured two from the Republicans. The usually Republican seat in the first New Hampshire district will not be filled until a special election on January 5. The Republican majority of 103 in the last Congress was slashed to a bare 2 in the 1930 elections, and that has been more than wiped out by deaths and special elections, Pensions for salaried deaconesses and salaried lay workers engaged in whole- time work of an evangelistic or spiritu- alistic nature in the Church of England have been recommended by the London Diocesan Conference.

COMPROMISE VERDICT GIVEN IN TRAIN DEATH | Killing of Two Near Browns Sta- tion Held Due to “Accident.” | By a Staft Correspondent of The Star. UPPER MARLBORO, Md., Novembet 28.—An “open” verdict was returned by a coroner's jury last night following an inquest into the deaths of Roderick Mil- stead and Miss Carrie Rogers, both of Washington, who were killed when an automobile in which they were riding was in collision with a Chesapeake Beach train at Browns Station Thurs- day night. After nearly two hours’ deliberation the jury returned a verdict which mere- |1y said “that the accident between the Chesapeake Beach train and the auto- mobile of Roderick Milstead was the primary cause of the death of Milstead and Miss Rogers.” Hunting Death Declared Accident. Another Prince Georges County cor- oner’s jury last night decided that the death of Charles T. Connor of Wash- ington, who was killed while hunting at Silver Hill, Md., was an accident. The jury found Connor's gun fell and was discharged when the man slipped in crossing a stream. The shot pierced Connor’s head. Justice of Peace Thomas D. Griffith conducted the inquest. RAILROADS OPPOSE AIDING NEEDY LINES Argue Before I. C. C. That It Would Be lllegal to Carry Out Pooling Plan. ‘The Nation's major carriers argued before the Interstate Commerce Com- mission today that it would be illegal for them to give money to needy rail- roads. Alfred P. Thom, general counsel for the American Rallway Assoclation, opened the plea for modification of the commission’s surcharge pooling plan. ‘Thom said the railroads ccnsidered the commission plan, outlined in the 15 per cent rate increase decision last month, did not specify definitely that ‘€T | the commission intended the surcharge money to be given tc roads in difficul- tles. The commission specified that money derived from surcharges cn freight bills be pooled to pay bond in- terest for lines in trouble. ‘Thom told the commission stock- holders of contributing roads probably would seek to enjoin their directors from giving away ‘“their property” as an illegal diversion of assets. He said the legality of such gifts might well be doubted, because “it can- not be argued that the surcharges would not be the property of the railroads collecting them.” The loan plan outlined by the rail- roads in their petition for modifica- tion, he argued, would accomplish the commission’s purpose. He said the railroads were confident they would get enough assents to their plan to make it workable. ‘The commission on October 20 de- nied the railroads the right to make a blanket increase of 15 per cent in freight rates. It held injustices would be caused and public sentiment adverse to the carriers would be created. As an alternative, the commission said it would approve certain increases by use of surcharges, provided the iail- roads agreed to pool the money to be |derived to care for needs of carriers unable to meet interest on their bonds. The roads were given until Decem- | ber 1 to present a plan for carrying out the commission’s proposal. Last week they suggested amendment of the plan and presented an outline of proposed railroad credit corporation to make loans instead of gifts. They also asked certain changes in methods of applying surcharges and some details that would make administrative work easier.

HEADS PUSH SCHOOL SITEDEAL Education Board Told Reno Land Purchase Is Pro- gressing. The District Commissioners _replied today to the Board of Education’s re- quest for information outlining the status of their attempted purchase of a senior high school site in the Reno section of Chevy Chase. In the reply, addressed to the board | by Daniel Garges, secretary to the Board of Commissioners, the municipal heads asserted they are proceeding with- | out delay in the purchase. They failed, however, to outline the present status of the transaction as requested, and did not refer to reports they would not pur- chase the land until Congress convened. After acknowledging receipt of the | School Board's letter, Mr. Garges’ reply | contained a single sentence referring | specifically to the board’s question. It | was: “The Commissioners desire me to in- form you that they are proceeding with- out delay in the purchase of a site for the proposed senior high school in the Reno section.” At a meeting 10 days ago, the Board | of Education agreed to take a second step iIn its efforts to accelerate purchase of the site, for which an appropriation | of $180.000 has been available since | February. This second step was an | agreement to address a petition to the | Coremissioners for an explanation of | the status of the purchase. It followed a conference with the Commissioner: last month, when a committee of | School Board members made &n urgent appeal for immediate action in the pur- | c ‘hase. At that time it was reported the site had not been purchased because of & “gentlemen’s lg!tflm!l'lf" between mem- bers of Congress. and missioner John C.

P. Chapman at Fairfax. Parnell was driver of the car which Thursday afternoon killed Everett Croson, 68, of Navy, near Dove's store. A coroner’s investigation Thursday night, conducted by Dr. C.
