* ARLINGTON PROUD OF SOUND FINANCES Board Told Possibility of Avoiding Borrowing for Pay Rolls. By 8 Staft Correspondent of The Star. ARLINGTON COURT HOUSE, Va., January 7.—Announcement of the sound ~ condition of the county's finanzes, receipt of an invitation from the State Fee Commission to appear before that body next Tuesday regard- ing recent salary adjustments made , requests for the installation of two additional traffic lights and a re- yort of progress on the proposed “southern” approach to the Arlingten Memorial Bridge featured today’s meet- ing of the county board. While it had been expected that it would be necessary for the board to borrow additional funds on January 15 with which to meet its pay rolls and other obligations, Braden stated that it is now believed possible to avoid the borrowing of funds at least until Feb- ruary 1. The water fund owes the other county funds approximately $16,000, he said, and large collections on quarterly water bills are expected during the month. Also the county expects between $5,000 and $6,000 in gasoline taxes from the State during the month. Previously Invited. Members of the board had previous- 1y been invited to appear before the State Fee Commission regarding base salary increases in the office of the county treasurer and commissioner of revenile, but were forced to decline be- cause of the absence of several officials. County Manager Roy S. Braden and Chairman Harry A, Fellows were desig- nated to represent the board at the meeting, which also will be attended by County Treasurer Charles T. Jesse. F, E. Mann of Cherrydale appeared with a petition requesting the installa- tion of a traffic light at the intersec- tion of the Lee Highway and Mackey street, claiming that traffic is so heavy on the Lee Highway that it is difficult for pedestrians living on the north to reach the school and business houses on the south. There have been many accidents at this point, Mann declared. The board agreed that a light was necessary and authorized the two offi- cials who are going to Richmond on Tuesday to take the matter up with the State Highway Commission, the Lee Highway being a State road. The board was in receipt of two let- ters from the Arlington County OCivic Federation, one asking the installation of a traffic light at the intersection of THE SUNDAY SURVIVOR TO RECITE FAREWELL OF GEN. LEE TO HIS TROOPS Ninety-Year-Old Gen. War- field Figures in Alexandria Program. Confederate Leader’s 126th Birthday Anniversary to Be Observed. By a Btaff Correspondent of The Star. ALEXANDRIA, Va, January 7.— When the 126th birthday anniversary of n. Robert E. Lee is celebrated here January 19 by the local R. E. Lee Camp, Confederate Veterans, Brig. Gen. Edgar Warfield, 90 - year - old Southern veteran of this city, and sole survivor of the 700 soldiers who left here to join the Confederate forces in May, 1861, will again pay tribute to the leader he followed through four years of America’s Civil War by reciting Lee’s farewell address to his troops. | Gen. Warfield, who was brevetted | brigadier general of Virginia Confed- | erate Vetepans last year, has recited Gen. Lee's address over 30 times in his | capacity as adjutant of the camp at the annual banquets in honor of the Con- | federate leader. The camp was organ- | ized July 7, 1884. Hearty Despite Age. | Despite his age, “the Colonel,” as he is often referred to, is hale and hearty and leads an active life, being still en- gaged in the profesion of pharmacy, at which he started when 15 years old. He has been an active pharmacist here for 72 years, and is the oldest druggist in Virginia, both in age and in the number of years in practice. Samuel H. Hilton of Washington, one of the revisers of the Fharmacopoeia of the United States, believes him to be the oldest active pharmacist in the United States. Gen. Warfield also has the distinction of being the only living member of the origital Board of Pharmacy of Virginia, having been ap- pointed by Gen. Fitzhugh Lee when he was Governor of Virginia, and the first and only honorary life president of the Virginia Pharmaceutical Association. One of the two organizers of the Old Dominion Rifles, later Company H, 17th Virginia Regiment, Gen. Warfield, left BRIG. GEN. EDGAR WARFIELD. of his company of 47 were shot down around him. Among his sovenirs of the war are his parole, carefully framed, given him with other Confederate soldiers after the sur- render at Appomattox, and a collection of Confederate money, which he is wont to give away to admirers if they are fortunate enough to get him to talk f;s%ouz the stirring events of the early 5. The principal speakers at the exer- here with the company when 18 years old. He served as private under Lieut. Gen, James Longstreet through the en- tire four years of the war. Although he took part in practically all the major | battles, being present at engagements at | Manassas, Antietam and the battles | around Richmond and Appomattox, he | was never injured. At Antietam 40 men | cises in honor of Gen. Lee are to be Alabama and Andrew Jackson Monta- gue, former Governor of Virginia. R. Samuel Lucketf, commander of the R. E. Lee Camp, Sons of Confederate Vet- erans, will preside. The banquet will be served by the local chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy. the Lee Highway and Glebe road and the other protesting the proposed re- modeling of the clerk’s office to make room for the county treasurer. It took no action upon the first request, but invited representatives to attend a meeting that will be held here at 11 o'clock Monday morning for a further discussion of the clerk’s office problem. The meeting will pe attended by the county manager, treasurer, clerk and a special commitee of the Bar Asso- ciation. Progress on Approach. Chairman Fellows 'said that unusual progress is being made in securing of the necessary rights of way through Government property for the southern approach to the bridge and expects that Congress will pass the necessary legis- lation to permit the construction of the road by the State through property owned by the Federal Government. Two protests against the 60-foot set- back on the Lee ftsoult-\'ard w;r:z {e- ceived, both property awners claiming that.di v:e-po;mme 200-foot right of | deep setback is unnecessary. ts were referred to the Board of Zoning Appeals. The board announced that it would comply with a request by County Mana- ger Braden for the appointment of a building code commission of five mem- bers by the next meeting so that pub- lic hearidgs on & proposed county build- ing tode may be started immediately after the preparation of the budget has been completed.

JOB AID PARLEY MARCH 4 PLANNED Norman Thomas Leads Con- ference Move—‘‘Hunger March” Denied. Under leadership of Norman Thomas, Socialist presidential cancidate, pians are being made for an “unenaluyment relief” conference to be held ‘Wash- ington after March 4 or simultaneously with any special session of the néw Congress, it was announced here yes- terday. Marx Lewis, Socialist leader here, who conferred with Thomas in New York last week, denied that the conference is being planned as a “hunger” march, although he explained that all plans are in such a tentative state he could not tell what program eventually would emerge. The conference or gonvention, he said, is expected to b: to Washing- ton about 2,000 delegates from farm and veteran groups, trades unions and organizations affilisted with the Social- ist party, under whose atispices it is to be_held. Mr. Lewis is national director of or- ganization for the Socialist party and was national treasurer during the last presidential campaign. “Our plans at this time” he said, “contemplate no demonstration, parade or hunger march. It is simply intended to be a confention to discuss unem- ployment relief and_to present a pro- gram to Congress. It is being planned on the assumption that a 1 ses- sion of the new Congress will be called after March 4. Finial approval of plans for the eon- ference, he said, is up to the National Council of the Socialist party. “While we do not expect any more than 2,000 delegates, they will repre- sent groups whose affiliations repre- sent several millions,” Lewis added. “It possible that a great many more 'delegates than we expect will attend, but they will be com™med to Socialist affilia- tions. We don’t want a hunger march to Washington.” Housing arrangements will be made here before the arrival of the groups 50 a8 to avoid any controversy with Dis- trict officials.

America’s Army and Navy now are but skeletonized forces, Louis A, John- son, national commander of the Amer- jcan Legion, warned last night in an address at the annual banquet of the National Sojourners st the Mayflower Hotel. He added that ‘“regardless of our wealth, our intelligence and our courage, our Nation is as weak as our Navy” and . Citing the proposed economies to re- duce funds for National Guard drills from 48 to 24 annually, slashing the number of trainees in the Citizens’ Military Training Camps and the Re- serve Officers’ Training Corps, Mr. Johnson asserted that “so far as econ- omy is concerned, we have only to consider that the size of the b is the ability to bear it.” “What is ordinarily called wealth 18 poverty unless we have an adequate Army and Navy to guard it,” he con- tended. “Having reduced the bulwark of our Regular Army force to the point where it no longer is considered an effective and progressive national defense ele- ment, but simply as a skeleton from which has been sacrificed everything in excess of bare necessities for existence, the approach for reductions now con- cerns Naval Reserves, the National Guard and other civilian units,” he said. “Most types of ships in the Navy are not now fully manned. If war is de- clared, additional ships now in reserve must be used. Skeleton crews must be formed, which further depletes the trained personnel on ships in commis- sion. erefore, when war comes, we d the ships operat with less per- sonnel than in time of peace. If we do not have trained Naval Reserves, then the gaps must be filled with raw recruits.” —_— BANKER IS WOUNDED ST.

GUARD KEEPS RELATIVES AWAY AS ARTIST SKETCHES PONDO GIRL Professor Columbia Handicapped While . Painting in African Hut, but Magis- trate Solves His Problem. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, January 7.—Beneath the blazing sun of East Africa, in a rude hut which served for a studio, a| Columbia University professor sketched the portrait of a Pondo girl. Behind him stood a native constable, menacing club in hand. Through the door peeked awe-struck natives. Dr. A. J. Barnouw, Queen Wilhelmina | professor of Dutch history, language and literature of Columbia, was the artist. The constable was his protec- tion against family curiosity. The tale is one of dozens that add life to an exhibit of Dr. Barnouw's sketches current at the Argent Gal- leries. Girl Assigned to Pose. He traveled through East Africa from January to October last year to study languages under the auspices of the Carnegie Corporation. The Pondo girl he found at Libode during a session before the native magistrate. ‘The magistrate readily assigned the girl to pose, but Dr. Barnouw found, to his dismay, that all her relatives, par- ents, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles and cousins down to the fourth or fifth de- gree considered themselves privileged to crowd into the studio and witness the undertaking. For a while Dr. Barnouw attempted to sketch, but the sun was hot and the hut was small and the artist’s profes- sorial nostrils couldn’t stand the result. He appealed to the magistrate. Constable Put in Hut. The magistrate called the relatives before him. He decided that they should take places outside the door and peek as best they could, their positions to be determined by their de- gree of kinship. To assure that his solution should be carried out he sta- tioned the constable in the hut. Dr. Barnouw is a native of Holland. He studied art there and then drop) it for 20 years while he picked up the knowledge that carried him to a pro- fessorship. Seven years ago he revived his artistic talents and took up the study again in New York. Everywhere he goes, whether it be for linguistic reseach or pleasure, he makes the sketching of portraits an important avocation. From East Africa he brought por- traits of Bushmen, Hottentots, Pondos and Zulus. He also included in the exhibit several portraits of Blackfeet Indians which he sketched two years ago in Montana. MINISTER TO LONDON RECALLED BY PERSIA Report Confirmed by Legation, But Reasons Are Declared Unknown. By the Associgted Press. LONDON, January 7.—The Persian legation today confirmed a report that the Shah had recalled the Persian Minister to London, Mirza Ali Gholi Khan Ansari, but stated that the rea- sons for his recall were not known. Asked whether this was in connection with the Anglo-Persian oil dispute, a legation official reiterated that the rea- sons for the recall were not known. In authoritative British quarters it was stated that nothing was known about the Minister's recall, but that if the report were true it was a Persian | domestic affair, since Great Britain would have been informed if it affected the relations between the two countries. The first secretary 2lso will be moved from London. AMERICAN ASKS ARREST OF HUNGARIAN BEAUTY False Pretense in Obtaining $16,000 in Jewels and Cash for Mar- riage Charged. By the Assoclated Press. BUDAPEST, Hungary, January 7.— The romance of a retired Chicago man- ufacturer, Sydney Horner, and a Hun- garian beauty resulted today in the fil- ing of charges against the woman of obtaining money under false pretenses.

POLIE TO OPERATE SEVEN RABIO CARS Rockville, Silver Spring and Bethesda to Have Two and Takoma Park One. By a Staff Correspondent of The Star. | ROCKVILLE, Md, Januery 7.—Plans | of the Monigomery County police force for the formation of a radio patrol have been changed to include seven cars | equipped with short-wave receiving sety | instead of the four originally decided | upon, it was announced here today by County Commissioner John B. Diamond; commissioner in charge of the depart- ment. It was at first planned to place one radio cruiser in each of the four sta- tions, but the aress which the cars | operating out of Rockville, Silver Spring and Bethesda would have to cover is so large that it has been decided to assign two cruisers to those stations instead. Only one radio car will be placed at | the Takoma Park station, which has | only a comparatively small territory to | patrol Radio engineers who have been ex- perimenting for the past month to de- termine the most efficient type of set to install in the automobiles have finally settled upon the set to use, and the work of installing the receivers has finally been started. One car at Rock- ville is now ready for service. A cruiser was placed in operation at Rockville some time ago, but the set installed at that time was later removed when it was found that it was not en- tirely suited for the work. It is ex- pected that the entire patrol system will be in operation within the next two weeks. | ESTATE TO RED CROSS The American Red Cross in this city will receive half the residue of the es- tate of the late Horace E.
