DA R PAGES HERE | FROMEVERY STATE Group Serving 42nd Congress } Wearing White Gowns at Sessions. Young women representing every State in the Union serve as pages to the 42nd annual cqugress, National Society, Daughters of the American Rev- olution. The pages are perhaps younger at this year’s congress than any other congress for some_years, the committee having made a rule that no member of the society be appointed a page who was not under 30 years of age. Wearing spotless white gowns, the pages lend a striking contrast to the many colorful and Springlike costumes | worn by the delegates and alternates. Mrs. Russell William Magna, president general of the society. is undoubtedly the smallest woman to serve the society in this capacity, and her personal pages are among the tallest at the congress. Two of Mrs. Magna's pages, Miss Carol Grosvenor, daughter of Dr. Gilbert H. Grosvenor, of the National Geographic Society, and Mrs. Blanche B. Blalock, make their homes in Washington. Miss Elizabeth W. Judd, the president gen- eral’s other page. is from Mrs. Magna's home town, Holyoke, Mass. Mrs. Dorothy DeG. Jenkins is serv- ing her fourth term as chairman of the pages, and has assisting her Miss E. Ray Englar as vice airman The other pages are: For chaplain general, Mary Margaret Mardorf: re- cording secre general, Ruth Brooke: corresponding secretary gen- eral, Ruth Thornton:Magruder; organ- izing secretary general. Margaret F. Filbrick: treasurer general. Katharine Matthies;+ register general, Elizabeth Nall; historian general, Dorothy Ross; librarian general., Virginia Colgate; curator general, Alice Bell Jones. Platform pages.

Putting the body in the back seat of the car he started for town when he suddenly realized the seriousness of his position —he might not be able to convince the authorities that it was an accident! He was appalled; seized with panic, he decided to throw the body into a nearby quarry which was partially filled | vith water. This he did, but he said worry had driven him to confess. ‘The professor listened attentively—he knew Simmons’ account of the tragedy was highly improbable.

STAR, D.AR SETTOACT ON DEFENGE CUTS Delegates Expected to Open Fight for Strong Army and Navy. With today's deliflerations of the D. A. R. Congress restricted mainly to financial reports and necessary action looking toward recovery from the de- pression, the powerful machinery of the National Defense Committee was be- ing set in motion to exert its influ- ence for a strong Army and Navy. Resolutions reaffirming the national defense act and urging building up the Navy in the face of economy slashes by the Roosevelt administration are expected to be brought before the Con- Threatened loss of 4,000 Army of- ficers, a reduction of the enlisted | strg!gth and ellminatign of the C. M. T. C.and R. O. T. C. activities are like- ly to bring forth sharp protests from the D. A. R. Congress. Mrs. Becker Opens Discussions. Mrs. William A. Becker of Mont- clair, N. J., opened these discussions at a meeting this afternoon of the Na- tional Defense Committee, of which she is the chairman. The national defense issue overshad- lowed for the time being the vital in- | terest of the D. A. R. in the question of Soviet Russia, the body having adopted a strong non-recognition reso- lution yesterday. At the national defense meeting this afternoon the speakers will include Dr. Thomas H. Healy, assistant dean of the Georgetown University Foreign Service School; Dr. Leonid Strovhsky, profes- sor of history at the same school: Col. Ross Parker, Maj. Willlam H. Gil and; Mrs. E. P. Pendleton. | The delegates adjourned shortly be- fore noon today to take part in annual pilgrimages to Mount Vernon and Ar- lington, where they will pay tributes before the tombs of George Washington and the Unknown Soldier. Reception Tonight. This evening Mrs. Russell Willlam Magna, president general, and the na- tional officers will hold their formal reception to delegates and later in the evening will be hostesses to the 200 pages at a ball in the Willard Hotel. Beginning with the 1934 congress, a| registration fee of $1 was ordered paid by all national officers, State regents, chapter regents, delegates and alter- nates to the congress. This will help| defray the expenses of the congress Another resolution empowered the | president general and the Executive | Committee “to use their discretion in all matters relating to delinquent mem- bers and chapters.” Message From Roosevelt. A message from President Roosevelt. a plea by Secretary of Agriculture Henry A. Wallace that America culti- vate a “sense of social justice” and an ovation for Ruth Bryan Owen, duced as “Mme. Minister” because of | j her recent diplomatic appointment to Denmark and Icela were the high- lights of last night's session. Senator Tom Connally of Texas also spoke. Up to 6 oclock in the eve President had expected to attend the session but an important conference at the White House made it impossible,” he informed Mrs. Magna by letter. “Will you convey to all the delegates a greeting from me and express to them my deep appreciation of the loyal and patriotic service they are constantly rendering?” the letter said, “Particu- larly in a time like this the country needs the fine ideals, the loyalty to our national institutions and the willing- ness to serve which your organization alw manifests Mrs. Magna asked the audience to stand while the President’s message was being read and as she explained: I have asked you to stand at this par- ticular time that we may in unison ex- press our regret that the President can- not be with us tonight, but as we are all gathered together in the National Cap- ital as a patriotic bot I know that you stand with me in paying tribute to the President of the United States and in pledging our loyal support to him as he transacts the business of the Nation.

WoGDWARD intro- | 3 ! declared, accept his regrets gracefully and loyally, and it is in this spirit we pay tribute to_President Roosevelt.” Secretary of War George H. Dern and Mrs. Dern, the Ambassador of Italy and other prominent guests were in at- tendance at the first night session. Secretary Wallace, who spoke infor- mally, declared “prejudice, fear, igno- rance, hatred and greed are the great- est enemies of America today.” Unless a new spirit of tolerance is born, he said, machinery being set up to spread relief for agriculture will fail. He said: “We are hoping as we approach the agriculture problem that we can pro- vide machinery expressing the spirit o even-handed justice to all classes. It| will be a failure, unless in the hearts | not only of the farmers, but of pro- ducers, middlemen and consumers, there may be found a spirit whifh has not yet fully characterized the American peo- ple—a spirit of toleration, of willingness to see another's point of view and see it worked out in a definite, quantitative way.” Social Justice Stressed. Mr. Wallace said that unless the doc- trine’ of social justice was protected, “all our safeguards will go.” “I say that,” he added, “because of a knowledge of the psychology of the hot-heads of the Middlewest.” Secretary Wallace was followed by, Senator Connally, one of the leaders in the administration forces in the Senate. “‘The lesson of today,” said Senator Connally, “is that our liberties cannot be secured alone by the soldier, but must be upheld also by the citizen at the ballot box, also a protector and con- servator of these inherent richts” The Texas Senator was speaking mainly about George Washington and regretted that more emphasis has been placed on the military side of Washington's life than on his civil services which ex- tended over a longer period. Mrs. Owen Speaks. Mrs. Owen’s appearance on the stage —her first public appearance since be- | ing confirmed as Minister to Denmark | —was the occasion for an ovation ! equaled by that given in honor of the President. She spoke on “Patriotic Ed- ucation” and referred to the plan she inaugurated in her Florida district of | bringing a select group of boys and girls | to Washington each year while she was a member of Congress. “The idealism and energy of youth are valuable qualities in building the | life of the Nation,” Mrs. Owen said. | “The youth of today have a brand- | new point of view. They are fearless, | well informed and anxious to be of | service to their country. The modern child sees the world as & neighborhood through the magic of the radio and feels tQat he must share the respon- sibility Yor world good by doing his part in his community and State. We must | pass on to the young the heritage of ideals we have received from the found- ing fathers of the Republic.” Miss Sylvia Lent of Washington, violinist, and Benjamin De Loache, bar- itone of the Philadelphia Grand Opera Co., were the guest artists of the eve- ning. Gives Finance Report. Reporting cn the finances of the national _ society, Miss Katherine Arnold Nettleton, treasurer general, pointed to the way the organization has “weathered these troublesome times” and is “coming out with heads up and pushing ahead to greater achievements.” The membership shcws a big loss as ccmpared with last ar, however ettleton reported. now totaling of which 28.194 were still in arrears for dues.

Employes have been reduced be- cause the number of members did not warrant so large a force at headquar- ters, and later it was necessary to make cuts in the pay roll, she declared in her appeal for all members in arrears to pay their dues. Reporting on the museum, Miss Myra Hazard, curstor general and chairman of the Revolutionary Relics Committee, announced that efforts were being made to keep the museum educational in its character. Seventy-five gifts have been accepted during the year, she reported, from California, Disfrict of Columbia, Florida, Illinois, Massachusetts, Michi- gan, Minnesota, Missouri, Mississippi, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Ver- mont and Washington. Among these gifts was a large white wall case given by the District of Co- Jumbia in honor of the State regent, Mrs. Harry Colfax Grove, in which to show the interesting collection of baby embroideries, dresses, caps, shirts and infant accessories. A mahogany table case was given by Mrs. Jacob Marshall of New York in which to display her Chelsea. An iron rack for displaying the collection of small hair trunks is; being given by the chapters of the southwest district of Ohijo: Lagonda, Catherin Green, Urbana, Turtle Cyeek, Jonathan Day, Cincinnati, William Horney, Joseph Spencer, Taliaferro, Piqua, Miami, Washington Court House, George Clinton and Fort Greenville. Gifts of money also have been re- ceived from Florida. Illinois, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, | New York, Oklahoma., Rhode Island It is planned to give the label cards in the museum as much information as possible, ‘Miss Hazard reported. This requires much re- search, she pointed out. “I am sure it is evident we must not fill our cases with articles of no beauty or historic value just because they come down to us from the past,” she sald. “We must strive for rare and lovely things.” Lacks Revere Silver. As yet, the museum has no example of Paul Revere silver, she reported. The collection should, by all means, she urged, have at least one of these rare treasurers The report of the llbrarian general, Mrs, Frank M. Dick, showed that from a small beginning the library has grown to be a real power in the organization. An opportunity presents itself for the library to extend its work to all mem- bers, she said, through State and chapter libraries. To bring to light buried records, Mrs Dick said, is the work of the special indexing, inspired by the president general whern librarian general, and financed by contributions from the States. Approximately 178,000 cards have been filled since last Spring in furtherance of this work. This index- ing, Mrs. Dick pointed out. is one of | *he important services rendered in veri- | fying genealogical data by the most efficient means. A large number of gifts to the| library also have been received, in- of 380 | drawers from the Dorset Chapter, Cambridge, Md.
