D—4 MADEIRA CAPITAL FULL OF NOVELTY Bullock Drawn Sledges, Mountain Ride and Ven- dors Lend Thrills. BY JOHN FRANCES STEELE. ‘When sailing toward the Mediter- ranean, Funchal, Madeira Islands, is! the first stop out of New York, with the coast of Morocco about 360 miles away. The climate and its spacious hostel- ries with broad verandas overlooking blue waters through blossoming oleanders and overhanging greenery, make it a popular Winter resort. With Southampton 1,300 miles northward, the Britisher has for many decades found the Funchal area a quiet retreat from the stress and storm of social and political warfare, Approaching the islands, the Terreiro da Lucta Mountain towers high on the skyline with filmy clouds, like a ruffled jabot adorning a shirt-front. The islands belong to Portugal, and Madeira is the largest, with an area of 270 square miles. The entire group has a population of over 210,000. Funchal, with a population of 50,000, is the center of government. Home of Columbus. Madeira should be of particular interest to Americans in as much as Christopher ~ Columbus lived here from 1476 to 1482. First he came as a visitor—in fact, he became a very frequent visitor—paying court to one Senorita Perestrello, a fair maid of Funchal, who later became his bride. She was brought up among maps and charts and was a woman of foresight and vision. Her father, Bartholomew Perestrello, was a mapmaker and georgrapher of no small importance, and, doubtless, was of considerable service to Columbus in his quest of the “new route to India.” | The _transportation proplem of Funchal was solved many years ago in a strange and interesting way by an Englishman with an invalid wife by the introduction of the bullock Carro. This is a kind of sledge which slides over the cobbled streets. While | not the smoothest ride in the world, it probably has advantages over the old-time carriage or cart. Automo- Liles have invaded the islands, but the bullocks are still used as a novelty to sight-seers. The bullock carro takes the visitor past row upon row of white houses and through narrow, | cobbled streets to the foot of the | mountain, The driver runs alongl urging the poor beasts into a swift | gallop until one feels every instant that he will be dashed against a wall or into an open ditch. A Barrage of Flowers. Vistas of beauty unfold as the train starts up the Terreiro da Lucta Mountain. There are white Spanish- looking houses, with colorful gardens. Flowers are everywhere. Children follow the slow-moving coaches and | pelt the travelers with flowers of every hue. The walls are a riot of color from the luxuriant bogumvilla, clematis and hundreds of varieties of indigenous tropical plants. Reaching the summit—in fact, every way you turn on the island— you have an uninvited escort of children asking for money. Still, they are clean and' good-natured and much like the youngsters in any American town. They speak good English and would grow quite chummy with a little encouragement. The descent from the mountain by basket sledge is a thrilling experience. Down the precipitous way the basket | flies. Half-way dowh the incline the mountaineers stop at a wine shop and drink to your health—at your expense. Wine and Embroidery. ‘The name, Madeira, which means “wood” in Portuguese, immediately suggests “wine” to the average man and “handmade embroidery” to ‘women. The very important industry of embroidery was installed by a generous English woman who was anxious to do something for the women of the island. The wines largely are exported to Switzerland, Germany and Sweden, as the native prefers his sugar rum. Shopkeepers speak good English, and possess a dignity not to be found in the street vendor. The bazaars have fine displays of wicker work made from the willows of the island. It is popular with Americans. When the steamer anchors early in the morning the traveler is awakened by gladsome noises of the boatmen who swarm the waters ready to display their wares of post cards, beads and exquisite pieces of hand- made embroidery. They are so per- sistent, that they stand in their boats displaying huge tablecloths of fine work long after the gangplank is removed. The passenger frequently will lower a small rope and pull up his purchase just before the ship sets in motion. So eager are the vendors to make a sale that many a fine piece can be bought for $75 which earlier in the day was held at double the price. TWO CHAPLAINS NAMED TO ACCOMPANY CRUISE Catholic and Protestant Services to Be Held on World Trip by Empress of Britain. | NEW YORK, January 5—Prot- estant and Roman Catholic Church services will be regular features of this year’s round-the-world cruise of the liner Empress of Britain. Two chaplains, one of each faith, have been appointed to accompany the cruise passengers. They are Rev. Father J. Charles Beaudin of Mon- treal, Canada, and Rev. Stanley Clap- ham of London, England. Masses will be celebrated in the ‘William and Mary Library of the Em- press at the altar with*which the liner was equipped. Protestant services will be held in the Mayfair lounge. o 500 PASSENGERS AWAIT QUEEN MARY’S SAILING Student Who Applied for Passage When Keel Was Laid Heads List of Applicants. By the Assoclated Press. LONDON, January 5.—Milton Kob- litz, a student at Johns Hopkins Uni- versity in Baltimore, makes his travel plans far in advance. His name heads the list of applicants for passage on the Queen Mary, England’s new ocean leviathan, when she makes her maiden trip in the Spring of 1936. Koblitz's application was received in July, 1931, when only the first keel plates of the liner had been laid on the Clydebank. Since that time nearly 500 additional applications, many from distinguished ns, have been Teceived, | plan, THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, JANUARY 6, 1935—PART TWO.

"Leach Commends Citizen Soldiers for Devotion to Duty During Economic OMMENDATION for the Na- tional Guard of the United States not only for its high state of efficiency but for its loyalty and devotion to duty exhibited when its members continued to-drill without pay for part time when the Federal funds were cut is contained in the annual report of Maj. Gen. George E. Leach, chief of the National Guard Bureau of the War Department. “The National Guard,” said Gen. Leach, “has shown that it is possible to produce on the basis of an evening drill a week and a fortnight's field training, at relatively small cost, a military organization capable of ren- dering useful service to the States and to the Nation. As a State force the National Guard has come to be| recognized as a real asset in time of disaster or public distress, while as the National Guard of the United States it is capable of serving, with moderate additional training, as a combat force in time of war. The value of the National Guard has come to be so widely appreciated and service in its ranks has become sO popular that, were the authority and funds granted, its strength, on th same high plane of personnel, could be doubled immediately. “Administration, on a high general level, has come to be routine and Bl-‘ most automatic. The outstanding re- | cent developments have been an in- creasingly high quality of personnel and continued improvement in train- ing; so much so that the temporary | reductions in appropriations and other | handicaps imposed as a result of re-| cent economic disturbances have not appreciably lowered standards of effi- | | | Then, taking up the matter of th loyalty of the Guard when the drill | funds were cut, Gen. Leach continued: “National policy required that the number of authorized drills on a pay | basis be cut 25 per cent. So great| | was the loyalty of the citizen-soldiers | and so genuine their interest in their | | work that the troops donated their | |time to make possible the normal | number of drills. Reductions in pay inflicted hardships in many cases, | | complicated the work, and increased | | the hazards of paymasters. In many | cases Regular Army instructors were withdrawn for duty with the Civilian | Conservation Corps, or could not be | given funds for visits of instruction. | | Except in the case of correspondence | courses, which suffered. the troops | | carried on their own instruction. The | reduction in the ammunition allow- ances was met by the introduction of | | the artillery trainer and a wider use of sub calibre weapons and other eco- nomical training devices or methods. | | Changing artillery from horse-drawn | to truck-drawn units effected savings {in training time as well as in money | The National Guard, unexpectedly | forced to operate under conditions of | uncertainty and to adapt itself quickly | to changing conditions, met the test | successfully, found in it a wholesome | Guard Head Distress. units in the division as to the number of motor vehicles available for trans- portation purposes, as it is proposed to make the entire movement of troops in the three States, Maryland, Vir- ginia and part of Pennsylvania, and the District of Columbia by motor caravan. It was announced at Guard Head- quarters that the Pennsylvania Rail- road had donated scores of used track ties to the local militia for use on the rifie range at Camp Simms in the construction of revetments. The annual examinations for en-| listed men seeking promotion from | the ranks to commissions in the vari- us units will begin at the Armory Tuesday night. The successful candidates will be placed on an eligible list and as va- cancies occur during the year in the various units, the men will be picked from this list in the order of their relative standing as a result of the examinations. Inspections of property held by the arious units of the local militia were started this week by a board com- posed of the Regular Army instruc- tors assigned here. They are Maj. L. | McD. Silvester, Capt. Lee D. Hooper and Capt. C. R. Roberts. These offi- cers are conducting the inspection at the request of Col. John W. Oehmann, acting commander of the local militia. The inspections now being made are aside from the annual property in- spections to be made by the Federal officers later in the year. In this| preliminary inspection the officers will determine whether the unit has on hand all of the property issued to t y the property officer as well as its condition. It also will be a check on | the accounting system of each unit. The annual physical rxammalions‘ of all commissioned personnel have ! been completed and reports submitted to the War Department, and those will be followed on January 10 by ef- ficiency reports. !
