" ROADS MUST MEET RF. . LOAN TEST ;.lones Tells New York Traf- ' fic Club Railroads Must Prove Case. I By the Associated Press. i NEW YORK, February 22—Jesse ' 1H. Jones, chairman of the Reconstruc- jtion Finance Corp., told the Traffic 1Club of New York at its 28th anniver- isary banquet last night that, “now iwe are through the emergency pe- :nod." R. F. C. loans to railroads will :be made only after a “thorough study rof all matters affecting the roads.” | “Those roads which must come to {the Government for financial assist- tance, now that we are through the ; emergency period, must be prepared ito prove their cases in point of man- agement, competitive conditions and i general policy * * *.” Jones said. { “We want to lend where a good \purpose will be served and the loans tcan be properly secured. i “I believe that I express a rather < general feeling in saying that railroad : management has not been as far- *sighted and as energetic as it might s have been in meeting the growing *highway competition by improving t their service, by instituting economies 11n operation through pooling, co-ordi- snation and consolidation, and by a 2 greater use of trucks, busses and high- i ways,” Jones said. ! Jones declared railroads must di- « vorce themselves from banker control. ! He advocated a code of fair com- { petition among various forms of com- + mercial transportation. + To do it effectively, Jones said, one : authority should control and super- > vise all interstate traffic, fixing rates ,and responsibility, and prescribing « regulations for service ard schedules. * Transportation by highway has be- ieome so important, he said, that 2 regulation of highway carriers, similar & to that of railway transportation, was " vital to the public interest.

Yesterday he held a young audience spellbound at the Hillton School, taught them a few lessons they won't forget, and won their undying friend- quick right hand he sketched out pic- tures which drove home ways and means of making Washington a safer town for children and grown-ups to live in; better than whole volumes could have done. This resourceful peace officer con- ducts a whole safety campaign of his own. He brings it to the youngsters in the school, for he’s high in his praise of the work of the boy patrols and believe that children can play a most important role in preventing ac- cidents and saviag lives. | First he wins them over by making them laugh. He gives them a few amusing sketches and tells them a story or two. Then he gets down to business. Dick Mansfleld is drumming up his own gang on Capitol Hill, a veritable army of boys and girls who call them- selves his ...ends, who want to be cartoonists, police patrol boys, so they can wear badges, and Red Cross nurses —all in the interest of public service. He is making them civic conscious. Combines Twe Arts, There is probably no other police officer in all the wide world who com- bines the two arts—swinging a baton and wielding chalk across blank paper —so well as Dick Mansfield. While he works away at the board the captain keeps up a rapid-fire con- versation. When Mansfield, prefacing a picture of China with a talk, asked, “Where does tea come from?” a hundred hands shot upward and a chorus bel- lowed, “From the store.” He drew a picture of a woman scrubbing a floor and turned it into Get This THRIFTY HABIT ~—Shop at Kidwell’s for your food needs and s 8 busy markets to SATURDAY SPECIALS!

In three strokes Mansfield drew a cartoon of a soldier going through a door—a soldier followed by a cat. It was highly imaginative—a line for the door, a line for a fixed bayonet and a | curly line for the cat’s tail. The chil- dren sensed the subject immediately and applauded. Just what a policeman has to do in order to safeguard the lives of | little people is the gist of Capt. Mans- | fleld’s talks. He tells the boys and |girls of the remarkable work being | done by that auxiliary branch of the police department, the School Boy Patrol. | Tilustrates Signals. “Any boy on the school patrol has as much authority as a regular police- | man,” Capt. Mansfield says. “The | boys of the school patrol may arrest any motorist who refuses to obey the signal ‘stop’' "—and here, Capt. Mansfield steps in front of the class | in the best approved manner and puts up his right hand as a stop signal. “When the school boy ‘patrol says | ‘stop’ the motorists stop,” Capt. Mans- | fleld tells them, “so that you and your | little brothers and sisters can cross the street in safety. When a school boy patrolman puts up his hand, like this, and orders a motorist to ‘stop that motorist had better obey the com- | mand.” | All the police officers in number nine are all friends of the boys and girls who go to school over there— for Capt. Mansfield lectures to his police officers as well as to the boys and girls. In this he has the co-operation of Miss M. G. Young, principal of Pea- body, Hilton and Carberry Schools, all on Capitol Hill. She tel's the pupils of her schools they must look upon the policemen as friends, and not enemies. On his rounds of the schools, where | he intéhds to impress upon the minds | of the children the real relationship between boys and girls and the officers of the law, Capt. Mansfield is accom- panied by Sergeant William Fred- erick McDuffie, also of No. 9. Capt. Mansfield will probably lecture until the Summer vacation period, visiting as many schools as, possible. He has a particular fondness in his heart for Capitol Hill schools. This is only natural as he is a product of the old Tyler School on Eleventh | street southeast. — Poles Mark Fire Hydrants.

COOLIDGE MET DEATH BEWILDERED BY LIFE, SAYS BIOGRAPHER had died and you were to become President?” Coolidge half smiled and said, “Well, I thought I could swing it.” SHREWD COOLIDGE REVEALED. Bruce Barton Bares Intimate Advice to Cabinet Members. NEW YORK, February 22 (#).— How the late Calvin Ccolidge said, “The President shouldn't do too much and he shouldn’t know too much,” is | related by Bruce Barton, author, in the second installment of “The Real Calvin Coolidge,” published today in Good Housekeeping. Barton said Coolidge told him, “I constantly said to my cabinet: ‘There are many things you gentlemen must not tell me “‘If you blunder, you can leave, or I can invite you to leave. But if you draw me into all your departmental decisions and something goes wrong, I must stay here. And by involving me you have lowered the faith of the people in their government.’” Ten other friend’s penned vignettes of Coolidge. Judge Henry P. Field, former mayor | of Northampton, Mass, wrote that Coolidge “didn’t utter a word when he applied for a place in my law office.” “Calvin Coolidge loved companions,” he wrote, “but he didn't know how to make himself companionable.” Henry Ford wrote, “I had always heard he was a taciturn man, but found him a man of most friendly conversation, free in the expression of his own opinions.” Wil Rogers said: “Mr. Coolidge had more subtle hu- mor than almost any public man I ever met. I bet he wasted more humor on folks than almost anybody.” TIERNEY I;ROMOTED Grain Futures Act Prosecutor Will Aid Cummings. Leo F. Tierney, special attorney prosecuting violations of the grain futures act, “will leave the Depart- | ment of Agriculture March 1 to be- come a special assistant to Attorney General Cummings. Tierney's promotion came shortly after he prosecuted Arthur W. Cutten of Chicagoron charges of violating the grain futures act. The Grain Futures Commission found Cutten guilty. Tierney is a native of South Da- kota and came to Washington from Dubuque, Iowa, specifically to handle the grain cases. DELANO WILL PUSH RECREATION PLAN Consolidation of Facilities Early Next Month Is to Be Sought. An effort will be made to consoli- date Washington's scattered recrea- tional facilities early next month by Frederic A. Delano, chairman of the National Capital Park and Planning Commission. This was learned today when it became known that Commissioner Allen will represent the District Gov- ernment at the forthcoming sessions. Henry I. Quinn, prominent Wash- ington attorney and member of the Board of Education, will represent the Community Center Department of the public schools. The National Park Service of the Interior .Depnrv.- ment is planning to have as its spokesman, C. Marshal Finnan, super- intendent of National Capital Parks. Agencies to Be Heard, Delano will listen to the views of each of the three agencies concerned and attempt to reach an understand- ing with them for a unified policy, if possible, under the present set up. If this can be done, no additional legislation will be needed at this time, in the opinion of observers. ‘The three agencies probably would chip in funds to hire a full-time, permanent director of recreation, who would co-ordinate the various recreational facilities into a smooth- running program. Report Is Awaited. Meanwhile, the forthcoming report of the District Commissioners’ ade visory council on recreation, com- posed of some 50 prominent citizens, is awaited with interest. The council has heard a thorough exposition of the history and development of rec- reation, in the hands of the Play- ground Department of the District, under the Federal park system here, and -through the Community Center Department, Officials of each of these agencies have furnished the council with maps, photographs, ad- dresses and even movies, showing how recreation is furnished here, Impetus to a consolidated recreation program was given by President Roosevelt in letters ‘to the District Commissioners, Secretary Ickes and the Board of Education.

Call it what you will—the mouth- ing ofirresponsible agitators or in- sidious propaganda by organized rev- olutionists—the persistent appeal to “workers in uniform” by Communist spokesmen has served to create a measure of unrest among enlisted men affected by pay cuts and re- strictions of sundry nature. There are malcontents in nearly | every organization, and their griev- ances, real or imaginary, are certain | to be magnified when conditions re- | quire that salaries be reduced, bonuses eliminated, clothing allowances cur- tailed or abolished. Malcontents Fertile Field. The malcontent element, Com- munists believe, offers a fertile fleld for nurturing seeds of disloyalty spread by agents of the Communist Internationale at Moscow. Some of these seeds may appear innocuous at the outset, but military and naval authorities who have seen similar seeds of discontent sprout into mutinous rebellions in armies and navies of some other countries do not think the threat should be ignored. The cultivation of dissatisfaction among sailors and marines is the purpose of the Shipmates’ Voice, issued every two monthe under com- munistic auspices.

By the Associated Press. MADISON, Wis., February 22.—A searching inquiry to determine it | radical-minded students and instruc- | tors populate the campuses of the | University of Wiscousin and the nine State teachers’ colleges was in prospect today. The Wisconsin State Senate author- |ized the investigation yesterday, but | left to its Committee on Committees | the detailed arrangements for the in- | quiry, which was designed, Senator E. F. Brunette of Green Bay said, to | clear the air of charges which “have never been proved or disproved.” A group of five Senators will be named by the Committee on Commit- | tees to conduct the invstigation. They | will question students and instructors to learn their personal beliefs and teachings. Some Radicals Admitted. That the university has some radi- cals, its liberal president, Dr. Glenn Frank, admitted, adding promptly that it also had some “whites” and “blues.” Senator Brunette. who first launched the move for the investigation in a Joint resolution, is expected, according to custom, to head the five examiners. | Brunette's first resolution was rejected | in the Assembly, but the Senator re- | turned with a Senate bill to conduct | the inquiry. Dr. Frank was friendly to the an- nouncement of the inquiry, saying he “certainly had no objection to the investigation of anything that inter- ests any member of the Senate,” Former Quip Recalled. His statement recalled the retort he made some years ago to & woman delegate of some club who asked “do |you know, Dr. Frank, there are | atheists at’ the university?” “Yes, of course,” he responded ami- ably. “We also have Presbyterians here.” The former editor of Century Mag- azine enlarged on his previous com- ment with: “The university is simply a cross section of American society. They (the investigators) will find the same things which they would find | if they investigated any church, Legis- | lature, Congress, the Republican | party, the Democratic party or any other aggregation of Americans.” | COLLEGE “PINKS” HIT. | GARY, Ind., February 22 () .— | Homer L.
