B—16 %% BOARD IS BACKED ON COMMONSH Washington Highlands Citi- zens Favor Teaching Facts in Schools. The stand of the Board of Edu-| cation and Corporation Counsel E. Barrett Prettyman in favoring teach-| ing the facts of communism in the | District schools was upheld in a| motion passed by the Washington | Highlands Citizens’ Association at a meeting last night. The sentiment of the association was that upholding the Constitution, which provides “freedom of speech, | freedom of the press and free as-| sembly,” was essential to the pupil | and that teaching communism was | a constitutional right. Furthermore, it was contended, the board has suc- cessfully administered its duties for many years and criticism in this matter was unjust. Playground Action Deferred. . Questicn of the proposed site for | a playground in the section was re- | ferred to the Playground Committee pending action to be taken by the Congress Heights Citizens’ Associa- | tion at a meeting next week. The| controversy concerns a tract of land now belonging to St. Elizabeth’s Hos- pital and ground owned by the Gov- ernment and under the supervision | of the National Capital Parks. The latter piece of land is known as Fort Carroll and is considered more ideally located than the hospital site. Dr. George C. Ruhland’s health program was wholeheartedly indorsed | by the association. Officers Elected. The annual election of officers took place, with W. Earl Nair being re- elected for his third term as presi- | dent. Other officers included H. A.| Jaeger, first vice president; W. B. Lovejoy, second vice president; Miss | Lottie Roberts, secretary, and Mrs. | H. B. Butler, treasurer. W. W.| Barnes and Miss Vera Barnes were | named delegates to the Federation of Citizens' Associations. The meeting was held in the home of Roy Clarke, 3906 First street soutneast. | —_— | GOODWILL WORKSHOP IN LARGER QUARTERS | | Expanded Program Starts With Move to 926 Fifth—May Use Takes Oath MORRIS BECOMES ASSISTANT ATTORNEY GENERAL, JAMES W.

The six men, missing since they took off from Dawson last Saturday fcr - \ SPEAKING I of slar road house, 35 miles from the city. Pilot Bob Randsil, who flashed word he had found Herman's party and plane on an island in the Yukon River yesterday, and Pilots Vic Ross, Wil- liam Lavery and Herman Lerdahl were ready to fly from Dawson to Cassiar to determine whether the men would be returned by air. If not, the group will have to make the trip by dog team. Ross and Lavery had food supplies and small parachutes to drop to the road house should thew find they could not return the group immediately. It was doubtful supplies would be neede:, as the road house usually is well stocked. Herman's plane was reported un- damaged on the island. Flyers at Daw- | son said they thought a safe runway | probably would be built first. Herman's passengers were George Townsend, Dawson; Oscar Adany, Sul- phur Creek and Vancouver, British | Dade and Fairbanks, were reported safe at Cas- | Columbia; Walter James, Whitehorse. | Oounty.

For embarrassing moments there is one where the late Dr. Nansen, to make conversation at dinner, inno- cently asked his neighbor if he col- lected stamps. It seemed that that very morning the guest questioned, a cabinet officer, had been accused of having stolen a colossal number of stamps! Earthquake, Tornado, Fire, Rain and Kid- naping Insurance M.
