The spelling contest of 25 words takes the place of roll call. If you hand in no paper it is assumed you are not there.

Although there was no immediate official word today on the PFrench decision to slash customs dutles, authoritative Goverhment sources said such action would be an im- portant stride toward relaxation of world trade restrictions in line with the tri-power monetary agreement. The Treasury was silent on the action, referring queries to the State Department, and, although there was no immediate response from the latter, well-informed sources said the reported duty reductions could be re- garded as the first major move toward the monetary agreement's goal of free international trade. With devaluation of the franc, they pointed out, Prench products were, in effect, made ‘cheaper” in world markets. This, it was said, would be of bene- fit to France in exporting her prod- ucts. To enable other nations to increase sales to France, and thus en- able them to buy more French prod- ucts, officials said, the French duties were reduced. Under the - monetary agreement, Great Britain, France and the United States concurred in the view that the success of their currency accord “is linked with the development of inter- national trade.” “Greatest importance” was attached in the.agreement “to action being taken without delay to relax progres- sively the present system of quotas and exchange controls with a view to their abolition.” The French duty reductions, offi- cials said, would have an effect on domestic prices in' France. .Coffee Regulations Planned.

The English, it seems, helped us to restore Williamsdurg, Va., or rather assisted John D. Rockefeller, fr., in restoring it for us. During the process of moving the Colonial Capital and the subsequent burning of the Governor's palace, practically all furnishings were de- stroyed or disappeared. The re- storers found that the early settlers of Bermuda, unbeset by wars, had preserved more furniture of that period than Virginia colonists, who, like them, had imported most of their household goods from Eng- land under the Coloniai Governors. Bermuda residents were kind about letting Williamsdburg have whatever was needed to achieve authenticity. * % % * CORRIDOR CAT.

BY LEO KIERAN, By Radio to The Star. ON BOARD THE DIRIGIBLE HIN- DENBURG, October 3.—The second day out from Times Square brings to an end the first leg of this re- porter’s dash around the world. The Hindenburg lands at Hamburg, Germany today. I will then rush to Brindisi, Italy, where I hope to econ- nect with one of the scheduled flights of Imperial Airways. Two days on this Zep have been more like a trip on a yacht than anything else, with close friendship among all the passengers and the crew. It is unlike a journey on an airplane or ocean liner in the lack of excessive excitement and rough seas. Free of Apprehension. Antonie Stressman, a veteran pas- senger on Zeppelins since 1932, holds that this method of travel is good for 10 years over that of airplane for ocean travel. Most noticeable among the pas- sengers is an entire lack of appre- hension and the implicit trust in the command despite the knowledge of storm warnings to surface vessels in the area. This trip has demonstrated the ability of Zeppelins to fly in a great circle regardless of the weather. At 3 p.m, ship time, 11 p.m. East- ern standard time), we passed direct- ly over the Norwegian steamer John Barke. The Hinderburg depressed her nose in salute and the ship dipped ; her colors in reply. | Sing Joyous Sengs. | The exact time of our landing at | Hamburg is uncertain, but all pre- | liminaries have been attended to. { Our last gathering in the smoke room | after dinner was a joyous one, with | all passengers joining in song to the | accompaniment of the salon’s piano.

Opposing Slabmen in Third Series Game CUMMINGS GIVEN BODING CASE Secretary Ickes Charges “Close Collaboration” on Two Projects. By the Associated Press. Accusing the bidders of “close col- laboration,” Secretary Ickez has re- ferred two instances of what he said were identical bidding on material to be purchased by the Bureau of Recla- Cum- mings for his consideration and pos- sible action One case involwed a group of man- ufacturers and jobbers bidding to supply steel tubing for the Grand Coulee Dam reclamation project in Washington State. The other con- cerned bids for copper cable and wire for a transmission line on the North Platte project in Nebraska. Ickes said yesterday the cases were somewhat different” than in some cases of apparent collusive bidding in the past.” “In each of these cases.” he said “while most of the bids were identi cal, at least one bidder submitted different and lower figures and con- tracts are being awarded.” The North Platte contract was awarded to the Nehring Electrical | Works of Dekalb. Ill, on a low bid of $16.487.69. Ickes said, however, that of the 14 bids received August 20, seven offered the goods at a delivered ! cost_price of $16.501.51 and two oth- ers had identical bids of $16,506.16. On the Grand Coulee contract the M. B. Austin Co. of Chicago was the successful bidder at $19.741.97. The Conduit & Cable Co. of Brooklyn both submitted bids of $17,580.80 f. o. b. Moundsville, W. Va., but Ickes ex- plained that the difference in guaran- teed weight of the goods had made the Austin company's bid the lowest. Ten bids were received for the steel tubing, Ickes said, and seven were identical with a delivered cost of $22,013.22. These unsuccessful iden- | tical bids and those on the North Platte project are the ones referred to the Attorney General.

Por the third time in the three | decades of its existence the club. mee:- ing tomorrow night. faced its initial program of the year without the guid- ing hand of its founder, Dr. Clifford W. Barnes, who is ill. During the vears in which he saw 2.250.000 persons attracted to the meet. ings by the appearance of many ou'- standing personalities of the Englishe speaking world, Dr. Barnes missed only two other openings—in 1918, when he headed a gofernment commission Lo Greece, and in 1932, when he was ill. An enthusiast for religion and educa- tion who called business leaders to aid | him in founding the club in 1907, the scholarly leader gave an informal Bible talk at each Sunday evening service for a quarter of a century. The meetings are definitely religious, de- signed for what Dr. Barnes called the Unchurched” of Chicago Bid To Sunday Club on Birthday “unchurched.” or persons without regular church affiliations, but excep- tional programs are permitted on some civic and national holidays.

His speech graphically expressed the disgust and resentment that he. as a life-long Democrat, feels at the spectacle of his party taken over by the nondescript experimentalists now in the saddle at Washington.
