ROUTINE DREDGING PROVIDES. AIRPORT Reclamation Project May Break Deadlock Over Gravelly Point Site. ‘The 10-year deadlock over a site for & civil alr termina] for Washington may be broken by routine channel dredging operations in the Potomac River, in the opinion of officials of the National Aeronautic Association. As a result of the dredging, dry land /1s appearing on the Gravelly Point | site, long advocated by the association and other local aviation organizations &s a site for a model local air terminal. “Most taxpayers are unaware,” the association stated in an article in the January issue of its house organ, !the National Aeronautic Magazine, “that within a month’s time about 75 ! acres of land will be showing off what 1s known as Gravelly Point.

A decade has passed without action.” It also was pointed out by the as- sociation that when the Mount Ver- ;mon Boulevard was constructed by the Bureau of Public Roads, Agriculture Department, provisions were made for road connections to an airport at Gravelly Point. There is a roadway overpass with no road. “It is also known,” the association explained, “that Thomas MacDonald, chief of the Bureau of Public Roads, has in his offices complete plans for the airport, although his bureau has no intention of constructing the air- port itself; his bureau merely made provisions for one when it construct- ed the highway. Present Airport Improved. “Meanwhile Washington Airport, the commercial airport now in use by | the airlines, has improved its fleld | substantially and has paved several | runways. It is less than a mile north | of the Gravelly Point site.” It was pointed out that the present airport commission, headed by Sen- ator King of Utah, now is studying the local airport problem but is not yet ready to report. “The Aero Club of Washington, headed by Chet Warrington, has pointed out that 4,500-foot runways could be constructed at Gravelly Point with adjacent seaplane facilities, giv- | ing the airport an international fla- | vor,” the association said. “While the congressional commission is making further study, the Gravelly Point site | is beginning to appear above water | and within a few months will be a | reality. Some observers believe only Machiavelll could have staged a | &cene by which a Department of Agri- | culture agency and the War Depart- | ment were building an airport site under the name of ‘reclamation’ with- out anybody knowing about it.” 4 ORDERED TO ANSWER SENATE PROBE CHARGES Failure to Appear in Alleged Labor Espoinage Case Is Count Specified.

NEW YORK, January 9.—Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt took time off on her 78th birthday anniversary to- day to warn women they could never attain equal rights with men by amending the United States Consti- tution. The woman suffrage pioneer op- posed the proposed equal rights amendment because she said it would “mean the destruction on that mass of protective legislation passed by 48 States during the last half century.” Despite the movement she feared would wipe out her life work, the suffragist was “neither disappointed nor encouraged about the participation of women in public affairs.” “They are behaving,” she declared, “just as I thought they would.” Mrs. Catt refused to celebrate her birthday anniversary because it “isn’t & particularly interesting age.” She scorned ambitions to live to be 100, ng “I don’t want to lose my in life, as one is likely to do when be gets very old.” honor last night.

They told how she had fought year after year to convince school officials, teachers, pupils and parents of the need for the training of schoolgirls in the fundamentals of home life. They recalled how she had visited one-room schools in Maryland, carrying her lit- tle box with its stove and utensils, setting up a cooking class in one end of the room, while the teacher carried on regular ciasses for the boys in the other half of the room.

Miss Molly Davis, one of the first three young teachers who received do- mestic science training from Miss Ja- cobs, recalled that in the beginning of her long career Miss Jacobs, not much older than her students, pos- sessed an enviable wealth of brown hair, the pink cheeks she never has lost, and an insatiable desire to pre- sent her idea that the foundation of the tfaining of future housewives should be laid during school days. “Miss Jacobs was pioneering in a new fleld.” Miss Davis said. “She is course .in the District schools. She has made over the diet people eat; I know it made a difference even in the early days of her work in this city. The effects spread from school chil- dren to their parents, and then to the storekeepers. District people learned to live better because of her.” Recalls First Course. Miss Margaret Merillatt, ancther of the first three students of Miss Ja- cobs, recalled that at first the course was “just plain cooking, not science or not economics—those came later.” She said that one of the strongest im- pressions of her early days under Miss prise dinner last night at Wesley Hall, | ‘They paid | the one who made the domestic science | THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTO Pioneer Educator Honored Jacobs Is Feted at Surprise- Dinner. - L i Miss Emma Suter Jacobs, at the testimonial dinner in her —Star Staff Photo. @ | Jacobs was that she always was work- | iIng—when she was not teaching, she was fighting for the future of her | course or was studying. | Miss Jacobs, who was born in the | District January 21, 1868, a descend- ant of three early Colonial families of Maryland and Virginia, graduated rom Washington High School and he Normal School and George Wash- ington University Teachers’ College.

By the Associated Press. The hoary old questions of State rights confronted the Government yesterday in a new guise—the objec- tions of State-supported colleges to paying the Federal sports admission tax. Indications were-that the Supreme Court might be the final arbiter. Already four schools have informed the Internal Revenue Bureau they will not pay the 10 per cent tax. Three cases have reached court. Other institutions are waiting devel- opments before taking a stand. Government attorneys said they expect the Supreme Court will be requested to review one of the pend- ing cases. ‘W. and M. Latest Objector. ‘The College of William and Mary in Virginia was the latest to object. Yesterday it formally denied the Government's right either to compel & State institution to collect taxes or to levy and collect taxes from a State institution. Refusing to pay future taxes, the college also will seek a refund of levies paid in the last four years. In Atlanta Tuesday Federal Judge E. Marvin Underwood enjoined the Government from collecting foot ball game taxes from the University of Georgia and Georgia Tech. He said: “Athletic programs and contests for which admission is charged, under the decision of the Court of Appeals in this case, are an essential govern- mental function of the State of Georgia.” The Government argued foot ball was & business and that men were hired specifically to play foot bell. Case Reaches Two Courts. Federal efforts to collect taxes from the University of Iowa already have reached two courts and a suit has been instituted to collect from the University of Minnesota. g The colleges involved now are all State-operated. Private institutions could not use their arguments and likely would not be affected by dect- sions favoring them. Informed sources estimated Uncle Sam might lose $1,000,000 annually in revenue if the fnal decision goes against him.

NEW ORLEANS, January 9.—Im- migration officers today mmldereg't.ha plight of Miss Rosheen Blynn, 29, a passenger aboard the Japanese liner Buenos Aires Maru, who was detained after the vessel reached New Orleans from Houston, Tex. Miss Blynn, formerly of Minneap- olis, was described as a “woman with- out a country” pending & decision. Authorities said she was a British subject, although she had spent her life since infancy in the United States. When the Buenos Aires Maru touched Houston earlier in the week immigration men refused to permit her to disembark, maintaining that she had no way of showing she would not become a public charge. Miss Blynn appealed to the United State Department of Labor. She sailed from New York in May, 1936, and went to Buénos Aires. Her funds were exhausted there, it was declared, and her passage was fur- nished by the Ezras Nochin Society. Officers said a permit which she carries merely gvies her permission to seek re-entry to this country. The young woman declined to dis- cuss the case. She remained aboard the vessel. tonight.

Acting Secretary Moore indirectly served the warning on Europe in a statement to the press.

Moore asserted in response to in- quiries: “I do not believe that & war involv- ing the leading European nstions is about to occur. “I decline to believe that any such adventure in suicide is imminent. “On the contrary, I am convinced that the leaders of those nations, knowing what a perhaps fatal blow another world war would be to the fabric of European civilization, will find some common sense method of adjusting all controversies. “Of course, all the world would be glad to see the civil strife in Spain wholly localized.” PARK DEVELOPMENT IS LECTURE TOPIC B.

FILMS Bureau of Mines Claims Largest Circulating Library in the World. By the Associated Press. The United States Bureau of Mines says it has the largest circulating library of movie films in the world. Oddest thing about the $1,000,000 collection is that it cost the Govern- ment nothing to produce them. A coal company, for example, paid for the elaborate portrayal of coal pro- duction which is enlivened by shots of terrific dust and gas explosions set off in the bureau’s experimental mine at Bruceton, Pa.,, to demonstrate the extreme explosibility of coal dust. An- other scene shows how miners use a canary to test the presence of carbon monoxide in a mine. The latest two-reeler, of a Virginia park, produced by the bureau for the National Parks Service, was paid for by an oil company—on the theory it would promote travel to parks and consequent consumption of gasoline. In like manner the whole 62 of the bureau’s films (whose 3,800 coples are | booked solid for months ahead) were | inanced by one industry or another. M. F. Leopold, who promotes, pro- duces and edits the films, says his expeditions have covered all the con- tinents. Pilming “Glimpses of Texas" took him to the heart of the Chisos Mountains on the Mexican border. The bureau’s films, available free to any public organization, had 76,000 | showings last year to audiences total- |ing nearly 7,000,000. Most of the films are devoted to production and industrial uses of minerals, from slver | to sulphur.

J, January 5.—A system of Federal loans to qualified | tenants so they can become farm | owners was proposed today by Gov. Hoffman as a solution to the “vital problem” of farm tenancy. | Declining to attend forthcoming Government hearings in the South and ‘West because of pressing State prob- lems, the Governor wrote Secretary of Agriculture Wallace “It is a primary duty of society and the State to pro- mote home ownership in rural as well as In urban communities.” “The present state of affairs is not | satisfactory,” the Governor said. “The |fnrm tenants do not own the land, and consequently they are far more mobile than individual farm owners. | In other words, they are, as a rule, ! not attached for a considerable period of time to the community in which they live. As a result, they do not participate fully in the life of a given community, and quite often, | instead of being an asset, they are a | liability. The school, the church and other rural institutions are not definite | parts of tenants’ lives because they do ot consider them as their own.” Farm tenancy showed a definite upturn in New Jersey from 1931 to the present time because of the eco- | nomic depression, the Governor obe | served. . | e | SPANISH INVENTOR DIES | Prof. Leonardo de Torres Quevedo Succumbs in Madrid. | MADRID, January 9 (#).—The death of Prof. Leonardo de Torres Quevedo, 83, noted Spanish engineer and inventor of the cable railway at Nisgara Falls, was disclosed tonight.
