Washington, D. 0., April 18?Moat
of the appropriation bills having been
passed by the House and now being
before the Senate, nothing of ^great
importance came up in Congress this
week. Routine matters were disposed
of in the House and a greater part of
the time was spent in committee hearings.
The outlook in Buro-po for the allies
seems to got darker and darker. Army
and Navy Officials testifying in
secret before House Committees emphasize
that anything may happen.
We continue to feverishly build our
defense forces and, at the same time,
sending as many #ar supplies as we
can to England and the other dentocraciea.
Congross hopes that we
won't get into waf hut .le-dally providing
funds for our defense forces in order
that this great country may be
ready for anything. The outlook ie
not bright.
The Daughters of tho American Revo
lution have been having one of the
finest and best attended meeting in
its history here in Washington, meeting
daily during the past week in
Constitution Hall.
It Interesting to note that during
the last year the D. A. R. has spenl
over $150,000 in aiding aliens seeking
citizenship, In adopting refugee children
and in improving the Btatus ol
the American Negro.
Chapters all over the country have
given much attention in the past year
to study of textbook materials tised in
public schools, to stimulating opposition
to Federal aid to education and
to having names of persons advocating
the overthrow of the United
states form of government barred
from election ballots, according t?
the report of Mrs. Emery, Chairman
Of the committee on National Defense
Through Patriotic Education.
On Saturday, October 11, 1890, a
new patriotic organization of the
women descendants of those who took
part In the American Revolution wjtf
formed at the Strathmore Arms. Mrs.
Benjamin Harrison was to he presides
general ol the moclety. The
original service to which they devoted
themselves was the completing of the
monument to the mother of George
Washington. -Subsequently tbo objects
of the order were expanded to
perpetuate the memory of the spirit of ,
the men and women who achieved
American independence; to promote
inuiltutioiiH for the Koneral diffusion
of knowledge; to cherish, maintain
and extend the institutions of American
freedom; to foster truo patriotism
and love of country, and to aid in
securing for mankind all the blessings
of liberty.
These are worthy purposes to which
every loyal citizen of the United
States wholeheartedly may subscribe.
4t follows that there will bo widespread
interest in the liftlelh Continental
Congress of the Daughters of
the American Revolution recently In
session In Washington. The strife
abroad and many problems at home
prompt- gratitude for the existence of
euch an association of loyal women.
More than one hundred and fortythree
thousand members, Jt was announced,
currently are enrolled lti
twenty-five hundred and fifty chapters
^scattered In every State of the Union
| hnd throughout all other portions of
the world. The <jause to which the
> organization is pledged Is |(hat of Intelligent
appreciation of freedom and
sympathetic comprehension of the
t traditions of courage without which
k freedom cannot survive.
in 1941 It Is well that the P. A. R.
with half a century of experience, is
| available to help in the great work
which must be done for civilisation In
this troubled earth,
i 8chool Children's Questions
Question; What arrangements are
r made for a meeting of a standing
' commltte of the Honse?
| Answer: Each committee has a
[ large committee room, Its size and
f accommodations depending upon the
importance of ihw committee. Each
of the major committees of the House
' hqa^a large meeting room that is equal
to thevslze of the average United
1 States district courtroom. The members
of the committee have individual
1 seats In a semloircle behind individoal
desks. A witness appearing before
1 this committee in support of or in
opposition to a bill Is usually given
' time to make his own statement and
l! then the committee members are
l( privileged te cross-examine him. Tba
usual time <ef meeting is 10 o'clock in
k the mornnig and sometimes in the
1 afternoon and night when the House
: Is not in session. The power and in1
fluence of a Member depends partly
upon his committee assignment. The
' seniority rule generally obtains, that
la, Mam&ecs at laag service werk up,
L to chairmanship and ranking posi1
Hons, while .the new Member must
1 start at the -foot of a committee.
Question: Why are Congressional
standing committees necessary?
Answer: Congress has so many
Members it Is necessary for each
House to organise committees to
study and act upon bills before they
are considered on the floor of the
House or Senate.? Each committee
has a chairman as presiding officer
and a clerk to keep the records. Committees
have often been called small
models of the House and Senate. Committees
hear witnesses for and
against bills, which neither tho House'
nor the Senate can do.^ |

DEATH RIDE8 THE HIGHWAY'S
Death at the hands of a "hitchhiker"
was the end of a Pejmsylvanlan
tourist motoring through Virginia
recently. If enough kind-hearted
motorists let that'tragedy sink, into
their memory, that In itself may cure
the hitch-hiking practice froth in the
Interest of human safety and improved
traffic conditions.
With better weather the hitch-hiking
practice is having its usual
seasonal expansion. Conditions In
this city perhaps are not unlike those
of other cities, hut that only means
that many cities are having their
traffic slowed down by tl^ese "thumbers"
many of whom are clearly
violating the law and on that account
should be taken into custody.
Public opinion, after weighing the
hitch-hike practice has expressed itself
in a law against it. The law is not
adequately enforced. It may not be
comprehensive enough for whether a
hitch-hiker operates from a curb or
the traveled portion of the highway,
the effect of a car's stopping in a
heavy flow of traffic is the same.
Motorists themselves are not contributing
helpfully to traffic problems
when they participate in the
hitch-hiking practice. Furthermore
they are talcing chances on- their own
lives and property, as abundant evidence
proves.

A TRIP TO FLORIDA IN 12 PARTS
(Pert Seven)
?Don't let 'm fool you, l>in?h! They
have cold weather lu Florida, too. As
virtual, a cold spell overtook ua and
hit ua about tho middle of the State.
The newspaper saUl the temperature
was 51 last Wednesday morning, tho
thermometer begged to differ with It :
it said It was 39. and my thin clothes
aald it waa aero. We hustled out to
Miami, .seeking comfort. They wore
shivering when wo left there last
night. This Is being written In Key
West, and there's some shivering go
tog on here, almost In the tropics.
This cold wind certainly does udd
Icicles to one's whisker... when It
blows thru 'em.
?On the whole Florida has pretty
good wads, but tho first few miles
out of Seining going south Is a highway
built on tho chuta-fhw.hute principle.
It follows tho surfaco of the
land up and down. You can ride it
safely though If you'll remove your
false teeth (If any) and your specs (if
any) and tighten up your bolt t>f ??>')
so's you wont loso your ovorythlng.
The trip can bo made without incident
if you are caroful about not running
Into cows and buzzards. Nearly every
buszard scorns to Want to wipe your
windshield for you.. .espocially In the1
Everglades.
?There's enough idle land In Florida
to grow all of the fruit (citrus) and
all of tho vegetables that tho entire
U* S. normally requires. Not over 10
per cent of tho tillable acreage appears
to be In cultivation. Tho Everglades,
if planted entirely to sugarcane,
would produce all of the sugar
that we can consume and then a
large stock could be exported. T^iey
have a few patches of tho Everglades
growing sugar cane, and it looks like
the beginning of a "big industry if the
tariff will protect them against cheap
"furrin" labor. In other words, spot
'em about 2c per lb.
?Lots of folks think...they haven't
bwm to Florida unless they hare stop-1
ped ofT in Miami and Miami Beach and
St. Pete. Well, there's something in
what they think: these cities are full
of amazing eights, yet?there are
other fine places In tho state. Miami
newspapers have horso-raclng and
dog-racing results plastered all over
Cfcwft s. The -war news is
really hard to find. Hitler wouldn't
like (Miami,. Beach: imost of the folks
over there appear to be the type that
he likes to rob and kill. It doesn't
matter who made it a great city and
play-ground, they did a wonderful Job
0f jt?be they Jews ' or Gentiles or
Floridlans.
A TRIP TO FLORIDA IN 12 PARTS
(Part Eight)
?When we left home 10 days ago
we intended to do all of our recuper^
ating in South Central Florida. But
after wo found it possible to get a
check cashed we decided to go to a
warmer climate. We are spending
today and tomorrow .ih Key West.
.1','J'-'-J-?. 1 ?.U -- ? , .hfc .,?T5g
We drove from MUmi this morning,
172 miles, over a roud composed mostly
of bridges and causeways. The
drive from Miami to Key West, is in
itself worth a trip to Florida. The
"remains" of Flager'a Great Over-theSea
railroad can bo soon along the
way. Somobody sunk 50 million dollars.
but they say only the common
stockholders suffered any. Ouch! U.

Its road-bed. [. \

- Key West mOa'Kip Van Winkle
city. It lias bcW.pUumbering for over
20 years. The N^vk Deal punched the
withering st^lemeWTlin the ribs 2 or
3 years ago, aim now tho old place is
getting up and nibbing Its eyes. Many
Improvements have been made, buildings
have been re-modeled, painted
and othorwlso improved. The Navy
has a large number of marines here
and tho government colony Is growing
daily. Vory little civic pride has been
injected Into Key West, but that will
come later. A gang of 100 men could
bo employed for u year or so in tearing
down .old, antiquated, useless
buildings: they are eye-sores and an
injury to tho prospects of tho pwakening
Island. All tho new buildings are
modern and attractive.
?Folks don't scorn to bo on their
toes us to whether or not you eat,
drink or sleep with them. The business
folks need about 50 percent more
competition squirted into thorn. Most
of tho places wo have culled on don't
appear to bo interested in anything
much, I paw a Negro at a filling station
this morning. I said?"Sambo,
alnt you from South Carolina?" He
replied?No sir, I is from Ohio." I
told him I was so sorry about that: I
always gavo any colored man I found
from S. C. In Florida a 5-dollar bill"
He said?"I wish I had of known that
sooner: ~ I shore would of been from
Columbia. I stopped there one night?"
I went ahead and gave him 5 cents
anyhow. J
?We'll leave tomorrow for Cuba,
Guess we'll try to get that country*
straightened out. We alnt in ho fix
for them to have another revolution
over there. We are hoping that we
will And the weather warm enough
ta Havana to permit us to pUll off one
pair of our red flannels, at least.
Everybody has told us all the way
down that thjs ie the first cold snap
that Florida has had in over 35 years,
especially the hotel and filling station
folks. It has been nice and sunny
and balmy until last week, tho day
we arrived. Now that's what they
say?but I have frozen almost to
death a dozen times in the "Sunshine
State."
