WNU Service, 1616 Eye Street, N. W.,
Washington, D. C.
(This is the fourth of a series
Ascribing how American in
genuity is helping to solve one
of America’s biggest problems—
the GJ. housing shortage.)
WASHINGTON.—Thirty-five hun
dred new homes started in one year
is a pretty good record for any fair
sized community—especially when
the year is 1946, and the city,
Memphis, Term., had never started
more than 2,400 units a year before.
Some two thousand of last year’s
“starts’’ were completed in 1946.
Now in the spring of 1947 while
some communities still talk about
and wish for housing, Memphis is
going right ahead finishing up the
rest of the 1946 starts and under
taking more.
The answer to this old southern
city’s success In housing lies partly
in the coopera
tive attitude of
city officials who
are very con
scious of the vet-
e r a n s housing
problem, and
partly to individ
ual builders who
have been will
ing to make
price sacrifices,
work long hours
and do whatever
was necessary to
overcome short
ages of mate
rials.
Take Wallace E. Johnson for ex
ample—a builder who started in
December, 1939, to construct one
house and who now has to his credit
several thousand.
He is devoting all his energy and
ingenuity to housing veterans these
days. It takes energy and ingenuity
too, but this man who, during the
war, was completing a house for a
war worker every two and a half
hours has what it takes.
For example, last September
when lumber couldn’t be bought for
love or money, Johnson bought land
with standing merchantable timber
and a sawmill camp near Potts
Camp, Miss., close to Memphis.
This purchase made possible a
triple play which has paid off in
savings of time and money. Johnson
With some friends I sat looking
through a window on Lafayette
Square just as the leaves reached
the point where they screened An
drew Jackson, sitting on a horse
which somebody described as hav
ing two feet firmly planted (like a
radical) in the air. Soon the foliage
will come down like a hood, cover
ing the skeleton branches which
now are still showing through the
green.
Trees were on our minds for we
had just walked down Connecticut
avenue, which for several blocks is
being deforested so that a tunnel
can be drilled underneath Dupont
Circle. Washington is famous for its
trees but of late years the automo
bile har caused the destruction of
many of the finest. Widening of
streets sometimes necessitates re
moval of trees. Frequently ancient
oaks, elms or ginkgos are cut down
and replaced with saplings.
Underpasses to take care of the
traffic have burrowed under two of
our circles already and now “my”
circle Dupont (I live only three
blocks from it), is to experience a
similar operation. It will never be
the same. Of course, Dupont Circle
is not quite the same as it was when
I first saw it three decades ago
when it was the center of the social
and diplomatic section.
I was bemoaning this “official
vandalism” which robs these spots
of their charm, as we looked out
over the five varieties of elms in
the park before us. One of our
group, a naturalist, identified the
elms as American, English, Scotch,
Dutch and Smoothleaf, not to men
tion the horsechestnuts, maples,
beech, dogwood, a beautiful deodar,
an ash, which he reminded us was
the mystic tree of Yggdrasil, its
crown in the heavens and its roots
in the nether world.
cuts his own timber, hauls it to hfe
own sawmill for sawing, drying and
cutting, then hauls it direct to his
own building sites in size and
amount wanted. So much waste is
eliminated that the leftover lumber
from a whole house can be hauled
away in one wheelbarrow.
When brick couldn’t be had in the
Memphis area, Johnson still man
aged. He got brick on a swap basis
—obtaining critical materials and
labor for a brick-making concern
which used the items thus supplied
to make brick for Johnson projects.
If he conidn’t find the mate
rials he needed around Mem
phis, he went where he could
buy them. He has sent em
ployees by air all the way to the
west coast to pick up windows
and doors, even paying retail
prices for them when he had to.
But Johnson couldn’t do as well
as he does nor keep his costs to vet
erans so low without cooperation of
the community. In Memphis the
city repays builders of approved
subdivisions for their expense in in
stalling utilities. The Memphis light,
gas and water division, which is
publicly owned, has gone so far as
to permit utility connections even
when no meters were available.
Thus, quite a number of houses
were finished and families were
housed, without having to wait for
the hard-to-get meters.
As a result of this cooperation
Johnson last fall had completed 55
two-bedroom houses which went to
Memphis vets for $5,250. Other
prices are comparably low, $6,000
to $7,000, and even in the lowest
brackets Johnson tries for good de
sign. He switches roof lines or the
set of a house on a lot, and utilizes
other means to avoid the sameness
generally characteristic of rows of
houses in developments. Inciden
tally he recently was awarded a
prize by National Home Builders
association for “Meritorious House
Design in 1947.”
The tenants appreciate this. Not
long ago one couple, the first ten
ants in a new subdivision, gave a
Sunday night supper for all of John
son’s workers—the shipping clerks,
timekeepers, the general manager,
the truck drivers and all the people
who helped build the house.
How much better would we
be, I insisted, with our surreys
with the fringe on top instead
of our automobiles and our
trees instead of parking space?
A survey made by the highway
director of the District of Colum
bia, H. C. Whitehurst, shows that
52,000 vehicles skirt the circle
every day, not counting buses and
trolley cars. It is estimated that in
less than 10 years 68,000 cars a day
will be nosing by. That is the reason
for the underpass.
The two circles already operated
upon were Thomas Circle, an eight-
point intersection, and Scot Circle,
six-points. Since then the accident
rate has dropped 75 per cent, the
commission reports.
It is going to cost $3,800,000 to
operate on Dupont Circle—and the
trees.
WASHINGTON. — Prices of farm
products declined about 1 per cent
during the month ended April 15
after reaching record levels in mid-
March, according to the monthly
summary compiled by the bureau
of agricultural economics.
The index of prices received by
farmers in mid-April was 276 per
cent of the 1909-14 average com
pared with a mid March index of
280 and with 107 for the 1935-39
average.
Prices paid by farmers for pro
duction materials and cost of living
items, including interest and taxes,
continued an upward trend which
Path of Destruction
Devastating tornadoes cut a wide
swath through midwestem and east
ern states, leaving a wide path of
destruction in their wake.
Striking in a thickly populated
rural area south of Fairmont, N. C.,
a high-riding twister killed at least
one person, left an estimated 300
homeless and caused severe dam
age to tobacco crops.
The death toll from a tornado
which leveled the communities of
Bright Water and Garfield in north
west Arkansas was placed at nine.
The business section of Bright Wa
ter, population 100, was virtually
destroyed.
Most destructive of the twisters
was one which tore through small
towns in Missouri and Iowa, causing
13 casualties in the small town of
Worth, Mo. More than 50 others
were injured and property damage
was estimated in the thousands of
dollars. The same tornado lashed on
across into Iowa, striking at Clio,
where extensive property damage
resulted but no loss of life was re
ported.
Narrowly averting the heavily
populated city of Dallas, Tex., a
tornado smashed briefly to earth on
the city’s eastern outskirts, then
bounced skyward and disappeared.
In its wake, two persons were dead
and four were injured. Two other
Texas twisters caused less damage.
MINES:
Another Tragedy
Disaster struck again in the ever-
dangerous coal mines, an under
ground explosion in the Small
Spring Hill mine near Terre Haute,
Ind., snuffing out the lives of eight
miners. Three others survived the
blast.
The 11 miners were repairing and
improving the ventilating system of
the mine to prepare it for federal
inspection. Closed since the general
safety shutdown of April 1, the mine
had failed to pass the first federal
inspection.
The disaster was the fourth seri
ous mine accident of the year. Ma
jor catastrophe was the Centralia,
111., explosion of March 25, which
took a toll of 111 lives. Ten miners
were killed April 10 in a gas explo
sion at Exeter, Pa., and 15 lost
their lives January 15 at Plymouth,
Pa.
WRECKS:
Third for Pennsy
In the eerie pre-dawn hours, the
third wreck on the Pennsylvania
railroad’s middle Pennsylvania di
vision in three months killed four
persons and injured 34, eight seri
ously.
The American, New York to St.
Louis flyer, jolted into rods of sheet
steel protruding from the sides of
two gondola cars of a moving
freight train, the impact ripping a
tremendous hole in the side of the
fourth car of the American and
damaging the engine, mail car and
another coach. No cars were de
railed.
A moment later another freight
train ripped into the sheet steel pro
truding from the other side of the

months.
The index for these prices in mid-
April was 230 per cent of the 1909-14
average compared with 227 in mid-
March and 128 for the 1935-39 aver
age.
This advance in the index for
prices paid pushed farm parity
prices slightly higher. Parity prices
are theoretical standards used by
the government in determining
levels at which it will support prices
of farm products.
Increased prices paid by farmers
occurred primarily in feed, clothing
and building materials, although

a real-life rescue of Tom jyAndrea,

D'Andrea’s horse stumbled in a

The collision occurred at Boyer

from sites of the previous Red
Arrow and Sunshine Special train

the pre-dawn hours.
PALESTINE:
Explosive Issue
The explosive Palestine question
was marked by the usual wrangling
and confusion in action before the
steering committee of the United
Nations general assembly.
The 14-nation steering committee
rejected requests from the Arab
countries for the assembly to debate
at this session the question of can
celing the British mandate over
Palestine and freedom for the Holy
Land.
Dr. Oswaldo Arhnha of Brazil,
assembly president, failed to effect
a compromise be
fore the crucial
committee m e e t-
ing.
The Arabs denied
that their proposal
called for immedi-
a t e independence
for Palestine. They
insisted they mere
ly wanted a full
discussion of the
Dr. Aranha problem and recog
nition by the assembly of the prin
ciple of ultimate independence.
ALEMAN:
Cordial Welcome
First Mexican chief executive
ever to make a state visit to Wash

given a cordial reception on his trip
to the nation’s capital.
As the personal guest of President
Truman, the visiting dignitary par

arranged in his honor by the state,
war and navy departments and
Mexican embassy officials.
In speeches before the Pan-Amer

TRANSPORTATION TAX WORKS
HARDSHIP ON FAR WEST
* Justus F. Craemer is a California
newspaper publisher, and as such is
known to newspaper people in all
sections of the nation. He also is
a member of the California public
utilities commission, and has been
for a number of years. As a news
paper man his instinct and training
lead him to seek all that is due the
people he serves. As a public utili
ties commissioner, his job is to
search for, and correct, unfair prac
tices on the part of those serving
the public.
Either, or both, of those ca
pacities could account for
Craemer’s role in leading the
attack on what he insists is an
unfair system of federal taxes
levied on transportation
charges.
#
When you buy a car of coal you pay
a tax on the transportation of that
coal from the mine to you. But you
pay exactly the same amount of
tax whether the coal travels 100
miles or 2,500 miles, and regardless
of the amount of the transportation
cost. The tax is on the weight of
the coal, and is not a percentage of
the charge for transporting it to a
destination.
COAL ONLY EXCEPTION
Coal is the only commodity on
which the transportation tax is
on the basis of weight, and so
it is uniform regardless of the
distance. All other commodities
pay a transportation tax that is
a percentage of the transporta
tion charge, and so it is more
on a long haul than on a short
one.
Wool is produced in every state of
the union, but the one market is Bos
ton and the price is F.O.B. that
market. Should the Ohio farmer
ship a carload of wool to Boston, he
pays a transportation tax of $6.84.
When the Wyoming farmer ships a
car of the same commodity to the
same market, he will pay fully twice
the amount of transportation tax be
cause of the longer haul and the
higher transportation charge.
What is true of wool is true of
every other commodity whether
from the farm or the factory.
Potatoes grown in Maine and
shipped to New York must pay
a transportation tax of $7.50 on
each car, while potatoes grown
in Idaho must pay a tax of
more than twice the amount.
Craemer is especially interest
ed in citrus and other fruits and
in garden produce. His people
must compete in the eastern
market with the products of
Florida. The shipping tax on a
carload of oranges from Lake
Wales, Fla., to New York
amounts to $11.75, while the gov
ernment collects a tax of $21.03
on every carload of oranges
shipped to New York from Po
mona, Calif.
The total of the transportation tax
collected is not peanuts, but is a
sizable sum that, in the end, the con
sumer must pay. California citrus
growers will pay to Uncle Sam as
a transportation tax this year more
than a million dollars on the one
crop.
Craemer, as a Californian, insists
the present wnethod of assessing a
transportation tax on every com
modity, except coal, is inequitable,
and he is vociferously proclaiming
that the western states, regardless
of their distance from the eastern
markets, are a part of the United
States and are entitled to an equal
opportunity to compete in those mar
kets. A tax on weight, as it is in the
case of coal, or on the value of
the commodity would be equitable,
and that is what he, as a Califor
nian, is demanding.
In California they count on Craem
er getting what he goes after for
his people.

CALL RUSSIA’S BLUFF
The time to call Russia is NOW.
If she holds the winning hand, as
she would have us believe, we had
better find it out now than later. The
call should take the form of a re
fusal to recognize her persistent veto
of practically everything the major
ity of other governments represent
ed in United Nations stand for. Un
der the U. N. charter this move can
be made, as explained by Senator
Byrd. If, under such conditions,
Russia wants to withdraw from
U. N., that is her privilege. If she
should withdraw, then U. N. should
reverse the iron curtain and shut
Russia off from the rest of the world
that has not accepted Communism.

WE could, within a reasonable
time, pay off that 260 billion dollar
national debt if we would dis
pense with the needless, duplicating,
tax-eating bureaus and departments
of our municipal, county, state and
federal governments, and devote the
money saved to debt retirement.
We have 155,000 purely local gov
ernments, exclusive of state and
federal that are eating far more than
two billion dollars a year of the tax
payers’ money. How many in your
town or your county? It would pay
to investigate home conditions.
SCENIC WONDERLAND . . . Typical of the ragged and awe-inspiring
beauty of the four national parks in the Rockies is this scene in Rocky
Mountain National park in Colorado.
THE MAJESTIC ROCKIES
Chain of Parks Incorporates
Spectacular Mountain Scenery
WNU Features.
Towering peaks, deep, forest-clad canyons and lake-stud
ded gorges combine to provide a spectacular and awe-inspir
ing wonderland in the Rocky mountains. Here, where the maj
esty of the mountains reaches its supreme heights, congress
has established a chain of national parks, beginning with Yel
lowstone in 1872. These parks exemplify the many forms and
faces of the Rockies, with each pos-<&-
■essing a distictive character of its
•wn.

the Tetons, drains into Snake river,
a major tributary of the Columbia.
• • •
GLACIER PARK, lying up
against the Canadian border, and
forming a part of Waterton-Glacier
International Peace park, contains
nearly a million acres of land and
water. Although there are still some
60 glaciers, many of which the sum
mer visitor can reach without great
difficulty, it is the work of much
greater glaciers of thousands of
years ago which carved the many
valleys of the park that are chiefly
responsible for its name. In the val
leys and basins so formed lie more
than 200 lakes; these, reflecting the
sheer peaks which rise from 3,000
to 5,000 feet above them, provide
much of the spectacular beauty of
the park that makes it one of the
most photographed in the whole
park system.
A highway crosses the park, by
way of Logan pass on the Continen
tal Divide, and short spur roads ex
tend to several of the finest of the
lakes. However, Glacier is prima
rily and most enjoyably a horse
back park. The National Park serv
ice calls it the foremost trail park
as it, contains about 1,000 miles of
trails. The trails, rangers insist,
provide the best means of really
getting acquainted with the park.
Glacier also stands next to Yellow
stone in quantity and variety of big
game, of which the mountain goat
is probably the most famous spe
cies.
* * •
GRAND TETON, only a few
miles south of Yellowstone, and
flanked on the north and east by
Jackson Hole National monument,
is extraordinary both because of the
jagged, rugged grandeur of its
mountains and because of the fact
that these rise abruptly from what
geologists call the fault block
trough of Jackson. Hole. In other
words, on their eastern side they
have no foothills.
The tip of Grand Teton, with an
elevation of 13,766 feet, is more than
7,000 feet above Jackson Hole and
the lovely series of lakes—Jenny,
String, Leigh, Jackson and others—
that nestle against the base of the
range. These mountains, too, owe
much of their sculpture to glaciers,
of which a few remain in the higher
basins.
Packed with the 150-square mile
area of alpine park are 22 peaks of
more than 10,000-foot elevation as
well as numerous lakes, glaciers,
snowfields and extensive forests.
No highway crosses the range ex
cept at Teton Pass, where the Teton
range joins the Snake river range.
Only foot and bridle trails penetrate
the backcountry. Much of the area,
particularly the upper Teton coun
try, is virgin mountain-forest.
• • •
THE VISITOR to Rocky Moun
tain National park, lying about 75
miles northwest of Denver, is more
than a mile and a half above sea
level before he enters it. The park’s
lowest elevation is around 8,000
feet; its highest, the summit of
Long’s peak, is 14,255. Within the
park are some 65 named peaks of
more than 10,000 feet elevation, and
scores of lakes, small and large.
Here again lakes and peaks have
been carved by the slow and inex
orable movement of glacial ice.
Rocky Mountain is a great hiker’s
and mountain climber’s park, as
are Grand Teton and Glacier, but
it also offers the motorist one of the
greatest thrills to be found in any
national park. This is the Trail
Ridge road, of which more than
four miles are above 12,000 feet ele
vation and 11 miles are above the
11,000-foot timber line. From few
places in the world is there offered
such a far-flung panorama of spec
tacular mountain scenery.
Although the National Park serv
ice encdurages mountain climbing
in these and other parks of the sys
tem, its ranger force is called on
year after year to go to the rescue
of climbers who venture among the
peaks alone or under unskilled guid
ance; and it is seldom that a season
passes without one or more fatal
accidents to those who disregard
the safety rules which the service
enjoins on all climbers. The funda
mental piece of advice to the ven
turesome is: "If you want to climb,
consult a ranger. Get his advice;
and once you have it, abide by it. It
may mean the difference between
life and death.”
IN GLACIER National pafk,
there is almost every type of public
accommodation. Concession opera
tions in Rocky Mountain under con
tract with the government are lim
ited, but at Estes park, on the east
side, and Grand lakq, on the west
side, there are numerous hotels and
camps just outside of the national
park. At Grand Teton, there are no
hotel, lodge or camp concessions,
but there are varied accommoda
tions in the town of Jackson and at
many places in Jackson Hole.
MOUNTAIN PINNACLE . . . Jag
ged peaks and spectacular gla
ciers lure vacationers to Glacier
National park in Montana. This
imposing peak is Going-to-the-Sun
mountain as seen from St. Mary
lake.
Wildlife Refuge in Everglades Planned
Development of a new national
park in Florida’s tropical Ever
glades region is being expedited by
the National Park service and the
State of Florida. The Everglades,
known as the last stand of the
American crocodile, the roseate
spoonbill and other valuable wild
life species, will be preserved in its
primitive state as a wildlife refuge.
Thousands of islands lie within
the region, covered with dense veg
etation ranging from giant cypress
trees to royal palms. Indians still
hunt for fox, bear, panther, deer
and raccoon in this area. Croco
diles, alligators and numerous va
rieties of fish inhabit the waters. All
this wildlife, however, is dominated
by birds—gannets, curlews, ducks,
herons, the “long white” egrets, the
sand crane and the bald eagle.
The proposed park will cover
1,300,000 acres.
Engine Has Extra Turbine
For Reverse Traveling
In a new type of locomotive de
veloped in this country, the power
for forward motion is supplied by
a 6,900 horsepower steam turbine
through a set of nonshiftable
gears, says Collier’s. Therefore,
the locomotive has a second tur
bine of 1,500 horsepower equipped
with gears that are moved into op
erating position when it is nec
essary to back up.
