Governor Also Opposes Aboli
tion of Reserve Officers’
Training Camps.
By the Associated Press.
ALBANY, N. Y„ January 28.—Gov.
Franklin D. Roosevelt, an avowed can
didate for the Democratic presidential
nomination, placed himself on record
Tuesday night as emphatically opposed
to curtailment of two divisions of the
Nation's military defense.
Mr. Roosevelt, Assistant Secretary of
the Navy during the wartime admin
istration of Woodrow' Wilson, told at a
dinner of the American Legion mem
bers of the New York State Legislature
that he hoped Congress would not trim
the strength of the National Guard
units by cutting appropriations.
"I hope." the Governor said, "that
reports from Washington are not true
that the Congress is going to reduce the
training allotments for the National
Guard and abolish the Reserve officers'
training camps.
“It is just as importont to train Re
serve officers and maintain the effi
ciency of the National Guard as it is
to maintain the Regular Army and
Navy.
"That is the principal military lesson
we learned in the World War."
The governor allowed himself only
this indirect way of touching on Na
tional affairs During the day he was
shown dispatches quoting Newton D.
Baker, also a potential Democratic
nominee, as believing the United States
would some day join the League of Na
tions. His answer to a request for a
statement from him on the League was:
Thank you for letting me see it
(the dispatch), but I am too busy to
talk about it.”
FAMILY STABILITY HELD
DEMONSTRATED BY CRISIS
_____________
Secretary of Social Hygiene Society
Says Record Challenges
Charge of Breakdown.
That the vitality and stability of the
American family as an institution is
one of the outstanding facts developed
by the present economic crisis was the
conclusion drawn by Paul L. Benjamin,
executive secretary of the Social Hy
giene Society, in addressing a meeting
of the board of directors Tuesday.
"The family has shown an amazing
strength and cohesiveness under the
stress of economic depression,” Mr. Ben
jamin said, "that is a direct challenge
to those who point to an increasing
divorce rate as indicative of a break
down of family life.”
One effect of the depression, he said,
has been the falling off in the practice
of private medical practitioners and the
corresponding increase in the number of
patients who avail themselves of the
free or moderate-priced clinics and dis
pensaries.
Establishment of additional social
hygiene clinic facilities for the District
was urged by Mrs. Thomas R. West,
chairman of the Legislative Committee.
She said the present facilities are in
adequate
Will Eiscuss Commandments.
Rabbi Abraham Simon will give an
interpretation of the Ten Command
ments tomorrow night at the Eighth
Street Temple. Dr. Simon’s address will
deal largely in answering the questions
as to whether the Commandments still
hold a message for modern man.
London Barkeep
Offerg $250 Bet
On Own Cocktail
—
Drink Will Increase
Appetites of Britons on
Rum Commission.
—
Prize fighters have been known to
bet on their prowess, Jockeys on their
skill and nerve, but London has the
first bartender to bet $250 the cock
tail he concocts will make you enjoy
dinner.
That is, you are eligible for the wager
If you happen to be a member of the
British Liquor Commission, which "re-,,
gards with apprehension the growth of
the cocktail habit" in England.
Upon reading those hard words about
his beloved art, Harry Craddock, vet
eran barkeep at the Savoy Hotel, in
vited the commisisoners in for a free
drink. If the cocktail he mixes for
them does not increase their enjoy
ment of meals, Harry will give $250 to
any good cause lamed by the visitors,
“Cocktails have been condemned un
heard," Harry laments. “One cock
tall,” he says, with emphasis on the
one, “is the best appetizer known. I
have mixed cocktails in New York and
London for 30 years, and more are
drunk today than ever before. I mean
more cocktails are drunk today."
So far no commissioner has accepted
the challenge. Fearing their wrell
known scruples against “perpendicular
drinking” might have deterred them,
Harry has announced there are plenty
of chairs in his emporium.

TRADE COMMISSION
BUILDING TO BE RAZED
Site at Eighteenth Street and Con
stitution Avenue to Be Cleared
for Pan-American Offioes.
The building housing the Federal
Trade Commission at Eighteenth street
and Constitution avenue will soon be
torn down to make way for the $1,000,
000 Pan-American Union office structure.
Officials of the Public Buildings Com
mission are considering moving the
Women’s and Children’s Bureaus of the
Labor Department, which will release
space into which the Federal Trade
Commission will be shifted. These units
are to be transferred from temporary
building No. 5, at Twentieth street and
Constitution avenue.
If plans being considered by Lieut.
Col. U. S. Grant, 3d, executive officer
of the Public Buildings Commission, are
adopted, space released by the Bureau
of Mines in the Winder Building, Sev
enteenth and F streets, will be taken
over by the Labor Department, which is
hard pressed for additional space. The
Winder Building would afford 89,000
square feet of space.
The Civil Service Commission Is
slated to move into the old Patent Office
Building at Ninth and P streets, and Is
vacating the premises at 1723 and 1725
F street. These are being considered for
use by the Labor Department.
Pert of the Bureau of Labor Statis
tics in the Walker-Johnson Building, at
Eighteenth street and New York avenue,
Is planned for removal to one of the
structures to go under Labor Depart
ment jurisdiction.
The huge murals for the Los Angeles
Public Library are said to be the larg
est modem murals ever painted.
