Looks Like the City Dump
It’s not, though—not by a long shot. The photographer had
to go only as far as the Treasury to find this scene, which shores
a broken automobile bumper, a broken bottle, matches and
cigarette butts. Undoubtedly, the Treasury Department wel
comed the “Clean-up weeks,” which began last week.

Daughters of 1812 Hear Ad-;
dress by Andre La Fargue, :
French Legion Head.
The women of present-day America
should stand shoulder to shoulder
with their men in times of stress,
just as they did in the War of 1812,
Andre La Fargue, commander of the
Legion of Honor of France, told the
Daughters of 1812 last night at their
annual banquet at the Willard Hotel.
La Fargue cited Dolly Madison,
Elizabeth Patterson Bonaparte and
Rachel Jackson as examples of wom
en of the 1812 period. He also cited
the heroic efforts of women in the
Battle of New Orleans and proposed
a park be created in its memory like
that for Gettysburg and Yorktown.
Dr. Earl E. Harper, president of
Simpson College, also spoke last night,
having been forced to miss the open
ing session on Monday due to the
weather. He told the delegates that
"America is demanding more and
more education of a useful sort and a
longer educative period for its youth.”
The banquet was one of the high
points in the forty-fifth annual con
vention of the society. A chorus of
harpists, led by Mrs. Dorothy John
stone Baseler, and impersonations of
early Presidents’ wives by Miss Mar
garet P. Blish featured the dinner
.program.
Mrs. John Francis Weinmann, re
tiring president of the society, was
honored with a silver book from the
society, presented by Mrs. Robert J.
Johnston, honorary national presi
dent, and a medal from the Louisiana
Historical Society, presented by La
Fargue.
Hew officers of the society were
nominated yesterday without oppo
sition.
Mrs. Arthur J. O'Neill of Chicago,
former national treasurer of the so
ciety, was named for president.
Those named with Mrs. O'Neill are
Miss Minnie B. Wade, first vice presi
dent; Mrs. A. Lee Smiser, second
vice president; Mrs. H. B. Diefen
bach. third vice president; Mrs. Joseph
W. Marsh, fourth vice president; Mrs.
William A. Porter, corresponding sec
retary; Mrs. Maurice A. Blake, treas
urer; Mrs. Henry W. Warren, his
torian; Miss Katherine H. Wootten,
librarian, and Mrs. P. S. Tilson, cura
tor.
During the day Mrs. Weinmann
presented a Slate charter for the New
Hampshire society to Mrs. R. H.
Steams, who has reorganized the
State society during the last year after
it had been disbanded several years
•go.
Reports of State presidents occupied
the 500 delegates this morning. The
•fternoon program calls for reports of
committees, culminating in installa
tion of new officers and adjournment.
Three members of the society are
present at the convention whose
fathers fought in the War of 1812.
They are Mrs. George F. Sibley and
Mrs. Clara L. Dowling, both of Wash
ington, and Mrs. Betty Jordan Elliott,
Greensboro, N. C.
