WASHINGTON, D. C, July 31. ir
anyone suppose that only the strang
er coming to Washington Is unable to
find his way about in the bewlldsr
lng multiplicity of government de
partments, bureau, administrations
and commissions, he has only to ask
the United States information serv
ice to be disabused of such a notion
This service was set up several
months ago to answer questions, fool
ish and otherwise, about where to find
this or that agency, whom, to see when
you got there and which agency to
seek on any specific errand. It was
Intended primarily to meet the needs
of the public outside the capital and
those who came here on business with
the government or even seeking a Job.
As it has turned out, the bureau
kas been extremely useful to the out
side public, but, strangely enough,
half of Its business Is in supplying In
formation to persona In the govern
ment about some branch of the gov
ernment with which they are nut
connected or with which they are un
familiar. Those in official places
don't know their way about.
The government machine was al
Kwly vast and Intricate before the
advent of the new deal, but with new
commissions and administrations be.
trig set up almost every day there
have been between 30 and 40 new
ones It is impossible to keep printed
directories up to date, and, without
some central clearing house of Infor
mation, it would be a hopeless tasic
to trv to run down the habitat of
some of the fledgling creations. Pew
days certain of them were unhoused
and went about hunting for a name
In these circumstances the Informa-
' t on service itself has to do a lot of
routing to keep up with the proces
sion and be able to justify itscu.
Although 50 per cent of the appeals
for help come from the government
departments, senators and represen
tatives also dump troublesome In
qulries from constituents on the bu
reau, and letters pour in not only
from all over the United States, but
from all parts of the world. Letters
have come from Slam and from China
Great curiosity about the working of
the various plans put Into effect here
M manifested In all foreign countries.
If a department receives a letter
concerning a matter which is i
under Its Jurisdiction, it sends It to
the information service to be rou,od
to the correct destination. The pirt
of the public winch has gained
knowledge of the service seems to
regard it as omnipotent and omnis
cient and very soon tt probably w!ll
be called upon to solve domestic dif
ficulties. One writer asked that the bureau
wfurniah a formula which will ex
tract paint and sizing glue from shade
cloth without injuring the muslin."
prom the deep south came the Mace
oonlan cry, "Send me a bulletin on
termites, boring beetles and other in
sects." B-sides answering question about
the government and the operation of
new laws, the service, as a sideline, is
almost a mlMlng persons bureau.
When the postofflce. telegraph or
telephone companies are unable to
find a person at a given address they
usually turn to the US1S.
Since his return from Europe. Am-hJwndor-at-Lare
Norman Davis has
several times publicly expressed his
belief that there was no immediate
d.nper of war In Europe, but the rea
son for this conviction only became
known cn his visit here.
Mr. Davis reported that there Is
dep social unrest in all countries,
but. so fr from this making Inter
national conflict probable, it Is J'JSt
the other way around. The disgrun
tled and disaffected peoples are no',
sicry with their neighbors and have
f ro wish to fizht them.
' They seem to reale that they snd
their neighbors are all in the same
boat and that their troubles are eco
nomic, not political or racial. Hence,
the ancer that Is In them Is directed
affs'.nst their own governments snd
ret arsln?t the foreigner.
Another check on war moves la the
fact that the varous governments are
quite aware of this feeling imon the
people. They know the masses have
no stomach for war and, if one were
undertaken, they could not be ure

WAIMEA, Hawaii, July 30
This is written out here on the
world's famous Parker ranch.
There are marvelous cattle
ranches on these) islands and
these native cowboys are plen
ty handy with those rawhide
r'iatas. Thirty thousand head
of high grado Hereford on this
Parker ranch. Over half a mil
lion acres.
The best horses I ever saw on
any ranch anywhere. Nothing
under soven-eighths thorough
bred. Over 600 horses just in
the saddle horse string.
You fly to theso various
islands in an amphibian plane
on a well-managed and equip
ped line. They arc all connect
ed by wireless telephone. This
is phoned to the Honolulu
islands.
