The MARCH OF TIME REG. U. S. PAT. OFF. Prepared by the Editors of TIME The Weekly Nowsmagazine PRESIDENT AT SEA— WASHINGTON—After a final conference with Budget Director Bell and a wind-up of other press matters, President Roosevelt laid farewell to Attorney General Homer Cummings and RF Chairman Jesse Jones at Washington's uplion station one evening last week, entrained for Charleston where, next morning, South Carolina's Governor Johnston, Mayor Maybank and two miles of cheering citizens saw him to the "Indianapolis." There, accompanied by Son James, military and naval aides and the White House physician, President Roosevelt was oiped aboard, mounted the bridge, waved good-by, promised: "I'm going to have a good time." Then the "Indianapolis" cast off, Fort Moultrie's guns boomed a presidential salute, and Franklin Roosevelt dropped below the horizon with three representatives of the press associations and secret service men trailing in his wake half a mile behind on the cruiser "Chester." At Port of Spain, Trinidad, four days later the "Indianapolis" anchored to refuel, let newshawks peek at the President and learn nothing, let the President take a three-hour fishing junket in a whale boat and catch nothing. The swift voyage resumed, newshawks racked their brains and filled the ether with chit-chat about the President's initiation by Neptune's Court when crossing the equator. CAPITOL SHIFTS— WASHINGTON — Just before his departure for Charleston to board the swift cruiser "Indianaapolis" enroute for the Pan American Peace conference at Buenos Aires, President Roosevelt last week commissioned Washington Lawyer Joseph Edward Davies U.S. ambassador to the U. S. S. R.; named Charles Edison, son of the Inventor Thomas Alva Edison, assistant secretary of the navy to fill the vacancy left last February by the death of Henry Latrobe Roosevelt; accepted the resignation of Columbia professor and New Deal Resettlement Administrator Dr. Rexford Guy Tugwell: "I fully understand the reasons that make you feel you should, for awhile at least, return to private life . . . I want you to know that later on I fully expect to ask you to come back to render additional service." ARD-3 WASHINGTON — Similar in purpose to the repair unit which follows a motorized military unit into the field is the repair ship, part of the auxiliary service fleet following in the wake of the U.S. battle fleet, capable of making only minor or temporary repairs on smaller craft, incapable, with capital ships, of fixing the broken propellers, rudders or loosened plates below the waterline. To overcome the necessity of sending ships to drydock, some times thousands of miles away, the navy department last week proposed to build a $15,000,000 floating drydock to be known as the ARD-3 (auxiliary repair dock) to be 1,016 ft. long, 165 ft. beam 75 ft. high from keel to top deck Large enough to take care of anything the U.S. navy now haifaft and almost anything smaller than the "Queen Mary" that is likely to be launched, ARD-3 will have a streamlined bow like any ordinary ship, steering equipment in the stern so it can be towed at arate of 10 knots. A pair of huge dam gates in her stern, when opened, will reveal a great reefangular chasm 125 ft. wide and running almost the entire length of the craft. When an ailing battleship is brought into position astern of the ARD-3, the dock's great bottom tanks will be pumped full of water to sink its keel below that of the battleship moved forward into ARD-3's spacious midsection, be lifted high and dry as the water is pumped out of the dock's bottom tanks. Basing its predictions of success for ARD-3, (to cost about twice as much as a stationary drydock) on its experience with the small experimental ARD-1 (446 ft.) which for two years has lifted small destroyers and submarines, the navy last week prepared to take bids for ARD-3's construction. ARD-3 will be used in the Pacific, will likely be built on the west coast since it will be too large to pass through Panama canal.

ANAHEIM GAZETTE OFTY GOOFTY— RACINE, Wisconsin—Spotting the name OFTY GOOFTY BOW-MAN in Racine's telephone book, newshawks incredulously rang the number. Ofty Goofty Bowman, 56, answered, readily revealed he had been named by his parents after an actor they used to know in Cleveland. Teased in his schooldays, he said the name no longer embarrasses him socially or in his work as a shipping clerk, exclaimed: "By gosh, it's my name and I'm going to stick by it." DU PONT'S PLEASURE— PHILADELPHIA — Political cartoonist for the rampantly pro-New Deal Philadelphia "Record" is bespectacled Gerald Aloysius ("Jerry") Doyle, who daily flays the Big Interests for the edification of some 328,222 readers. Last week Doyle delighted Eugene (Liberty League) du Pont, of nearby Wilmington, Del., whose daughter Ethel is to marry Franklin Roosevelt, Jr., in June, with a cartoon depicting young Roosevelt as Romeo beneath a balcony festoned with elephant-cupids on which a "Juliet du Pont" declared: "Tis but thy name that is my enemy... What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet." Hurrying to a telephone, Daddy du Pont called Cartoonist Doyle, asked for the original. Canny Jerry Doyle, whose pictorial presentations of the du Ponts have hitherto been distinctly unflattering, assumed that he was talking to a prankster, glibly promised to mail the drawing, did nothing about it. Next morning he read in his paper that du Pont had actually made the request, hastened to send off the cartoon, with his compliments, for the du Pont's pleasure. du Pont will frame the picture, give it to his daughter and son-in-law, for a wedding present. Congressman, decided instead to run for Sheriff of Erie county, a hack job likely to net him more money in fees than he could earn before the bar. Elected, he promptly cleaned out graft in the county jail, made himself unpopular with local politicians. As sheriff, he had the distasteful job of hanging young Patrick Morrissey who came home drunk one night, killed his mother with a bread knife. Unwilling to ask another man to do a dirty job like that, "Big Steve" had a gallows built in the jail yard a canvas stretched overhead to prevent the curious from seeing from neighboring housetops. Then, after taking unusual precautions to have the execution go off swiftly and without a hitch, he took a stand where he could not see Matricide Patrick, sprung the trap. Faced again with this disagreeable task the following year, when a dissolute young saloon-keeper shot a man in a game of cards, Sheriff Steve went to law to test his convict's sanity, even convoked a special jury and himself read them the law on insanity and murder. But he had to play hangman a second time. Eight years later the same young sheriff was elected mayor of Buffalo, nine years later governor of New York, twelve year later, on March 4, 1885, he, Stephen Grover Cleveland, became the first hangman President of the U.S. Last week in Buffalo workmen poling around in the garage of the county jail came upon some duty timbers. After they were examined the present sheriff of Erie county offered them to the Buffalo Historical society as an historic relic; the gallows on which the 22nd and 24th President of the U.S. had hanged two men. The timbers were all there, but the rope was missing. inet was Minister of Interior Roger Salengro, who, paradoxically committed suicide last week because his enemies had repeated attack his war record, asserted that, as a cyclist dispatch rider Salengro had deserted to the enemy. Ever since August the week "Gringoire" and other Paris periodicals of the Right have been hammering at "Cyclist Salengro in word and cartoon, and comics in Paris theatres have nightly mocked him. When friends M. Salengro said that a Commission of Honor had recently investigated his war record and cleared him of desertion, enemies cracked back that still-living officers of Salengro's regiment, wrought to know, all say today Paris that he was a deserter. While his enemies' demands for an investigation continued unabated, the chamber of deputies after a fisticuffing, shin-kick fight, fortnight ago voted 427-103 complete vindication of the minister of the interior and Prime Blum then and there embraced him as both wept, apparently for joy. Home in Lille last week, when he lived alone attended only one housekeeper and a chauffeur Widower Salengro stuffed clothes around his kitchen windows down to seal them, turned on gas stove, died of asphyxiation at 11:30 p.m., was not discovered until next morning. For Pre-Blum he left a note: "I have fought valiantly for my part, but I have come to the end if they have not succeeded in honoring me, at least they bear the reason biloba." NEW Long Distance TELEPHONE RATES ROME—Definitely feeble nowadays, Pope Pius XI has lately been variously described as suffering from dropsy, uremia, Bright's disease, asthma, poor metabolism, heaviness of limb. In private audience with the Holy Father last week, a prelate made reference to newspaper accounts of his health, received this sporting reply (translated into English by a United Press correspondent in Rome): "It seems that the earthly informants know more than the Principle News-Maker, God, who so far has not 'tipped' us when our earthly days are nearing an end. Needless to say, we are ready for any tip or official news." HISTORIC RELIC—BUFFALO, N.Y.—Rated as one of Buffalo's ablest young lawyers 66 years ago, "Big Steve," at 33, had been assistant district attorney; stood a good chance of being elected district attorney or SCHUMANN-HEINK—HOLLYWOOD—Mme. Ernestine Schumann-Heink, 75, famed Austrian-born contralto, died last week in Hollywood of a hemorrhage of the throat and lungs, after leukemia. Daughter of a major in the Imperial army, she sang in her first public concert at Graz at 15, earned $6. When she applied for an audition at the Vienna Court opera, she was told to "buy a sewing machine and go to work." In 1878 she won a debut and a four-year contract at Dresden, was chosen by Cosima Wagner to sing at Bayreuth before she was brought to Manhattan's Metropolitan Opera company in 1898. During the war her son August died as a German sailor, her sons Henry and George Washington enlisted with the U.S. navy. At 65 she embarked on a 20,000-mile "farewell tour," had signed a three-year movie contract when she was taken ill.
