S. to Give Away Islands To tha Editor of Tha Inquirer: BEVERLY HILLS, Calif, March 29 Mr. Hoover just got back from Porto Rico after a call with our little dark brown cousins. He told 'em he would see that they had the same opportunities we enjoy here, so I guess he is having Charley Otis and Company, stock brokers, put in a branch down there.

That will give them a leisure class, and the rest of 'em employment working for 'em. The President didn't think much of the Virgin Islands. He thought we were bunked on that- deal. I think myself we was perhaps influenced by the title. We are mighty good colonizers.

We ought to sell (or give away to some enemy) our island holdings, and concentrate entirely on the old headquarters ranch here at home. Yours, WILL ROGERS (Copyright. 1981.)

ntii out Htwt: x. w. WASHINGTON, March 29. The office of Indian Affairs In the U. 8.

Department of Interior has been com pletely reorganized under a programme prepared after a year of study by Indian Commissioner Charles J. Rhoads and Assistant Commissioner J. Henry Scattergood, both Philadelphians. Under the new programme the organization of the office, which was basically unchanged for more than half a century and which operated along purely clerical lines In a cumbersome manner, has been modernized and Is being administered by technically trained men with more extensive executive powers. Among the new executives Is Dr.

W. Carson Ryan, formerly professor of education at Swarthmore College, who was appointed director of education for Indian Affairs. The changes, effective immediately, place increased responsibility on new officials, who were selected for their knowledge of Indian problems. Problems of human relations for the first time will be handled separately from those Involving administration of property, each under direction of an assistant to the commissioner. New field divisions will be created for health, education, agricultural extension, Industry, forestry, irrigation and activities dealing with tribal and individual property.

The programme climaxes the corect- ive process Rhoads and Scattergood utgan upon taking office in 1928 Since then Congress has doubled their appropriations; civil service qualifications and salaries for the field personnel of 5000 have been raised; extensive construction has been undertaken to correct conditions at schools and hospitals: food allow ances for children in boarding schools have been increased, and the heavy larjor previously done by scnool children has been taken from them. The commissioners have replaced twenty-four out of the 110 superin tendents or reservations and lnstltu tions. Of the new men, fifteen were promoted within the Indian Service and nine were taken from outside. Eleven superintendents were retired for age or disability, six were de nioted. two were discharged and one resigned "with prejudice Four posts: were vacant.

Magnes Addresses Jew- Ish Publication Society In thousands of private homes in the Near East there are treasure hoards of rare and valuable books and pamphlet which contain the key to unwritten chapters of Semetic culture and history. An expedition should be formed to gather these writings in Palestine and other coun tries, so tnat many "lost works" can be brought to the light again and saved for posterity. 'inis message was brousht here last night by Dr. Judah L. Masnes.

chancellor of Hebrew University at jeruseiem, who addresed the fortv- third annual meeting of the Jewish Publication Society of America at Dropsie College, Broad and York streets. Dr. Magnes spoke of the magnificent library being assembled at Hebrew University, which, he ex plained, is attempting to "preserve the urientai treasures of the Near East, rare manuscripts and prints from homes and communities." Each year, ne saia, manuscripts wnich are ab solutely unique are being lost to the world, destroyed in one way or aa other by people who do not know the real values. The following were re-elected offlc ers of the Jewish Publication Society: Simon Miller, president; Judge Horace Stern and Adolph S. Ochs, vice presidents, and Howard Wolf, treasurer, in his annual message, Mr Miller sketched the work of the so ciety during the past year with particular attention to the new volumes published.

I III CITY MANAGER BILL Municipal Research Bureau Stresses Importance of Fi nancial Provisions Provisions concerning the municipal budget contained in the city manager bill now before the Legislature are worthy of study, according to the most recent Issue of "Citizens' Bus lness," publication of the Bureau of Municipal Research.

These provisions are new, and were not contained in the city manager bill introduced in 1929, which died in committee. "The bill now before the Legislature," the bureau states, "provided for an additional major change, one relating to the city's budget procedure. It would postpone the final date for fixing the tax rate from December 15 of the preceding year to February 10 of the year to which the tax rate is to apply. "At the latter date city council would have definite knowledge of the amount of the surplus or deficit of the previous year's operations and would also have before it the actual, Instead of merely the estimated, assessed valuation of property to be taxed. This provision and new provisions governing floating debt are Intended to obviate the huge deficits the city has had in past years." The bureau points out that the city manager bill would alter the present city charter to produce the following: A city council elected by proportional representation, providing for minority party representation: city manager, as business head of the municipality, appointed by Council; a Mayor appointed by Council, as ceremonial head of the city, and a Civil Service Commission appointed by the city manager.

Few Palm Sunday Visitors Brave Chill to Show Spring Finery Early Morning Cold Wind Show in City Shower and Spoil Style Wroks of planninR and conniving, tedious hours ol careful shopping and days of exhilarating expectation on the part of thousands of women of Philadelphia and its environs went for naught yesterday when a chill, dampish Palm Sunday knocked the traditional prc-Easter style parade Into the proverbial "cocked hat." The weather in the city leaden skies across which low, scudding clouds were blown was duplicated at Atlantic City with the result that the "dress rehearsal" on the boardwalk was a thing out of the question.

Saturday's heavy rain lasted well past daylight yesterday, but hopes were revived somewhat when the clouds parted and some sunshine managed to struggle through, only to yield as clouds again grew threatening toward evening. Reports from Atlantic City indicated only ft comparative "handful" of visitors instead of the thousands who usually promenade when Palm Funday is brilliant, balmy day. The downpour made thousands hesitate, and yesterday morning's unpromising outlook clinched their decision to stay home, There were tnose hardy souls on ths Boardwalk, among the thousands who did motor to Atlantic City from Philadelphia, New York and othor points, who braved the chances of cold In the head or pneumonia to blossom forth in all the glory of the seasonable shades, with blues and grays predominating. But the majority of the visitors uppeared for their promenade well muffled up In good, friendly garments designed more for warmth and comfort than for show. Bus and railroad company officials reported heavy shore traffic, but were unanimous In saying that It "fell fsr short of expectations." In Philadelphia those who searched the streets for glimpses of pre-Eas-ter finery had to keep a sharp eye for a peck beneath a coat which a chance gust of wind might lift ever to slightly.

HatB, of course, had their day without competition. Milady might have to hide her new frock, but she could don her hat smartly and gaunter forth to show off that much cf the newest acquisition to her wardrobe and not freeze to death doing so. The weather man end It was un- dertermlned how many disappointed women called him several unkind names In which "perverse" sounded clear had been right in his predic tions for Palm Sunday, and the rain and wind and clouds and thermom eter did Just as he had said they would. There were those hopeful ones who felt that he "might guess wrong," but he dlQn guess, it seem ed. CAFE MANAGER HELD UP Choked and Beaten by thug Mho Robs Cash Register Maurice Shapiro, proprietor of a restaurant at 3517 North Ninth street, early yesterday was choked and struck over the head with a blackjack by a bandit who robbed the cash register of $26.

The screams of Shapiro, who sought to frustrate the holdup, attracted his wife, Sophie, who entered the store just as the assailant was leaving. Police within two hours arrested William Cleaver, 45, Eleventh street near Lehigh avenue, who was identified by as the bandit. The prisoner was held in $2000 ball for court by Magistrate Zweig at the Fourth and York streets police station.

The new local group was the sixth from this city.

A sight-seeing tour of the city and a programme ot social events featured the convention programme during the weekend brought to a close by a reception ai the Stephen Oirard Hotel last night.

Wiggling fingers of fifteen school children rescued from the Arctic gale which Imprisoned them for 38 hours in a snow-flllrd bus near Towner, Thursday and Friday, today bolstered hope for their recovery, Today, for the first time since their release from the marooned bus, in which five of their companions perished and near which Carl Miller, driver, was found dead, the children were able to.

move their fingers which had been paralyzed by the cold" The youthful survivors of the most severe blizzard in Colorado In more than 40 years also could move their limbs, but their toes still were too numb. The rapid progress the children have made since being brought to the Maxwell Hospital here by airplane and automobile, attendants believe, indicates no amputation will be necessary. Endure Intense Pain Throughout the night the little patients bravely endured the pains of partly frozen bodies now throbbing with me. occasionally, however, terrifying screams came from the hospital room ns evidence many still were suffering from the tortures which follow freezing, From others who have recovered more rapidly came cries as, in their sleep, they lived over again the agonizing thirty- six hours in the bus on the blizzard- gripped prairie of Southeastern Colorado. Marked improvement was noted by hospital attendant after daybreak.

Screams ceased. All were able to take nourishment and all showed interest when comic pages from Sunday newspapers were read to them. The survivors are Laura Huffaker, Lena Huffaker, Max Huffaker, 10; Carl Huffaker, 11; Charles Huffaker, 14; Alice Huffaker, 15; Maxlne Brown, 10: Rosemary Brown, 13; Blanche Stonebreaker, 10; Clara Smith, 15; Leland Frost, Eunice Frost, 14; Evelyn Untiedt, 10; Bryan Untiedt, 13, and ome untiedt, 8.
