Some of the history and tradition of the part of the upper Potomac which is being sought by industrialists for power uses and by governmental planners for preservation as a park is conr tained in an article in the March issue of the National Geographic Magazine. written by Gilbert Grosvenor.

president of tlie National Geographic Society. It is an argument for the preservation of this area as a parkway, an area which he says abounds in tradition. and is valuable for biological study. The i.aturr.l beauties and wonders are described by the author, who also gives a quotation from a writing of 1 Viscount James Bryce, urging preservation of Great Falls. Mr.

article follows: rock-hewn gorge and magnifl' cent falls of the Potomac River are the most striking scenic features in the vicinity of the National Capital. The broad, calm stream that flows by Potomac Park, separating Washington and suddenly above the city. Its shores change from bottom lands and gently rolling hills to take on the sterner aspect of palisades, cut at frequent intervals by deep gullies. through some of which small streams enter the river in tumultuous cascades. Ravines Are Steep.

the Virginia side, where the cliffs rise almost sheer from the water's edge, these ravines are so steep and so i numerous that a journey along the aluffs entails more travel vertically than in a horizontal direction. "Just above the ruins of the old Aqueduct Bridge, which formerly carried a canal across the river, the trio of jagged rocks known as The Three Sisters recall a romantic legend of the Red Men who once roamed these rugged shores. to the tradition, these rocks mark The place where the three daughters of an Analostan chief were caught in a whirlpool and dragged to their watery grave. They were paddling across the river, so the story goes, to a secret tryst with their Powhatan lovers on the Virginia shore, but the river demons intervened and, after accomplishing the destruction of the sisters, caused the three gloomy rocks to rise from the spot where their bodies sank beneath the waves. "The Virginia and Maryland shores converge rapidly as one journeys up the river, until a few miles above Washington they are separated by less than 100 feet of water, now swift and turbulent.

Little Falls, which is a scries of rapids, the river widens again. Numerous islands spr.ngle the Maryland shore, while Virginia's become wilder and more rugged. The waters pursue a more leisurely course here, but it is only a temporary calm before the storm, and 15 miles above the Capital they gather for a majestic plunge over a wall of granite which all the ages of work has been unable to wear down. Impressive Grandeur. falls offer a scene of Impressive grandeur.

Heaps of rocks are scattered granite boulders and jagged reefs of if some Titan of long ago had vented his wrath by upheaving the crust of the earth itself The wildness of the place, as the waters chum and boil In their neverending warfare with the rocks, is comparable only to some of the larger mountain canyons of the West, and is hard to conceive as being within a few miles of the Capital City. the river here tumbles through a rather narrow channel in its race for the Chesapeake, but when Spring melts the mountain snows and deluged valleys pour their overflowing streams into its upper reaches the falls become a swirling flood that rages from shore to shore with a roar that may be heard for miles. "The old Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, which paralleled the Potomac from Georgetown up to and on beyond the falls, was begun about the same time as the Baltimore Ohio Railway, and there was once a keen rivalry between them for the freight traffic between Washington and Cumberland. But the outdistanced the faithful, plodding mules of the towpath. and the canal is no longer In operation.

"However, transportation's loss has been the gain of thousands who know and love the hike along the towpath, with its grrat trees and thickets fringing the still waters of the canal, while here and there a moss-lncrusted rock, bolder than the rest, Juts out like some mlniatUM Lorelei. retreat for Bird. Birds frequent the vicinity countless thousands. Wrens, sparrows, warblers, thrushes and myriad other varieties haunt the thickets. Kingfishers seek their prey along the water's edge.

Mocking birds arc permanent residents of the woods, and the cheery whistle of the lordly cardinal may be heard at almost any time of year. Indeed, at certain seasons this magnificently caparisoned songster is encountered in flocks. "Where Cabin John Creek comes down to the river man has carried a road across the precipitous valley on one of the world's largest single spans of masonry.

The late Viscount James Bryce, Ambassador of Great Britain to the United States and stanch friend and admirer of America, In writing of the beauties of Washington in the National Geographic magazine. said: is impossible to live in Washington and not be struck by some peculiar features and some peculiar beauties which your city possesses.

In the first place, its site has a great deal that is admirable and charming. There is rising ground inclosing on all sides a level space, and so making a beautiful amphitheater between hills that arc rich wit woods.

BY DAVID LAWRENCE. Wliilo on the surface It looks as if the United States Government will have returned only 80 per cent of the property of Germans seized during the war bill to that effect, having Just passed both Houses of the expectation is that banks throughout the world will cash at a slight discount the certificates to be issued to the German claimants, covering the remaining 20 per cent of their property.

Most, of the German property which the American Government holds was turned into cash anyway, and has been held in the Treasury in the form of Government bonds. Interest has been accumulating and has been carefully accounted for. so that when the various claimants were finally told they could have only 80 per cent of their property back and the rest would be held in trust but that they would be given cctrlflcatcs of ownership, no objection was raised as it was felt these could be sold to the banks. Tay From Treasury. It may take 20 or even 50 years for the American Government to be reimbursed for the sums it is advancing to American citizens who lost property or the lives of relatives through operations of German submarines.

The American Government, under the bill which is now before the President for signature, will pay nil the American claimants out of the Treasury, but will reimburse itself out of the annual payments to be made by Germany on reparat ions under the Dawes plan. Hence the Americart Government held back 20 per cent as a sort of protection for itself. There is no certainty, however, that even if reparations were not paid the United States Government would ultimately refuse to turn back the private property of the Germans, as it is contrary to international law for private property to be held after peace has been declared, and the American Government lias been criticized for holding the German property 10 years. The defense given, however, has been that under the treaty with Germany, the American Government was given the right to confiscate German property if it chose, but in that same treaty, the United States expressed a desire to give the property back when the American claims against Germany had been satisfied. Bill Troves Popular.

There were very few votes cast against the bill in either house and some of the criticism was directed at the fact that the United States did not restore all the German property. The allied governments did not return any German property, thereby superseding principle which for many generations had been defended by International Jurists as an equitable one in respect of private citizens, who are made the innocent victims of the acts of their respective governments. The possibility that the certificates representing the 20 per cent balance will be bought by banking institutions and held for collection out of German reparations over a period of years with accumulated interest, is being discussed and if the certificates arc converted into cash, the effect will be to give German claimants practically all their property in cash, thus Ambling the American Government to point tr practically a complete restoration of private property within 10 years after the signing of the armistice.
