Nolan of Jeanette, Pa., are pronounced inadequate, im an article appearing today in the Journal of the American Medical Association. “Such reliable evidence as is avail- able regarding the effects following the inhalation of carbon and calcium particles,” says the article, ‘does not warrant one in assuming that such @ treatment as that suggested by Dr. Nolan would have any curative value in_tuberculosi: Dr. Nolan's announeement was made before the Westmoreland County Medical Soclety at Greensburg, Pea.

The fiftieth anniversary of the death of Alessandro Manzonie, the eminent ‘Ttallan romantic mnovelist, which has called forth widespread tributes to his memory not only throughout Italy, but wherever abroad his uplifting and educational influence has been felt, was appro- priately observed by the Circolo Ital- iano of Washington at its May meet- ing, held last night at the residence of its president, Vincenzo Di Giro- lamo, chancelior of the roval Italian embassy, 3746 Patterson street, Chevy Chase, D. C. The speaker of the evening was Augusto Rosso, counselor of the em- bassy, who took for his subject, ‘L'Opera Di Alessandro Manzoni,” and who briefly outlined the long and quiet life of the great writer, which he lfkened to & wide and deep river, in contradistinction to that of the poet Poscolo, comparable to a swift and, at times, violent torrent. Signor Rosso spoke in Italian and there were but few of his large audi- ence unfamiliar with that language. The Circolo -Italidno was arglnlxeg for the cultivation and diffusion of the Italien language, literature, art, history and other aspects of Italiam national life. Its membership in- & number of members of the sy staff and other Washington men and women who have knowledge of and sympathy with Itallan ideals, The speaker emphasized the fact that, while it might seem to a su. perficlal observer that Manzoni did not take a prominent part in the | pleted, we will e V‘Open Evdmngs and Our stock of used ears being de- fair price for your used car on a -DURANT | ER MOTOR CO. 1128 Connecticut Avenue Franklin 4307 LOVE OF SALT | GIVES TIP TO END SISAL TRUST AT CHURCH PARLEY ducted almost witheut competition, into whict an Investigation was or- dered by the Jast Congress. In the course of this investigation, however, Mr. Hoover explained, it oc- curred to mebody to go back and test out the grasshopper meny pref. erences with considerable care. He found that apparently the Insect gossn't cure 4 hoot what kind ot twine he eats, so long as It ¥is flavored with salt. Bisal has been ‘eft out of his diet merely because, grown far dnland, its fibers are pro. cuced by soaking plant leaves in or- dinary marsh water. Manila hemp, and most other kinds of fiber intend- ed for twine, come from tropical, low countries, where sea water is used for “retting.” Fxpe1iments are row in progress to test out the theory fully. If It is proved valld, hereafter grain binder twine can ba made from any of the numerous fibers, provided producers “ret” out the raw material in fresh instead of salt wate movements for Italian independence, nevertheless his works are pervaded | by a fervid patriotis spirtt which did | much to inspire the youth of his country. He illustrated this point with number of quotations from Manzoni’s poems, tragedies and other works touching upon Italy's history and na- tional conscience. Signor Rosso dwelt speclally on the masterpiece, “I Uromesi Sposi,” which Goethe de- seribed as “a perfect and unsurpas- sable novel” and which has been translated into practically all lan- guages. A Eroup of songs in both Italian and English were contributed by Miss Clelia Fioravantl, soprano, accompa- nfed by Miss Marcel Greenhalgh. Refreshments were served and & so- clal hour occupled the remainder of the evening. The next meeting is scheduled for June 13, at the res dence of Fernando Cunibertl, 3224 R street northwest.

CITY MANAGER IDEA URGED FOR GAPITAL Political Science Professor Advocates Right to Elect Council for D. C. Local government for Washington through the medium of & eity man- ager and council, as adopted by nu- merous other American cities, was udvocated by Dr. A. R. Hatton, pro- fessor of political sclence at the Western Reserve University of Cleve- land and consultant for the National Municipal League on matters per- taining to charters and state consti- tutions, at a forum luncheon under the auspices of the National Popular Government League, at the Ebbitt Hotel today. This form of government, he de- clared, was the simplest and most ef- ficlent. “Cit , “are in- sisting upon an organization as sim- ple as that of the modern busine: corporation, because they are becom- ing convinced that only through such an organization can they secure re- sults for themselves » Those of us living outside of Washington are sorry to be obliged to point to the fact that in the National Capital alone are American citizens denied the right to have some voice in thelr local affairs’” said the speake: “The men and women who come to Washington. temporarily or ;'munenlly. to tak part in the administration of the affairs of the nation, find themselve in_an atmosphers which seems t indicate distrust of the very prin- ciples of self-government which they 216 supposed to uphold, ' On the other hand. “he pointed out. Washington shouid be an example of self-govern- ment for other cities and the country to go by. In conclusion, he said, in part: “I understand that a movement is on foot to permit the citizens of Washington to elect a delegate to Congress. However, that will in no way be a substitute for the right of some fuller measure of direct par- ticipation in the loeal affairs of the FOR SALE WASHINGTON TZ, ?u -ames -rc‘sy:c flufi eces of sculpture ey're distinguished appear- ance.
