THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. JANUARY 27, 1929—PART T. U. . WOMEN MAY AID DM WORK | University Association Stud- || ies Plan to Set Aside Sum for Mile. Curie. The American Assoclation of Univer- sity Women, which is en; d in rais- ing a $1,000,060 fellowship fund to en- dow 30 research fellowships for women, | | is considering plans to set aside a con- siderable sum of money for the use of Mile. Curie to assist her in carrying on the radium research work begun by her famous parents. Some years ago, when Mme. Curle came to this country, the Association of University Women gruenmed her with | |}/ a gram of radium, which she urgently needed to continue her experiments. So great was the desire to help this famous French scientist that the wom- en oversubscribed the amount required to buy the available radium. Mile. Curie, who is following in her mother’s footsteps, accompanied her to the United States on that occasion while she was still a young girl. Now she is engaged in the work, and it is the thought of the association that the sur- plus which remained of the money sub- scribed tp buy the gift of radium for her mother ml ht be used to create a research fund for her. This is held out as one example of what the association is doing all the [[]! time to help woman students nad sci- entists. It also aims to foster inter- || national friendship by assisting women of domer countries to come here to| stu 51; Esme Howard, the British Ambas- sador, in a recent letter to Mrs. Morti- mer A. Sears, secretary of the fellow- || ship fund, expressed the hope that the umpllcn ‘would be successful. He wrote Whlle all today believe in higher education for men and wumen alike, there still may be some reactionaries who think that study abroad is liable to make students lose a part of their na- tional spirit or love of their own coun- try. gh we may admit that to || live long with people of other nations is apt to make us understand that our own has not a monopoly of all the ||} virtues, we may, I think, also agree that men and women become broader- minded, more ful citizens and in- deed better patriots when they have discovered that in all lands and among all races there is something to learn || and to admire. | “While, therefore, l feel strongly that the greater part, and perhaps geperally the e:fller part, of eduuuon should Il- i ways be at home, I feel sure that obtain some of the years of one's edu- cation, and of one’s unxver- sxty or later education, abroad is of the .greatest ble value, not only w the | | inahndun but also to the country to || which he belongs.” Ptions and pledees hate been con seri ons an ve n con- tributed to the Rmd Mrs. Samuel Her- rick i8 chairman of the fund committee | || for the Washington branch. ——— 12 SEWER CONTRACTS AWARDED BY DISTRICT | Total of $104,695 in Comstruction Work Let by the Com- missioners. ‘The District Commissioners yesterday awarded contracts for the construction of sewers to cost $104,695.29 as fol- | }| lows: To the Warren F.

Watson, chief engineer of | George the Fire Department, today issued a warning against a man wm is solicit~ ‘ng contributions for a “Veteran Fire- men’s Association.” The man, Mr. Watson sald, is victimizing business and professional men for contributions to an organization which is not known to exist. The pretext on which the con- tributions are solicited is that the “as- | {| sociation” is getting out a year book. Several inquiries have been made of || him, Mr. Watson said, and in all cases || he has advised I‘ltl'ub contributing. The man gives the name of Neal, or O'Neil, and address as the District Building. Needless to say there is no one at the District Building by that name or any other name authorized to | | receive the contributions. He is de- scribed as about six feet tall, weighing || about 180 pounds, smooth face, about | 30 years old, neatly dressed in a blue suit, light overcoat, and light felt hat. ’ | His practice is to solicit the contribu- ;;:ms and then send a messenger after em. Mr. Watson has put the matter in the | || hands of police, and Detective Ira Keck 15 investigating, It is said that there is a record of similar operations in Baltimore. DR.
