Dr. Smithies’ following the award and preceding the entertainment program followed the customary practice of de- livering a paper for the society and its guests. The paper, of great interest to | the medical profession, was on “In- | testinal Protozoiasis.” In addition to the honorary member- ship awarded Dr. Smithies, the society honored Dr. William G. Young, one of its own members with a certificate of fellowship in the organization. The presentations were mace by Dr. Noble T. Barnes in the presence of more than 350 Washington doctors and many guests from out of town prominent in the medical world.

LEADERS NANED N JEWIH DRIVE Abram Simon, Behrend Will Aid Work. Appointment of Dr. Abram Simon, Charles Goidsmith and Rudolph B. Behrend as vice chairmen of the United Palestine Appeal campaign committee was announced yesterday by Chairman Isidore Hershfield. Their selection as representatives of the so-called Marshall element in the Jewish Agency makes the drive organi- zation practically complete. The cam- paign will get under way Saturday eve- ning with a mass meeting at the Jew. ish Community Center and will last for three days. Dr. Simon was formerly identified with that section of Jews in Washing- ton which was opposed or indifferent io the Jewish Homeland movement and the winning of this element over to the cause through the establishment of the Jewish Agency is a source of satisfac- tion to Zionist leaders. Chairman Hershfield and co-Chair- man Levi H. David are gratified at the progress made in getting ready for this year's $35,000 campaign, which prob- ably will be the most intensive Zionist Louis E.

This attention has operated to provide the traveler with expeditious handling of baggage, averting delay at the dock. ‘The courtesy of the port, indicated by the “I.

A man returning from London recently | told me that of 1,200 passengers on the liner more than 1,000 had letters from members of Congress entitling them to the courtesy of the port. Where there are so many all in a lump the presump- tion is that examination of WAS more than cursory, it being impossible to give all of them immediate attention that was immediate. “But in other instances it doesn't work out so well. The agitation arising out of the Panama incident may cause | @ swing in the other direction. In future the traveler entitled to expeditious han- dling of baggage will get it, but he may get also a more careful scrutiny than he has had. If attention is centered on the men who make the examination you can wager that a suitcase containing as litte as a half pint of wine, will be held up, however cleverly it may be protected from view.” ‘Will Not Deny Privilege. The Treasury Department has as- sumed that in requesting special at- tention for their friends, members of Congress have been mindful of the | possibilities opened by their generosity. As a matter of fact, Congressmen have not been especially discriminating, as evidenced by the great number of re- quests. The laxity growing out of the | practice militates against any check on | abuses and the only way the Treasury Department might affect the situation would be to deny the exercise of the | privilege. This, said a department offi- clal, will not be done. ““There is no likelihood that the mat- ter will be mentioned to members of Congress,” he satd. “It would be dis- courteous and probably would not have a helpful effect.
