A4 CRIME COMMISSION REPORTS THIS FALL Second Formal Statément to Be Issued—Wickersham to Address U. S. Bar. * President Hoover's Law Enforcement Commission will issue & second formal report of its work this Fall. Arrange- GIRL RESERVES’ | | | i ments for formulation of the document ! will be completed at a meeting here early in October. Chairman Wickersham meanwhile is preparing a resume of his views on the | commission’s accomplishments and aims, which he will voice before the ! American Bar Association in Chicago ! August, 20. At this time he will make public a tentative budget for next year, showing how the commission proposes to use the $250,000 appropriation which & re- ! luctant Senate agreed to at #he end of | Congress' regular session. An unex- pended balance of about $80,000 also was made available Just how far beyond simple narra- tion of facts Chairman Wickersham will ! g0 in his Chicago utterance, he himself could not say today. Mindful of the storm that broke a year ago when a letter in which he mentioned prohibi- tion was read to a convention of Gov- ernors in Connecticut, he was giving long, hard thought to material and | phraseology. The chairman—only member of the commission still in the Capital—hopes to arrange a vacation abroad following | his Chicago speech. He plans to remain in Europe through September, returning just in time for the October gathering. Vacations already have taken several members of the group to Europe. But the white-haired chairman has been laboring through eight-hour days on end. over the Chicago speech and the budget. If he is as frank in Chi- cago as he was before the House Ap- propriations Committee, his words will reverberate loudly. - ‘Wickersham told the committee he expected to wind up the business of the commission by the end of this fiscal ear—next Summer—and that he con- {gmplnud a report recommending estab- lishment of a rmanent advisory group of semi-official capacity, to work with the Justice Department in the fleld of law enforcement. Scores of experts in prohibition, causes of crime, juvenile delinquency, court procedure and other subjects among whom the body has divided its task will begin sending in preliminary reports shortly: These -will ‘be before the commissioners at their meeting on October 8, for incorporation in the sec- ond formal report.

STATEMENT QUOTING HAM WAS INCORRECT Portion of Order of Utilities Com- mission on 10-Cent Fare ‘Wrongly Credited. In the issue of The Star of July 16 a statement to the effect that “the fair present value of the (street car) properties can be determined in no other way except by a new valuation which would take into consideration all of the elments of value, in accordance with the decisions of the courts” was erroneously attributed to President Wil- liam F. Ham of the Washington Rail- way & Electric Co. The words in quo- tation were, as a matter of fact, taken from the order of the Public Utilities Commission in deciding the 10-cent car fare case. ‘The portion of the petition of Peo- ple’s Counsel Richmond B. Keech deal- ing with the opinion of Mr. Ham, to which reference was had in the story, was as follows: “The necessity for a revaluation has been recognized by all conversant with the situation, either directly or in. directly. Mr. Ham, president of the ‘Washington Railway & Electric Co., at the time of hearings before this com- mission, frankly stated that a revalua- tion, while not necessary, in his opinion, would be both desirable and helpful | to the commission in the determina- | tion of the issue raised in that pro- | ceeding.” Parliament Rumored.

BALTIMORE, July 31.—Plans to assemble 1,000 physicians in the largest post-graduate cancer class ever held were announced today at Johns Hop- kins University. The course is designed to meet new conditions in cancer prevention caused by a marked increase in the numbers of persons seeking medical advice. It is announced by Dr. Joseph Colt Blood- good for September 15, 16 and 17. The entire ball room of a Baltimore hotel has been engaged as a class room be- cause there is no other available audi- torium of sufficient size. 10,000 Invitations Sent. The invitations are sent to 10,000 physicians, surgeons and radiologists. This is expected to bring an attendance of 1,000. They are issued by the Gar- van Experimental Laboratory and the Copley Surgical Pathological Laboratory of Johns Hopkins. Co-operation is an- nounced of the American College of Surgeons and of the Chemical Founda- tion. Ine. “This is the second attempt to pro- vide opportunities for post-graduate study,” says the invitation. “If this meeting is as successful as the meeting of surgical pathologists held last June it will be continued from year to year.” Diagnosis of cancer, the Invitation states, “is becoming more and more difficult because the individual, en- lightened by publicity through the dally press, is coming under observation of the medical profession earlier and ear- ller in the stage of the disease most difficult to recognize and one which offers the greatest possibility of a cure. Difficulty to Face. “We are confronted with a very diffi- cult problem in dealing with a malig- nant disease in its early stages and the differentiation from local conditions in the same spot that are not malignant and for which curative treatment is different from that of the malignant.” The invitation tells of artificial culti- vation of human cancer cells by Mr. and Mrs. George A. Gey of the Garvan Laboratory, stating: “At the present moment they have cultivated the human cancer cell to a larger number of generations than has ever been done before, and are of the opinion that very shortly they will be able to grow—outside the human body —the human cancer cell just as readily as the animal cancer cell.” LONDON, July 31 (#).—The Daily Mail today published a statement that Lord Byng, British World War figure, had gone to his country place to recup- erate from a slight attack of heart trouble, which followed the extraction of & tooth.
