BURROUGHS GROUP lhode Island Avenue Citizens Back Members’ Action at { School Hearing. i The Rhode Island Avenue Citizens'| Association last night decided in regu- | far meeting that criticisms of its mem- bers by the Burroughs Citizens' Asso- eiation, contained ~in a _resolution adopted by the latter organization | early this month, for alleged ‘action be- fore House and Senate subcommittees eonsidering school appropriation items, were “impertinent and unworthy of serious _consideration,” and fgnor the charges. The Rhode Island avenue group, answering the resolution of the Bur- roughs Association, a copy of which was before last night's meeting, de- | clared that it had “full confidence in the ethics of its members in civie af-' fairs.” and did not deem investigation eoniemplating disciplinary action neces- sary. The matter had been looked into | by William S. Torbert, a member of the assoclation, who introduced the reso- | lution answering the Burroughs group. | The charge of the Burroughs or- ganization was that certain members of the Rhode Island Avenue Association appeared before the House subcommit- tee considerfng items for the Wood- ridge elementary school and for the roposed junior high school for Brook- iand-Woodridge and advocated elimina- tion of the elementary school appropri- ation in favor of the junior high school ftem voted to in Appeared as P.-T. A. Members. 1t was explained last night that al- $hough members of the Rhode Island Avenue Association had appeared before the subcommittee, they had done so as members of the Woodridg> Parent- Teacher Association and did not act in any capacity as reprosentative of the | Cilizens' Association. Members of the | group.who appeared belore the subeom- | mittee stated they recommended delay- | ng the junior high school project in | favor of the 8-room addition io the e mentary school if both could not be se- eured at the same time. Congress finally appropriated $110,000 ‘for the Woodridge addition and $200,000 for the junior high school project. A resolution indorsing the action of #he House and Senate subcommittees which recommended the appropriations for the Woodridge and Brookland Schools was adopted by the assceiation, The Rhode Island Association, one of | the largest in the city, in deciding to | ignore the charges of the rival asso- . clation stated in its resolution that the | Burroughs group “did not come into! the picture with clean hands, having | attempted to block outright an 'item for | the elementary school appropriation be- | fore the Senate subcommittee considering |, the school items.” The Senate hearing was held the day following the meet- ing of the Burroughs Association when Its resolution was adopted. A copy of the Rhode Island Association's res- olution was ordered sent to the Federa- #lon of Citizens’ Associations, Change in Smoke Law Favored. The Committees of Health and Sani- tation and of Law and Legislation of the Rhode Island body were instructed last night to investigate the possibility of bringing about a change in the Dis- | trict smoke nuisance law so as to ff- clude locomotives. ‘This action was taken following receipt of complaints | of smoke issuing from the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad round house near Fif- teenth street and Rhode Island avenue mortheast. The Parks Committee of. the group was asked to find out the reason given for the recent action of the National Capital Park and Planning Commission in recommending the change of - the mame of the Woodrldge Park to Lang- INSTITUTE SPEAKER Park Service Alde to Tllk at Me-| XKinley High School.

Br the Associated Press. DETROIT, February 26 0 be recorded on distant receiving sets, by an invention demonstrated uuc('e«-‘ fully here yesterday. Glen W. Watson, the inventor, said the possibilities. of his machine, which he has named the Watsongraph, were no more than touched upon in the demonstration. It also can be used. he said. to re- simultaneously in theaters without number words and actions of A theatrical performance presented in a properly equipped broadcast room. Among other uses suggested are transmission of messages to ships at sea or airplanes in the air; direction of police squads by code messages of | which a record may be kept, and trans- | missions of news stories from the type- writers of reporters to newsrooms or di- rectly into homes. The sending machine with which the inventor demonstrated the possibility of these developments might be a type- writer with a revolving disc attached. Watson typed out messages on the key- board. A receiving st in a distant room recorded them instantaneously. The receiving set has a similar disc and Watson explained the secret lies in synchronization of those dis disc contains letters of the as each key is depressed, he explained the impulse of that letter is sent into the air, to impinge on the same letter or key of the receiving set. Static cannot interfere, he said, nor can other “My Skm Nearly Drove Me Mad” “I had pimples and blackheads so bad- ily, and used to squeeze them so much that my face Jooked red and raw. On the advice of a nurse friend I got a jar of Rowles Mentho Sulphur and used it faithfully for 10 days. In 3 days’ time there was a big difference in my skin and today it is as soft and clear as my 10-year-old sister’s.” The sulpbur in Rowles Mentho Sul- phur clears the skin while the Menthol heals the sore, broken tissue. That's the twofold action you want for skin troubles. Try Rowles Mentho Sulphur not only for pimples and blackheads, but for dry, scaly skin, rash, and jtch- ing eczema, IT WORKS! All drug- gists sell it in jars ready to use. Be sure it's Rowles. Radio was | | given & new job, transmitting messages | machines create interference when the synchronization is perfect. By putting a number of dises in syn- | chronization, he said. complete stage | production in a central studio can be btained wherever the equipment is | set up. A group of radio and clectrical engl- neers witnessed the demonstration. SENATE CONFIRMS HITT AND PROCTOR TO BENCH The nomination of James M.
