The cases were brought by the Ohio Lake Cargo Cosl Rate Comnittee apd others against carriers from Pennsyl- vania, Maryland, Obio, Virginia,- West Vi ia, Kentucky and coal flelds to Lake Erie ports, for trans- shipment by vessel in an effort to se- cure & greater rate differential be- tween the Nofthern and the Southern flelds. The examiner found. the rates were not unduly preferred to any other coal felds and recommended that the commission refuse to take action. The lake cargo cases have been be- fore the commission from time to time since 1012, and in two other instances the rates have been upheld. There is a dfference of 35 cents & ton between rates from Ohlo and Penn- sylvania fields to certain Lake Erie ports and those from fields in the South. The Ohio and Pennsylvania operators attacked this difference as too small and although not fixing any definite figure indicated they be- lieved 45 cents a proper .

Durrett, chief of the drug-control | activities of ‘the Agriculture Depart- ment, told a public meeting held un- der the auspices of the Medical, Society of thé District of Columbia last night. The ordinary - procedure, he revealéd, is to spend vast sums in adyertising some worthless proprietary medicine in the hope it will be so well established that the business cap be sold at a good profit before Government agents are able to act. In making a case, he said, it 18 mecessary for the Gcvernment to preve not only that the-claims made for a preparation are not true, but that the advertiser Intentiopally Is misrepresenting g: product. On the whole, Dr. Durrett said, claims have been more subdued in recent years. “cure-alls” largely have dis- .from the market, due to the lture’ Department’s activities, or the labels have been changed so that they aj ximate the truth. .In some cases, he said, the wording is quite clever, 50 that it is hard ‘to make out an actual ease of misrepresentation, al- though the product has no real value.

Surveys have shown that families whose total income is under $2,000 spend an average of $71 a year for. doctors, nurses, medicines and hospital care. This increases to an average of $311 annuyally for .families with an income of more than $5,000. The difference, it was pointed out, is not because poor families have less sick- ness than those in comfortable circum- stances, but because they cannot afford to take such good care of themselves. A great deal of money, Dr. Rorer sald, 1s spent on self medication and on prac- titioners outside the medical profession. The surveys to date, he added, tend to show the spending habits of the Amer- ican people are not calculated to put the average family in a position to meet sickness. It is an expense, he sald, which eannot be predieted, with the re- sult that it is seldom taken into account in figuring the year's income Some forms of sickness insurance have been suggested, he sald. Some rural communities,” Dr. Rorem said, are meeting the problem of medi- ca] care by employing a public physi- cian. Fees for treament go back into the public treasury, and the physician is paid a fixed sum each year.

The Army will learn whether its staff and its pilots are sufficiently trained to conduct maneuv- ers on a scale comparable to that which would be necessary in time of war.

It will be of more value to spend a large part of this allowance in these maneuvers, than in individual flights in various parts of the country.” The Senator sald that military air maneuvers are dangerous, just as aevial combat is in wartime, but he said it be .ascertained whether . pilots are tralned to meet conditions they would face in the event of an emer- gency. | WASHINGTON MAN HELD | Dewey Rinker Charged With Reck- | less Driving in Alexandria. | By & Btaft Correspondent of The Star.

'GARDEN CLUB PLEAS HEEDED BY. OIL FIRM {Hope Bright for Elimination of Advertising on Road- ways. The Gulf Refining Co. of Pitts- burgh, Pa., one of the leading oil end gasoline concerns of the country, has decided to discontinue advertising on billboards on highways leading into ‘Washington. This policy was adopted according to & communication just re- ceived from the company addressed to The Star, in compliance with the re- quest of the committee of the National FRIDAY, MAY 8, 193L Herring Fill Potomac in Spring Run SCORES SNAG FISH BELOW LITTLE FALLS. | Capital of the Garden Club of America and similar requests of Garden Club members in other parts of the country. “In fact,” the communication stated, . “we are discontinuing billboard adver- | tising throughout the country except in cities, towns and villages.” The decision of the Gulf company to remove its billboards from the main highway approaches to the National Capital was received with enthusiasm | today by leaders in the civic movement | to improve the appearances of these ap- proaches before the opening of the 1932 Washington Bicentennial celebration. The company is one of 12 leading oil and gasoline concerns using the high- ways within a 20-mile radius of Wash- | ton for advertising their products | to motorists. Civic Body Is Pleased. Officials of the American Civic Asso- | ciation, which inaugurated the .anti- billboard elmr.l'n in Washington, were particularly pleased with the action taken by the Gulf company. Miss Harlean James, executive . secretary, sald she belleved that other oil com- panies gradually would conform to a policy of preserving the landscape from obstruction by outdoor advertising. According to the survey conducted recently by Mrs. W. L. Lawton for the American Civic Association, the Gulf Refining Co. at that time advertised in the Washington area on 35 painted bulletins, 28 poster pamels and on 14 “winkers.” These are to be found on the Marlboro, Brandywine and- Fred- erick road, the Baltimore pike, Lee and Defense highways, the Columbia turn- pike and Route No. 1, south of Wash- ington, in Virginia. While the Gulf company does not propose o cancel any of its outdoor | contracts, Willlam B. Akin, advertis- ing manager of the company, explained in a telephone conversation, it intends to ‘reallocate all its board on the main highways to sites in commercial and :tst':er zones that would be unobjection- e, The same policy, Mr. Akin stated, is being put into effect generally through- out the country. Wherever possible, the com] intends to confine its out- door advertising to the commercial | zones in or just outside city areas. | Clubs Asked Removal. “What prompted us to adopt this poucz with respect to the Washington area,” Mr. Atkin said, “was the many Tequests received from ladies of garden clubs who are interested in the move- ment to ‘clean up’ roadside éonditions in connection with the Bicentennial next year. We will gradually transfer the locations of all our roadside boards.” | Roland M. Brennan, chief clerk of the District Engineer Department and a member also of the Commissioners’ | Sign Committee appointed to draw up | regulations governing outdoor advertis- ing within the District, was keenly in- terested in the decision of the Gulf Co. to co-operate in this area. e In my opinion.” Mr. Brennan said. ‘the Gulf Co. has set an excellent example in the construction of attrac- tive filling stations and in refraining from an overuse of roadside adver- tising.” f Other Companies Follow.

B. Children, Rejected for Healthy Pupils. Anpouncing its determination of re- fusing to accept the Toner School again for white puplls after it has been occupied more than four years by tubercular colored children, ‘the |’ Grant School Parent-Teacher Associa- tion has transmitted resolutions to with them. Such a policy, Mr. Bren- nan belleves, should be encouraged. More than a score of Washington hotel firms and other businesses have agreed to discontinue billboard adver- tising before the opening of the 1932 Bicentennial celebration. A few of the smaller oll companies also have indi- cated their intention to do so. The ! Gulf company, however, is believed to be the first of the large companies to adopt the policy on such a wide scale. i Reports that the Standard Ofl Co. of California is returning to eoutdoor advertising were denied today by offi- cials of the American Civic Association, who have investigated conditions in that State. Several years ago the Cali- fornia company removed about 2,500 billboards from State and county roads.

Bowles was treated at Emergency Hospital for fractures of reveral rits, cuts and bruises of the head and fa Severe hurts were also suffered President Hoover, soliciting his interest in its efforts to secure additions to the Grant School. According to Mrs. Belle Parker, pres- ident of the association, the Grant School, an old structure, has an en- rollment of 500 children, necessitating the establishment of four part-time classes. The population of the Po- tomac Park communities lying south of Pennsylvania avenue and west of the White House, she contends, is in- creasing by virtue of the large number of modern apartment bulldings which have replaced dilapidated residences in the last six years. Fear for Children. ‘The Toner School, formerly a regu- lation elementary school for white children, was turned over to the col- ored school divisions four years ago to house the tubercular classes. At the time residents of the community protested vigorously and the few pupils formerly attending that building were sent to Grant. “When Supt. Ballou told me our needs would be met when the Toner School was turned back to healthy children,” Mrs. Parker declared today, “I told him pointedly we would posi- tively not accept it. The children there now are all running temperatures and not a mother in our association would let her child go to that building even if it is fumigated.” Goes to White House.
