» id ¥ VISITING NURSES | ‘SET NEW REGORD Calls at Homes to Seo- Babies During May Total 368 The regular monthly mesting of the board of directers of the Visiting Nursp aseeciation” was held at the awmociation headquarters, 52 Center strest, yesterday morning at 10:15 o'clock. The president, Mrs. Androw J. Sloper, presided. Mrs, Noah Lucas, chairman of the finance committee, read the financial Teport af the association for May. Mrs. Harry C. Hine, chairman of the Child Welfare committee, re- . ported 17 well baby cenferences during' May, with an attendance of 336 babies. She stated too that the nurses had made special effort to in- creasd the character of their work ty making more visits to the homes of the dabies registered at confer- ences and had succesded in making 393 home visits. This number was the largest ever made by the aseo. ciation in one month, and was an increass of 301 per cent over the average number of home visits per month in 1938-1929. The committes recommended the paymeént of the attending physician at the cenferenc and the board voted to carry out this recommend: tion. Pre-School Examinations A report of the first pre-school examination held by the United Parent and Teacher association at ‘Washington school on June § show- ed a total of 66 children examined. Mest of the children were found to need vaccination and protection pgainst diphtheria. They were re- ferred back to their family doctors for correction of posture, diseased tonsils, carious teeth, faulty hearing and eyesight. Three visiting nurses were In-at- tendance at the first examinination and will continue at each clinic un- had an op- tion. Mrs. Hine further reported on the study which her committee is mak- ing of the child health work done using the appraisal form for city health work as presented by the American Public Health association. Mrs. Louis.Young reported two meetings of the nurses’ committes during May. During May., 308 new patients were admitted, 11 more than during April, and 118 less than in May last year whén the epidemic of grippe was at its height. This figure was slightly below the average numbeér of admissions per month last year. Visits Increase g In visits, however, May brought an increase ©f about 300 over last month and 120 over the same month cne year ago, the rise showing largs ly in an increased number of visl made to prenatal patiéents; to cases of communicable disease; in visits to patients at the time of confinement, and in home visits to well babies Tegistered at conference. Visits made last month to patients with ‘communicable diseases num- ‘bered 258 against 120 in May last year, before the service was gener- alized. Scarlet fever and diphtheria have been predominating diseases. e hundred and 30 visits have been made to prenatal patients against 88 last manth and 73 last year. This number of visits is a 50 per cent increase Over the average number of prenatal visits per month during 1928, Calls for delivery service tn the homes totalled 17 against 10 In April, and 11 during the same month last year. Considerable distress is felt that this service is not used to the full extent of its intended useful- ness. During May, for instance, out of 17 deliveries attended in the homes thers were 10 cases where the nurse was called too late t® serve the patient adequately before the baby was born. In aix instances the baby was born before the nurse arrived. Some consideration may be given to limiting this service to pa- tients who are registered with the visiting nurses eatly in pregnacy and to those late cases who doctors feél cannot be taken to the hospital —Mhis request for assistance being assumed to mean that hospitaliza- tion is impessible and nursing serv- ice may be the means of saving & life. Olive Elliot, general field supervi- sor, gave a demonstration of the use of the nurse’s bag in the home and a talk on the value and methods of supervision, which she is employing, Members of the board present were: Mrs. Andrew J. Sloper. Mrs. Stanley T. Goss, Mrs. Robert M. Par- sons, Mrs. James B. Thomson, Mrs. Noah Lucas, Mrs. Willlam 8. Bacon, Mrs, Valentine B. Chamberlain, Mrs. Rufus N. Hemenw Mrs. Hurry C.

ZIEGFELD CRITICAL OF MODERN REVUE May Abendoo “Polties”—De- Dounces Baauty Contosts New York, June 13 (UP)—Flo Ziegt original glorifier of the American llr!. believes “There's too much dirt and nakedness” in pres. ent day revues and that the tired business man hag grown a little more weary than ususl in gazing upon the nudity in the theater. For those reasons, Ziegfeld raid today, he intends to abandon pro- duction of revues and may also sus- pend his famous “Folll “Too Much Dirt” “There's too much dirt nakedness in revues mnowadays,” zaid Flo sadly, from the plush throne in his orchid bedecked of- fice, “and the public is about fed up on them. “The revues of late are nothing more than dramatized dirty stories, which, in pre-prohibition days, found their origin in barrooms: iIn theater parlance we call them ‘blackouts.” “That is why I consider it a dis- grace to be assoclated with a revue producer at the present time. Un. leas the Folllas can be distinguished from the current conception of the revue, I shall abandon them as | have the revu The next, and possibly the last Follies, played enly in New York and will be “put in the can.” It is the producer's intention of taking & movietone of his final Follles to al- low those cities throughout the country which have never had an opportunity to sce the actual show to see what it is like. Against Beauty Contests While he voiced the highest praise for the modern chorus girl, Ziegfeld deplored beauty contests and girls who enter them. “The chorus girl type has improv- ed,” he said. “They are better edu- cated, come from good families and have far greater ability than their predeccasors. They do things these and days. ‘The respectable American girl will not para n beauty contests. T do not believe in beauty contests because the contestants are not representative of the typical Ameri. can girl. Such contests do their greatest harm in misleading the girls that are chosén for their beauty. The poor girl is exploited and when she finally realises she is not so handsome, she experiences a |, terrible comedown which often causes her to lose all perspective in lite. Beauty contests are the great- est detriment to the youth and beauty in America.” ONE STORN AREA HALTS SEA FLIERS French Avintors Reluctant to Postpone Flight Again 01d Orchard, Maine, June 12.—(® —One storm area, plotted on an otherwise favorable weather map, halted a take-off today of the mono- planes Green Flash for home and the Yellow Bird for Paris. It was not until late last night, however, that Armeno Lotti, backer of the Yellow Bird, was reported to have been dissuaded by Dr. James H. Kimball, New York weather fore- caster, from starting the flight to- day, and there still remained an un- certainty here as to whether the French fllers might not take-off in the bellef that their ship could out- ride the storm. Lotti was expected to reach here today from New York. It was understood that after re- celving weather advices last night Lotti declared a start would be made this morning. Word of this reaching here led to the belief that the Green Fiash also would leave, but Lewis A. Yancey, navigator of the Amefican plane, said the storm area would prevent it. While he would not say that a Thursday take- off was probable, he indicated that. it the storm should move out of their projected course, today, prospects of a starting were good. MRS, WILLERRANDT STAYS ON Washington, June 12 (P—Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, assistant attorney general in charge of prohi- bition prosecutions, who resigned effective June 15, has decided to remain in the service until June 30. Attorney General Mitchell said there were a number of matters pending in Mrs. Willebrandt's divi- sion which hs wished her to clear up before she left the service. / DELAY BOARD MEETING Because of the absence of Chair- man M.

Here you see hangar at Toulon before its return BY MINOTT SAUNDERS Paris, June 12.—The future pere- grinations of the Graf Zeppelin, pride of German dirigible construction, remain undétermined, but in history this particular airship must remain a messenger of good-will among men. In serving as a medium to al- low the French and Germans bet- ter t6 understand each other, it has performed a mission beyond even the wildest dreams of Count Zep- pelin himself. Dr. Hugo Eckener cannot very well be called a second Lindbergh, nor can the faltering Graf Zeppelin be compared with the proud “Spirit but an association of better feeling has been in evidence because of their respective landings on French soil. Lindbergh's visit was opportune because it canie at a time When there was much misunderstanding between French and Americans, owing to the exchange crisis here. Eckener's visit, within a few days of the second anniversary of Lind- bergh's landing, came when the German reparations experts were resisting the terms offered by the Allies, and the most extreme acri- mony was given free play in the press of both France and Germany. Enmity Is Forgotten Unwillingly, it is true, Dr. Eck- ener brought his ship down near Toulon safely, thanks to the gal- lant aid of the French, and mirac- ulously, over night, the press of both countries, forgetting the ex- perts and even 'burying memor. fes of the war, spoke of each oth- er with courtesy and complete un- derstanding. “There are hazards which are| providential,” wrote Camille Ayv- mard, one of the toremost journal- 's of Paris, with regard tfo the landing of the Graf Zeppelin in France, and he might equally as well have been writing of Lind- bergh landing. “At an hour of great irritation between two peo- ples, when the sky was overcast by clouds, a cempelling incident happened in a critical hour which &hould have a profound repercus- sion between the two nation On both sides of the Rhine that incident is remembered. The lit- tle town of Cuers-Pierrefeu was | locking up .ts3 windows for the night when the town crier—they are still on the job in villages here — shouted through the strects. calling upon aill vigorous men of good will to rush to the aero- drome. The ‘great German Zep- pelin was coming down, in dis- tress, and needed helping hands. “Fraternity of Mankind” “Sixty lives were 1u peril,™ wrote M. Aymard. “Bixty agoniz- ed beings were coming to ground, to salvation or to death. The hunr called upon the fraternity of man- kind and in lesa than an hour the German airship was reposing peacefully in & French hangar,” Boldfers rushed out of bar- racks, civilian men, many of whom bore war wounds, left their sup per tables and gave a hand to the ropes that the Germans dropped. Dr. Eckener, a voice calm and business-like,” gave his or- ders in German and they wére im. mediately translated into French and obeyed. The Graf Zeppelin was conduct- ed to the very hangar constructed to house the Dixmunde, the German Zeppelin commandered by the French after the Armistice and which fell inte the Mediterranean in 1923 with all hands lost, but the past was all forgotten and only tneé friendliest feeling pre. vailed betwesn French and Ger- mans, After the Graf had been rcpair- ed 8o that a return flight dare b'e‘ attempted. Dr. Eckener invitel several French officials to accom- pany him—and they accepted. “It was the first time since the‘ armistice,” wrote Leon Bailby in UIntransigeant, “that between the two nations there arosc a. senti- ment pure and without reticence, & sentiment of sincere recognition on the part of the Germans with respect to something we had dene and at last giving credit to a peo- ple never understood until this in- cident.” Clement Lindhergh, nor is his Vautel, writing in Le| Journal, sees two results that should follow the landing of the Graf Zeppelin and the better un. | derstanding between the two peo- | ples. First, he believes the Chauvinists of both countries should be softened and begin a | ‘moral disarmament"’: “In the history of the reconcili- ation of two great pcoples so situ- ated as to understand and esteem each other, the name of Cuers | should be written in history be- fore that of Lecarno. It will evoke ! the memeory, not of diplomatic ' masoeuvres, but of an act of hu- | ant dirigible a second “Spirit of Sf. but Dr. Hugo Eckner, inset, and the Graf Zeppelin are good-wil the Graf Zeppelin the Graf being walked out of the o Germany man solidarity accomplished in tha most moving circumstances. “Secondly, the Germans, so legi- timately stirred by their geniua for organization, now render hom- age to the French method of do- ing things rapidly and -efficacious- ly, in the face of any circumstance and with whatever men availal “In short,” Mr. Vautel, best known or his satirical orti. cles, added: “The voyage of the Zeppelin cannot at all be reckoned as a failure, for from certain points of view it was the most suc- cessful ever made.’ Germans Were Grateful German gratitude and apprecia- tion for the generosity of French aid was quickly expressed official- ly and otherwise and remains un- diminished. “This spontaneous comprehen- sion between men of Germany and men of France should be consid- ered as a symbol,” said the Post of Berlin. “The eternal hostili- ties that poison the relations be- tween peoples and choke the voice of a sympathetic nature between beings ' with similar sorrows and troubles have their origin in re- straint. We know now how quick- ly this can be removed and how men muy better understand each other by the French response to the call for help from the Graf Zeppelin.” “The charged atmosphere has been relieved.” insisted M. Ay- mard. “The sky has cleared. Tr- ritation has given place to senti- ments of gratitude and human solidarity which are so sweet to the hearts of those who give them to those who receive.” BEAL IS FORMALLY CHARGED IN DEATH Murder Warrant Served on Tex- tile Strike Organizer Gastonia, & C. June 12, (A— ¥red Irwin Beal, southern organizer for the National Textile Workers Union today was formally charged with murder in connection with the death last Saturday of O. F. Ader- holt, lecal chief of police, who was wounded Friday night in a fight at a tent colony maintained here for sgrikers from the Loray cotton mills. Beal Kept In Hiding Beal, along with 70 other persons held in connection with the shoot- ing in which the chief, three other policemen and a union organizer were wounded was slated for a pre- liminary hearing in the Gastonia recorders court this morning. Beal had not heen brought here an hour before hearings were due to start and officers refused to disclose his whereabouts. Beal, arrested at Spartanburg, 8. C., originally was charged with com- plicity in the murder of Aderholt, tie charge being based on a speech he is alleged to have made to strik- ers shortly before the trouble start- ed. He was in charge of the camp which was maintained by the union | and the worker's international re liet. Warrant Is Changed The warrant against the southern organizer was changed at the 1e- quest of A. B. Hord, a detective on the, Gastonia police force, who has been acting as chief of police. The evidence on which the new warrant was based was not disclosed. Hcearing on a writ of habcas cor- pus issucd for 19 of the defendants by Judge H. H. Sink, and return- able today before Judge W. S.
