SURGEONS WILL TEST
Won RUCK'S CURE
Navy Department Medical Board Will
Go to Asheville to Investigate
Phthisis Vaccine.

DIR. Karl Won Rucks tuberculosis vaS-
cine will receive a complete and eX-
haustive test at the hands of the United
States Navy surgeons. Surgeon General
Stokes Friday conferred with DR.. Won
Ruck with regard to the reported dis
covery of a tuberculosis vaccine which
will render the person to whom il is
applied immune from incubation with
the germ of white Plague He has
determined TO investigate DIR. Won Ruck' S
discovery. and Monday will appoint a
board of navy medical officers to visit
Asheville. N. c., where the physician
has been making his experiments, and
report formally to the Navy Department
A similar vaccine Is now in use in
the navy by means of which the sailors
are rendered immune, or practically i'm
mune, from contracting typhoid. Ty-
phoid immunity thus established is sue
cessfully certain for a period of about
two years following incubation. DR..
Won Ruck says he has not yet estab-
lished the measure of immunity from
tuberculosis. He is particularly anxious
not to be understood as promising a
cure for tuberculosis. He believes that
he has discovered a preventive, not a
remedy.
DR.. Won Ruck has been staying at the
New Willard. 1t was stated at the
hotel last night that he had given up
his apartments there, leaving no for
warding address.

dent of the association; W. E. Kelley,

Association, and Edward Cantwell. na-
tional secretary of the organization. will
speak. Behind them stand about 100000
civil service employees anxious to push
through the pension programme during
the Wilson administration.
As the most spectacular instance of
the pressing need for Federal provision
for superannuated civil servants. the let
ter carriers have been selected as the
body upon which the convention will
found its fight for pensions. To further
the claims of the carriers. a national
retirement association will be formed, and
bills drafted looking toward suitable leg
isation for their relief.
1t Is stated that the delegates to the
coming convention are prepared TO re-
new their fight for pension recognition
with increased earnestness this year, and
that representations will be put be-
fore Congress. If possible, at the extra
ordinary session.

PARCEL POST RULING.
No Double Postage to BE Collected
for Negligence.

Patrons of the parcel post system are
not to be made to pay for the negligence
of postmasters In falling to see that
proper stamps were used on the parcels,
or that the proper amount OF postage
was affixed.
Postmas ster General BurIeson yesterday
apnuIled the order providing for the col
lection of a double rate of postage when
ordinary stamps instead of the distinctive
parcel post stamps were used. Here
after the postmaters must return to
senders incorrectly stamped parcels be-
fore the stamps are cancelled with notice
to use correct stamps. When the name
of the sender is unknown the parcel
will be shipped to its destination and the
proper postage collected. In all in
stances the penalty of double postage is
abolished
