BLACK URGES BETTER
POTOMAC TERMINALS

Says in Annual Report.

Suitable terminal facilities In the
Potomac river should be imme ediately
provided, Maj. Gen. w. NJ. Black, chief
OF army engineers, said in his annual
report submitted to Secretary of
War Baker today.
Both terminal and transfer facili-
ties in the Potomac are inadequate
and present a most dilapidated and
unsightly appearance, General Black
said. He recommended a stop be put
to the indiscriminate use OF the water
front for storage yards and jun k
heaps. and that the water front be
cleaned up.
The report comments on the fact
the Washington and Georgetown har-
bors, and that as a result commerce
has been facilitated and freight rates
materially lowered.
The only part of the original Ana
costa river project which remains to
be completed is the fill on the re-
claimed areas to be known as Ana
costa Park, General Black said.
ITO date the result of the work on
the project is as follows: $3.50, 81
cubic yards of material have been eN-
cavated and placed behind seawalls,
partially reclaiming 460 acres of land.
The sawall 1892 # long, built in

HOW TRANSMISSION
/ v WAS CARRIED OUT
Doctor Tells of Method Employ.
ed to Save Life Of Girl Shot
Jo BY Jealous Lover.
by DIR. O. h. HUNTER,

DR.. Reeves and / decided that a
blood TRANSMISSION was the only
method by which we could hope to
save the lie of Mrs. Robinson, who
was in a very weak condition, both
from the loss Of blood and from the
operation performed to open her
chest and sew up the punctured lung
When Gordon volunteered his blood
for TRANSMISSION in the hope of saving
her life, we Immediately applied the
"agglutination test" to determine
whether his blood matched hers in
quality. This test was made as fol
lows:
A sample Of blood was taken from
Gordon, the donor, and from Mrs
Robinson, the recipient. These
samples were taken separately, and ir
each case the serum content was di.
vided from the corpuscles by centri.
fugal action. This was done in a ma.
chine known as a centrifuge, made es-
pecially for this purpose.
Then drops of his serum and Of hel
corpuscles were mixed on a glass plate
and placed under the microscope. III
the blood of each person matches with
the other. there will be no aggiutina.
tion. But If their blood does no,
match, the corpuscles will be seen tc
bunch together under the microscope
In such a case the TRANSMISSION car
not be made as the blood corpsules OIL
cells would break down." probably
resulting fatally.
A similar test was made with
samples Of her serum and of his cor
puscles. These tests proved that theil
blood matched perfectly.
With--a pump especially made fol
the purpose, 500 cubic centimeters, oI
about one pint, of blood was taken
from Gordon's arm. This pump con
sists OF. tank and pump connected
by tube to a hollow needle.
The needle was inserted in Gordon's
arm, and by creating a vacuum in
the tank, the blood was drawn. The
blood was injected in Mrs Robinson
arm By inserting the needle and ap-
plying a gentle pressure in the tank
The operation was performed with
entire success, and the patient i'm
mediately showed signs OF gaining
strength. OF course, she is still very
weak but I do not think that anoth'
er TRANSMISSION will be necessary.

UNITY URGED IN
ALL CIVIC NEEDS

ism, Says W. Mex. Clayton. I!

That the citizens associations of the
local boosting societies" and that
they must assume city-wide interestA
was the message brought by william
NICK. Clayton to members Of the
Brightwood Citizens Associations
consolidated, meeting last night In
open session In the Emory church
school.
I'VE must grow up out of the
swaddling bands or localism," de-
clared Mr.. Clayton. I'VE must build
our citizens associations on grounds
other than mere selfish interests. The
citizens associations should be live
American forums. open to thoughts Of
government, reform and progress.
Only as they assume such an attitude
will they measure up to what they
should be in order to serve the people
Of this community
Mr.. Clayton said the residents of
Washington were a picked people
from the various States, who are more
able to perform their part in the city
government than the residents of
other cities. Citizens associations, he
said, have educated men to such an
extent that they are ably fitted to
take their places in the common coun-
ell OF the District, if the District
had common council.

Brightwood Citizens Association.
characterized Mr.. Clayton as the
first and last president Of the Bright
