CLAIM MONEY NEEDED

The Washington Railway and
Electric Company, admittedly dis
satisfied with its returns from the
Scent fare, is pinning its hopes
for relief on the December session
of Congress. This was conceded
by an official of the company last
night.
The company is looking for a
"readjustment," it was said. The
"readjustment." in all probability,
will consist of the compulsory mer-
ger, with a scent fare and sepa-
rate public utilities commission.
to be provided in a bill which Rep
resentative Carl Z. Mapes, chair
man of the District Committee of
the House, will introduce in De-
cember-
Effective TO End of Year.
The fare now charged by the
local street railway companies is
effective until December 81. All
future action of the company con-
nected with a change in fare will
depend on Congressional action be-
fore the end of the year.
The Washington Railway and
Electric Company claim they cannot
afford to furnish any cut rates such
as those suggested for school chill
dren. The company claims that its
earnings at present do mot give a
fair return on its last valuation.
Cut Rates Not Possible.
1t is because of the far from
satisfying aspect of its finances that
officials of the company said last
night that cut rate for school
children, as requested by J. C
Wright, 5l4 T street northwest, of
the Public Utilities Commission.
yesterday, was out of the question.
This condition likewise is ac-
cepted for the reason Of the COM
pany's recent plea to discontinue
service between Brookland ana
Connecticut avenue and S street
during the rush hours. The request
was refused by the Public Utilities
Commission yesterday. on the
ground that the service was needed.
The company stated, in its re-
quest. that the service was not
necessary, because transfers were

Fight to Rid u. S. of Malaria,
And Later World, is begun By

dies, and the northern countries of
South America lie within the ma
laria belt, which practically coin
cides with the tropical and semi
tropical regions of the earth.
MaInriaI Menace Obscured.
THE contrast between the strik-
ing symptoms and swift mortality
of yellow fever and the less obtru-
sive but more protracted effects of
malaria may easily conceal from
the uninformed the real menace of
the latter malady.
THE scientific basis for malaria
is firmly established. The infection
can be communicated only by the
Anopheles mosquito, which differs
from the Stegomyia or yellow fever
mosquito in being a rural or subur-
ban insect easily detected by its
habit of standing on its head when
at rest and unlike its yellow fever
colleagues it prefers water contain
ing grass or other plants in which
to breed.
Methods of Combating Disease.
The practical measures for fight
ing malaria are clearly indicated:
"Q) To eliminate Anopheles by pre-
venting their breeding; CD to screen
the houses against this mosquito; /;
go to sterilize by quinine the blood
of human malaria carriers.
"Anti-mosquito measures were re-
lied upon almost wholly in the four
Arkansas towns in which expert
ments were carried on. Continued
supervision in six Arkansas towns
affords convincing proof that it
costs a community approximately
fourfold greater sum to harbor
malaria than to Danish it. As a
consequence public funds for ma
laria control operations are now be-
ing appropriated faster than sani-
tarians can be found to do the
work"

VETERAN IS QUOTED
Commission Merchant in
Business 81 Years Takes
Pessimistic Viewpoint.

Increased prices for butter, eggs,
poultry, fruit, vegetables and other
handled on the Lou
isiana avenue market, will result
because of the creation of a park
way on that street, in the opinion
of Capt. John S. Miller, who has
been in the commission business in
that section for fifty-one years.
The move also will cause a de-
probation in value of property on
both sides of the street, he said,
and possibly cause the scattering
of the commission business to vari-
Gus sections of the city.
With twelve and a half feet cut
from the sidewalk on each side of
the street. there is no room to dis
play commodities for sale, he main
tanned, thus forcing it back into the
storerooms where, without air, it
will deteriorate in value.
Everything will be harder to
handle" he said. Under previous
conditions poultry and other COM
modities handled by the commission
men were unloaded on the sidewalk,
where they were quickly bought up
and carted away. making room for
additional shipments.
Retail men from the south side
of the street, instead of bringing
their purchases directly across from
Wholesale Row on the north side,
will now have to haul them down
one side of the street, around the
parkway and up the other side"
Nine-tenths of the poultry, butter
eggs, fruit, vegetables and virtually
everything required to feed the
city of Washington is handled in
Louisiana avenue. Capt. Miller de-
clared, and any obstruction or him
drance to the movement of this
merchandise will necessarily react
with higher prices.
More revenue is received by the
District of Columbia in the form
of taxes and license fees from the
one block on Louisiana avenue than
any other five blocks in the city,
Miller asserted.

Furthermore, the Democratic
party refused to give American
shipbuilders and shipowners a sub

huge subsidies given their shipping
by foreign countries. The Demo-

built abroad, rather than the en-
cOuragsment of American shipbuild-
