POLISH VICTORY
PLEASES BERLIN
Union of German and Russ
Frontiers Prevented by
Red Defeat.
Washington HeraId-PubIic Ledger
Service, Special Cable DIspatchD

NIbiG
Berlin, Aug. 24-It has taken
Germany fully a week TO realize
that the BoIshevist armies have
been beaten and that not only have
the Poles frustrated a veritable
union Of the German and Russian
frontiers. but have saved Germany
from the Bolshevists.
The German press has been con
sPicuously silent the last few days
on events on the Polish front and
only by sheer inference has it come
to dawn on the German mind ths,
the Russian victories OF q fortnight
ago have changed into a hopeless
rout.
BewiIderment over the sudden
change in the Polish situation is
general. The mass Of the popuIa-
ton. however. betrays = feeling Of
relief Tor they have not wanted q
fresh war. All classes feel the
Polish Victory represents a fresh
lease Of life to imperialist move
ments.
There is an unmistakablc ten
dency to beIit,Ie the Polish success
in the eyes Of the public. judging
from versions OF a military com
munique published here. The eN-
pertS agree the victories are merely
episode.

Ofhcial reports received here show
that the Rockefeller Institute has
at last concluded the conquest of
yellow fever. 1t has succeeded in
isolating the germ by which this
dreaded disease has devastated en-
tire cities. 1t has devised a serum
that cures, and is able to make a
vaccine that prevents it. The facts
are contained in a review by George
Z. Vincent, president of the Rookie
feller Foundation. 1t says:
Until recently attempts to dis
cover the organism which incites
yellow fever had failed. How the
Stegomyia mosquito goes about her
work was fully understood, but just
what she injects into her victims
remained a mystery.
"Guayaquil was selected as the
most favorable center for research.
There cases of yellow fever were
always available. and experienced
physicians, skillful in. detecting
them, were at hand. The one man
peculiarly fitted to pursue the elu-
sive organism was the eminent bac-
teriologist OF the Rockefeller Insti-

With the announcement from the
White House last night that the res
ignation of Louis Brownlow as Com
missioner would be accepted, and a
recess appointment made before
September Is, interest in Washing
ton is centered about the naming
of successor to this office and the
other cOmmissionership, already va
cant. One of the two positions, it
is predicted, will be filled by q
woman.
Sufficient time has not elapsed

Brownlow's successor considera-

accepted and a successor will be
named before he leaves"

the District government will be LEFT
with only the engineer commits
sioner, Lieut. Col. Charles W. Kutz,
l. 5. \. Since the duties OF the
engineer commissioner deal chiefly
with buildings and grounds, and
matters requiring engineering skill.
the administrative end of the Dis
trict government rests on the
shoulders of the other two commits
sloners. At least one recess ap-
pointment must be made before
Commissioner Brownlow can leave
the city.
Many Possibilities.
Possible appointments are James

ton, John 3. Colpoys, John +. Cos
tello, and x-Commissioner o. P.
Newman.
There is strong possibility that
a woman may be named to fill one
Of the vacancies. Clara Sears Tay-
lor and Mary Wright johnson are
mentioned in this connection.
\ peculiar phase OF the situation
is that should the President also
name a successor to Commissioner
Gardiner. who resigned while Con-
gress was in session but was not
properly succeeded before the ad-
journment OF that body, such re-
cess appointec cannot draw pay
until confirmed.
John Van Schaick was appointed
by the President to succeed Gardi-
ner, but was rejected by the Sen
ate. There is no difficulty in the
way OF Brownlow's successor. how
ever, for the President may fill the
vacancy by recess appointment and
designate a salary, the appointment
to continue subject to senatorial
confirmation at the next session Of
Congress.

cepted the position Of city manager
Of the town Of Petersburg, Va, at
a salary reported to be $4,000 a

In his letter to President Will
son Mr.. Brownlow asked that his
resignation take effect september
Is, since 1t is the desire of the city
council of Petersburg that he take
up his new duties as soon as pos
sible. Mr.. Brownlow's term would
have expired January 81.
Resignation Is Regretted.
Regret at the resignation Of Mr..
Brownlow was voiced by all de-

OF patients who were in the early
stages of the disease Noguchi IN

showing symptoms which resembled
those of men suffering from yellow
fever. The blood of the first group
OF guinea pigs was used to inocu-

appeared.
Dogs and monkeys proved to be
susceptible in a similar way. At
tempts to transfer the infection from
one animal to another by means Of
mosquitoes were successful. Finally
Noguchi was able to cultivate from
the blood a minute, delicate, thread
like, spiral organism.
His discovery of the slim, spiral

pare a serum. This has been ad-
ministered in a number of cases with

CALLS ATTENTION
 ID HUNTING RULES

Don't get up at o'clock in the morn ing to go duck shooting. because 1t can't be done.
 This is one of the donts to hunters offered by Joe V. Prochaska. state game warden. who with the opening of the duck season today wishes to remind sportsmen that it IS against the law Go shoot until one-haif hour before sun rise. He also calls attention to the fact that the law will not permit the shooting of game more than one-half hour after sunset.
 According to Mir. Prochaska there has been a IS per cent increase in the number of hunting licenses issued this year over last season. when 10000 licenses were recorded. The game war den believes the 15 per cent increase does not represent the total increase for 1920. as there will be many more calls for licenses, he believes. now that the quail and duck season has arrived. The limit of quail is placed at twenty. while the duck limit is twenty-five.
