BELT LINE Project
UNDER NEW ATTACK
Two More Protests, From
Montgomery and Arlington
Counties, Received.

The Public Service Commission in
Baltimore has received two additional
protests against the proposed Wash
ington and Loughborough belt line
railway around the District of Co
lumbia.
One of these was from H. G. Rob
ertson and IL other property owners
of Montgomery County along the
River road near Loughborough.
The second one was from the presi-
dent of the Highland Park Citizens
Association of Arlington County, VIII
liam w. Diehl The communication
reads as follows:
"A company known as the Wash
ington and Loughborough Railway
capitaliZat ton unknown and unstated,
proposes to build a belt line railroad
for transfer of freight through the
residential section of Arlington
County. the. front yard of the Nations
Capital; and the parts OF Arlington
County through which these pro-
moters threaten to run this freight
belt line are building up into one
exclusively residential section such as
the character of the region justiffes
(the residents OF this county were at
tracted to this region by it's many de-
sirable features as place for homes):
this attractiveness would be destroyed
by the building of or probability of
building such a freight line; 1T is to
be expected and feared that such
project would change the whole tenor
of the present growth In Arlington
County, resulting in a settlement by
an alien and undesirable population.
whose totally divergent ideals and
customs would affect our schools and
drive away the type OF people now
resident here
And in view of the failure OF ex.
tensive industrial development at
Alexand and other points near
Washington. where both railway and
water transport are available, 1t is
extremely doubtful whether indus
trial establishments of the type re-
quiring a railroad can be a success in
this part OF Arlington County.
Resolved, that the Highland Park
Citizens Association opposes and asks
the aid of all civic organizations
throughout Arlington County in
opposing the building or promotion of
any such project which, like an iron
band, would surround the National
Capital and present a barrier to any
further extension OF the beautiful
metropolitan district OF Washing
ton"

PL0WED PATHS GUIDE
AIRMEN in DESERT LAND
Cairo-to-Karachi Section of British

Luxurious Planes.

By Gable to The Star and New York World
LONDON, September 12.--Plowed
paths along the ancient caravan
routes of the desert are to guide the
airmen operating the Cairo-to-karachi
section of the British air route from
London to India.
The regular passenger carrying and
mail rrying airplane service organ
lied by the British air ministry, which
is to be opened shortly, is being test

different stages. and Air Vice Mar
shall Sir Soften Brancker, who has
already traversed the entire route
by air, is personally experimenting
the arrangements for the 400-mila
desert route between Cairo and
karachi.
For the inauguration OF the service
large royal air force bombing planes
will be used, and. although mails will
be carried over the whole route, for
n time only part OF it will be avail
able for passenger transport This is
designed to enable civilian aviators 10
obtain complete experience of the

Later luxurious passenger planes
Will be utilized-three-eng craft,
some Of them carrying 1000-horse-
power Napier-Cub in the nose and a
500 horsepower motor on each side Of
the cabin. The passengers Will be
accommodated in comfortably uphol-
stored deep chairs, and the cabin will
be lighted throughout by electricity.
There viii also be an electric cooking
apparatus. a feature that will inevita-
bly, be included in all future long dis

Correspondence OF the Associated Press.
OXFORD, August 20.-Under the
will of the late Lord CurZon a large
and valuable collection of Napoleonic
relics, largely relating to the life and
death Of the emperor at st. Helena,
and a collection of empire furniture
have been left to the University OF
Oxford on condition that these articles
shall be housed in the Bodleian Ii
brary or museum.
Whether or not the university will
accept the gift remains TO be seen.
For some years 1t has regularly de-
clined the offer of an enormous collec-
ton of postage stamps. the library re-
fusing to take the stamps because
they are not books and the art Inu-
scum refusing them because they are
not works of art. These same obiec-
tions will probably be raised against
the acceptance of Napoleonic relics

HOW BAD TEETH CAUSE
CONSUMPTION

CONSUMPTION is not hereditary,
- but it is now generally agreed
among tuberculosis experts that, no
matter when the disease develops, in
lection generally takes place in child
hood.
This infection, like all other germ
infections, can only happen if there is
break somewhere in the skin or the
lining of the body cavities. The mem
brane which lines our nose, mouth,
throat, bronchial tubes and lung spaces
is a continuation of the skin, and, like
1t, is not affected by germs, except as
they can find an opening somewhere to
allow them to enter the substance of
the body and begin to grow. Any
break or tear ia this membrane is just
like an open gate in city wall. 1t is
gap through which the enemy can
enter.
One of the earliest and most common
signs of tubercular infection in children
is swelling of the lymph glands of
the neck. The lymph glands of the
body, which lie just under the skin, are
the filters or drains which stop and
hold any infectious matter which may
enter the body and so prevent it from
reaching the Represented vital or
gans. They are the second line of de-
Tense, like the street barricades which
the defenders of city would throw up
TO stop the enemy, after the gates
had broken down.
Now it has long been know that in,
many, if not all cases of tubercular
glands in the neck, the teeth would be
found to be decayed. Even If the de-
cayed teeth are pulled, infection may
enter through the holes left in the
gums. If decay has gone far enough so
as to kill the pulp in the tooth, the soft
ening opens up the canals in the roots
of the teeth and root assesses may re-
suit. The tuberculosis germs may then
pass from the root assesses into the
fine lymph vessels. The first lymph
gland they come to catches and holds
them. If they are few in number, they
may be killed in the gland without do
ing any harm. But If they are many,
they make the gland work so hard that
the glands become swollen and tender
and finally break down and form little
assesses.
Bad teeth or openings in the gums
caused by bad teeth are ideal breed
ing places for the tuberculosis germs,
as the warmth and moisture in the
mouth gives them just the conditions
they need for growth.
Scum teeth and clean mouths are
a protection against disease. Children
especially should be taught to keep
their mouths clean. Bad teeth should
be removed or filled at once. not only
TO save the other teeth but also to
keep out any. disease germs that may
cause trouble in after life.

BY r. M. RUSSELL
When radio receiver is to be used
in the home where it is operated by
all members of the family, both young
and old, 1t should possess certain fea-
lures such as simplicity in operation,
perfectly clear and howlless reception,
good receiving range, loud-speaklng
output, and logged dial that eliml-
mates the guess-work of tuning ana
makes it possible for one who never
saw or heard the set before to get any
station desired with it, by referring to
the dial reading.
The little two-tube set illustrated
will do all the above things in an
efficient manner. This is due to the
circuit used which is simple to build
and simple to operate, but incorpor-
ates several unique features that give
it qualities seldom found in even a
two-control outfit. 1t has automatic
or spontaneous regeneration and an
aperiodic primary. The regeneration
increases volume and receiving range
and the aperiodic primary makes the
set selective and allows logging of the
single tuning control.
Never under any circumstances will
the set howl If the parts are arranged
correctly and the values are as speci-
fed. The secret of this is in the
method of obtaining regeneration and
the fixed condenser across the audio-
frequency transformer.
The readings of the variable conden-
ser dial, which Is the only control. are
permanent. If station is once re-
ceived at say 20 degrees it will al
ways be received again at that point.
This applies to distant as well as local
stations.
The above results are obtained by
virtue of a special tuning unit in the
form of coupler. 1t consists of two
spiderweb coils, one of five turns and
one of As turns. The five-turn coil is
the aperiodic primary and the other is
the combined plate and secondary coil.
1t is not difficult to build the unit.
Spiderweb coils Of the proper size
can be purchased at radio store or
they can be home wound on a card
board or wood frame This should
have IL, 13 or Is srokes. The wind
ing method Is two over and two un-
der. in other words the wire Is first
wound under two spOkes and then
over two spokes, etc. About one
half pound of No. % double silk or
cotton-covered wire is necessary for
this. Do not use enamel.
To Construct.
Mount the coils when finished as
shown in the illustration. The cou-
.pling between them may vary any
where from one-QCarter to one-half
inch according to the selectivity de-
sired. Lay out the sockets, trans

as shown and wire with the direct
connection method, that is, make all
connections direct from terminal to
terminal in the shortest possible man.
ner. This may not look pretty" but
1t will reduce the resistance and inter-
circuit interference, and make the set
more efficient. After all it's results
we want, not beauty.
The parts necessary to construct the
set aside from the special coupler are
as follows:
One .0005 variable condenser.
One geared vernier dial for con-
denser.
One low ratio audio frequency trans

CONTROLLING HAY
FEVER

nAY fever is disease which Is not
= = dangerous to life but which often
makes the victim wish it was.
1t is called hay fever, because the
most common form comes in the early
fall, during the haying season. Jusr
how the idea originated that it had any
connection with hay is hard to see.
Probably because speople working in
the hay fields were found to be espe-
cially subject to it. This is not due
to the hay but to the fact that many
weeds, growing, among the hay, be-
come ripe and throw off their pollen
about haying time. These weeds, cut
down with the hay and dried, are
raked up and handled in haying, so that
the air in which the haymaker works
is full of dried pollen. The small,
sharp-pointed seeds, drawn into the
nose in breathing, are extremely irri-
tating and cause the well-known symp-
toms of constant sneezing, congestion
and obstruction of the nose, then
watery irritating discharge.
1t was long ago noticed that these
attacks happened at other times than
the early fall. The so-called 'rose
colds" occur in May and June. Similar
attacks may occur almost any time
in the year. So it is not only the
pollen of weeds at haying time which
may cause this condition. but any ir-
ritating substance in the air.
have seen typical hay fever attacks
in the middle of the winter. due to
breathing street sweepings blown
about by the stray winds of January
or February. have also seen attacks
brought on by breathing formalin or
fformaldehyde-
Hay fever may be due to the pollen
laden air from the hay fields, but 1t
may also be due to many other causes.
The principal cause is the individual.
A dozen people will breathe the same
air under the same conditions, only
one. or two will show any discomfort.
Those who do will be found to have
two peculiarities some obstruction in
their nose and nasal mucous men,
brane that is unusually sensitive. So
long as there is no irritating sub
stance in the air, they are all right.
But If the air Is filed with pollen of
rag weed, golden rod, wild oats, Ber-
muda grass, sage brush or any of the
many Irritating seeds, Immediately the
sensitive victims begin to sneeze.
We have learned much about this
now know that it is caused by many
kinds of dust, instead of only by hay
seed as we formerly believed.
