PUBLIC HEALTH.

LIFE STRESSED

CINCINNATI Ohio Oct. 81 Up
The industrial physician of The future
is destined to become one of the
most important factors III public
health and preventive medicine, DR.
John A. Turner told the American
Public Health association here today
The industrial physician, he said,
is in position to reach more people
directly to whom he can teach tho
why and wherefore of preserving
health, the prevention of sickness and
accidents and the prompt treatment
of sickness and injuries.
Dr. Turner, who is the industrial
physician for large Cincinnati man-
ufacturing company, told of the
methods employed by his company,
Of actual physical examinations for
employees, free medical and dental
treatment, of the placing Of men
and women in positions pest suited
to their physical condition, inspection
OF sanitary conditions in the shops
and protection against accident haz-
ards and poisonous gases found in
many industrial plants
The trend toward decentralization
in organized effort to combat social
diseases was commended by Thomas
Paron. assistant surgeon general OF
the United States public health
service.
Since the government in late years
has relinqulshed much OF its control
over these conditions, he said, the
states and communities have come
to the fore and taken upon them%
selves the new responsibility. The
public health service at Washington,
however, he said, is anxious to know
how it may best be of service to
the states and cities and is pushing
research in four nationally known
centers.

FLIGHT STORY
TOLD in LISBON
BY RUTH ELDER

LISBON, Portugal, Oct. q P--At
Ponta Delgada, Azores, Ruth Elder,
chatting with a group of friends ano
new acquaintances, among them a
representative of a Lisbon newspaper,
gave g. recital of her flight with her
co-pilot, Haldeman, which Will be
published here tomorrow.
Miss Elder said that her originally
vague idea of crossing the Atlantic
took full form only through the per-
suasions of her friends that she
should make such flight, and they
offered her a plane for this purpose.
This decided her Owing, however
to the difficulties prior to the Starr
of the plane, both aviators were
greatly exhausted when the machine
finally took the air. During the
entire flight, she said, because OF the
weight of the gasoline, the plane
showed a constant tendency to nose
downward, which obliged the aviators
to take turns in making their way
as deftly as possible toward the tail
in order to maintain the proper m
cline and position.
Alter so hours Of the flight, Miss
Elder was exhausted and slept heavily
for two hours, when Ealdenlan awak-
ened her. He asked her, she said,
to thump him on the back hard
to prevent him from failing asleep.
Then they discovered a leak in
the oil. feed tube, and oil spread all
over the machinery. 1t became nee
essagy 10 diminish the speed from
100 miles to 70 miles. eventually they
resolved to descend on the stormy
sea, and seized the opportunity when
the Dutch steamed Barendrecht was
in sight.
When they had been taken aboard
the steamer, the explosions and ourn~
ing of the plane soon followed, and
Miss Elder confessed to having wept
when she saw her beloved plane
swallowed by the tenpestuous seas.
Right then and there she bound her
self solemnly to make a new attempt
to cross the Atlantic ii no other
woman did SO before her.

A few minutes later when the
witness insisted that Petllra him
self was no anti-Semitic, Schwartz
bard leaped to his fete, failing the
air with his right arm and shout
ing "You - You - --!"
For the first time during the trial
he was virtually incoherent and
unable to find words His body
quivered in spasmodic jerks. Recov-
ering speech he cried; do you re-
member the terrible days of 1910 and
1911 at Kiev? Do you remember
the accusations that Jews were
using Christian blood for eastern
ceremonies? You hate me because L
am Jew!"
Shulguin, who had turned his back
to the speaker, whipped around and
screamed in a high falsetto: "I do,
because you are a bolsheVik."

each others throats

bard retorted dropping back into

pitch

questioning by Torres, admitted his
inability to furnish definite proof
that Schwartzbaro was bolshev-

say the republican party must now

PRESSING NEED OF INDUSTRIAL
DEVELOPMENT FOR CITY CITED

Federal activities brought back some
semblance of prosperity. The swing
back toward George Washington S
ideal of a self-supporting city seems
to have commenced about this time,
and we come upon definite efforts to
expand the business life of the Ma
tfonal Capital. The first manifesto
tions of this movement took the form
of business undertakings usually not
classed as industries, such as news
papers, banks, retail stores, markets.
theaters, street railways and public
utilities Of various types and kinds.
In addition, light manufacturing
establishments commenced to multiply
BY 1899 there were 491 concerns of
this type, employing over 5000 wage
earners and producing products valued
in excess of SIC 100000.
From 1899 on the amount of the
amount of the wages paid and the
value of products of manufacture estab-
lishments steadily increased. Wages
rose from over So 900, 900 to over $15,-
900 900 and the value of manufactured
products from over 10000. 900 to over
$50, 900 900, as previously stated.
A study of the business develop
ment of the National Capital shows
that the present tendency is in the
direction of the conception held by
Washington, Jefferson, Madison and
others, which was SO ably expounded
for the country at large by Alexander
Hamilton in his famous Report on
Manufacturers, published in the Fed
eralist.
The reasons for this tendency also
are shown by study of present con
ditions. Although the total value of
products manufactured in the Dis
trict now is greater than 1919. the
number of employees today is some
what less than in that year. Along
with this slight decrease in employ
ment opportunities, there is the policy
of retrenchment of the Federal Gov
eminent, which keeps Government
employees at minimum. 1t seems APP
parent that if Washington is to retai1
its own boys and girls in their home
town, additional employment must b.
created.

ASHEvILLE, N c., February s.
The volume of construction operations
in the United States promises to equal

year, in the opinion of more than
1000 of the leading contractors of
the country as expressed in state
men issued at the eighth annual meet

tractors of America. held here.
The prediction is based upon OBJ
servations made in virtually every
State in the Union.
we are convinced" the statement
declares, that a large number of
economic and sociological influences
are currently at work to create a
steady demand for conservatively
financed, well designed and soundly
built structures Of various types. The
annual increase in population requires
a large amount of construction of all
kinds.

''While some cities may not need
immediate additional hotel, office or
luxurianr apartment floor space, all
types OF, construction activities are
feeling the effect of the trend toward
'modernization.' Obsolescence Of Of
flee and factory buildings, theaters
and schools is constantly making a
call for new structures. Railroads
are undertaking elimination of grade
crossings, elevation of tracks and new
mileage to meet newly developing con-
ditions. The vast volume of automo
bile traffic is demanding not only
thousands of miles of paved highways
but that roads be wfdened, an opera

New Schools Required.
Revision and expansion of educa-
tional methods are requiring new COM

Banks and mortgage bond houses
which handle financing of construc-
ton operations should not depend
upon the volume OF building permits
in the cities for their information
in drawing conclusions concerning
the trend Of future construction.
These building permits statistics do
not form a true barometer of the
activities of the construction indus
tries, for they failed to include the
vast volume of construction of public
works, highways, railroad improve
ment and much public utility work.
