PUBLIC UTILITIES
BOARD TO MEET
0ne-Man Cars and Bus Line
Request to Come Up
Tomorrow.

The new Public Utilities Commits
sion will hold it's first public hearing
in the board room of the District
Building tomorrow at 10 o'clock.
Only two questions are on its cal
endar for consideration, one concern
ing the request of the Anacostia
Citizens Association to replace the
one-man cars now in operation on
the Anacostia line with the inn
proved type one-man cars, similar to
those operated on the Wisconsin ave-
nue. line, and the application Of the
Washington, Marlboro & Annapolis
Motor Lines for authority to operate
a bus line between the bus terminal
at Little Ninth and G streets and
Benning via Pennsylvania avenue,
Minnesota avenue ad AnacOStia road.
Opposed Small Cars.
The commissions policy in regard
to the one-man cars probably will be
determined as result of the hearing
on the petition of Anacostia Citizens
Association. The former commission
placed itself definitely on record as
a result of the hearing on the petition
of Anacostia Citizens Association.
Inc FORMER commission placed ltSen
definitely on record as opposed to the
operation of additional one-man cars,
but the new body is expected to take
a more liberal position in respect to
these-cars of the new type in view of
the appreciation of the civic organiza-
tionS.
The color scheme for the cars also
will be discussed. The new one-man
cars on the Wisconsin avenue line are
done in two-tone of buff and blue.
Better Color Favored.
Maj. w. E. r. Covell, acting Engi-
neer Commissioner. who is serving as
a member of the commission in the
absence of Lieut.. Col. j. Franklin
Bell, approves this color combination,
but suggestions have been made that
a more esthetic scheme be adopted for
the one-man cars of the future If the
commission allows them.
The commission has two more pub
lie hearings scheduled this month, one
Monday to consider reduction in the
rates of the Chesapeake & Potomac
Telephone Co., and the other on April
27 to consider an application of the
Union Transfer Co. for authority to
increase its rates for transporting

RICHMOND, Va, April 1.-THE
lowest forms of life have come into
existence through chemical agencies,
and environment has been a stronger
factor in the evolution of life and in
the development of the varieties and
species than is believed by the biolo-
gist of today, DIR. Victor c., Vaughn
of the National Research Council of
Washington declared in q paper pre-
sented last night at a public meeting
of the American Chemical Society,
which is holding it's seventy-third
annual convention here this week.
There is no life save in proteins, F"
asserted DIR. Vaughn, who for 80
years was dean of the department of
medicine and surgery at the UniVer-
sity of Michigan and who discussed
"a Chemical Concept of the Origin
and Development of Life.
There are protein molecules III
nitrogenous bodies--that is, bodies con-
tanning nitrogen--and it is from such
extremely small chemical units that
all living matter is built up, DR..
Vaughn said.
Therefore, he held, even the bacteria
and the bacteriaphage (the name given
TO the Sf1dilef IFdStceulS OuI OL WHICH
bacteria are constructed are protein
molecules.
Trading of Energy.
DIR. Vaughn pointed out that the
difference between living and dead
matter is that the living matter trades
energy with it's environment, and the
character of that environment de-
termines the form of this living pro-
tein. So long as the environment re-
mains unchanged the characteristics
of this living matter are unchanged.
This is shown by the fact that the
tubercular bacilli in the mummies of
Egypt have been found to be just like
those infesting human bodies today,
and to cause the same kind Of tissue
destruction, Dr. Vaughn said.
Throughout recorded time nothing has
remained so little changed as the bac-
terra of that type. he declared.
Higher forms of life, including the
life of man, have changed more
through history than these bacteria,
he added Notwithstanding all this,
different kinds of tubercular bacilli
have been produced BY changing the

environment. Thus we have the T. 3.
that attacks cattle and the T. B. that
attacks chickens.
DR. Vaughn explained that the
origin of the species, which most
biologists attribute to change in the
formation of cells, is in fact due to
change in the type of proteins, which
are chemical compounds based on diff
ference in environment.
my concept of the origin and de-
velopment of life" DIR. Vaughn said,
has not been evolved from my inner
consciousness, but has resulted from
more than 26 years of experimentation
in my laboratory, modified by the work
of others.
I'm the 90s / was seeking a method
by which l might obtain large guam
titles of some low form of life from
contamination. This quest ended in
my devising large bacteria tanks, from
which l was able to secure pure baC-
terial substance by the liilogram and
to demonstrate certain fundamental
facts, which have been verified by
workers in this country. France and
Germany and from which my con-
clusions have been drawn.
"All living things absorb, assimilate
and eliminate. This means that
gins. Such is the first evidence OF
life."

Wendt of the school of chemistry and

NEW PROCESS MAY
AID IN HAY FEVER
Three Washington Physi-
clans Describe Treatment
Which Holds Out High Hope.

Hope for that considerable proper
ton of those undergoing desensitizing
treatment for hay fever who are not
helped by the process, is held out in
a scientific paper prepared by Drs.
Harry S. Bernton, d. CreeSe Jones
and Frank A. Csonka, all of Wash
ington, which was read at the recent
twentieth annual meeting of the
Southern Medical Association at At
lanta.
The cure of sufferers from hay
fever and asthma by the simple means
of ascertaining to what pollen or other
wind-blown substance they are sensi-
tive and by proper immunizatiOn
thereto is already an accepted fact.
This method has been successfully
prosecuted at the hay fever clinic
maintained in connection with Emer-
gency Hospital in charge Of DR.. Bern
ton. There has been, however. al
ways a certain number of patients [
whom nothing gave relief.
Several Different PrOteins.
1t appears from the paper prepared
by the Washington scientists, that in
each of the pollens commonly causing
the trouble there are three or four
different proteins in widely differing
proportions.
For example, when an albumin
pollen makes up only ane-ninth of
all the proteins in a grain of polle!.
the patient receiving inoeulations
from the whole and who yet was
sensitive only. to this albumin, is
getting only one-fourth as much good
out of the treatment as he needs.
The new treatment, for which high
hopes are held out, consists in de-
sensiziting the patient not with the
offending pollen, but with a solution
of the protein. prepared from that
pollen, which is causing the trouble.
Some Sensitive to All.
Some patients are sensitive to all
the proteins, or to three out of four,
and in their cases the entire pollen
does very WELL it is explained. But
a number of cases are not ameuable
to such treatment and it is toward
them that the new technique is
aimed.
One of the great difficulties has
been getting enough material for
both study and application. but
progress is being made along that
line also.
