Having concluded hearings on the

subcommittee will devote tomorrow TO q
tour of the city to observe the condition
Of streets and to inspect school sites.
The subcommittee win not begin 70
decide upon changes In the House pro-
visions until next week. and 1t Is not
certain at this time what day the bill
will be ready to be reported to the

Besides amendments TO detailed items
In the bill, the subcommittee Is expected
to give careful consideration TO the plea
of the citizens of the District for more
equitable division of cost between the
United States and District governments.
Any changes the subcommittee may
MAKE. however, will not be known until
the bill Is ready TO be reported.
An appeal Is being made TO the SEN
ate to insert in the bill an item OF
S45 600 to prevent the closing OF the
Bryant street pumping station OF the

a safeguard in case OF trouble on the

If an Unforeseen accident should oc-

"they could Immediately be cut OF a

the Bryant street station put in oper-
alton. provided an emergency force was

Mr.. Lorch further believes that fall

.|NC|NERAT0R BILL
MEETS OPPOSITION
City Heads Take Stand
Against Capper Measure
in Letter.

Vigorous objection to the capper bill.
providing for the establishment of
three modern high-temperature gar
oage and refuse incinerators in the
District, was registered by the Commits
sioners today in letter TO Budget d.
rector Lord. The Commissioners wrote
to the budget director to ascertain If
the provisions Of the measure are in
accord with the financial program of
President Coolidge.
The bill authorizes the Commissioners
to acquire three suitable and properly
located sites within the District and TO
erect modern incinerator on each at
total cost not to exceed 100000.
The Commissioners OF the District
OF Columbia are opposed TO the pro-
visions of this BILL" they told Gen. Lord.
The presen method OF garbage dis
posal is satisfactory from the standpoint
on non-nuiSance as well as from a
financial standpoint. The reduction
plant is looted on District-owned prop
erty In Virginia, about 30 miles from
washington. where Ii Is out of the way
in a sparsely settled section and where
1t has been in operation for years with
practically no complaints. The ex-
pense OF dispoSing OF the garbage In
this manner is more than met by the
revenues derived from the sale OF grease
extracted therefrom
1T IS true that the District Is in need
OF more adequate facilities for the dis
posal OF miscellaneous refuse. The pres
ent plant Is not owned by the District
IL Is badly located from an economic
standpoint, and has been the source
1f complaints from citizens in the neigh
borhooo- Because OF its inadeQuacy
much waste material from Federal Gov
eminent establishments and from mu-
nictpal government tsuch as street and
alley cleaningsI. and from private Of
fees Is burned on dumps, which. OF
course. creates much smoke and con-
stltutes nuisance.
TO correct this condition. the Dis
trict proposes 10 acquire site for a
iransfe. station where collecting units
would deliver their loads and where
material would be reduced In bulk 10 q
minimum bv ineineration and otherwise
and from whence the residue could be
transported 70 an adequate dumping
ground
The Commissioners believe that ere
incincTator is all that Is necessary or
advantageous since sites for three in
cinerators would be exceedingly diffica!t
70 procure, as In every section there
would be objections from residents
The Commissioners are OF the opilion
that they should continue the policy OF
operating salvage plant as an aid tn
the disposition Of miscellaneous refuse
snd that In conjunction with incinera =
ton trash plant should be built IN

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March 9.-The COM
pletely mechanical man, conditioned,
controlled and motivated with machine
precision. has been foreshadowed here
by private showing Of the film. "The
Mechanics of the Brain" covering the
researches Of I. P. Pavlov. the great
Russian scientist
Members of the New York Society
for Clinical Research, who viewed the
film. said Prof. Pavlov's study Of con-
ditioned refitxes." as shown by the pic
ture. constituted an event Of scientific
importance comparable to the Dar-
winian hypothesis and to the later re-
searches Of the great American. Jacques
Loeb
In Prof. Pavlov's perturbation of why
animals and humans behave, there Is q
disquieting reminder OF the iron man,
answering the telephone and starting
the vacuum cleaner as shown here by
a New York scientist several weeks ago.
However. Prof Pavlov did not begin
with mechaniStic theory. Geared,
regimented. rack -and -pinion conduct. as
revealed by his motion picture, Is
merely the incidental result OF placing
brains, muscles. cells and tissue under
the ruthless and impartial eye of a
motion picture camera, through long
period Of years.
In 1904 Prof. Pavlov was awarded the
Nobel prize for his researches in diges-
tive functions Fl. c. Wells later called
him "a star which lights the world
shining down a vista hitherto unex-
plored." DR.. II. S. Liddell of the faculty
of the School Of Medicine of Cornell
University said to this reporter today.
after viewing the film:
Prof Pavlov is undoubtedly the
greatest living scientist in the world"
Frogs. elephants, apes, dogs. bears,
geese. cows and human beings have the
stellar and minor roles in this great
laboratory drama The unseen play
wright Is realist. There Is no "long
arm of coincidence" and no happy
ending In this play. A bit of inert
tissue Is galvanized into a grotesque
semblance OF life: the nervous system,
In both higher and lower organisms,
becomes complex OF wires leading out
from switchboard; the brain becomes
clearing house for sensory and motor

BUS LINE REQUESTS
SERVICE EXTENSION
Would Bring Forest Glen
Coaches to Downtown
Point Under Plan.

Application for authority to extend
the terminus OF its Forest Glen line
from Sixteenth and Kennedy streets to
Eighth street and Pennsylvania avenue
was filed with the Public Utilities Com
mission today by the Washington Rapid
Transit Co.
Through service from the downtown
section OF Washington TO the various
points In Montgomery County. Md.

include -Four Corners, Linden and East
Silver Spring. would result IL the appli-
cation Is approved.
Wants TO Run Express Service.
Besides an extension In the line. the
company also seeks authority 10 estab-
iish an express service on the Forest
Glen line between and pm, with
no local stops between Fifteenth and K
streets and Sixteenth and Buchanan
streets. The primary object OF this pro-
posed limited service Is TO prevent
busses leaving downtown in the after
noon rush hour from being overcrowded
with local passengers
The application bore the signature of
e. D. Merrill. president and general
manager OF the bus company. who
pointed out that the proposed through
service on the Forest. Glen line would
involve a revision OF the company =
agreement with the Capital Traction Co
concerning operations north of Kennedy
street. The revision OF this agreement.
he said. will deprive the bus company
If certain amount paid by the Capital
Traction Co. in support of the service
but will permit the bus concern 10 oper-
ate between points north OF Kennedy
street and points south OF Kennedy
street
Expect to Equaiixe Loss.
1T is believed" he declared, that an
additional number OF persons will con-
tinue the trip on the buses rather than
transferring 10 street cars. and that
additional new business will be secured
due 20 the increased convenience OF the
service, so that the revenue lost by
change In the agreement will be made
up by increased number OF passengers
using our busses"
The company urged the commission
TO authorize the improved service by
March 25. in connection with a change
In schedule which will increase the ef-
iiciency of service on both the Sixteenth
street and Petworth lines between noon
and 4 pm No change In the present
rates Of fare is contemplated. but Mr..
Merrill said IT may be necessary TO IN
troduce an Identification ticket To inds-
cate those passengers who have paid
through fares as distinguished from
thn3e who are riding only in the State
Of Maryland.

In obtaining license.
In addition 70 this board there would
b. separate examining boards to take

This commission was given authority
10 create other examining boards for
the various other groups Of drug!ess
healers The modified bill to be SUBJ
mitted this afternoon will direct the
setting up of these other boards also.
When the public hearing was being
held q week ago representatives of the
ehiropractorS and naturopaths declared
they were willing to have an examina-
t!on in the basic science. but they felt
the examination should be prepared

The pending bill would provide for
the licensing of all persons who have
been engaged in the practice Of their
particular branch of healing for a
stated length of time. but would apply

sultant OF forces.
While Prof Pavlov did not begin with
q theory, his researches led him to his
statement of Conditioned refiexes," !"

accept, not only as novel and hopeful
inquiry but as a revelation Of human
motivations of profound social signif-
icance Adherents OF this school MAIN

inality; that 1t will lay the basis Of a
new educational system through early
conditioning. and that it will clear up
the problem of emotional instability.
which, In its eXtremities, leads to crime.
DR. Liddell outlined the theory OF
conditioned refiexes to this inquirer as
follows:
Prof. Pavlov proves beyond question
the localiZation Of brain functions IN
animals and men-1ot a new discovery,
but of great importance In providing a
physical basis for conduct. His picture
shows land this has never been done
before) that the conditioned reflex Is
the basis Of all higher nervous ac-
tivity.
The mechanics Of this lies in the
fact. also shown in the picture. that
there is a mysterious linking Of iso-
lated brain centers In associative proc
esses. The reaction to a food stimu-
lus, for instance. Is q reflex: when the
offer of food is associated with any
particular sight or sound, so that the
sight or sound will cause the animal
TO expect food, we have a conditioned
reflex.
THE practical importance Of this
lies in the conditioning Of infants-the
removal OF fears and the building up
Of desirable reactions and capacities.
An inhibition causes dissertation of
brain areas. with resulting fear and
impotence.
IAN understanding of the mechanics
of this opens the way for curative
methods. Marvellous results have been
obtained by the early conditioning OF
children Its Importance as the physi-
cal basis of experimental psychology is
obvious"
While it is Robot which Prof. Paw

veneration for the mysteries of life
will not be disturbed by seeing 1t. Prof
