Through he Static

Fair volume. lots of static. not much fading. Local noises weren't as troublesome as usual. The static queered things to a great extent. coming through in great blasts.
 A flock of speeches came through from WIZ in the course of the tes- timonial dinner to Rear Admiral Charles P. Plunkett, U. S. N.. who retired yesterday after 4s years in the service of his country. He was given a great sendon, a large num- Der of prominent people gathering at a New York hotel to do him honor. Secretary of the Navy Will bur.

PRINCE CAROL IS
 AGAIN THWARTED
Arrest of Former General Ra-
 koWiCa DisClosS Plan

| Vienna, Feb. 16 UP)-A second attempt of Prince Carol, whose young son is king of Rumania, to send a manifesto to his homeland has been thwarted according to ad- vices from Bucharest, through the arrest at the border of former Gen. eral Rakowica.
 The arrest was considered a sequel to the arrest several months ago of M. Manoilescu, former undersecre- tary of finance for Rumania, at the border. He was carrying message from Prince Carol. who had re- nounced succession to the throne while his father. King Ferdinand, was still alive.
 Manoilescu was charged with treason in conspiring with Prince Carol to carry letters to the prince'e mother, Queen Marie, and Bucharest newspapers. It was charged that Carol was, attempting to gain the Rumanian throne or at least become a member of the regency.
 The former finance secretary was tried at a court martial. said that Carol had no thought of seizing the throne. He was acquitted.
 Since then Ion Bratianu, who was premier, has died and the question of the status of Prince Carol has been quiet. Bratianu was succeed ed in the premiership by his brother Vintila.
 It was not until the arrest of Gen. Rakowica-who was said to be car- rying the manifesto from Paris to Bucharest-that the prince again figured in the delicate problems of Rumania. What the manifesto con- tained was not learned.

CHANCE AGAIN IS
 BEING ADVOCATED
Another Attempt at Reappor'
 tionment Of Congress

Washington. Feb. 16 R-For the third time in the past seven years, a move has been launched in the house to reapportion it's membership among the several states on the basis of their increased population since the 1910 census.
 Faced by a number of bills pro- posing methods for the reapportion- ment. the house census committee is now engaged in hearings on the sub- measure that will reallocate the membership on the basis of the es- timated 1880 census
 Although it is stipulated in the constitution that the reapportion- ment shall take place with each de- cennial census, all efforts for it's con- summation under the 1920 census were deadlocked one group of repre- sentatives opposing any increase of the house members while others re- fused to accept the loss of any states representations.
 The proponents of the reappor- tionment claim that the increased population between 1910 and 1880 has led to wide discrepancies in the representation of a number of states as authorized under the constitution.
 In the bill now under considera- ton, drawn by the committee chair man, Representative Fenn of Con- necticut, the 1880 census reappor- tionment would make the following changes in the house memberships:
 Alabama, loss of one representa- tive: Arizona, gain of one: Califor- mia, gain of six; Connecticut, gain of enc: Florida. gain of one; Indiana, loss of two: Iowa, loss of two, kan- sas. loss of one; Kentucky. loss of two: Louisiana, loss of one; Maine. loss of one; Massachusetts, loss of one; Michigan. gain of four: Missis- sippi, loss of two: Missouri, loss of four; Montana, gain of one: Nebras- ka, loss of one; New Jersey, gain of two; New Mexico, gain of one; New York, loss of two; North Carolina. Sdlll OI ollSs 4>O1 LII LdhOld, looS VI one; Ohio, gain of three; Oklahoma, gain of one; Pennsylvania, loss of one; Tennessee, loss of one; Texas, gain or two; Vermont, loss of one; Virginia. loss of one; Washington, gain or one.
 In the sixty seventh congress in 1921, bill for rcapportionment on the 1920 census calling for an ti,- crease from 435 to 460 members in the house was passed but was re- committed on an amendment to make a further increase to 4SS members.
 In the last congress similar measure to that now before the con- mittee was defeated 197 to 1S7.

 nbly Burned.
 Jefferson City, Mo, Feb. 1s (UP) Sixteen men and women today of- fered skin to help save the life of 11-year- old Leslie Landrum. who lost nearly all the skin from his hips to his ankles in . nre here few days ago.
 pr. s. V. Bedford, surgeon at St. Mary's hospital. said that grating is the only way the boys life can be saved. He estimated that nearly 1000 pieces Of skin will have to be grafted.
 About 15O square inches of the child's body was burned. Over six hundred pieces of skin have been grafted already.
 The process must be carried on over a period of months. Dr. Bed- ford said, because of Leslie's weak ened condition. The pieces are about as large as . fingernail.

 Jack. The Inquisitor. from WT1C. had flock of difficult questions last night. We might say that the ques- tons weren't 50 knotty; the answers were. We kept score during the first 25 and made six correct answers. Not 70 bad.
 The Castle Farm concert orchestra from WLW, Cincinnati, offered Bridal Roses Overture" a sweet se- lection with perfectly grand trum- pet solo included. WLW came through in good shape, much to our surprise. There was a bit of inter ference hanging around on the wave, but it didn't do any harm.

 The second experimental program in musical education, to be broad- cast by Walter Damrosch tomorrow at 10 o'clock. will be heard through WTIC. Hartford, as was the first program last Friday. This concert is planned for the senior school grades and will be on a different plane from last weeks, which was designed for the elementary grades. If the two experimental programs prove suc- cessfui, MT. Damrosch plans full series of similar concerts next fall. He will be assisted, tomorrow by the New York Symphony orchestra.
 
 With Joanne de Nault, Canadian contralto, as soloist, part of the concert of the Cincinnati Orpheus club will be broadcast by WLW. Cin- cinnati. tonight at s:30 o'clock.

It is composed of some 200 business and professional men of Cincinnati who make choral singing their vocation. Three times a year they appear in concert with soloist of national reputation.

Won.an's Contrdriness

Contrariness 10 one Of woman's
charms and should be cultivated In
her dress as In everything else.
In summer women wear fox furs
with light dresses. Their hats are of
velvet in August and Of straw in Feb
ruary. Similarly, throughout the en-
tire history of fashion one can point
out equally amusing examples. 1t was
In the days Of the narrow sedan chairs
that women wore paniers as wide
spreading as possible. In the days
Of the crowded stagecoaches women
wore crinolines.
Fashions history furnishes us with
example after example Of the whims
of women which always indicate how
Indifferent they are to logical argu-
ments. One cannot refrain from re-
marking, too. that 1t Is in times when
the financial condition Of the country
is most acute that luxury is most out
of reason. The less money there Is
available, the more fashionable and
sought after are gold cloth and metal
embrOlderies. And so one may as well
understand that there is In style and

to Florida and 80 to Porto Rico. to as
sumo charge Of the health work there.
Epidemic conditions we're especially
grave in both places, and incubation Of
several hundred thousand persons had
to be arranged In order to prevent
spread of contagious. Nursing the
injured. the sick. aged and young and
caring for the newborn were heavy
tasks In both areas
The Red Cross nurses also were
called upon for work in epidemics IN
communities, including the serious
septic sore throat epidemic in New
England and a typhoid epidemic In
New York state.
More than $50 Red Cross Chapters
throughout the nation operate nursing
services which they support altogether
or In part.

through its pockets, removing a con-

Style and Business

"Style, the Juggernaqt. Don't ever
try to stand in her way!" writes Hen
ry Eckhardt in the Magazine Of Busi-
ness. "Style is a many-slzed lady.
When you first meet her, II is probably
in this her first and more primitive
form.
Later, If you improve her acquaint-
ance, you will discover her as Style,
the rejuvenatOr. She works wonders
In the dizziness Of businesses.
IF you cultivate her still further
and tame her to your own ends, she
becomes Style, the speeder-up of con-
sumption. She moves that much
dreaded saturation point several mil
lion units farther on.
''If you become thoroughly smitten
of her, and think she Is all there is
to business, she will reveal herself
as Style, the siren. Watch your step!"
In conclusion. Mr.. Eckhardt defines !:
"Style is the true essence and the
true feeling Of a current mode, under
standingly applied to a given prod
uct !"

Sunshine Great Help
in Preventing Disease

Sunshine is as important to chill
dren as food, observes DR.. R. L Har-
ris, writing In Hygeia on the use Of
sunlight In the treatment Of tuber-
culosIs.
Sunlight has been found especially
helpful in the treatment Of tuber-
culosls of the bones and joints, often
called surgical tuberculosis. This
type Of tuberculosis usually spreads
from a primary focus Of infection in
the lung until 1t is generalized, In
contrast to the localized form, which
is limited to the area first invaded by
the bacillus.
A large percentage Of patients with
surgical tuberculosis can be complete
ly cured. In one group Of adults that
Doctor Harris has had under his care,
elghty-five Of the first hundred were
able to return 70 ueetpl occupations
and support their families. The re-
suits In children are even better. he
says.
Since 95 per cent Of US have tuber-
culous infection some time during our
lives and since sunlight gives us the
best resistance against It, 1t behOoves
every one to have as much as possible.
