NEW YORK, November 14.-Pressure
on the bond market was eased somewhat
today with the higher range of stock
prices, but reverberations Of the stock
liquidation during the past three days
were still felt in many issues.
Gains and losses were about evenly d.
vided, most of the advances being made
in United States Government and high
grade railroad and public utility bonds.
The more speculative descriptions, many
of them at their low prices for the
year, continued to lose ground.
The character of the selling, how
ever, had obviously changed. There
was not so much forced selling, but
there was an equal volume of selling to
buy stocks. Trading was not as heavy
as in yesterdays record session.
Advances were registered by Youngs.

Valne of 7ubercuhn TEST.

A DVOCATES of the tuberculin test as a re-
quirement of all diaries selling milk in
any form for human use can find a strong
argument to justify the cost of the test in the
figures on milk consumption during the years
the drive for the test has been conducted.
In 1920 less than 5000, 900 cows and heifers
cut OF 100000 were subjected to the test. BY
1926 this figure had increased to 10 0OO. 900, and
the total now Is estimated at 100000.
During that same period the per capita milk
consumption has increased SO quarts year.
Whether the test can be given credit for the
increase is subject for conjecture. but the
coincidence is striking

formed an admirable foil for her fair coloring
and golden hair" Marie Antoinette;s quarters
at Versailles and the .Trianon show to what ex-
tent she carried out this color motif On one
occasion one Of the ladies of her encourage ex-
pressed the opinion that this was traditionally
unlucky color, to which the Queen gayly replied
that 1t might be so to others, but that she found
herself at home only with pale blue. Il was not
long afterward that she changed it for black in
the Temple Prison, and Is was In black that she
met her death on the guillotine.
Charlemagne the Conqueror, Emperor of the
West inspired his enemies with terror, not alone
through his reputation for invincibility but
chiefly through having his cavalry clad In black
armor and mounted on black chargers. This
TACT Is well brought out in TennySons
"Charlemagne." -
Charlemagne was wont to say, BLACK is the
color of victory" and he carried out this color
scheme into every detail of his life. In planning
his campaigns in any conquered city he would
order his living quarters to be draped in black
velvet, maintaining that only through close con-
tact with this color was he able to concentrate
and to plan. His campaign tent was lined with
black silk and all the appointments of it were of
the same color.
The Empress Theodore, whose career is one
of the most amazing in history was so partial to
red that she was never known to wear any other
color Tradition has it that she was convinced
that red was the secret Of her power and that
after her accession to the Byzantine throne she
surrounded herself with this color in the full
belief that through 1t she would retain he-
power. However, on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem,
In order to appear humble before the Holy
Sepulcher. she donned the gray robes Of . num-

to ascribe her downfall entirely to the discon-
tinuance OF the dominating color
Speaking relative to the pronounced miscon-
ceptions Of color, Jana said that so frequently
people with brown eyes believed that for this
reason brown was their color and made extern

their cases produce harmful vibrations and
should not be used by them at ALL In other
words, because person has brown, blue or gray
eyes 1t does not mean that q corresponding color
is invariably that which suits that particular
personality. The date of one BIRTH as well as
the birth dates of the parents, according to
Jana, Is a much more important factor i'm de-

interests of the town and that, while

cided that the owner must petition for
rezoning, then the entire proceedings
as to this particular parcel will have
to be held again, including readvertise-
ment of the petition.
AT the meeting yesterday the COM
missioners conducted a public hearing
on the petition of the gas company
siding over the county road between
Halpine and the Vier's Mill road, adj
jacent to the present crossing Of the
road by the main line Of the Baltimore
81 Ohio.
Frederick M. Bradley pointed out to
the commissioners that the same ar
guments adduced against the proposed
rezoning could be applied to the pro-
posed track. Ee pointed out to the
board that it was apparent that the
proposed plant might be obnoxious be-
cause the petitioners had asked for q
coming Of Industrial "E" He suggested
to the board that industrial I'D" would
permit anything not q nuisance and
that the petitioners had asked for the
last class. He said the purpose Of zon-
ing was to protect against such things
as 1t was proposed to place on the land.
He could see, he said, why light indus
tries could be placed there, but he saw
no reasoning in the suggestion that
because the railroad tracks were there.
Area Might Spread.
He said that II the plant were al
lowed and the side track permitted, the
area would spread, and that 1t would
materially depreciate the surrounding
property. There is no necessity for the
plant at this location, as there is plenty
Of other ground, he contended, which
could be acquired.
Harold C. Smith, Rockville attorney.
appeared for E. C. Bradenburg and
Philander C. johnson, residents in the
vicinity of the proposed rezoning, and
pointed out that the same arguments
applied to the siding as to the coming.
william F. Prettyman, attorney of
Rockville, representing the gas company,
said that If the reZoning was not al
lowed, then the request for the siding
would not be pressed. He discussed
coming decisions by the Supreme Court
Of the United States, and told the board
that while it had no power to make q
nuisance, nevertheless II there was a
nuisance, 1t had the power to regulate
1t. But, he added, that phase doesn't
enter into this case, and they were
merely asking for permission to carry

of such Importance that he would de-
fer the selections for the present. The
resolution directed the committee to re-
port at the next meeting of the cham
Der, giving tn names of the persons in
terviewed and the criticisms and sug-
gestionS made by them.
The chamber recently reduced the an
nual dues from $40 to SIS and as an
additional means Of reviving interest
last evening voted to remit all unpaid
dues, excepting for the year just starting.
Cooperation IL Offered.
Announcement that the Rockville
Pike Citizens Association is In process
of formation led the chamber to adopt
q resolution extending to and inviting
from the new organization "a cordial
interchange of views concerning. ana
friendly cooperation in all problems
which may hereafter arise in which
the town of Rockville and the Rockville
Pike Citizens Association may be mu-
tually interested" and extending to
the members of the Rockville Pike
Citizens Association an invitation to
attend the meetings of the Rockville
Chamber and offering the privileges OF
the floor to them for the discussion OF
all matters which may be the mutual
concern of themselves and the town
of Rockville.
The resolution further set forth that
the Rockville Chamber Of Commerce
Is interested in the prosperity and well
being not only Of the town Of Rock
willie, but of the adjacent portions OF
the county.
The meeting was one Of the best
attended held by the chamber in num-
Der Of months. Reports Of various
committees were submitted, including Q
statement Of the treasurer which showed
the organization to be in excellent flnan-
cial condition. The retiring president,
Curtis L. Ward, presided until the cleo
ton of officers, when the new president,

LAND At HALP|NE
REzON|NG PUT OFF
Weeks Delay Granted to Give
Attorney Opportunity to
Study Case.
BY WILLIAM J. WHEATLEY,
stan Correspondent of The star.

ROCKVILLE. Md, September 1s.-
Decision on the petitions for rezoning
from residential to industrial of two
large parcels of land at Halpine, near
here, which was expected from the
Board Of County Commissioners yester-
day, was put over for another week to
permit Joseph c. Cissell, attorney for
he board, to review the petitions and
he proceedings In the case. There is
title doubt that the rezoning will be
authorized, 1t was learned, but 1t was
said that the county attorney, after a
hasty perusal of the papers in an execu-
tive session, held to discuss the matter,
pointed out that he would like to study
the point as to whether 1t would be
legal to rezone o properly without o
petition from the owner.
All Cases Held UP.
While the point Is involved in only
one of the petitions, 1t was decided by
the commissioners to hold I'D all of
them until next Tuesday, when DR..
Benjamin C. Perry, president of the
board, announced that 1t would be
made. The question Is said to have
been raised on the petition of T. H.
Lenovitz for q rezoning OF property,
which, it is planned, will be used for
a. distributing plant for q domestic
cooking gas, served in tanks. It was
said that Lenovitz is not the owner of
the property, but has q contract to ac-
quire the property, and It was this that
raised the doubt in the mind Of the
counsel.

GRANT STRESSES
PLANNING NEED
Director of Capital Commits

Chamber.
Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CLARENDON, Va, September 1S.-
Lack of any satisfactory point of con-
tact with Virginia authorities relative
to the planning development Of nearby
Virginia was stressed by Col. q. 9.
Grand, Sd, director Of the National Cap
ital Park and Planning Commission, at
q public reception held by the Airing
ton Chamber Of Commerce here last
night.
Col. Grant declared that his commits
sion had no desire to dictate TO the
authorities in nearby Virginia or Mary
land as to their development plans, but
that the act of Congress creating the
commission contemplates that Virginia
and Maryland, will set up ofdcial
agencies for the purpose of co-operAt-
ing with the Federal planning body in
the development Of the greater met
ropOlitan area.
Cause Of Delay.
The lack of such an agency IN
Virginia, clothed with adequate powers,
is delaying the adoption of plans for
the development of the metropolitan
area in Arlington and Fairfax Counties,
Col. Grant said.
State Senator Frank L. Ball, who
spoke after Col. Grant had concluded,
announced that he is now formulating
plans for legislation to provide an ON
cial Virginia body Of the kind indicated
by Col. Grant as being necessary.
Der of the National Capital Park and
Planning Commission, spoke at some
length on the plans that had been
worked out for development Of both
sides of the Potomac from the Key
Bridge to Great Falls. These plans, If
carried out, will preserve the region in
dicated as q natural park for all time
to come.
Last nights meeting was the occa-
sion of the opening of the new quarters
of the Chamber of Commerce on the
ground floor Of the new Rees Building.
The room was banked with floral deco
rations, provided by friends and mem
bers of the chamber and the walls were
decorated with many maps showing the
plans for the development of Arlington
County and the entire metropolitan area
of Washington.
Goodnow . Speaker.
Among the other speakers were Fred
G. Goodnow, president of the Alexan-
dria Chamber of Commerce; Dorsey w.
d. c., Chamber of Commerce, and
Clarence r. Ahalt, past president Of
the local chamber.
Keith A. Brumback, who presided,
presented Ashton c. Jones, donor of the
chambers new quarters. Mr.. Jones, in
responding, declared that he felt 1t was
the duty of every one after they had
provided comfortable living for them
selves to devote some time and effort
in the interests of the general public
good, and those were the motives which
prompted him and his associates, Mrs.
Lizzie Rucker and Judge N. A. Rees, in
donating the use of the building to the
local trade body.
There was large attendance ut the
reception, including members Of the
chamber and their invited guests and
q large number of civic leaders Of the
county,

BUS SPEED IS CUT
ON BALTIMORE PIKE
Running Time From Capital
to Be Increased by IS
Minutes.
peciaI Dispatch to The Star.

special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, September 18.-Sched-
Cles for running time of BUSES between
Baltimore and Washington will be re-
vised within few days to reduce speed
Of the vehicles, according to Maj
Stuart Purcell, member of the Pub
lie Service Commission.
Present schedules allow only an hour
and 30 or IS minutes to cover the 40
miles between the bus terminals of the
two cities, Purcell said. Such a Sched-
ule forces the drivers consistently to
violate the speed limits both in Balti-
more and on the Washington Boule-
ward, 1t Is contended.
The running time will be so adj
1uSted so that an hour and IS minutes,
at least, will be allowed for the trip,
Purcell said.
Time Limit Increased.
Agitation against excessive speed Of
buses on the Washington Baltimore
Boulevard began several weeks ago.
when a motorist, Herman Weigold OF
Torrington, Conn.,, was killed and his
wife, Elsa, was seriously injured. Their
auto was struck by speeding bus at
Waterloo, Md.
Following the accident, many COM
plants against bus speed were received
by Automobile Commissioner Baughman
and the Public Service Commission, and
a check-up on the speed of buses was
ordered by Baughman.
AS a result four drivers were arrested
and fined following hearings at Elk
ridge and Savage.
Speedometer Out Of Order.
At the speeding hearings the drivers
OF the four buses claimed they did not
know the speed the BUSES were trav-
cling. They declared the Speedometers
were not in working order.
The drivers also have been notified to
appear before the automobile commits
sioner and show cause why their
licenses should not be suspended.
They will be given a hearing and If
found guilty, may have their licenses
suspended for 80 or so days, according
to the violation.
