GROUP ENDS DRIVE
ON TUBERCULOSIS
Second Annual Campaign Is
Closed. With Results
Cited in Letter.

, The second annual campaign OF the
Washington tuberculosis Association to
show the life-saving value OF early dis
covery in the fight against tuberculosis
closed officially yesterday when letters
of thanks and report of the campaign
were sent to all members of the COM
mittee in charge by DR.. George M.
Kober, president of the association, and
DR.. j. w. Peabody, chairman OF the
cc.3ycittec
The letter calls attention to one of
the immediate results of the campaign,
namely, the increase in the number OF
persons going to the Health Depart
rnsnt tuberculosis clinic at 5l2 I street
SOC examination or advice during the
month of April, as compared with pre-
N61s periods. The official figures in
clude the work of both the adult and
the childrens clinics, the latter hav-
ing been organized and financed by the
tuberculosis Association from Christ
mas Seal funds and conducted under
the supervision of the Health Depart
ment.
More than 600 posters carrying the
campaign slogan, Tuberculosis Can Be
Cured" EARLY Discovery-Early Re
covery," were displayed during the
month and several thousand pieces Of
educational literature distributed.
Reports show that 90l examinations
of old and new patients were made at
these clinics during April, an increase
of 100 over the number made i'll March
and 420 more than during April, 1929.
While it is too soon to estimate the
additional examinations which have
been given by private physicians during
the campaign, 1t is known that large
number have given their hearty CO.
operation.
The Children's tuberculosis Clinic,
the starting of which conceded with the
opening of the early diagnosis cam
paign, is to be continued indefinitely at
the Health Department clinic, with re-
ception hours from 9 to IL on Mondays
and Fridays.

Origin Ancient Egypt.
The art of silhouettes found its origin
in the days of ancient Egypt, when all
portraits were done in sIhouettes. In
the time of the Romans candlelight
pictures were drawn from the reflection
of proflles outlined against wall, and
this art Is believed to have come from
the early Etruscars. The interest in
silhouettes declined to some extent dur
ing the Middle Ages, but was revived
at the time of the French revolution,
by a Gen. Silhouette, from whom the
art derives its name.
There was a steady growth of
popularity for silhouettes which Gull
minated in the first exhibition of the
subject in Paris in 1925. Many of the
early pieces of work in the nineteenth
century were done on china or glass.

prison sentences of five years as a
result of this case. They are Morris
Maxim and Leo Franklin, who have
been 10 months to date at Sing Sing.
The case drew wide attention be-
cause of the bitter antagonism of
the court-which permitted the at
torneys to drag in issues of Com
munism, of the defendants beliefs,
and accusations of "You are an
enemy to this country, to law and
to order"
The atmosphere was greatly SIM
liar to the more recent Gastonia
case. The needle trade workers
have formed Mineola Gastonia COM
mittees, in the various shops, and a
meeting held last Wednesday at
Irving Plaza, was splendidly at
tended
"Save the Mineola and Gastonia
strikers" was the cry at the confer
ence. The workers present were
urged to raise funds, and to inten-
sify the drive to have the union
members pay up the so cent assess
ments agreed to for the Gastonia
strikers.
Began in 1926.
The case grew out of an alleged
assault on a certain small fur shop
in Mineola, the Barnett Fur Com
pany, in 1926. Barnett was unable
to identify the strikers as his as
sailants in court. A scab, right
winger by the name of Sarcus,
named the defendants on trial as
having been present on the scene.
Case Heresy-Hunt.
The case rapidly grew into a
heresy hunt. The scab also named
Ben Gold and |. Shapiro as having
been present at the alleged attack.
Gold and Shapiro were declared in
nocent.
The other nine workers, including
Maxim and Franklin, were found
guilty" Their case was appealed.
The Judge confirmed the verdict on
Maxim and Franklin, and ordered
new trial for the remaining seven.

held in every part of the Soviet
Union.
In Leningrad, Kharkov, Kiev,
Odessa, Vladivostok, and in scores
of great industrial centers of the
Donetz and Kuznetz Basins, the
celebration of the Twelfth Anniver-
sary was turned int GA pledge by
millions of workers and peasants
to accomplish results in Socialist
industrial upbuilding which would
far exceed the plans of the Five
Year Plan.
In Moscow, following the great
parade, which started from the Red
Sauare after being addressed by
Stain, Rykov, Kalining Voroshiloff,
Mikoyan and other leaders of the
Soviet Union, thousands attended the
Twelfth Anniversary Festival at the
Moscow Great Theatre. Representa-
tives, not only of Moscow industries,
but also workers and peasants rep
resenting the national republics, the
lows and the villages, from Com
munist Party and Youth League or
CARNATIONS, and from the Trade
Unions, again and again pledged
that their organizations would work
unitedly for socialist construction
under the Five Year Plan.
Greater enthusiasm has seldom
been seen at Moscow celebrations of
workers.
Amidst great applause, Michael
Kalinin, Chairman of the Council of
Peoples Commissars, referred to the
graet achievements during the first
year of the five year plan.
He promised unexpected speed in
Socialist reconstruction, especially in
the collectivization of agriculture.
Large anniversary meetings were
held in every factory and workers
institution in Moscow. Foreign
workers. delegations were fraternal-
ly welcomed. Leningrad reported
the arrival of English, Irish and
French workers. delegations.
Among the great industrial under
takings launched on the Anniversary
Day under the Five Year Plan, were
six textile factories, many sugar,
leather, brick, glass, furniture
plants, and sawmills. A total of
80 new industrial units were started.
Eight great power stations were
launched in the Urals, Donetz, and
the Ukraine. Many railways, tram
ways, hospitals, schools, and shops
weer opened.
One of the most inspiring features
of the occasion was the opening of
hundreds of new collective farms,
and the organization of Red grain
transports everywhere.
The greatest Of Soviet Union radio
stations, the Trade Union Central
Councils station broadcasting on
100 kilowatts, was opened on 18th
Anniversary Day, as further mark
TO the great progress of the Five
Year Plan.
