NINE. CURIE, ON
63RD BIRTHDAY.
KEEPS WORKING
Reaches Conclusion Radium
Beneficial for No Disease
but Cancer.
BY RALPH HEINZEN,
United Press Staff Correspondent

PARIS, Nov. z. - Nine. Marie
Curie, on the sixty-third birthday,
after months of patient work in her
tiny laboratory, has come to the
conclusion that radium, which
proved successful in cancer treat
ment, can not exert curative powers
on other known human ailments.
She is believed, however, to be near
important new discoveries.
In the future, Nine. Curie and
her assistants will concentrate their
efforts in generalizing the use of
radium in cancer treatment.
The greatest handicap at present
is the fact that one ton of pitch
blend produces one gram of radium,
and makes the remedy extremely
expensive.
Nine. Curie did not halt her work
to observe her birthday today, but
continued to develop a phase of
experimentation which has attract
ed her interest recently.
1t is the separation of more un-
known elements from pitchblend.
For several weeks French SCENT
lists have awaited an announcement
by Nine. Curie that she has dis
covered new elements in the black
uranium oxid, from which she and
her late husband extracted radium
and polonium.
1t has been said that she is on
the verge of another important dis
covery.
Despite her discoveries, Nine.

Board Considers Liability Poli-

CITY NOT RESPONSIBLE
Operators of Trucks Liable to be Named Defendants i'll Civil Nc- tions When Citizens Are Injured in Accidents.

Liability insurance to cover dri- vers Of fire department apparatus was considered at meeting of the fire commission last night after q discussion of laws which make di- vors liable to suit for injuries suffer- cd by persons when the apparatus is involved in accidents. The city is not liable for injuries or damage caused by the apparatus because it is en- gagged in a public duty.
 petition signed by Councilman l.uclen Macora, James Murphy and William Boyle. which had been for warded from the common council, brought the subject before the board.
 This petition urged that insurance he carried on the automobiles in the department so that if persons are injured in q collision with the trucks they will be able to collect damages.
 One estimate was received which would cost the department S1.O95 for the 1 automobiles. Injury to one person would result in damages as high at $5.000 and it would be pos slblo to collect S10.oo0 for any one accident
 The board took no action but nc gotiatlonS will be carried on to find out what liability insurance can be taken out on the drivers. Chairman Butler sounded the sentiment of the board when he said:
 Ut is unfair to hold q man per sonally liable for accidents when he IS required to drive at a fast rate Of speed and for q salary Of S3S d week."
 A proposal 10 take out insurance on all tho boilers in the fire houses. which will cost approximately $279.50, is also under consideration. If these two items arc acted upon favorably they will he included in next years budget.

 As the White House was report ing that President Hoover was talk ing no active part in the last quar- rel between the senate republican regulars and the independents, the worried senate leaders seriously considered Senators La Toilette and Thomas of Idaho for the all-import- ant finance committee vacancy as sgnments.
