LONDON |LLUM|NED
/ FOR BIG MEETING
City FairyIand of BriIIiance
!, and Shadows for World
Lighting Delegates.
~ Gable TO The Star.

~ Gable to The Star.
LONDON, August 81 tNA.NA).-
The Triennial Congress of the Interna-
tional Commission on Illumination
opens. for the first time In Great Brit
ain, Tuesday, and in honor OF the event
London after dark is being transformed
into fairy city of lights and shadows.
Buildings, gray and familiar by day,
take on a pearly radiance, spires shine
and are changed and the towers and
cupolas of Westminster acquire the
magic and allure of the East and form
a fitting background to the twinkling
multicolored fairy lights of ST. James
Park.
One of the most difficult and intricate
tasks was the flood-lighting of Big Ben
and its tower. The great height of the
tower and the consequent distance and
angles of throw, together with the fact
that the London atmosphere has toned
down the stone of the tracery to dull
black, giving a very low reflection fac
tor, have made the job far from easy
one. and many experiments had to be
carried out before the flood lighting of
the tower was completely satisfactory.
It is interesting to note. in these days
OF electricity, that special steps have
been taken by the Illumination Com
mittee to show what can be done in
the way of flood-lighting with gas.
Whitehall, Victoria street, Pail Mall.
Trafalgar Square. Regent street and
many other famous thoroughfareS in
the metropolis are still lit by gas, and
Whitehall, at any rate. will be blaze
of light during the congress.

U. S. FARM BOARD
PRAISED BY LEGGE
Former Chairman Sees Agriculture
Saved From Dire Distress by
Stabilizing influence.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
KANKAKEE, Ill, August S1.-Alex-
ander Legge, former chairman Of the
Federal Farm Board. said yesterday
that the American farmer has succeed
ed in maintaining his position despite
the general depression largely through
the efforts Of the board he once headed.
Speaking before o soil and crop as
ISOLATION rally, he said the board, by
improving its system Of gathering crop
and market information from through
out the world, was making valuable
steps toward stabilizing the agricultural
Industries.
Statisticians, farmers. economists and
wheat SPECTATORS all were confused
about the world wheat situation until q
short while ago, Legge said He blamed
this confusion on the lack of knowledge,
declaring that it caused an overproduc-
ton Of wheat.
1T can prove" he said, that II the
first wheat stabilizing operations Of the
Farm Board of 1929 had not been put
through, farmers would have taken the
first and heaviest jolt of this depression,
just as they did in 1920 and 1921.
ALSO, If 1t had not been for the sec
ond stabilizing operation, announced
November II, $780, the disaster threat
ening wheat growers and those who
lent money on the crop would have
burst upon them with force and fury.
In all probability, the result would have
been a far worse depression than we
have thus far known

Blood Test Used to Detect
tuberculosis of Eye

BERLIN, March 13 CU.S0
Presence Of tuberculosis IN its In.
cipient stage may be determined
by a blood test similar in method
to the Wasserman test, 1t has been
discovered by Prof. Frederick Neu,
field, head of the Robert Koch
Institute, of Berlin.
The test enables physicians not
only to detect faint traces OF
tuberculosis, but to ascertain
whether or not an individual is
prone to tuberculosis Of any part
of the body.
tuberculosis Of Eye
Prof. Neufeld declares that es-
pecially in the case of tuberculosis
of the eye a reliable and quick
method of recognizing the disease
has been found in this blood test
He stated today,
1--WE mix few drops Of blood
taken from a persons body with
The Washington times., 1931-03-13

blood drawn from rabbits,
guinea pigs and oxen. The
color and general characteristics
of the mixture tell us whether a
person is suffering from tuber.
cuIOsis of any part of the body.
THE symptoms of tubercu.
lOsis of the eye closely resemble
those Of a number of other af
flictiOnS. Up to now, it was
often nearly impossible to de-
termine whether tuberculosis or
another afflictiOn was the cause
of eye trouble"

FLIES
 AWAY WITH 2
 YOUNG WOMEN
Lloyd Jarman Enjoys Flight to Skagway with
 Vancouver Maids

Nothing could be fairer and warmer said Lloyd Jarman, 16- year-old aviation enthusiast when told this morning he could have a free ride in the seaplane Petersburg to Skagway with two charming young women.
 When airplanes are in the Alas ka- Washington Airways hangar, the youth spends not only all day there, but sleeps there, too, at night. Polishing wings, wiping en- zines and pumping gasoline are de- lightful pastimes for him. When planes are away from the local base, he has time for visits and regular meals at home.
 Keeps Bicycle Oiled
 On such occasions, he keeps his bicycle well oiled, near the front door, so he can dash without delay to the aerial float when he hears the roar of a motor overhead.
 His hop today to Skagway, offer ed by A. B. Hayes, Alaska repre- sentative of the Airways, was the longest in the lads experience.
 Miss Lillian Goldwater and Miss E. F. Roberts, both of Vancouver, B. c. are the young women who made the flight from here to Lynn Canal They came north on the steamship Princess Alice, which ar rived in Juneau last Tuesday eve ming. They were charmed with the city and the mountainous sur roundings.
 Peaks, Glaciers, Waterways
 They chartered the Petersburg Tuesday evening and until dark kept flying over peaks, glaciers and waterways. They purposely miss ed the Alice when she sailed from here at midnight Tuesday. They continued their sightseeing by au- tomobile and airplane in Juneau and vicinity yesterday.
 My word We must visit Skag- way, the Gateway to the Klon- dike'," declared Miss Goldwater last evening, and forthwith arranged for a flight there.
 The plane left Juneau at 5 o'clock this morning. Skagway was reach- ed in about an hour, enabling the young women to spend the entire day there before boarding the Prin- cess Alice, which is scheduled to depart tonight from the Lynn Ca- nal port on her return to Vancou- yer.
 Besides the young women and Lloyd Jarman, James Carlson, taxi cab operator, made the flight to- day for pleasure. Young Jarman and MT. Carlson returned to Ju- neau on the plane this afternoon. The pilot was Robert Ellis and the Brian Harland. ! Soon after returning from Skag- way, the Petersburg left for Sitka, Goddard Hot Springs and Craig with five passengers. They were George A Nelson for Sitka; Mrs. L. w. Morrison for Goddard Hot Springs; Dr. H. c. DeVighne, Ralph ,. Mize and H. D. Stabler for Craig.
