 Alaska was brought to the fore last week through much news paper publicity given at Cabinet dinner for President and Mrs. Hoover and other distinguished guests, by Secretary of the Inter for and Mrs. Wilbur. The latter had made a trip to Alaska last summer and has since been high ly enthuSed ovr the intriguing charm of the Northland, and when she planned the reception dinner at the Mayflower Hotel, the rooms were arranged with an Alaskan setting and coloring of unusual beauty and originality. The walls were banked with ced- ars, spruce and every variety of evergreen native to the country, giving the effect of a virgin for est; and silhouetted against the trees could be seen caribou, white fox, a score of eagles in flight and other animals and birds native to the country, even to giant polar bear afloat on cake of ice.
 The very attractive dining table was tribute to the interest dis played by the President and Sec retary Wilbur in the affairs of Alaska. The immense rectangular table was entered by scene of the far North, with snow-capped Mount Mckinley towering above miniature Alaskan village nest ing on Paxton Lake.
 Small log cabins, caches on stilts for holding provisions, groups of Eskimos, with brown bears and husky dogs sleeping on the banks of the Copper River, with great mines in the distance, lent local color. Totem poles were scattered about the room and there was a model n miniature of the Alaska Railroad, with tiny airplanes scattered about, with herds of deer grazing in the moss which covered the valleys. Trap pers, fishermen, miners, and the varied types peculiar to the North were scattered about.

Times staff Photo

FALLS CHURCH, Va, Jan. 26.
Charles E. Gage. chairman of the
special committee appointed to
look into the water situation
here, today announced that the
required number of signatures
have been secured on the petition
calling for another election on
the question of issuing bonds for
the purpose of installing a mu-
nicipal water system. The petit
ton will be presented to the
town council tonight at its regu-
lar meeting.
The petition, calling for the is
Suance of bonds to the amount
of $125,000 does not differ from
the petition presented last month
and which was defeated in the
election on January 13 when the
freehold voters failed to turn out
in sufficient numbers to make
the election a valid one.
It Is the opinion of the COM
mittee, however, that the major
ity of citizens here are in favor
of the bond issue and will visit
the polls in large numbers if
another election is called.

PRESIDENT SHIP
BEING RAISED

HILADEL HIA, Jan. 26
G.NS0.-Work Of raising the for
mer presidential yacht Mayflower,
whose bow was submerged in the
waters of the Delaware River at
the Navy Yard here after a fire
in the officers quarters, was to
60 forward at once.
The fire, believed to have been

fought by Navy Yard and city
firemen for three hours. The
bow, opened by the flames, and
weighted down with water,
finally sank.
Two men were injured in fight
ing the fire. Their condition was
reported good yesterday.
If ships were humans some
claim they are-it might even be
suspected Of being a suicide
There was sufficient grounds.
For the portly old vessel which
worked its way up from private
yacht to subsidiary fighting craft,
to actual combat, and finally to
be appointed yacht Of Presidents
had suffered degrading insults
in the past few years.
She was damaged by fire dur
in the Harding administration,
robbed of her prided elevator
during the Coolidge adminiStra-
ton, and thrown over as too old
for service by President Hoover.

BLUE LAW WAR
LAUNCHED IN
BALTIMORE
Police Start Drive Against
Stores on Eve of Trial
Regarded As Test Case

BALTIMORE, Jan. 26.-The
war to enforce the blue laws re-
quiring Sunday closing, was
opened by the police here yester
day on city-wide front with the
delicatessen stores being the prin
cipal objectives in the scattered
sectors.
The hastily planned attack
assertedly caught the defenders
off guard as it occurred on the
eve of a trial which had been
regarded as a test case. 1t had
been prompted, officials say, by
advertising of Sunday sales at
some of the stores.
Bundles Scar led
Blue-coated officers, according
to reports which were sent in BY
beleagured proprietors and Gus
toners on the Baltimore street
fronts, inspected packages car
ried by customers.
In a number of instances also
they are said to have attempted
to explain to seller and buyer just
what can and what canont be
bought and sold on the Sabbath
Residents Resentful
In one instance a proprietor Is
said to have been informed that
he could sell only milk. One
irate customer resenting the in
sistence of an officer, snatched
his package from the policeman
and fled down the street.
Apartment dWellers and other
regular customers of the delica-
tessens have expressed keen in
terest in the unraveling of the
tangled skeins of the blue law.
They are apprehensive that their
buying and living habits may be
radically disturbed.

SURE TY.
IS FOUGHT

RICHMOND, Va, Jan. 26.-Op-
position to State insurance fund
for workers now protected by the
workmen's compensation law was
voiced by industrialists and insur-
ance actuaries at meeting here
of the commission created by the
1880 General Assembly to study
the question and report its lind
ings in 1882.
Employers Give Views
The position taken by Ralph
Taggart, of Big Stone Gap, presi-
dent of the Virginia Manutac-
turers' Association; Lee Long, of
Dante, coal operator; Ryland
Camp, of Franklin, lumber mill
operator, and others was that the
State of Virginia should not go
into private business.
Labor Leader FavOrs Act
R. T. Bowden, representing the
Virginia Federation of Labor, said
his organization favored State
insurance fund. He said:
workers are the ones who
get hurt. Our position is that
we want to secure the largest
compensation ut the least ex.
penSe to the employer. Several
States, notably Ohio, have lower
State insurance than employers
have to pay for empIOye prOtec-
tion against injury in other in
Surance FORMS"
Those opposing a State inSur-
ance fund said present conditions
under the workmen's compensa-
ton law are proving satisfactory.

j, s. OPENS WAR
ON HIGH ADULT
DEATH RATE
Problem of Adult Mortality
Studied by Public Health
Service; Fight Heart Disease

Adult mortality has become a
matter of serious concern, and
looking to study Of this problem
the U. S. Public Health Service
has arranged for investigation
and research which may add a
few years to the normal span Of
life.
Heart Disease Studied
Much has been accomplished
to reduce infant mortality, but
little attention given to the life
of the adult. Plans Of the public
Health Service contemplate a
particular study of heart disease,
the major cause of death. AS
sistant Surgeon General L. r,
Thompson said today:
II think we have increased
the span of life, but we have
done it from the standpoint of
the child, and not from the
standpoint Of the adult, noRe
of us adults who have passed
out fOrtieth year have any
reason to believe we will live
any longer than our ancestors.
In fact, probably we are not
going to live as long, If we get
down to facts"
DR.. Thompson said that heart
disease is fundamentally a major
cause of death. The medical
profession has done little work
in the study Of the causes OF
heart disease, he observed, add
ing:
Must Study Adult
eve should begin paying at
tention now to adult mortality.
AS the infant mortality is be-
coming less of a problem the
adult death rate increasingly
is brought to our notice.
"Our attention has been
called to the relationship be-
tween diseases of the tonsilS
and the development of heart
disease in earlier life, infec-
tions from teeth and many
things like that. We should
begin our study of the de-
generative diseases of adult
life and take up first the cause
of death from heart disease"
The 1882 budget, sent to Con
gress last December, provides an
appropriation for $4,000 for the
heart disease study. It was ex-
pected that wide cooperation
would be obtained from the pri-
vate medical profession.

Washington Fashions
BY Wilma La Vile

We've sighted a cloud on fash
ions horizon, as yet no larger
than a mans hand, but it will
probably assume more imposing
proportions as the season gets
under way. We've already felt
a slight hale from it, in the
sprinkling of polka dots shown
even now in the Washington
shops, and we will see more of
them.
From Confetti to SaucerS
No wonder they are smart,
there's so much pep about a
polka dot, something so youth
full and alive. They are coming
in in many different sizes. Dots
the size Of confetti, the size of
a silver dime, a half dollar and
almost as big as the saucer of
a demi-tasSe cup. They will be
shown not only in frocks, but
in accessories, hats, ScarfS, bags
and combined in frocks with
PAdlIl IIldUCl ldlos Icy WILL 44NdA
the rainbow in colors, light dots
on dark backgrounds, and vice
versa, dark on light.
Worn by Edwina Booth
One reason we take the
prophesy for dots seriously is
the good looking frock in this
sketch; maybe we are prejudiced
in it's favor because it is worn
by dainty Edwina Booth, who
is one of the stars in Trader
Horn" Any way polka dots
bear watching!
Miss LaVille will gladly answer
any questions concerning the
vogue for polka dots or any
fashion questions. Call District

GLANDS
Foul the Seal p!. -.

If the tiny glands in your scalp have
fallen asleep out! The consequences
won't end with just dandruff! 1t may
take a year or more for the pore-flth to
reach the surface.
Scaly scaLps that make you turn
your eyes away, began with "Just
a little dandruf."
The next commonest sign of gland
trouble is when the color of ones hair
begins to fade, orbecomes streaked.
There is only one thing that will ever
help heads in this state of stagnation:
you must stimulate the tiny glands that
feed the hair and give it color. Massage
will do this. Use the fingers. Dip them in
The Washington times., 1931-03-19

Danderine-to cut through the crust
and penetrate the pores and do this
daily. One treatment will settle the dan
druff. One week will find your scalp as
clean and wholesome as a little girls.
The second week will have the glands
wide-awake and working. That is when
your hair begins to live and begins to
thrive and grow!
Remember, it's massage that does it.
And it's Danderine that gets through to
the glands. Just rubbing something on
the head won't stimulate lazy glands!
Get bottle of Danderine today, start
your treatments tonight, and see what
happens when those lazy glands come
to life! Your druggist has it.
