John Jones, Thon as Smith" the
sergeant reads as he continues his roll
call. with each man answering to his

This would be the procedure in the
United States Army every morning, II
Secretary of War Hurley should decide
to transplant q Chilean custom to this
country. He Is considering doing so.
The Secretary has been informed by
Gen. Douglas Macarthur, chief of staff,
who lately has been reading about Chile,
that the memory of Bernard O'Higgins,
son of an Irish immigrant and apostle
Of Chilean liberty. has been honored for
more than 100 years in the national
army by the daily reading of his name
at roll call.
When the name of O'Higgins is
called every man loudly answers, Pres

M'CARL RULE HELD
5DAY PLAN PERIL
Small -SaIaried Workers Can
not Afford 0ne-EIeventh Cut,
Says Civil Service Head.

The five-day week in Government
service is doomed If Controller General
McCarl adheres to his ruling that the
pay deduction for this method Of ad-
ministering the legislative furlough
must be one-eleventh, instead Of the
one-twelfth which would be deducted
ordinarily, in the opinion of Thomas E.
Campbell, president of the Civil Service
Commission.
AS President Campbell pointed out
today, this difference would mean about
S12 a year on a salary of $500. and,
he says, small-salaried workers cannot
afford to take this additional slash.
The Civil Service Commission head
said he was anxious to continue the
five-day week in the commission, which
is one Of the few governmental agencies
to adopt this working schedule, but the
McCarl ruling, which he is not crltl-
cizing, stands as a barrier.
The controller generals decision on
the five-day week was handed down
concurrently with that holding that
legislative furloughs must be taken be-
fore administrative furloughs are be-
gun, on both of which matters an ap-
peal has been filed by the Civil Service
Commission. The controller general is
expected to answer early next week.

FUR SHOP PICKETERS
CITED FOR AUGUST IL
District Supreme Court to Hear
Question Of Unions Interfer-
ence With Business.

District Supreme Court Justice
James NJ Proctor today cited the Fur
Workers Union. local No. 70. of the
International Fur Workers Union, to
show cause August IL why it should
not discontinue picketing the store of
the Capitol Fur Shop, Inc, 1908 G
street, and other alleged interference
with the business Of the corporation.
Through Attorneys Simon, Koenigs-
berger. Young g. Brez. the merchant
corporation alleged that a strike was
illegally called by the union when it
claimed that its contract had been
violated by the employment of filter
and foreman who was not member
of the union The company claimed
the contract did not require that the
foreman be a union man. 1t COM
planned its business is being interfered
with by the picketers, charging that
threats of assault also have Eeen made
on the non-union men employed to
take the place of the strikers.
Irreparable injury will result to the
business, which has been in operation
IA years, unless the injunction is
granted, the bill stated.

King Cobra Blind;
Perilous Operation
Will Be Performed
Scales Cover Eyes of Zoos
Most VenOmous
Reptile.

The most dangerous of all surgical
operations-for the surgeon and not for
the patient-may soon be necessary in
the National Geological Park reptile
house. The big king cobra, most ven
omous OF all snakes and the pride of
the collection. has gone blind. Scales
have grown almost completely over his
eyes.
The only way to restore his sight,
says DR.. William M. Mann, the di-
rector, is to cut away the scales.
The operation has been performed
once before, by DR.. Raymond Dit
mars, at the Bronx Zoo in New
York The procedure; DR.: Mann n says:
small box as possible, so that 1t will
have little room in which to struggle.
Then it will be caught around the neck
by a special apparatus invented by
Headkeeper Blackburn, after which its
head will be pinned to the floor under
heavy wad of cloth. Then the scales
will be taken from its eyes with knife
He is delaying this operation as long
as possible, DR.. Mann says. because of
the danger both to those who assist at
the operation, for any one Of whom a
single bite might prove fatal, and for
the sake of the snake. He is afraid
that 1T would break It's neck IN ltS
struggles.
The big snake will not go under the
knife, DR.. Mann says, so long as it
eats regularly. 1t is one of the few
cobras that have consented to eat in
captivity, and thus far its blindness
does not seem to have affected its appe-
tite. 1t is likely. however, that the
creature soon will lose its desire for
food

Two gabboon vipers probably the
most frightful creatures on earth, ar
rived at the National Geological PARK
yesterday.
Nature seems to have gone to the
limit of her resources in creating some
thing horrible in appearance When she
fashioned these venomouS snakes OF
the West African desert, deposited at
the Zoo by Warren Buck, big game
hunter.
Their bodies are about feet long
and inches broad, surmounted py
enormous fiat heads, with loathsome
yellow eyes and horns over the nose.
The whole color pattern is an intricate
Interviewing of gray and purple, Dy
means of which the snake is practically
invisible in the twilight, when it comes
out to hunt, against the desert SANDS.
The snake remains buried in the sano,
with only the head protruding.
Rivals Cobra's Poison.
1t Is one Of the most poisonous OF
all snakes, rivaling the cobra. The
viper belongs to the same general family
as the American rattlesnake. 1t Sc
creteS enormous quantities OF poison
Its head is so large because OF Its Dig
poison glands. When it bites, its fangs
penetrate deeply into the victim, so tnat
it is certain death. Fortunately, 1t sell
dom bites a man.
Two years ago, according to DR.. wa
liam M. Mann, Zoo director. a keeper
in the st. Louis Zoo was barely
scratched on a finger by one OF these
snakes The man Immediately was
/ given an injection of the combined
American anti-venom, made up to COM
bat the poison Of the rattlers and cop
perheads, to whose family it belongs
| The effect Of this poison is to cause
great destruction of blood cells, and II
was found that the viper poison waS
doing the same thing. A
