CHEMISTS SEEK
SAFETY SIGN

Something like the skull and
crossbones, which denotes poison
and is so recognized by humanity,
Is being sought by chemists to
denote "flammables" and "vola-
tiles"
This information was impaired
to the Chemical Section Of the
National Safety Congress today
at Wardman Park Hotel by
Warren N. Watson, secretary Of
the Manufacturing Chemists ASSo-
citation, Of washington, in an
address on "Safe Handling Of
Chemicals"
Mr.. Watson went into detail
about the hazards Of handling
chemicals and stressed the use Of
warning symbols, poison labels,
regulation Of color and odor and
taste and manuals Of instructions,
which have been developed for
safety to the public. In this
connection, he said:
"The outstanding example Of
the symbol is the skull and
crOsSbOneS. In the mind Of the
general public this is associated
with such highly toxic poisOnS
aS Paris green and Strychnine.
Careful study shows that for
many people who disregard
poison labels and instructions,
the skull and crOSSbOnes is an
effective warning. This may
appear to be q commentary on
human lazineSS, but we must
deal with the facts and not
theories in safety practice.
"The skull and crCSsbOnes
occupy an important part in
our social structure and efforts
to extend their use to relatively
harmless or harmless products
can only result in public indif-
ference to this important SYM
boil and tend to destroy its
warning value.
"In recognition Of the value
Of . symbol as an element Of
warning we are now developing
q symbol for "fIammabIeS"
along the lines Of q scarlet
red flame and considering the
development Of q symbol for
'VOlatiIeS'"

ROOSEVE[TS|
STARTS ROW

Big Roosevelt and Garner signs
on the new Masonic Temple at
Tenth and U Streets Northwest
have come down. and some differ
ence of opinion exists as to the
reason for their removal.
Mack d. Rowe ,Staunch RooSe-
welt partisan, who organ IS
Roosevelt clubs and has an office
in the building, put out. the signs,
one on u Street and the other
on the penthouse, visible from
Fourteenth Street.
John T. RiSher, rental agent,
who admits that he favors Hoover,
took them down.
The signs were exhibited just
one day. Then a Hoover group
which formerly had its headquar-
ters in the Whitelaw Hotel moved
into the building, and the signs
were taken down.
Rowe attributed the removal
Of the signs to RiSher's political
sympathies, and said the Roose-
Velt men are watching to see
whether Hoover sign goes up on
the building.
RiSher said today no RooSe-
velt organization, as such, had
quarters in the building, though
Rowe had an office there, and
that the sign on the U Street
side was q menace to persons in
the street below.
Risher said his political views

IN surveying his pitching plans for
i next season, Bucky Harris, manager
Of the Detroit Tigers, admits freely
he Is counting heavily on Elon Ches-
ter (ChieD Hogsett, powerfully framed
Indian lefthander. to do full share
OF regular duty, and on the strength of
his performances during the 1882 cam
pa1gn, base ball observers readily con-
cede that the Tiger pilot is not apt
to be disappointed.
During the early part Of the last
season Hogsett was used principally
for relief purposes, but as the race
wore on and some of the other Tiger
hurlers began to show signs of the
strain in keeping the club battling
fer first division berth Harris grad
ually increased the number of regular
assignments to his Indian stalwart
forth as pitcher of unusual promise
and dependability. In all, the Chief
won II games and lost 8.
Hogsett Is a full-blooded Cherokee
Indian and when he was with the Mon
treal club some of the Iroquois took
him into their society, giving him the
name Of "Ranantasse," which means
Strong Arm" The cognomen fits him
admirably. for he is a powerful fellow
standing 6 feet inch and weighing
zoo pounds. and there appears to be
no limit to the endurance Of his mighty
left arm.
The chief was born in Brownell
Kans., November 3. 1908, and spent
some time at Bethany College in Ne
braska before entering professional
base ball. His first contract was with
independence In 1925. and a few
months later he joined Cushing. Also
that same season. Hogsett was pur-
chased by Toronto and turned over to
Fort Worth in 1926.
He spent most Of the 1927 season
with Decatur and Wheeling. and the
following year found him with Evans

Tigers, who released him on option to
Montreal for the 1929 season. Re-
called at the close of that race. he put
