HAY FEVER ENDED
IN MODERN HOME
Pollen Eliminated by Changes
In Method of Air
Filtration.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, November 25.-In the
classified columns of the near future,
according to Dr., William H. Welker
biochemlst, advertisements like this
may be common:
For Rent; HCme, all modern con-
veniences. Hay fever-proof."
Discoveries at the University of ILL.,
nois Research Hospital here, where
scientists from the school of medicine
are working with those of the State
Department Of Welfare, have brought
air filtration processes today to the
point where more than 90 per cent OF
hay fever causing pollen can be eliml-
mated, he said
The perfected process was described
by DR. Welker. who has been in charge
of the experiments for more than
three years Aiding him are two medi-
Rappaport.
Filter Speed Slowed Up.
Our big problem" said DR.. Welker,
'waS to develop a filter that would be
100 per cent efficient for the removal
of pollen. We have practically solved
that problem by slowing up the speed
with which the air Is forced through
the filter. At h gh velocity the pollen
penetrated the filter like bullets"
Filtration affords relief to virtually
al hay fever and pollen asthma sUt-
ferers confined in the filtered air, but
does not effect cure, DR.. Welker eX-
planned.
Air filtration undoubtedly will be
an important consideration III housing,
industrial and business construction Of
the future. ConSerVatively speaking
there are more than two million hay
fever and pollen asthma sufferers in the
United States There is no reason why
eventually all buildings should not be
hay fever proof.
We have found that hay fever VIC
TINS suffer only when exposed to pollen.
Nest victims improved immediately
upon entering the air-filtered ward.
The average time for obtaining maxi
mum relief was 23 hours after entering
the ward. Of more than 800 patients
in the ward only % per cent failed to
obtain relief
The filters can be manufactured in
sizes ranging from window filter,
which can treat air for one bed room,
to one large enough to treat all the air
IN a skyscraper or auditorium, DR..
Welker said.
Severe Cases Tested.
All patients subjected to the filtered
air treatment have been severe cases,
he explained. This year the patients
were permitted in the ward only at
night.

IA from lie Noir and their brief
4 q meeting ended. Sonya relocated
her canoe and crossed to camp.
LIE Noir walked back through the will
lows to his own craft and vanished to-
ward the mainland shore.
After they had gone Curt got up,
shaky and cold, with that terrible cold
ness which had come over him when he
first heard Paul's report. AS he stared
at the dark channel which had swal-
lowed her canoe, all his previous queS-
tionS about her trip, all the puzzling as
poets of 1t which had so baffled him,
became brutally. clear.
In Victoria she had known Karakhan,
lad been attracted by his brilliance and
had fallen under the spell Of his mag
netic personality, as Helen Mathieson
and others had done. And after his
disappearance, she had started search
ing for him, to be with him again.
Somehow she had found out in a
general way where he was hiding and
had persuaded Ralph to come North
with her. The pretense OF the scien-
tific work, her passionate determine
ton in the face of every danger, her
was clear enough to him now. He un-
derstood, too, why she had STAYED him
of. 1t was friends act to save him
pain.
Stumbling through the brush to the
island tip, he swan back across the
channel, took off his clothes and wrung
them out and dressed again. He fun
bled in his pockets and got out Paul's
copy OF Sonya's letter. He still dreaded
to read it, but now he was driven to.
In spite of what he had heard, his hope
OF her integrity still fiickered.' She
might have he'd to the breed.
He made fold of blanket to hide
the glare of his fash and laid the let

and few stray words, 1t was all in
French. the courtly French of one edu-
Gated Russian to another.

task of black encouragement. No one

lice, could ever have followed your trail,
but knew you were acquainted with

lips sealed; and he told me, guardedly,
that you were hiding somewhere in The

When Paul lay down in his tent that
night, he intended to go back out and
join his partner as soon as Curt re-
turned from the willow island. But two
days and nights of guarding the camp
all alone had tired him more than he
realized, and he dropped of to sleep in
spite of himself.
1t was long after sunrise the next
morning when he woke up. He stepped
outside the tent and looked around. On

Paul took pleasure In turning on

about how much he knew.

padded north to rocky headland and
killed three hours by pretending to fish

POSTAL SERVICE
FURL0UGH ORDERED
Saving of $500, 900 Ex.
pected by Farley From En-
Is forced Pay|ess Leave.

The first step in the economy pro-
gram of the Post Office Department will
be the imposition of nine-day furloughs
in the postal service during the july
September quarter, which will save So
100000, Postmaster General Farley an
nounced yesterday.
The Postmaster General said also
that departmental workers also will bear
part of the burden of reduced expendi-
lures, but that the paylesS leave to be
enforced in this branch will await a
uniform policy to be laid down for ali
executive agencies by President Roose-
welt.
The nineday leave will be required
of all employees in the matchmaking
service, with the exception that rural
carriers. who cannot be spared from
work will have their equipment allow
ance cut from 4 cents to 1.176 cents
per mile.
The Post Office plan was covered in
executive orders approved by President
Roosevelt before departure for his vaca-
ton.
Depends on Business Trend.
Whether the economy program will
have to be carried out in the postal
service beyond the end of September,
which customarily covers a period of
light mailings, will depend on the trend
of business, Mr. Farley said in state
ment explaining the departments s
action.
Mail volume is now picking up" he
continued. THE postal revenues are
increasing and it is the departments
hope that by the end of September,
business conditions throughout the
ty,ayN a.
again to require a full complement OF
postal employees to handle the work and,
of course, eliminate the necessity for a
continuation of the furloughs. II con-
ditions do not justify abandonment OF
the furloughs all together, We certainly
expect that we can at least reduce 1t
somewhat after the September quarter"
In explaining that the departmental
furloughs will be fixed after President
Roosevelt issues an executive order, as
provided by law, to permit of uniform
system of application, Mr.. Farley said:
Await Regulations.
eve know of no reason why depart
mental employees should not share in
the furlough system with employees in
the field But when it comes to per-
sonnel matters the Post ONCE Depart
ment is not strictly speaking a part of
the postal service, which has always
been dealt with by Congress as a sepa-
rate establishment. The Post Office
Department is a part of the general
departmental service in the District Of
Columbia, along with the State Depart
ment, the Treasury Department and
the other executive departments and
independent establishments. For the
present, therefore, We have withheld
action with relation to the application
of the furlough system to employees in
the departmental service pending the
issuance of rules and regulations by the
President looking to uniform action by
the various executive departments, as
the law requires"
The furlough plan is being carried
out in the department in lieu of dis
missals
The Postmaster General again called
attention to the fact that ordinary
causes eliminate about 5000 post ofice
workers annually and this, coupled with
the leave plan and other economies, is
expected to keep everybody at work.
