OPENS new DRIVE
ON TUBERCULOSIS
Commissioner Reichelderfer 1nau-
gurates Early Diagnosis
Campaign.

Announcement of the sixth annual
Early Diagnosis campaign OF the local
Association for the Prevention of Tu-
berculosis was made by Commissioner
Luther H. Reichelderfer in radio
address broadcast from WRC today.
The campaign will be carried on during
April, as part of Nation-wid edu-
cational movement sponsored by the
National tuberculosis Association, DR..
Reichelderfer said.
While the effort is to be directed pri-
marily against tuberculosis, the speaker
explained, it will in effect be public
health campaign tending to lessen all
forms Of disease. The purpose of the
campaign, he said, will be to discover
every possible source of tuberculosis
infection and to provide for examina-
ton by a competent physician or at a
public clinic of all who have been ex-
posed to the disease.
Special efforts will be made, the Com
missioner declared, to provide medical
examination and care for children, in
the chest.
Records Of the District Health De-
partment, DR.. Reichelderfer said. show
the number of deaths from tuberculosis
has risen in Washington each year since
1929 and the number of such deaths
has increased from $40 in 1880 to 500
In 1882"
He said we are likely to feel the
after effects Of the economic depression
this year and during the ensuing years.
He declared it is false economy to cut
the provision for our various public
health services at such a time as this.
Special stress Is to be laid on the ex-
animation and care Of children during
the campaign and message is espe-
cially to be directed to the children Of
the high schools.

President Probably to Seek
Immediate Action in Con-
gress Tomorrow.
TREASURY SITUATION
HELD KEY TO CRISIS
Executive Would Be Empowered to
Cut Veterans Compensation
and Expenditures.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
President Roosevelt plans to ask the
new Congress. probably tomorrow, for
the broadest powers possible under the
Constitution to permit him to slash
Government costs. Immediate action
by Congress Is understood to be desired
by the Chief Executive
In divulging this proposal, high off,
Gals said Mr.. Roosevelt views the situa-
ton confronting the Federal Treasury
as the key to the credit structure Of
the Nation. He was represented as
determined to reduce expenditures to
within income
Seeks Veterans Fund Power.
Under the sweeping authority to be
requested, the President would be en-
powered to reduce veterans compensa-
ton and expenditures, which run nearly
S1,000.000,000 a year and constitute
one-fourth Of the annual budget. All
cases under the Veterans Administra-
ticn would be subject to review and
revision downward.
In addition, the Presidents request
Is understood to encompass reductions in
salaries, cutting statutory appropria-
tons, subsidies, the suspension of Ger
tain works and further power to abolish
or merge Government departments
Mr.. Roosevelt was represented as
willing to accept all responsibility the
Congress will give him in effecting
economies. 1t is understood he expects
5000 100000 to be saved annually
through the reorganization plan already
drafted by Lewis w. Douglas Of Ari-
IONA, the new director Of the budget,
under the economy provisions of the
TreasuryPost Office Department sup
ply bill enacted by the last Congress
These savings. though substantial, are
not only insufficient to fulfill the party's
pledge to cut Government costs Is
per cent, but inadequate to reduce ex-
penditure to within revenue.
Reorganization Already Begun.
Although burdened by the problems
OF the financial crisis, President Roose-
welt already has instituted reorganiza-
ton and curtailment Of Government &C
tivities. Abolition of many independent
commissions and bureaus, set up under
the Hoover administration, appears on
the program.
Liquidation Of the Farm Boards sta
biization activities, abolition Of the
Shipping Board by combining 1t with
the Navigation and Steamboat Service,
the Lighthouse Service, and the Coast
and Geodetic Survey, appear imminent.
Other activities understood to be
slated for curtailment, merger or aboli-
ton include the International Boundary
Commission, the American Marine
Standard Committee, the Inter Amer
lean Highway Commission, the Inter-
national Screw Thread Committee, Fed
eral Sterilization Board and the Wood
Utilization Committee.

Home First With Mrs. Dern

a n RS. GEORGE H. DERN. wife of
nH the new Secretary of War,
W. comes to washington with a
certain edge on the other
cabinet wives. For eight years
she was the first lady Of the State OF
Utah, and she is schooled in the bust
ness OF meeting people and talking to
them and engaging in the formal
aspects of official entertaining.
She is a tall, clear eyed, extremely re-
served woman, as definitely a product
of the West as a Villa Gather char
acter. She was born In Nebraska and
lived there until she married the young
mining engineer, and together they
moved to Salt Lake CitT. They set up
housekeeping and with the exception
of few hard years spent in the min
ing camp of Mercur they have lived
there steadily, moving into larger houses
as the family increased in size and
finally occupying the|executive mansion.
Mrs. Dern's interests are centered on
her husbands career and the future OF
her children. There are five Of them,
John, lawyer in Chicago. who is mar
ried and has an 8-month-old son;
William, who is working in Washington
in the Reconstruction Finance Corpora
ton; Mrs. Harry Baxter, who has two
children, Johnny, 5, and Joanna, 3, and
who Is going to live in Washington
with her parents; Betsy. a sophomore
in the University of Nebraska, and
Jimmy, freshman at Dartmouth.
Mr. Dern's energetic and varied
career has kept her on the jump. Be-
fore he became Governor of Utah he
worked in gold mines. in the banking
business, in canning and in dalrying.
She has been with him constantly. She
looks upon the years spent in the min
ing camp as the hardest, not only be-
cause of the pioneer quality OF the life,
but because some Of her children were
born there. She said she has never
been conscious of seeking any outside
interest for the sake Of q. occupation.
Encouraging her husband and creating
a home for him and keeping an eye on
the five vigorous boys and girls who
followed each other in fairly rapid sue
cession have kept her busy and con-
tent.
She likes to read and tries to reserve
enough time to do so. She Is fond OF
music, but the impression remains that
hobbies are not her bent. First comes
the family, with all its ramifcations,
and If there is enough time left over
then social activities and charities and
all unofficial pursuits may make their
claim.

WORD EMERGENCY
WIDELY FIGURED
Difference of Opinion Exists
as Bank Depositors
Seek Funds.

Among the few depositors who ap-
piled for emergency money at Dis
trict banks today, however, there was
a wide difference of opinion as to what
constituted an emergency"
There were at least half a dozen re-
quests for funds at one bank to repay
personal loans-all made with the ex-
PLANTATION, I've got to pay So-and-so
the five bucks I borrowed from him"
So-and-so had to continue to strug-
gle along without the money due him,
however, and so did the insurance
agent, the landlord, the doctor, the
dentist, the mortgage holder, the tax
extraordinarily everybody. n fact,
except the grocer, the druggist and the
coal dealer.
Just what is the emergency" was
the the. question the tellers put to their
Taxes Must Wait.
"The taxes on my home are due, and
I have to meet them," said a woman
who wanted to make a withdrawal at
the northeast branch Of one Of WASH
ington's largest banks.
I'm sorry, madam" was the reply,
but that isn't an emergency. If you
needed it for food, or fuel or medicine
We could give it to you. But taxes
will have to wait"
And so it went. Food. fuel and
medicine-they were the real emer-
gencies. Everything else could wait.
THE situation soon will be cleared
up" said one bank official, and many
OF the others concurred. Everything
is moving along satisfactorily; the
President is giving us action-real,
swift, satisfying action-and, until his
program is completed-maybe today,
maybe tomorrow-all we can do Is see
that nobody starves, freezes or goes
without necessary medicine"
A death in the family? Let the I'M
dertaker wait. He knows what the stu
and pay for it later.
s5-$25 Paid Out.
Under Clearing House Association
orders, banks were permitted to pay out
emergency money in amounts ranging
from IS to $25. Some of the banks
stuck to the minimum; others were
willing to allow the maximum. All,
however, required conclusive evidence
the funds really were required to meet
an emergency, and not merely to pay
So-and-So his flve-spot.
But requests for emergency money
were few. Some banks had none some
had only one or two, none had enough
to keep them busy.
And most of the people who have
asked for money" said one bank OH
cial, have been extremely reasonable.
They seemed just as well satisfied with
the small amounts we were able to give
them as they would have been If we'd
come across with all they asked for. I
tell you, it's q healthy Signl"

ROVER TO DECIDE
ON ENFORCEMENT
D. C. Policy Toward Liquor
Resorts Rests With
U. S. Attorney.

After spending several hours in dis
cussions of how to enforce the liquor
laws against Capital speakeasies. now
that Federal funds have been with
drawn from this activity, District Off
Gals finally decided today to do nothing
for the moment, except to refer the
problem to United States Attorney Leo
A. Rover. After long conference be-
tween Commissioners Luther H. Reich
elderfer and Herbert B. Crosby, with
department heads involved, it was said
that the Commissioners would abide
by whatever the United States attorney
wanted done.
Brings Up Question.
Maj. Ernest w. rown, superintendent
of police. brought the problem UP by
asking District Auditor Daniel j. Dono-
van whether it would be possible to
hire informers for working up speak
easy cases out of District funds. He
discussed the possibility of getting the
money from an appropriation for the
prevention and detection of crime"
This appropriation for the entire year
is S11, 700, of which not to exceed So 900
may be spent on certificate Of the
major and superintendent, who need
not specify in detail what the money
is to be used for. OF the $4,000 fund,
which is the one that would probably
be used for liquor buys, 81 ,403 re-
manned unexpended today.
This and other problems, however,
have not been definitely settled. Many
other questions came up, it is under
stood, and 1t was decided to let them
all remain open until Rover had spoken.
A conference with Mr.. Rover will be
arranged later.
Wishes to Be Followed.
The decision to put the matter up to
Rover, it was said, was made because
all liquor cases must be prosecuted by
the United States attorneys office. His
wishes, it was indicated, will be followed
as far as funds permit.
The District has no appropriation act
for the fiscal year which begins July
next, and there was some talk of in
serting an item in the bill which the
last Congress failed to enact for money
with which to pay informers. On &C
count Of wet sentiment in the present
Congress, however, District officials re-
gard it as very doubtful If such funds
would be appropriated.
Corporation Counsel william w. Bride
and Assistant Corporation Counsel YER
non E. West were summoned by the
Commissioners during the conference
today and it was believed that Bride
offered the suggestion to leave the de-
cision to the United States attorney.
