IN NEWS VENTURE
National Officials Praise
Opening Federal Build.
ings to Dealers.

A group Of Washington blind men,
who heretofore have been dependent
upon others for at least part of their
support, have been launched upon
careers of economic independence
through concessions granted them to
sell newspapers and other periodi-
Gals in the vestibules and corridors
of Fedora! buildings.
Less than a week ago, Arno B.
Cammerer, director of the Office Of
Public Buildings, Parks and Reser-
vations, granted a request submitted
by Ralph H Campbell, executive sec
retary of the Columbia Polytechnic
Institute for the Blind. to permit
blind men to establish stands in 16
Capital buildings.
Yesterday the men met at the in
stitute's headquarters and gleefuliy re-
ported successful fist weeks busi-
ness. For many of them it was their
first opportunity in years to handle
money and to buy things from stores.
That success has encouraged friends
of the blind to seek to broaden the
plan and if possible, extend it into
other cities where there are Federal
buildings. AS result of the an
ncuncement of the pan here. the in
stitute has received inquiries from
cities as far north as Boston and
west as far as Cleveland.
Ofhcials of the institute feel this
has been the first real concession
made to the blind by the Govern
ment, and with it the cause for
mendicant blind men has been re-
moved There no longer exists a
reason in Washington for blind men
to ask aims on the streets, for now
they have the opportunity to 60 into
business for themselves and become
self-supporting.
AS a result Of Mr.. Cammerer's con-
cession to the request of the institute,
Mr.. Campbell has received letter
of commentator from Herman H.
Immeln, president of the American
Association of Workers for the Blind,
who is himself blind. He thanked
the institute and F. S. Hufty and
Harry P. Jones of the Vocational Re
habilitation Service, who first sug-
gested the newsstand plan.
Mr.. Immeln is also head of the
New York Association for the Blind
and in that capacity gained 400 con-
cessions from the city for newsstands
near the subway kiosks of New York.

IeSCent Serum"

stated, there have been 3,549 cases of
measles here since January l, and COG
of these were reported during the last
week. Only $50 cases were reported
during all 1888. and only four of
these proved fatal.

used at Children's Hospital is made
from blood donated by boys and girls
who have recovered from the disease.
approximately 25 children responded
to an appeal made Thursday night,
and DR.. H. j. Starr. staff physician
at the hospital, announced yesterday
that additional donations were being
declined with thanks.
Cases Generally Rejected.
Ordinarily, he pointed out, the hos
pital does not accept measles cases
The measles victims under treatment
there now, however, were admitted, he
said, because of crowded conditions at
Gallinger Hospital.
The serum, he said, has brought
encouraging results" Childrens is
one Of the few hospitals using the
serum, which is said to build up i'm
munity in the blood.

Steel Rate Dips.
Point In Week

Steel operations for this week
are estimated at 1872 per cent by
the American Iron and Steel In
stitute from Geographic advices
received from it's members, a de.
cline of / point, or Al per cent,
from the 24.2 per cent reported a
week ago.
The rate OF 1874 per cent re.
ported month ago is the lowest
for the industry so far this year.
Just preceding the establishment
of the low level, operations had
declined for seven consecutive
weeks. after which there followed
three weeks of successive gains.
The drop in operations this
week is not considered of partic-
ular Importance in the steel IN
dustry. The opinion in the indus
try is that operations in the final
quarter, which started yesterday,
will be considerably above the
average rate for the second quar-
ter, which never reached 30 per
cent of capacity.

THORPE SCORES
SOCIAL PLAN

NEW YORK, Oct. 2.-Proposals
OF ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS protec-
ton of all the people of the Ma.
ton against unemployment, sick
ness and old age we're scored yes
terday by Merle Thorpe, editor of
Nations Business, in an address
before the Insurance Advertising
Conference at Rye, New York.
Such a course, said Thorpe,
would be providing an easy living
for the incompetent and lazy at
the expense of the industrious
and thrifty. Thorpe asserted:
Gust now we hear promises
of politics to give every man
security against unemployment,
sickness and old age. 1t appeals
to all, rich and poor, high and
low. 1t takes a persuasive voice
indeed to get hearing as TO its
practicality; much less as to the
danger involved. Such govern
ment guarantee will impair and
may even destroy this voluntary
institution, and in the deStruc-
ton there will go something
more valuable, the spirit back
of that urge to provide for one
self. Even if it were practicable
for the political organism to do
thiS-which / dOubt-the dollar.
and-cent cost would be insig.
nificant compared with the loss
of incentive for thrift, self de
pendence, and obligation to
family, which would inevitably
follow.
SAYS THRIFTY MUST FAY
81 regret to report that there
is a growing tendency every
where to shove responsibility
onto other shoulders, to contend
that society owes each man, re-
CARELESS of his own effort, an
easy living, and to expOund the
soft philosophy that by right,
each of us, regardless of foolish
mistakes, rash speculation. in
competency or plain laziness,
should be maintained by the in
duStriOuS and the thrifty"
Thorpe pointed out that more
than six millions of people in this
country "save and sacrifice to
guarantee such independence, and
is provided by life insurance, and
that they have set aside % bill
lions of savings in insurance to
protect them in the event of
death, sickness, accident and old
age, and to reimburse them for
losses due to fire and other cas-
ualtieS.
