marbles each on the first tee and
when the time came around for
Charlie to get his marbles there
were only, two left. So he took
them with the prediction that he
wouldn't need more than that.
And did he make good? At the
ninth he handed Fowler-the
bookkeeper-15 marbles, with the
remark: Here you are, Ralph, l
won't need any more going in,
Credit me with 13 marbles"
And the strange part of it is he

Many unusual documents are
received by the new emergency

but perhaps none is more anus
ing than an application received
recently by the Home Owners
Loan Corporation.
The application form calls for
photographs Of the property on
which a loan is sought, setting
forth that the pictures must

the phraseology of the require
ment, apparently thought the

his application were two photo

Across the bottom Of one Of

z ARMY PILOTS
BRAVE DEATH
To SAVE SHIP
Filters Refuse to Bail Out of
Plane Crippled in Air;
Land Safely Here

Two Army fliers risked their
lives-and won-to save the Gov
ernment $4,000, it has been
learned.
The story Of the two airmen's
brush with death was related at
Boiling Field after they had pi-
loted their disabled plane nearly
100 miles to a safe landing at the
airport.
While flying the plane to Wash
ington from Dayton, Ohio, where
the craft had undergone wind
tunnel tests, the brace wires con-
trolling the tail surface broke,
causing the tail to dangle from the
plane. And, although they would
have been justified in "bailing out, "
they agreed to continue the jour
ney with the crippled plane. They
tore up a complete set Of maps
writing notes to each other during
the hazardous trip, the two men,
Lieut.. T. A. Sims and A. H. John
son, reported.
The last 500 feet of altitude was
the most nerve wracking, they re-
ported, for if the tail of the plane
had dropped off, crash would
have been unavoidable, and para
chutes would have been useless.
After the landing at the airport
the tail did drop off.
Army officials hailed the two
men as heroes and marveled at
their skill in landing the disabled
craft.

Move to Merge D. C. Bureau

DR.. William c.. Fowler, head OF
the District Health Department,
today declared that neglect by his
department was not responsible
for increases in tuberculosis deaths
in Washington.
DR.. Fowler described charges to
this effect as part of a movement
to have the local Health Depart
ment taken over by the United
States Public Health Service. He
said:
"A number of years ago, when
I had been in office only few
months, an effort was made to
have the United States Public
Health Service take over the
District Health Department. 1t
utterly failed.
OPPOSES MOVE
There is now another we'll

because l oppose the taking over
Of District agencies by the Fed
eral Government. am a Wash
ingtOnian."
The health officer also denied
chat his department has refused
assistance Of the health service
in fighting tuberculosis here,
adding that the Federal agency
never had offered any help.
One Down, One Up
In reply to charges that the
death rate from tuberculosis is
rising here, DR.. Fowler produced
records for the past two dec
ades which show general down
ward trend in the tuberculosis
death rate among members of
the white race. The colored
death rate, however, is rising.
The local death rate is in
creased by deaths of persons
brought here from other places
to Federal hospitals, DR.. Fowler
believes.
He pointed out that patients
from all over the country are
brought to Mt. Alto, Walter
Reed, Naval Hospital, st. Eliza
beth'S and the Soldiers Home.
Listed From District
When a patient in one of these
institutions dies, DR.. Fowler said,
the death is listed to the Dis
trict, regardless of where the
patient is from.
DR.. Fowler described the pres
ent attack on his department as
a movement both inside and out
side the District branch of the
American Medical Society to
wrest health affairs from the
local Government and place it
under Federal control.
