WALLER REED PROBE
ISCL0SED INCIDENT
| Railure of Attendant to Receive
tAs.ss ssssotss .Sxas -
Veteran Injured in Fall
Subject of Inquiry.

An inquiry into the failure of Daniel
Doherty, Silver Spring, Md, World
War veteran, to receive treatment at
Walter Reed Hospital for an injury
was regarded as a closed incident to-
day at the surgeon generals Office
with the explanation that it was due
apparently to hasty action on the part
of Montgomery County police and a
hospital attendant.
American Legion officials of Mont
gomery County were informed in a
letter that treatment had not been
given Doherty, whose head was in
jured when he fell on the ice Febru-
ary 20, because the hospital attendant
had been told the man had already
been given first aid by Police Sergt.
Guy Jones, who had taken him to the
hospital.
Lieut.. Col. r. c. Macdonald, execu-
tive officer In the Office of the surgeon
general. said today he believed the
policeman had been too hasty" in
taking Doherty from the hospital and
the attendant was too quick, perhaps,
in taking it for granted the man had
been given sufficient treatment.
1T is the policy of the Walter Reed
Hospital to render first aid or emer-
gency treatment to every one, regard
less of status, creed or color, who
suffers serious injury in the vicinity
of the hospital" the letter to the
Legion officials stated.

RADIO MONOPOLY
CHARGED IN SUIT
Answer to R. c. A. Action
Says Ether Rights of the
World Are Controlled.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
TRENTON, N. j., March THE
Radio Corporation of America and
the General Electric Co. are charged
with controlling radio patents in vio-
lation of antitrust laws and court
DEGREES in 65-page answer to patent
infringement suits brought by these
companies in Federal court against
the Upgrade Sylvania Corporation Of
Massachusetts,, manufacturers Of radio
tubes.
The answer, which amended a
previous answer, was filed yesterday
by former Federal Judge Hugh Morris
OF Delaware, representing the Upgrade
concern.
Traces Agreements.
Morris traced a series Of agree
ments by which radio rights through
out the world, he said, were divided
by agreements among American, Ger
man, French, English and Dutch mo-
nopolies.
AAS dioo SllCu NY NlilIU,
he asserted, General Electric, West
tnghouse. American Telephone & Tel
egraph, Radio Corporation and other
domestic radio and communication
patents were consolidated. BY 1890
''the entire radio field, manufacturing
use and sale" was brought to a head
in the Radio Corporation of America,
he said.
The Radio Corporation licenses
third persons acceptable to it, by a
standard form, which provides for a
royalty of ~ per cent on the gross
selling price of the article. it was
charged, and lowers the royalty if the
hcensee uses parts purchased from
r. G. A.
S7,000,000 Taken Yearly.
r. c. A. has collected $1,000 900
annually from such royalties; each
licensee must pay minimum royalty
of 100000 a year and licenses for
manufacturing and sale of vacuum
tubes is S50,000 a year, the answer
asserted
Federal Court in Delaware re-
strained these companies in 1882 from
making agreements to restrict the
license freedom of any one of them,
the answer said. and the Upgrade
concern had been refused a patent
license from General Electric in v:o-
lation OF this decree.

BY a staff Correspondent Of The Star.


MCLEAN, Va. March Endorse
ment Of the Mclean School and Civic
League has been given the movement
for a new high-level structure to re-
place Chain Bridge. and the organiza-
tion has forwarded requests for a sur

The resolution adopted unanimously
by the league stressed nine reasons as
to why the present bridge should be
replaced. Among the reasons was the
fact that it Is inadequate to handle
the present volume Of traffic" It
stressed also that Spring rains threat
en- the integrity of the structure" and
the hazardous approach from both
sides.
The league requested Congress to
appropriate funds for a survey of the
situation, and for q study of plans for

BY the Assoel IA Press.
The purchaser Of American made
liquor now has the legal right to know
exactly what he Is getting.
Label regulations which become ef-
fective today. but which will not be
enforced here until April Z. divide
whisky into four classes:
1. Straight whisky. the product of
the same distillery in the same dis
till.ng season.
2. Blended whisky, a mixture of
straight whiskies or Of ethyl alcohol
and at least 20 per cent straight
whisky by volume.
3. Spirit whisky, a mixture of neu-
tral spirits (ethyi alcohoD and at least
5 but less than 20 per cent straight
whisky.
4. Imitation whisky, any distilled
spirit favored and colored to initiate
whisky.
Rules ON Gin.
The regulations for gin are In two
classes:
Distilled gin Is gin which is pro-
duced by distillation. and compound
gin Is that which Is . mixture of gin
essence or other flavoring materials
with neutral spirits.
The label on every bottle of these
liquors must indicate the classification
and the name Of the producer. II 1t
is straight whisky. the age or the year
and season of the distillation must
be shown. If 1t is blended or spirit
whisky, the label must show the age
or the year and season of distillati ton
Of the youngest whisky.
Must Declare CoIoring.
When neutral spirits are used, the
maximum percentage Of this alcohol
must be stated. Whenever any color
ing, blending. smoothing or favoring
materials are used In whisky, these
must be stated. and II the total amount
OF these materials exceeds 2l2 per
cent of the volume Of the whisky, the
nature of these materials must be
stated in detail.
Distilled gin must be labeled as such
and not as double or tripled distilled.
Other prohibitions include the use of
the word pure"
Guaranteed" warranted" or SINH
lar words cannot be used unless the
user makes bona flde guarantee that
can be enforced in a court of justice.

More Purchases Seen.
The Public Works Administrator,
has contracted to purchase more than
$500, 1000, 900 Of these securities in con-
nection with the extension of loans
and grants to finance local projects.
Ickes said last night:
"Today's sale establishes the broader
conception Of the public works theory
Of aiding employment to speed recov-
cry. p w. A. bought these municipa,
bonds when private finance failed to
function for qualified public works
Today's bids show that in the ir
stances involved private sources are
now aWaking and willing TO assume
their proper function. Therefore the
investment was returned to the regu-
lar market and by the procedure fol-
lowed the Government secured the
national benefits of the employment
involved and also sold the bonds il
bought for more than it paid for
them"

METAL CORROS|ON
VARIES IN NATION
Testing Materials Society
Sees Changes Depend
ent on Sections.

Metals exhibit varying behavior In
resisting corrosion. depending on the
section of the country where they are
used, it was indicated by data pre-
sented by several engineers this morn
ing at a regional meeting of the
American Society for Testing Ma
terials in the Wardman Park Hotel.
Approximately 500 technologists and
engineers were present. Meetings of
the society committees began Mon
day and will continue through Fri
day. They are studying steel. iron.
cement. petroleum products. rubber
and many other engineering ma
terials.
Alloy Changes Seen.
Tests indicate certain metals Of
fering best resistance to corrosion in
industrial or large city atmospheres
are surpassed by other metals when
expoSed to marine atn1ospheres. Nickel
alloys, aluminium and aluminium al
loys and tinshoW entirely different
properties when exposed near the sea-
coast than when in an inland city.
According to G. N. -Schram and
E. S. TayieEeoh, research experts, who
reported on extensive tests they have
made determining the A,oue 6f
rain and smoke on the corrosion of
iron and steel, there is no direct re-
lationship between the amount Of
rainfall and the amount of corroSion
of commercial irons and steels during
the exposure of one year. Seasonal
conditions at the time of starting of
tests are important controlling fea-
lures in corrosion along with air pol
luton and the presence Of condensed
moisture. .....
Failures Explained.
Explanation of failures of parts
made of different metals was sug-
gested in a paper given by c. L. Hip
pensteel. He said when certain metals
are brought into intimate contact
corrosion of one or both of them is
speeded. This is called "galvanic
action"
c. D. Hooker. chemical engineer. in
a paper on Outdoor Test Results on
MEMS" pointed out that as a result
of examining thousands Of test speci-
mems with and without copper, con-
tent Of copper in black iron and steel
sheets up to OILS per cent substan-
TALLY improved their corrosion re-
siStance to the atmosphere. But,
strangely enough, corresponding i'm
provements were not found in tests
under water.
A discussion Of the use Of zinc
coated steel sheets. for roofing brought
out the point that the worst cor
roding occurs at the lapover points
and. further, that if the thickness
of the sheets is increased their life
is extended more proportionately than
the increased thickness would seem
to indicate.
