Proves Old Running Ability
In Chase after Alleged Thief
Capt. Richard Mansfield
of Marathon Fame
"Cets His Man.
Makes arrest in Petit
Larceny Case Near
the Union Market.

Police Capt. Richard Mansfield,
whose ability as a marathon runner
won him an enviable collection Of
medals and other trophies 25 years
ago, chased an alleged thief into a
state of exhaustion yesterday.
Mansfield, in plain clothes and on
his way home, dropped by Union Mar
ket, Fifth street and Florida avenue
northeast, to check up on reports of a
series of thefts. Colored men and boys,
Mansfield had been told, had been
stealing packages from the parked au-
tomobiles of marketers for several
weeks.
Mansfield had just parked his car
and was about to step out when he
noticed colored man removing pack
ages from other machines standing
nearby.
AS Mansfield approached the man,
the latter dropped his packages and
started running. The police captain,
who is commanding officer of the
ninth precinct, took out after him.
Through the market, across the Gal
laudet College grounds, up and down
streets and alleys, and over two back
fences the chase led, with the old
time 'marathoner" gaining ground all
the time.
Il was surprised to learn that I
could still take it," Mansfield said
later. Il must have chased the fellow
at least a mile before he finally
dropped from sheer exhaustion. OF

METHOD OF PICKING
WORKERS OPPOSED
Democratic Leaders Protest Nam.
ing of Former Hoover Employees
to Alcohol Division.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Democratic congressional leaders
protested at a conference with Sec
retary Morgenthau today against the
methods followed by the Treasury in
selecting employees for the beverage
alcohol division.
This came amid renewed efforts to
divorce political pressure from all
Federal agencies. A bill to that end
has been introduced by Senator
Byrnes, Democrat, of South Caro-
lima. The Senate yesterday voted to
outlaw politics in the extension of
Reconstruction Finance Corporation
loans to industry.
The conference grew out of asser-
tions by Senator McKellar, Democrat,
Of Tennessee that 1910 former Hoo
yer prohibition service employees had
been reinstated to the new division
and the entire list had been prepared
by a secret Republican" committee
of five Government officials and dis
cussed with the Civil Service Commits
sion.
Senator Robinson, the Democratic
leader, told newspaper men after the
conference "the method that has been
used in making selections for the pro-
! hibition service and the matter is still
under consideration" He refused to
60 into details.
McKellar has pending a resolution
before the Civil Service Committee
requiring all the reinstated employees
to stand merit tests, as well as those
appointed to the service in the future.

Firen,en Refuse
To Dry Up Cellar
DESPITE an Alarm,

Mrs. Bessie M. Linger, ITO Good
Hope road southeast, had q dry cellar
today-but the fact she turned in a
fire alarm yesterday, when the cellar
was being flooded by rain water from
a nearby storm sewer didn't have any
thing to do with It.
There was about inches Of water in
Mrs. Linger's cellar and it was rising
steadily, when she decided to call on
the Fire Department for assistance.
A telephone call did no good, how
ever. The Fire Departments response
to Mrs. Linger's request was, In effect,
that its business was answering fire
alarms. not pumping out flooded
cellars.
WELL" Mrs. Linger thought. "if it's
d fire alarm that they want, here
goes!"
She then walked to the nearest fire
box and turned in an alarm. In al
most no time at all the firemen and
their apparatus were there.
"But that didn't do any good" said
Mrs. Lnger's husband, Edwin o. Lin
ger, o salesman. When they found
out what was the matter. they left"
Later, however, the Lingers called
the Sewer Department, and a group Of
employees worked until after midnight
pumping their cellaF dry.

Engineers, Firemen and OIL
ers Walk Out at Two
Largest Concerns.
OTHER TRADES PROTEST .
STRIKEBREAKERS' USE
Agent for Men Who Actually
Make Product Declares Prac-
tice Must Cease.

Engineers, firemen and oilers at
Washington's two largest ice cream
plants went on strike for higher wages
last midnight, and walk-out Of other
trades was threatened today as a pro-
test against employment of strike
breakers to keep the factories in oper-
alton.
A strike of ice cream workers IN
four plants here, including the two
involved in the present walk-out, was
settled only two weeks ago.
The present labor trouble involves
the Carry Ice Cream Co. and the
Southern Diaries, although all local
ice cream manufacturing concerns pay
the same union wages. c. c. Callan,
business agent for the Engineers
Union, explained that Carry's and
Southern Diaries took the lead in a
wage cut a year and a half ago and
consequently the workers are hitting
at these two first in their battle for
better pay.
Deadlocked at S1.75.
The strikers first demanded a fiat
increase of IS a week, but then Of
fered to accept $3.50. Callan, who
met with representatives of the oper-
ators last night. said they offered a
81 increase, then $l25 and finally
SITS. There the parties stood dead
locked. he said, and the strike was
called.
The workers met this morning at
the Central Labor Union headquar-
tiers and decided not to bulge from
their position. Callan declared.
Meanwhile. c. B. McClosky. business
agent for the ice cream workers, the
men who actually make the ice cream,
threatened to call his men from their
jobs If the plants continue to operate
with substitutes taking the place Of
the strikers.
Oppose Strikebreakers.
This thing of employing strike
breakers has got to STOP" r. A. Dick
son. president Of the Central Labor
Union, declared this morning. we
are willing to negotiate. and it Is not
fair, when our offers are refused and
we strike, for the operators to put on
other men in our places"
The engineers now are paid So so a
day and the firemen $720. About
year and half ago the scale was
reduced by so cents a day to these
figures. Some time before that the
working week had been cut from six
to five days.

course, didn't let him know 1t, but
I was pretty tired, too.
Just before I caught him stum-
bled and fell, tearing a hole in my
trousers and skinning my knee. Once
or twice I was so tired I didn't think
I'd be able to make it, but thought
of the old days, when I used to run
from Washington to Baltimore just
for the fun of winning a medal, and
! told myself: 'Shucks. this is a
cinch. What's a mile or so to a guy
who's run 40 or more?' That way I
managed to keep going. but was pretty
glad when the chase was over"
Mansfield took his prisoner to the
ninth precinct station, where the man
identified himself as Charles McKin-
ley Washington, 36, of 642 Orleans
place northeast. He was charged with
petit larceny.

MODERN ART HELD
CULT Of UGL|NESS
Herbert Adams Addresses
Convention of Ameri-
can Federation.

Art has turned to a "cult of ugli-
ness and deformity," Herbert Adams,
nationally famous sculptor, declared
this morning at the twenty-fifth an
nual convention of the American Fed
Grafton of Art.
During the quarter century of its
existence. the federation has wit
messed "a veritable revolution in art"
he said
Explaining the nature of the revo-
luton, he said to his audience:
I'VE have turned from overliteral
representation to So-called INTEL
lectual creation of distractions. From
the pretty we have swung to the cult
Of ugliness and deformity. Unfor-
tunately, along with the sincere
searching and experimenting for some
thing better in art, something more
creative, more expressive of our own
time-commercial exploitation and a
love of new sensations on the part of
the oversophisticated have played
too prominent a part"
AS result of this change, he as
serted, the public is bewildered "and
no wonder" he added.
Adams spoke in reviewing the work
and history of the federation. He
particularly commended Miss Leila
Mechlin, who has been secretary of
the federation since 1918 and editor
of its magazine for % years. Miss
Mechlin recently resigned. In recog-
milton of her services a rising vote
of thanks was given today. She is
art critic for The Star.
"reminiscences of early days in the
federation were presented in mes
sages from Elihu Root, who was in
strumental in its founding; Ralph
Adams Cram and Henry w. Kent.
Miss Florence N. Levy of New York
spoke briefly of the organization s
history. Almost so letters or tele-
grams were read to the delegates.
These contained messages of greeting.

BUILDERS DISCUSS
STRIKE SITUATION
Carpenters Again Refuse
Compromise-PIasterers
May Walk Out Tonight.

The Master Builders Association
met early this afternoon to consider
the labor situation, as the carpen-
ters' strike went into its second week
and plasterers were threatening to
strike soon for a higher hourly wage
and a six-hour day.
Big builders who have contracts on
the Governments buildings in the
Federal Triangle were understood to
have been invited again to join with
the Master Builders Association in
their meeting to consider the prob
lens.
Reports were current in labor cir
cleS that some of the big builders
might break away from their infor-
NAL affiliation with the association,
but there was nothing definite early
today to confirm these reports. Most
Of these builders, according to labor
leaders, figured their bids when the
carpenters scale was $l1 a day.
Contractors, however, appeared to
be standing firm in their position
against paying $l.3712 cents an hour
to carpenters, especially for only a
six-hour day. The net gain to car
penters would be IS cents a day, rails
ing their pay from So to $8.25, and
this would also involve cutting off two
hours of work a day, and thereby
bring employment of more carpenters.
Contractors claim there is no justi-
f1cation for the increase to S1.371a II
hour from 81 an hour. and early today
were reoffering again their $40 an
hour for an eight-hour day.
The District Council of Carpenters
last night again refused to accept the
contractors offer of $1.10 and insist
still on S1.3712.
Meantime, the plasterers appeared to
be ready to strife tomorrow morning
unless their employers tonight agree
to the plasterers' demands Of an in
crease from s1.50 to SITS an hour,
with six-hour day.

Peculiarities of tuberculosis
Bacillus Being Studied Here
Whether There Is One Disease or MANY
With Somewhat Similar Manifes-
tatiOns Is Investigated.

SYMPTOMS of the advanced stages of
the disease might be overcome.
Another study of far-reaching sig
niflcance deals with the composition
and properties Of the newly discovered
phthioic acid, also a constituent of
the tubercular bacillus. It is one Of
the most complex acids known, con-
sisting of Sc carbon atoms. 1t exists
throughout the family but there are
striking differences between the prop
critics of that found in the human
bacillus and that of the other strains.
A striking property of this sub
stance is that when it is injected into
test animals 1t produces tubercular
nodules as readily as does the bacillus
itself. Since the acid is a dead sub
stance, however, these do not grow.
Cycle in Disease
Appears Probable.
There is considerable reason to
suspect the existence Of a "tubercu-
losis cycle" or a wave-like ebb and
f1ux Of the plaques virulence.
Such cycles are easily demonstrated
and long recognized in many mala-
dies. Measles is a typical example.
There are great "measle years." like
the present, to be followed by several
seasons of low incidence eliminating
in another peak. The period of such
a cycle is only three or four years.
That Of the tuberculosis cycle, If it
exists at all, may be more than a
century.
The difficulty of demonstrating 1t
is due to two reasons. First, there is
lack of accurate statistics for even
a single cycle. Second, there are all
sorts of disconnected movements of
the incidence rate within such a
cycle. Thus there was a peak in 1920,
following the disorganized living con-
ditions OF the World War period. But
there Is every reason to believe that
the present generation is living in q
low trough Of cycle. The middle Of
the nineteenth century may have rep
resented a peak. A temporary high
rate does not affect the general move
| ment.
Thus what may seem encouraging
progress in the conquest Of the
disease may be largely delusory.
Research Committee
to Report this Week.
The research committee will pre-
sent its annual report before the Ma
tional tuberculosis Society meeting
In Cincinnati this week.
The work for the year shows one
outstanding practical Development
the production of standardized
tuberculin which is used as a means

available to physicians has varied
considerably in its properties and
hence tuberculosis studies in different
parts of the country and by different
physicians have not been comparable
The substance was first discovered
in 1891, but there has been no way
of keeping it at constant strength.

animals, it reveals whether they ever

BY THOMAS r. HENRY.

The tuberculosis bacillus is a queer
bug"
Some of its peculiarities are being
uncovered by the intensive chemical
studies carried out under direction of
the Medical Research Committee Of
the National tuberculosis Association,
with headquarters here.
The latest research started by the
committee is to determine whether
there is more than one kind of ba-
cillus causing the white plague-that
Is, whether there is just one disease
or multitude of them with some
what similar manifestations. Tuber-
culosis acts differently on different
individuals. Some are hardly affect
ed at all. Others develop an infection
which runs a more or less mild
course for a long time. Still others
die in a short time, despite every
thing that can be done for them,
with the so-called "galloping T. b.
The committee members are not at
all sure whether this is due to a
difference in individual resistance or
to different varieties of bacili which
specifically appear exactly the same
In an effort to settle this point six
newly isolated human strains of the
organism have been obtained and
each cultivated until a large amount
is available. Each will be subjected
to intensive chemical analysis to de-
termine whether there are any min
ute differences which might account
for different behavior.
Up to the present differences have
been shown by chemical analysis be-
tween the different clearly marked
species" of the family which also
specifically were almost indistIng-
uishable. One causes leprosy. another
tuberculosis in cattle, another in
birds, and still another attacks GER
tain varieties of grass. Now the spe-
cialists have reached the point of
| trying to distinguish varieties.
Cause of High
Temperature Sought.
Members of the research commit
tee are on the track Of the causa-
tive agent of the daily high temper
ature curves of the advanced tuber-
culosis victim.
From the substance of the bacillus
has been isolated a very complex
sugar in combination with phosphor-
us and nitrogen which, when injected
into a sick animal, had a profound
influence on temperature and also on
the cortex of the adrenal glands
whose secretion also affect tempera-
ture and blood pressure The dit
ferent sugars which enter into its
substance have no effect when in
jected separately. The material 1t.
self has no effect on a well animal
The theory now under considers
ton is that when tuberculosis is far
advanced there is a large daily death
rate of the bacilh themselves and
that with their death their structure
is broken up in the body, releasing
the fever-producfng material.
II some method can be found to
destroy 1t one Of the most dist sssing
