Director of Bureau Says
Conditions Will Be I'M
proved if Possible.
GUARDS ARE REPLACED
IN BEATINGS CASES
Agrees to Inspect Food When Re-
quested-0nly "Drunks and
Disorderlies" Evicted.

CriticiZing the housing and food
system for transients, a committee
representing 800 recipients of relief
today presented to Arthur Rosichan,
director Of the Washington Transient
Bureau, a 12-point program of griev-
ances.
The delegation, headed by Lewis B.
Smith, New York Indian, was told
conditions would be improved where
it was possible.
In answer to the groups charge that
tranSients have been threatened with
eviction from the bureau for refusing
to enter work camps, Rosichan said
the bureau has no policy of refusing
aid to those who will not 60 to camp.
Only "drunks and disorderlies" are
evicted, he said.
Guards Replaced.
Many guards at the bureau have
been replaced and more changes are
scheduled, the director said, in re-
sponse to the charge that transients
have been beaten for infractions of
rules
The committee complained about
the quantity and the quality of the
food served at the relief quarters.
They were told by Rosichan that he
had encountered difficulty in getting
supplies through recently. The di-
rector agreed to inspect the food at
meal time when asked to do so.
Rosichan said there are no quarters
available for additional recreational or
laundry facilities. He said it would
not be possible to give each man a
change of clothing, but declared an
attempt would be made to provide
what clothing is needed.
Hospital Treatment.
The bureau is doing everything pos
sible to afford disqualification and
dental treatment for those who need
it. the director said, but pointed out
that Gallinger is the only hospital to
which transients may be sent.
Rosichan said he was not aware Of
many Of the complaints presented to
him by the committee. He invited
the group to send representatives to
his Office each Monday to air their
grievances.
The program presented to Rosichan
was drafted after an open mass meet
ing of transients at Red Mems Hall
yesterday.

MEDICAL BUREAU.
URGED FOR NEEDY
Clearing House Would Curb
"Grafting on Relief" Say
Physicians.

Creation of a central admitting bu-
reau in Washington for persons seek
ing free medical care, as a means of
providing efficient and speedy atten-
tion for those actually in need and of
eliminating "grafters on relief funds, "
has been Endorsed by the Medical So
ciety of the District of Columbia, it
was announced today.
Through the central bureau, which
would be operated in cooperation with
the Community Chest, would be han
died all applications made in the Dis
trict of Columbia for free treatments
at medical clinics or for free hospital
care.
While the primary object would be
to provide speedy and efficient medi-
cal care for those actually in need,
it was explained, one of the important
functions of the bureau would be the
elimination Of those who seek to i'm
pose upon public sympathy, consti-
tuting an ever-increasing burden on
public charity.
The proposed central admitting bu-
reau, stated by a trained personnel,

funds donated for relief work and in
better service.
THE medical profession desires to
render efficient service to the needy"
1t is said in a statement by the
medical society. THE contributing
public, however, does not wish to pay
bills for that ever-increasing num-
Der who, since the depression, are
taking everything they can get free
and keeping all their cash. Being
required to clear through the Cen
trail Admitting Bureau, most Of these
people will never even apply-the
same difference as in the numbers
OF those applying if free credit were
given in all stores with knowledge
beforehand that credit would not be
granted without confirmation of facts
stated by those applying"
The plan indorsed by the society
calls for creation of a special Su-
pervising Committee, consisting of
members from the Executive Commit
tee Of the Community Chest, the Hos
pital. Superintendents' Association,
and the medical and dental So
cieties.

COMRADE HONORED
BY GREEK VETERANS
Washington Colony Also Sends
Delegation to Tomb of Un-
known Soldier.

Washington's Greek colony paid
special tribute yesterday to one of theil
number who was killed in action as 6
member Of the American Army anc
who, posthumously, was awarded the
Congressional Medal of Honor for his
bravery and sacrifice.
Armistice day services began with q
special mass at st. Sophia Greek
Orthodox Church, Eighth and
streets, after which delegation visited
the Tomb Of the Unknown Soldier and
the grave Of George Dilboy in Airing
ton National Cemetery.
Dilboy, native of Turkey, enlisted
in the American Army and gave his
birthplace as Greece in order not to
be classed as an enemy alien. In July
1918, he attacked German machine
gun nest that was holding up the
American advance and was riddled by
bullets. His gallantry permitted the
troops to continue forward.
At ceremonies at his grave, A. Cat
sonis, supreme president of the Order
of Ahepa, paid tribute to Dflboy's
patriotism and urged his hearers to
follow the example of loyalty set by
the young soldier.
At the Tomb OF the Unknown
Soldier, Greek-American Veterans
placed a wreath. Former Senator
Rice w. Means of Colorado and Rev,
A. Lalouses, rector of st. Sophia, ad-
dressed the gathering.

Boys Snoke-C Collecting Hobby
Finds Fauor Only in School

Because of his hobby, which has
terrorized his parents and the neigh
borhood, Leonard Meakin, Western
High School boy, has become pro-
fessor.
That hobby is herpetology, which
in plain English means snake -ology,
and when 1t comes to things that
crawl, Leonard knows his stuff.
His teachers have encouraged Leon
ard in his specialization and he has
brought prize specimens of his col
lection to school for the edification of
other members of the Western Biology
Club, who listen attentively when he
speaks.
Recently, the "Ramblers," student
organization of the Abbot vocational
School, heard Of Leonard's hobby and
asked him to lecture to them and in
troduce them to the reptile collection
at the Zoo, some members Of which
owe their presence there to Leonard's
generosity and the insistence Of his
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Hardie Meakin
of 3942 Livingston street.
Roy Jennier, head keep OF the rep
tile house, welcomed the "Ramblers"
and took them behind the scenes to

YOUTHS ABSOLVED
IN WILSON Staying
Trio Held in Taxi UPS
Eliminated as Suspects
in Murder.

Police today announced they were
convinced that three youths arrested
in connection with series of taxicab
robberies knew nothing of the mis-
taken identity" gang ambush of Al
len B. Wilson at Takoma Park Oc-
tober %. The prisoners were ques-
toned and eliminated in so far as the
Wilson investigation was concerned.
The youths are Karl r. Longer

J. Panopoulos, 18, of the 200 block of
Ninth street northeast and Gus Wal
lace, 10, of the 700 block of Allison

liminary hearing.
Longerbeam, who pleaded guilty
was arrested Friday at his home in
Bancroft several hours after being
slightly wounded in the leg by police

guilty.
Inspector Frank S. w. Burke said a
2-caliber revolver was seized in
Longerbeams home. The gun prob
ably will be checked with the pistol
bullet which was removed from Will
sons head at an autopsy.
The death of Wilson, slain by gun
men lying in wait for Mickey" Nc

Sc how the elaborate cages can be
opened for cleaning and feeding the
reptiles.
Leonard told about the action of
snake poisons as they peered into the
cages where the cobra and bushmas-
ter lay coiled. They saw the squirm-
ing, coppery tangle of young copper
heads, born last Summer the day after
Leonard had captured the mother
snake.
1t was the capture of three copper
heads which caused Leonard to pre-
sent his collection to the Zoo. Before
that neighbors had avoided the garage
where his choice specimens were kept.
Timid girls in the vicinity of Leonard's
home would run at the sound of>a leaf
rustling in the gutter. But when
Leonard captured the three poisonous
copperheads his parents took a firm
stand.
It is such activities as Leonard's
that those who control the character
education experiment try to encour-
age, Miss BERTHE Backus, superintend-
ent of schools in charge Of that work,
declared.
Hobbies, which once were the trial
Of teachers lives, are being harnessed

but it seemed more manifestation
of juvenile exuberance than an in
tention of doing anything.
Meanwhile, Principal Frank c.
Daniel suspended from classes David
Carliner, 16-year-old member Of the
National Student League and Com
munist sympathizer. who admits he
led the demonstration, on the school
plaza Friday afternoon. The official
explained that he acted to protect
Carliner against violence from fellow
students.
Investigation in Progress.
Daniel admitted the boy probably
will be expelled if an investigation
now in progress, shows that he urged
a strike or melted other students to
riot. Throughout the morning stu
dents were called into Daniels Office
to tell what was said at the Friday
demonstration.
Carliner scoffed at the possibility
that he might be beaten by other
students and requested Daniel to allow
him to return to his classes pending
final action on his case. Daniel re-
fused and replied that he could not
be responsible for what might hap
pen"
The principal said he would give
Carliner an escort to see him safely
of the school grounds.
The boy admitted haranguing the
student gathering Friday and calling
mass meeting for thus morning. but
denied that he exhorted the students
to strike or engage in any other form
of violence.
"Unusually Intelligent"
Daniel said the boy stands well in
his classes and is unusually intelli-
gent.
Carliner was arrested several
months ago during the anti-Nazi de-
constration in front of the German
embassy.
A detail of six policemen was on
duty half an hour before the begin
ming of classes at Mckinley, but there
was no need for their protection. In
addition, the Tech Patrol" student
police organization, was unusually
active.
A basket of flowers was presented
to Principal Daniel by his faculty as
token of their support
There was some talk among the
Mckinley students of a demonstra-
ton at the school tonight, but no
definite plans seemed to have been
made.
Attendance in all the high schools
was reported as about average
AS precautionary measure against
students congregating on the plaza
behind Mckinley, Daniel ordered the
rear gates kept closed, forcing pupils
approaching from r street to circle
the large building and enter by the
front doors on T street.

PWA LOAN BILL
Up TODAY

Whether or not the Senate will
continue it's fight to permit the
District to apply for loans from
the PWA up to the amount Of $780,
100000, or take the House figure
Of $10,750,000, probably will be
settled today.
When the measure first passed
the House with amendments which
would reduce the amount the Dis
trict may borrow, Senator William
H. King CD of Utah, chairman
Of the Senate District Committee,
asserted he would ask the Senate
to send the bill to conference in
the hope that the Senate repre-
sentatives could at least have the
amount raised by several millions
Of dollars as compromise.
Yesterday, however, he withheld
action following information by
those familiar with House senti-
ment that for the Senate to at
tempt to balk the lower branch
Of Congress on the matter may
jeopardize passage OF the entire
proposal.
It was indicated early today
that the committee probably will
decide to accept the House amend.
mentS rather than risk killing the
whole measure by antagonizing
the lower house.
