was dying when he had a slight rise

DRIVE Is LAUNCHED
TO HOLD RESIDENTS
San Francisco Business Leaders
Fear New Bridge Will
Cause Exodus.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, September IA
To keep San Franciscans at home
after completion of the two bridges
which will link the city with opposite
shores Of San Francisco Bay, civic
committees are working on rapid
transit plans to furnish quicker trans
portation to the city's residential Sec
tions than to points across the bay.
Fast easy transportation to transbay
cities win come as the San Francisco
Oakland Bridge and the Golden Gate
span, being constructed at a cost Of
more than $100,000,0 900, cut the
familiar ferries virtually out Of the
picture.
The thought of seeing San Francisco
residents seize upon this easy COM
munication to move their homes to
Oakland, Berkeley and adjacent east
bay cities on the other end of the bay
bridge, or to the many little Marin
County towns which will be serviced
by the Gate span, has given business
and industrial leaders here bad case
Of the jitters
From the outlying residential regions
to the center Of the city it now re-
quires about SO minutes on street cars.
It takes similar period to arrive at
the ferry building here from North
Berkeley and some other parts of the
east bay. The new bay bridge Is
planned to carry rapid trains on
which the commuter can be whisked
across the bay to downtown San Fran
cisco in 20 minutes less time then it
now takes.

DOCTOR WORRIED
OVER QU|NTUPLETS
Holds Babies Have Chance
to Recover From Intes-
final T0xemia.
~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
CAIL.ANDER, Ontario, September
14.-Anxiety hung over the home Of
the Dionnes today as the famous
quintuplets suffered from the debili-
tating effects of intestinal toxemia.
After seeing the children last night
DR.. A. r. Dafoe, who has attended
them since birth, said he was con-
cerned." He added, however, that
the intestinal disorder, communicated
from Yvonne to her sisters, Annette,
Cecille, Emile and Marie, was COM
paratively slight. In older, stronger
children it would be regarded trivial,
he asserted.
The physician indicated that he
was most concerned by the condition
of Annette, who lost az ounces in
weight yesterday. Yvonne, with
whom the malady started, seemed
to be improved today.
But DR.. Dafoe said the babies,
whose consumption. Of food has in
creased steadily, have better chance
of surviving now than would have
been the case had the illness attacked
them two months ago.
Despite the illness of the children,
preparations to open the Dafoe Hos
pital, built especially for them hun
dred yards from the farm house in
which they were born, went forward.
After the ceremonial opening today
equipment Of the hospital will be test
ed and DR.. Dafoe planned to move
his celebrated patients as soon as
possible.

PARAGUAYAN DRIVE

BUENOS AIRES, September a.
Paraguay has reopened her drive, be-
gun August 80, to oust Gen. Jose
Lanza's fifth Bolivian army from
its headquarters at Ingavi
Beaten back in their drive at the
important communications center of
Carandayty. IN another sector of the
Chaco, the Paraguayan armies yester-
day began hammering at the defenses
OF Fort Ballivian, major Bolivian
stronghold, and yesterday renewed
their push toward IngaW.
Military observers here saw In the
renewed activity Of those sectors an
effort to divert Bolivia's attention to
Ballivian and Ingavi before she can
launch an effective counter attack In
the Carandayty area.
An Asuncion communique today
said Paraguay troops had taken Fort
Madrejon, 80 miles southeast of In
gavi. and some 80 miles west of Fort
Florida, which Paraguay captured in

TOWELS IN PUBLIC wASHROOMS

| In this era of codes and special
taxes, situations sometimes arise
which are of great Importance TO the
public, but of which they learn very
little. For instance. in protecting
one industry by holding down an
other, il becomes a public question
how much the one is benefited. at
what expense to the other. and with
what results to the public.
An illustration has just come to
light in the paper industry which
has surprising and far-reaching re-
suits. Long suffering from demOral-
lied conditions due to Overproduc-
tion. restricted demand and unremu-
nerative prices. it now has a new
problem. Secretary Wallace. acting
under authority conferred on him by
the Agricultural Adjustment Act, has
imposed a heavy processing tax on
paper towels and other paper pro-
ducts. amounting to approximately
ten per cent of the manufacturers
selling price. The reason given is
that it will prevent a shift i'm con-
sumption from cotton to paper.
However the other paper items
may be treated. ii is certainly to be
said i'm favor of the paper towel in
dustry that il has made real con-
tributiOn to sanitation in public
washrOOms over the period of the
last decade. Paper towels are used
in schools. public buildings and man
ufacturing plants where. in most in
stances, no towel service was used
prior to paper. and in all likelihood
no towel service will be provided If
the price of paper towels. as re-
suit of the tax, becomes prOhibitive.
II is to he hoped that Secretary
Wallace will take this into consider
alton in fixing revised and just
rate. so that the use of this sanitary
convenience, which is provided pri-
narily to school children and work
ingmen in factories. is not discarded.
II is of too great importance to the
public health and the health of
school children to he ignored. II
would seem that. instead of bearing
an unreasonable burden. paper tow
els should he given every encourage
ment. They are a distinct forward
step in the direction of improved
sanitary conditions in public wash
rooms. To tax them out of these and
many other places would be a back
ward step in our modern progress.

ADVANTAGE IN BURNING
SALT MARSH

In response to the large number
of requests from marsh owners, the
CCC boys of Camps 1924 and 1926
located at Lewes and Slaughter
Beach respectively, spent a large
part of last week in helping owners
burn their marshes to facilitate the
ditching.
These requests came as result of
circular letter sent to marsh own
ers by the Delaware Mosquito Con-
troll Commission. advising them to
burn off their salt marshes between
March 81 and April 1. The same let
ter offered the aid of the CCC work
ers to any marsh owner who should
request IL.
The advantages of burning off salt
marshes at this time of year are
manifold: IL is too late to injure the
muskrats. yet not late enough to
interfere with the nesting of wild
fowl: il rids the marshes of tough
matted growths that retard drainage
in old bitches and choke new ones;
il helps destroy the beach and sand
f1y larvae that breed in the marsh
grasses: it improves the hay crop
for the coming year and prevents
the the acculation of dense growths
year after year. which retard drain
age and hence increase mosquito
breeding; muskrats are benefited
by the destruction of their houses,
many of which become lice infested
by spring.
While a great area was burned
over. much more would have been
covered had not the weather been
inclement during the past week.
