tuberculosis Death
Rate Declines; A Cities
Show Increase

Chicago, Oct. II, AMP - Al
though four cities with Negro
populations Of 1000 900 or over
showed increases, death rate
through the nation among col
ored from tuberculosis continued
to decline in 1884, although at
not so rapid a rate as during the
preceding year. This decline, de-
spite economic conditions, was
revealed in an exclusive report to
the Associated Negro Press by
Godias j. Drolet, statistisian and
acting director of the New York
tuberculosis and Health Associa-
ton.
The Drolet survey, which in
cludes the AZ largest cities a n d
the known mortality of their resi-
dents, both in town and in health
resorts, reveals a death drop of
five per cent in 1884 after a six
per cent drop in 1893. Negro
population in these cities totaled
2,759,7 02. In 1894, 6,O96, or 22O.9
per hundred thousand, died. The
1888 survey showed SPIT deaths
at a rate Of 1929. In the AZ
cities for 1884 Negro mortality
was 27.9 per cent Of the total Of
21.833 among both races.

nine MONTHSF FOR
RECOVERY ACT TO
Be ACCEPTABLE
President Will Agree in
Order to Stop Further
Senate Debate
BY II. O. THOMPSON
ted Press staff Correspondent


UNITED Press STAFF Correspondent
Washington, May Is - (UP) -
The administration may accept its
defeat in the senate and agree to
a nine months extension of NRA,
it was indicated today.
Although President Roosevelt
has insisted upon a two years ex-
tension of his much disputed re-
covery agency, it was indicated
that the administration did no
care to precipitate another such
prolonged senate disagreement as
delayed passage of the work-relief
bill.
Would Accept 1t
President Roosevelt has given no
indication of a change in his de-
sire for a full two-year extension
of MIRA, but was understood to
have told congressional leaders he
would accept the nine months II
that was the best they could do.
In passing the resolution to ex-
tend an emasculated MIRA act only
to April 1, 1896, the senate gave
the administration blunt warning
1t would have to accept temporary
extension or run the risk of hav-
ing MIRA go by default when the
present act expires June '16.
MIRA Chairman Donald Rich
berg, viewing nine-months extern
zion as complete folly" was
expected to submit a report to the
house ways and means committee
within the next few days Clarity
ing the administration attitude
on the senate bill.
The senate, in passing the NRA
measure after little more than an
hours debate, gave every indica-
ton that proposals for longer
extension would be rejected. The
senate served warning on the house
that it would not accept two-year
extension.
Changes In MIRA
| The Clark resolution would
change the NRA in three vital
particulars. 1t would:
1. Specifically prohibit price
fixing.
Q. Exclude intrastate industries
from code operations.
8. Require the president to re-
wise all codes within 80 days to
come under provisions of the reso-
luton.
The ways and means committee.
which will handle the legislation
IN the house, met secretly soon
after the senate passed the abbre-
waited extension bill. 1t was UNDER
stood some controversy existed
over the interstate commerce pro-
visions of the bill.
Chairman Robert L. Doughton
said no definite decision had been
made as yet as to whether demo-
cratic members would support the
two-year extension.
The committee probably Will
start hearings In few days. only
q few witnesses will be called.
Speaker Joseph w. Byrnes said the
bill, when reported out OF commits
tee, would be given immediate
right-of-way.

FLEET HAS GONE
into WAR ARENA
As Roaring Army Air

Honolulu, T. H, May 15.-(UP).
Protected from overhead attack
by AZ roaring army airplanes. the
United States fleet slipped into the
vast war arena of the North Paciec
today at dawn.
The fleet departure, beginning
before the first mists of dawn curl
ed across historic Diamond Head,
marked another phase of the navy's
greatest peacetime maneuvers, in
volving the intricacies of prob
lem "a" and a test of Americas
Seek Out Submarines
The army planes scared from
Wheeler field in darkness to scout
the sea surrounding the Island OF
Oahu. The bombers and observa-
ton craft were searching for
menacing black submarines, Turk
ing in the path of the departing
battle forces.
The evacuation was expected to
be effected speedily, with the So
fighting ships we'll clear of the har-
Dor and strung out in battle for
nation toward isolated Midway
Island before sunset.
This new maneuver apparently
was the result of conferences be-
tween navy and army officials in
which they discussed the speed
with which defense force could
thrust itself safely between Pearl
Harbor n avail base and attacking
forces in the wartime emergency.
Will Mass Forces
It was disclosed in reliable quar-
tiers that when the major battle en-
gagement has been completed, both
defending and attacking fleets Will
mass forces in a formidable attack
on the tiny Isle of Aahu, whose
defenses at present are confined al
most entirely to submarines. Army
planes and anti-aircraft batteries.
One of the most spectacular
phases of the maneuvers, it was
III. derstood, would be in connection
with this attack when night air
raid is launched at Honolulu and
Pearl Harbor.
Plans for the attack, it was be-
lieved. called for army land de-
lenses to be tipped" shortly be-
fore the attack is begun, permit
ting defending forces only the
shortest time for preparation.
Planes Are Somewhere
Departure of the fleet for Mid
way was regarded as forerunner
to bringing the feet of naval planes
into the maneuvers following their
mysterious. hop to the Sandy Ca
BILE station several days ago. The
planes. off on 1900 mile nom
stop flight to the island, have been
unreported since.
Developments subsequent to
their departure, however. indicated
they had halted at least once en-
route.

MOCK WAR

ABOARD U. S. S. PENNSYLr
VANIA WITH U. S. FLEET AT
SEA, June 6 0.N.SO.-A pitched
battle" between the scouting and
battle forces of the U. S. Navy was
in prospect today as the fleet was
divided into equal units by order
of Admiral Joseph M. Reeves for
the realistic war games.
Rear Admiral A. J. Hepburn was
