men have remarkable and almost un-
believable records, as cab drivers cover
more miles than any other class of
motor vehicle drivers, especially under
low taxicab rates"
Excerpts from letter from Mr..
Davis to the Commissioners and police
superintendent regarding the plan to
reward the careful taxi driver follows:
ITO uplift the morale of all taxicab
drivers I respectfully and sincerely
request Of you that some recognition
be taken officially by the Board of
Commissioners when a taxicab driver
in the District of Columbia performs
some meritorious deed in the interests
of the entire community.
New York Recognition.
ION page 80 of the July Readers
Digest the following paragraph was
used from an article in the New York
Herald Tribune:
Taxi drivers who risk their lives
in apprehending criminals or prevent
ing hold-ups and suicides have hither-
to had scant recognition from the
police. Recently, however, Mayor La
Guardia of New York City has inau-
gurated the policy of rewarding cab
drivers who perform public-spirited
acts with a green-and-gold breast bar
and special license bearing the words
commended for public service" :"
Seventy drivers were selected to be
the recipients of the new honor and
others will be added whenever their
services merit it.
You may recall that Mayor La
Guardia visited Washington during
the taxicab strike and, according to
newspaper reports, was compelled to
call Maj Brown for transportation, as
there we're no taxicabs operating. The

FAILS TO REACH GOAL

WASHINGTON, November IL
The New Deals work relief program
failed of it's goal of 100000 men at
work by November l, WPA Admin
istrator Harry T.. Hopkins revealed
today in announcing that only L.
1877 $40 were employed on federal

failure to reach the latter total,
merely announcing that men at
work now include LOOT ,208 on
works-progress projects, 555,717 IN
civilian conservation corps and
1A,685 on other federal projects.

compares with 1,543,185 the week
before indicating that the New Deal

seven days.
The state jop totals include: Ida

sHasty" Hunters
To Lose Licenses
Game Department Will Act On
Careless Shooting; Perman-
emily Revoked

Lifetime revocation Of hunting
and fishing licenses face number
Of Washington hunters who were a
bit too hasty on the trigger.
State game protectors this week
were Investigating a number of re-
cent hunting accidents in which
people were either killed or wound
ed by gunsfot from hunters fire
arms. The game protectors will en-
force state game commission reg
ulation that makes it unlawful for q
hunter who has shot another person
or a domestic animal not his own,
ever to possess again Washington
hunting and fishing license unless
given direct permission after a hear
ing before the state game commits
sion.
< /. The regulation has been enforced
since it's adoption over two years
ago, but special instructions were
forwarded all game protectors fol-
lowing a recent hunters epidemic
of carelessness.
Youths who are comparative
novice huntsmen have been respons
ible for most of this years accidents,
the game department points out. In
most of the game concentration
areas where veteran hunters are
attached, there have been no gun
shot accidents in years.

PREDICTS LARGE SALE
OF CHRISTMAS SEALS

Predicting that the sale of Christ
mas seals which begins the day AFT
ter Thanksgiving, will probably be
the most successful since 1880 is the
forecast made by Carl j. Smith, of
Seattle, vice president of the Wash
ington tuberculosis association.
"For many years." said Mr.. Smith,
II have been deeply interested in
tuberculosis work, especially those
educational features, which can be
emphasized during the annual sale
of Christmas seals.
II am a strong believer" he con-
tinued, "in education through par
ticipation and I urge that the young
people, as high school students, be
given an opportunity by the county
tuberculosis leagues which handle
the sale locally, to appear as speak,
ers on phases of tuberculosis control
before clubs, and over the radio. For
those who prefer to write, essay and
playlet contests should be made
available.
Il am sure that the campaign as
well as the students would be
greatly benefited by such an
arrangement. We need the intellt-
gent cooperation now of these young
people to whom we shall soon hand
the responsibility Of carrying for
ward the campaign against tuber-
culosis, which should be reduced to
a minor instead Of a major health
problem in the next generation"
The greater part Of the funds
raised through the sale are retained
by the county league to finance the

SUGGESTIONS ARE MADE
FOR MARKETING HENS

PULLMAN. (UP)-After market
hens are properly fattened they
should be kept away from food for
"a hours prior to killing, says the
poultry department of the state coll
lege. They should be allowed access
to water only during the first II
hours of the fast as that helps to
reduce shrinkage and aids the diges-
tive tract to empty.
If the hens are not properly star
we'd, food products in the crop and
intestines begin to decompose. Walls
of the digestive tract are practic-
ally bacteria-proof when empty, but
when expanded they are thinner
and germs can penetrate them more
easily causing infection OF the sur
rounding flesh.

BANK LAW MAY
Be LIBERALIzED
Legislature viii Consider
Action in Support of
Housing Act.

Legislation to liberalize the
state banking law to permit wider
latitude in making housing loans
is scheduled to come before the
General Assembly.
National banks already have been
authorized to make the loans, which
are insured, but state banks are
handicapped by restrictive laws.
The national housing act per-
mits loans up to 80 per cent of the
appraised valuation, but the Indiana
law prohibits banks from making
loans for more than so per cent.
The Federal law also allows twenty
year loans, but the Indiana law
prohibits state banks from making
real estate loans for more than five
years.
The changes, proposed by James
A. Moffet5, national housing adj
ministrator, would be applicable
only to loans made under the Fed
eral housing act.
Another proposal would permit
building and loan associations to
come under the act.

SEN. COSTICAN
MOVES TO CURB
COURT POWERS
Introduces Bill Amending
Constitution to Protect
Liberal Laws.

BIZ ScTipps-Hoioard Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Jan. 4. - Court
attacks on New Deal legislation
would be curbed by constitutional
amendment introduced today by
Senator Edward p Costigan, DEM
ocratic Progressive from Colorado.
The measure would protect the
bulk of the New Deal measures
passed by Congress. and other pro-
greSSive legislation, from assaults on
constitutional grounds.
1t would confer on Congress spe-
cific power to legiSlate on hours,
wages and conditions of labor, and
to regulate and prevent unfair
methods and practices in industry
and commerce.
Court interpretations of the So
called due process" clauses of the
Constitution would be limited to the
procedure methods used, as dis
tinguiShed from the substance of the
legislation itself. This would pre-
vent courts from attempting to void
New Deal enactmentS by declaring
the emergency at an end.
Four other progressive bills were
introduced by Senator CoStigan.
They included:
A constitutional amendment to
subject taX-exempt securities to fed
eral and state taxation;
The anti-lynching bill which he
and Senator Robert F. Wagner Cd,
N. " sponsored last session;
A bill to increase the present
authorized bond issue for the Home
Owners Loan Corp. by one and one
half billion dollars, and to enable
that corporation to use accrued pay
ment of interest and principal on
loans already made as a revolving
fund for additional loans;
A bill for small crop seed loans for
1885.
