If the dentist uses undue vigor, or
the tooth is especially sensitive. the
patient inStinctively grips a rubber
bulb which he holds in his hand. The
pressure has the effect of changing
the ratio of nitrous-oxide to oxygen,
closing the valve which admits the lat
ter to the breathing apparatus and
proportionately increasing the flow of
nitrous-oxide, the pain-killer. The
grip relaxes automatically the instant
the proper balance between anaes-
thetic and the pain is re-established.
My dentist, who is quite a scien-
tiflc fellow, asked me lots of questions
as I continued to relax in the chair
for a few minutes after it was all over.
I asked him quite a few in turn, but
being a scientist and having to think

The telegram said:
Threat of Invasion.
"A man by the name of Parish is
threatening to invade our natural gas
territory in Kansas and Missouri and
1t is common rumor that he has only
been able to do this by the help and
encouragement given to him by the
Studebaker interests.
Il feel it to be my duty to advise
you that If Parish interferes with us In
any way we will feel free to invade
any territory of the Studebaker people

TEST|F|ES
ON BOND ACTIVITY
Attorney Tells S. E C. of
Efforts to Finance
Holders Group.
BY the Associated Press.

An attorney on the staff of the
congressional committee which is in
vestigating bondholders protective
committees testified at Securities
Commission hearing yesterday he had
once sought to finance bondholders'
committee in a way he did not now
deem proper.
protective committees, which are or
ganizations formed to try to obtain
payments for the holders of defaulted
bonds. H. N. Blaustein, Washington
attorney, was witness in the COM
mission study of committee formed
in 1882 to aid holders Of defaulted
Peruvian bonds.
$4,000 Loan Sought.
Blaustein, who claimed to be or
ganizer of the committee, which is
headed by A. o. Stanley, former SEN
ator from Kentucky, testified he
sought to obtain loan of 10000 from
Morris Meyer. New York lawyer, to
finance the committee in exchange for
which Meyer was to become a COM
mittee counsel and receive Is per cent
of its fees
The amount of bonds in default
totaled Sl00.000,000, and the COM
mittee was entitled to up to l per
cent on the bonds it received from
bondholders. This, Commission Coun-
sci w. o. Douglas pointed out, might
have been Sl,000,000 in theory, but
Blaustein said there was no ex-
pectation Of getting so many deposits
since other committees were in the
field. The fees are payable when ar
rangementS are made for payment of
the bonds.
Douglas asked Blaustein If he
thought his activity was ethical. and
Blaustein said that at the time he
had not considered the question. but
that in view of greater experience,
he would not do 1t now.
Payment Only $3.50.
The loan was never arranged, and
the only fee paid Blaustein was $3.50.
representing 10 per cent of $500,
which the committee received in set
tlemcnt from bankers on suits brought
in behalf of three bondholders. who
received about the same amount
Blaustein first testified he had not
organized the committee. but Douglas
showed him a letter he wrote TO
another lawyer in which he claimed
credit for organization and asked Is
per cent of the fees which were COL
lected. This was later reduced to 10
per cent, and Blaustein said virtually
his only activity had been that Of
organization.

BUILDING POLICY
CHANGE IS SOUGHT
CroWding U. S. Structures
in New Areas Opposed
by Citizens.

Change in Government construc-
ton policy in the District was urged
last night by the Mount Pleasant Citi-
zens' Association in registering op-
position to the crowding Of Federal
buildings in development of the rec
tangle west of the Capitol.
1--WE believe that in the construc-
ton of further Government buildings
it would be an error to place them
in large numbers and great size in
close neighborhood to each other" "
the association stated in a resolution
passed by a vote of 20 to 8.
There have been reasons to justify
such placing of buildings on the tract
south Of Pennsylvania avenue" the
citizens continued. "but to continue
this practice in other areas where
there is ample room would be grave
mistake"
Three Reasons for Objection.
The resolution. drafted by William
c. Lee, chairman of the associations
Parks and Reservations COMMITTEE,
mentions three reasons for objection
to the crowding They are:
a. 1t would be injurious to the
esthetic beauty of the city. which is
the JOY and pride of the whole coun-
try. A crowded downtown effect over
wide areas would be unsightly.
20. 1t would place undue difficulties
in the way of traffic. both human and
material. to and from the Govern
ment buildings and also to and from
the private business facilities which
must necessarily be near the Govern
ment buildings. So far as their nature
permits. Government activities should
be widely scattered over the District
Of Columbia.
"3. 1t might lead to the necessity
Of having a subway, which would be
a calamity
A minority group defended the Gov
ernment's policy on the basis of eff
cheney.
Support Pledged to Chest.
In other resolutions passed last
night the Mount Pleasant group
pledged support for the Community
Chest and for a movement to estab-
lish modern low-cost hospital in the
District.

the Greater National Capital Commit

Act Fought Controls.
The La Toilette act was designed
to keep holding companies. such as
the North American and other out
side interests. from ACQUIRING control
of District utilities It provides that
the courts shall compel any outside
interests which has 90 pc cent or more
of the stock of a local utility to dis
pose Of it.
The law was circumvented several
years ago when outside interests
gained control of stock Of the Wash
ington Gas Co. and embodied it in
common law trust. This differs from
the proposal of the North American
Co.. which would transfer 62.197
shares of the railway company stock
to a non-voting trust.
Roberts expects to complete his re-
port by November 81, the date on
which the Securities Commission
plans to consider the North Ameri-
