D. c. NARCOTIC BILL
WINS SOCIETY AID
Medical Group Backs Plan
to Control Traffic by
Local Jurisdiction.

The Medical Society of the District
of Columbia pledged support last night
to a bill to be introduced at the next
Congress to give the superintendent
of police and the District health ON
Ger police power over the traf1c in
narcotic drugs.
This measure, already in force IN
20 States, has the approval OF the
American Medical Association and the
American Bar Association, 1t was said.
Under existing law. local authorities
have no Jurisdiction in cases Of mar
cotic violations, the society members
were told.
1t was pointed out that passage Of
the enabling legislation by all States
and Territories will deprive violators
of the narcotics laws of havens across
State lines. ......... .. ...
The society also indorSed proposed
amendment to the act regulating the
practice of pharmacy which would
prohibit the sale of hypnotic drugs
except on prescription. A recent sur
vey made by the Police Department,
the society was informed, revealed
that within 80 days IS local drug stores
sold nearly 10000 hypnotic tablets.
Restrictions contemplated by the
amendment would make more difhcult
the accidental self-over-doSage re-
sponsible for numerous deaths, the So
ciety declared.
A resolution was approved calling for
restoration of funds to the Gallinger
Hospital budget to provide for sub
stantial increases in personnel. The
shortage of nurses and other employees
there is "deplorable," it was agreed.

BALLOU FLAYS s
RED TEACHINGS
IN SCHOOLS

Taking UP the fight against
radical elements in the public
schools of the country, DR.. Frank
w. Ballou, superintendent of Dis
trict schools, has appealed to the
educators OF the Department OF
superintendents Of the National
Education Association holding a
convention in Atlantic City, to up
hold American traditions in teach
ing.
DR.. Ballou's participation in the
fight to rid this country Of red
tendencies was described today by
DR.. Stephen E. Kramer, first
assistant superintendent Of the
local schools. He stated that the
superintendent has taken a lead
ing role in the campaign to pre-
serve the American spirit in the
instruction of American youth.
New Social Order
The radical element is propos-
ing that the schools fit children
for a new social order. This is
directly in line with policies
adopted in Germany and Russia
In these countries, children are
trained for naziism and com
munism. The radicals are fight
ing for the rights of American
teachers to indoctrinate their
pupils with advanced social sci
ence theories.
Whether these new social sci
ences would be naziiSm, commu'
nism or fascism has not been spe-
Gifted by the radical group.
The trend of the left-Wingers
first became apparent at an open
panel discussion, and it was ct
this time that DR.. Ballou took up
the cudgels against the radical
proposals.
BalIOu Applauded
To the accompaniment OF ring
ing applause from the huge audi
ence Of educators from all parts
of the country, he declared the
people of America should deter
mine the kind of new social order
they want before the schools
change their policy of education.
After the new social order is
determined, DR.. Ballou said, tn e
schools can step in and train the
children for hat new order. Mean
while, the local superintendent de-
clared, the public schools should
carry on the teaching of Amer
ican traditions, and develop the
best possible traits of character
in boys and girls.
OPPOSE Radicals
In reporting these activities Of
the superintendent, DR.. Kramer
said:
"The whole spirit of the con-
ventiOn is against the radical
group"
The radicals, nevertheless, he
said, are waging a bitter fight to
carry their issues to the floor.

KNAPPS NARROWS, Nd,
March 1.-Oyster tongers would

their trade, using the waters here
as a harbor, under a unique deed
being prepared by Herbert H.
Balch, Talbot county attorney.
All interested parties are being
asked to sign the deed making

fused to recognize it as a harbor
unless the county obtains a deed
to the land.
The War Department has
agreed to dredge the marsh to
provide better harbor facilities if
the deed is obtained.
