which much credit is due to the De- putty Administrator for the Terri tory. MT Hugh J. Wade.
 The maintenance of the office of the National Recovery Administra- ton in Alaska would be of special value and therefore I urge that it be kept as a part of the reduced national organization. Congress has without doubt plenary power to leg iSlate for the territories on local as we'll as interstate matters. Hence distinct opportunity exists in AL aska for demonstration of the solid benefits inherent in the MIRA policy. In addition, the data that may be gathered through the maintenance of the branch of the MIRA set-up in Alaska, particularly with respect to the large salmon packing industry, would be of material value in con- sidering future legislation along the same lines. Industry in Alaska needs all of the National Industrial Recovery Act that survives Indust- ry in the United States needs the information that can best be obtain ed in Alaska through the mainten- ance of the NRA office there.
 Sincerely yours,
 Anthony J. Dimond, Delegate The Presidents s reply follows:
 The White House
 June 10, 1855. My dear MT. Dimond:
 Your Letter of June 7th raises an interesting question as to the desir- ability of extending the operation of the National Industrial Recovery Act in the Territory of Alaska and other places subject to the plenary ] power of Congress. This question involves, however, the broad con- sideration of the exercise of the Fed eral power over interstate commer- ce and the limitations placed upon the exercise of such power by the recent opinion of the Supreme Court. It would be difficult to ad- opt policy as to legislation affect ing the Territory of Alaska without relating it to the larger question of policy.
 Your suggestion, however, will be given careful consideration in re- viewing all the issues of policy and power which have been raised by the opinion of the Supreme Court Very sincerely yours, Franklin D. Roosevelt Honorable Anthony J. Dimond, House of Representatives, Washington, D. C.

World Of Music
Theme From Roosevelt High School Song by Allan Davis

.her colors reach the sky" The
manner in which the student body
Of Roosevelt sings the song is
ample evidence that Mr.. Davis
has written a tune that is sing
able and popular.
The fine orchestra mentioned
yesterday is largely the result of
the interest in music on the part
of Mr.. Davis, but he has another
and newer organization of which
he is especially proud considering
its age, the Roosevelt High School
Cadet Band.
The Roosevelt Cadet Band is
the newest high school brigade
band to be organized in Wash
ington, and while it is composed
largely Of beginners, it helped the
cadets to capture second place on
April II at the regimental drill at
Central High School stadium.
The band is under the direction
Of Franklin ]. jackson, who in
structs the band one periot.. every
school day. The Students Coun-
Gil and the p. T. A. lave been
generous in their support of the
organization in furnishing per-
manent equipment such as bass
horns, baritone horns, altos, from
bones and drums. However, as is
usually the case, Mr. jackson
finds difficulty in persuading stu
dents to take up the alto and bass
horns. Anyone taking up one Of
these instruments gets Uhe best
possible foundation of rhythm
and counting.
The enrolment of the band in
cludes the following by sections:
TrumpetS, Granville Bageant,
Robert Brown, Donald Collier,
Thomas Dwight, Guy Goodman,
Harold HenShall, Iverson Hutton,

WARNINGS ON
APPENDICITIS

Decreases in the mortality rate
from appendicitis will come "only
when there is full realization of
the danger of delay and Of all
medicants that may bring about
rupture" DR.. Paul S. Putski,
Washington surgeon, today told
the opening session of the an
nual scientific assembly of the
Medical Association Of the Dis
trict of Columbia.
Attached to the surgical staffS
of George Washington, Provi.
dence, Sibley, and Gallinger Hos
pitals, DR.. Putski said:
"In 1928 out of a total Of
5,O4O major operations in the
District hospitals, 725, or IA per
cent of the total, were for acute
appendicitis with a total death
rate of 22, or slightly over per
cent. In 1888 out of a total of
8,444 major operations 1,O28, or
approximately IL per cent. were
for acute appendicitis. There
were 40 deaths, an increase Of
about Z per cent"
DELAY FATAL
Nearly all these deaths were In
cases where ruptures had occurred
before the patient reached the
operating room, DR.. Puts k
pointed out.
According to DR.. Putski, the in
creased mortality rate is proper,

onset of symptoms and the opera
tion.

D. COMPOSER

The desire and ability to com
pose music frequently appears
where least suspected. One would
scarcely think, to hear Mr.. Allan
Davis, principal Of Roosevelt High
School, that he has more than a
passing interest in music. nor
would he volunteer the informa.
ton that he had added musical
composition to his many accom-.
pliShmentS.
In short, Mr.. Davis composed

No IMMEDIATE
= WAR, ASSERTS
JANE adams

It's the man in the street who
can make or prevent war, Miss
Jane Addams, the honorary Inter
national president Of the Woman'S
International League, said today
ut the Willard Hotel:
''MunitiOns manufacturers TO
lnent war and all sorts Of ele.
Nuents do it, but wouldn't get
anywhere If the general people
did not back 1t up"
Asked if she thought there is
possibility Of war, Miss AddamS
answered:
: mo one can predict that.
Personally, 1 don't think the
United States will war-nOt in
this generation. The United
States has no immediate worry
rs far as war is concerned"
DOES NOT LOOK AGE
Dressed in a neat dark blue
dress suit, the famous sociological
authority Of Hull House, Chicago,
and its founder, world figure
for many years as, a peace leader
and winner Of the Nobel peace
prize, did not look her "a years
today. She reminiSced:
Twenty years ago, If we were
told that the different govern.
mentS would be willing to get
together and discuss world
peace, we would not have be-
ieved it,"
That the nations are headed
for world peace Miss AddamS
firmly believes.
The question of what had
caused Miss AddamS to become
such staunch supporter Of peace
between all nations was answered
in these words:
"You can't live among people
Of all nations, as did for
many years, without having o
feeling for peace"
= SEES DECENTRALIZATION
This period of poverty and de.
preston no doubt will make a
decided impression on the future
generation in a demoralizing way,
Miss Addams believes, although
she declared she believes the
Government is getting along re.
markably well" in taking care of
the very young people through
the various relief and social
agencies.
It is the young men and women,
graduates Of colleges, all ready to
go into the world with no place to
go, that is demoralized, she
declared.
Miss Addams is here to attend
the twentieth anniversary meet.
ing Of the Women'S International
League for Peace and Freedom.

will open tomorrow afternoon
with a reception at the White

CHRISTMAS SEAL
 SESSIONS BEGUN
Children in Direct Contact in Home With TnberCulO-
 sis Endanger Selves

Hartford, Sept. 2e-"Children living in Connecticut who are in direct contact with persons in the home who have tuberculosis are three to five times as likely to de- velop this disease in later life as children who live in homes where
 there is no disease present" This statement was made today by Charles l.. Newcomb, of the Na- honal Tuberculosis Association, in opening the conference of Christ mas Seal workers held at the Ho- tel Bond in Hartford today under the auspices of the State Tubercu- losis Commission. Examination of several hundred thousand chhildren in recent years shows that whereas tubercu- losis does appear at intervals even among children who have had no apparent contact with the disease in their homes, among those chil- dren who have had known con- tact with some person in the home who has the disease, there is a steadily increased percentage of disease developed as the children grow, older.
 "Tuberculosis," says Mir. New comb, ''is an insidious disease. The
 seeds may be sown in childhood and the disease may not develop
 until the soil is properly fertilized due, sometimes, to overwork, lack
 of proper hygiene and other causes
 in young adult life and late adoles-
 cense. That is why we have
 50 much more tuberculosis in the
 age group fifteen to thirty than in
 any other period of life.
 "The annual sale of Christmas
 Seals, now in It's 29th year, has
 given the national, state and local
 tuberculosis associations in this city
 and elsewhere the money with
 which to spread knowledge of tu-
 berculosis. More than that, 1t has
 stimulated these communities to
 invest money to the extent of mill lions of dollars in hospitals, nurses.
 clinics and other facilities for the
 prevention and treatment of this disease.
 "The death rate from tubercu- losis goes down. Today 1t is not more than one-third what 1t was twenty five years ago but the battle is far from won. We can see the goal in sight but if we are going to attain 1t we must have the sim ews of war and those sinews are Christmas Seals"

Labor Charges Not
 Absurd, Says Woman
Mary Costenbader of Industrial Employment Agency Says Interruptions Agents Work With Employers

garding this stipulation for long time," she added.
 According to state Labor Com missioner Joseph M. Tone, hun dreds of complaints charging that fees asked by agencies amount to 30 and 100 per cent of the wages involved, have been received. He declared that Hundreds of thous- ands of cases are virtually affected by these abuses every year."
 MT. Tone gave several instances where, he said, employees were fired after one week and the fee of the agency amounted to one weeks pay; jobs were misrepre- scented and were refused after ap- plicants had reported for work, that jobs described as permanent turned out to be temporary and that agencies and employers Split" fees by creating a constant turnover at summer resorts.
 The state commissioner said he was going to do everything pos- sible to exterminate the abuses and that he would probably ask Attor- ney General Edward J. Daly for a ruling on whether private employ ment offices can make an agree ment with an employer to deduct service fees from an employees en- velope.
 He declared that working condi- tions are so frequently misrepre- sented by some of these agencies. where the director or owner can picture paradise where Hades really exists" that the employe quits in disgust.
 In many cases. he said, agencies collected both from the employer and applicant. Several bills de- signed by the labor department to more strictly supervise private agencies failed to pass at the last General Assembly session.
