Copper is Firm

lHERE is one encouraging phase to the copper
situation; stability seems to have been obtained
both IN American and foreign markets. Buying is
holding to a moderately good volume, and prices
are firm Blue Eagle electrolytic copper for do
nestle delivery is holding steadily to the 9 cent
level.
The mining industry is not going to prosper
heavily under these conditions, but, if they con-
tinue, it is going to make progress. 1t is said that
the average mine can operate profitably at the
current level Of prices, if it is able to keep its
operating costs from rising. There is a warming
IN that for legislators who might think this a good
time to plaster the mine with new taxes, new costs,
and new and unfriendly legislation.

''Peg Leg Joe'' Mourns Mother,
Dead after Strange Argument
Sobs in Police Precinct
Jail Recalling Push
That Made Her Fall.
Tells of Saying Prayers
at Bedside, Troubled
by Her Silence.

Joe Rollins, who for the best part
of his 43 wears. has been the constant
companion Of his mother, is in No. 4
police precinct sobbing in a cell, while
she lies dead on slab in the morgue,
a few blocks away.
When Joe opened his eyes this morn
ing in their rented room at ATS C
street southwest, he found his mother,
Mrs. Katie Rollins aged SO, dead in
bed beside him. That was about
7:30. He immediately phoned the
police. They came and got him. Or
dered his mothers frail body removed.
Joe has been the sole support Of
his mother for the past 80 years,
since his father died.
Hit BY Auto When Child.
"Peg Leg Joe" they call him down
on the wharf. When he was a little
boy, scarcely 4 years old, playing on
the streets of Southwest Washington,
one of the first automobiles of the
city ran him down, crushed his left
leg so completely it had to be ampu-
tated. Ever since then Joe has hob
bled about on wooden leg. He went
to the old Greenleaf School for only
three days, so that he knows not how
to read or write. Brooms have been
his means of getting on. his first
sweeping done around the old Center
Market.
In the eyes of his mother, Joe never
grew up-and her death is attributed
to this strange mother love.
Last night she argued with Joe,
grown man, about going out. as II he
were a boy in his teens. Joe talked
back to his mother. One word brought
another and a lengthy argument en-
sued, according to Joe's version. Then
he pushed her. Not hard push, still
it was enough to throw the old woman
off balance. She fell to the floor.
Touched by Her Silence.
They we're alone, Joe and his moth
er. in the little room they rented on
the second floor Of the c street house.
Joe picked up his mother and laid
her on the bed. He spoke to her, but
she did not answer. Now he was
sincerely sorry, for this silence was
a sign she was angry with him. This
was one of the ways she had Of show
ing her displeasure-not speaking to
Joe-When he was a bad boy.
1t was getting late, about 9 O'Clock,
so Joe decided not to go out. He
pulled the covers over her. knelt
down to say his prayers as she had
fought him to do when he was a
little boy-and he ended his prayers
in the oldfashioned way: And make
me good boy. Amen"
Then Joe crawled in bed beside
his mother, just as he had always

said, with a shrug, what can We hope
Of them?
"And England? Is she coming out
Of the depression? I cannot say that
she is. England is enjoying a temporary
pickup, an Indian Summer Of pros
perity, shall we say.
Il cannot believe that the present

the League of Nations. you ask?
well. something like that-but a
jolly site better"
Does Not Look Years.
Wells was dressed in tweeds, a
striped shirt and dropping bow tie.
He decidedly did not look his SO years.
His clipped moustache was only
slightly tinged with gray, and he had
an alert. family humorous manner
when answering questions.
Il hope to make annual visits to
your country in the future" Wells
said. Then" he smiled, II won't be
a curiosity to you reporters; won't
have to undergo these cross-eXamina-
tions. I'll be just another damned
Englishman!"
BY way of parting Wells said, This
was pleasant, but what's to come?

HEALTH NEEDS
TO Be OUTLINED
DR.. Rutland, New D. c. Off.
ciaI, to Appear Before
Senate Group.

The health needs Of the District
will be outlined by DR.. George c.
Rutland. the new District health Off
Ger in his initial appearance before
Appropriation Committee members of
the Senate, possibly late this week.
While determined ito do the best
Job possible" under whatever budget
is granted for the health problem. DR..
Rutland stated definitely today there
IS special need for more funds for ex-
ransion of the Public Health Nursing
Service.
If given an opportunity by the Dis
trict Subcommittee of the Senate Ap-
propriationS Committee, during con-
sideration of the 1886 budget, DR..
Rutland will ask for funds for en-
ployment of 10 public health nurses,
plus a supervisor.
Plans Model Service.
If this is granted he will place
them on a "generalized service" in
some section of the District and seek
to build up a model service as a DEM
onStration to the public OF what can
pe done under such a plan.
At present the District has but 80
public health nurses and these are on
specialized rather than generalized
service and DR.. Ruhland believes
much time Is wasted as they travel
about town to care for but one type OF
case, there being sometimes two or
more nurses going into the same home
to handle special types of needs.
The great value in public health
nursing service lies in discovery of
health needs, training of the indi-
vidual patient and his or her family
in health care and provision Of need
ed clinical or hospital care before dis
ease Is spread.
Aid for Parochial Schools.
In this connection he hopes to
make possible, at least in the future,
health inspection for the parochial
school children on the same basis as
is now afforded children in the pub
lie school system.
While there are some rs nurses at
tached to the Instructive Visiting
Nurse Society, DR.. Ruhland said there
are now more than 100 such nurses
in all available here for public service.
Proper standards, he said, are for one
nurse to about 1000 of population.
Washington is far below this stand
ard. he emphasizes.
He advocates also more public
health measures, solution Of the tuber-
culosis problem, distribution of more
public health literature and expan-
sion of social hygiene service. These
points he outlined yesterday, in an
address before the Washington Coun-
Gil of Social Agencies, at the
Y. w. c. A.
