applied early enough.
Once an infection Is established, he
said. such radiation takes the place
Of poultices in bringing it to Q head.
The treatment often brings about an
almost dramatic cessation of pain,
more complete than that obtained by
a full dose Of morphine.
The reason for the effect, he
stressed, still Is obscure, but there Is
increasing reason to believe that the
radiation results in the formation of
unspeciflc antibodies which attack the
invading organisms, enhance the for
nation Of antibodies which are spe-
ciflc to the kind of infection, and
cause the development of various fer
ments and engines. The unexplained
relief Of pain. he said. probably is due
TO some chemical action set UP in the
cell tissues. Among the remarkable
recent developments. he said, is the
fact that diphtheria carriers can be rid
OF the germs they carry and dispense
to the rest of the population by a very
mild X-ray treatment OF the upper
respiratory tract.

EXTENSION SEEN
FOR HOUSING ACT
Mcdonald Tells Real Estate
Boards Guarantees Have
Been Sound Policy.
BY JAMES Y. NEWTON,


NEW ORLEANS. November 18.-
Assurance that the life of the national
housing act will be extended by Con-
gress before its expiration next year
was given the twenty-ninth annual
convention of the National Associa-
tion of Real Estate Boards here today
by Stewart Mcdonald, Federal hous-
ing administrator.
In a speech delivered at the OPEN
ing session this morning. Mcdonald
said the Government guarantee Of
home mortgages. under title II of the
act, has proven a sound business prac-
tice. From a financial viewpoint, the
r. H. A. is in very healthy" con-
dition, he said. and there is no fear
of its ability to take care Of any claims
made in connection with its insurance
fund.
Low-cost housing. the administrator
asserted, will be pushed on an in
creasing scale in the future. Work is
now in progress or completed on over
s7.000.0 900 worth OF projects OF this
type, he said.
interviewed on his arrival here
last night. Mcdonald lashed out at
critics of F. H. A, charging the chief
opposition TO the act comes from .
group Of mortgage bankers and busi-
ness concerns which he described as
having pursued "usurious policies" in
the past in the field of home financing.
President Walter w. Rose of Or
lando. Fla. opened the general ses-
sions with an optimistic review of
the real estate business. The talk
was made to the largest gathering
of realtors assembled since 1929. More
than 1000 delegates are registered
from all parts of the United States.
Sessions will continue through Sat-
urday, with election of officers sched-
uled to take place at the final meeting
that day.
The National Capitals delegation,
one of the largest attending the con-
vention, was entertained at a banquet
last night by Morris Cafritz, leading
Washington realtor-builder.
One Of the main addresses at the
session tomorrow will be made by
H. Clifford Bangs, who will discuss
the services rendered by realty brokers
In specialized fields.

1895 TO 1 ,22o. 900 In leso-Dr. Johna-
thon c. Meakins Of McGill University,
Montreal. told the convention today.
This, he stressed. will be due to the
increasing average age Of the popula-
ton. with more and more persons
surviving the perils of infancy and
adolescence to reach the time of life
when the so-called cardio-vascular
diseases begin to take their toll. The
problem of circumventing this future,
the Montreal professor said, is out
standing in medical research, with only
few lines of attack open and little
being accomplished. This is due
l1rgely to the obscurity of the under
lying causes Of many heart ailments.
During the sixteenth century. he
said, the average prediction of life for
an infant at birth would be 20 years
A century ago it had risen to IS
years. Now every child at birth, he
said, has sporting chance" to reach
81 or So years. With the rise In the
chances Of life the average age Of the
population as q whole has risen so
that there are many more persons
In the higher age brackets.
DR.. Meakins referred to the famous
address made in Baltimore 80 years
ago by DR.. william Osler on the use
lessness Of men over SO. The heart
disease syndromes. he said, promise
to play great part in this uselessness
unless something can be done about
them. Contrary to the general opin-
ion. he stressed. they are the maladies
which cause the greatest stress, de-
pendency and painful deaths.
x-rays. chiefly associated with pho
tographing the inside of the body and
with treatment of malignant growths,

of infections which is hardly
recognized by most physicians, DR..
William F. Manages of Philadelphia told
the doctors. Very mild doses of this

cost Of maintaining and developing
the Nations Capital"
Maj. Donovan found that demands
for service and the needs for improve
ment and expansion Of operations
which have piled up during the past
years of economy set up bar against
any appreciable savings which might
be effected in the cost of operating
the District government.
When the Commissioners called for
the department estimates they insist
ed that all requests for funds be held
as close as possible to absolute necessi-
ties, but measured by essential needs.
Consider Cut in Costs.
I'm some quarters the suggestion
has been made that the Districts pres
ent financial difficulty should be met
by reducing the cost of the govern
ment," said Maj. Donovan. The
Commissioners, while in conference
with department heads, and during
their preparation Of the budget, gave
most serious consideration to this
matter.
They found that in most OF the
services there existed justificauons for
more personnel and maintenance
money than it was possible to allow.
For example, the school authorities
contend there is an existing shortage
of nearly 600 teachers in the public
schools: the Police Department proved
it's case for more men. and nearly all
of the institutions under the Board
of Public Welfare are shown to be
understaffed. 1t has not been pos
sible to allow any money for next
year to establish standard hours OF
labor in certain municipal services"
He quoted at length from the re-
port last Winter of the Commission
ers' Tax Revenue Committee to sup
port the point. This showed the main
tenance and operation expenses in
the past Is years had increased at
the rate of about 3.6 per cent per
year, ,sthe increase between 1920 and
1886 being 21O65. 900. All but 50 ,000,-
900 of this increase was in school, well
fare, police. fire. general expenses and
water items. The Water Department
is self-supporting.
Therefore, the committee decided,
any worthwhile decrease in operation
costs would have to come from cuts In
the other departments listed above.
Because of the need of these services,
the practicability of any large savings
was seriously doubted by the budget
ohicer.
$2,309,756 Realty Tax Unpaid.
On the questions Of inability of the
District to collect delinquent taxes,
Maj. Donovan said:
"On June 80. 1886, the unpaid real
estate taxes amounted to s2,309,756
and of this amount sl.7l2,064 related
to the fiscal year closing on that date
OF this latter amount, should the ex-
perience of the fiscal year 1885 con-
tinue, there will remain unpaid by
the close of the tax sale in January
1887. not more than 100000. For
all the fiscal years prior to 1896 Q87s
to 1885, inclusive), the unpaid real
estate taxes amount to $597 900, an
average of about $4,000 per year
