Physicians of France did every
thing they could to get rid of Pas
teur, who told them that the insani-
tary instruments they used caused
more. deaths than the diseases they
treated. Finally they had him ban
ished from Paris and he set up a
laboratory in Arbois, small prov
ince. Che of the old school doctors,
found the place and challenged
Pasteur to a public demonstration
of his anthrax vaccine. Pasteur &C
cepted.
Terms Of the experiment were that
25 of so sheep be vaccinated with the
Pasteur vaccine, and then all be
given anthrax by injections of blood
taken fror, animals which had died
from the disease
Test Attains Prominence
Overnight the test attained inter-
national prominence and a circus
city sprang up near the two pens
where the animals were kept. DR..
Lister, famous English antiseptic
specialist, came to see the results.
At a signal, the crowds moved to-
ward the pens and found that all
but two of the sheep which mad not
been vaccinated were dead.
The Pasteur- treated sheep we're
lying on the ground in their pens
Pasteur stopped on his way to the
enclosure, fearful that the vaccine
had not worked. Suddenly dog
parked, and the sheep jumped to
their feet, alive and healthy. Tear
fully apologize, the French doctors
swarmed about the happy little
scientist.
Starts Work on Rabies
That same day Pasteur saw a mad
dog bite a man and nothing that
science had evolved could save him.
He determined then to search for
a rabies vaccine. Working secretly
with mad dogs he went through one
futile experiment after another.
Then through an accident he dis
covered that the virility of germs
decreases as they age. He concocted
new serum and used it on boy
who was suffering from the disease.
It worked.
In the cast of the picture is Paul
Mum as DR.. Pasteur; Josephine
Hutchinson as his wife, Anita Louise
as Pasteur's daughter; Donald
Woods as a young doctor who be-
lieved in Pasteur; and Fritz Lieber
as Pasteur's greatest enemy.

AIRPORT FUNDS
DENIED DISTRICT
All States Receive Share of
$44,475,707 of w. P. A.
Grant.

All the States have received share
Of $44,475,707 of W. P. A. funds for
airport construction and improvement,
but the District has received nothing,
it was disclosed late yesterday.
Representative Randolph Of West
Virginia reported to the House that
872 airport projects in the States have
been approved by the Bureau Of Air
Commerce, and officials have under
consideration additional projects total
ing $1.200,000.
I'm each of the States, but not at
the National Capital" he told the
House. wv. P. A. funds are being used
for construction and improvement"
Total Federal funds authorized for
airport programs approved by the
Bureau OF Air Commerce range up
ward from Sl2,l42 for Delaware to
s6, sos, ,e82 for California, according to
the table Randolph presented. New
York projects totaling s3,942,64 have
been authorized. while Ohio is sched-
uled for projects involving $3.50, 9,14l
and nine other States for more than
81 .000. 600 each.
Virginia is listed for 1S airport
projects at total cost Of $413 ,665 and
Maryland for three, costing $3.50, ,864.
Randolph, who Is chairman of the
subcommittee of the House District
Committee in charge of airport Iegis-
lation, pointed out that the importance
of airport construction is increased
with the unsettled conditions in Eu-
rope, with war clouds growing darker
day by day."
While the Federal Government is
going forward with this vast program
throughout the country, it was pointed
out, the District airport legislation
deadlocked because of a wrangle over
whether the Federal Government shall
contribute half of the initial author.

Defeat of the measure was threatened
when it was called up in the House
last week.
The only w. P. A. airport expendi.

law, which would be repealed, corpo-
rattons pay tax averaging about 1874
per cent on their net earnings.
Recommendations Predicted.
Some subcommittee members said
privately they thought the new sched-
ule was almost certain to be recon-
mended later to the full Ways and
Means Committee.
The cushions in there, and it's a
good one" Hill announced. "It doesn't
cut the yield, which still is $500, ,O00,-
000."
While the corporate levy is the foun-
dation stone of the administration
tax plan, and yesterdays decision clar-
ifled the most important point Of dis
pute yet brought into the tax delibera-
tions, touchy problems yet unsolved
gave indication that it might be nearly
another month before the new bill
could be brought to the House floor.
Such delay would cast a consider
able shadow on congressional hopes
for a May adjournment. However,
Speaker Byrns, after a White House
visit yesterday, reiterated his predic-
tion that the end Of April would find
Congress homeward bound.
At the same time there have been
private, but informed, predictions that
another 10 days might elapse before
the House subcommittee is ready to
turn a completed tax bill over to the
full committee.

j. S. TO RECOGNIZE
PARAGUAY TODAY
Will Act in Concert With
Five Major South Ameri-

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Official announcement was made
today that the United States, acting
in concert with five major South
American nations will extend diplo-
matte recognition to the new govern
ment of Paraguay today at pm.
Acting Secretary of State Phillips
told his press conference that the
American minister, F1ndley Howard,
would join the ministers to Paraguay
from Argentina, Brazil, Chile. Peru
and Uruguay in according formal rec
ognition at Asuncion at pm, Par
aguay time.
As soon as word is flashed TO Wash
ington that the ceremony has taken
place, President Roosevelt will send
a personal message to Col. Rafael
Franco. chief of the new government
which succeeded the regime of former
President Ayala after a military up
rising led by Franco about month
ago.
The Presidents message was eX-
pected to contain his formal invita-
ton to Franco for his government s
participation in the proposed all
American peace conference to be held
this year at Buenos Aires.
Recognition had been withheld
temporarily by these powers pending
assurances that the new Paraguayan
government under Col. Rafael Franco,
which assumed power after a military
uprising about month ago, would
adhere to the Chaco peace settlement
signed with Bolivia by the previous
Paraguayan regime.
Paraguay's formal acceptance of
President Roosevelt's invitation to an
all-American peace conference to be
held at Buenos Aires this year is ex-
pected to be forthcoming shortly after
the recognition.

UNION HEAD SEES
STRIKE END NEAR
Lauds Ia Guardia Choice
Of Mediators as ParIey
is Opened.
RY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 14.-James ],
Bambrick, Building Service Union
strike leader, said the possibility of the
two weeks old strike being settled "is
greater than ever before" in accepting
an invitation today to meet with
Mayor La Guardia's mediation com.
mittee.
Bambrick, who is directing the
strike, which has affected $500 office
buildings, apartments and hotels in
New York, and his counsel, Edward
Mcguire, met with the five mediators
appointed by the mayor.
Bambrick praised the Mayors selec-
tions as men Of the highest calibre."
Pending the outcome of the con-
ferences with the mediation board
Bambrick said no effort would be made
to extend the strike.
Mayor La Guardia, in despair Of
breaking the strike deadlock by his
individual efforts, named the Survey
Board of five men to effect a settle.
ment of the walkout.
The board. composed OF prominent
Jurlsts, merchants and city officials,
met promptly and invited the warning
factions to meet with it today.
The board was ordered by the mayor
Ito establish the obstacles to prompt
settlement of the strike and to make
recommendations for immediate termi-
nation of the deadlock"
A few minutes earlier the Realty
Board made new plea for settlement.
1t admitted that IS per cent of the re-
placement workers would not be satis-
facory under ordinary conditions" and
offered to dismiss them The other IS
per cent, 1t said, would have to re-
main as permanent employees.
The question of replacement workers
remaining on the job has been the
stumbling block to settlement. Union
leaders insist all must go; employers
say they will retain all who were prom.
ised permanent jobs.
The Realty Boards action followed
a break in the solidarity of the own
ers' ranks. The Metropolitan Building
Owners Association, representing 500
buildings employing 5000 men, signed
an arbitration agreement with ti1e
union. The men were ordered to re-
turn to work today.

except to school teachers and libra.
rians. In the postal service the bills
apply to departmental employees and
those in the mail bag equipment
shops
The bills also apply to the em-
ployes Of corporations created by Con.
gress if they are either wholly owned
or controlled by the Government. This
provision was included to cover the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.
In addition to the IS days sick
leave, the bill has provision author
izing department heads to advance 80
days of sick leave beyond accrued
leave in cases of serious illness.
Both Unions Sought Change.
Presidential approval of the two
bills brings an end to more than a
years effort by congressional friends
of Government employees to improve
leave conditions in the Federal serv-
ice. Both the American Federation
of Government Employees and the Ma
tional Federation of Federal EN-
ployes have been active in the cause.
Settlement of the issue was pre-
vented last year when Senator Nc.
Kellar, Democrat, of Tennessee OBJ
jected to terms of the House bill and
finally blocked further consideration
Of the legislation at that session Of
Congress.
Success this year came only after
distinct compromises had been
granted by sponsors of the legisla-
ton in both House and Senate. The
Senate group, for instance, gave way
to sthe House in making the measures
retroactive to January l rather than
becoming effective in July. The
accumulation limit of 90 days for sick
leave was a compromise between 100
favored by the House and so favored
by the Senate.
In the case of annual leave, the
House sought 80 days with an ac-
emulation Of 120 days. The Senate
held out for 26 days as specified with
accumulation of go days.
Overtime Problem Remains.
One issue, that of compensation for
overtime work, remains short of final
settlement. 1t was the wish of the
House sponsors of the annual leave
bill to include a provision for addi-
tional leave in direct proportion to
overtime. On objection Of Senate
confereeS however. il was agreed to
make further study of the problem.
Accordingly, the bill carries
clause directing department heads to
keep a record of all overtime work be-
tween July ! and December 81 of this
year. The report is to be submitted
to Congress by January 81, 1887.
with the understanding that its lnd-
ings may be the basis for amendments
to the leave legislation.
