SCHOOL BOARD
T0NAME AIDE

When the Board of Education
meets next Wednesday it will, in
all probability, appoint a new
StatiStician for the District pub
lie schools, it was indicated today.
Applications for the post, va
Gated by John Brougher when he
was appointed assistant principal
Of Central High School, have been
in the Superintendent's office
since November 81.
Not only is it necessary to ap-
point Statistician, but it is i'm
perative that it be done before
Congress convenes the second
week in January so that the new
school budget may be presented.
Since Mr.. Brougher's appoint
ment two months ago the work
has been carried on by his three
assistants.
Another appointment due for
consideration by the board is that
of assistant principal of Roose-
velt High School. Applications
for the position have been on the
Superintendent's desk since De-
oember S, but it is unlikely an ap-
pointment will be made at the
next meeting. RooSevelt's assist
ant principal, Miss Mae Brad
shaw, is now principal. Shortly
before her appointment Charles
E. BiSh was appointed second as
siStant principal. Miss Brad
ShaW's place has never been filled.

RAISE IN SPEED
LIMIT FOUGHT

Traffic Director William A. Van
Duzer today characterized as
dangerous and unreasonable" the
proposal of the American Auto
mobile Associations local advisory
board Of allowing a motoriSt to
travel at 35 miles an hour in a
22-mile zone and As miles an hour
in 30-mile speed zone before sub
jecting his permit to suspension.
In communication to CommiS-
Sioner Melvin C. Hazen the traf-
fic director advocated that the
present system Of revoking and
suSpending permits be kept intact.
The communication was in reply
to a written proposal of traffic
changes made by the A. A. A. ad-
visory board, of which George w.
Offutt is chairman.
Van Duzer pointed to the traf-
fic record and the revocation
boards record in support of his
contention that the present sys-
tenn be unmolested. He said that
for the first II months of this year
3,763 persons were injured in traf-
fic accidents, a decrease of 266 in
the number hurt during the same
period last year, and 81 persons
were killed, a decrease Of 81. He
said that since January the revoca-
ton board has suspended or re-
voked 1929 District permits and
refused the right to drive here to
544 out-of-town residents because
of violations.

.ICKES ASSAILS
'AD BLURB|NG'
ON RADIO
Broadcasters Urged to
Show Restraint in
Boring Plugs

Declaring that he has often
been forced to turn off his radio
because of objectionable" adver.
tising blurbs, Secretary of Interior
Harold L. Ickes today called on
the radio broadcasting industry to
sugar coat" its advertising.
Speaking before the first Ma
tional Conference on Educational
Broadcasting, meeting at the May
flower Hotel, Secretary Ickes
pointed out that radio is one Of
the most important Of the mod
ern factors in education. He stated
that often the advertisements in
conjunction with programs are
too blaring and he called for a
reasonable and satisfactory bal
lance" in the advertising state
ments made with both popular
and educational programs.
Hits Propaganda
He declared that radio has a
regimenting tendency and that
educators should strive to main
tain individuality. He praised the
round-table broa beasts given
weekly from the University of
Chicago as one of the best edu-
cational broadcaSts. He also de-
clared that Government agencies
should not be permitted to broad
cast propaganda unless such prop
aganda met the highest of educa-
tional and interest standards.
Aiming S. Prall, chairman of
the Fe deral Communication
Commission, told conference dele
gates that America would not
tolerate a receiving set tax"
He said:
ut is my personal opinion
that American listeners would
not stand for the payment of
a receiving set tax. It is my
judgment that it would be most
unpopular in this country. 1t
is not the American way of &C
cOmplishing things"
Mr. Prau stated Cnat the FEC
is supporting the movement for a
comprehensive plan for educa-
tion by radio.

DR.. George F. Zook, president Of
the American Council on Educa-
ton and chairman of the execu-
tive committee of the conference,
praised radio as one of the most

BARBER POSTS
$1OO: REWARD

They can throw stencil bombs at
Charles Griffith'S barber shop, but
they can't make him take it lying
down.
Griffith runs a shop at 4O6a
Ninth st. N. w. Recently he de-
cided to keep open Sundays, in
opposition to union rules. YeSter-
day sedan full of men rode by
his place of business and let go
with a stencil bomb which tenn
porarily made the shop untenable.
Today, admitting his anger and
expressing the belief that the deed
was done by a group of men who
resented his decision to stay open
Sundays, Griffith offered 500 re-
ward to any person who can sup
ply information leading to arrest
and conviction Of those reSpon-
Sible.
Three other Washington barber
shops have been similarly bombed
in the last four weeks. The others
are located in the $500 block Of
Georgia Ave. N. W., the 400 block
of East Capitol st. and the 400
block of New York Ave. N. w.
IntimationS that all four bomb
inc were caused by difficulties
over union status were made by
police when it was reported by
them that, at the time of the in
cidents, not any of the proprie-
tors was affiliated with the local
union.
While BARRIERS Union officials,
including Phillip Cello, chairman
Of the local branch Of the bar
berS' national organization, and
Charles j. Bovello, former chair
man, emphataically stated that
the local union would not sane
ton any such methods as forms
Of reprisal. indications that dis
gruntled group within the organi-
zation might be responsible were
limited.
