TRAPPING OF DOG
WILL co T0COURT
Hearing Ordered on Right to
Protect Lawn in Plant
ing Time.

A Police Court hearing was ordered
today to test the right of a Chevy
Chase resident to set rat traps on his
lawn to discourage canine trespassers
during the Spring planting season.
The bearing was set for Wednesday
by Assistant Corporation Counsel
George D. Nelson after he received a
complaint from Christopher w. Duffy,
32l5 Jennifer street, a dog owner.
Nelson ordered summonses issued
for George w. Wells, 4221 Jennifer
street, who is alleged to have set three
traps to protect his flower beds, and
for various neighbors acquainted with
the circumstances Wells contended
the traps were not dangerous and, in
addition. had been removed.
A policeman from No. 8 precinct,
who investigated Duffys complaint,
told Nelson he had advised" Wells
against setting the traps, and had
returned again to find them still in
place, The officer said when he re-
turned third time the traps had
been sprung, but were still on the
lawn.

A. A. A. DEFENDS TREES

Opposition to the uprooting Of any
japanese cherry blossom trees around
the Tidal Basin in construction of
the Jefferson Memorial was expressed
today by the American Automobile
Association. Such an act would be
''unpardonable and unwarranted van
dalism," a statement of the associ-
alton declared

poured into Washington over the week

and such intercourse is commerce
within the meaning of the Constitu-
ton. Interstate communication of a
business nature, whatever the means
of such communication, is interstate

under the Constitution"
Strike Effect Cited.
Referring to the claim of the petit
toner that editorial employees such
as Morris Watson. a member of the
American Newspaper Guild, are re-
mote from any interstate activity and
their employment or tenure can have
no direct or intimate relation with
the course Of interstate commerce
the majority declared:
I'VE think, however, it Is obvious
that strikes or labor disturbances
amongst this class of employees would
have as direct an effect upon the ac-
tivities of the petitioner as similar
disturbances amongst those who oper-
ate the teietype machines or as 4
strike amongst the employees of tele-
graph lines over which petitioner 8
messages travel"
Directing himself next to the issue
of freedom of the press, Justice Rob-
erts declared fatty that the majority
holds the opinion that the statute
does not abridge the guarantees of the
first amendment.
A. P.'s Contentious Outlined.
Reviewing the contention of the
petitioner, Justice Roberts continued:
1T is insisted that the Associated
Press is in substance the press itself,
that the membership consists solely
Of persons who own and operate news
papers, that the news is gathered
solely for publica ton in the newspa-
pers of members.
STRESS is laid upon the facts that
this membership consists of persons
Of every conceivable political, economic
and religious view, that the one thing
upon which the members are united
is that the Associated Press shall be
wholly free from partisan activity on
the expressions of opinions.
THE conclusion which the petit
toner draws Is that whatever may be
the case with respect to employees in
its mechanical department it must
have absolute and unrestricted freedom
to employ and to discharge those who
like Watson, edit the news, thAt there
must not be the slightest opportunity
for any bias or prejudice personally
entertained by an editorial employe to
color or to distort what he writes. n

'-B" HELD LACKING IN DIET.
Chemist Cites Vitamin Theory Before
Chemical Society.


Chemical Society.
CHAPEL HILL, N. c., April IA
Vitamin B hunger may be sapping the
vitality of modern civilization.
The possibility that diabetes and
nephritiS, two of the scourges of
modern civilized life, are associated
with the deficiency of this elusive sub
stance was stressed before the Aneri-
can Chemical Society here today by
DR.. r. r. Williams, research chemist
of the Bell Telephone Co.
DR.. Williams, who first isolated and
synthesized this vitamin. which is best
known in connection with the Oriental
disease beri-beri, pointed out that the
bran coats of grain which commonly
are destroyed in the manufacture of
most cereal foods, are the chief sources
Of vitamin B in nature.
Recent experimental work, he
stressed, has indicated that the de-
ficiency may be significant factor in
both cancer and the widespread mental
disease dementia precox.
Our knowledge is yet meager," he
said, but ! venture to call attention
to the fact that although grain eating
is older than history. the practice OF
decorticating and degerminating
grains for human food is a product of
the machine age. 1t is reasonable to
suppose that modern trends in daily
habits have much to do with modern
trends in disease and physical defect.
I am thinking particularly Ct the rise
of such diseases as diabetes and
nephritis.
Experience indicates more and more
that the physiological function OF
vitamin B is required for the growth
and well-being of all living things,
both plants and animals"
Aside from grain hull, Dr.. Williams
said. the chief sources of vitanlin B in
diet are ripe peas, beans and lean pork
With the customary methods of boil
ing vegetables, he indicated, much of
their vitamin content may be de-
stroyed.

day to have defeated a Japanese fleet
in what was described as a major
naval engagement, ~ 4 IT,.
A spokesman for the Kwantung,

,belching clouds of smoke where it had
been hit by a bomb.

routes to Canton at a. m.
Though the warships rained shells
around the forts, the damage was said

IMPROVED GAS BY
AMERICAN OIL CO:
I. w. McCracken, Local
Distributor, Announces
Improved Gas Here

T. w. McCracken of the Henderson
Vulcanizing Company, American Oil
Company Distributor for Vance, War
rem, Granville and Franklin counties,
today announced the introduction of
an improved Amoco-Gas. The improV-
ed motor fuel, he said, has already
been distributed to American Oil Com
pany dealers and stations throughout
this territory and is now available for
motorists in this territory
New processes recently patented
and new equipment recently installed
in the American Oil Company refinery
at Texas City, Texas, are largely re-
sponsible for the improvements made
in Amoco.
Amoco was one of the very first
special motor fuels, being introduced
in 1915 This fuel made possible the
modern high-cOmpreSsion automobile
motor Amoco also made contributions
to the aviation industry-was used by
Clarence Chamberlin in his trans-At-
lantic flight to Germany. 1T was also
used by other flyers in trans-oceanic
hops.
American Oil Company spent mil
lions of dollars on improvements and
additions to their refinery in order
to take advantage of latest scientific
discoveries and inventions. These adj
ditions were recently made to what
was already the worlds largest and
most modern refining unit.
The improved fuel is 'being adver-
tised as "The greatest Amoco in the
history of the American Oil Company.
It is being advertised through large
list of daily newspapers from Maine
to Florida, including the Henderson
