DR.. Marvin Halts Plans at G. W.,
but Regular Health Channels
Are Available.

Students at George Washington
University scheduled to take Wasser-
man blood tests today as part Of an
undergraduate campaign against the
social diseases will not be allowed to
take the tests as planned under an
order from DR.. Cloyd Heck Marvin,
president of the university.
DR.. Marvin explained, however, that
he has no objection to the students
taking the tests through the regular
health channels provided by the uni
versity.
Arrangements for these tests" he
said, were made by the students dur
ing my absence on vacation and con-
templated the use of fourth-year stu
dents at the Medical School, who are
not licensed physicians, in giving the
tests"
The president pointed out that,
should any of q thousand possible
accidents" occur, the university,
through its trustees, would be hell
responsible and would be liable,
through its charter provisions, to in
vestigation by the Attorney General.
The tests were scheduled to be
given in the Women's Building, which
is further forbidden by trustee regu-
lations, and laboratory facilities are
lacking, he added.
. "Dr. Daniel Borden, the university
health director, and his physicians
are ready and willing to give such
tests at any time at the request and
convenience Of students" the presi-
dent explained.

TOXIC, Dec. 7.-Tokio was IN .
state Of ecstatic frenzy today, await
ing the fall of Nanking.
Nevertheless, it was generally be-
lieved that the capture Of Marking
would not mean the end Of the
war. Japanese thought Generalissimo
Chang Kai-shek would concentrate
his forces in Human Province and at
tempt to continue fighting, with some
sort of aid from Soviet Russia.
The Japanese government was SAID
to be considering issuance OF a dec
laration withdrawing Japanese recog-
milton Of the Nanking government.
Such q declaration would mean that
Japan no longer recognized the regime
Of Chang as the true government OF
China.
Celebration Of Markings imminent
fall started last night. Police relaxed
closing laws and the downtown dis
trict of Toxic blazed with gaiety.
Crowds milled through the streets.
Cafes and restaurants were jammed
until we'll past midnight.
Throughout the night handbells
jingled endlessly as newsboys brought
fresh extras telling Of each new Japa-
nese advance.
The war Office buzzed. War Minister
Gen. Gen Sugiyama gave a banquet
where guests toasted the army's for
ward steps toward Nanking. Medals
decorations and swords glittered about
q giant table. Most Of the guests
remained until dawn.
Army staff officers huddled near
the war Office wireless where dots and
dashes chanted Of victory.
There were hysterical scenes at the
stock market. Shares rose rapidly
spurred by the impetus Of victory.

Clutchless Gasoline Motor Bus
Reported Free From Vibration
(Story on Page A-1.)

The motor when speeding runs a
pump that shoots . liquid against a
fluid f1ywheel" The faster the mo-
tor runs the greater the fluid pressure
and the greater the bus speed. At
idling speed the motor does not gen.
crate enough pump pressure to move
the flywheel, and the bus remains
stationary.
To start the bus when the motor is
idling, Mr.. Whitney explained, the
operator merely speeds his engine
To stop he reverts to idle speed and
applies the brakes To reverse he
uses gear shift. Vibration appears
to have been eliminated, he added

HIGH COURT HEARS
POWER LOAN ROW
ConstitutionaIity of Grants
for Plants Comes Up
for Argument.
BY JOHN H. CLINE.


Arguments on the constitutionality
OF Government loans and grants for
publicly owned nydroelectrlc plants
were taken up in the Supreme Court
today in cases brought by the Ala
bama and Duke Power Cos.
The court heard the Duke case .
year ago, but sent the matter back
to the lower courts for correction Of
procedural errors before deciding the
merits Of the controversy.
Convening after q two weeks va
cation yesterday, the justices divided,
five to four. in upholding the validity
Of a West Virginia gross receipts
tax on firms doing business within
the State under contract with the
Federal Government. The Washing
ton State occupation tax as applied
to the gross income Of persons under
contract with the United States for
work on Grand Coulee Dam also was
sustained by five to four vote.
Vinson to Study Decisions.
Chairman Vinson Of the House
Ways and Means Subcommittee
now preparing tax legislation said he
intends to study the decisions to de-
termine whether they open the way
for new Federal taxes. He withheld
comment pending completion of his
study.
In some quarters it was believed
the rulings would make possible taxa
ton of State workers and agencies
by the National Government and
similar taxation by the State gov
ernment of Federal incomes and agen-
cies. The language of the opinion
indicated, however, that the c6urt
would not uphold such taxes.
In another important ruling yes
terday the court gave the Depart
ment OF Justice authority to proceed
in the southern district Of New York
with litigation under the antitrust
act against the aluminium Co. Of
America.
The majority opinion in the West
Virginia case was prepared by Chief
Justice Hughes, Justices Brandeis,
Stone, Cardozo and Black concurring.
Held Valid Exaction.
Upholding the tax as levied on the
gross receipts Of the bravo Contract
ing Co. of Pennsylvania for work
done for the National Government in
West Virginia, the Chief Justice said ::
I'VE hold that the West Virginia
tax so far as it is laid upon the gross
receipts Of the respondent derived
from its activities within the borders
of the State does not interfere in any
substantial way with the perform
ance Of Federal functions and Is a
valid eXaction."
He asserted the tax is not laid upon
the Government, its property or its
officers; is not laid upon an instru-
mentality of the Government, is not
discriminatory and is not laid upon
the contract of the Government.
