city also is authorized to borrow for
enlarging Gallinger Hospital, the Lor-

Proposed amendments to the Col

would place this project in the list
Of Improvements for which the Dis
trict would be authorized to borrow
from P. w. A. The amendments were
recommended to Chairman Norton Of
the House District Committee by the
Board of Library Trustees, after ap-
proval by Representative Collins OF
Mississippi, author of the library bill
The fact that Representative Col
Inns and Senator Thomas, who handle
District appropriations in the House
and Senate, were made members of
the Presidents committee to study
future Government building needs has
given rise to the inference that that
committee would have In mind the

Windo,U Display Tells
Story Revealed by
X.Ray.

The tragedy Of neglect of and fail
TIRE to diagnose early cases Of tuber-
culosis is strikingly illustrated by the
District tuberculosis Association In q
window display at 1413 H street.
Attracting the eyes Of passers-by
are two electrically Illuminated X-ray
photographs Of the chests Of two small
children. Large placards tell the
story revealed by the X-ray.
One picture shows the lungs Of 4
normal, healthy child, while the Sec
ond reveals the ravages Of tubercu-
losis so clearly as to be evident to even
q layman. A placard says:
THE life Of child No. 2 could have
been saved by early discovery and
proper treatment"
The window display Is q feature Of
the early diagnosis campaign which
the association is conducting during
April and May. The association Is
anxious to emphasize that tubercu-
losis can be arrested and cured when
treatment Is begun during the early
stages OF the disease. Outstanding
early signs Of tuberculous infection,
the association declared, are weari-
ness, loss Of weight, lack OF appetite,
indigestion and . cough that hangs on.

BY the Associated Press.

OKLAHOMA CITY, April 10.-Rev.
W. D. Harvey, who testified before
the Senate Judiciary Committee on
President Roosevelt's Supreme Court
proposal, charged in an interview to-
day that communism exists openly
In the committees inquiry room and
In the State Department"
Harvey, whose criticisms Of the
proposal in sermons at Trinity Bap-
tst Church here precipitated the in
vitation to Washington, said "a bit
ter fight will be necessary to save
the Constitution.
"I have a manuscript as thick as
a telephone directory" he said, that
shows communism definitely exists in
the inquiry room, and learned from
conversation with State Department
employees that open and avowed Com
munists are working side by side In
the department.
'The proposal to pack the Supreme
Court has already resulted in a trend
toward lawlessness, which has mani
tested itself in sit-down strikes and
other disorders.
IF the proposal is enacted that
trend toward lawlessness and con-
tempt for the courts will spread and
we will have riots, bloodshed and
anarchy.
"In the face of such a condition,
Congress may pass law in 1910 based
on the emergency which will post
pone the presidential election and
hold President Roosevelt In Office.
"The Supreme Court, which would
then consist Of men ready to do the
bidding Of the President, would up
hold the law as constitutional"

School Program.
He said the pending five-year public
school program, which the Commits
sioners have not approved or sent ur
yet, was to be embodied in the S75,-
100000 program. 1t represents about
$4,000 900.
The long-range program originally
compiled by local officials in January
also included development of the
Municipal Center, court building
facilities, sewers, Fairgrounds, library
facilities and an outline of highway
improvements.
During the House hearings in Feb
ruary on the pending District appro-
priation bills for the next fiscal year
an outline also was given of the ma
jor items OF capital outlay the District
probably will have to provide for dur
ing the next decade. 1t also was
brought out in the House hearings
that for the 18-year period since 1920,
local appropriations for capital pur-
poses have amounted to a total of
Sl47,305,782, equal to an average an
nual capital expenditure Of s8,183,656
In addition to the items of new
construction mentioned above as hav-
Ing been included in the January tab
ulation, it was predicted during the
House hearings that the District S
future building requirements would
call for one or two new fire houses, a
new jail, enlargement of Gallinger
Hospital and more dormitories at the
work house.

In this connection, it was pointed
out yesterday that under the District
P. w. A. loan law of 1884 the Com

just mentioned, and that of the $1O,-
100000 total loan authorization in that
law, only s5,600,00O has been ad-
vanced, leaving balance of

High School and library fund. The
sum Of 100000 was appropriated for
both projects, with the stipulation
that the library should be under con-
troll Of the trustees of the District
Public Library. There was some ques-
ton as to the desirability Of having
both under the same roof.
"Oh, don't think that Is so VITAL"
Ballou told the board, "as long as they
are separate units. At any rate the
board still has the power to pass on
the plans when they are completed" !"
The board finally voted to ask the
Senate District Committee to add
100000 to the appropriation for
the Public Library which could be
given by that unit as its share in the
combined school-library construction.
II this were done, 1t was pointed out,
an identical sum could be transferred
from the Jefferson allotment and ap-
piled to the Banneker School con-
struction without changing the JET
ferson total Of 100000.
Deny Effort on Transfer.
Reaching the item of the transter
Of certain Fairgrounds from the
Municipal Playground Department
to the schools, the members made
official denial that they had made
any effort to have this transfer
effected.
Many people in the city are under
the impression that we went out and
stole money and Jurisdiction from
another governmental department" :"
asserted Mrs. Henry Grattan Doyle,
president Of the board. II want to
make it clear that the board never
asked for the transfer. The board
subscribed to the coordination prof.
ect between it, the District Play
ground Department and the National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission. We were, and still are, salts
fed with it,"
Henry I. Quinn, who was called
before the Appropriation subcom-
mittee, to answer questions con-
corning the work OF the Boys Clubs,
explained that any remarks he made
were entirely his own personal
opinion and that he was not repre-
senting the board.
Testimony from the hearings shows
that Lewis r. Barrett, District CO.
ordinator Of recreation, made the sug-
gestion himself, despite the co-ordinat-
ing agreement which had been entered
into by the board and the other two
units, Quinn asserted.
The members declared, however,
that II the transfer were made they
would make every effort to admins
trate the Fairgrounds well. The play
grounds concerned, 1t was pointed out,
are either adjacent to schools or near
them.

ting the assignment on sequel to
After the Thin Man." because Sc
quek are difficult to keep to the
standard set by their predecessors.
That's why he calls the proposed
third installment Way After the
Thin Man."
Van Dyke rather surprised his eight
early-rlSlng friends by his Willingness
to talk shop. He related the story
Of the Indian In Eskimo" who told
such tall tales Of his experiences in
the Arctic, where the picture was
made, that he developed into major
studio problem back in Hollywood.
The Indian, 1t seems, was given to
relating with a solemn mien how the
Eskimos played foot ball in the shadow
Of the North Pole, using Nome and
Juneau, Alaska, as goals According
to the last version Of the tale, Van
Dyke said, each team was composed
Of IL Eskimos with dog sleds.
"The teams had fine plays" the
Indian would rhapsodize. "and BEAU
tiful forward passes. They do things
big up there"
The chief objections to the Indians
dne tales, 1t seems, came from press
agents Of rival studios who thought,
perhaps, the Indian was stealing their
stuff.
In discussing his travels in Alaska
and elsewhere, Van Dyke took occa-

sion to list his four favorite cities, and
Washington was named, along with
San Francisco, London and Cairo. He
added that he believed Washington
was the most beautiful of all, and that

The director said he had no idea
who would get the Scarlet OHara
role in Gone With the Wind" but
insisted it would be unnecessary to use
an established star.
"The picture can stand on the pub
licity given the book" he said mot
a single star is needed. It's a great
spot, though, to make stars out of
unknowns by giving them principal
roles in this picture"
The gathering broke up as Van
Dyke received a telephone call from
a very old friend, Commissioner George
E. Allen, and accepted an invitation
to go to the races.
