German tachnicians have arrlVeo
at Bilbao to take over the rlch
mining region and large smelling
works seized By the National 81
armies along tie west hang OF the
Ncrvion river. it was reported TO-
day.
Other groups Of German en-
gineers were said TO be at WORK II
Bilbao reorganizing telephone
and street car services disrupted
bv the NationaliStS' long siege OF
the Basque capital.
After Bilbao has been restored
to normalcy, it was reported, the
German technicians will put the
naval construction yarGS near
Observation-Disclosures seaport on
the Bay Of BiScay-in order.
The Loyalist government at
Valencia has charged repeatedly
that Germany is anxious to OBJ
tain control of the rich Bilbao
mimi area to ease the pinch OF
her raw materials shortage. 1t was
this Fascist greed that caused
Fuehrer Adolf Hitler to send
scores of German warplaneS
against the BaSques. LoyallStS
said.
This is a German war in all
respects: the siege of Bilbao prov
cd that" said Julian zugazagol-
tia. Loyalst minister of interior.
The Nationalist armies of Gen
eraliSsiro Francisco Franco. con-
tinuing their mopping up opera
tionS around SeStao and Bara-
caddo on the west bank OF the
Nervion. announced that the in
dustrial railroad was under their
control.
The railroad joins the mines,
mostly iron ore. with the Neryion
docks.
Although the German engineers
were reported to have taken over
the mines and smelling works.
Frances headquarters at Sala-
manca indicated that it would use
Bilbao's mineral riches to force
recognition from Europe'S major
powers, starting with Great Brit
ain
British capital controlled many
of the mines and smelterS before
BilbaO's fall. but Franco now re-
fuses to recognize any British in
tereStS.
The British embassy here was
informed by Salamanca that Bill
baoS mines would be ready to re-
sumo the export Of ore within 10
days and that the Nationalist
government was ready TO negoti-
ate for shipments.
The communication left little
doubt that the price Of the ore
was recognition Of Frances in
srrgenCy as the legal government
of Spain.

developed some crews that won
the service championship.
Three boats have been ordered
for the Seventh District, Com
mander Sullivan said yesterday,
and practice will begin as soon as
they arrive. 1t has not yet been
decided where they VII be sta
toned.
There will be races between Of
ficers and men and between var
iouS sections of the district. and
after q good enough crew has
been developed there will be races
with crews from other districts
and from the cutters.
From what I know of the men
in the Seventh District said the
new commander, l believe we
can put out a crew that W. II trim
any crew in the Service"
The officers of the district, who
are well acquainted with the ply
Sical fitness and rowing ability of
the men in the district, will re-
commend certain men. And these
men, if they are interccted and
are W ling to race, will be tried
out. No additional pay is involved
and those Cn the crews will row
only for the sport of it. Each boat
carries 10 men oarsmen and a
coXSWain.
Commander Sullivan also indi-
Gated that he N ght have a swim
ming team organized in this dis
trict.
It is said that it was thru his
splendid efforts in putting on
boat races, swimming races, cap
size drills, etc, that the famous
Oh ncoteague Fony-PenningS were
revived several years ago after
they had dWindled in popularity
and were about to be suspended.

and gold filings could generate
enough current to regulate the
electric lights in OsWego, N. Y"
Cancer experts, peering into
mouths in search Of causes of the
dises3e, discovered many citizens
had their teeth studded with cop
per, zinc, alum mum. tin, silver,
gold, carbon and mercury,
These metals, brought in con-
tact through acids in the mouth,
set up a constant electric current.
What happens, according to
Dr.. Solomon, is that the INNER
sion of the two metals in the sali-
va of the mouth sets up a simple
galvanic battery
While folks who wear large
Jumps of gold in their mouth may
suffer some slight embarrassment,
the doctor said, the ult maze re-
suit will be 4 much healthier
mouth than with any other metal.
Ordinarily, the cancer research
men pointed out, most serious
LESSONS, such as chronic ulcer,
leukoplakia and cancer, may not
appear for many months, some
times 10 to 25 years after the ele-
ments constituting an electric
battery have been placed in the
mouth"
For this reason ant: cancer
groups have started a campaign
to warn people to stick to one
kind of hardware from the begin
ming and avoid "one of the most
widespread causes of cancer in
the mouth"
This simple kind of alertness",
said DR.. Solomon, should be able
to reduce the death rate and in
cidence of this disease consider
ably"

"Star of the First Water"

The limpidity and luSter of pre-
cious stone are sometimes referred
to in this phrase; a diamond "of the
first water" is one perfectly pure
and transparent. By extension, al
most anything of the highest quality
may be spoken of as "of the first

D. {. LIBRARY
BILL BACKED

OvercroWded conditions at the
central library building at Eighth
and K Streets Northwest, were
cited today by Librarian George
F. Bowerman, as Representative
Ross Collins CD, of Mississippi,
prepared to appear Wednesday be-
fore the House District Committee
in defense of $2.5O0,0oO library bill.
DR.. Bowerman, in a statement is
sued from the Public Library,
pointed out that for 10 years he
he'd been calling attention to the
"inadequacy' OF the present build
ing, "built IS years ago to serve
a population of 100000, to care
for the needs of a population now
estimated at over 100000"
Overcrowding, he said, has
forced the removal Of the book
ordering, cataloguing and binding
departments to building a mile
away from the main library. He
pointed out that if the library is
forced to move from the Ford
Building, where these activities are
now conducted, the possibility of
finding new quarters is extremely
doubtful.
The Collins bill provides for an
appropriation of $2,5o0,000 for pur-
chase of a site and construction of
a modern building west of Six
tenth Street and north of Penn
Sylvania Avenue.
DR.. Bowerman Endorsed the Col
Inns bill, proposing an amendment
which would make the library pro-
ject eligible for a Public Works
Administration grant.
