POPE SUFFERS
NEW PAINS
IN HANDS
By FRANK GERVAST

VATICAN CITY, Jan. 29 QN.S).
Attacks Of pain in the Pope's hands
and right shoulder today con-
firmed fears that the paralysis
which developed first in his legs
is slowly spreading through his
entire body.
These stabs Of agony caused a
sleepless night, and this morning
the Pope appeared extremely worn.
Noting that they have begun to
lose their power to ease the Holy
Fathers suffering, DR.. Aminta Mil
ami Is reported heSitant to continue
the use of opiates.
Renewed pains indicated that
paralysis Is progressing toward a
condition diagnosed by DR.. Milanl
as hemiplagia, or paralysis OF one
half the body's nervous system.
While the Pope could lie in such
q condition for a relatively long
period, his doctors chief concern
is caused by the fact that pains
are also now manifest in the left
hand, pointing to the fact that
paralysis is now setting in on the
"heart side"
An attack Of paralysis in the
heart region, medical authorities
said, would kill the Pontiff imme-
diately.
Since he became seriously Ill
nearly two months ago, the Pope
has lost 20 pounds weight.

Benjamin F. Dove Recalls Many Years in Haz
ardous Fire Department Post He
Served With Bravery

The boyhood ambition Of Benja-
man Franklin Dove was to be a
fireman. And it was achieved
when he left the family home in
Southern Maryland and joined the
District Fire Department.
He gave many years OF merito-
rious service before he was retired
in 1884, and was cited on several
occasions for making reScues at
the risk of his own life.
He narrowly escaped death in
an apartment house fire when he
was overcome by smoke, but the
arrival of Chief Donohoe brought
him assistance.
He had another narrow escape
at an ice cream factory fire, when
a hose pulled from the nozzle,
leaving him in a room surrounded
by fire and nothing to fight it
with.
The worst fire he recalls was
the burning of the temporary
wards at Walter Reed Hospital in
1921, when the firemen had a dit.
ficult time in rescuing the invalid
soldiers.
Later he was appointed engineer
OF No. "a Engine Company, and in
vhis capacity ceased active fire
fighting but was responsible for
getting water to fight the fire.

England and the widespread sup
port that it commands, subsidies
were reduced in amount steadily
as building and financing costs
decreased.
a. Carefully advanced and
honestly administered subsidies
do not hold up building costs in
the face Of conditions normally
leading to decreases.
"5. Slum clearance is the
most difficult part of lOwrental

be directly attacked until expert
ence in building methods and in
standards has been gained in
other types of lOw-cOSt housing.
sc. The amount of improve

rental housing and expecting
the lower income groups to fill

dOned by the middle class is
relatively small.
80. With a reasonably high
general standard of efficiency
and honesty in public office,
public housing can be ecOnOmi-
cally constructed and managed.
IS. Relative immObility Of
population and the security Of
a minimum rent-paying ability
by unemployment insurance
and other means are both
strong supports for any pro-
gram of lOw-rental housing.
The United States probably will
approach English conditions in
these respects in the years to
come.

BATTLEsHIP VERSUS PLANES

The keel of the first of the new $780,.
100000 battleships was laid last week at
the New York Navy Yard and that of the
other will be laid at the Philadelphia
Navy Yard in the near future.
Battleships come high in dollars but
if war occurs they will be worth their cost
and if war does not come to the United
States one of the main reasons for peace
will be the fleet of modern battleships
that the Navy has for use if needed In
such case, the battleships will be cheap
insurance
The average man, however can't get
it ut-of his head that battleships are
worthless because he has been led to be-
lieve that one or two airships can send
them to the bottom by dropping a few
well-placed bombs. For example, one
writer wants to know whether it would.
be wiser for the government to use the,
$120,000,000 for airplanes, rather than
battleships, citing the fact that, for this.
money, the Navy could get many planes.
The answer is to be found in the con-
struction of battleships by all the leading
powers of the world. Moreover a plane.
carrying about ton of bombs, cannot hit
battleship today with anything like the
accuracy of a 16-inch naval gun, which
hurtles ton-projectile through the air at
force sufficient to penetrate heavy armor
and timed to explode after penetration.
~" AS we get it, planes flying high, can
, only drop their bombs toward an object
while big guns, from a distance of about
fifteen miles, direct their fire. 1t is true
that power diving has increased the posi-
bility of direct hits on battleships but it
has also increased the chances of destruc
ton for the airplane.s ton-bomb, hitting
a battleship, will hardly do the damage
that ton-projectile will accomplish, and
that is the final answer. Besides, bat
tleship is built to take as we'll as to give
punishment.
Airplanes are undoubtedly very val
liable in warfare and even in naval fight
ing 1t would be mistake to assume,
however, that the plane has rendered bat
tleships or other naval craft obsolete. This
may be true in future years, if planes ever
are big enough to carry big guns, but just
now the battleship rules the waves.

NAMING AMERICA

Modern science and research are re-
pealing so much of what the older genera
ton was taught in school that we may well
conclude with Josh Billings that ''it is just
as well not to know so much as to know so
much that amt So"
The old text books told us, for ex-
ample, that America was named for Am
ergo Tor Americus) Pespucci, an Italian
explorer who closely followed Columbus
and stole Christopher's thunder.
Now comes an ancient document UNI
earthed in Prague, which is said to be a
report of his adventures by Vespucci him.
self, in which the navigator signed his first
name as Alberico. Thus, if he were to
have been honored in naming the new con-
tinent, it should have been called AL
berica.
But further complication has arisen
through the assertion of another authority
that an Indian tribe of Columbus's time
called themselves by a5name which sound
ed very much like America" and that
perhaps the New World got a legitimate
name after all.
Anyway. at this late day it probably
doesn't make much difference, except to
those who like to argue about such things.

Peace has most always been obtained
at the price of war which Is force. Trying
to obtain it by persuasion only aggravates
the situation and invites aggression. Peace
makers as a rule become involved just like
the litigants, often getting the worst
~-of it.
