Upsetting all current rumorS that he would take . lengthy vacation from the airways, Fred Allen has signed a new contract with his present sponsor as star of the iden- tical Wednesday evening flill-hour show on which he has been heard for the last three years. The con- tract calls for a straight two years as headliner of the Town Hall To- night" program and will carry him through the spring Of 1889. Allen and Portland Hoa have left for Maine where they will spend the first part of the summer and then go to Hollywood to make a picture, returning to the air in the fall.
 Peanuts have economic value
 other than keeping baseball and
 circus fans happy during tense
 moments. Edgar A. Guest,
 poet philosopher of the air, will
 prove this point on Tuesday,
 July 20, when he presents Dr.
 George Washington Carver,
 botanist at Tuskegee Normal
 and Industrial Institute, Ala
 bama, as guest star on his 'It
 Can Be Done" program, to be heard over the NBC.Blue net
 work at S:30 ?. m. EDST. Dr.
 Carver, born of slave parents in
 1864, Is credited with having
 done much for the southern
 agriculture. He Is known as a
 botanist, biologist, geologist, ag-
 riculturist, and chemist. He will
 talk about the lowly peanut
 from which he has developed
 more than 300 products includ-
 ing milk, buttermillx, cheese, ink,
 lard, stains, paper, pharmaceu-
 tical products, flour, meal and
 the famous peanut oil which Is
 now being used with much Suc-

 It's not so much the difIicuify of locating competent players of lute and Tyre that's bothering Victor Bay as he seeks musicians for Columbia's Shakespeare Cycle, it's how to find someone to perform on the serpent To the layman, that would seem indeed a problem, but, as Mr. Bay explains, this particular serpent is . wind instrument commonly used in the time of the Bard and thus particularly appropriate for helping build musical backgrounds for the dramas. Hence, if you are a virtu0sO of the serpent, Bay wants to talk to you. Or, as far as that goes, if you are pretty good on the virginal or viola al gamba, better get In touch with him. He's going to use those too.

FATHER RESCUES
SON FROM DEATH
William H. Larson, Sr., Injured
as He Snatches Child Away
From Truck.

Quick action by his father saved
2-year William H. Larson. jr.. from
death or serious injury beneath the
wheels of an onrushing truck this
morning, when the elder Larson
snatched the boy from the vehicles
path and was hurled to the street
himself an instant later with deep

Father and son were standing at
Seventh and jackson streets north

came around the corner. Just before
he was struck, Larson saw the danger
and showed the child out of the way.
At Sibley Hospital 10 stitches were
taken in Larson's forehead and he was
treated for conclusion. He may have
fractured skull, it was said.
The child was taken to his home,
At TOO Jackson street northeast. He
had slight cuts about the head and

Decisions on numerous proposed
changes in the 1888 District appro-
prlation bill will be reached tomor-
row by the Senate subcommittee in
charge Of the measure headed BY
Senator Thomas, Democrat. of Okla
homa.
For two hours this morning the
subcommittee made a final resume of
the main questions at issue. in con-
ference with the Commissioners and
other District officials The subcom-
mlttee then adjourned until 10 am.
tomorrow to vote on the various alter
atoms in the bill suggested either bv
the municipal authorities or civic del
egations.
Reductions May Be Restored.
While no conclusions have been
reached, there are strong indications
the subcommittee will restore most of
the reductions the House made in
budget estimates. In fixing the total
Of the bill at s45 5,228,000 the House
trimmed more than million dollars
from budget figures, scattered
throughout the service.
1t is understood that during the past
three weeks of hearings the general
policy of the Commissioners has been
TO recommend Senate adherence to
budget figures. If all budget recon-
mendations are followed. the bill would
total more than s46. 100000.
In addition, the Senate group has
before it for decision tomorrow the
question of whether to raise the un-
employment relief fund above the
budget limit of sl.465 900. Civic dele
cations disagreed on this question dur
ing the hearings, one group of organi-
cations urging an additional million.
while others opposed the increase.
Bearing on New Program.
The action of the subcommittee to-
morrow will have an important bear
ing on the size of the new District tax
program now being drafted in the
House. The House is working on a
series of bills TO raise S6,149 900, which
is merely the impending deficit for
next year as the appropriation bill now
stands. lSee tax story on Page BID
Whatever the Senate adds to the
supply bill, outside of the separate gas
tax bill and Water Department items,
will call for additional taxation, as
suming that the Federal payment re-
mains at the SIS, 900 900 lump sum fixed
by the House.
1t is possible, therefore, that the
amount of new tax revenue required
may be between s7o00,O00 and s8,000,-
900, depending on how many increases
are allowed in appropriation items.
The final total, however. will be de-
termined in conference between the
two Houses after the Senate acts.
Aside from money changes. there
are number of controversial provisos
in the House bill, transferring NIL
nicipal functions from one Office 10
another, and the Senate Subcommit-
tee also will shape its course tomorrow
on these issues. There is known to be
sentiment in the Senate group against
reorganizing municipal activities by
attaching riders to the appropriation
bill.

today ended its long-standing quarrel
with its parent body, the Second So
cialist International. and propoSed a

The startling move to bury the

Socialists and International League of

retary general of the Komintern an
nounced, was the direct result of the
mbardment of the Spanish city of
Almeria by German warships.
"A united workers front for material
as we'll as moral support of the Span
ish workers must-and will-be estab-
lished as the answer to Almeria, -
Dimitroff declared.
Dimitro8 as spokesman for the
KominterE-the international organi-
sation of the Communist parties of
all nations-proposed formation of a
joint commission from his own group,
the Second International, and the Ma
tional League Of Labor Unions.
The proposal was prompted he said.
by an appeal from the Communist and
Socialist labor union parties of Spain
FOR united front to save Spain"
BY mobilization of the masses of
workers, Dimitroff said, 'the British
and French governments would be
compelled to take energetic steps
against the Intervention of German

He added: Germany and italy
would be compelled to withdraw troops

action would accomplish the victory
