ST. LOUIS, Oct. 10. tUP).-
Results of eight years experiment
tation and exploration into the
causes Of trachoma by the Wash

mission here have proved that the
dread disease Of the eye is an in

Findings of the experiments

in reaching the conclusion that

U,S.Could Defend
Few Areas From
War Air Raiders
Civilians as Helpless as
Chinese, Spaniards in
Extended Attacks

RALEIGH, Oct. 10. (UP).-
Successful as the army-civilian
maneuvers in this area proved, a
high war department official SAID
last night aerial attacks on the
United States over any length OF
time would prove as disastrous to
civilians as those in China and
Spain.
The army has two aces up its
sleeve for civilian protection, a
warning net and the use of black
outs, but these would be imprac-
ticable over large areas for more
than d few weeks at a time, ana
in ii lengthy war only the most
important centerS could be pro-
tected, the official said.
At present, anti-aircraft arti-
lery and defense planes are COM
pletely inadequate" for defense
purposes and could protect only a
few of the more important indus
trial and heavily populated CEN
tiers, he said, while other towns
"would have to bear the brunt OF
the attacks unless civilians evolve
their own defense programs"
"There is no doubt about ELL
cheney of the warning net as
SUCH" the official said, "becauSe
in the war games not one single
enemy plane flew over the ma
neuver district without detection
The invaders whereabouts were
known in Fort Bragg from within
few minutes after they entered
North Carolina.
".And there is no doubt about
efficiency of 'blackout. lnVad-
ing planes repeatedly lost their
bearings in the maneuvers and
were forced to return to the light
ed areas outside the darkened
zone to reorientate themselves.
But constant observation by
civilians as during the four hour
war periods of the maneuverSS
would be impossible in time OF
war. A system would have to be
found for alert observers in each
sector and at present we have no
such system. None was attempted
here because of the great eX-
pense of long distance calls"
The army officer said it would
be necessary to build up a means
of alerting observers only in sec
tons where the raiders might be
expected, based on the first few
reports from the sector edge OF
the warning net. This task, he
said, probably would depend on
coast guard stations which now
maintain 24-hour lookout service
for shipping.

ESTATE RIVER
PARKWAY RID.
BEING MAPPED
Scenic Highway Proposed
From Minnesota to
New Orleans

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 10. tUP)-
Basic plans for a 2,Ooo-m''e
scenic highway along the west
shore of the Mississippi river from
Lake Itasca in Minnesota TO New
Orleans have been announced py
the Interstate Parkway Planning
committee. ..-.-I of
10 members from each OF hVe
states-Minnesota, Iowa, Arkan-
sas Missouri, and Louisiana. 1t Is
working to make the dream OF Il
river parkway into tour-lane
concrete highway which has. ten
tatively been christened the Mis-
sissippi River Parkway.
The plans call for the parkway
to be laid out along the river. Al
though much of the high water
line is owned by railroads it will
run along this land as much as
possible. The highway will follow
the edge of the bluffs but where
ever the river makes lengthy
bend it will cut across from lands
to reduce The mileage.
The route will also be governed
bv history and bridgeheads, it will
connect with every bridge on the
II ver, and will be routed through
all national parks, state parks and
conservation preserves along the
river.
The parkway will be principally
for pleasure. With a right-of-way
of several hundred feet the road
will be handicapped with trees,
bushes and flowers native to the
river area. Traffic will travel on
four lanes Of pavement, which
will be divided by a narrow strip
of parkway to insure rapid and
safe movement of both north and
south bound traffic.
According to the plans the ques-
ton of elevation will be second
airy. The highway will wind up
the bluffs and dip into the valleys
on the. theory that view of the
river is well worth a grade.
Stiff grades and long milea2es
along the winding river are eX-
pected to discourage use of the
super-highway by truck drivers
Transport vehicles will be expect
ed to use the more direct lines
available.

assistants discovered that the IN,

mass through laboratory filters,
although not readily. In % ex--
ncriments the virus passed
Though the filters only three
times. That the filtrate was IN
fictitious was proved by innoculat-
ing monkeys which contracted
trachoma.
Dr.. Julianellc said that since
bacteria was nearly always pres
ent in trachomatous cultures OBJ
tanned for study from persons if
flicted with the disease and, due
to the irregularity with which ac-
tive filtlates were obtained, the
commission set out to find other
means of eliminating bacteria as
Il factor.
EXPERIMENT WITH
RABBITS
Rabbits, insusceptiblc to ira
choma, were inoculated with ira
chomatouS material and from
them were obtained bacteria free
tissues which at the same time
preserved the trachoma infection.
Of 20 of these experiments per-
formed, II were successful.
In addition, DR.. Julianelle said,
the experiments showed that ira
choma is a disease Of low ineffec-
tivity-either repeated contact or
large doses are necessary for
tansmisison. The virus has feeble
powers of propagation and its eff.
feet is limited to the conjuctiva of
the eye. Only in man does it
cause a typical infection. The ex-
pei iments form of the disease in

DR.. Julianelle said that many
attempts were made in various
mediums to cultivate the trachoma
virus in the laboratory but with
out success. He said more than
600 cultures were attempted, but
in no instance was it possible to
infect monkeys with the culture
material.

falsely to an alibi. There we're no none
tarily pliable "experts" to lie from the
witness stand. There were no conscience
less attorney-criminals, eager to advise
the crimester both before and after
arrest and to resort to foul methods to
insure his freedom. And there were no
jailors, willing, for price, to be hit
lightly over the head with piece ofiron,
and remain unconscious" long enough
to aid the flight" of the desperate man
who had just ESCAPED" Those things
seldom happen in fiction. But, unfor-
tunately, they occur too often in real
life.
Therefore, law enforcement must be
ready to battle all of these means of easy
freedom, most ofwhich occur after arrest.
To that end, science is being called upon
more and more by law enforcement
everywhere in an effort not only to
effect the capture of wanted man, but,
what is more important, to secure his
conviction.
Today, the chase of wanted criminal
is conducted along two distinct lines.
One is the old and familiar process based
on the formula, "from information re-
ceived." The other is scientific building
up of tiny bits of information having to
do with the wanted mans habits, his
likes, his dislikes, his mode of living,
his range of acquaintances - in short, a
life directory of his every action, thought
and mannerism, which will naturally
narrow the circle of search.
Beyond this, however, there is the
building up.of evidence which cannot
be contraverted in court.
In the Federal Bureau of 1nvestiga-
ton, for instance, there is maintained
what is known as the Technical Labora-
tory. The resources and facilities of this
laboratory are at the command of law
enforcement officers everywhere, and,
day by day, the calls upon it grow heav-
ier. Here one may obtain impartial,
scientific reports on anything from hand
writing comparisons to highly compli-
