|"ROSE BURGLAR"
FACING 1O-YEAR.
Term IN SOUTH.
d. C. Police Content to
Let New Orleans Act

The strong arm Of the law
turned the thorns of the rose
burglar" on himself today.
1t may be ten years before
Washington police will see Rich
ard Bennett Heck, 18, the So
called rose burglar" wanted here
in connection with a series of
housebreakings.
For Heck, in New Orleans city
jail, faces trial there on q charge
of assaulting a policeman with
a gun before he is returned here
to answer the housebreaking
charge, Washington police officials
were informed today.
STICK BEATS GUN
Inspector Bernard W. Thomp-
son received official notice that
the houSebreaking warrant against
Heck would be filed as a detainer
by New Orleans police.
The assault charge, coming from
Heck's alleged attempt to "get
the drop" on Policeman Matt
Nolan in a New Orleans alley,
carries a five-to-ten-year penalty
with conviction. Nolan's night
stick beat Heck's gun to the
punch, and the arrest followed.
Heck indicated in New Orleans
that he is more than willing to
take his chances with Washington
justice. and offered to return here
without an extradition fight.
THOMPSON CONTENT
Inspector Thompson, however,
indicated today that he was sat
iSfied" to let the New Orleans au-
thorities deal with Heck first,
since IF we brought him back
here, he might escape with a COM
paratively light sentence"
In any event, Heck will still have
to answer to police here, whatever
the disposition Of his case in New
Orleans.
Meanwhile, a 16-year-old girl
WHO ran away from nome TO be
Heck's companion during hsi reign
of terror, was home with her
parents today.
GIRL CLEARS SELF
After questioning at the
Women's Bureau, the police de-
clared that they were satisfied
she had no connection with the
holdupS and burglaries in the
Potomac Heights section attrib-
uted to the rose burglar"
The girl told police that she
accompanied Heck to Baltimore
and Atlantic City, and then left
him while he was asleep at the
resort city.

GREAT NATIONAL.
HEALTH DRIVE IS

ANA, However, Fights
U. S. Entry in Medicine

'"The opening gun for public
health on a national front has
been fired"
Surgeon General Thomas Par
ran, of the U. S. Public Health
Service, said that today, follow.
ing the closing Of the National
Health Conference, called here at
the suggestion of President RooSe-
velt to consider all phases of the
problem of bettering the health Of
the nation and supplying adequate
medical care.
QUESTION OF HOW FAR"
Enthusiastic over the three-day
conference, which was attended by
leaders in the field Of medicine,
sociology, business and labor, DR..
Parran said:
THE only disagreement which
exists, I believe, is en- how fast
and how far we should go and
how the expenses should be
divided between the Federal,
State and local governments"
It was indicated, however, that
the program calling for expendi-
ture of hundreds of millions Of
dollars in a 10-year plan will be
opposed by the American Medical
Association.
FISHBEIN'S ATTACK
DR.. Morris Fishbein, editor Of
the Journal of the A. M. A., adj
dressed the conference yesterday
and lashed out with an attack on
the effort to inject Government
into the medical profession.
The profession is able to care
for the sick of the nation, he
asserted, and held that the Gov.
ernment should interest itself in
supplying food, shelter, clothing
and jobs instead of interesting
itself in the field of medicine.
This view was opposed by .
number of speakers. DR.. Frank
Graham, president of the Uni
versity of North Carolina, ex-
pressed the hope that the A. M. A.
would do nothing to stop or slow
down the contemplated health
drive"

new empioye should start pointing out things to the man who hired him. It is not only Q sign of good manners, but of good sudgment, for on employe to keep his opinions and ideas to himself until he Is sure they are sound, and haven't been tried out before.
 Tn spite of movies where under. lings get by with shouting take it or leave it' at old-so-and-so," no young man or woman stands Q Chinamans chance of being Ser- iously considered for advancement unless he shows by unfailing court esy his respect for the man above him. That lets out familiarity, chip on the shoulder attitude, siouchiness and inattention.
 It's important too that an offce worker get along with his associates An employer can't afford to pro. mote to an executive position @ man or woman who antagonizes those around him.
 The best way for on employe to kGV NiUIik WILL daiy oooVSasSe s' to do all he is supposed to do and a little bit more, without grumbling, And not to compare his own job with anyone else's-or let himself feel picked on. If the job. doesn't suit him, there are only two sensible things to do; tell his immediate su- perior what Is wrong and then do the best he can. Or quit. Com blaming about his job to people who can't do anything about 1t is not a waste.of time but oangerous prac- tice.
 Even if he dislikes the people in his office, 1t is still important for him to get along with them amicably. Good manners can man age that as nothing else can.
 If a young man or woman is pleasant, doesn't disturb the work of others or run them down, can be counted on to do his own work quietly, doesn't tell the personal de- tails of his life oi encourages others to tell things they might regret, is friendly without trying to be every body's big brother, his business man. ners will never stand in the way of his business ability.

Fundamental Subjects Most
 Important In Education
Elementary Schools Should Not Split Courses Along Purely Academic and Vocational Lines
By Olive Roberts Barton

out, There was some allowance made for those who wished commer- cial work instead of academic prepa- ration, and sometimes there was latitude in one direction. A boy could take Greek instead of Latin, perhaps, or logic instead of chemis- try. But that just about ended it.
 There were, of course, no voca- tionai high schools. One of the hot test debates I ever pus up with was Q high school principal who insisted that c smattering of mechanics and q dab of domestic science was the height of vocational training. And l insisted with equal fervor that the time would come when high schools would either have to put up or shut Up, unless they built some Of their schools with the intention of teach- ing children how to make living apart from the field of liberal arts.
 He thought was most radical, I thought he lacked vision. Why continue to teach children dead lan- guages when 1t was life they had to fight? Since then 1t has all been arranged. Today boys and girls are learning, and learning well, trades that will be of service. The cultural courses, too, offer almost any as- sortment of subjects.
 Foundation of Education
 However, grade schools, I think, will never be able to split their courses with any success. And If parents would stop to think, the things the child gets in elementary school are basic foundations that every literate person needs.
 It would be a happy time, no doubt, for everybody if the routine could be broken down into just what every pupil likes best or what his parents wish to him to concen- trate upon. But except in the case of the backward child, and, of course, the mental deviate, the school body as a whole will have to learn what 1t is taught.

 Hair that is swept upward and piled high atop your head as grand mothers was ought to be as glossy and gleamingly healthy as grands mother kept hers. There are no two ways about it--dingy dull, struggling locks just do not lend themselves to the newest hair styles.
 Fortunately, having shiny, lovely hair does not depend on how much money you have to spend on scalp treatments. Rather, 1t depends on the amount of time you spend using your hair brush each and every night. This is as true today as 1t was years and years ago when grandmother was the belle of the ball. She gave her hair one hum dred licks with @ good brush every night. And so must you. That is, if you want to have locks as lovely as hers.
 Remember to hold the brush lightly in your hand and to brush upward and away from the scalp. This method cleans and polishes every hair, stimulates the scalp and, in addition, helps to train the hair to stay upswept. Furthermore, up- ward brushing will not hurt 0 good finger wave.
 Naturally, if you have . bad case of dandruff or If persistent brush- ing does not seem to correct too dry or an excessively oily condition, by all means sec Q scalp specialist and arrange for treatments.
 You can massage warm olive oil Into your scalp, wrap 0 towel around your head for ct least one hour, then shampoo in the regular manner, using Q liquid soap and rinsing thoroughly. Or you can get @ reconditioning oil.
 Simply brush your hair and rinse with hot water. Then part hair In sections and massage the slightly heated reconditioning oil into scalp. Wiring Q towel out in hot water and wrap 1t around your head. When the. towel is cool, dip 1t in hot wa- ter again and repeat. Afterward, rinse hair in very warm water un- til every trace of the oil is removed. or, If you like, shampoo with liquid soap, then rinse.

I tried to explain to MT. Miller that 1t would not be altogether pos- sible for his son to skip arithmetic and give more time to music.
 Mir. Miller plays in an orchestra and he intends to give William Q musical education. So I was not surprised, as you may be, to hear that c father instead of Q mother made the comment that the public school should concentrate more on the arts ard less on the "R'S." was interested to hear, however, that he thought 1t would be an easy mat ter for each child to select his group of studies, just as the students in high school are permitted to do.
 What . chaos that would be, and how expensive. As 1t is, selective subjects inadvanced school have inc creased the cost of education con- aiderably.
