Tests Show Women Mix
Driving and Drinking

Women combine drinking and
driving as much as men when the
number of women driving at various
hours of the day is considered. 1t.
F. M. Kreml of the Northwestern
University Traffic Institute, told the
Highway Research Board yesterday
at the closing session of it's 18th an
nual meeting
He based that finding on tests
made of 1920 drivers.
1t. Kreml said the highest per-
centage of drinking drivers occurs
in the early morning hours and over
the week end. The peak age for
drinking drivers Is from Is to 80, he
said the tests showed.
TT has not yet been effectively
and conclusively proved just how
important causative factor alcohol
is, and, because of the complexity of
the whole accident problem, it may
never be proved" the speaker said.
THE data gathered in this study,
however, point in one direction only.
They confirm a self-evident fact
that alcohol is major cause of auto
mobile accidents"
D. Grant Mickle. assistant director
of the Michigan State Highway De-
partment, told the board that the
traffic officers job "is no longer one
that can be carried out successfully
by the casual police officer or the
unframed novice The position
should be raised to expert and pro-
fessional standing" he declared.

Physicians Committee
Disaqrees With A. N. A.
Bs the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, Dec. g.
More Sreedom in experimenting with
medical care than voiced in prin-
ciples adopted by the American
Medical Association two months ago
was recommended yesterday by the
Committee of Physicians for the
improvement of Medical Care.
The committee, with around 1000
members, started little more than
a year. ago as the Committee of
400" group rebelling at some strict
traditions maintained by the Ameri-
can Medical Association. The lat
ter's house of delegates revised some
Of these and declared in favor of
State and Federal tax money to aid
in medical care of the impoverished.
The house recommended that hos
pital insurance should mot include
any type of medical care" The COM
mittee yesterday disagreed, favoring
extension Of voluntary hospital in
surance to include medical services.
-Four recommendations were made
by the committee. One, consolida-
ton of Government health services.
Two, better coordination of health
services. with encouragement OF ex-
perim1ets in co-operatives and non
profit group medical practice. Three,
standards of administration and
professional competence that will
permit experiments in medical care
without obstruction by punitive
measures Four, generous provisions
for education and investigation.
1t was declared that in expert
ments for medical care the con-
sumer as well as physician must be
represented.

Conditions al Time
OF Manufacture Fix
Wage-Hour Basis
Later Developments
Are Not Considered
By Administration
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The Wage Hour Administration,
amplifying Its Interpretation Of the
Fair Labor Standards Act, ruled
yesterday that circumstances at the
time goods are manufactured for
market-not some subsequent de-
velopment-determine whether an
employe is covered by the law.
Basically. the act applies to en-
ployes engaged in interstate COM
merce or in the production of goods
for interstate commerce, but COM
plex and borderline cases have
arisen to complicate its adrninistra-
ton.
Subsequent interstate movement
Of goods originally produced by an
employer. who had reason to be-
Geve they would be used only within
the State Of production, would not
bring the employees of the manu-
facturer under the Wage-Hour Act,
officials said.
Borderline Cases Explained.
The administration cited these
cases to show conditions under
which the act would or would not
apply to employees:
A manufacturer produces shirts
to fill the order of a local retail
dealer in the same State. The re-
taller goes bankrupt and his stock
Is sold to an out-of-State mer-
chant. The ultimate interstate ship
ment of the shirts does not subject
the employer to the act.
The same manufacturer fills an
order for an out-of State dealer.
The order is destroyed by fire be-
fore the shirts are shipped. The
manufacturer Is subject to the act
because, regardless OF the loss by
fire, his employees produced goods
for interstate commerce.
A producer makes buttons for an
Interstate shirt manufacturer and
another produces lumber for fur
niture manufacturing company. The
buttons and the lumber, in the eyes
of the administration, are 'ingre-
dents of shirts and of furniture
moving in interstate commerce.
Hence the wage-hour law applies to
the buttonmakers and the Sawmill
workers.
Cutters and Manufacturers.
An interstate garment manufac-
turer engages an independent con-
tractor in the same State to cut ma
terials. After cutting, the materials
go back to the manufacturer for
finishing The act applies to the
cutters employees.
Employees of a baker whose prod
ucts are sold locally, although he
obtains his flour from out of State,
are excluded from the act.
Employees of small mine which
sells all it's coal locally to an inter-
state manufacturing plant are ex-
cluded.
A local building contractors en-
ployes are not covered because they
do not produce goods sold or shipped
across a State line. but some of the
contractors employees hauling ma
terials in interstate transportation
may come under the act.

Bv PERTINAx.

PARIS. Dec. ; tN.AN.A).-There
is reason to believe that. on October
20, an exchange of views took place
about the Italian claims to Tunisia
between Premier Mussolixi and For
eign Minister Ciano of Italy and
Foreign Minister ron Ribbentrop OF
Germany, when the latter visited
Rome:
Won Ribbentrop's task then was
to persuade the italian government
to withdraw its support from the de-
mand of Hungary and Poland for
partition between them of Ruthenia,
the eastern province Of Czecho-
Slovakia. At first t>e 1taNan ruler
resisted the pressure that the Ger
man minister attempted to bring
to abear upon him. He explained
thai the Fsscist government, after
having sacrificed it's protectorate
over Austria to the pm -Germanist
cause could not be expected to give
up all its influence In Central Eu-
Npe and abaNton all It's associates
there.
MussoliG argued further that the
Budapest and warsaw governments
wo,iid certs!.dy become estranged
from Italy If they Gid noS succeed
in getting q common frontier, the
only possibility for them to sur
vive as really Independent states In
close proximity to the powerful Ger
man empire.
Won Ribbentrop Firm.
But Won Ribbentrop had been in.
structed not to give way on any &C.
count, since Germany, which now
holds Czecho- -Slovakia in her grasp,
needs Ruthenia as the basis Of q
political and military offensive to
be directed against Soviet Russia
and RumAnia. He was therefore
compelled to tell his hosts that both
dictatorships could not be expected
to live in harmony for any length
Of time If they were to compete with
each other for political and eco.
rlomic advantages In the middle Of
the continent, and he added that
the Rome government had better
look toward Tunisia for material
gains which might bear comparison
with those won by the Reich In the
Danube area since last March.
It Is even said that Won Ribben-
trop explained that the best method
the Fascist power could follow to
promote It's ambition in Northern
Africa was to insist that the italian
settlers In Tunisia should be grant,
ed the right Of self determination,
and that what Chancellor Hitler
had done last summer to free thu
3udeten Germans from CBecho-
Slovak shackles could be used az .
precedent.
Won Ribbentrop won his point,
and, on October 81, the award about
which he agreed In Vienna with
Count Ciano settled the whole Ru-
theniafr problem on terms which
conformed with the requirements Of
German diplomacy.
