While the labor division will not
sponsor parties and balls, it remains
true that unions may hold various
types of parties if they wish, but the
labor division will require, it was an
nounced, that there be no conflict with
the efforts of county chairmen set up
by the national committee.
'The labor division desires to make
it's own distinct effort this year, to be
presented to the President separately
and in the name of labor" said Presi-
dent Green. "A name for our offering
will be announced shortly. At present

New High Record Of Labor Effort Set
AS Goal In Annual Drive for Funds
To Fight Dreaded Infantile Paralysis

For one thing, the records show that
the death rate triples after the sun
goes down. Then there is also added
danger Of skidding in November and
December, when sleet, rain, snow, ice
and wet leaves on the pavement add to
the hazards Of motoring.
The advice of the safety council is
timely and should be needed by mo-
torists and pedestrians, too. With just
a little extra caution on the part of
all concerned, it should be possible to
keep that fifth man alive.

PERSECUTION OF
JEWS BARBAROUS.
SAYS WIN. GREEN

New York City (ILNS).-The Fed
eral Council of Churches of Christ is
gathering and sending broadcast a
compilation of the protests of promi-
nent men against the Nazi persecution
of the Jews
William Green, president of the A.
F. of L., said:
Il cannot express the deep sense of
horror | experienced over the treat
ment accorded Jewish people in Ger
many. 1t is shocking to ones sense of
justice. 1t seems inconceivable that
at this period of modern civilization,
the Jewish people should be subjected
to such inhuman treatment as press
reports indicate. In the name and in
behalf of the millions of members of
the American Federation of Labor, /
register my vigorous protest against
the barbarous and brutal treatment ac-
corded the Jewish people in Germany"
open Defiance of Cod
A few other statements are given in
part below:
"Such action as that which is now
taking place in Germany is an open
defiance of God and shame to hu-
manity" Bishop w. 7. Manning of
New York.
"The appalling persecution of the
Jews in Germany is an outrage to the
conscience of the civilized world. It is
a tragedy if nothing can be done to
prevent this cold-blooded, brutal pro-
gram Harry E. Fosdick of River
side Church, New York.
Nothing that Germany has ever
done has aroused such horror and op-
position as her present treatment of
Jews" Sinclair Lewis.
Union Scores Atrocities
in (Nazi) Germany the labor move
ment was first wiped out and its lead
ers sent to concentration camps, and
I now, IN progressive fury and lncreaS-
ing brutality, the German government
is found inficting these pogroms on
the Jewish race" John L. Lewis.
The C. l. o. in convention at Pitts
burgh adopted resolution indorsing
President Roosevelt for protesting
Nazi barbarity.
The international Ladies' Garment
Workers Union asked the President
to protest Jewish persecution in Ger
many "in terms so unmistakable that
even the perpetrators of these atroci-
ties will realize that they have placed
themselves by their barbarities beyond
the pale of civilization

Germ Theory Doubted.
Public Health Service researches
during the year throw doubt on a
rheumatic fever germ" such as has
been claimed by some investigators.
One such germ is common strain
OF streptococcus. In about one fourth
the cases studied, however, there was
no evidence of such q bacterium nor
OF a filterable virus. such as has been
claimed by other investigators.
An important finding was that
rheumatic fever generally subsidies
when a person develops diabetes, cou-
pied with the previous observation
that it is more common when the
thyroid gland is overfunctioning. This
opens up the possibility that the dis
ease may be due, at least in part, to
an unbalance Of internal secretions in
the body. The Investigators also were
able to produce in guinea pigs heart
valve lesion very similar to the sort
caused in humans by rheumatic fever
by treatment with endocrine products.

its dependencies during the year, DR..
Parran says. This was accomplished
by the examination of nearly million
persons arriving on ships and nearly
10000 coming into the country by air
plane. Airplane traffic with Latin
America has brought new menace Of
yellow fever. ...
Queer tuberculosis Study.
In tuberculosis field studies the
Federal Investigators found a queer
thing They selected two Southern
counties-Giles County, Tenn, and
Coffee County, Ala. The first of these
has an abnormally high death rate
from this disease, 120 per 100000 for
whites and 2O9 for colored The Sec
ond has an average rate, 13 for
whites and 81 for colored. Nurses
made house-to house survey of gen.
eral living conditions Of the families.
They found they were much better in
Giles County than in Coffee County.
The Tennesseeans had more money
and consumed much more red meat,
milk and eggs.
DR.. Parran reports two notable de-
velopments in the field OF infantile
paralysis, or poliomyelitis, Grip
pling ultravirus disease of which
President Roosevelt was victim.
Two years ago Public Health Service
doctors found that notable safe
guard against the infection was to
spray the nose with picric acid. The
virus Is believed to enter the body by
way of the nerve of smell. This year
in the face OF threatened epidemic
in Alabama, Tennessee and Missis-
sippi, the treatment was given to more
than 100000 persons, especially chill
dren. 1t is believed to have done
considerable good, however made
quately administered in some cases.
Rheumatic Heart Disease.
The other development comes from
the study of a minor epidemic which
broke out in 1884 among doctors and
nurses in a Los Angeles hospital
where there were poliomyelitis cases.
1t presents strong evidence, the sur
geon general reports. that the virus
may be spread directly from person to
person and by means OF carriers,
without any intermediate agency such
as an insect.
A major project of the Public
Health Service has been the study OF
rheumatic heart disease Heart dis
ease in general is becoming the major
cause OF death in the United States
and the type which follows rheumatic
fever accounts for a considerable per-
centage, about which. DR.. Parran be-
believes, something may be done Most
OF the clinical studies are being made
IN Washington hospitals
This year, for no known reason,
there was remarkable reduction in
this disease here. seriously retarding
the studies. Inquiry revealed that
there had been a similar decrease in
most eastern cities. This, says DR..
Parran. leads to renewed speculation
as to the possible influence of general
