Restricting tne proposed scope OF
the grand jury investigation into al
legged antitrust activities of the
American Medical Association
against Group Health Association,
Inc, Justice James M. Proctor, in
District Court, today quashed two
thirds of a subpoena which had
ordered the A. M. A. to produce a
wide variety of its records In the
case.
Department of Justice counsel i'm
mediately began a careful study to
determine what effect the court
action would have on the probe. The
grand jury proceeded, however. with
its investigation. as the department
staff presented this morning another
in its long list of witnesses Dr.
Thomas E. Mattingly of this city.
Justice Proctor. in ordering the
first two paragraphs of the subpoena
quashed, struck out that part which
ordered the A. M. A. to submit GER
tain records dealing with 10 diff
ferent group medicine organizations
scattered throughout the country
In some cases the Government had
asked for records going back as far
as 1916.
Third Paragraph Stands.
Justice Proctor, however, let stand
the third paragraph. which would
require the presentation of many
documents in the case from January
/, 1882, to October IS, 1888. The
Government is attempting to prove
that both the A. M. A. and the
Medical Society of the District
violated the Sherman Antitrust
Act through acts which constituted
restraint of trade against Group
Health Association, Inc.
The A. M. A. had come into court
asking that the subpoena be quashed
because it was too broad in scope
and exceeded the authority of the
grand jury in its probe.
In his decision, which was a
memorandum opinion, the jurist
said he realized that part of the
subpoena may, by its terms, cover
privileged communications, but he
omitted dealing with the question
now "in view of counsels assurance
that they apprehend no trouble in
amicably settling any questions OF
that kind that may arise"
If they should disagree as to
any paper" he said, they may feel
at liberty to bring the matter to me
| at any time"
Pr0ctOr's Statement.
In the opinion Justice Proctor
also said:
THE assertions made IN the mo-
ton and in arguments that COM
pliance with the subpoena will re-
uuire an examination for the stated
period of every paper in all the files
of the association scattered through
its separate departments. occupy

BERLIN, Nov. 17-Prominent
Jews suggested today that the United
States mortgage the German i'm
migration quota for the next three
years and accept 81 900 Jews immedi-
ately.
Frantically trying to arrange ref
uge from the Nazi laws against
them, they pleaded that America,
England and France and Germany
permit the German Jewish popula-
ton to emigrate without passports
and visas because of the acute
need"
The Jews kept away from popula-
ton centers today. afraid that the
funeral at Dusseldorf of Ernst vom
Rath might lead to more violence,
like that of week ago after the
Paris Embassy secretary died Of
wounds from a Jewish boys revolv-
er fire.
$4,000 Reported Arrested.
Jewish estimates today were that
$4,000 of their number had been ar
rested, an increase from the 10000
figure they gave yesterday.
They said they had reports from
concentration camps that new Jew
ish prisoners were quickly put in
uniform and had their heads shaved
after the usual custom, indicating
they would not be released soon.
The first reaction to President
Roosevelt's press conference state
ment of plans for an air force that
could defend both North and South
America came in an editorial pub
lished by Voelkischer Beobachter,
Chancellor Hitler's newspaper.
It said the President pictured an
'imaginary menace" to America and
that suspicious were cast on other
powers in the interest Of United
States armaments.'
No Reaction to Roosevelt.
There still was no indications of
what feeling may have been aroused
by the Presidents statement against
The Boersen Zeitung am Mittag,
under the caption The Garrulous
President" said editorially that as
the n-American conference date
drew near "the more talkative Presi-
dent Roosevelt becomes for he ex-

ference"

about good neighborhood, but in
reality means $4,000 100000 of in
vested North American capital, and

ACTION DUE SOON
ON SPAS PLAN

Early action on Senator Joseph
C. OMahoney's bill for a survey
Of the nations mineral springs
by the Public Health Service was
forecast today when it was learned
that members of the Senate Pub
lie Lands Committee were only
waiting for reports from the Pub
lie Health Service and other in!
terested Federal agencies before
considering the measure.
A report from the Public Health
Service itself was promised within
a day or two"
In the meantime q canvass of
sentiment in the committee tt
which the bill was referred showed
a majority of Senators to be
actively interested in the proposal
and likewise in the suggestion
that the Federal Government aid
the establishment of spas in the
United States similar to those in
Europe, preferably on the public
domain.
Several Senators on the Public
Lands Committee pointed out that
they have hot and cold springs in
their own States which could be
utilized for such a purpose.
Senator O'Mahoney expressed
the hope of having the measure
reported favorably to the Senate
and acted on before adjournment.

I am in the peculiar position OF
saying:
Q.-What was the purpose Of
your trip, Miss Pickford2
A.-Well, Miss Pickford, it
was q business trip-with only
"a hours notice to sail.
My nose for news tells me people
will be interested in reading about
the Duke of Windsor and his
charming duchess, whom I met at
dinner at Lady Elsie Mendls in
Paris and saw again the following
night when they came to see two
American films I had brought.
The duchess is more interesting,
for instance, than the board Of
directors of United Artists, who
kept me closeted in London for
seven solid sunny days, including
my birthday. We were deciding
to attract the best producers by
letting them share in our profits
whether they own stock or not.
SOME REAL NEWS
Now this is what call news.
The duchess has a lovely new
bobbed hair couture, parted in the
center, ear-revealing and swirling
chic and sleek into a V-Shaped roll
at the nape of her neck.
She was exquisite in a white
crepe dinner gown, high-necked
and buttoned down the back to
the waist, with girdle of gold
embroidered laurel leaves and a
skirt falling slim and straight to
the floor.
It Is a pity Americans won't see
it, because they do not plan to
come to the United States this
fall.
IT have seen so many Of your
pictures I would know you any

her photos. She admired the rip

had met the duke before but
I had never seen him look so
healthy. Everything was informal.
He was learning from an Indian
princess the correct way to pro-
nollnce Kapurthala. It seems the
accent was on the second syllable,
and the duke was having some
difficulty.
He reminded me Of a little boy
especially the following night
when he saw the Goldwyn Follies
and Marco Polo. He howled at
the antics of the Ritz brothers. I
did not think he would under
stand American slang, but he did,
and liked it.

But the Duchess heard and in

do. I will see that you get it."
That Sunday night the Duchess
wore under q blue fox jacket a
black gown with fine braid en-

cream or butter. At proper temper
atures and humidities they retain,
their inherent goodness for a long

sloppy and while they may still be

4-Point Program Aids
In Keeping Eggs Fresh

The problem of keeping eggs cool
is one which always confronts poul-
trymen with the advent of sum-
mer. A four-point program on the
care of eggs is suggested by DR.. L.
A. Wilhelm of the poultry depart
ment, Washington State College.
Whether in warm weather OF
cold weather, eggs should be kept
clean, cool, humid, and should be
marketed frequently, says DR.. Will
helm. Each of these points is equal
ly important, not only to the poul-
tryman but to the egg buyer and
the retailer as we'll
Eggs are readily affected by high
temperatures. Experiments COM
pleted this past year at the State
College reveal some startling facts.
Measuring the quality of the eggs
after they were subjected to various
treatments by breaking them out
revealed that holding eggs two
hours at 80 degrees, ten hours at
10 degrees, two days at so degrees
and five days at 80 degrees result
in an equal amount of breakdown.
In other words, if the farmer al
lows the eggs to remain in the nests
as little as two hours on a very
+, hot day OF hauls his eggs to mar
ket exposed to the direct rays OF
the sun, the resulting breakdown Is
the same as though he had held
the eggs in cool cellar at so de-
grees for two days.
The same thing applies to the
buyer of eggs. II he receives the
eggs and allows them to set on the
receiving room floor two hours m
the heat of the day, or over night.
the egg suffers the same loss that
would require five days in a gooo
storage room. This also brings up
the point that trucks picking W.
eggs. whether from the producer
direct, or from central stations,
should be equipped with facilities
for cooling and hu1nidifying tne
