Rosen. Somewhere in the Finnish
Russian peace picture also Though
the state department denies it) may
be Sumner Welles.
Wenner Gren, who controls the
Bofors munitions company and is
the richest man in Sweden, was on
his yacht, the Southern Cross, in
the harbor of Nassau a few weeks
ago when he received coded mes
sage from Goering. The cable
asked him to take the same ship as
Welles took on his peace mission.
Wenner Gren flew to New York,
boarded the Rex, and when he got
to Rome, saw Mussolini- before
Welles did.
Then he proceeded through Swift
erland with Welles to Berlin, where
he still is, and where he has been
throwing his weight behind an early
peace.
Business Against War.
Goering's and Wenner Gren's in
terest in Finnish peace is easy to
understand. From the viewpoint of
the German army it would be just
as disastrous to have Russia sweep
through Finland and perhaps on to
Sweden, as to have the Allies or
ganize an expeditionary force to
stop Russia.
In either case, Sweden's rich iron
deposits would fall into the hands of
foreign power.
What the German army wants is
a relatively tranquil Russia, from
which Germany can draw raw ma
terials. Also, the longer Russia is
forced to continue fighting, the more
vulnerable she becomes in the
south, where are located the rich
Batum oil fields, now invaluable to
Germany.
Similarly, an allied expeditionary
force sent through Sweden, perhaps
turning that country into a battle
field, would ruin the Wenner Gren
interests. He is chairman of the
Swedish Cellulose company, took
over a large part of the Kreuger
interests, and heads the Electrolux
company, Swedish parent of the
American subsidiaries which make
vacuum cleaners and refrigerators.
Note-The peace activity of Axel
Wenner Gren illustrates the attitude
of big business in both Wall Street
and London's City. Unlike the case
in the last war, American bankers
are ardent rooters for peace. This
time not they but Uncle Sam,
through Jesse Jones, is lending the
money. Not only is there no dough
in war, but if Nazi-Communism
wins, the capitalistic system stands
in danger.
More on Gren.
Axel Wenner Gren, although a
friend of Goering's, is quite pro-
American. His dark-eyed, fascinat-
ing wife comes from Kansas City.
The Wenner Gren yacht, Southern
Cross, rescued 376 of the Athena
survivors last September Also
it was the home of Greta Carlo
during her recent stay in Florida
and Bahamian waters. On it Greta
ate copiously instead of dieting.
Her dietician was trying to get her
to put more weight around her
shoulders.
Greta's wardrobe aboard the
Southern Cross was so meager that
she wore Stacks most of the time,
hardly had an evening dress.
Friends attributed this to the fact
that she never goes shopping-that
means being stared at.

FEMALE DEADLIER THAN MALE, FBI
 RECORDS PROVE
But Women Criminals Are Comparatively Rare,
 Bureaus Finds

Women criminals are fewer in number than their male counter parts but approximately they con- tinue to commit more serious in- fractions of the law, according to figures released by the Federal Bureau of Investigation today. Only 32 percent of the arrest records examined by the FBI during the first six months of 1940 represent ed women, and for all types of crime except commercialized vice the number of men arrested was larger than the number of women.
 Of each 1000 men and 1000 Wom- en arrested, it was found that there were 13 women as compared with 10 men arrested for murder. Fifty five women Of each group were charged with assault while only B men were charged with this type of crime. For violations of nar- cotic drug laws, prostitution and commercializeG vice and other sex offenses, women also predominated.
 For types of crime against prop erty such as robbery, burglary, lar- ceny, and auto theft, men predom- mated. The comparison further re- veals that If of each 1000 women arrested and fingerprinted were charged with driving while intoxi- cated, while AS of each 1000 men were charged with such violation.
 The figures for the first six months of 1940 represented an in crease in the percentage of crimes committed by women from n per- cent during the corresponding per- iod in 1899 to 8.2 percent.

Three More Hangers
Sought for Growing
GraveI|y Point Needs
) Additional Lines
Make Application to
Fly Into New Port

Off1cials in charge of building the
National Airport at Gravelly Point
were conferring today on ways to
obtain additional money for con-
struction of three more hangers.
This has resulted from increased
demands by commercial airlines for
additional schedules.
The three airlines serving WASH
ington now want additional space,
and at least three other national
lines have made informal appnca-
tions to fly into the new port. !.
Col. Sumpter Smith, head of the
airport commission. said he is in
vestigating possibilities of getting
more funds. At present Public
Works Administration funds have
been provided for only one hangar.
Col. Smith saw an ultimate need for
at least eight They cost about
$500,000 each.
Trips Increasing.
AS an indication of the increasing
need for facilities, Herbert D. Ford,
district sales manager for American
Airlines. said today that during the
last year plane service here for his
line has increased from 8 trips to 20
flights day, and the number would
increase to Is trips by June Is.
If P. w. A. funds cannot be OBJ
tanned the Civil Aeronautics Author
ity is expected to ask for deficiency
appropriation to provide additional
hangar space.
At present American Airlines,
Pennsylvania Central and Eastern
serve Washington. Informal re-
quests, it is understood, have come
to the c. A. A. from United, North
west and Braniff Airlines for hangar
space.
Jurisdiction Question.
Another problem facing the air.
port commission is whether the field
is IN the boundaries of the District
or Virginia. Restaurateurs who wish
to operate at the airport want a
decision. Immediately involved is
the sale of hard liquors. Under
the Virginia law liquor could not
be sold by the drink at the airport;
under District.law it could.
Airport engineers believe the ter
minal building falls within the Dis
trict boundary. Howevere a legal
ruling is expected some time before
the airport goes into operation.

Hears War Talk
At Capitol, However

Benjamin Appel, who crossed and

months to find out what people are

war, personal problems are still the
chief topic of conversation.
His journey ended in January and
he wrote a book, The People Talk"
but he said today that though war
talk may be more general, the aver
age mans life is not centering
around the headlines.
The people in authority" he said,

their domestic problems, their girl
friend, baseball. That's an exag-

Huff Will Become
Warden Of Prison

Welfare officials have begun a
search for new general superin-
tendent of penal institutions for the
District to fill the vacancy to be Gre
ated soon by the resignation of Ray
L. Huff, who has accepted appoint
ment as warden of the Federal
prison at Mcneil Island, in Puget
Sound, Washington.
Acceptance of the Federal post
was announced yesterday by James
v. Bennett, director of the Federal
Prisons Bureau, confirming reports
which had been widespread for some
weeks that Mr.. Huff was expected
to be given the Mcneil Island post.
Mr.. Huff had not yet sub
mitted his resignation to the
Board of Public Welfare last
night, but he is expected to leave
the penal position here about July /.
He formerly served as parole super
visor for the Federal Prisons Bureau
before entering District service in
1887.
District officials were pleased with
Mr.. Huff's service here and some
tried to persuade him to stay, but
personal considerations led him to
accept the Federal post, it was said.
In his new post Mr.. Huff is to sue
ceed Edwin B. Swope, who has been
named warden of the new Federal
medium security institution at
Terre Haute, Ind.
While welfare board members az
yet had given no formal study to
selection of a successor to Mr.. HUFF,
it was said the names of Capt.
Thomas M. Rives, superintendent Of
the District Jail, and E. A. Green,
business manager for the District
reformatory and workhouse, would
be among those suggested.

Psychoneurotic Cases

Percentage Increased by
Compensation Awards,
DR.. Schneider Says

A horribly high percentage" of
! Observation-Disclosures complain
ing of injuries, real or imaginary
has been aggravated by the decisions
of judges, compensation commits
sioners and Government agencies
which have awarded compensation
to the patient, Dr. Antoine Schnei-
der, professor of neurology at
Georgetown Medical School, said to-
day.
Speaking before the fifth annual
alumni extension course, DR.. Schnei-
der said it was perfectly ridicu-
lous" on the one hand to pay a
patient for functional disturbance
and at the same time try to con-
vince him there was no good cause
for his complaints.
DR.. Schneider said subjective COM
plants should never be made the
basis for compensation without
thorough investigation.
English Decision Cited.
He described present trneds in
the medical-legal aspect of func-
tional disturbances "as very dis
turbing' and cited an example of
an English court decision in which
a woman witness to an accident was
awarded damages from the two
truck companies involved In the
collision on her claim that watch
ing the accident shattered her
nerves.
IF this decision establishes a
precedent and for all I know it may
well, he said, "one can readily pre-
dict that front-row seats at prob
able locations for accidents will be
at premium"
DR.. Schneider also touched on
malingering-the taking of injuries
or results therefrom. He said in
surance companies today have per-
fected methods worthy of Scotland
Yard in dealing with this.
Hand Injuries Discussed.
Diagnosis and treatment of in
juries of the hand were described
by DR.. Philip A. Caulield. DR.. Will
liam j. Cusack and DR.. Fred o. Coe
discussed pregnancies. DR.. William
F. ODonnell spoke on skin eruptions
of the new born and DR.. F. j.
Eichenlaub discussed common skin
diseases and their office treatment.
The morning session was followed
by a luncheon, and during the aft
ernoon the alumni were scheduled
to hear DR.. William B. Porter, pro-
fessor of medicine at the Medical
College of Virginia, and DR.. Lloyd
G. Lewis of Johns Hopkins Univer-
sity. The program will resume at
am. tomorrow and end about
noon. Drs. Leon A. Martel and
Ralph M. LeComte were co-chair-
men of the course.

of the work being done in the medi-
cal school was placed on display
in the school library. All of today's
sessions were held at the medical
school.
