the annual convention of the medi-
cal and surgical section of the AS
sociation of American Railroads in
New York City tomorrow and Tues
day by DR.. Glenn l. Jones, chief
surgeon of the Southern Railway
System.

ktions. 1t prepares recommended
physical standards for railroad en-
ployes, particularly for those con-
cerned with the operation of trains
and provides for periodic physical
examinations to increase efficiency

certed efforts to combat venereal
diseases in cooperation with the
public health authorities.

Joan was vastly interested. She
questioned Bromley. She learned
a lot about John North, about how
he had been a transport pilot before
inheriung the fortune with which
he had created North Aircraft. She
gathered that Jim Bromley con-
sidered John North pretty grand
person.
They stopped for gas at road
side combination service station
and restaurant They went inside
for lunch. Joan was silent while
they ate, and Jim Bromley said
after time, Something on your
mind?"
| She put down her fork, placed her
elbows on the table and cupped
her chin in her hands. She said
Jim, prepare yourself for a shock

What's the gag. Joan?'

DO tell"
I'm scared to death this some
body will find me- If he finds me
he'll make me do something I don t
want to do. II can't stand up to
him.
And now" Jim said. his voice

Which is pretty good. considering
his many and varied civic and busi-

Washington's torrid summer days.
Interested in Schools.
Mr.. Keneipp has one other hobby
publ cschools and their problems.
He was educated in the local schools
himself, but he probably has spent
more time and energy on school
problems than he ever needed to
learn the three RS. He has been
chairman of the Public Schools
Committee of the Board of Trade
several years.
When he first returned to Wash
ington in 1927, after a 10-year stay
in California, Mr.. Keneipp became
manager of the District division of
the American Automobile Associa-
ton. There he remained until 1890
when he became general manager
of Call Carl, Inc. Four years later
he returned to motor club work as
Washington manager of the Key
stone Automobile Club. He is now
the clubs Southern division man
ager, having both the Washington
and Baltimore Offices under his su-
pervision.
For many years he has been a

He said that the Streets and Ave-
nues and Bridges Committees of the
trade body, which recently were
combined to make the Highway
Committee, had never paid much
attention to trees. Mr.. Shinn has
been chairman of the two former
committees for seven years each and
had served on both for years in ad-
dition.
Il believe that the street trees of
Washington, even more than it's
parks, represent one of the most
important attractions of the Capt.
tai City," DR.. Shinn said.
"We have one of the most BEAU
tiful cities in the world" he added.
1T would not be nearly SO beauti-
full if it were not for the trees.
Other American cities bring to view
long, hot, bare streets with few trees

one Of the first things visitors notice
when they come here"
Mr.. Shinn said he intends to in
struct his special subcommittee,
when it is appointed, to get in touch
with all authorities responsible for
the trees and to ask the advice in
making their study of qualified pri-
vate citizens in the city as we'll and
officials of the Federal Government
and professional tree experts.
Il hope to be able to get, in this
way, a fair picture of the condition
in which Washington's trees are and
what it would be possible to do
about their condition if it is found
to be poor" he said
Mr.. Shinn said also that the spe-
cial subcommittee would probably
seek the cooperation of other civic
groups who might be interested in
handing down Washington's crown
of leafy branches to posterity."
