Commissioner j. Russell Young,

their efficiency in carrying out the
program.
Other speakers included Brig. Gen.
L. B. Hershey, executive officer of
national selective service, who ex-
pressed his appreciation to the Sc
lectees as they go out to make it
possible for my family and yours
to be better defended; DR.. Joseph
c. Havenner, member of the Board
of Appeals for the District, and A.
z. Foster Wood, president of the
Junior Board of Commerce.
Each of the selectees was intro
duced to the gathering by Capt.
Gordon Hittenmark, public relations
officer for the local selective service
organization, who also was master
of ceremonies for the program, a
part of which was broadcast through
the facilities of Station WMAL.

After the men had left the station
for their X-rays, last minute prep

at the induction station.
Certain alterations were necessary
when supervising officers found the

current. Additional electric heaters
had to be procured. Oficers said
most Of the technical equipment
however, would operate on this type
of current.
At least one local draft board
chairman, James A. Gallagher, of
Board No. Is, accompanied his

14,037 Born in D. {.
Last Year for Highest
Rate Since 1929
Deoths TotuIed 1922;
Births Were ZIG Per
1000 Population

More babies were born in the Dis
trict per 1000 estimated population
last year than any year since 1929,
the Census Bureau announced 10
day.
There were 14,037 births in 1899
zig births per 1000 population. The
number of deaths was 8,292-which
means there were 1859 births for each
100 deaths.
Forty-flve of the babies were born
last year to mothers who came with
in the age bracket of 10 to IA years.
This was a decrease of three in this
bracket from the preceding year.
Officials pointed out that it may
have been that none of the mothers
was 10, or IL, or IL, or even Is
years of age-but that this is just
the lowest age bracket used by
statisticians in grouping the ages of
the mothers
Mothers in the age group of 20 to
"a years led with 4,098 births. Two
sets of triplets and 1872 sets of twins
were born here in 1899. A total Of
1898 babies were born in July, more
than in any other month.
The 1899 infant mortality rate of
ATT deaths per 1000 live births was
the lowest recorded in the District
in the last IL years. The maternal
death rate dropped from Sc per
1000 live births in 1888 to So in 1889
The 1899 death rate of 1913 per
1000 estimated population was
slightly above the 1876 figure report
ed for 1888. January was the most
fatal month, with TIA deaths re-
ported.
Diseases of the heart and cancer
and nephritis were the three leading
killers" in the District last year,
accounting for 1886 deaths. Heart
diseases were among the five lead
ing causes of death in every age
group over five years. Deaths from
cancer and nephritis, however, were
more heavily concentrated in the
older age groups.
New lows were recorded last year
in the death rates for pneumonia
and tuberculosis. The pneumonia
rate in 1899 was Ills per 100000
estimated population, as compared
with 81.8 in 1898 and 1895 in 1887.
The 1889 tuberculosis rate was 64.5
deaths per 100000 population, COM
pared with 70.4 in 1888 and 89.5 in

Dies Refuses Comment
On Roosevelt TeIeqrom

ORANGE, Tex. Nov. q Or
Representative Dies, Democrat, of
Texas said today he would not
make any statement in connection
with President Roosevelt's telegram
to him yesterday until he has con-
ferred with the President.
Mr.. Dies, accompanied by his wife
and children, left for Washington.
He drove to Lake Charles, La, from
where he planned to proceed by
train.
He and President Roosevelt will
confer Friday, following their ex-
change of kilograms concerning &C
tivities of the House committee
investigating un-Americanism, of
which Mr.. Dies is chairman.

might with little more patience
be obtained in a manner to be
admissible in court, or by the giving
of immunities to witnesses before
Congressional committees as to
matters revealed by their own testi-
mony. Such action may defeat the
ends of justice.
IF you agree, as am sure you
do, that this is proper division of
functions, any difficulties as to
detail in applying these general
principles can be worked out in con-
ference between the executive de-
partment or departments affected
and your committee.
THE Attorney General will be
glad to arrange for the holding of
such conference at your con-
venience."
At his press conference yester-
day the President indicated that no
new statutory powers are believed
needed to accomplish the protection
of defense industries against sabo-
tage or strikes.
He added, however, that the pos
sibility of legislation is being kept
in mind and studied anew as each
threat to continuous operation of
vital industries arises.
President Roosevelt talked yester-
day with Secretaries Knox and
Stimson, Attorney General Jackson
and Sidney Hillman, labor member
of the Defense Commission, before
indicating that no new legislation
would be sought Immediately.
Through Chairman Summers the
House Judiciary Committee yester-
day formally requested Attorney
General jackson and other execu-
tives of the Federal Government to
indicate if any additional legisla-
ton is needed to make certain that
the preparedness program be not
1nterfered with, particularly in the
plants engaged in the production
of war materials.
Meanwhile the Dies Committee
prepared to release for publ
cation in Sundays newspapers a
so-called "red paper" detailing in
nearly 1000 pages the alleged plans
of Communists in this country to
sabotage" national defense should
the United States become involved
in the European war.
Dies Charge.
Shortly before the Dies commit
tee announced it would make the
so-called "red paper" public Mr.. Dies
released through his Office a state
ment in which he warned that the
"ununiformed soldiers" of Hitler,
Mussolini and Stain holding key
positions must be removed from
Americas defense industries to pre-
vent Sitting" Of the country's ma
tional defense program.
"We would not for a moment

the totalitarian powers working in
our national defense industries"
said the statement. Neither should
we permit their ununiformed SOL
diers who are far more dangerous
to hold such jobs where they are in
position to serve their foreign
masters with little or no risk Of
detection and conviction"
Sees Definite Threat.
Further, Mr.. Dies said:
Our committee has repeatedly
warned the country that the pres
ence of these ununiformed troops
of the totalitarian powers in our
national defense industries con-
stitutes a serious threat to our
whole preparedness program. We
have furnished <the country and
Government agencies with the
names and records of many of these
people. We have many times warned
that their immediate objective is to
slow up and. if possible, prevent
adequate preparedness. To permit
these people to continue in positions
of leadership in certain unions or
in key positions in national de-
Tense industries upon the assump-
ton that they can be watched and
deferred from the consummation of
their program is to follow the in
adequate counter-espionage meth
DDS which proved complete fall
ure in all of the countries overrun
by Stain and Hitler"

sued by the Dies Committee, &C
cording to a summary prepared by
Robert E. Stripping, secretary, con-
tains about $4,000 words. This

its ends are to be sought.

His hardness was not the only ir-
regularity for Cauthers. He later
revealed he did not have a required
letter signed by his wife, so he was
sent to local selective service head
quarters to have the matter adjusted
satisfactorily before proceeding with
his induction. In case selectee is
married he must present a letter
from his wife showing she is not
dependent on him for support dur.
ing the period of service.
Most of the selectees carried small
handbags containing clothing anc
sentimental knicknacks. Some came
empty handed, obviously ready fol

One selectee brought portable
radio. He kept it tuned low in the
station.

his examination and enlisted.
About II years ago, Forrest was
