As Library Trustee

The Commissioners today accepted
with regret the resignation of Felix
Morley, former editor of the Wash
ington Post and now president Of
Haverford College, as a member Of
the Board of Trustees of the Public
Library.
The letter of resignation, dated
Tuesday. said:
In view of my departure from
Washington. to assume the presi-
dency of Haverford College. it be-
comes inevitable that I should pre-
sent to you my resignation as a
member of the District of Columbia
Board of Library Trustees, which
do herewith.
Il am naturally reluctant to leave
position which I always regarded
as an honor and privilege. But
obviously 1 am no longer in a posi-
ton to fulfill the duties of the post
and should, therefore, make way for
a resident of Washington. I would
have presented my resignation earl
ier but DR.. George F. Bowerman
suggested that delay 1t until Miss

librarian.
Please be assured of my appreci-
alton of this honor, bestowed at your
hands some years ago, and of my
continuing interest in the Washing
ton Public Library, regardless of
my removal from the scene of its
very important activities"

park officials to control floodwaters
in the run itself.
Land Often Flooded.
In time of heavy rains many res
idential properties situated below
the high-water mark have been
damaged by flood, and citizens for
years have urged strenuouoly that
something be done to control the
waters of the stream.
The Maryland National Capital
Park and Planning Commission, &C

chase of land to extend the parkway

Chest Benefuctioh Lies Behind
Boy Engineers linking Bell
Instructive Visiting Nurses Ministrotons
And Hospital Fund Restored Health

The machine shop. an old, one
family enterprise. seemed destined
to go on its placid course for many
more years. but the founders son
had died, and the third generation
was interested only in disposing OF
the assets for cash. Machinists
jobs being few in the Capital. the
lleager family savings soon were
dissipated.
Helped by Woman in Blue.
As she picked a towel off the rack
the mother thought of the trying
months that followed and of the
invaluable aid she received from
the understanding, capable woman
dressed in blue who brought her
black satchel to the small red brick
house regularly. ministering to
Billy's minor ills and offering home
hygiene hints which helped prevent
their recurrence.
She owed much to the Instructive
Visiting Nurse Society, the woman
at the sink reflected. She tried
unsuccessfully to skip the day the
blue-clad caller found her clutching
little Billy to her. The precious
mite had been crying for an hour
without pause. Its face had become
almost purple.
The mother recalled how the
nurse reassured her in some meas
ure. but admitted Billy was very
Ill, needed hospital treatment. With
Jim away from home looking for
work, what to DO? The nurse said
arrangements would be made at
once Jim and his wife would not
have to worry about bills they knew
they would have no hope of paying.
Billy became one of the recipients
of medical care paid for by the
Community Chest disqualification
Fund.
Climbs Again to Health.
Weeks passed, and Billy came
home, pale but contented. More
weeks went by, and the tyke was
restored to complete healthfulness
The mother knew the most valuable
thing in her life had been saved for
her. She did not know that Billy,
many other youngsters, many adults,
had been assured proper hospital
treatment through the generosity of
Community Chest givers which had
made possible establishment of a
fund running into hundreds of thou
sands of dollars from which pay
ments were made to the city's hos
pitfalls in behalf of patients certified
by the Health Security Administra-
ton who could not afford to pay
any part, or, at most, small part,
of the concession rate of 81 per day
or so cents per clinic visit.
Billy's mother did not understand
completely that the Community
Chest was doing its part in safe
guarding the public health and,
resultantly, the happiness of homes,
in such an impressive measure, a
measure which was expanded this
year to include an allotment of
SAT ,94060 for the Instructive Visit
ing Nurse Society and a $3.50 ,529 81
disqualification fund.
She knew the little bells tinkle
had not been stilled, however, so she
smiled and was thankful.
AS for the young engineer, his
thoughts were only on getting "all
the people"

might be to have the transfer of
title of a secondhand car consti-
tute a notice to the new owner to
take the machine to the inspection
station for a checkup. He said
that apparently in many cases now,
secondhand cars are sold without
any official check being made on
their mechanical condition.
1t. William Liverman of the Ac-
cident Prevention Unit said follow
ing the inquest that to his knowledge
there were at least a alf-dozen
mechanically defective automobiles
which had been involved in recent
collisions resulting only in prop
erty damage.
1t was said that when the District
inaugurated the inspection system,
dealers in secondhand cars were re-
quired to have the cars passed by
the inspectors. In recent months,
however, it was learned, the dealers
have been permitted to let the cars
go to new owners after merely a
checkup at their own shops.
Tries to Avoid Collision.
Mr.. Goodloe testified yesterday
that he jammed on his brakes when
he saw Mr.. Duvall standing near the
middle of Wisconsin avenue. He
said he tried to turn aside, but that
his tires were in the street car tracks
and he was unable to do so, and slid
into the pedestrian, striking him
with the left front of the car.
Horace Williams, assistant super
visor in the District traffic inspec-
ton, said that subsequent tests made
on the car established that the
brakes were out of alignment, the
front axle was bent, the left head
light was out of alignment and the
right headlight lacked a lens and
was covered by a cloth. Fe said the
car showed evidences of having been
involved in a prior collision which
apparently had occurred some
months before.
The driver said he had a minor
collision with another automobile in
Maryland some time before and that
the car had not been repaired. The
car bore an inspection sticker, but
the assistant supervisor of inspec-
tions said that the date the sticker
was issued could not be obtained i'm.
mediately from their records

Roosevelt Tells.
Needs
For Defense
A. A. A. Can Supply
Great Assistance,
Statement Says

In a statement to the opening
session of the 38th annual meeting
of the American Automobile Asso-
citation at the Mayflower Hotel to-
day, President Roosevelt said there
is immediate need for some i'm
provements on our major system OF
roads and concentration on con-
meeting these with centers of mobil-
Zation and defense production"
Declaring the A. A A. can be of
great assistance" in co-ordlnating
normal and military use of roads,
the Chief Executive continued:
Transportation is, of course,
vitally essential to national defense
We are fortunate that defense needs
can be met without anv serious
interference with civilian traffic"
Thurman w. Arnold, Assistant
Attorney General. said this country
must trade on large scale with
South America to assure permanent
ties.
Battleships will not make per-
manent friends of South America"
Mr. Arnold said. IF South America
makes money in trade with Ger
many, they will trade with that
country and not he hampered by
any obligations to this country for
sentimental reasons. Trade is the
real fifth column there for us to
worry about
Removal of BOttlenecks Urged.
MI Arnold also said the conSum-
ers in America must wake up TO
the problem of what he called the
breaking down of artificial barriers
through the distribution of goods
between States
"BottleneCks which are created by
little strategic groups and which re-
suit in levying a toll on the low
income group of consumers must be
removed if the Nation is to go full
force in its defense program" he
added
Shortly after the morning session
was called to order, Bert Wander
Uarf, head of the Travel Bureau of
the Automobile Club of Michigan,
collapsed in the meeting room.
Would Curb Justices of Peace.
The Board Of Directors of the A. A.
A. following a meeting yesterday,
made public committee report de-
manding that traffic cases be re-
moved from justices of the peace.
The report admitted that it would
be virtually impossible to abolish
the office of justice of the peace alto
gether, but said the State Legis-
latures could make a greater effort
to limit their powers of Jurisdiction.
Nearby Systems Cited.
Maryland and Virginia, it was
pointed out, have supplanted JUS
tices Of the peace with minor court
systems manned by salaried magis-
trateS.
William G. Bryant of Detroit,
chairman of the A. A. AS National
Touring Board and Advisory Com
mittee, told the delegates that travel
has become the third ranking in
dustry of the United States, exceed
ed only by agriculture and textiles.
Protective strips 1000 feet wide
on each side of highways was also
urged at today's session as health,
safety, decent appearance and gen.
eral public welfare" measure.
