BUCHAREST, Rumania, Oct. 18.-
Radu Ginvara, Rumanian Minister
to Greece, has been recalled, it was
announced without immediate ex-
PLANTATION today, as the Council OF
Ministers adopted a series of DEGREES
designed to turn Rumania's economy
into channels supplementing, rather
than competing with, German in
dustry.
The withdrawal of Ginvara from
Greece, against whom the axis is
reported to have exerted pressure to
discard her British guarantee,
aroused great interest in diplomatic
quarters.
Under one set Of DEGREES Rumania S
entire industrial system will be re-
organized; all industries defined as
parasitic" will be closed i'm
mediately.
The only industries to be en-
couraged will be those making war
supplies or using Rumanian raw
materials. All factories which have
been abandoned or closed in recent
years will be appropriated by the
state and turned over to war ma
terial production.

Is Following Policy
OF 'Abso|utism'
Answers Critics in Speech
Read at Accounting
Institute Meeting
BY the Associated Press.

oy tllc hSoOSldbcu TlCoS.
MEMPHIS, Tenn, Oct. 18-Chair-
man Jerome N Frank, answering
critics of the Securities and Elk
change Commission, asserted today
that the S. E. c. was not seeking to
impose rigid uniformity in the field
of accounting and that no "abso-
lutte" accuracy was contemplated by
its regulations. He said such aims
would be "nonsensical."
Mr.. Frank prepared the address
for delivery before the American
Institute of Accountants, closing its
SD annual convention today, but,
announcing he was unable to at
tend, he delegated William w.
Werntz, chief accountant of the
S. E. c., to read the speech.
Saying a policy of "gradualness
and intelligent compromise" was
being followed by the S. E. c., Mr..
Frank warned that I'VE are not ap-
peaserS" and added: I'VE 60 along
with those who believe there are
some fundamental principles which
must not be compromised"
Mr.. Frank, asserting the S. E. c.
was not setting up policy of ABB
solutism," said: I'VE do not want
dictators, nor even an elected Gov
eminent, to manage all the affairs of
| life"
Large areas of industry need no
governmental regulation" he ex-
planned. And, even where regula-
ton is needed, it should not be all
of the same pattern. 1t should vary
! according to the peculiar character
istics of the particular regulated in
dustry.
In some industries it should take
the form Of governmental consulta-
ton and cooperation. In others
some form of industrial self-regula-
ton, with residual Government
| supervision, is sufficient. In others
experience shows that varying de-
grees of more drastic regulation is
necessary.

POTATO RING ROT
IS A new DISEASE
MARYLAND Growers Warn
ed Against 1t; Preva-
lent In Canada

The attention of potato growers
in Maryland is called to a new dis
ease which has been reported this
year in practically every potato
growing state and Canada. The
disease is known as ring rot and
is considered serious in that it
Wits the vines and rOts the tu-
bers.
Usually the disease cannot be
detected in the field until the
vines are almost mature. 1t may
be recognized at digging time but
quite frequently it is not detected
until one or two months after the
potatoes have been dug.
According to DR.. Robert A. Jehle
specialist in pathology for the eX-
tension service, the disease is car
ried in the seed and produces
yellow ring in the flesh near the
surface of the potato. POCKETS
form in this ring and become fill
ed with an odOrless, cheesellke
substance. Cracks often appear
on the surface of the potato and
the entire center may disintegrate
and leave only a shell. Organ
isms frequently invade the infect
ed potato and cause soft rot.
There is no evidence that the
disease lives over in the soil but
infection may be carried on a
knife from one tuber to another II
the knife is not steriliZed. Or.
Lehle urges that as ring rot is
carried in tie seed great care
should be taken to plant only dis
ease free seed. All fields in which
ring rot has been found are dis
qualified for certification. Last
wear ring rot was found in Wor-
cester county field which had
been planted with uncertifled
Western-grown seed
Although certified seed is very
much safer than uncertlfied SEED,
the disease sometimes occurs IN
certified stock. as late infections
NAV not be caught by the inspec-
tors. When suitable varieties can
be obtained. the safest seed to use
in Maryland is certified Garrett
county seed from stock that has
been grown in that county for at
least three years. Ring rot has
never been found in Garrett coun-
ty and potato Growers in that
county should continue to plant
only those potatoes which have
been grown there for several years
if they wish to avoid the danger
of Introducing ring rot.

increase in the number of charged particles.
 The increase is almost wholly in positive particles This is equiva- lent to exhaling a little positive elec- tricity into the air
 Tn laboratory experiments, Prof. Tchijevski says, he has proved that these positive electrical particles slow down the exchange" of gases in the lungs. Exchange means talk ing up oxygen from the air and giv- ing off carbon dioxide from the lungs
 Consequently in the crowded room the lungs have to work a little harder, not because of lock of oxy- gen in the air, but due to the posi- tiv electricity.
 AS further demonstration of this Prof. Tchijevsky experimented with air containing an excess of negative electrical particles and found that this kind of electricity speeds up the breathing exchange"
