Auto Club Gives Rules
For Safety in Cycling

To aid in reducing bicycling acci-
dents, the Keystone Automobile
Club today recommended 10 rules
for cyclists.
They include: Obey all traffic sig
nails, signs and rules; ride in single
file; keep out Of car tracks and
ruts: don't attempt stunts or race
in traffic; don't carry passenger
or permit children on roller skates
to hitch a ride; always signal in
tention to make right or left turns:
make repairs of the travelled por-
ton of the roadway; walk the bike
across heavy traffic unless controlled
by an officer or traffic light: don't
hitch rides on moving vehicles and
always keep brakes and front and
rear lights in good operating condi-
ton.
At the same time. the club re-
vealed that five planks in its plat
form for the coming year have re-
ceived unanimous approval from
the GA persons voting thus far.
Among them are proposals for
the hiring of additional trained per-
sonnel by the Police Department to
analyze and interpret traffic acci-
dent statistics; city-wide use of
street name signs more visible to
motorists at night; continuance of
the safety education program which
last year brought the District ma
tional recognition as the safest large
city in the country: more play
grounds and school gardens for the
use Of children throughout the year,
and improvement Of park roads to
provide greater safety for motorists.

Prisoner Freed, Officers
Quizzed in Assault

Judge Hobart Newman Of Police
Court yesterday called on two po-
Ices officers to explain their own
actions after dismissing charges
against a defendant accused of as
saulting them.
The head of the defendant. Earl
w. Banks, 80, of the HOO block Of
Twenty fifth street NV, was COW
cred with bandages and his shirt
spattered with blood when he was
arraigned. He was charged with
assaulting Policeman Daniel D. SIM
mons and Special Policeman Harry
Tipp, who were not in the court
room when Mr.. Banks was ar
raigned. In addition, Mr.. Banks
faced a disorderly conduct charge.
Judge Newman questioned Mr..
Banks, then ordered the three
charges against him dismissed and
the officers brought into court.
Policeman Simmons and Special
Officer Tipp appeared. When Judge
Newman ased them What did you
beat up that fellow like that for?"
Policeman Simmons told of arrest
ing Banks near Meridian Hill Park
for disorderly conduct. He claimed
the man struck him and kicked
Special Officer Tipp. Officer Sim
mons said Mr.. Banks cursed him
and ran when he started to question
him.
After listening Judge Newman OBJ
served: Il think you all can be
thankful the case is dismissed"

Parents Are Reminded
To Vaccinate Children
Bv the Associated Press.

Bv the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, Md, Aug. 12.-With
approximately 10000 students pre-
pairing to enter Maryland public
schools this fall, DR.. r. H. Riley,
State Health Department director,
reminded parents yesterday that
vaccination against smallpox is COM
pulsory before any child may enroll
for the first time.
Observing that this is State law.
DR.. Riley said that largely through
this requirement ''the State has been
kept comparatively free from small
pox. We have not had case of
that disease for over 10 years-but
smallpox is widely prevalent in other
parts of the country; is highly con-
tagious, and the only way to be pro-
tected against it is by vaccination. ("
The health director advised that
all children be given a complete
physical checkup before starting
school SO that conditions needing
correction might be attended to now.

Two District Bills
Passed by Senate
Go 10 President
Measures Affect Burial
OF Needy Blind and
New Oil Pipe Line

A bill to authorize the District
government to pay burial expenses
of needy blind persons, one of five
local measures passed by the Sem
ate yesterday, is ready to go to the
White House today for signature.
A second bill, authorizing the lay
ing of petroleum pipe lines under
M street and Thirteenth street Sc.
subject to regulations by the Dis
the President to be signed.
The other three bills likewise had
passed the House but must 60 back
to that body for action on Senate
amendments.
Three Bills Back in House.
They are:
Authorizing the Federal Security
Administration to accept and ad-
minister gifts for st. Elizabeth's
Hospital.
Authorizing the admission to st.
Elizabeth's Hospital of personnel
of the American foreign service
who are adjudged insane in any
foreign country, and whose legal
residence in one of the States cam
not be established.
Authorizing the issuance of spe-
cial congressional automobile tags
to certain officials of the House and
Senate as well as to members of
Congress.
Senate Delays Action on Two.
Senate action was postponed on
two other local bills. Senator Byrd,
Democrat, of Virginia objected to
passage of a measure designed to
make the records of persons on re-
lief confidential.
Senator Danaher, Republican, of
Connecticut asked for delay on bill
to permit Federal and District en-
ployes to serve as witnesses in court
without loss of annual leave. He
explained he is not against the bill
but wants time to prepare an
amendment.
At the request of Senator Cap
per, Republican, of Kansas the Sen
ate took no action on the adverse
report filed by the Judiciary Com
