Inaugural Gives
Refuse Men
Worst Job
Wind Plays Havoc
With Litter Left
By Huge Crowd

The inaugural parade route was
virtually clean as a whistle" this
morning, all streetcar loading plat
forms were in place again, and
Pennsylvania avenue returned to
normal after the litter of truckloads
of boxes, baskets and assorted trash
had been removed.
1T was the worst job we ever
haG," according to William A. Kan
ten, supervisor of the District Refuse
Division.
There was less trash than we
had after the two big Shrine con-
claveS, the 1888 Inauguration and
the King and Queen of England
had driven down the Avenue, but the
high wind caused trouble"
Papers we're blown for blocks
off the Avenue. Some were scat
tered as far as deep Southwest
Washington. This made the job OF
the whitewings difficult.
Water System Unavailable.
If it had not been so cold, he ex-
planned, water could have been
used to plant" the paper on the
pavement, where it could have
been swept up easily. But the tenn
perature was so low yesterday that
this system would have coated the
Avenue with a sheet of ice.
Work of cleaning up the Avenue
started as soon as the inaugural pa
rade was over. A force of 200 men
and 80 trucks rushed into the lob
under personal supervision of Mr.
Xanten. All kinds of boxes and bas-
kets. which had been used for seats
by curbStone spectators, Uttered the
sidewalks, and newspapers and trash
was scattered from Second street
NV. westward far past the White
House.
In ali, 1l2 truckloads of litter were
hauled away and burned in the two
lncinerators, in Georgetown and in
Southeast Washington.
Informal Gang of Scavengers.
Many baskets were salvaged by an
informal gang of scavengers. who
trooped onto the Avenue as soon as
they were permitted. They stacked
up the baskets and carted them off
for resale.
The streetcar loading platforms.
removed to make way for the pa
rade, were replaced, beginning at
midnight The platforms are re-
moved and replaced by workers of
the District Highway Department,
but the piles of dirt which collect
under them are cleared away by the
Refuse Department.
These piles of dirt always turn into
pay dirt for the Workmen, because
the old policy of finders keepers
loosers weepers." prevails. Men from
the highway department who re-
move the platforms, get the first
coins found under the platform, but
the refuse gang, going through the
dirt, usually gets more money.
Most OF the coins are nickels and
dimes, but sometimes there are quar-.
tiers dropped by streetcar passengers
When the refuse gang Cleaned out
the dirt for the inaugural they
cleaned up to the tune of about
$40 in pay dirt"

Red Cross System Is

The most elaborate first-aid sys-

Many of those who required hos

by the District Chapter of the
American Red Cross and included

expensive and had other disadvan-
tages and fell into disuse.
But DR.. Robinson kept at the
problem. He discovered that the in
sects helped wounds to heal because
of certain secretions they made. He
analyZed the secretions and dis
covered that one of them was a
chemical known as Allantoin, an
other known as Urea and a third
was Ammonium bicarbonate.
Since he made this discovery. a
million dollar-a-year industry has
grown up TO produce Allantoin.
Hundreds of lives have been saved
by application of the chemical to
wounds. Allantoin treatment costs
three cents. where the maggot treat
ment cost So Urea is even cheaper
The Judas mosquitoes are the
property of the anti-insect men at
Beltsville These men are discover
ing newer ways to kill bugs-from
housef1les to army worms.
They raise their own insects
tenderly and carefully under the
most ideal conditions. They feed
them nothing but the best-much
of it stuff raised on the spot-and
then, with cold scientific detach-
ment, they kill them.
Mosquitoes Helpful.
The mosquitoes at Beltsville have
been very helpful-by betraying
their fellows. These are local mos
quitoes. who very accommodatingly
come around to lay eggs in the
tubs which have been set up for
insect trysts. The scientists swipe
the eggs and hatch the larvae.
Then they take different kinds of
poison which other Agriculture De-
partment men have prepared and
see what proportion of the mosquito
larvae succumbs to each poison.
They report back to the department,
which then brews the potent poisons.
They're working hard to develop
something that will be as hard on
mosquitoes as prohibition gin was
on the American people.
You can't find out how to kill bugs
or how to raise them by guesswork,
though. They have instruments
which measure insects heart beats,
to tell what reaction certain poison
causes. Beltsville is building the
better bug-and. to even things up.

At the Agriculture Departments
Research Center in Beltsville, Md.
where scientists are building tVds,
beasts, bugs and buds to blueprint
design-they can tell you something
about the trouble involved in pro-
ducing a new model honey burner.
Not so long ago, they turned out a
nifty bee with longer tongue, just
to prove that it could be done. Why
would a bee want longer tongue?
Go to the foot of the class, Bullard
Anybody knows that bee with a
long tongue can dig deep down into
the big flowers and get honey that
other bees can only dream about.
Heart beats OF Bugs Counted.
The work of rebuilding the bee
is done in the entomology section of
Beltsville, where also dwell the Judas
mosquitoes and the unemployed mag
gots. where scientists count bugs
heart beats and raise special foods
for their very special insects.
The scientists are divided on the
bug questions-some are for them
and some against. The bee men, OF
course, are pro-insect. They have
just begun to bring forth their su-
per-bee. They know what they want
"a bee with a gentle disposition, a
love of home. and ability to fly at
low temperatures without anti-freeze
aboard, extra storage space for
honey, long. hairy legs and some
distinguishing characteristic like
white eyes or the Stars and Stripes
on its wings.
They will select bees which may
have one of these traits and will
cross-breed until they get the insect
which has all of them. When better
bees are built, Beltsville will build
them.
Among the other scientists favor

son, who has put lot of maggots
out of work. DR.. Robinson started
work in the Agriculture Department
years ago when it was first discov-
cred that maggots were highly USE
full to medical science, because they
could heal human wounds.
There was great stir about the
discovery and for some years this
method of treatment was used to
