Shakeup in State
Welfare Setup
Times star Correspondent

LANSING, June 26.-The state
social welfare commission today
wrestled with the problem Of re-
organizing its department TO af-
feet a 100000 annual saving and
maintaining its present set-up as
recommended by the federal gov
eminent.
The civil service commission has
requested the former as a means
of streamlining the department and
effecting economies while the fed
eral government, which bears part
of the welfare cost, is against IT.
Miss Rhoda O'Meara,r regional
supervisor for the social security
board, wrote the commission adj
vising against indignation and con-
solidation of the welfare depart
ment, pointing out that federal
authorities do not favor fusion.
The federal viewpoint was dis
cussed at the first of the two-day
meeting here yesterday but no
definite action was expected until
today. Meanwhile the commission
voted to establish a $1,000 fund
which will enable the state TO
participate in a federal plan TO
take care OF war casualties and
children of interned enemy ma
tiOnals."

Dr.. chaf!es Moore,
Ex-Qhairman Of Fine
Arts Board, Dies
Spent More Thon Half
Century On Beoutifyine
National CopitoI

Word, was. received here today
that Dn Charles Moore, who had
served as chairman of the Fine Arts
Commission for % years until his
retirement in 1887. died today at his
home in Gig Harhor, Wash, less
than month before he would have
been 81 years of age.
Present members of the Fine
Arts Commission were notified Of
the death by DR.. Moores son, Nc
Allister Moore.
DR.. Moore was recognized here
as having devoted more than half
a century to beautifying the Ma
tional Capital. Early in his career,
when he was a clerk to the Senate
District, Committee, he wrote va
rious reports which resulted in the
elimination of grade crossings, the
improvement of charitable insti-
tutions7 and an increase in the
Districts water supply.
While he was secretary of the
Mcmillan Commission, plans were
developed which have been the basis
of the city's development for more
than 40 years.
Among other improvements made
as a result of this commissions
efforts were the removal of rail-
road tracks from the Mall. the con-
struction OF Union Station. selec-
ton of Che sites for the Lincoln
Memorial and the Memorial Bridge
and the reclama ton of swamp land
for what is now Potomac Park.
Dr. Moore was one of the orig
inal members of the Fine Arts Com
mission which was established in
1910. He became It's chairman five
years later and remained in this
post until he retired in 1887.

y. 5. Agrees TO Subsidize
Cooking Oil Products

The Government owned Com
modify Credit Corp. has agreed to
subsidize professors to the extent
of $16, ,000. 900 on crude vegetable oils
to prevent the disappearance from
grocery shelves of shortening, salad
and cooking oils, it was announced
today.
Professors will be subsidized to
the extent of one-half cent a pound
on such oils as peanut, soybean and
cotton seed. The once of Price
Administration said the subsidy plan
was chosen rather than a plan
which would have meant another
break through in ceiling prices. The
sl6,o00,00o subsidy applies on the
large 1912 crop, processing of which
may not be completed in l8 months.
The Commodity Credit Corp. will
buy crude oils at ceiling prices and
sell to professors at one-half cent
under the ceiling. Correspondingly.
professors prices were lowered by
one-haf cent. thus permitting proc
essors to maintain their present
margin. This will permit grocers to
purchase oils without increasing the
price to consumers. 1t also guaran-
tees an adequate return to farmers.
OPA said cooking oil products
have been disappearing from retail
stores because retailers could not
carry them profltably.

Tank Cars

tank cars, according to some stu
dents of the problem
Senator Maloney began last fall to
advocate increased use of railroad
tank cars to replace the tank ships,
which were prevented by war needs
and the submarine menace from
bringing the East its normal oil
supply.
Maximum Use of All Methods.
In summing up, the report said:
with the principal sources of
the United States rubber supply
in the hands of Japan, and with the
Nation at war, the problem Of
petroleum transportation and allo-
cation in the United States, and
especially on the East coast, assumes
greater proportions now than in the
fall of last year.
Now, as then, the committee real
izes that the economic welfare of
the Nation revolves around efficient
transportation systems. At this
time, as in the fall Of last year,
the committee recommends the
maximum use of all methods of
petroleum transportation and es-
pecially the emergency use OF rail-
road tank cars for petroleum until
assistance is made possible by the
planned improvements OF pipelines,
barges and inland waterways"

Near East Air Forces
OF Allies Declared
Equal 10 Axis
Developments Requiring
More Extensive Use
Seen by Raj Officer
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CAIRO, Sept. 25.-The United
Nations are maintaining an air
strength equal to the enemy's in
the Near East, but face possible
early developments which may
require more extensive use OF
their forces, a senior staff officer
of the Raj in this theater said
today.
In review for war correspond
ents, he reported that the Allies air
assaults on the Axis Mediterranean
lifeline-the most vulnerable supply
route Of the enemy-had reached a
new high in the last three months
Since June l. he said, the Allied
airrnen have sunk $4,000 tons of
Axis shipping and damaged another
10000 tons. In attacks on the Axis
North African ports, Tobruk, Libya,
alone was visited on 95 days OF the
last 100.
This alone had a considerable ef-
feet in the decisive defeat of Mar
shall Rommels fruitless "reconnais-
sance in force from the western
desert toward the Nile Valley early
this month.
Among possibilities of the future,
1t was said, were the chance that
the northern Iranian' wing of this
air command might grow in impor-
tance, and that the end of the non
soon season in the Indian Ocean
area might bring an increase in
Japanese activity necessitating wider
dispersal Of air power in the Near
East.
The officer pointed out that bases
would be- maintained in Southern
Iran and on the Arabian Coast to
guard against possible Japanese sub
marine attempts to interfere with
conveys bound for the Near East.

La Toilette Says DC. Needs
VenereaI Detention Unit

Earlier Story on Page B-1D
Need for 100-bed detention unit
at Galltnger Hospital to help con-
troll venereal disease was described
today by Senator La Toilette at a
luncheon meeting Of the Washing
ton Institute Of Social Protection at
the .YWCA.
Senator La Toilette warned that
"the control Of venereal disease
among the civilian population is es-
sential to the conduct Of the war"
The Senator said District author
ities should put an end to fines and
should, wherever evidence warrants
impose convictions and maximum
sentences.
"Only through cooperation of the
police. the District Attorneys office,
the courts, welfare agencies and the
general public can we. hope to get
the Nations Capital out of Group 4
In the Army's list of cities where
venereal disease Is contracted"
As sponsor of the enabling legis-
lation which inaugurated the We
ncreal disease control program un-
der the Public Health service, Sem
ator La Toilette said it was most
unfortunate that after the First
World War efforts to carry on the
campaign against the disease among
the civilian population were aban-
doned In all but few States.
During the World War he re-
ported. the number Of venereal
disease cases exceeded battle casual
ties by more than 100000, while
6,804,818 man-days were lost be-
cause Of the disease during the war
period.
In the last war, he said, Army
venereal disease rates Appropriated
100 per 1000 men a year. In this
war. they have been in the neigh
borhood of 10 per 1000 for 194l and
50 per 1000 in the first half Of 1912.

De Luce
Continued From First PaEe.)

New York BY liner, but travel then
was no problem.
When he left Poland, not many
months later, the Nazi invasion had
lit the spark and Mr.. De, Luce made
his way to Rumania,, as he said, by
the refugee route in bagtage
wagon"
From there on, he travelled aboard
any vehicle that could roll, float or
fiy. -
While he covered the war in
Greece, spending four months with
the Greeks on the Albanian front,
Mrs. De Luce held the home front
in an apartment in Budapest.
Before the fall Of Greece, she got
the permits and transportation and
reached him In Southern Greece in
time for the next jump-by fishing
boat from . little Greek harbor to
the Turkish Coast near Smyrna.
Watched Iran Occupation.
Trouble was stewing In the OIL
rich Kingdom Of Iran. Mr.. De Luce
went to Teheran in time to greet the
British and Russian. forces which
occupied the capital.
Quiet came under 4 new Shah
and the occupation forces and Mr.
De Luce moved on.
With Mrs. De Luce, he drove 1900
miles across Afghanistan to Balu-
chistan and rode q train across m
dia to Calcutta. He fiew to Lashio,
Burma, and then reversed Kipling
by driving In a station wagon from
Mandalay to Rangoon.
He was over Moulmein in q Brit
ish bomber when the Japanese were
pulling up on the south bank of the
Salween River estuary. The next
time he fiew over, they were cross
ing it.
From then on Mr.. De Luce's trav-
els were aimed at getting to the
scene of action in Burma, getting
out to file his story, and getting back
for more. His transportation was by
jeep. &c.,. e..
He saw Rangoon burn and fall
and the tide Of japanese aggression
roll relentlessly northward. Once,
at Maymyo, the uplands summer
capital he was told the telegraph
to Mandalay was down and a few
minutes later he saw Japanese
bombers flying over high in the sky.
The deduction was inevitable. Mr..
De Luce raced toward Mandalay
and saw that city aflame from Is
miles away =
His last stand in Burma was at
Shwebo, the last British and Amer
ican headquarters. From there he
drove his jeep across wild desert
and jungle country up the Chind-
win River Valley, ferried across and
went en- into India's Naga Hills
back to Calcutta. ..-.
They call them hills" said Mr..
De Luce, but some of the passes
were 5000 feet up and higher"
He does not know just how many
thousands OF miles he covered. but
he does know that from India home,
the last and easiest of his wander
ings, was 5000 miles alone.
He flew-by flying boat to Cairo,
where ne saw the desert front. and
thence by air stages to New York.
