New Medical Problems in
Guarding Aviotor's Health

should E'n lurrrt be-? The gun
turrct Is useless unless an average
young adult man can efficiently use
the guns in the turrct. lie must
wear adequate clothing and have
oxygen and intcrcommunicatio
equipment. and he must have an
even chance Of getting out of the
turr't IN hurry in case abandon
mcnt of aircraft is necessary.
Clothing a Problem
One of the most intricate prob
lens which the aviation physician
has had To solve is that Of the avia-
tors clothing. The heat rcgula-
ton of the body can compensate
under ordinary circumstances for
chahg"S IN cnvironmcntal tenn
p"raiurcs. But when YOU poStulatc
changes IN temperature and Giti-
'""' made IN a few minutes. the
normal adjustments OF the body
entirely fail unless artiticially
helped.
And consider that III tropical
climates the temperature inside IN
arpianc which has been sitting ON
the ground may he 100 +. to
ll0 T.. and that the aviator must
enter that temperature in clothes
that !" few minutes will protect
HIM from the extreme cold of high
attitudes. and you will see YOU
have a problem that was never
dr"amt of IN the philosophy of the

Aviation medicine requires under
any conditions very special train

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

having them removed by doc
tor?
Answer: Not safely; the process

Although the national Office OF
Civilian Defense contends it has
made arrangements to continue OPP
erations at night, it is no model OF
blackout preparations itself, it was
learned today.
Employees who work at night will
be directed to desks in halls with
lights that cannot be viewed outside
the building, thus following the
lights out policy and completely
ceasing operations in regular offices.
If a survey of Offices throughout
the Dupont Circle Apartment indi-
Gates that more people want to work
at night than can be provided for, a
quota system" will be established
which, under continuous blackout,
would mean people would have to
take turns working at night.
Would Take Long Time.
In explaining why the only
blacked-out windows are few that
employees took it upon themselves
to cover, George Cronyn, assistant
building warden and o. c. D. in
formation official, said, ''It couldn't
be done in a few days. 1t would
take long time"
He went on to explain that I'VE
can't take our own money and go
out and buy that stuff; we would
have to requisition for it"
He also pointed out that the Du-

Football Authority, Dies

BY the Associated Press.
YONKERS, N. Y, March 3.-Wil-
liam Spaight Langford, 68, long
time secretary of the National Col
legiate Athletic Associations Rules
Committee, died yesterday at his
home after an illness of more than
year.
He had held the Rules Committee
post from the early 1920s until his
retirement in 1910. In addition, he
was one of the top gridiron referees
from 1904 through 1919.
The last game at which he Of
ficiated was the 1919 Army Navy
contest.
AS secretary of the Rules Commit
tee, Mr.. Langford made public all
football rules changes and OCCASION
ally clarified them with newspaper
articles.
Born in Yonkers, he was educated
in Trinity College at Hartford,
Conn, and captained the 1896 Trim
ity football team the year of his
graduation.
In his officiating years, he refereed
Harvard, Yale AMI Princeton games
primarily. In 1927 he was named
supervisor to select all officials Cor
games played by Dartmouth, Har-
ward and Yale. Two years ago. he
received the annual Touchdown
Club award for his contributions to
football.
His widow, a son, william S.
Langford, Sd, of Dobbs Ferry, N. Y,
and four daughters survive.

o. C. D., including some War De-
partment offices.
IF we blacked out our own three
floors" he said, "it wouldn't 40
much good for the rest of the build
ing"
The Dupont Circle is one of the
391 Federal buildings under the
Public Buildings Administration.
Large Purchases Not Contemplated.
Mr.. Cronyn said he had seen a
memorandum to the effect that the
purchase of a great amount OF black
out material for Federal buildings
was not contemplated because OF
the cost.
He said he had had no indication
that a continuous nightly blackout
would be ordered, that predictions
that it would be ordered were pure
guesswork" and that, in any case,
I'VE could operate If necessary for a
month" under the arrangement
worked out for tonight.
To insure the ights-out procedure
for external rooms, wardens will
patrol the floors throughout the
night.
Well satisfied with the build
ing's turn-out-the-l -lights-and-sit-in-
the-hall policy, Mr.. Cronyn said:
IF it can be done in this building,
it can be done anywhere"

Vinson Asks Navy 10 Put
WincheII on Active Duty

Chairman Vinson of the Naval
Affairs Committee informed the
House yesterday he had urged the
Navy Department either to drop
the name of 1t. Comdr. Walter
Winchell from the rolls or to call
him to active duty.
He explained he had advised the
action in answer to question from
Representative Hoffman, Repub-
lican, of Michigan and following his
own denial that 1t. Franklin D.
Roosevelt, jr.. had been given IA
vored treatment by the Navy.
Mr.. Hoffman's question involved
a charge that Mr.. Winchell, news
paper columnist, drew a salary for
a weekly radio broadcast which he
made in his uniform as a naval rep
resentative. The favored treat
ment denial was aimed at Repre-
sentative Pheiffer, Republican, of
New York, who said the Presidents
son had been given more time to
recuperate from an operation for
appendicitis than usually is re-
quired.
MIR. Vinson said Mr.. Pheiffer's
charge was "unwarranted and un-
justified" and that it was "incon-
sistent with the true facts"
Mr.. Winchell, quoted in New York,
said he had been member of the
Naval Reserve since 1884 and had
asked for active duty, but that the
Navy thought he could be Of more
service in his present capacity.

District Government Behind
In Its Blockout Preparations
Evidently Excepted From Toniehts Test
Because Few Buildings Are Ready

The District government, which
has consistently urged its citizens
to prepare now against the time
when total nightly blackouts may
be the'rule. has evidently excepted
itself from tonights blackout prac-
tice because of the spottiness Of its
own preparations.
If District government buildings
make an impressive showing during
tonight's blackout period it will be
partly due to lights-out procedure
and partly to the individual initia-
tive of various local agencies which
took matters into their own hands.
When Col. Lemuel Bolles, execu-
tive of District civilian defense, was
asked yesterday why the District
was excepted from the blackout
order he responded that District
agencies were "well-equipped with
switches and controls" and that
the residents Of the District were
the ones with whom this practice
is concerned.
Under Various Superintendents.
In seeking the compliance of Dis
trict residents with his requests to
black out, however, he has continu-
ally pointed out that the goal is the
normal continuation of civilian and
official activities even If nightly
all-night blackouts are ordered.
Unlike the Federal setup, where
most buildings are under the wing
of the Public Buildings Administra-
ton, District buildings and opera
tions are under various superin-
tendents, although the recent trend
has been to put all new buildings
under Edward P. Brooke. District
superintendent of buildings.
Only two buildings under his
supervision see much night service
the District Building, which
houses the local civilian defense
offices, and the East Administra-
ton Building, which houses police
headquarters and other District
Offices although the War Depart
ment occupies so per cent of the
building.
Mr.. Brooke said he had been
making a study of the blackout
situation since early in January.
His labors and funds from his office
went into reinforcing shades and
providing new ones in some Offices.
Not to take any chances of their
effectiveness, however, he has in
formed the buildings under his
supervision-with the exception OF
the East Administration building
that lights out policy would be
in effect tonight and cleanup crews
will not be operating.
Commissioners Shade Windows.
Until yesterday, despite his long
term efforts, no blackout materials
had been put up in the civilian de-
fense office or in the Commissioners
offices. The curtains were installed
at these points late yesterday.
He said he had no financial prob
lem until he was asked about the
East Administration building. Al

Justice Jesse C. Adkins in Dis
trict Court today took under ad-
visement an international tangle
revolving around 7-year-old girl,
who sought American citizenship.
The question Is whether the child,
adopted by an Army officer and his
wife in the United States District
Court in Tientsin, China, satisfies
the requirements of the American
nationality laws that say that
adoption must be in this country.
The child. pretty Edith Josephine
johnson, adopted by Maj. and Mrs.
William Everett johnson, sat wide
eyed in the courtroom and watched
the foreign-born adults being ad-
mitted to citizenship. Claire, Mrs.
Johnson's own 6-year-old child, also
was in court.
Both children were dressed exact
ly alike.
Josephine was born of a Russian
mother and American soldier father
at Tientsin in 1884 The Johnsons
adopted her when she was less than
year old.
Eugene Cole, examiner in the I'M
migration and Naturalization Serv-
ice of the Department of Justice,
raised the question as to whether
Josephine was legally adopted
within the United States"
He said the court in Tientsin is
an extra-territorial, court. and in
asmuch as the United States ma
tionality code Is new there are no
precedents. ,- ...
IF the courts Of the United States
don't respect decisions of our own
court in China, who should do it?"
Justice Adkins asked.
Mr.. Cole made it clear that he
was not questionin" the legality Of
the adoption in China.
Representing various non-enemy
nationalities, 40 persons were ad-
mitted to citizenship.
Justice Adkins repatriated two
Americans who had lost their citi-
zenship.

Final House Action
Sought on Proposal
To Merge Courts
MeCorron Says Bill
Will Tighten Task
Of Overworked Jurists

Representative McGehee, Demo-
crat, of Mississippi said today he
would ask the House to expedite
final action on a bill providing for
consolidation of the District Police
and Municipal Courts.
The legislation has passed both
House and Senate. The former,
however, has yet to approve changes
made by the Senate yesterday in the
House-approved version, before 1t
can be sent to President Roosevelt
for signature.
Chairman Randolph of the House
District Committee placed Mr.. Nc
Gehee in charge Of the bill because
of his necessary absence from WASH
ington for several days. Mr.. Nc
Gehee Is chairman of the Judiciary
Subcommittee of the House District
Committee which handled the legis-
lation in its early stages.
Relieve Federal Courts.
The bill not only provides for
merger of the two courts into a
super municipal court but also Gre
ates an intermediate court Of ap-
peals to act on appeals from the
combined court. The new municipal
court would have 10 judges and the
intermediate court of appeals 8.
One of the principal purposes Of
the measure Is designed to relieve
the Federal courts of the District
of civil cases. The new municipal
court would have jurisdiction over
cases involving suits up to $4,000
The limitation of the present Mu-
nicipal Court in such cases is 81 600.
One Of the major changes made
in the House-approved bill by the
Senate-an amendment sponsored
by Senator Tydings, Democrat, of
Maryland-would allow lawyers who
have practiced in Washington for
five years and who live within
radius of 10 miles of the District to
be eligible for appointment to the
benches of the unified court.
Judges Greatly Overworked."
Senate action followed an ex-
PLANTATION Of the bill by Chairman
McCarran of the District Com
mittee. He pointed out the legis-
lation had been subjected to 'in-
tensive study" by the committee as
we'll as by the judges of the District
courts, representatives of the Justice
Department, the District Bar As
sociation and prominent legal au-
thorities.
Further, he declared, the legis-
lation would relieve the overworked
judges of the Police and Municipal
Courts.
"At present" he said, there are
judges on the local bench who are
greatly overworked. There are
some who are not carrying a full
share of the work. Under the new
system it is hoped that each judge
will carry a full share"
Anticipating that the House will
not approve all of the changes it
made in the bill, the Senate named
conferees in case the legislation is
sent to conference. The Senate
Conference Committee will be COM
posed of Senators McCarran, Over
ton, Democrat, of Louisiana, and
Burton, Republican, of Ohio.
