Brookings Urges Limit
On U.S.. Road Funds Use
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
The Brookings Institution said
today 1t had found the public roads
system still was used chiefly by local
community traf1ic and concluded
therefore that Federal expenditures
should be limited to activities
clearly serving broad, national
purposes"
The institution, a privately funded
research organization, said traffic
surveys showed about IS per cent
OF all passenger car trips beyond
city limits and about 80 per cent
OF truck trips covered less than 20
miles. More than one-third of rural
road trips are made by vehicles
shutting for less than S miles and
fewer than 2 per cent go more
than 100 miles from the starting
point, the institution said.
Unsurfaced roads, constituting
as per cent Of the national total,
carry less than 10 per cent of the
trafdc, the report said. Then 1t
added that Although there has
been considerable agitation for Fed
eral assumption of costs to improve
the vast local highway system Of
1000, 900 miles, the transportation
which it provides is of value pri-
marily to local residents"

Trial Of Dr.. BIumberg
On Dies Charges Postponed

Justice James w. Morris today
set February II as the date for the
trial OF DR.. Albert Blumberg of Bal
timore, reputed Communist leader,
indicted on charges of failing to
answer questions put to him before
the Dies Committee nearly two
years ago.
Although the trial of DR.. Blum
berg was scheduled for today, De-
fenee Counsel Charles E. Ford an
nolinced that one of his associates
is engaged in other work and re-
quested a delay of several days.
Representing the Government,
Assistant United States Attorney
Charles B. Murray requested that
because of the absence from the
city of one of the Government wit
nesses, February II be set as the
trial date.
DR.. Blumberg was present in
court.

WeIder Dies in Blast
Caused by Gas Fumes
Al Georgetown Shop
Explosion Knocks Down
Two Heavy Doors and
Skaters Windows

Thrown to the ceiling by an ex-
plosion which partially wrecked q
Georgee0Wn workshop, Wren Car
Isle, l2-ysar-old welder of 1914 N
street NV, was almost instantly
killed yesterday.
Coroner A. Magruder Macdonald,
who issued . certificate of acci-
dental death, reported today that
the welder was entering a 4,100-gal-
Ion trailer gasoline tank when gaso-
line fumes exploded. Fellow work.
men were quoted as saying the tank
had been drained of gasoline and
steamed" for 16 hours to eliminate
fumes.
Nevertheless, the explosion was
sufficient to knock down two heavy
front doors of the He'll Body Co.
shop at 3137 K street NV, and to

Latin America May Join
Tarif.5uspension Pact

Secretary Of State Hull indicated
today that the principle OF an agree.
ment with Canada for suspension OF
tariff duties on military supplies
moving between the two countries
for the duration Of the war might
be extended to such dealings with
Latin America.
He said the matter was largely
one for the other American repub-
lies to decide, because bulk OF mill
tary supplies involved would be 60
ing from this country to the other
nations in this hemisphere.
The Secretary added, however,
that he assumed that the spirit Of
the policy adopted by the United
States and Canada would be in the
minds of the other American gov
ernments.
He pointed out that the Canadian
agreement was designed to facih-
tate the transfer Of war supplies
between the two countries, not af-
fecting regular commercial trade.
