Zoo Director Goes to Station
To Meet Distinguished Visitors

DR. William M. Mann, director of
the Washington Zoo, was among the
hundreds of Washingtonians who
journeyed to the Union Station to-
day to await the arrival of visitors.
In DR.. Manns case, however, the
expected guests were not dignitaries
of the usual sort. He was meeting
pair of rare Kagu birds, being
brought to Washington from New
Caledonia by 1t. John H. Pulling
The birds, of an almost extinct spe-
cies, resembling the sea gull, had
been requested by the Smithsonian
Institution, 1t. Fulling explained on
arriving in this country.
Before he undertook the trip, he
said, he read every book on ornithol-
ogy available. Next, he constructed
a box that resembled the birds for

then he boarded a plane for base

to take trip to the United States.
The birds became upset on the
plane flight. There was no sleep
that night" said 1t. Fulling, nor
for many after it."
Aboard ship the birds began los
ing weight-and also their feathers
to add to 1t. Fulling's worries.
With an engine room oiler. an anna
teur ornithologist, he worked out a
diet they seemed to like. But the
birds stayed seasick throughout the
voyage.
They were very sick birds when
they landed and Ft. Fulling and a
San Francisco doctor hovered over
them for days before they began to
recover, he said.

Under Proposed Law

Measure to Require

today approved a bill designed to
put teeth" in the concealed weapon
law-legislation which would make
1t illegal openly to carry gun or
any other dangerous weapon, with
out permit issued by the Superin-
tendent of Police.
Committee Chairman McCarran,
sponsor of the measure, said it
would "catch those fellows" who go
around with shotguns on their
shoulders or pistols in q holster and
keep within the law because they
don't conceal the weapons.
The committee also favorably re-
ported bill authorizing Lans-
burgh's department store to con-
struct two pipe lines to carry steam
for heating purposes under Eighth
street NV. between D and E streets,
and another which would authorize
the Alcohol Beverage Control Board
to issue license to clubs composed
of members of the armed forces
of the United Nations to sell liquor
by the drink Existing laW restricts
the, issuance Of such hcenSes only to
clubs owned and operated by citi-
zens OF the United States.
The committee referred to q sub
committee for consideration another
bill introduced by Senator McCar-
ran which Is intended to modernize
the sanitary code governing the
operation of restaurants in the Dis
trict.
Senator McCarran explained the
sanitation law should be strength
ened in view of insanitary conditions
found in a number of eating places
by Health Department inspectors.
To subcommittee, the committee
also referred bills to give the Super
intendent of Insurance authority to
impose fines for minor violations Of
the insurance laws instead Of the
present mandatory revocation or
suspension of licenses, and amend
ing the Public School Teachers Re-
tirement Act to allow teachers to
take a leave of absence for two
years to engage in war work without
jeopardizing their continuity of

However, the commission will

enues and gross and net figures, IN

mission OF any financial figures
on the grounds they were imma-
terial. Counsel also requested As

Mattingly took no action on the
second request.
Called as a rebuttal witness,
James F. Dickson, a Government
transportation analyst, submitted a
study he had made OF the Capital
Transit Co.'S Pentagon line, indi-
eating the concern was making a
profit Of about LAB cents on each
passenger carried to the Federal
building.
Estimates Unit Fare Cost.
The witness claimed his study
showed the cost passenger for each
one-way trip was 3.572 cents. In
| addition, he said the cost from the
Pentagon to each employees home,
assuming the worker used addi-
tional company facilities within the
city, was 706 cents. The fare to
the Pentagon ON the Capital Transit
shuttle service is S cents. District

Mr.. Dickson is director Of the

ing seven months OF this year at q

Earlier in the day Col E. M. Bar
ron, chief counsel representing the
War and Navy Departments, agreed
to stipulate, at the insistence of
opposing counsel, that results OF

and Air Forces Annex employees
showed only a small percentage
complaining of excessive bus fares.
Col. Barron stressed, however,
that the question of fares was not
raised in the questionnaires sent to
employees, and that record already

ciated the idea of the Four Free
doms, not for Americans only but
for all the world.
I'm the future days which we seek
to make secure" he declared, "We
look forward to a world founded
upon four essential human free
doms. These freedoms include free,
dom of speech and expression every
where in the world. freedom to wor-
ship everywhere in the world. free
dom from want everywhere in the
world and freedom from fear any
where"
The President believes that the
four freedoms are basic to any
future program of world rehabilita-
ton. Without these freedoms, nei-
ther stability at home nor peace
abroad can be assured. Tyranny
and oppression and misery in one
country are prone to breed like con-
ditions in neighboring countries.
Peace cannot be confined to any
one state or to any groups of states.
1t must be indivisible and it must
apply to all countries, big and small
alike. President Roosevelt is acting
on the fundamental principle that,
nowadays, patriotism must be on a
global scale. And he is determined
to do his utmost to see to it that
the blessings of freedom and of
peace shall not be restricted to any
one particular area of the earth.
Precedents Are Recalled.
In this democratic policy Presi-
dent Roosevelt is following not only
