ghl6dn Charges
u. s. Is Stripped
Of Oil for Allies
BY DAVID CAMELoN

WASHINGTON, Sept. 30-A
group of midwestern congressman
today called for investigation OF
charges that America is being
stripped of her oil reserves. es-
sential to the military defense OF
the nation in the future.
The group, headed by Rep.
Brown (R) of Ohio, heard charges
that America is contributing a
heavily disproportionate share of
oil TO the United Nations war ma
chine, while foreign oil reserves
are being conserved; and that
bureaucratic bungling is disrupt
ing and killing off the domestic
oil production at a time when II
is desperately needed.
U. S. RESERVES VANISHING
The congressman called for the
use of oil from Venezuela, Colom-
bia and Mexico, as well as from
Iraq and Persia, to conserve
Americas vanishing reserves.
The congressman met to discuss
gasoline rationing in the middle
west, but the more critical ques-
ton occupied most of their at
tention. They adopted an informal
resolution, calling upon the special
petroleum committee Of the House
| Interstate and foreign commerce
committee to extend its inveSti-
cation of the petroleum situation
TO include reserves. production and
observation-disclosures and domestic
as well as consumption, price
and rationing.
QUOTES PRENTISS BROWN
Rep. Brown cited a statement
by Prentiss M. Brown in which
, he said the OPA administrator
claimed:
. Increased American produc-
ton was not needed at this
time.
The United States could get
all the oil it needed from Vene-
zuela, Colombia and Mexico.
Transportation from those
countries to the war fronts was
no more difficult than transpor-
tation from the United States.
Sufficient development Of
those sources might even allevi-
ate the need for rationing in
the United States.
Meanwhile, Rep. Brown said,
| the OPA already has drafted an
order reducing the value of an
A card in the Midwest to two
gallons. The order may be an
nounced, he said, within a few
days when October quotas are
made public.

0ratory in Speech
To Jury Draws Protest
Capital Transit Lawyer
Wins Case, However

Noting that occasionally even the
most experienced lawyers in the ex-
citement of trials are carried away
by their own oratorv, the Municipal
Court of Appeals yesterday sustained
a lower courts verdict in favor of
the Capital Transit Co., which had
been sued by the parents of a child
injured in an auto and streetcar ac-
cldent.
The plaintiffs, Sylvia and Norman
Meyer, objected to the remarks of
counsel for the transit company in
his argument to the jury when he
said:
"We, the Capital Transit Co., do
not want to cause injury to any one
Accidents are unavoidable. Do you
members of the jury, for one mo-
ment think we would be here today
If the Capital Transit Co. thought
there was any liability in the case?'
The appellate courts opinion said
that although the remarks "unmis-
takably tended to convey the i'm
preston that the transit company
settles those claims against it in
which 1t thinks there is liability
the remarks did not create sufficient
prejudice in the minds of the jurors
to warrant new trial.
The opinion, written by Judge
Andrew Hood, said:
IF every remark made by counsel
outside of the testimony were ground
for a reversal, comparatively few
verdicts would stand, since in the
ardor of advocacy and in the ex-
citement of trial, even the most ex-
perienced counsel are occasionally
carried away by this temptation"

continue his research and writings
A noted entomologist, DR.. Parker
several years ago was selected by the
department of entomology of the
British Museum to undertake an
investigation of the history of the
BembeCine WaSpS. Various types
of this insect were sent to him from
Borneo, Cuba, Haiti, Virgin Islands
and from American agricultural ex-
pertinent stations for identification
More recently he has turned his
scientific attention to critical
study of bony fishes. The reproduc-
tive system of the brown trout is
treated in scientific paper shortly
to be published to follow the obser-
vationS he made late last year on
yellow perch.
Coming to the Catholic University
IN 1910 as an instructor in biology,
DR.. Parker was advanced to the rank
of associate professor, and then full
professor and in 1918 was made head
of the department of biology. He
took graduate work at Ohio State
University from 1906 to 1903 and
then served as assistant entomolo-
gist of the Kansas State Agricultural
College and Experiment Station
prior to coming to Catholic Uni
versity
His writings have been published
IN number of scientific journals
and by the United States National
Museum as responsible documents
on the subjects treated. A fellow of
the American Society for the Ad-
vancement of Science, DR.. Parker is
member of the Sigma XII Frater-
nifty and the national and District
chronological societies.

Wilson Students 10 Gel
Semester Of Full Time
Teaching Practice
NewIy-Adopted Plan
Provides Instruction
Of Two Glasses q Day

Wilson Teachers College students
preparing to teach in junior high
schools will hereafter have a full
semester of full time student teach
ing before graduation, according to
plan which has just been adopted
by the college faculty. The plan
has also been approved by the
Junior high school principals of the
District.
The plan was developed by a
city-wide committee, including H.
P. Stafford. principal of Macfarland
Junior High School, chairman:
Mrs. M. R. Merritt, principal of
Taft Junior High; DR.. G. M. Raw
Inns, jr., head of the Department
Of Science of the District schools,
and DR.. c. M. Huber, professor of
mathematics, and assistant to the
president of Wilson College.
Each student will spend the last
week or two this spring in the
same Junior high school where he
will be doing practice teaching next
fall. He will work under the direc-
ton of a cooperating teacher to
acquaint himself with the work he
will be expected to do next year
When school opens in the fall the
students will report at once to the
junior high school to which they
have been assigned. For several
weeks they will merely observe and
assist the cooperating teachers.
Gradually they will take over in
creased responsibilities for teaching
until finally each student teacher is
tnstructing two classes every day.
In the past each student has
taught one class each day through
out the entire year. At the same
time he has carried a considerable
load of study and course work at
the college. BY devoting full time
for one semester to practice teach
ing, each student will have an op-
portunity to take charge of a home
room, some of the extra -curricular
activities, assembly programs and
pupil records.
The students will be brought into
the whole program of the junior
high school. They will even attend
faculty meetings. Thus student
teachers can become so familiar
with the workings of the junior high
school that they can be expected
to assume quickly the responsibili-
ties of a full-time teacher after
their graduation and appointment,
said Mr.. Stafford.
Steps are being taken to get the
new plan under way at once, DR..
Walter E. Hager, president of Will
son Teachers College, declared. He
went on to say that undoubtedly
some exceptions will have to be
made during the first year or two
of its operation. Students who can
not adjust their programs to the
new plan will be permitted to con-
tinue and graduate under the old
arrangement.

the latest answers to questions of

ready to assist parents in their
problems.

and "Tenant-Landlord Problems" !"
Miss Mary K. Wheeler of the Wash
Ington Housing Association.
Parents eagerly joined in a dis
cussion of their problems. Con-
cerned over problems of juvenile de-
hnquency, many parents heard Mr..
Everett say that in wartime the
bulk of sexual training and educa-
ton should come from parents.
Two Sources of Learning.
Don't fool yourselves" he told
the parents, into believing that
such topics can be left untouched.
The children will learn their sex
knowledge the bad way unless
parents step in first.
1T remains contest to see who
will do the job-the parents, on the
one hand, or the gutter, on the
other"
Each parent present received a
42-page pamphlet entitled Health
on the Home Front" Complied by
the Health Institute, the pamphlet
includes chapters on topics discussed
during the sessions and lists health
clinics throughout the city.
