Anti-RabiesC Campaign
Calls for Quarantine
OF All Dogs in Area

A three point rabies control pro-
gram calling for establishment of a
rigid quarantine on all dogs in the
Washington Metropolitan Area was
recommended yesterday at a con-
ference of health. medical and vet
Urinary officials from the District
and nearby Maryland and Vir-
ginia. The meeting was held in the
Municipal Building.
Declaring that rabies outbreaks
will continue to plague" the WASH
ington area for several years unless
stringent action is taken, the group
urged that all stray dogs be picked
up and destroyed unless called for
by their owners within a set period
In addition, it was recommended
that all dogs which have been in
contact with rabid animals be de-
stroyed or kept under observation
for six months by the health officer
of the particular area.
81 Destroyed Since April.
Revealing that 81 rabid dogs have
been destroyed since April, Health
Department officials said the dog
which attacked Mrs. Estelle Kirby.
So, Of 1884 Twenty-eighth street
NV, near the Shoreham Hotel,
Tuesday was rabid. The animal
already had infected a number of
dogs in the area between Wisconsin
and Connecticut avenues before he
was captured, they said.
I'VE have learned that the dog
made a tour around the city cover
ing 10 miles just before he bit the
woman near the Shoreham," Dr..
james G. Cumming, chief of the
Bureau Of Communicable Diseases,
declared. "We know that this dog
bit at least three dogs on his trip,
and it is likely he bit a lot more
dogs. We know at least 60 to 80 per
cent of these will develop rabies if
they are not treated"
Mrs. Kirby was bitten severely on
both legs and knocked to the ground
by the dog. She was rescued by
Mrs. Robert D. Conrad, wife of
Comdr. Conrad, U. S. N, of 280O
Woodley road NV.
Some Quarantines in Effect.
Dog quarantines are now in effect
in the metropolitan areas of Prince
Georges and Montgomery counties
and in sections of Arlington County.
Prince Georges County police have
been authorized to shoot all dogs
seen at large.

Planners Asked to Chonqe
18th and 18th Street Names
Ex-Chormon DeIono Points to Confusion
With Avenues South of K Street NV.

street has been renamed and the
present proposal seems to pose a
question.
Mr. West said the District Com
missioners can name or rename
streets outside the city proper on
their own authority. To change the
name of any street or avenue in the
city is matter entirely for Con-
greSS.
Sixteenth Street Recalled.
officials also recalled the furore
caused some years ago when Six
teenth street was renamed the Ave-
hue of the Presidents at the insti-
cation of the late Mrs John B. Hen
derson People persisted in clinging
to the old name and eventually Con-
gress restored it to Sixteenth street.
With respect to the new housing
facilities for WAVES. officials said
the number to be accommodated
could not be divulged now. The size
of the proposed project. however,
would place the number around 900
or more.
With the acquisition of SO addi-
tional areas totaling 3l3 acres in
widely scattered sections of the city,
the planning officials reported today
that Washington is rapidly catching
up on its public recreational pro-
gram
Some Areas Developed.
Thirty-seven of these areas. &C
counting for 228 acres, have been
partially developed and are now
being used for supervised play, the
commission was informed
The remaining % areas, compris-
ing IS acres. are undeveloped and
located in outlying sections. Sew
eral of these sites, such as the play
ground intended for Mclean Gar
dens. have been taken over by the
Army. Navy and Public Building
Administration. +
John Nolen, jr., director of plan
ming, and Thomas c. Jeffers. land
scape architect, reported on the
progress of the recreational program
which met with the satisfaction OF
the commission.
Bridge Problem Delayed.

in designs for the relocation of the
Highway Bridge over the Potomac
River was postponed again until the
next meeting, which will be held

BY NELSON NJ. SHEPARD.

A ticklish proposal to change the
names of Seventeenth and Fifteenth
streets, south of K street NV. to
Connecticut and Vermont avenues
respectively, was dropped today into
the lap of the National Capital Park
and Planning Commission.
The suggestion came from Fred
eric A. Delano. former chairman
in connection with the opening OF
the monthly planning session at
which a program also was submitted
to build additional dormitories for
WAVES on seven acres of the old
polo grounds in West Potomac Park
When staff officials of the Plan
ming Commission told about the pro-
posal to rename the two streets
which are in effect a continuation
of the avenues. they were in doubt
yesterday in whose hands the
authority is lodged Vernon E. West
principal assistant corporation coun-
sci, referred to the statute book and
said it would require an act of Con-
gress to rename the streets.
Adverse Report Possible.
Regardless of the authority. how
ever, the problem may lead to an
adverse recommendation from the
Planning Commission. Officials said
that Mr.. Delano is entirely right
in stating that Seventeenth street
is actually continuation of Con-
necticut avenue for all traffic pur-
poses. Connecticut avenue stops at
Farragut Square and K street and
Seventeenth street switches over q
block westward where the avenue
should extend.
The same complications exist with
respect to Fifteenth street and Yer
mont avenue at Mcpherson Square
leading to confusion of vehicle oper-
ators who are unfamiliar with con-
ditions.
The Planning Commission, how
ever, is a srickler for precedent. All
thoroughfares running diagonally
through the city are named fo1
States. The north and south streets
are numbered and the east and west
streets are lettered. That is as it
should be, officials said.
A precedent was established when
Constitution and independence ave-
nues were constructed to extend
east and west. But officials pointed
out they were not named for States
and are the only two examples OF
their kind In the city. No numbered

URGE PRESIDENT
TO USE POWERS
AS Commander lin Chief
Official Orders Would
End Dissemination

At a meeting of the Waterbury
branch of the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored
People, Mrs. Lucille Mcintosh de-
clared in her report on wartime con-
ditions affecting colored people at
last nights meeting that a resolu-
ton demanding an end to segrega-
ton and discrimination against
Negroes in the armed services was
adopted at the recent assembly OF
the NAACP held in Detroit. More
than SO people were present at the
meeting which took place at the
Pearl St. Neighborhood House.
Mrs. Mcintosh added that the
conference requested the president
as commander in-chief to exert his
powers now to END this discrimina-
ton, or the "colored people all over
the world will justly consider the
four freedoms as hypocrisy" The
speaker said that it was pointed out
that the Marines and Coast Guards
do not have any colored commits
stoned officers, that Negro women
are not admitted to the WAVES, and
Negroes are not admitted in required
numbers to the air forces
Other items brought up at the
conference, Mrs. Mcintosh reported
concerned manpower, treatment OF
the Negro in the press, radio and
motion pictures, securing democracy
at home and the church as force
for democratic rights. DR.. James

branch, presided over the meeting

RESTRICTIONS ON
FLORISTS |EASED'
Two Retail Deliveries
Weekly to Hospitals Al
lowed Certain Groups

Florists who reduce the milage of
their retail delivery trucks to 80 per
cent of that operated during the
corresponding calendar months of
1941 have had certain restrictions
on retail deliveries eased by the
Office of Defense Transportation,
John F.. Maerz, Hartford district
ODT manager. John w. Adelung,
New Haven district ODT manager
announced today.
For florists who make the mileage
out, retail package size and weight
delivery restrictions have been eased
to a minimum of three pounds or
AZ inches in combined length and
girth instead of the five pounds ard
60 inches minimum now in effect
for most other commodities.
The new order also allows these
florists to make two retail deliveries
per week, provided the destination
is hospital. Previously they were
limited to one delivery a week from
one point of origin to one point of
destination.

Northumberland Gives
State Officials Worries
Recreational Hazards Officially Recognized as Dan
gerous Possibilities; General Public Cautioned

The Fourth of July is again APP
preaching and this year it holds,
for the people of our great coun-
try, a significance so strong that
even the most unimportant one of
us cannot help but be moved by
its meaning. 1t was on the fourth
day of July in 1776 that this nation
declared its independence and it
is on this fourth day of July, 1943
that we continue the fight for that
independence so dearly won. 1t is
times such as these that make us
realize how important it is to be a
free people.
Many years ago members of our
nation began to celebrate this free
dom and accordingly, on the Fourth
of July fireworks became a known
and accepted means of expressing
the peoples joy. But as so often
happens, an expression of emotion
is often accompanied by danger.
Now, until the people of our great
country learn to live, work and play
safely, our program for safety on
the home front can never b etotally
effective. Therefore, it becomes
the duty of each and everyone of
us to weave web of safety around
our home so that the home pro-
gram becomes the primary unit in
a general community safety pro-
gram.
RecreatiOnal Hazards
Fireworks were at one time a big
hazard on the Fourth of July. To-
day, that hazard is not so great, as
laws and ordinances forbid their
use in many places. Now, other
ways are substituted to celebrate
this important day, such as sports,
picnics, parades, concerts, SWIM
ming at the beach or lake, boating,
camping, plus the many home &C
tivities. Yet each method of re-
creation produces a hazard and it is
up to you to eliminate as far as
possible that hazard which is pro-
duced. If you are using fireworks,
which during this period of war may
be banned, there is the danger of
powder burns and the accompany
ing introduction of tetanus spores
into the skin with the eventual de-
velopment of tetanus Cor lockjaw).
Fortunately, we have preventive
