FWA Approves Funds
To Plan Non-FederaI
Postwar Projects

Advances totaling $15,600 for plan
ming an estimated $3.50, 900 of nom
Federal postwar public works in
the District and nearby Arlington
County were approved yesterday by
Baird Snyder, acting Federal Works
administrator.
The District is allotted $500 for
blueprinting four additional sedi-
mentation tanks and appurtenances
to be installed at the sewage treat
|ment plant at Blue Plains, having
100000 cubic feet of capacity. The
ultimate cost is estimated at $245, 900
Arlington County is allotted $500
for planning a 3O0-ton incinerator
to be built near the intersection of
Glebe road and Highway No. /, and
81 500 for planning a building to
serve as county maintenance shops
and equipment depot to be located
at the country property yard. The
estimated cost of the incinerator
plant is S275,000 and of the main
tenance shops and depot, 100000.
Arlington's need for an inciner-
ator plant is based partly on the
increase in the county's population
during the past 10 years from IS, 900
to about 125,000 and partly on the
fact the county collects refuse from
many of the large Federal buildings
there as well as from homes.
Maintenance shops are needed
because Arlington is one of only
three Virginia counties which build
and maintain their own highways.
The contemplated building, of cinder
block, brick and reinforced concrete
construction, will increase facilities
for caring for and repairing county,
owned equipment used in the main
tenance of streets and of the county
sewer and water systems.
MIR. Snyder also approved ad-
vances of ,$33, ,925 for non n-Federal
postwar works in more distant
points in Maryland and West vir-
ginia. for planning an estimated
81, ,235. 700 worth of projects. They
are located in Richmond, Va; North
east Maryland and Parkersburg,
w. Va.
The funds will all be made avail
able through the Bureau of Com
munity Facilities, FWA.

Two Groups Oppose
Hospital Reports
On Paralysis Cases

The Health Departments effort
to become the only source of in
formation on the number of in
fantile paralysis cases in the Dis
trict won the backing of two Dis
trict Medical Society groups today
as cases in the Metropolitan Area
rose to %.
Health Officer George C. Rutland,
in a letter to the District Medical
Society on July IL, had asked that
the hospitals not report directly to
the press on known or suspected
cases of the disease.
DR.. Rutland pointed out that the
law required reporting to the de-
partment so its bureau of epidemi-
ology could investigate.
Agree With Health Agency.
Theodore Wiprud, secretary of
the District Medical Society, wrote
DR.. Rutland today that the society's
Committee on Public Health and
Subcommittee on Child Welfare
agreed with the Health Depart
ments position.
Mr.. Wiprud wrote to say the
committees agreed "on the point
that all information with regard
to known or suspected cases of polio
should be made public through the
Health Department and not through
individual hospitals.
Certainly your department should
have an opportunity to make an
investigation of the cases reported
before the facts are released to the
public. At least that is the view
of the ehairmen of the above COM
mittees."
New Cases Reported.
The number of infantile paralysis
cases in the Metropolitan Area rose
to % as Children's Hospital con-
tinued to receive cases from both
washington and nearby counties.
The latest case reported today
was 2-year-old girl from Airing
ton County who was taken to WAL
ter Reed Hospital yesterday, accord
ing to the county health depart
ment. She later was returned to
her home.
Children's Hospital has received
two new cases. including 10-year-
old girl from Olney, Md, the eighth
reported so far from Montgomery
County, and an 11-year-old boy
| from Kentucky avenue Sc.

Nozis Turn to Thoughts
OF Eventual Defeat

March 24-"I brought II Duce
report by Luciolli on Germany.
He explains how politics was unable
to assist the military conquest. Ihey
talked much about new order, but
did nothing to bring it into being
The whole of Europe languishes un-
der German occupation.
'Luciolli mentions the fact that
in Germany they now think OF
eventual defeat. For this reason
they want all the countries OF the
continent exhausted, so that even
in defeat the Germans will be rel
atively stronger. II Duce was struck
by the idea, and said that by the END
of l943 he intends to have Is diVi-

Workers Jam
Capital Transit
Pentdgon Buses
Other Virginia Lines
Report Big Drop
In Passengers

Workers travelling to the Pentagon
and other nearby Virginia destina-
tions packed Capital Transit Co.
buses yesterday and today in order
to save an extra fare, while at least
one Virginia bus line noted sub
stantial decrease in its passenger
load on buses making the same
trips.
The new fare arrangement, ordered
by the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion in January, 1914, and upheld
by the Supreme Court May %, pro-
vides that riders may transfer, or
use their passes, to buses going to
the Pentagon, the Arlington Navy
Annex Building, the Army Air Forces
Annex at Gravelly Point, the Ma
tional Airport and intermediate
points without additional charge.
The order went into effect Sunday.
This morning long lines of work.
ers stood in the rain at Nineteenth
street and Virginia avenue NV.
seeking to take advantage of the
new fare system by taking Capt.
tai Transit buses to the Pentagon.
Long Line at 8 AM.
At a few minutes after am.
today the line of persons waiting
for the buses, two abreast, stretched
along Nineteenth street to c street,
along c street to Virginia avenue
and back on Virginia avenue toward
Nineteenth street.
Though some persons waiting in
line said the loading of buses earlier
was slow, the starter was moving
the lines along at a steady pace
into waiting buses by 8 am. The
crowd was orderly and, with few
exceptions, took the situation il
stride.
Samuel Emmons, Capital Transit's
transportation manager, said per-
sons waiting yesterday were about
10 per cent more than normal and
estimated that today's crowd was
in about the same proportion.
If District riders take the Virginia
buslines, it will cost them an addi-
tional fare. This will vary in, amount
from penny and fraction up to
5 cents, depending on what combi-
nation of ticket purchase is made.
No additional fare is needed to ride
Capital Transit buses.
The new fare system enables riders
to buy interline tickets in books OF
IL one-way rides. They cest $1.60.
The tickets are good on Capital
Transit Co. streetcars and buses and
on the following Virginia lines:
Alexandria, Bancroft & Washington
Transportation Co., the Arlington &
Fairfax Motor Transportation Co.
and the Washington, Virginia &
Maryland Coach Co. (Arnold Lines i.
The tickets are not interchangeable
on the Virginia lines
| Riders may also purchase three
tickets for Is cents to Virginia des-
tinations on Virginia lines.
Mr.. Emmons also said the Capital
Transit Co. only can run its usual
number of buses. He said additional
buses cannot be put on to take care
of any extra riders. pointing out
that between the Capital Transit
and Virginia company buses there
/ is ample transportation" He said
the fare differential apparently has
thrown large portion of the traffic
onto the local company as riders
seek to save the extra money
charged on the Virginia lines.
] Virginia line bus officials said to-
day it was too early to tell what the
final effect of the new fare arrange
ment will be.

Sal Patents in Two DAYS

A total of SAL patents have been
withheld from issue in the two days
the Patent Office has been officially

Since no patents can be issued
without the signature of the patent
commissioner, the Patent Office has
been forced to notify inventors of
the delay in issuing their patents.
The situation stems from the res

then, and was discarded. Now they
