Health Department
To Control Sanitation
In Food Warehouses

Food storage warehouses in the
District soon will be brought under
Health Department control to in
crease public protection against
purchase of unwholesome food, 1t
was learned today.
The department has been directed
by the District Commissioners to
draft regulations requiring such
warehouses to be licensed for a
yearly fee of $50 to cover the cost
of monthly inspections.
Action Follows Approval.
The action followed approval of
the proposal by the District License
Committee headed by Assistant
Corporation Counsel John ODea
An estimated go Establishments will
be affected
The proposal is the outgrowth
of a drive for better sanitation in
the handling of food begun last fall
after some 40 persons were poisoned
by cream pies made at a District
bakery. The drive was ordered by
Commissioner Guy Mason who
called on the Health Department
Ito clean up" the city.
Under present regulations, per-
sons storing food in warehouses
nave to be licensed, but the operator
of the warehouse does not. The
Health Department sanitary in
spectors declared this was insuffic-
met control, since the operator could
permit the establishment to get into
such shape that insects and rodents
would have access to the food. In
such cases, the inspector said, the
licensed food handlers had no way
Of compelling correction.
To Place Responsibility.
Purpose of the new rules will be
to pin on the warehouse operator
responsibility for the sanitary con-
dition of his building.
+ In its report, the License Com
mittee pointed out that such ware
houses were in existence in 1882
when the District Licensing Act was
passed. In failing to specify that
they be licensed, the report con-
tinued, Congress could have re-
served the power to license them to
itself"
However" the report added, I'VE
do not think there was any such
reservation"

in the local Red Gross campaign
was to be made today following SUBJ
mission of initial canvass results by

in the United States Chamber OF
Commerce Building yesterday.
Secretary of the Navy Forrestal is
chairman of the Government Unit
A total of $66,555, or 4.3 per cent
of the $1,573. 400 goal, was reported
at yesterdays luncheon, at which
Vice Admiral William H. P. Blandy
task force commander for the forth
coming Pacific atomic bomb tests,
and Maj. Gen. Leslie R. Groves,
chief of the Army's atomic bomb
project, were guests of honor.
Hard to rig" Tests.
Admiral Blandy, deputy chief of
naval operations in charge of spe-
cial weapons, said joint planning of
Army, Navy and civilian experts
under direction of the Joint Chiefs
of Staff make it most unlikely the
Navy will be able to rig the tests for
propaganda purposes"
He added he felt it improbable
amy one will be able to say we need
no Navy in this atomic world"
1--WE will certainly applaud any
practical steps for the abolishment
of atomic bombs, or, for that matter
the abolishment of wars, he COM
mented.
Use of Animals Protested,
He said his fan mail" has been
increasing constantly and had in
cluded complaints against the use of
animals in the tests. Rats, goats
and pigs will be placed in the target
area because it is essential medical
men observe their reactions in at
tempting to devise protection and
treatment for personnel in a possible
future atomic war, he explained.
Operation Crossroads (the tests
will help up to keep strong Ameri-
ca as a power for peace" Admiral
Blandy declared.
A similar appraisal of the demon
stration was given by Gen. Groves
He said he thought an honest effort
toward permanent peace was in
progress.
Gen. Groves praised Red Cross
services to servicemen, particularly
in reporting on illnesses and other
problems at home.
Il have never in my service seen
signs of waste or extravaganza on
the part of the Red Cross" he said.

Day Care Provided
For $50 Children in
Churches and Homes

Makeshift centers in churches anC
homes today cared for about $50 Of
the $50 youngsters locked out of Il
school nurseries for the second day
but mothers of the other 200 lost
pay staying home from work tt
watch them, Mrs Mary Hunt, leader
of the parents group, announced.
The worst angle Of the wait fol-
the Commissioners to approve a
proposal that a corporation OF
mothers take over the IA centers
Mrs. Hunt said, is the uncertainty
OF the volunteer accommodations
from day to day. She could not
promise the mothers that any of the
four churches offering space today
would be able to do it tomorrow
Mrs. Hunt said.
A Commissioners spokesman said
the city heads possibly" may con-
slider the mothers plan Thursday
Meanwhile, Chairman Mcmillan OF
the House District Committee has
promised to work on getting the
centers included in the District
budget July /.
Contributions Asked.
Teams of mothers asked public
contributions today toward a goal
of sac, 1000 the parents need to oper-
ate the centers through June 80. So
far, gifts of only $1,1O0 have been
announced. The Rev. Francis w.
McPeek, chairman of the drive, said
he might have some figures to an
nounce later this week.
OF the $4,000 in fees with which
the mothers planned to supplement
the public contributions, about
$4,000 has been paid, Mrs Hunt said

National Bank early today with

ters' Funds" and Harry S. Wender
attorney for the group.
The two main problems at the
makeshift centers were food and
maps. Children slept on the floor at
the Shiloh Baptist Church, 15O(
Ninth street NV. Mothers of chill
dren temporarily housed at the
Metropolitan Baptist Church, Sixth
and A streets NE, took some of the
youngsters in relays to nearby
homes for maps and then brought
them back, Mrs. Hunt said.
Sleep on Benches.
Children slept on benches at the
All Souls Unitarian Church, Six.
teenth and Harvard streets NV
Eight youngsters mapped on coats
piled on tops of tables at the Lewis
Methodist Church, Fourth and
Hamilton streets NV.
For food, youngsters at the All
Souls Unitarian and Metropolitan
Baptist Churches were taken to
nearby restaurants. The Shiloh
Church was able to provide cooking
facilities, while children at the
Lewis Methodist Church received
food prepared and brought in by
several of the mothers.

COLUMBUS, Ca, Nov. 16-W.p
Georgia clinched the almost
certain sugar bowl bid today,
whipping Auburn, 40, to remain
one of the last unbeaten, united
gridiron powers of the nation.
The big red team, led by half
back Charlie Trippi, pounded
through Auburn almost at will for
a 30 advantage at halftime.
Thereafter the second-stringers
held off Travis Tidwell and COM
pany and scored two more touch
downs in the closing minutes Of
play. About $4,000 fans saw the
worst beating in history Of the
two schools which began football
relations in 1892.

That honor went to Auburn's
slender freshman halfback. It'd
well.
The 175-pounder from Birming-
ham, Ala. was the striking power
and the defensive bulwark Of the
Auburn team. After the game, his

"Trippi didn't show up Tidwell,
even though Georgia won the
game. Tippi had more help, that's

him as "a truly great back"
He complained his own team was
