Senate Votes Members
81, 500 Expense Allowance

The senate late yesterday passed
the Legislative Appropriation bill
for the new fiscal year, giving each
senator the $4,000 a year expense
allowance which members of the
House have been getting for lS
months.
When the House inaugurated the
item originally to help it's members
meet the increased cost of living,
the senators decided not to include
themselves. This year. however,
the Senate Appropriations Commit
tee decided to apply the expense
item to both branches. and made the
Senate amendment retroactive to
January, 1916
1t is understood the Senate
Committee approved the item on
condition it would be dropped when
ever the basic pay of members of
Congress is increased The bill to
re-organize Congressional proceed
ure, which passed the Senate earlier
this week. would raise the basic sal
airy of Senators and Representa-
tives from $4,000 to $4,000 a year,
but there is no assurance the House
will complete action on that meas
ure in this session.
The Senate also wrote into the
Legislative Bill yesterday a new rule
to limit the number of kilograms
Senators may send monthly. The
rule allows varying numbers, &C
cording to the population of a Sen
ators State.

Mobile X-ray Machine
Hailed as Eradicator
OF tuberculosis

A mobile X-ray machine, which
its sponsors say could result in max
ing tuberculosis as rare as typhoid
fever in one generation If State and
local health agencies and tuberculo-
sis associations were to use it to the
fullest extent, has been presented to
the United States Public Health
Service by the General Electric
X-Ray Corp.
Presentation of the machine,
which is like a Red Gross clubmobile
but contains equipment to make
miniature X-rays instead of coffee
and doughnuts, was made yesterday
at ceremonies at the Mayfiower
Hotel.
With such equipment, anti-tuber-
culosis forces could probe the most
backward rural sections of the coun-
try until all of the country's 100000
900 people had been examined for
the disease.
Previous Equipment Fixed"
In addressing public health nota-
hles present at the ceremony, DR..
Arthur c. Christie, nationally known
radiologist, said that until recently
the only available method of dis
covering tubercular infection was by
use of fixed equipment using IA by
II inch film.
Surgeon General Thomas Parran
of the Public Health Service said in
accepting the unit:
For the first time in history, a
chest X-ray for every adult in the
Nation Is practical goal"
Once discovered, DR.. Christie
said, tubercular infection can be con-
trolled by controlling those infected
so that they do not infect others. In
this way full use of the machine
could stamp out in single genera
ton the disease which has plagued
mankind since memory.
