Police orders. he said, will be
changed to require reporting of all
crimes, including simple assaults
and larcenies under $25.
Previously, he said, these cases
were handled by the man on the
beat"-uniformed men in the pre-
cincts. Hereafter, all such investi-
cations will be made by head
quarters or precinct detectives.
Maj. Barrett explained that set
ting up a Central Complaint Room
will be the first step in the series
OF changes to be made in depart
ment procedure, as soon as he has
the Commissioners approval.
That will mean bringing in the
radio dispatchers from the Tenth
Precinct, where the radio room Is
now located, training station clerks
to handle the new method Of
recording crimes, promoting su-
pervisory personnel for the COM
plant room and transferring men
from other squads to the new GEN.
tralized set-up.
Plans Revision Of Index.
Maj. Barrett explained that he
had the funds for the temporary
promotion of five men to supervise
the Central Complaint Room but
he will need a Congressional ap-
preparation to make the promotions
permanent.
AS the second step in the proposed
new system, Maj. Barrett said, the
entire index system of the names
of offenders will have to be changed.
Previously, every offense against a
man had been carried on a separate
card in the revised system the mans
entire record will appear on one
card.
To revise the index, Maj. Barrett
said, will require many months. He
disclosed that he will ask the Com
missioners for Is temporary en-
ployes to complete this work.

Mr.. Madden claimed that the law

Mr.. Lewis block of council action.
Will Be Convention Issue.
A high AFL officer said the affi-
davit issue would be carried to the
floor of the ALL convention to be
held next month in San Francisco.
He predicted that Mr.. Lewis would
be "repudiated" by a wide margin.
Just what that would accomplish
was doubtful since as long as the
Denham ruling stands and Mr..
Lewis holds to his position, the
whole AFL will be outside the pale
of the new labor law and the NLRB.
Another federation officer said he
did not think Mr.. Lewis ever would
change his position.
"He is out to fight this new law
to the finish, and he says he is
going to fight all of it," he said
Mr.. Green said the ALL had no
plan to appeal to Mr.. Denham for a
change of his ruling that all AFL
officers must sign the Communist
affidavits if any union is to be rec
ognized by the NLRB. However,
the ruling could be changed by court
decision, although it would take
time to get a test.
There was some thought there,
also, that the members of the NLRB
could reverse their general counsel If
the question came to them on ap-
peal from Denham ruling refusing
a noncomplying union place on a
shop bargaining representative bal
lot.
The Executive Council announced
the resignation of Felix H. Knight,
former president Of the Brotherhood
of Railway Carmen, from the coun-
Gil and the AFL vice presidency.
The place was given to Herman
Winter of Chicago, head of the
Bakery and Confectionery Workers
Union.
The council was to end its session
today with a third attempt in two
years to settle the Hollywood craft
union dispute. However, 1t was re-
ported at late hour that several
heads of motion picture studios and
Hollywood union officials would not
appear for the meeting,

CALf fEEDiNC fXrEkiMEN I AT EXPERIMENT. fAkM

The Exp CT inent Farm is looking for about Is calves to use in a feeding experiment which they are carrying out on four dif- ferent kinds of feed. The object of this experiment. is to find the cheapest type of feed that will raise the be st type of an imal. The plan or diet planned will att empt to raise the calves on the least amount of milk.
 It is hoped that through this exp eri1nent a feeding program can be worked out that will make it cheaper for the farmers in the Valley to raise their heifer calves. This will tie in with the new Art fife ia1 Breeding Program adopted by the Valley Dairynen and should be of great value to them.
 The Experiment is under the dir ection Of Ml,. Arlo Martin, An final Hsbandnan at the Expe riment Farm.

BANK WTTHDRAWS OFFENSIVE AID

The NAACP has affected the withdrawal of an advertisement with a caricature of a Negro, placed by the Bank of America in the New Yorker, it was re- vealed today by Madison Jones, administrative assistant.
 Jones stated in a letter to the Bank of America that the pie ture of the Negro wheel chair attendant was offensive and de- rogatory. Jones said, "It repre- sents a gross exaggeration and a stereotype which tends to rid icule the Negro. Jones re- quested that the advertisement be withdrawn from future cir culation and also asked for as- surance that the policy of the Bank of America is one which would be fair to all Americans. The Charles R. Stuart Adver- Using Company, which handles advertising for the bank, re- piled in a letter which said in part: May we say at the outset neither Bank of America nor this agency would ever inten- tionally include anything in its advertising which might be of fensive to any group ofpeople. We are therefore glad to com ply with your request. ''

NEGRO WEEKLY AIDS CATHOLIC COMMITTEE ON LEGISLATION STAND

New York-The Age, Negro weekly published here, has gone on record in support of the ac- tion taken last week by the State Catholic Welfare Com mittee in opposing passage of the Austin -Mahoney Bill now before the New York State Legislature.
 In it's statement the Catholic Committee maintained that the Austin Mahoney Bill, which purports to outlaw discrimina- tion in education, contains "pro- visions which infringe on the fundamental rights of parents and which are impossible of just enforcement. .
 By and large, the record of the Catholic Church in regard to the problem of discrimina tion against minority groups has been a good one, an edi- torial in The Age declares. ''Nor does it seem to be splitting hairs to point out that the Catholic Committee s statement express es opposition to the method of enforcement in the proposed law and not the law itself. '
 Noting that "sincere be- lievers in true democracy" agree that advancement in the struggle to eliminate prejudice should be steady and contin- uous'', the editorial emphasizes that such advancement must be solidly based''. '.No victory purchased at the expense of some other portion of their ib- eral philosophy is considered worth the cost, :" the article ayers.

HEALTH FOR ALL
 ALLERGIES

to express our dislike for cer- tain food, colors or even people. To medical men, "allergy' is a general term indicating var ious forms of hypersensitive- ness, in man and animals, to the various substances.
 You probably know someone who breaks out with hives af- ter eating strawberries, or who sneezes every time a cat walks into the room. You may know people who avoid eggs in any form because they would get sick if they ate them. The rest of us may be scornful of these "whims but it is a fact that some people are over sensitive to substances which to the ma jority are harmless.
 The irritant may be some thing in the air we breathe, such as dust or pollen. It may be something we touch, such as poison ivy or certain chemical substances. It may be some thing we eat, specific foods or drugs. Most ceases of asthma are caued by allergies, and also many are cured when doctor and patient cooperate to find the offending agent.
 How is a specific allergy dis covered? In much the same manner that the existence of al- lergies was first made known. Eighty years ago an English doctor who suffered from a very strange fever discovered that when he rubbed timothy grass pollen into cut in his hand a red, itching wheal appeared. When he applied the pollen to his nose he had severe attack of what we call hay fever. He concluded that he was hyper sensitive to pOIlenS.
 Today if a doctor suspects you are suffering from an aller- gy he makes skin tests to deter mine to which things you are sensitive. Since there are so many things to which you could be allergic, he first asks a series of questions. If he learn that you feel i'll every time you clean house, he makes a skin test of house dust or possibly with the dander of one of your house pets. If the skin tests show that you are hypersenitive to house dust, the doctor can reduce your sensitivity to it. He begins by injecting weak solution of an extract of house dust. He then gradually increases the strength of the injection until you be- come "desensitized," or are no longer allergic. The disensitiz- ing agent is called an allergen. It your allergy had been to something easier to avoid, and not too essential as, for intance, clam, the problem would be simpler. The doctor would ad- wise you not to eat clans.
 If the skin tests were infall- ible. allergies Would be les of A
