Police Station Clerks
Collateral Standards
.Urqed al Conference

Judges of the Municipal Court
should set a minimum and maxi
mum collateral to be collected by
police station clerks and not leave
it to the judgment of the police,
the Traffic Court Conference Com
mittee believes.
A subcommittee was named at
meeting of the group yesterday
to confer with the judges on
whether such a system can be
worked out.
The subject came up after a
letter was read from Chief Judge
Barse of the Municipal Court, IN
which he said only a minimum
collateral list has been supplied
to police stations. The judge said
it is within the discretion of the
police to raise the amount, de-
pending on the seriousness of the
law infraction or the record of
the offender.
The conference. which is COM
posed of lawyers, debated whether
the station clerk could decide on
the amount Of collateral above
the minimum. Assistant Corpora

The groups subcommittee on

of adjusting traffic tickets and

New DDT Spray Technique
BEING Tried by Air Force

The Air Force is experimenting
with spraying of DOT solution via
propeller-d driven bombs which can
be mounted or dismounted from
an airplane in as little as five
minutes.
The propeller blades are per-
forated with tiny holes through
which the solution is sprayed
During a recent demonstration a
liaison plane, flying at 80 miles an
hour at an altitude of Is feet
sprayed a strip of land $50 feet
wide and eight miles long in six
minutes from two 25-gallon
bombs, an announcement said last
night.
Members of the Agriculture De-
partment's Bureau of Entomology
and Plant Quarantine watched
the demonstration by the Air
Force Medical Service at Beltsville
Md. The two services are evaluat-
ing the biological effectiveness of
the new method.
Previously. it was necessary to
install a tank in the fuselage of
an airplane and the DDT was
then sprayed through pipe at the
bottom. The time necessary to in
stall and remove such tank
usually limited the aircraft to
DOT work only. The new type
bombs or tanks on the wings
makes it possible for such a plane
to spray the solution and then be
reconverted for its usual recon-
naissance. artillery spotting and
rescue missions.

In 1915 he wrote and published
one of the first pro-Ally books to
appear in this country. Germany

he was being denounced as a Ger
man sympathizer because of his
opposition to the entry of the
United States into the conflict.
His pacifist policies at a time
when the war fever was abroad in

to become so unpopular that Mr..
Willard was compelled to sell it a
short time after he became ma
jority owner, in 1918.
Thereafter he devoted his ener-
gies to building up The Nation,
which at first had been little more
than a weekly edition of the Eve
ming Post. In 1882 he turned over
control of the magazine to four
associates, but continued as a
contributing editor.
Mr.. Willard was born March 13.
1872. in Wiesbaden. Germany,
where his parents temporarily re-
sided. After being graduated from
Harvard University at the age OF
81, he remained at Cambridge for
three years, taking his MA. de-
gree and teaching history.
Mr.. Willard was one of the first
editors to espouse prominently the
