Lets get the show on the road"
is more than a slang expression
at the Medical Illustration Service
of the Armed Forces Institute of
Pathology.
The service sends more than $50
scientific exhibits all over the
country and to many foreign cities
every year. All the displays are
built in the services crowded
workshops on the first floor of the
Medical Museum, Seventh street
and independence avenue S.W.
Every exhibit is accompanied by
at least one member of the staff.
One crew is in Mexico now. An
other recently returned from Ha-
waii.
At least Is different skills are
represented in the 90-man staff of
the service. Some are members of
the armed forces, with representa-
tives Of the Army, Air Force and
Navy working together.
Films and Lectures.
In addition to the exhibits,
which are sent to important medi-
cal meetings, Army and Air Force
training schools and to other edu-
cational institutions, the service
supplies films. slides and lecture
material for teaching purposes.
There are more than l million
medical photographs and drawings
in q collection started in 1869.
Principal customers of the serv-
ice are the medical services of the
Army and Air Force, the National
Research Council and the Insti-
tute Of Pathology. But exhibits
are sent anywhere, if the Army
surgeon general and the institute
director, Brig. Gen. Ebert De
Coursey, think the cause of medi-
cal science would be advanced.
Many of the exhibits are, built

It may also turn up a decision on
who will mastermind COP. stra-
tegy on the floor.
Senator Robert Kimble, of Al
llegany County, veteran leader of
the Senate minority, weeks ago
offered to step down If Gov. Nc
Keldin so decreed because of a
conflict between the two on
teachers salaries. ~
Opposes Increases.
The Governor opposes State
financed pay increases. He vetoed
a 1851 measure to provide teachers
with a $500 raise.
Senator Kimble wants the State
to expand its public schools grant
to help the teachers. He voted with
a legislative council majority that
proposed overriding the veto after
the General Assembly convenes on
February 6.
Delegate Anders r. Lofstrand ir
Republican Of Montgomery Coun-
ty. presumably will take part in
the conference as House floor
leader. He held the position last
year and there has been no open
move to replace him.
Vetoes Race Discussion.
Subjects likely to arise are the
81 post session vetoes that must
be considered by the Legislature
the 1853 budget and tax reduc-
ton.
GOV. Mckeldin Is in accord with
a legislative council measure to
chop taxes due on 1851 income
by Is per cent. A treasury surplus
would make up the money other
wise lost for 1928 appropria-
tions.
The Governor has been silent
on a legislative council measure
to broaden self-governing author
ity of the University Of Maryland.
In many respects the bill is similar
to one he vetoed after the 1851
session on grounds it would "es-
tablish q government within a
government. and that operated in
its most fundamental aspects by
one man."
The lone man" he referred to-
was DR.. H. c. Byrd. president Of
The University.
The council approved q sub
stitute bill in the nature of q COM.
promise between DR.. Byrd and
Attorney General Hall Hammond.
It's action also may be explored
in the Republican parley.

may volunteer. Only $4,000 of the
total funds are earmarked for
materials, the remainder for labor.

Bureau Seeks Fund to Protect
IBet0tron Staff From Shakes

DR.. A. ". Astin, bureau director,
testified the noise makes it i'm
possible to use the two machines
at once. Hence the efficiency of
the labratory has been cut so per
cent.
DR.. Astin said the bureau is
required to perform measurements
on large quantities of radioactive
material both for military agen-
cies and civilians. A separate
building of light construction is
planned to house this work, sep
arated from other buildings.
Fear of Spill Cited.
He said the bureau plans the
new building because of our fear
of spill" of radium or radioac-
tive cobalt.
IF that happens it would put
us out of operation, I am sure,
for three or four months" he
said. "And it would endanger
operations that are carried out in
other places in the laboratory"
He said that spills have oc-
CURED elsewhere. In each in
stance it caused a laboratory shut
down and decontamination, which
cost from $20,0 900 to 100000.
The light construction of the
proposed building is planned to
minimize costs in case decontami-
nation would make necessary COM
plete removal of a section Of the
structure.

The Bureau Of Standards has
disclosed that the terrific hum
from two large X-ray machines
in the bureaus betatron labora-
tory caused workers to become
sick.
They suffered nausea and head
aches.
The bureau is seeking a $63, 900
appropriation to construct a wing
to the laboratory building into
which one Of the machines can be
removed.
It also is asking 5000 to iso-
late the measurement of energy
OF radioactive material. This is
intended to protect other occu-
pants of the building where the
work is carried on especially in
case of Spillage.
Reasons Disclosed.
The bureaus supplemental ap-
preparation requests, and the rea-
sons for them were disclosed with
the publication of hearings before
"a House Appropriations subcom-
mittee.
A bureau official who described
the noise Of the X-ray machines
as terrific hum added, 1T makes
you vibrate."
One of the machines is a so
million volt betatron used chiefly
for cancer research. The other,
a synchrotron of 180 million volts,
is used principally in nuclear
studies.
