Whot the Doctor Orders

Commissioner Spencer has
declared publicly that he
will not accept reappointment
when his term expires next
April. His successor will be
chosen early in order to pre-
vent a stampede by the we'll
wishers of other candidates.
1t is not too soon, therefore.
to call attention to the fact
that one of the Board Of Com
missOners should be a member
of the medical profession. More
than half the responsibilities
of the board are concerned
with the Health Department,
the city hospitals, the public
welfare and penal institutions;
and the knowledge, experience
and sympathies Of a physician
are desirable. in order to main
tain these agencies and to adj
wise the Board of Commits
sioners of their needs and pos
sible inadequacies. Corpora
ton with the D. c. Medical
Society membership 10000
can best be had If one of its
members should occupy a seat
on the board. and the result
ing advice and counsel could
help solve the health and well
fare problems which contin-
ually arise.
The time is past when ap-
pointments to the Board of
Commissioners can wisely be
made solely as an award for
political activity. Washington
has grown up and it can ILL
afford Commissioners whose
interest, education and expert
ence do not coincide with the
duties they are each expected
to perform. Mr.. Mclaughlin
(who Is a lawyer. Gen. Lane
(who is an e%ngineer) and a
doctor of medicine would make
an ideal combination to guide
Washington through these
troublous times. Advisers to
the President would be wise to
digest the contents Of this
letter and give them careful
consideration before they pre-
sent to him their choice of a
successor to Commissioner
Spencer. d.. James A. Gan
non, ST.. appears to be emf
nently qualified for a seat on
the board.

dead ball" era. His long arms and large
hands were assets in covering the difficult
shortStop hot spot. A grounder In Wag-
ner's direction was almost a sure out, even
before those arms and hands had swung
into action. There can be no doubt as
to Honus Wagner's impress on the game
he loved and played so well. His was a
leading role in raising baseball to the
plane of prestige and popularity which it
enjoys today.

to stick to its clearly stated
policy, and place any good
teacher 1t can find in any
school. I make this request in
the firm conviction that race
has nothing whatever to do
with a persons ability to teach,
and that a good teacher de-
serves the respect Of the entire
community.

Russians Built Causeway From Siberia to Island, Eyewitness Reports

TOKYO, tR - A Japanese ship captain today said the Russians had constructed rock and earth fill causeway between Siberia and the island of Sakhalin, north of Japan, and apparently plan to run a railway across it.
 Capt. Kenji Mizoguchi said he had been allowed to land at Laza- rev, Siberia, and inspect the causeway across the narrowest point-about 10 miles-of Mamiya Strait.
 There have been previous re- ports-and denials-of the cause way. This was the first by a Japanese who said he personally saw the causeway.

 In the interest of accuracy, I think it is time to reporters and Linotype operators that the word trillion has r" in it.
 During recent years we have had lot of trouble getting millions and billions strengthened out One of the most typos is to write $281 100000 when actually we mean $281, ,000 000,000 They look pretty much alike. And they sound pretty much alike, too- million and billion. Just matter of an m or "b.
 But now, as the national debt approaches new horizons and Congress is thinking big should probably all get familiar with the word "tron" It's little more complicated since instead of just substut ing ''t" for "b an "r' must be thrown in.
 Another problem with trillion dollar debt, from the newspapermans standpoint is the difficulty of making $1 OOO 0OO 100000 fit into headline Of headline writer might note to say, Zeros con- tinued on page S. but that hardly seems proper news paper styling.
 There is also an international problem. Heres how Webster defines tron: Tn French and American mo- tation thousand billions, in English and German notations million billions Imagine what would hap pen if we started talking trons in foreign aid departments Only safeguard would be another head line complication. It would probably be necessary to write 'Trillion (Amer & French)" "Trillion Ger. & Eng)"
 Under the circumstances, 1t would seem the better part of wisdom for newspapermen to fight the tron dollar trend. It's too complicated But-just in case remember that trillion has an r in it-"R like the first letter in the word Ruin"

 Gruening also criticized the fed eral government, saying it ''in- sists on holding most of the land in Alaska. There is plenty of it and it's badly needed, but ex- tremely difficult to get

 For 'CoIoniaIism' In Alaska

KANSAS CITY, R-Most op- ponents of Alaskan statehood are found in Seattle, says Ernest T. Gruening, Alaska governor from 1889 to 1853.
 The former territorial gover- nor, here for a series of lecturers at the University of Kansas this week, voiced his views on Alas kan problems freely in an inter view.
 He also listed as opponents of statehood the salmon canning in dustry, operating out of Seattle, and southern congressman.
 The salmon industry is deci- mating the Alaska salmon popula- ton and putting Alaska fisher men out of business, with no in reference from the federal Fish and Wildlife Service, Gruening said.
