YADEN SEES NEED Rhode Island Avenue Citi zens Told Commissioners Are Overburdened. There is room for much improve ment in the District of Columbia gov ernment, James G. Yaden, president of the Federation of Citizens' Asso ciations, told members of the Rhode Island Avenue Citizens’ Association at Its meeting held in the VVoodridge Langdon Library branch. President Yaden said he did not favor elimination of the Zoning Com mission, Park and Planning Commis sion and the Public Utilities Commis sion and Riving the District Com missioners authority to carry on their work. The Commissioners now have more work than they can give their personal attention. Yaden said, but he believes the Commissioners should have some additional power without having to go to Congress for approval of numerous small matters. He praised the Commissioners for seeking an ap propriation to replace inadequate furnaces in some schools. Support for Bill Asked. He urged the association to help get the anti-gambling bill out .of the committee hearings so it may be enacted, as most of the citizens’ asso ciations are opposed to the "numbers racket” and the bill was drafted to eliminate it. In closing his address President Yaden spoke briefly on the automobile liability bill, the airport bill, the small loan bill and on the proposal of the special committee of the Federation on reorganization of the District govern ment to have the citizens elect a council. Rev. H. H. Rowland, chairman of the Schools Committee, reported that the goal of his committee Is the com pletion of the Taft Junior High School with the construction of two wings; the construction of a suitable sidewalk on the east side of Queens Chapel road for the school children; a full-time Ubrary; site for an elementary school on Bunker Hill road; a study of the Maryland and Virginia children at tending the city schools; the landscap ing of the Taft School grounds and the co-operation of the Parent-Teach er Associations. Testimonials Sent Two. Testimonials for their services ren dered the association as secretary and president, respectively, were sent to Julian F. Belfleld and George L. Gee. Both retired from office last month. The meeting night of the associa tion was changed from the last Wed nesday to the second Wednesday, be ginning with the April meeting. Clayton C. Marsh, president, ap pointed the following chairmen for the standing committees: Membership, William P. Thomas; legislation, Charles O. Pierce; schools. Rev. H. H.

Acts as In surance Rates Soar. KANSAS CITY, February 28 (A>).— Mounting costs of liability insurance in Kansas City led yesterday to forma tion of a Chamber of Commerce spon sored bureau to fight what business men here describe as a "fake claim racket" of alarming proportions. Within the last 90 days Vincent Wakefield, chairman of the Execu tive committee of the Insurance Com mittee of the Chamber of Commerce, told the committee today, insurance companies have raised liability rates here from 100 to 400 per cent. SURGEON MEETS GIRL OF INVERTED STOMACH By the Associated Press. FALL RIVER, Mass., February 28.— Dr. Philemon E. Truesdale, noted sur geon who hopes to correct Alyce Jane McHenry’s Inverted stomach, found his small patient quite as lovable as his associates described her. Dr. Truesdale met the 10-year-old Omaha girl last night for the first time. He had just returned from a West Indies cruise and had taken only time to look over Alyce Jane’s X-rays before he visited the child. He said he would do what he could. He would not predict the outcome of the operation, nor would he say defi nitely how long it would take or when it would be performed. Alyce Jane's cheerful disposition, which has persisted despite intense pain, apparently made quite an im pression on Dr. Truesdale. Dr. Truesdale is a specialist in diaphragmatic surgery. j HONEST RELIABLE DENTISTRY MOST NATURAL LOOKING TEETH SPECIAL ATTENTION TO NERVOUS PATIENT* TEETH EXTRACTED. $1.00; WITH GAS. $’.00 MAID IN ATTENDANCE AT ALL TIMER.
