Good Patient Hailed For Double Service The diabetic who maintains physical fitness by closely following his physician's orders as to diet and medication helps not only himself but other diabetics, Dr.

Elliott P. Joslin, Boston, noted authority on diabetes, told 750 persons at a free public lecture at the Hotel Netherland Plaza yesterday afternoon. The careful diabetic proves that a person afflicted with the disease can live and work virtually as well as any other person; careless diabetic, who "breaks training" and pays for it by illness and inefficiency, spreads a false impression that diabetics cannot hold down jobs as well as other men, according to Dr. Joslin. Dr.

Joslin, introduced by Dr. Cecil Striker, Chairman of the Cincinnati Committee on Diabetes, also spoke on the disease at a meeting of the Academy of Medicine last night. described research going on at Harvard Medical School, where he is professor of medicine. Researchers have developed a new form of insulin, still in its experimental stage, which cffers hope of easier treatment in specific cases, he said. Dr.

Joslin noted the importance of not regarding insulin an "inviolate" substance, but as a substance which, in different forms and allied with other substances, still offers to the experimentalist material for research on increasingly effective treatment of diabetes. The afternoon meeting was under auspices of the Public Health Federation. Dr. Joslin visited the Research Institute at Jewish Hospital and the Medical College of the University of Cincinnati yesterday morning.

ACHIEVEMENTS 0f 20 Years Are Cited In Reports On Cincinnati Streets And Bridges. Three Committees Report To Cincinnatus Association -Hulbert Taft Reads Special Paper. A picture of Cincinnati streets and viaducts- -what has been done, what will be done, and what ought to be done- was placed before the Cincinnatus Association by its Committee on Streets and Bridges. In a lighter vein than the statistical papers of his three contemporaries, Hulbert Taft, presented a paper on "Names of Cincinnati Streets." Other papers were "City Bridges," Herbert Schroth, Chairman, "Operations of the Highway Department," Charles Ault, and "Roads in Relation to the City Plan," Reginald Barnard. Taft lamented the fact that many of the quaint, picturesque names of early Cincinnati streets had given way to designations of little significance, the only excuse for which, in many cases, appeared to be that they were "up-to-date." OLD PLANK ROAD RECALLED.

Has Observatory Avenue the strong flavor of Old Plank Road? the speaker asked. Or is Delta Avenue preferable to Crawfish Road? And could the city fathers find so little in the history of the Queen City to draw from that Lincoln Park Drive was the most appropriate name they could find for the Terminal approach. The county, Taft said, had been more fortunate in retaining old and picturesque names which provide a tie with pioneers of the last century. Among these he mentioned Spooky Hollow, Cooper's Mill, Paddy's Run, Roundbottom, and others. Recalling the manner in which streets in Mount Adams were named, Taft said that John Quincy Adams came to Cincinnati in 1842 to dedicate the placing of a telescope on the hill overlooking.

Cincinnati. He called the astronomical origin of the names of a number of streets in that suburb, Sidereal, Orion, Celestial, Paradrome, and Parallel. During the war, Taft said, in an excess of patriotism, the names of many streets were changed because of their Teutonic origin. these he named Hamburg to Stonewall, Bismarck to Montreal, Bremen to Republic, to Woodrow, Gerto English, and at the same time Bigelow to King Albert. RIDGE EXAMPLE CITED.

In the bustle of these changes Wilhelm Street Pleasant Ridge was given the doubtfully distinctive name of Motley Street, he said. But when a storm of protest rose, this was changed to Ridgeland Avenueiting the difficulty of finding appropriate street names in many instances, Taft offered no criticism or recommendation. He suggested only that the history of a century be tapped more freely for street names of the future and that less effort be made to be so "up-todate" in this matter. Describing Cincinnati as a "city of are 123 bridges and viaducts in the citydiscussed bridge building activities of the past and needs for the future. Of bridge building needs he listed as the most urgent the elimination of grade crossings.

The most hazard ous crossings, he said, were Seventy-first and Seventy-fourth Streets at the New York Central Railroad; Hartwell Avenue at the Baltimore and Ohio; Clifton Avenue and Mitchell Avenue at the Baltimore and Ohio; Rendcomb Junction at the Pennsylvania, and Erie Avenue at the Pennsylvania. Dividing the last 20 years into two periods, Ault said 69.07 miles of streets were paved from 1916 to 1925 and 174 miles from 1925 to 1935, an average of seven miles a year during the first period and 17 miles during the second. Based on normal deterioration expectancy, Ault said approximately 15 miles of streets should be built each year. AVERAGE COST LOWER. During the 1916-1925 period the average cost of street construction was $92,800 a mile, he said, and in the 1925-1935 period, $88,800.

Barnard discussed road construction as it relates to the city plan. Although it is planned to spend $1,600,000 on streets in 1936 and an additional $1,500,000 (either spent or to be spent), Barnard said many of the most "overloaded" streets were not included in the program. Myron Downs, City Planning Engineer, whom Schroth credited with supplying much of the committee's material, discussed briefly the work of the Planning Commission. Downs referred particularly to Knowlton's Corner as presenting one of the most acute traffic problems in the city. He said the Planning Commission had in mind, as a solution for this problem, the construction of a new parallel highway to Spring Grove Avenue.

The plan, he said, would be far less costly than widening Spring Grove Avenue and, in the commission's opinion, relieve the congestion at that point. THREE CHURCHES ENTERED. Although the doors and windows of three churches were found open early yesterday by Patrolman Wedig, nothing, was missing. The churches the Northside M. E.

April 14- (AP)S M. Friedberg, Assistant Prosecutor, placed homicide charges against fifteen-year-old James Gau-. jot tonight for the slaying of his uncle, Colonel A. A. Gaujot.

Friedberg said "it is not for me to determine what to do about his uncle's deathbed request that he not be prosecuted. That is for a jury to decide." The fifty-seven-year-old, SpanishAmerican War veteran died today from five bullet wounds. Friedberg said James admitted the shooting. Sheriff. W.

E. Hatfield said the nephew fired five times through a door in the hotel where he lived, because his uncle questioned him about a $12 check his father had given to him. The parent, Colonel Julien Gaujot, also holder of a Congressional Medal, was reported to be near collapse. Retiring from active duty last year at Kansas City, he came to Williamson with his son two months ago. Colonel A.

A. Gaujot was widely known in Greater Cincinnati military circles, having commanded the Citizens Military Training Camp at Fort Thomas in 1931. He also had been at the Fort Thomas Army Post for summer training in 1925 and 1926.

If your skin is dry, be very careful of color of your powder and favor the new peachy tone even if you like rachel as a basis.

Next--Purple Mascara "The tendency of the proportional representation method of voting to break down the twoparty system of government constitutes its greatest menace," Loyal S. Martin, Assistant County Prosecutor, declared last night in an address before the Women's Second Ward Republican Club at Junior Order Hall, Madisonville. Martin denounced the "avowed purpose of P. R. to permit small groups to have representation." P.

R. may give minority members of council a seat in council, but does not permit them to participate in the city government, he said. "For the last 10 years," he asserted, "the Republican party has been the minority group in Council. During that time the greatest care was taken to see that the Republican group 'sat' but did not Committees, were made up in Charter caucus before Council meetings. Appointments were made in the same manner.

The minority could vote for or against measures, matters were so well in hand that the minority voting was of no consequence. "Only on one occasion has the minority been able to 'participate' in city government. Last January we were treated to the amazing spectacle of a group that had by that time become a minority group, selling out to one individual in council in order to obtain his individual selfish vote and perpetuate itself in power. "There is no happy medium' with P. R.

There is no middle ground of safety. Minority participation in government means either no voice whatsoever or complete dictatorship of policy and legislation." COOK OUT OF RACE.

Chandler and her chauffeur were taken by arresting Constable officer, H. C. dismissed Hoffman, the charge on the grounds that Mrs. Chandler had a legitimate excuse to exceed the speed limit. When Mrs.

Cook declared he would keep his pledge to vote for the nominee, "But," he added, "I'll pinch a clothespin on my nose before placing my before his name on the ballot." Warning that the National Union for Social Justice might develop an undesirable agency if "Father Coughlin cannot keep demagogues from using the union to their own advantage," Dr. Cook in his announcement said: "Up this time I looked upon the National Union for Social Justice as a promising agency for democratic government, but I'm beginning to fear that it might develop into just the opposite: sort of an agency. And is just what will happen if Father Coughlin cannot keep demagogues from using the union to further their own ambitions and schemes. "Just as the machine gun would be a blessing to society in the hands of society-protecting officers but anything but a blessing to society in the hands of murderous gangsters, so the union will be anything but an agent of democratic government if its political powers fall into the clutches of insincere agitators and demogogues; it would be the demagogue's political machine gun. "Too bad the local branch of union did not indorse one of the other candidates- Boyle, Longley, and O'Conner.

All these are sane politically and sound morally. like all the other candidates, pledged myself to vote for the indorsee before the indorsement was made. It was like buying a cat in a bag and I should have refused to comply with this demand of the union's convention officers, but having made the pledge I'll vote for the indorsee and drop out of the race. "But I'll pinch a clothespin on my nose before placing my before his name on the ballot. I expect to be required to serve a few extra days in purgatory for voting for him, but that won't be hard-I'll be acclimated by that time.

"But I shouldn't squawk. I stupidly followed and boosted Bigelow for many years and we must expect to reap what we sow." "VERY MUCH IN RACE" For Congress, O'Connell SaysExpects N. U.S. J. Vote.

"I am still very much in the congressional race," James E. O'Connell, Assistant City Solicitor, declared yesterday. "I expect to poll every Democratic vote within the local National Union for Social Justice organization at the primary election May 12." O'Connell's supporters in the National Union for Social Justice declared yesterday that they were "elated" at the strong representation O'Connell had in the N. U. S.

J. convention. They charged the convention group was "almost solidly organized and dominated by the indorsed candidate in the Second District." Headquarters for O'Connell was opened yesterday in the offices of George E. McDonald, Fountain Squire Building. Plans were made for an extensive speaking campaign in his behalf.

TWO LEGISLATORS SPEAK. Mathias Bill "Repudiation" Of Non-Partisan Ballot Denied, Statements of opponents of the P.

Reiners. Kane and Reiners were speakers at the noon meeting of the committee opposed to P. R. in the Chamber of Commerce Building. "The form of ballot in this bill does not change the non-partisan system of electing Judges that is proposed for Councilmen in the amendment," Kane declared.

"I supported the bill, feeling it would bring more competent Judges to the bench. Reiners said: "The ballot still will be devoid of any political insignia. The names of candidates will rotate as they have been doing for nearly a quarter of a century." FLARSHFIM SCORES TAFT In Speech Opening Campaign For County Board Seat. Henry B. Flarsheim, independent candidate for the Democratic nomination for County Commissioner, who is supported by Councilman Herbert S.

Bigelow, opened his campaign last night with a radio address. Flarsheim declared for Proportional Representation voting, denouncing all who oppose it, and took a fling at Robert A. Taft, Ohio Republican favorite son candidate, for Chamber of President, Commerce, officials and of "political bosses." Urging election of the BigelowPfaff candidates for the Legislature, Flarsheim said this group was pledged to end the sales tax which, he charged, robbed the poor and protected the rich. Flarsheim declared independent candidates headed by Joseph A. Dixon and Herbert S.

Bigelow, National Union for Social Justice candidates for Congress, were the only ones who could be elected against "Boss Taft's henchmen in November. FATHER COUGHLIN INVITED. Rev. Charles E. Coughlin, Royal Oak, has been invited to speak in Cincinnati during the primary campaign, Albert E.
