Eskimos Soon Fall Victims to Whites' Ills Dr. Grenfell Reports They Quickly Succumb to 'Civilized' Diseases According to a report of Dr. Wilfred Grenfell, the medical worker to the National Geographic Society in Washington, only 900 to 1,000 Eskimos are still living in Labrador and they occupy the lands farthest north where the Moravian missionarles have served them for 170 years. White men's diseases hit the Eskimo hard.

Ills contracted by Eskimos who were on exhibit at the World Fairs at Chicago and Buffalo spread sickness and death in the Northland when they returned. While the influenza raged in the United States a few years ago a steamer sailed into a port 360 Eskimos and a few whites lived. On board were two seamen convalescing from influenza. Within a few days 300 Eskimos died from influenza, 1,000 Miles to a Doctor Forty years ago there was not a single resident doctor on 1,000 miles of Labrador coast. Today Dr.

Grenfell supervises a chain of four modern hospitals, eight nursing stations, one hospital steamer and four hospital boats.

These people represent the most highly infected instance of tuberculosis in any race ever accepted by boat in the Port of New York," Dr. Haven Emerson of the College of Physicians and Surgeons at Columbia University and chairman of the Health Division of the Welfare Council of New York told representatives of 50 or more national and citywide public health and welfare organizations, I governmental officials and social welfare workers yesterday afternoon.

The meeting was held at the offices of the council, 151 5th Manhattan. "A variety of tropical diseases and intestinal disorders likewise are prevalent among them. Were it not for our fine water supply, sewerage system, pasteurized milk and health conservation methods the situation would rapidly become critical.

We dealing with a halfstarved people." Dr. Emerson said. It is estimated that 150,000 Porto Ricans live in the city, congregating in upper Manhattan and in the Navy and Red Hook districts of Brooklyn. Of all deaths among young women from tuberculosis in the Greater City last year 8 percent were found to be among the Porto Ricans, it was stated. Urges Native Workers Prof.

C. Studios Passes Through Bewildering Corridors and Sees Strange Sights ABYRINTHIAN are the the studios of the Building. Few visitors bewildered in this maze of master control rooms. Employes and take them, and do become You start, perhaps, on the straight corridor you go, pausing panion to look at the great and xylophones and other Through a "No Admittance" door, of course. It: is then that you begin to regret that you have not brought your spool of thread with you.

Ah, a long room full of panels and knobs and wires. This must be where the minotaur lurks. A cautious peer- around the panels. The beast must be out to lunch. Well, on you go.

A sudden turn in the corridor and you come upon a green leathercovered door. The handle works the way It shouldn't (the theory seems to be to balk the visitor), but you get the door open and walk into a darkened control room. Through the 18 square feet of glass panel see a lighted studio. A man with his back to you sits on a high stool, his feet resting on a studio chair. Beside him is the microphone.

He plucks the banjo which he holds in his hands. The rest of the orchestra is hidden behind the piano. It is Larry Funk and his Tea Timers. Well, program nearly over. The announcer hits the gongs and makes the station announcement.

You step once more into the labyrinth's glare. Along the tortuous way you go. Sometimes the path passes through little studios, microphones waiting in their wn little mute way for some one to come and make noises into them. Once you go through a lor.g room where telegraph sounders click off their messages from other central points. Suddenly you are out into the reception hall again.

There are but two studios there. As for the 15th, well, that really is pretty comprehensive, there being but one studio there.

That, of course, makes a total of eight studios. The family's grown since the old days when WEAF and WJZ boasted but one studio apiece. And, if care to, you may take a look at the audition rooms on the third floor. They're juust like any other normal, healthy studio, except that they have no connection with the outside world. WORTH THE RISK But, even without a thread, you dare risk the minotaur, for what do you see? You see programs going on the air without a hitch.

You see a rehearsal in which silkentongued announcers hesitate over their lines. You watch a program which has fallen short and see musicians and leader perspire in an effort to fill. Yes, you risk the minotaur. What is this beast anyway? Why, it's just the fear that you won't be able to extricate yourself if your light-footed guide ever slips away. WALL ST.

A. A. RECEPTION More than 2,000 persons attended the annual reception and entertainment of the Wall Street Athletic Association in the grand ball room of the St. George Hotel last night. Professional talent entertained.

Robert W. Sullivan, Joseph D. Fitch, Robert W. Miller and Vincent Morris headed the various committees. Sitting by Wife, Man Kills Self in London Theater London-The audience at the Wood Green Empire Theater, was startled when a shot rang out from the balcony.

The attendants ran to the spot and found Richard Barton, aged 39, of Harold Road, Hornsey, unconscious' with a bullet wound in his head. Mr. Barton was sitting with his wife. About half-way through the performance he seized her arm and Sues to Leave Madhouse After Two Escapes Woodmere Man in wan, Classed as a tic, Insists He Is Sane Is a man insane because he takes French leave from an asylum and starts a legal fight for freedom? This interesting question, which some alienists call "a has just been presented to the Appellate Division by Edward J. Reilly, attorney for David Combs, 37, of Woodmere, descendant of an old Long Island family, on an appeal from a habeas corpus proceeding which held he should not be released.

Combs has been classified as a lunatic since Dec. 15, 1923, when two doctors who talked to him for 15 minutes in Mineola Jail had him committed to Kings Park. Comps landed in jail as the result of an assault charge made by neighbor because Combs resented the noise made by children playing beneath the Combs house. In the dispute, which occurred Dec. 14, 1923 Combs tapped Carman on the chest with an ax, although no injury was caused.

Reilly told the Court. In May, 1924, he left Kings Park and went to Virginia. Two months later he came home. Attendants took him back to Kings Park. Nine months afterward Combs again left.

He was found in Today's Radio Programs tor's booth in order that they might n. be left out of the fun. Real estate in suburban districts took the fancy of many of the housewives and the talk of "building a home to suit your fancy" drew many to the booths. While the newest in wall papers appealed to those who in the spring feel that even their house needs a new dress. The men turned to the paint booths and many discussions were carried on as to what color the boat should be painted next summer.

The outside of the home was not neglected by the exh bitors either, who displayed the latest in roofing and colorful awnings.

Stewart, associate professor of astrophysics at Princeton University, earth dwellers will probably be able to travel to moon and communicate with the folks home by telephoning a moonbeam, in another 120 years. Professor Stewart made the prediction in an address the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sciences last night. Within the next 50 years, he predicted, vehicles will have been perfected to attain a speed of 1,000 miles an hour, and within the next 120 years, rocket ships capable of a speed of 50,000 miles an hour will probably have been perfected.

Dr. Stewart based his guesses on the tremendous increase in the rate of speed in passenger-carrying vehicles during the last century. He said that one of the most feasible methods interplanetary travel would be the rocket ship, to which a dozen or more cannons are attached. The ship would weigh about 70,000 tons, 28,000 tons of which would be ammunition, which when shot from the guns would whizz the ship through space. The crew would number about 60, and a pleasure trip for a dozen passen'gers might last about two months..
