BIR MINGHAM FAVORED
FOR A SUB-TREASURY

WASHINGTON. April Representa-
tive Edwards, of the First district, today
introduced a bill providing for the es-
Establishment of sub-trea sury at Savan-
nah. The bill goes to the ways and
means committee for consideration, and
it may be stated with positiveness that
Savannah has small chance of winning
this desired plum, for which many south
ern cities have struggled for years.
1t is equally as certain that Atlanta
is out of the running for the establish
ment of a sub-treasury, If perchance
congress determines to locate such an in
stitution in the southeastern states. In
deed, Atlantas chances of a sub-treas-
ury are not as good as those of Sa-
vannah.
Birmingham is the strongest contender
for sub-treasury. and if the matter is
pressed, the chances all favor the Ala
bama city, not because of any superior
merits In its claim. but because Biz
mingham man is chairman of the ways
and means committee. Representa- tive

Georgia has one member on the ways
and means committee, Congressman
Brantley. of Brunswick. AS between At
lanta and Savannah, Mr.. Brantley favors
Savannah, so 1t appears Atlanta is with
out a friend on the committee.
When the proposaI to establish sub
treasury in the southeast was before con-
gress three or four years ago. the idea
was finally abandoned because the dele
cations from the several states could
not agree definitely upon suitable loca-
ton for the institution. Atlanta was
the strongest contender. but even then
Mr.. Underwood. as a-member of the ways
and means committee, was influential
enough 10 prevent any legislation not IA
vorable to Birmingham.
Under the circumstances. it might be
well enough if Atlanta would not agitate
the establishment of a sub-treasury any
where in the southeastern states.

tBy As.oeisted Press. }


WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE first big
legal contest arising out Of the passage
of the pure food and drug act OF 1906
had the right of way today in the SUI
premea court OF the United states. The
government was making last effort to
slistain It's claim. too tlfeg right to prose-
cute crimfnAily persons who labeled drugs
or medicines with false statements about
the curative properties of their prepare
The point arose in the;district court In
western Missouri where an Indictment
against DR.. o. A. Johnson was quashed
on the ground that, the act did not APP
ply to false. statements about the cura7
tive properties of drugs. but only to false
statements regarding the ingredients. Dr.
Johnson was charged with having ship
ped in. Interstate commerce drugs which
he stated would cure cancer, but which
the government claims were entirely
ineffective and worthless for that pur-
pose"
1t Is claimed on behalf OF johnson that
II the law is to be interpreted as for
bidding statement about the curative
properties of drugs, the act is unconsti-
tutional. Sucn statements are defended
as mere forecasts concerning a future
event. Denial is made that they should
be regarded as statements of facts. Ply
sicians throughout the country would be
in extreme peril, it is claimed by john
sons attorneys, and would hazard the
risk of criminal prosecution by giving
any written opinion to their patients or
any explanation upon a prescription as
to what it was intended to accomplish
where it should become a matter OF inter-
state transportation, If the indictment
against Johnson were allowed to stand.
Solicitor General Lehman in brief for
the government he has just filed with
the court, says that study of the act
shows that congress had in mind strik-
ing at false statements, regarding the
remedial qualities of drugs He defends
the law as constitutional when inter-
preted to forbid such statements.
He denies that the law so interpreted
would reach any physician in the pfac-
tice of his calling. He declares that the
act does not deal with mental healing,
with cures by faith or prayer or Chris
tian Science. but with practice"
