WASHINGTON, June 2S-"How am
I TO keep cool this weather." was
the question submitted today to AS
sistant Surgeon General of the Public
Health Service w. c. Rucker by a
United Press correspondent.
Here is the prescription that Off
cial recommended: Discarding medi-
cal terms and making his recon-
mendaticns so that the average man
and woman can apply them;
First Of all, being cool is largely
a condition of mind. One who wants
to keep cool should make up his
mind to be still-in other words, not
to produce heat Heat is caused by
burning of the human tissues and
the tissues are burned by action or
movement.
"One should avoid meats in hot
weather; should eat cooked veg
estahles and avoid green fruits be-
cause they upset the digestion and
invite intestinal attacks.
"Of course every human has tc
produce a certain amount of heat
but there is a science in getting rio
of the heat so produced, that is little
known to the average man.
Ventilation of clothing, OF Offices

body

Great Excitement
In Rival Armies

Ell Paso, Tex, Feb. 23-The killing of
Francisco Madero and Pine Suarez, re-
spectively the deposed President and Vice
President of Mexico, has created as much
excitement along the border as did the
Mexico City revolt.
The federal volunteer troops, already
stirred by the downfall of their former
leader, threaten Immediately TO quit SER
vice. but to retain their arms. Their juno
ton with the rebels has been feared since
the revolution at the national capital.
Even the rebels appear aroused by the
death of the man they fought so long 10
destroy.
Since the killing or Gustavo Madero the
rebels have been inclined toward leniency
to the eX-President. They asserted that
Madero's worst self died with Gustavo
in the north. 1t is admitted generally
that the Huerta government has lost
much by the incident, which is hailed rs
a return to the methods of so years ago
Col. Juan Vasquez garrison commander
at Juarez, declined to express an opinion
on the deaths of the two former leaders
except to say that he believed the affair
would have no material effect on the sit
uation. The volunteer troops remained

a strike, was an Improvement over
the previous condition. The same was
true of the deposition of the Mexican
President. SO much remains, however,
to still be solved in the problems pre-
sented by both of these questions that
last weeks developments went but a
little way in affordins relief.
The Stock Exchange element was
greatly perturbed by the Albany pro-
posal to double the tax on stock trans
fers. The effect was aggravated by
assertions that the Albany measures
for stock market regulation We're be-
ing considered as models by the Pujo
committee at Washington in the franz
ing of it's report This coupled with
the news that J. p. Morgan had been
i'll, completed the discontinue of spec
ulative sentiment
The more authoritative financial opin-
ion, however, does not miss the per
eeption. of the large part played by the
European unsettlement in the sparsity
of capital available fer investment. Not
only are banking reserves abroad
drained for private boarding purposes,
thus impairing the credit basis. but
large amounts of credits are held as a
precaution to apply to expected issues
of government loans and other capital
issues. The necessity forced by the
Union Pacific dissolution decree of un-
derwriting that eompany's holdings of
Southern Pacific thus comes at a time
peculiarly unpropitious. The practi-
cal wiping out of the value of the
stockholders subscription rights has
resulted from the decline in Southern
Pacific, itself. Pressure on other Sc
curities undoubtedly is caused by prep
arations for this subscription.
