OXYGEN AND HEALTH.
0eisntists Maintain That Too Much CO
the Gas 10 Harmful.

Scientists Maintain That Too Much q
the 0as 10 Harmful.
In a recent publication Of the smith-
sonian institution It is asserted that Il
in a fallacy to assume that a dimin-
ished amount Of oxygen IL harmful.
At noted health resorts in the Alps
the barometer stands at such . height
that the concentration Of oxygen II
far less than in the most Ill ventilated
room. One unfortunate result Of this
fallacy is that the laws regarding ven
ulation of mines insist on q high per-
centage, of oxygen and thereby in
cas- the danger Of mine explosions.
Finally, the widespread belief in the
presence Of an organic poison in ex-
pired air is equally erroneous. The
smells of crowded rooms and the like
are no indication that the air is delete
rious. 1.-The deaths in the Black Hole
Of Calcutta, the depression, headache,
etc., in close rooms are alike due to
heat stagnation. The victims Of the
Black Hole died Of heat stroke" This
is rather more than is likely to be
readily accepted, observes the editor
Of the American Machinist.
It 10 also said that the chemical con-
tent Of the air in crowded places has
nothing to do with its i'll effects; that,
apart from the influence Of injecting
bacteria, the ventilation problem is one
OF temperature, of relative humidity
and Of air movement. The percentage
Of carbon dioxide in the worst VENT
lated room does not rise above O.6 or,
at most. l per cent, whereas the nor
NAL concentration Of carbon dioxide
In the lungs is from 3 to 6 per cent Of
an atmosphere. A great many expert
ments and observations are adduced
to prove that percentages regarded as
deleter1ous or deadly by hygienists are
quite harmless.

Paris, July 31.-Jean Leon Jaufes,

Chamber of Deputies, was shot TO-
night by an assassin and he expired IN
a few minutes. Several revolver bullets
we're fired at him from the street
through window of the Cafe du Crois-

VI. Jaures was the most noted orator
in France and the most powerful anti
war agitator in Europe. He was sitting

Croissant with a party of friends and
political followers when he was shot.

be an Austrian. He was seized by the

FOOD PRICES SOAR
IN GREAT BRITAIN
Paris and Berlin Both Feel Pinch
Belgium Stops Expectation
of Live Stock and Grain.
[By Gable to The Tribune. }

London, July 31.-From all parts Of
the United Kingdom and the Continent
comes word of the upward climb in the
prices of food. The situation is rat
ur1lly worse in the immediate war
area. but housewives in London and
other big cities are already feeling the
pinch of wartime prices.
The War Office caused 50-cent ad-
vance in the price of oats through the
purchase of large supply. Meanwhile
in the corn market English wheGt,
maize and barley are all up from 81 TO
so cents, but there is little trading,
thr general tendency being to conserve
the far from abundant supplies.
from Berlin and Paris come reports
of terrific upward trend in the cos.
of living. Berlin prices have risen -
per cent, and II is not possible TO buy
potatoes in the market, all having been
purchased for the army. 1t is ae-
clared that Germany could exist for a
year with an importation Of not more
than 100000 tons of grain, because
the normal large rye exports to Rus
sia would remain in Germany.
German municipalities are appropri-
ating money TO lay in stores Of grain
and -four. which are now, of course,
