DOCTORS DISAGREE.

Writing on What Science Says About Alcohol" in recent number of Munsey's Magazine, MT. Burton J. Hen drick alludes to the differing methods employed by physicians and laboratory workers. "The latter" he says "care nothing for theories and inherited knowledge' they submit everything to Xperimeutation-t the test tube and microscope. The remarkable fact is,' he continues, that, though the doctors may disagree about alcohol, as about many other things, the scien- lists apparently never do. Practically all who have really eXperimented have rendered the verdict strongly against it. Alcohol in their view is not a stim- ulant, it is not an appetizer or an aid to digestion, it is not food in any real meaning of the word, it is not an inspiration and help to mental work and 1t does not increase muscular ac- tivity. In other words, cold blooded modern science brands as untrue prac- tically all the claims for alcohol which poets, philosophers, convivialists and even physicians have made since the beginning of civilization"

YEARS OF EXPERIENCE.

Cambridge, Mass, has been a tenn. perance city for 26 consecutive years In October, 1913, its mayor gave out the following facts
 1886. 1913. Population ..... 59O0O 10000 Valuation =. .$59, ,445,67O s1171S6.40O Savings banks
 deposits ....s6, ,560,934 $26,243, ,736 Depositors .... 21,215 63,645
 This, the mayor believes, is more than the natural or ordinary increase and undoubtedly due to the no-license policy.
 The number of children attending public schools in 1886 was 9,63f, of whom 516 were in the high school. In 1913 there were 16,0O0 public school children, of whom more than 2,GO0 were in the high schools This, " points out Mayor Barry, shows a marked increase in the number of children who by reason of bette,' con- ditions are privileged to continue their education in the higher grades.
 Concerning the effects of temper ance upon the business interests of the city, he says: During the years there have located in this city over twenty new concerns representing various industries. It appears that these new concerns employ about two thousand persons, with annual pay rolls of over s1,O0O,OOO, md have ex- pended for suitable buildings to carry on their industries in this city over $400000.
 We have 1t from some of the busi- Cambridge that one of the principal things that attracted them to locate here with large number of employees was the fact that Cambridge is we'll established as a no-license city"

WASHINGTON. D. c., Aug. 14.-An
appeal to the United States govern
ment to establish a War Insurance In
order that the American merchant ma
rine may be on a footing equal to that
of England, France and Germany, was
made to the government today by rep
resentatives of the chief financial and
business interests of the country. The
appeal was presented at g. conference
between Secretary of Treasury Nc
Adoo, Secretary Houston, secretary Of
Commerce Redfield, the Federal Re-
serve Board and Business Men from
New York. Chicago and other princi-
pal cities. Among those present were
James J. Hill, J. P. Morgan, Seth Low,
Jas. Farrell, John Bassett Moore, and
Robert Dollar of San Francisco.
How to establish basis of foreign
exchange, how to restore ocean trans
portation facilities so that grain and
cotton may be shipped abroad and how
the government may establish war in
surance on bottoms and cargoes were
the three subjects discussed.
The conference did not reach a So
luton of any of these problems.
TT was decided that the chief thing
to do at this time is to get ships start
ed for Europe with our grain, and that
while We are establishing a merchant
marine we must establish it under con-
ditions that will make it as effective as
the merchant marines of Great Britain
and France by giving it governmental
war insurance. Our ships are ipar-
alyZed without insurance. In fact all
merchant marines will flock under the
United States flag to gain the benefit
Of insurance against war risks.
