WHY LIGHT IS MORE
 BENEFICIAL THAN HEAT.

When rays of light fall upon the skin of our bodies, which is translu- cent, the greater part of them are arrested, some by one layer of the skin, some by another and still oth- CTS are not stopped until they have penetrated the subcutaneous tissues. This arrest of the light rays produces radiant heat, which has a higher pene- trating power than convection heat as generated by a hot water bag or poultce, for instance.
 E. C. Titus in an address before the Illuminating Engineering Society said that such heat penetrated two inches or more while convection heat was excited principally on the surface.
 This is why electric light baths and sun baths are SO stimulating to the organs Of elimination, especially the skin and kidneys and SO beneficial in SO many diseases

Becker gave out the following typewriter
statement as his dying declaration, signed IN
his own handwriting:
MY dying declaration:
Gentlemen: l stand before you III my
full senses, knowing that no power on earth can
save me from the grave that is to receive me,
in the face of that, in the teeth Of those who
condemned me and in the presence of my God,
I proclaim my absolute innocence of the foul
crime for which I must die. You are now about
to witness my destruction by the state which
is organized to protect the lives of the innocent.
May Almighty God pardon every one who has
contributed in any degree to my untimely
death. And now on the brink of my grave l
declare to the world that I am proud to have
been the husband of the purest, noblest woman
that ever lived-Helen Becker. This acknowl-
edgment is the only legacy I can leave her. 1
bid you all goodbye. Father, | am ready to go.
Amen" (Signed),

HOPE TO OBTAIN

WASHINGTON. July 29.-UnOffi-
Cial but vigorous efforts by the state
department to secure for American
importers the release OF vast con-
signments of German. Austrian and
other goods held up in neutral Eu-
ropean ports by the British order in
council are believed by officials here
to have influenced Great Britain to
formulate the supplemental note ex-
pected next week. The ~communica-
ton Is expected to present an an
swer to the unofficial representations
made Just after the original British
note was framed.
The pressure of American demands
for detained shipments has been
great. While the state department
has officially declined to recognize the
right OF Great Britain to interfere In
any way with American trade witt
neutral ports. unofficially negotiations
have been made seeking to exempt
at least a part of these consignment
from the operation OF the order II
council. Negotiations have not beer
generally successful and emphatic
though informal representations have
been forwarded to support the claimi
Of American shippers.

ton the still hush of the
dark recesses of the prison
corridors leading to Beck

former police lieutenant's

But Becker was not dis
turbed. He sat in almost
sullen silence in the pres
ence of two Catholic priests
his spiritual advisers.
At 4 o'clock candles were
lighted in the death cell and
last holy communion was
given Becker by the priests.
For more than thirty min
utes the priests were joined
by the Condemned man in
silent prayer.

hind Scheme.

WASHINGTON, July 29.-Ambas-
sador Gerard was directed today to
call to the attention of the German
government statements made d
oath in England by persons arrested
as German spies that they had been
supplied with forged American pass
ports by German officials. .
Action of the American government
was based on sworn testimony OF sew
eral alleged German spies appre-
hended by the British authorities ana
statements Of Americans whose gen
nine passports are alleged to have
been forged. Ambassador Gerard IS
directed to seek an explanation OF that
portion of testimony in several cases
which appears to make agents OF the
German government responsible foI
the ~forgeries.
OFFICIALS have been deeply con-
cerned for some time at repeated IN
stances of abuse of American pass
ports. 1t was pointed out. however
there was no recourse against deIlDer'
ate forgery of a passport.
Admitting that 1t is a delicate mat
ter to address a friendly government
in such a case, officials here feel th'
evidence In these cases has been de
lyeloped so publicly that no other coursI
appeared but to afford the German
government an opportunity to disaVov
responsibility for the actions of al
legged agents by entering q compile
denial OF the charges.
