TERRIBLE EFFECTS
OF GERMAN GAS
ON HELPLESS ENEMY

ASSOCIATED Press Correspondence
Warsaw. June From Yesterday
afternoon through the night, all avail
able ambulances, sanitary wagons and
tramcars, the latter specially rugged
into ambulances, have been ARRIVING
victims Of the German gas attacks
from the south to the many hospitals
In this city. The Associated i'ress
correspondent visited several hosp!t-
ais to view at first hand the results Of
inhaling the asphyxiating gases ustd
by the Germans. In one hospital 700
beds were occupied by men with II
er-colored faces, bloodshot eyes. nce--
ly lifeless. but with open mos
gasping for breath. Six victims d.
in the ambulances en- route from r
Vienna railway station. ~
night the doctors and nurses work
untiringly applying remedies for ~
relief of the fearful sufferings of tie
patients. Injections Of camphor s.
luton under the skin appears to he
the most effective treatment so faf
discovered. The gas appears TO have
the effect of turning the blood of the
victim inky- black. The patients lie
motionless, seemingly in a stupor, the
heavy breathing interrupted from time
TO time By racking cough.

ASSOCIATED Press Correspondence
London, June 19.-Shortage Of male
labor in the United Kingdom which
was reported by nearly all trades in
April. has now extended to female
and boy labor according to the Board
of Trade Labor Gazette's monthly re-

Enlistment makes the working of

trades difficult; mental trades are ac-
tive; while engineering and ship
building trades continue to work
at high pressure with night shifts,
Sunday work and much overtime.
Textile trades are we'll employed and
various ether industries show i'm
provement. In agriculture there is a
general scarcity of labor.
Increases in wages coming into OPP
GRAFTON in May amounted to sa4oO 900

MARIETTA JEWS

Anti-Frank Forces Are
Active in Mary Pha-
CAMS Birthplace

Declaring that the anti-Frank forces
are trying to hound all Of the Jews
out OF Marietta, Ga, the birthplace of
Mary Phagen and the town where she
is buried. a committee Of prominent
Atlanta Jews has sought the assist
ance Of Solicitor General Hugh Dor
sey, Franks prosecutor. to stop what
they declare is nothing less than per-
secution.
1t is said that threatening letters
have been sent to the leading Jews
in Marietta ordering them to get ont
Of town. while warnings have been
posted in their stores demanding that
they close out their business. Solic-
itor Dorsey communicated imnedi-
ately with Solicitor Herbert Clay at
Marietta, who will act If tangible evil
dence upholding the charges can be
had.
All troops guarding the home of
Governor John Marshall Slaton have
been withdrawn, but the sentiment
aroused against the governor by his
action in committing Franks death
sentence to life Imprisonment has not
died out entirely.
No trouble is reported at the State
prison farm near Milledgeville, where
Frank Is confined. though double
guards are still on duty. Frank has
made a good impressin on the other
prisoners, and is regaining his nerve.
A. H. Henslee, one of the jurors in
the Frank case, who was attacked
after the trial by Luther Rosser, who
charged that he was biased and had
expressed himself before the trial as
opposed to Frank, has issued a state
ment in which he attacked Rosser and
Governor Slaton and asserted that
both should be barred from Georgia

Henslee card. some Of the happenings

suited as follows: Guilty. ten; doubt
full, one, and blank, one.
A juror called out: II would like to
know who would vote doubtful in a
case like this"
Henslee sprang to his feet. II voted
that way" he said. 1T is true we
have been together for some time
and that we have all heard the evil
dence in this case but we have not
had the right to discuss it. We have
in our hands today the life Of a man.
1t is a serious duty that confronts U.S.

Then started a discussion Of the
case. This discussion with an exami-

TWILIGHT SLEEP
BUT PART OF FEM
INST MOVEMENT

Chicago. July 1.-THE demand by
of the feminist movement" said DR..
Sarah NJ. Hobson Of Chicago. at a meet
ing of the Obstetrical Society of the
American Institute of Homeopathy. here
today. DR.. Hobson, who is secretary of
the Institute, was discussing a paper on
THE Technic of Twilight Sleep" by DR..
Florence Ward of San Francisco.
THE feminist movement calls for the
opportunity of living in accord with evo-
luton of the individual and society,
rather than to be bound by tradition"
continued DR.. Hobson. Eve rejects the
materialistic Interpretation Of the ancient
theology Saved through collaborating

been the keenest critic of medical pro-
cedure. 1t was the critical mother who
was prompt to charge the general prac-
titioner with careless cleansing of the
clinical thermometer. passed from mouth
to mouth. 1t was the woman, both
mother and club-woman. who made caus-
tic comment upon the medical essayist
who, although famous for surgical tech
mic, moistened the finger with saliva to
turn the pages Of his manuscript"
The technic Of twilight sleep, DR.. Hob
son pointed out, comprises the following:
0) Environment of quiet. rejecting all
external irritation Of nerve centers.
(2) Initial minimal dose Of morphin or
its derivatives.
C) Continued observation by a train
attendant.
az A stable preparation OF scopolanin.
G) Repetition of the minimal dose
which will keep the patient in the zone
of amnesia. that is, perception OF impress
sions but no memory.
(6) NATURALIZATION Of the patient In
order to maintain not absolute uncon-
seriousness of pain, but a drowsiness,
rousing during pain to exert muscular
contraction; but with no memory of the
anguish.
This Is a narrow zone and demands
a nicely of technic which forbids either

DR.. Hobson. Infinite patience and pains
