The sentence of A. v. Ward, con-

court for stealing SIS from the post
office at Bombay, where he was en-
ployed, was amended by Federal
Judge William B. Sheppard yesterday
from 500 to $50, an amount which he
had already paid. The order of the
court cited the fact that it is believed
that the best interest of the public will

Judge Sheppard also issued orders
amending the sentences of Fred Smith

term of the court of Illicit distilling.

NEW BOARD EXPECTS
TO REPAIR Road

The bad condition Of the roads in
Escambia county has attracted much
comment recently particularly the
road to F1omaton and the stretch near
Cantonment. Several motor parties
traversing this strip of roadway yes
terday called attention to the almost
impossible condition.
The road to the navy yard is also
stated to badly in need Of repair and
many automobiles have been stuck in
trying to drive through the bad places.
Many complaints have been made by
the aviators and others who are COM
PEELED to use the road often and to
drive to and from the yard several
times daily.
1t 10 generally understood that the
reason for the poor condition of the
roads is the fact that the board of
county commissioners is without funds
for repairing the roads, and it is be-
lieved that the incoming board will
remedy the condition as soon as pos
sible.
Several of the newly elected COM
missioners have already stated their
intention of placing the roads in good
condition, and L. w. Hardy in par
ticular has been conducting an ex-
haustive investigation into the road
situation in Escambia county with a
view to remedying it as soon as the
new board is indicted into office. The
other commissioners are no less in
terested in remedying the condition.

LET'S EXPLoIT Ourselves

Exploitation!
You hear of it in the press. To a
great extent you can trace it in the
business world. 1t is most appalling
to think of. But what are you doing
to prevent it?
Every man who gets the bee in his
bonnet that he is going into business
does it knowing that he has to exploit
other people if he is going to make
better than the average success. Sta
tistics stare him in the face that only
5 per cent are successful and only
One-half of that per cent are per
manently successful, or one out of
two hundred. Some game sport he
is. He takes that chance with his
savings. Now that refers to the style
of competitive business.
If he were a wise man he would
gather a group Of consumers and say
to them: You buy the stock to run
this business and let me work for
you" The consumer would then pat
TOniZe his own interests in order to
protect the investment and the prof
its would revert to the spendeT. The
patronage would be guaranteed, no
necessity of advertising, no necessity
for employees OveTwOrking, for the
consumers do not believe in that.
The job would be safe for the hon
est employe, as business would not
fiuctuate and cause a lay-Off.
The profits are easily regulated.
The incentive is there for each per
son interested to do his best for all
All employed should be stockholders
to make the interests mutual. And,
to sum it all up, this group of people
exploit themselves in order to keep
from being exploited. And every bust
ness like this that sprung up would
only be one step more toward what
we are after: Abolition Of waste,

long as a drop of blood still flows, so
long as a hand draws the sword
After presenting many reasons why
the submarine might be considered
unamenable to existing law because it
is new, he declares that this view af-
ter all is untenable and insists that
the U-boat will have to continue to
operate under present statutes until
new ones are created after the war.
He complains on the one hand that
international law as it now stands is
full of holes" and too elastic" but
finds in these very facts justification
for male of the acts of submarines. In
support of his contention he quotes
many phrases which he terms vague,
and which, he says, are construed one
way in America, in another by Eng
land and in still third by Germany.
In this connection he takes a tilt at
american Jurisprudence.
About the middle of his brochure he
seems to despair of convincing Amer
ica that he is right and Americans
wrong, for he says:
ut is, l fear, easier for camel to
pass through the eye of a needle than
for a genuine American really to I'M
derstand a German, or even Dutch
man or Norwegian, when one of
them insists that, according to the
character of the war and the charac-
ter of international law governing
warfare, the true inwardness of the
legal basis or status of war changes"

(By Emory R. Park, M. d.

Scarlet fever is not a disease in
which merely the skin is involved,
but is a systemic malady. None of
the organs may be said to escape, and
the disease particularly affects the
heart and kidneys, and not infrequ-
emily leaves them permanently dis
eased. The throat and nose and ears
are likewise commonly involved and
these organs may also suffer perm
anent damage. After exposure to a
case there is lapse usually of from
two to seven days before symptoms
begin. However the onset may be
within twenty-four hours, or even as
late as three months after exposure
The symptoms usually come on sud
denly-fever, vomiting, rapid pulse,
and sore throat, followed shortly by
the appearance of the rash which be-
gins first on the neck and chest, and
rapidly spreads over the entire body.
The rash exists from three to seven
