PARALYZED PHYSICIAN
\ HAPPY AND THANKFUL
DR.. Jim Keath, With Broken Back and
Legless, Enjoys His Turkey
Dinner

DR.. Jim" Keath, the lcgless, paralyEod
physician, sat up In bed In the Jefferson
Hospital today, and while eating his turkey
dinner told why he was thankful Tho
pluclty doctor fairly radiated optimism, as
fellow patients came into the room to wish
him happy holiday
"Thankful?" exclaimed the remarkable
young man. 81 am as happy as n school.
boy at Christmas time I'm happy first
of ALL because I'm just alive. I'm happy
because I'm able to see friends and enjoy
the sunshine, and that I'm not as unfor-
tunate as some of the people right In this
building"
Jim" Keath broke his back In 1914, and
since that time he has been paralyzed
Subsequent to the accident both legs were
amputated. In spite of the greatest phys
ical infirmties that ever handicapped a
student, he completed his course In med
icine and now holds a license to practice.
He spent all morning smoking cgarettes
It was n cigarette, he said, that enabled
him to withstand the pain when his legs
were amputated without the use of an
anesthetic. All morning he was In cheer
full mood. but 1t seemed that he almost
had to jump out of bed for joy when his
wife and little daughter appeared at the
door. AS the child ran to kiss him he
threw away the cigarette, and a moment
later was putting at another with as much
relish.

RETAIL PRICES OF FOOD
UP rs PER CENT IN YEAR

WASHINGTON, Nov, 30.-Oppostlon to
the embargo on food products proposed by
Representative Fitzgerald, of New York.
was expressed by Minority Leader Mann,
of Illinois, and Representative Borland
of Missouri, who made long though
unsuccessful fight at the last session OF
Congress for an investigation OF control of
meat prices by the so-called beef trust"
The Republican leader declared that an
embargo for regulation of prices would in
dicats a drift toward socialism for Gov
ernment regulation of food prices would
lead to Government regulation of many
other things, Only an embargo for retail
iatory purposes would be acceptable, he
said, and for that there is no apparent need
at this time.
Mr. Borland proposes to combat the high
prices of food by an investigation of the
alleged food trust" either by the Federal
Trade Commission or congressional COM
mittee. a resolution TO ne urged by Mr.,
Borland at the cunning session of Congress
will provide for an investigation of the cold
storage plants and the extent to which they
are used by spectators.
Retail prices of foods in the United States
as a whole advanced three per cent from
September 15 to October l5 making a six
teen per cent increase for twelve months
as shown in reports compiled by the
Bureau of Labor Statistics, The figures
came from 725 retail dealers in forty-flve
principal Industrial cities.
In the thirty days covered in the reports
meats declined in price from one to six per
cent but all other articles given, except
tea coffee and rice advanced from one per
cent for chickens TO six per cent for butter
bread and sugar, and eleven per cent for
Eggs.

MRS. NEW YORK HAPPY;
FOOD PRICES DECLINE

NEW YORK, Nov 3o.--Mllitant Mrs.
New York sat down to her Thanksgiving
dinner flushed with the success OF her first
real battle with the high cost of living.
Nearly every commodity which went into
the annual feast today was cheaper priced
because of her militancy,
Turkeys which week ago were selling
Mt forty-three to forty-hve and even fifty
cents pound. were quoted today at thirty
two to thirty-fve, and few were being taken
at that price. Tho long-trodden worm, the
ultimate consumer, has turned.
Eggs have dropped four cents n dozen in
the two days that the city-wide boycott has
been made in effect. and it Is probable there
will be further reduction before the two
week boycott has expired Wholesalers will
lose thousands of dollars as result of New
York's indifference as to whether 1t had tur-
key or chicken for its Thanksgiving dinner.
Many dealers will put their birds back into
cold storage and wait for the Christmas
trade, but this Is costly because of storage
charges and shrinkage
Restaurants have come to the aid of the
egg boycott. One Chambers street place
printed a menu which contained eggs boy
cotted" Other restaurants publicly dis
played signs advising patrons to abstain
from eggs.

prices.
Investigation of the entire question
of high prices either by the Federal
Trade Commission or special Joint
congressional committee which will
recommend legislation suggested by its
findings
That tho President and his Cabinet will
strongly favor the last suggestion Senators
and Representatives say Is foregone con-
cusion. The President has discussed the
high cost of living with his Cabinet ad-
visers. and he is taking deep interest in
the work Of the postofflce, commerce and
agriculture departments along this line
The embargo idea, besides having Repre-
sentative Fitzgerald, New York, to lead It,
will have the strong backing of many other
Congressman.
Representative JEFF McLemore said today
he would favor II, and that he had inter-
viewed or heard by mall from many others
who would do the same.
However, no food embargo will be estab-
lished without bitter Legislative fight.
