form, so that when applied to the
body, the ingredients are vaporized
by the body heat.
These vapors are inhaled with each

the lungs, carrying the medication dt-

NATCHEZ, Miss, Feb. 16.-An ur- gent appeal for help received here to- night from Newellton La, where the Mississippi levee broke yesterday, said that a thousand or more persons were marooned by the flood waters with only a motor boat available to take them to safety. Three negroes had been drowned, it was said, and out side the town itself about 75,000 acres of farm land was inundated
 The government steamer La Fourche left here tonight with a number of small boats and rescue crews. Re ports indicated that the gap in the levee at Newellton had widened to about 1000 feet.
 NJ. Jacoby, a Newellton merchant, telephoned from the flooded town to- night that the need of help was i'm perative.
 We are in desperate condition, ,' MT. Jacoby said. Water ranges from six inches to six feet in Newellton and there is only one motorboat available to rescue a thousand or more persons marooned on the opposite side of Lake St. Joseph"

 IF WIRELESS CENSORSHIP

The announcement was made short ly after Count von Bernstorff, the German ambassador, had asked the state department for an explanation of why the American naval censors at Sayville, N. Y, had rejected wireless dispatches from Berlin containing of ficlal announcements from the ad- miralty, which the British censors had passed for publication in England.
 MT. Daniels explained that censors had acted under the existing regula- uons, drafted by a board of naval of flcers after an exhaustive study of the question of radio censorship, and prohibiting the transmission into this country of any message referring to
 movements or locations of war or other vessels of the belligerents" The opJect of the regulation, he said, was 10 prevent violations of neutrality bys the admission of dispatches contain ing information of military value Which might be used by agents of a belligerent nation in this country.
 In cases of the information coming officially from a foreign government and also printed in the territory of an enemy country, the secretary said he believed the prohibition could be removed The subject will be called to the attention of the naval board tomorrow.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.-Commit- to between 160, 900 and 200, 900 men and proposing a definite scheme for feder alization of the national guard under the militia pay act, probably will be before both houses of congress within three weeks. A building program for the navy, however will not be ready before May, although Chairman Pad gett, of the house committee, urged the members today to speed up examina- l ton of witnesses.
 1 The house military committee will begin work tomorrow on the military Liberalization bill and if a strong measure is produced, influential mem- bers of the senate committee say it will be accepted by the senate The senate committee continued work to- day on it's bill for the regular army in crease. It is understood number of ! items. such as provision for better manning of the coast defenses upon which there is no disagreement, have been written into the new bill, leaving only the points on which there is diff ference of opinion to be worked out. Major General Carter, retired, and of ficers from the war college of the army are aiding in drafting the measure
 The house ways and means commit tee, to which will be allotted the task Of finding money to meet increase mil itary and naval expenditures, has taken no steps as yet. The increases needed have not been estimated and it IS said the committee will not attempt to lay plan for financing the expendi- lures, until these estimates are forth coming.
 It now is understood that leadership Tn the preparedness fight in the house will rest with the two committee chair men, Representative Hay of the mili- tary committee and Representative Padgett of the navy committee. There has been some talk since Speaker Clark | has come out strongly for prepared , ness that he would engineer the whole matter. It was stated positively, to- night, however, that while the speak CTS aid was counted upon, the com mittee chiefs would lead their own forces
 The naval committee struggled again today with the problem of submarines Rear Admiral Grant outlined further his plan to establish submarine shore bases along the coasts and repeated his statement that 183 underwater boats with thirty reserve craft were needed He said American submarine builders public and private, could produce AS of the 800 ton boats he recommends 1 within twelve months.
 Representative Galloway questioned the admiral as to the relative strength of the American navy among those of the world.

R. C. Fucker, assistant surgeon gen eral of the public health service, and George w. Mccoy, former director of the government leper asylum at Mo- lokai. John Early, leper now in isolation near Washington, advocated the bill in a letter which the senators handled gingerly, even though it had been well disinfected.
 Dr. Mccoy, reviewing his extensive research work on the subject, told the committee that not more than five per cent of the people generally were susceptible to leprosy.
 Tt is a disease of young persons, " he continued, developing chiefly be- tween the ages of 15 and 30 years and an inexplicable feature is that wherever it has been found, it exists exactly in the ratio of two males to one female. The period of develop ment after exposure ranges from two to thirty years, and living in a com munity of lepers is often sufficient exposure"
 Dr. Mccoy said his investigation had demonstrated that leprosy was not a blood disease and was not hereditary. but that no one ever had established definitely how the germ was transmitted.

Turkeys Chief City In Ar menia In Hands of Rus sians After Heavy As saults Against Forts Lasting Five Days
STORMS HINDER
 WESTERN FIGHTING
With Advent of Stormy Weather Heavy Fighting On Western Battle Line Has Simmered Down to Artillery Bombardments
IRepublicar A. p. Leased Wirel

ErZerum, Turkeys chief city in Ar mcnia. is in the hands of the Russians. Heavy assaults by the Russians pl otecting the city, lasting over a pe- riod of five days and described by Grand Duke Nicholas, the Russian commander in chief, as ''unprecedent- ed" have resulted in the capture of the fortress.
 Unofficial reports early in the pres ent month said the German Field Mar shal von Der Goltz, with S0O00 men, were besieged in the city with pro- visions for only a fortnight.
 The capture of Erzerum is consid- cred of great strategic importance From it radiates roads leading in all directions. over those to the south east and south it will be possible for the Russians now to fight their way toward their compatriOts operating against the Persians and Turks in northwest and west Persia, or proceed south toward Bagdad to the relief of the British bottled up at Kut- Fl Anna ra on the Tigris, southeast of Bagdad The immediate effect of the Russian victory on the situation in Persia and
 MesopOtamia is problematical, however, for despite the roads, the country is mountainous and there is still much ground to be covered-something over 200 miles before the lake Urumiah dis trict of Persia is reached, and over 500
 miles before a junction with the Brit ish at Kut-El -Amara could be formed With the advent of stormy weather on the western battle line the heavy fighting of the last few days seem ingly has simmered down again to ar tillery bombardments and mining op- eratiOns. Berlin reports, however, that
 the British and French have endeaV - ored to recapture trench positions talk
 en from them by the Germans, re-
 srectively southeast of Ypres and in : Champagn near Tahura, but that the
 attacks failed Paris asserts on the
 contrary that ne;>T Tahura the French
 have retaken portions of their former
 trenches.
 The British and Germans are still at
 deadly grips for possession of the
 trenches captured from the British southeast of Ypres, artillery and hand grenades being employed in the fight i ing London reports that in the at tack in which the British lost 600 yards of a front line trench the Ger mans attacked over a front of 4,000 yards but were everywhere repulsed 1 with considerable losses except at the ! point the trench was captured.
 1 On the Russian front a driving
 snowstorm along the entire line has almost stopped operations. The usual
