Attaaked by Fox

The sstorxsThieh has started the theory, of s1oxsa with rabies comes from Danbury, and is vouched for by Commissioner of Domestic Animals James M. Whittleseyj who declares that he believes 1t. The story opens on a dark night in Danbury; about a week or so ago., A dog was sleeping peacefully in its kennel when sud denly a fox entered the kennel and set upon the dog. "A man by the name of Williams, the owner of the dog. told MT. Whittlesey that the noise of the combat drew him out ,ot his house and that he saw the con c1usion of the engagement. Although the dog fought valiantIy and we'll, the fox. had gained a big advantage by catching it's enemy mapping. and it chewed up the dog badly Then 1t disappeared. Sos badly wounded was the dog that it died.within few days. MT. Williams sent it's. head to the state laboratory for examination. A re- port came back that the dog had a clear case of rabies. The. theory is that the fox which fought with the dog was rabidstand transmitted the disease to the dog.

Phoenix, Arlz., Sept. 28-Mem-
bers of the Arizona Council of De-
fense in cooperation with the
National Council of Defense are ex-
erting their influence to secure the
early adoption in both houses of
Congress of the bill introduced
there to protect soldiers and sailors
in their civil rights.
In the Judgment of the War and
Navy Department immediate pas
sage of this bill is vital to the pro-
lection of those who are now being
called into military service at can
tonements and in due time will be
called still farther from their
homes. The bill is designed to
protect the defenders of this coun-
trv from harassment and unjust
litigation while they are absent on
war duty.
The bill provides for the arrest
of creditor suits, the stay of judg-
ment by default, stay of execution
where Judgment has been granted
agaisst fighting men, lifting of the
statute of limitations so that debts
owed to men in the service would
not become outlawed, protection
of fighters family from eviction,
protection of the absent mans in
terest in real estate or other pur-
chase contracts including life insur-
ance, protection against the sale of
a soldiers or sailors property for
unpaid taxes.
The Arizona Defense Council
takes the position that there should
be no opposition to the principle
which this bill embodies and that
no decent man or woman and that
no corporation would seek to deal
hard with man or the family of a
man who is under arms in the nat
ional defense.

The American soldiers in

probably destined to "stick'
