Scheidemann Speaks
For Peace Programme

In speaking on the Socialist inter
pellation. Philip Scheidemann, Social
ist member and former e-president
/ Of the Reichstag. defended the Social
ist peace programme OF remuneration,
and gave the Chancellor'S baiters one
of his typical grillings.
A motion to end the debate was
lost. after which the middle road
parties made up OF the Centrists, Ma
tional Liberals. Progressive People
Party and German fraction. presented a
'oint declaration approving the Chan
eellor's attitude.
Scheidemann, in introducing the So
cial Democratic Interpolation, said:
THE party's decision does not de
mand immediate peace. but action by
the Socialists of all countries. My

NEW ANTISEPTIC FLUID HARMLESS
 TO BODY TISSUES

LONDON.-What medical men re- gard as one of the most important dis coveries in the history of medinice has just been announced here. It is an anti septic destructive of bacteria while quite harmless to the tissues of the body.
 The new antiseptic has been named flavine and is closely related in origin to substances used in dyeing leather brown.
 The harmful effects of old antiScp- tics on the tissues forced the develop ment of aseptic surgery, in which everything intended to be brought into contact with the living body is first rendered germ-free by boiling or by some antispetic. The use of the new antiseptic will render surgery much simpler and safer, it is said here.

THE HELP QUESTION

without 1 doubt idle people are
hard To Ind, not only in this locali-
ty but all over the country. Taking
away thousands Of young men from
the farms and cities has SO depleted
the numbers Of available young men
and added SO much extra work that
in some instances crops are going to
waste because Of this condition. Right
here in our own midst a plea for help
has been made for people to work in
the canning factory to save the toma-
to crop, but so far not enough people
have been found. With such condi-
tion existing It IL contributing to a
food famine. A complete famine may
not come but II such condition ex-
lists all over the country as exists
here there Is every reason to be-
licve that a famine might come.
The federal government has taken
over 1s per cent Of all the tomatoes
to be canned by the factory in this
county and in every other factory
all over the country, yet thousands Of
pounds Of tomatoes are going to
waste. Twelve per cent Of the beans
canned were taken over by the GO
