SEIZE SOCIAL EVIL CURES.
Department of Agriculture Warns
AGAINST Use of Quack Remedies.

Washington, Aug. 29.-Four hundred
and fifty seizures OF so-called REM
edies for social diseases have been
made recently under the food and drug
act by federal officials who have in :
augurated a campaign TO suppress this
variety of "quack" medicine. In max
ing this announcement today the
bureau Of chemistry Of the depart
ment of agriculture issued a general
warning that use Of such remedies
was extremely dangerous and likely to
lead to a long period Of suffering.
The goods seized include great
variety of compounds said the bu-
reau's announcement. Some of the
labels bear the claim Of the manufac-
turer that the contents are sure cures.
Some even contain statements that
cures will be effected within definite
periods.
I'm all the seizure actions the gov
eminent alleged the preparations TO be
falsely and fraudulently labeled. Such
preparations are sold largely because
Of plausible but false claims regard
ing their curative effect. Many suffer-
ers are led to believe that cures will be
effected by these preparations, and
adequate treatment under competent
medical supervision is neglected I'M
TIL permanent injury to health and
even danger to life has resulted"

State Republican
Leader i'm Jersey
Is Out for Wood
Former Governor Stokes
SaysHe WillWork 10 Have
Delegates Instructed to
Support General in 1920

TRENTON, Dec. l6.-Former Gov
ernor Edward Casper Stokes, Republi-
can state chairman, came out to-day in
favor Of Major General Leonard Wood
for the Republican Presidential nom
inaton and declared he would work
for the election of twenty-eight dele
gates from New Jersey pledged TO vote
for Wood at the Republican national
convention.
Mr. Stokes's statement is taken to in
dictate that he will continue as state
chairman until after the idential
primary, April p. Following the de
feat of Newton A. X. Bugbee. Repub-
lican candidate for Governor, last No
vember, he had intimated that he might
shortly resign the post
The former Governors declaration
for Wood WAS contained in a letter
sent to each state committeeman, to
United States Senators Frelinghuysen
and Edge, the Republican representa-
! tives from New Jersey and the TWENTY
one Republican county chairmcn.
He said that, in addition to being
pledged to Wood, the delegates elected
should be- men "of proper character
and experience" and who are "on the
rlght Slde OF the great questions of the
day"
Mr. Stokes made known that he
would call meeting of the state
committeeman and county chairmen tc
discuss the situation as regards can
didates for delegates.
ut would seem to be quite early tc
decide this very important question,
he added. when it is decided it
ought to be decided by the whole party
body so far as practicable. and this
can best be done, perhaps, through
the men who know and represent the
sentiments of their respective com.
munities.''
1t has been known for some time
that the hackers Of Hiram W. Johnson
OF California. were organizing to make
night for the New Jersey delegates
so that Mr.. Stokes's declaration fol
Wood is construed as presagng a tighr
