you must be treated at all if you do
not want to be?
Has any doctor the right TO lacerate
your body without your consent?
Does it pay to take chances Of
having some constitutional disease in
troduced rather than taking chances
of smallpox?
Does ii look reasonable that by in
PRODUCING pus into a normal person
to create more pus is a beneficial way
to offset disease?
Study upon the above questions
and make your decision.
An elderly physician in Kansas City
made this statement:
An Abominablc Practice
81 believe that vaccination is the
most abominable practice that is
carried out today"
He also said that he thought that
he had as much experience as most
doctors. He had passed through an
epidemic of smallpox in New York
in the early '6Os when just out of
college. lie had been in the southern
countries where the disease was prev
alent and had waited upon three or
four hundred cases with assistants)
at a time, and the ones who were
vaccinated had smallpox and he be-
lieved as many of them died as did
those who were not vaccinated. This
information was gained from actual
experience and not from theory. II
should be worth something. / know
of cases where the patient had not
and may never recover from the ef-
fects OF vaccination. So do you.
Now is it the right thing TO allow
doctors to go into a school room and
by force Gas is done) cause persons
to submit to having a poison injected
into their system that may leave them
unhealthy the remainder of their
lives? The chance of their taking
smallpox is away yonder in the i'm
agination.
The Percentage Negligible
The per cent of the smallpox pa
tients in the city in the last five years
to the number of people is so small
that it is difficult to figure. The
death rate is still less.
With proper care and surround
ings the death rate is not great.
There are other diseases which are
worse. / have seen cases where the
patient suffered more from the ef-
| fects of vaccination than with small
pox. 1 believe in preventing contag-
ious diseases as much as any one, but
do not believe in scattering other and
worse diseases when trying to prevent
one. l do not believe the law would
hold if tested, and if it did it should
be repealed in justice TO the majority
of people who do not realize the i'll
effects of it.
Let the health board quarantine in
fectious and contagious persons, and
let those who desire be vaccinated
but remove the compulsory part OF
the law, as 1t has been repealed in
France and England. and many other
countries where vaccination was first
tested out and found wanting.

WAR SUPPLIES FOR UKRALNIA
 GIVE TROUBLE

PARIS, Aug. 19 (by Associated Press).-A job lot of American war stocks sold to Ukrainian co-opera- tive society last spring for $6,0O0,000 and later taken back by the American authorities, has caused the French war department almost as much trouble as the liquidation of the remainder which sold for $S5O,O00,000.
 One part of the stocks is today warehoused at Langres, France, where the French courts have undertaken to determine their actual ownership.
 Another part is warehoused at Mar seilles in the name of the Ukrainian society and cannot be touched by the American authorities although up to this time any disposal or departure of the stocks has been prevented.
 The larger part of the stocks ware housed at Bordeaux, was ransacked by the Ukrainians for choice bits and later by thieves but the remainder has just been recovered by the Amer ican authorities and sold to the Jugo- Slav and Czecho-Slovakian govern ments.
 The only boat that managed to sail with cargo of the stocks was turned back in May by an American destroy CT after it had left Constantinople and the cargo was later disposed of there, little money remaining after the freight charges had been paid to the Ukrainians.
 The stocks, consisting largely ot clothing and medicines were sold on the understanding that they would be used for the commission which was then in France and accepted in pay ment of notes guaranteed by the Ukrainian government of that period. Some months afterward it was discov- cred that the agents of the co-opera- tive society were peddling the stocks about France and the commission de- cided to take them over.

TWO PROJECTS ARE LOOMING UP STRONG
 FOR BUSY KETCHIKAN

Ketchikan has two big projects promised which, if they materialize may forge that enterprizing section to the front until the population reaches twenty thousand. First is the production of a ferry car via Prince Rupert over the Grand Trunk railroad, and the second is the de- yelopment of Thorne Arm water power to furnish electrical power for pulp mills to be located on the channel at Ketchikan. If the ferry system is established all American fish. ore and lumber will be loaded aboard cars in the Ketchikan rail- read yards.
 At Prince Rupert the Grand Trunk has installed a car ferry service for service with a similar slip at Swan son bay, where the Whalen Pulp Company is operating on a large seal ann Last winter engineers repre- senting the Grand Trunk in Ketchi- kan were making surveys of the water front to ascertain area for a ferry landing and railroad yards.
 The TangassAlaska Pulp & Paper company has locatedsites at Carol inlet and, Thorne arm, adjacent to Ketchikan. It is planned to build a reservoir to store water from Big Lake, Third lake and Mirror lake, The hydro-e1ectric plant would be constructed at Carol inlet and car ried by transmission wires to Ketchi- kan.
