Secure Freedom of Preserip-
ton Blanks.

Chicago.-The American Protective
Medical Fraternity was launched at a
meeting of Chicago physicians, to dis
cuss the restrictions on liquor preserip-

director.
One Of the objects OF the fraternity
Is ito secure for the physicians an un-
limited number of prescription blanks"
Among the other expressed objects
are TO cooperate with the prohibition
authorities In upholding the eighteenth
amendment and assist In enforcing the
Volstead act.
A committee Of five physicians was
named to draft rules and bylaws. 1t
was headed by DIR. +. w. Scott, who
was chief medical officer In charge Of
emergency influenza hopsltals. Wash
lngt0n, during the war.
DR.. Scott said the physicians them
selves should be the ones to decide
the number Of blanks needed. Chicago
physicians now are allowed 200 blanks
every three months by the prohibition
director.

Department Of Labor Acts on Com
plant That Postmaster Threat
ened to Discharge Workers.

Observation-Disclosures were tele-
graphed by the department of labor
to Oscar II. Nelson, cOnciliator at the
departments Chicago office, directing
him to proceed at once TO St. Louis
for the purpose of acting in his official
capacity in connection with the alleged
threat of Postmaster Selph to dis
charge 300 postal employees because
they elected Carl z. Freeman, for
mer clerk in that office, as president
of their local union.
The assignment of a conciliator by
the department of labor was in re-
Spouse to a letter from the White
House, requesting that Secretary of
Labor Wilson send man there. The
letter was signed by Joseph p. Tu-
multy. as secretary to the President.
Thomas f. Flaherty, secretary-treas-
urer of the National Federation Of
Post Office Clerks, sent a letter to
President Wilson, asking him to have
conciliator sent by the labor depart
ment Flaherty said it would be use
less to send post office inspector, "as
they are under the domination Of Bur
leson."
The labor department acted on the
request from the White House without
consulting the post office department,
but because the subject Is interdepart-
mental in its nature, it was stated at
the labor department that the post Of
flee department will be communicated
with Immediately. II was understood
by the labor department that Flaherty
desired to have II. b. Mahany, the
regular interdepartmental concillator,
sent TO st. Louis, but a telegram sent
out stated that Mahany could not leave
Washington at this time. Nelson will
be sent instead.

C. o. p. NOMINEE DEMANDS cox
PROVE CHARGE.
SIS, ooo, 900 Campaign Pool and Extrav-
aoance Are Branded as Abso-
lutely False.

Marion, O.-GOvernor Cox's charges
Of a Republican campaign fund Of
$15,000,000 was characterized by Sen
ator Harding as absolutely untrue"
and perfectly ridiculous"
Declaring he seconded cordially the
challenge of Republican National Com
mittee Chairman Hays to the Demo
cratic nominee to produce evidence of
excessive Republican contributions,
Harding said he was not fearful Of the
results of any investigation of the
party treasury.
ave court the fullest understanding
of our funds in every respect" said the
Republican nominee, In commenting on
Governor Cox's speech. "Not only are
statements Of excessive expenditures
absolutely untrue, but, as a matter of
fact, we are having difficulty In pro-
ducing the funds we legitimately need
to conduct the campaign as 1t should
be conducted. Stories Of a $15,000,000
fund are perfectly ridiculous"
Senator Harding added that the
wave of advancing costs and the en-
reimbursement of women had raised
the legitimate financial requirements
of a national campaign, but he de-
clared his party's money chest con-
tanned nothing like" the total named
by his Democratic opponent. Asked
whether any Of the money raised by
the national committee before the con-
vention at Chicago would be used in
the campaign, he said 1t all had been
expended by convention time, and that
in making its arrangements at Chicago
the party treasury had been compelled
to borrow something like a quarter
of a million dollars"

terests In the East 81. Louis and
other stock yards of the country. In
accordance with the terms of dissolu-
ton agreed upon between them and
Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer
following the suit he instituted against
them.
An extension of time for divorce
ment of their interest called for was
arranged here after an extensive con-
ference between representatives of
the packers and the department of jus
tice. Had this extension not been
arranged the packers would have been
compelled to give up their interests
now.
At the conference here the packers
presented a plan Of dissolution, but Ii
was so long and involved that attor.
neys Of the department of justice
wanted time TO consider II before Civ
Ing approval. Consequently II was
decided to give the time of executing
the dissolution until August 81 TO give
time for consideration. An order to
this effect was entered by the depart
ment Of justice In the United States
supreme court.
Officials Of the department said that
to make public now the plan. submit
ted would embarrass both the govern
ment and The packers. therefore il will
be kept a secret until acted upon.
