sold his 500 retail pharmacies to an
American syndicate, began life as the
son of farm laborer. Not content
with the small wage he earned as a
farm laborer, Sir Hesse's father op-

son, ATTRACTED by the business" de-
cided that the public wanted such
stores, provided they were conducted
in an up-to-date manner. So he op

and from that humble beginning there
developed the greatest concern of its
kind in the world, with hundreds of

JAPAN FACES SERIOUS
PROBLEM OF FOOD SUPPLY
(By Associated Press.)


Toxic, Aug. 5.-The gravity Of the
food question in Europe finds its echo
In Japan where the problem Of how to
feed the population, which Is increas-
ing annually by 100000, is becoming
yearly more pressing.
Japan has ample living space for
lts reople but cannot produce enough
food for them, especially rice. Every
bit Of land Is cultivated to the limit
Of Its capacity. The land of Formosa,
the island colony, is worked to its
full capacity by the two million Chi
nese farmers who cultivate the rics
fields with great skill. In Korea, aso,
the grain harvest is considerable,
though the failure OF the Koreans to
use fertilizer prevents greater harry
ests.
To meet the food menace, Japan, by
special arrangement with France, Is
making heavy rice imports from Indo-
China. This is a costly operation, how
ever, the japanese government losing
$40, 10000 last year in supplying In
do-China rice to the Japanese people
at moderate price.

struction. The new railroad is to form

LAKE COUNTY TO FROWN
on LAND INDICATING

Taveres, Aug. 5.-The directors oi
the Lake County Chamber of Com
merce, at their monthly meeting
passed a strong resolution condemn
ing mail order land wild eating in
this state. Many promoters, encour
aged by the rapid development Of the
county have appropriated wild lands
of little value, it is said, and are pro
noting its sale by blue prints and pic
lures, offering 1t for a small amount
down and the balance on long pay
ments. The Chamber of Commerce
takes the ground that the best inter
ests of the county can be conserved
only by insisting upon open and legit

CITIES CAN'T STOP
STREET MEETINGS
SAYS HIGH COURT

Tallahassee, Aug. 5.-A twon ordi-
nance forbidding public meetings on
the streets or public parks Of a city
without permit from a designated
officer, in invalid and can not be en-
forced, according to a decision hand
ed down by Judge Ellis and concurred
in by the other members of the su.
preme court, in the habeas corpus
proceeding Of G. T. Anderson VS. O..
w. Bedford, marshal Of Panama City.
Anderson, it is alleged, was arrest
ed for conducting religious services
on one Of the streets Of Panama City
contrary to an ordinance. He was
convicted and imprisoned, and brought
his proceeding to test the legality Of
the ordinance.
The court holds that public meet
ings upon the streets or parks Of the
city are not necessarily productive Of
disorder nor are they 50 likely to
produce danger as to be per Sc pro-
ducers of public disturbances, nor
may they be said to be per Sc nuis-
ances. 1t is held that neither the
charter of the town of Panama City
nor the general laws Of the state re
lating to cities and towns gives to
that municipality any special right to
enact the ordinance in question and
it is only when meetings political, re-
ligious, social or Of other character
create public disturbances or operate
as nuisances, threaten some tangible
public or private mischief, prevent
the passage of persons to and fro, OBJ
struct traffic or prevent the free use
of streets to the public, that they may
be restrained under charter provisions
similar to that of Panama City.
