BOOZE BEST REMEDY
FOR FLU SAYS NOTED
BRITISH NAVAL MAN

That whiskey given in large doses
IS the best remedy yet discovered
Tor influenza was the opinion advan
ced by Rear Admiral Sir Humfrey
Dewey Rolleston, chief surgeon of the
British Navy and one of the most
eminent of European medical au
thorities.
This is the news brought back by
DR.. H. c. DeVighne, who returned
Yesterday from attendance at the
Convention of the American Medical
Association at New Orleans, La.
DR.. DeVighne said today that many
eminent men of the world lectured or
influenza. There were many theories
advanced as to the probable cause
of the epidemic but the doctor said
that frankly speaking not one of the
physicians could say that he had
solved the problem
Sir Rolleston read a very lengthy
PAPER on the treatment for influenza
and brought large arrays of figures
to support his contention that the
most successful treatment in the
British army and navy was the
alcohol treatment. The eminent sur
geon said: "The most satisfactory
treatment in England was: put the
patient in bed early, keep him hot
and quiet in well ventilated room
and keep his system full of whiskey.
Many other eminent men rec
commended alcohol in the treatment
for the disease and there were also
many who did not and thought that
just as good results could be OBJ
tanned from other stimulants.
Dr. DeVighne said that the Con-
vention was attended by $500 med
zeal men from all over the world
There were many interesting things
on the program He was the only
one in attendance from Alaska and
it was said the only one from the
North who had ever attended.
New Orleans was crowded with
people and hotel rates jumped from
50 so to $40 day. Many people were
unable to obtain rooms except in
private houses

moved by the action of the Republican
national convention
"Ou July 10 a convention called by
the committee Of forty-eight will meet

nate candidates for president and vice

"The country faces a grave emer-
genCy which the Republican cOnyen-

ignored most of the serious problems
and mentioned others only to reveal Its
unwillingness to face them honestly.
The Republican party has now driven
out of representation in It's councils

Roosevelt, Johnson and La Toilette.
The new party will represent these
voters and will present a definite and
constructive program.
"There will be representatives at the
new party convention of all sorts of
people. Farmers, wage earners, the
professional class, the salaried class
the business man and the Legitimate
investor; all people in short, who are
against special privilege.
The new party movement is taking
form rapidly. 1t IS already organized
In more than 30 states and it will be
prepared to put its electoral ticket on
the ballots In every state"
