troll When she regained conscious
ness at the hospital she gave her ad-
dress as 1119 Railroad avenue but
the police soon learned where she
lived and notified her parents.
Mrs. Smith visited her daughter at
the hospital this morning but said
because Of the burned condition of
her mouth and throat she was un-
able to explain TO her why she took
the iodine. Mrs. Smith told a rep
resentative Of The Evening Journal
this morning that Alice came home
from work yesterday morning and
said she wa sill. She remained in
the house she said until evening
when she said she was going out for
a walk. The next the mother knew
of her daughter was when the police
notified her that Alice was in the
hospital.
Mrs. Smith is Of the opinion that
Alice got the iodine from home, as
It was kept there for treating her
foot and the bottle OF iodine usually
in the medicine cabinet is missing.
Alice attended the public schools
for a time. Several years ago as
the result Of mosquito bite her
foot became infected which left her
partly a cripple and which is said
to cause her much suffering. She

moved from there TO the Physicians

morning suffering from iodine pois-
oning. Her condition is not re-
garded as serious.
Mrs. Giberson said she was
aroused shortly before o'clock by
Mr.. Atkinson. who said his wife had
swallowed iodine. and asked her 10
stay with her while he called a
physician.
DR.. NJ. y. Holman later directed
that Mrs. Atkinson be removed TO
the Physicians and Surgeans' Hos
pital.
Although Mrs. Atkinson IL too III
to explain why she drank the poison,
Il was believed she did so by mis-
take. She has been I'll for several
days and It is believed she thought
she was taking a dose OF medicine
from a bottle instead OF the poison.
Mrs. Atkinson came from England

country. They have one child. a

FOR CHORUS GIRL
Say Prohibition Killed
Parties, Dinners and
Other Things
WON'T STAND FOR
SALARY CUTS

NEW YORK-Two very import
ant things are happening now in the
rank and file OF that sparkling insti-
tution-the Broadway chorus girl
In the first place. the managers OF
several musical productions in the
last few weeks have attempted TO re-
duce salaries, II not all the way
down the line Of the ensemble. then
in certain spots where they believed
they could act without the move be-
coming generally known.
In at least three musical comedies
last week the entire choruses defied
the management and demanded that
their regular salaries be paid.
The other important activity is the
great increase in the number of
chorus girls-mostly "show girls OF
the tall. imposing Dolores type-who
are going abroad TO take their
chances in Partisan and London
plays
whats a girl to dor one asked
when questioned concerning the
troubles they are encountering. "The
managers want to cut our salaries
and there are no more parties. no
more dinners free, no more anything
that we don't buy ourselves. Since
prohibition came we have no elabor-
ate after-theatre parties and no ex-
pensive dinners The only thing
we are offered is homemade hooch
that no respectable person would
touch.
I'VE have TO hold out for ouI
rights or go to Paris, where liberty
means something. The Broadwa,
chorus girl is in for trouble II she
doesn't demand that her salary b'
left as IL is. It's silly TO think Z
girl can live decently on less thar

prescriptions of wines and liquors
which may be issued by physicians.
The bill provides for search and seiz-
ure, but provides a penalty for any
officer who searches a home without
a warrant and also provides a penalty
for any person who searches a home
with malicious intent while posing as
a prohibition officer. The bill also
extends the prohibition to the Virgin
Islands and other. possessions of the
United States.
Signature of the bill on which con-
gressional action was completed last
Friday automatically closed the gap
in the nations prohibition laws re-
vealed last March by Attorney General
Palmer in an opinion that there was
nothing in the Volstead act to pre-
clude the prescription of the beer as
medicine.
Prohibition advocates in congress
soon after publication of Mr.. Palmer's
ruling evolved the bill which in a
somewhat changed form was today
made a law of the land. Anti-prohi-
bitionists, principally in the senate
waged a determined fight with the re-
suit that final legislative action was
held off for several months.
Little Beer Made.
Treasury officials because of the
pending legislation, withheld issuance
beer possible until last month. Since
the regulations were issued, about half
a dozen brewers have obtained per-
mits to manufacture beer for medical
purposes, but owing to the numerous
changes made necessary in instruc-
tions to prohibition directors and other
officials, it is not believed that much
beer has been prescribed as medicine.
The bill signed today, in addition
to outlawinS medical beer provides
that not more than one-fourth gallon
CT Vinous liquor or vinous or spirit
uous liquors separately or in the ag-
gregate, containing more than one
half pint of alcohol may be prescribed
in ten days, that physicians shall be
limited to one hundred prescriptions
for such liquor in ninety days unless
extraordinary reason is presented;
that importation of spirituous or vim
Gus liquor is prohibited until the
amount on hand shall not be suffi-
cient to supply the current need for
non beverage uses; that private resi-
dences may not be searched without a
search warrant and that the court of
Hawaii and the Virgin Islands are
given jur' 1iction to enforce the ma
tional prohibition act.
