CITY CHILDREN ARE
FREE OF PARALYSIS

There is no infantile paralysis in
this city and we had only one case
last year" said Secretary Frantz Of
the Board OF Health. this morning.
but in view OF a number Of cases
that have made their appearance
in nearby cities. It is well to adopt
every measure OF prevention with a
view Of forestalling an outbreak Of
the disease here.
There is no cause for undue
alarm" said DR.. Frantz. "as this dis
ease generally appears toward the
end OF the summer and disappears
with the approach OF colder weather.
'Infantile paralysis is a communi-
cable disease and generally occurs
among children from s to 12 years
OF age. 1t is not as contagious as
smallpox or scarlet fever, but expert
ence shows that II has a tendency 10
spread in communities in which
cases are discovered. and to districts
more or less remote.
1T is important. therefore, that
parents rhould consult the family
physician on the first sign OF illness
among children, more especially
those under school age. Later cases
OF summer diarrhoea may stimulate
the early symptoms.

N. Y. Officer Slain at Post;
Pals SlUedr Vengeance
on Suspected Criminal

II was said at headquarters today
that Reuschle's life had been threat
ened recently by a criminal he had
been trying for sometime TO track.
The man had been operating in a
wealthy residential section on the
drive. Captain John Roth, IN com
mand OF the precinct, was said TO
have almost collapsed when he saw
the body Of the patrolman.
Il loved him as II he were my own
son." Captain Roth said choking.
He had been on the force fifteen
years. one Of my best men"
Reuschle's comrades at the station
vowed vengeance.
We're going TO get the man that
got Reuschle", one patrolman said
today. Police reserves made a
thorough search Of the district
around Inspiration Point" but fail
ed to report any trace Of the as
sailants.
Early today an automobiue party
consisting Of John Emerson, Helen
MacKellar. star Of Back Pay,

NEW YORK, Sept 2s. Omitted
Press) Dead at his post. his re-
volver containing four empty shells
still clutched in his hand. Patrolman
Joseph A. Reuschle was found lying
on Riverside Drive early today by
party of prominent New York
theatrical people. including John
Emerson, playwright. and Helen
MacKellar.
A bullet had pierced his heart.
A metal syringe about five inches
long was the only weapon save
Reuschle's gun found near the body
Examination Of this and OF the dead
policeman's eyes led the medical ex-
aminer to believe that he was first
blinded with poisonous liquid and
then shot.
The theory was held at police
headquarters today that Reuschle
was attempting to arrest a notorious
criminal near 169th street and River
side Drive and that the latter, pos
sibly aided by confederates, blinded
the patrolman and then calmly shot
him through the heart while be
blazed away helplessly with his SER
vice revolver.
The fact that only one shot was
required to kill Reuschle confirmed
the police in this belief.
Reserves were called out when the
finding Of Reuschle's body was an
nounced. the district was searched
and the body was rushed TO Colum-
bus Hospital. Life had been extinct
for some time.

z. !. dupont de Nemours and

modifying present methods OF con-

ments, to meet the requirements OF
the diversified interests developed
during recent years.
During the war the dupont Com

rectly related TO war work and
others allied to its normal business
in times OF peace. While the war

most OF its attention TO war business
and Il was only after the close OF
the war that It was possible TO de-
vote full attention to the rehnements
Of the new industries. some OF which
had, in the meantime, grown con-
siderably.
Careful study OF its own organ
