 Combat the film
 Your teeth are coated with viseous film. You can feel it now. It clings to teeth, enters crevices and stays No ordinary tooth paste can effectively combat it.
 Film absorbs stains, making the teeth look dingy. It then forms cloudy coats. Tartar is based on film. It holds food substance which ferments and forms acid It holds the acid in contact with the teeth to cause decay.
 Germs breed by millions in it They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea- All of these troubles were constantly increasing under old brushing methods.
 Then this came
 Dental science then began search for film eombatants Eventually two were found One acts to curdle film, one to remove it, and with out any harmful securing.
 Able authorities proved these methods effes- tive. Then dentists everywhere began to advise their use.

LIQUOR WAS SEIZED WHEN
 BooTLEGGERs QUARRELED

New York, April s.-A bootleggers' quarrel in a West Side garage today in which severa shots were fired, brought police reserves to the place where they confiscated S6,0o0 quarts of wine whiskey and brandy.
 Crows attracted by the raid, attempt ed to rush the garage when the quanti- ty of the lequor became known, break ing, windows and throwing the neigh borhood into disorder until dispersed by police with drawn clubs.
 Before enough policemen could reach the scene to control the mob several attempts were made to take cases of liquor through the broken windows in the rear of the garage.
 It required ten hours to remove the cases of liquor in patrol wagons and motor trucks to the West Thirteenth street police station, where they were stacked on the main floor. Policemen with drawn revolvers rode on each Te- hicle. after a rumor was spread that bootIeggers would attack the liquor laden trucks and recover the seized con traband

common engagement to abstain from aggression on their neighbors.
 Regarding Russia, the resolution con- clu6es:
 If the Russian government claims of ficial recognition in order to assure de- velopment of it's commerce, the allied powers can accord the same only upon acceptance of the foregoing stipula- tions''
 It was Russia and the question of her participation in the Genoa meeting which played an important part in Premier Briands sudden decision to re- turn to Paris and lay the Cannes de- Alterations before the chamber of deputies in the hope of receiving vote of conf dence. After a lengthy and eloquent speech, he suddenly announced his res ignation and was succeeded by Premier Poincare, who formed a new cabinet
 France was iatly against permitting Russia to enter t7le Genoa conference without the imposition of advance re- strictions on the subjects the bolsheviki would be allowed to introducewhile Eng land was willing that Russia should par ticipate without restrictions other than were mentioned in the resolution ss ap- plying to all nations.
 Prime Minister Lloyd George also ex- perienced something of a flare back from British political leaders, with the Gen ca conference and it's Russian ques- ton entering into the difficulty.
 The prime minister's desire to carry through the Cannes programme precipl- tated a virtual crisis in his coalition government, following which he went be- fore the house of commons for vote of confidence on the subject
 Another interesting phase of the Genoa deliberations if treaties and political subjects are permitted upon the agenda, concerns the Baltic and Balkan states embracing Poland, Esthonia, Latvia, Rumania, Jugoslavia and Czechoslova- kia, all of whim will have delegates at the conference.
 Of these nations, Finland, Latvia and Esthonia already have an alliance with Poland while Jugoslavia Csechoslovakia and Rumaia, comprising the Little En- tente are on friendly terms with her. Llcyd George. 1t is understood, Is anxious to further strengthen these friendly relations and at the same time minimize the dangers of future wars in the Balkans by securing at Genoa a. treaty of peace with Russia on the one hand and Poland. with her allies and the Little Entente on the other.
 Should such a treaty develop from the conference, 1t would affect the peace of more than 10o.00o,00o nationals.

CONGRESSIONAL ELECTION TO BE
 WET" AND DRY" CONTEST

Corning, N. Y, April 9.-A vote of about TO per cent. of normal was pre- dicted by political leaders tonight for the special election in the 37th con- gressional district on Tuesday to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Congressman Alanson B. Houghton, new Unit9d States ambassador to Berlin.
 Both "wets" and 'drys" have covered every section of the district with pro- paganda in behalf of their respective candidates, Judge Frank Irvine, of Itha- ca, democratic candidate, who has de- clared against the Volstead law and Lewis Henry of Eln:iras republican can didate, who sands for prohibition.
 Clergymen and temperance orgahiza- tions are working actively in behalf of Henry. They declare that even a re- duced republican majority in the dis trict will be interpreted as repudiation of national prohibition and they are urg- ing the voters who favor prohibition to line up behind ahe reHublican fcan,1i- date without regard to party aciliations. The opponents of prohibition are no less alert to the possibilities of making cap ital out of a republican reverse and they have been campaigning vigorously par ticularly in the cities.
 In a statement tonight, Judge Irvine, the democratic candidate. reiterated his opposition to the Volstead act. He made this statement, he said because ex- treme advocates of prohibition had gar bled and misrepresented his speech of acceptance explaining his position.
 In his statement Judge Irvine assault ed the Volstead law as clear violation, in it's search and seizure provisions, of the fourth amendment to the constitu- tion," and said it stamped itself as false and oppressive.
 T am opposed to national prohibi- ton amendment, first, because perman- ent national liquor law in many commu- mites will prove unenforceable for lack of local public sympathy; second, be- cause attempted enforcement will re- quire an enormous force of federal po- lioemen and detectives, giving undue power to partisan subordinate of the national administration, and third, be cause it means an unwise strucEural change in the relations between the peo- pie of the states and the central gov ernment and a strain on the integrity of the union"

DOZEN MASKED MEN HELD
 UP CLUB IN WEST HAVEN

New Haven. April "A dozen men. armed and masked, held up the Orange Dramatic club in West Haven early this morning and obtained between s2.oO0 and $3.O0O in cash One of the alleged rob bers. Salvatore Santonielle of Springfield. Mass, was captured, but the others es- capped.
 The bandits entered the club through the front door, pushing in behind a mem- Der who had unlocked it. Some of the robbers rushed upstairs, where several card games were said to have been in progress, while others remained on the first floor and compelled members to throw up their hands. No jewelry was taken, the police were told. but the rob bers carried out a systematic search for money. One by one those in the club were taken into a room on the second floor and their pockets searched at the into a leather bag held by one of the bandits.
 Part of the hoi@-up men left the club. four remaining with guns in hand. These threatened 10 "come back and kill come body" if an outcry was made in fifteen minutes. At this point two shots sounded ed from the street and the robbers fled. Two club members, it was said. were in the basement when the hold-up men ar rived and they got out through a win dow and looked for a policeman. Officer Sylvester Burns and several 1remen from a nearby firehouse arrived at the club few minutes later and they were fired upon by fleeing bandit.
 Most of the robbers got away in an au- tomobile. Policeman Burns and two fire men captured Santonielle. A pistol which he threw away in the chase was recov- cred. A second automobile, with a Mas sachusetts marker Ilwas found near by and seized by the police. A handkerchief was fastened over the rear marker. A bill of sale for this automobile was found in Santonielle's clothing. The West Ha- ven police locked him up on a charge of highway robbery.
 One man was injured in the hoid-up. A taxicaib driver who was in the club was hit on the head with the butt of 9 revolver when he remonstrated with the robbers.

GRANTING OF DEMANDS WOULD
 INCREASE COST OF COAL $S TON

New York, April 9.-Samuel D. War riner, president of the Lehigh Valley Coal and Navigation company, and spokesman for the anthracite mine operators, issued statement tonight in which he declared that accession to the wage demands of the miners now out on strike, would re- suit in an increase of $3 per ton in the cost of coal to consumers.
 MT. Warriner's statement, made public
 in connection with the resumption Tues day of conferences of the miners and operators sub committee on wage con tract negotiations. forecast the attitude the owners will take in presenting their formal answer to the nineteen demands of the men. outlined at previous sessions.
 Anthracite producers see no reason to change the opinion expressed at the opening of these conferences, said MT. Warriner, namely, that conditions de- mand substantial reduction in the price
 of hard coal. We desire to pay good wages. But the rate of pay is not so i'm portant as regularity of employment.
 'The problem to be solved is what scale of wages will permit the production
 of anthracite at a price the consumer is willing to pay. For, as shown, if the price is too high, consumption declines, and the result is irregular employment
 and dissatisfaction all around"
 Declaring that the miners demands would all result in less production and more compensation. MT. Warriner said
 an analysis showed that, if granted, they would add approximately $1T0,0O0,- 900 to the annual cost of producing 53,- 000, 900 tons of domestic sizes of coal This would mean an added cost of more l than $3 per ton to the consumer, he said The hourly wage scale of the miners l has increased 162 per cent. between 1914 and 1921, the mine official asserted. He gave figures for 1917 to 1920. inclusive which showed a decrease in production
 from 74,0O0,0OO to 65,50O,00 tons in the | four-year period. while the wage bill ad-
 vanced from s145 100000 to s252. 2.175, ,oOC in the same time.
 The payroll if 1921, he said, was ap- proximately $26o, ,OO0, which would be ! increased to $43O,000, 900 if the miners demands were conceded. MT. Warriner expressed confidence thai when the situation in all it's aspects iI presented to the miners representatives
 that they will see the impossibility ot
 granting demands which he said, would put their wages still further out of line with others and ultimately react to theiI l own disadvantage"

MASONIC HERD OF FIFTY
 CATTLE TO BE KILLED

wallingford, Conn, April e-At the meeting of the board of managers of the Masonic Charity Foundation yesterday, 1t was unanimously voted to turn the en- tire dairy herd of fifty cattle at the Ma sonic home here over to the state to be killed in accordance with the law gov erning the disposition of tuberculosis cat tie.
 The Masonic home has been working for twenty-one years to develop this herd, and many of the animals were thoroughbred and registered stock. The bull was presented to the home by Col onel William H. Hall, of Wilmington a few years ago and at that time the donor valued the animal at $20,000.
 The herd was used to furnish milk, butter and beef to the home, none of the produce being sold. Tuberculosis was discovered by the butcher of the home in January. when he slaughtered a steer for beef. He reported to the managers that there were evident signs of tuberculosis The managers requested the state to make an examination of the herd with the result that Saturdays report showed every one of the fifty cattle reacted to the tubercuiin test
 The action of the board in condemning the entire herd and ordering it killed was voluntary, as the law does not require such drastic action. The members of the board decided. however. that in justice to all concerned, this course should be taken. The compensation allowed to the home by the state is very small compared to the value of the herd.
 The dairy herd at the home has been the pride of the members and the man. agers. who considered it one of the best herds in the state, and Masons in all parts of the state will regret this loss to the home The managers have con- tracted for a supply of milk for the home. and after fumigating the barns and such parts of the farm as the cat tie may have infected, new dairy herd will be started.
