Do You Suffer the Agonies

Friday Health Talk No. 5
BY Geo. d. Palmer, DC, Pho.

Usually asthmatic attacks come in

weight around the chest and fear of
suffocation. Every breathing muscle
is in violent action in the agony of
effort to overcome the smothering
The face is suffused with blood and

PASSPORT
is SLOWLY PASSING

Washington, Jan. 18.-The pass
ing of the passport is gradually being
brought about in response to a grow
ing disposition on the part of the
nations to get rid of burdensome
war time regulations of travel, per-
sons prominent in diplomatic af-
fairs here unhesitatingly predict
that as a consequence the time is not
far distant when tourists may girdle
the globe virtually as unhampered
as in the days before 1914.
The agitation for removal of
the necessity for consular visas up
on passports and a letting down of
the bars in border regulations had it's
inception and strongest backing
among the business men of all ma
tions. Restrictions upon travel have
reacted upon the commercial life of
those nations accustome to gather
large yearly harvests from the we'll
filled pockets of foreign visitors, it
was pointed out; and that reaction
to the pinch of wartime necessity is
likely to carry the pendulum of
travel restrictions back to it's old
position.
Belgium was the first to ease the
The daily times., 1922-01-20

restrictions upon travel imposed at
the beginning of the war Convinced
that the necessity for rigid examina-
tion of visitors was at an end with
the coming of peace, the Brussels
government so modified it's restric-
tions that persons passing through
Belgium enroute to other countries,
and persons intending to visit Bel
gium for a period not greater than
80 days might do so without Gre
dentials. That move was followed by
agitation in Switzerland for similar
letting down of the bars, and the re-
cent action of Switzerland in grant
ing permission for visitors to enter
the country without passport re-
strictions is believed to be indica-
tive of the trend of thought in vir-
,.tually all the other European coun-
tries.

MRS. LOWE GIVES
VERSION OF KILLING

Everett True

Concord, Jan. 18.-The testimony
of Mrs. Robert Lowe, P. NJ. Mangum,
o. w. Deal, Miss Sue Mary Chap
man and Joe Lindsay, featured to-
days session of the trial of o. G.
(Red) Thomas, being tried in su
Arthur ]. Allen, of this city, in Kan
napolis on the night of October 25.
ALI Of the witnesses were introduced
by the defense. Peculiar interest
centered in the testimony of Mrs.
Lowe, prominent society woman of
Kannapolis, who was with Thomas
at the time of the killing, and next
to the defendant himself, the pub

than any other witness for either the
defense or the state.
Mrs. Lowe testified that she left
the Cline boarding house with Thorn
as shortly before s O'Clock on the
night of October rs. They drove to
Midway, just below Kannapolis, to
the garage Of Mr.. Overcast, whom
see on business. Not finding him
there, they turned around to go to
his home on Leonard street and just
then she saw a Ford sedan turn

once on the night of the homicide
and once during the last Presiden-
tial election, when she came to Con-
cord for Miss Rosa Mund, who was
to meet with the women in Kannap-
OILS. She had been with him to
Charlotte, Salisbury, Bost Mill. near
Concord, Gastonia and Winston-Sa-
lem. Usually other friends were
present. She had been with him va
rious times when her husband was
not present. Her testimony as to
the killing was similar to that given
on direct examination. ~
The daily times., 1922-01-20


The Ford went out the Bethpage
road to West street and turned in.
They followed behind about so yards
as the Ford was going in the same
Overcast home. The Ford turned
in Bell avenue and then into Leon
ard street, and they were still be-
hind it. They never passed the Ford.
When they reached Leonard street
they 'tangled" their lights to the
right in effort to locate the home of
Overcast. Just as the car stopped
in front of the Overcast house, she
saw man coming up to the left of
the car, walking in the ditch She
could not see if he was white or
black, but saw he had on a brown
shirt when he got closer to the car.
He walked to the side of the car on
which Mr.. Thomas was sitting and
said, "Cap, are you following me?'
Thomas replied .'No," and the man
then said, .'Then throw up your
hands," Thomas reached in her lap
and seized the pistol she had been
holding since they left tie boardin :
house, and shot three times They
then drove back to the Cline board
ing house. She did not know Allen.
Thomas gave her the pistol as they
left the boarding house.
