TALK
ON FARM MARKETING

Continued from Page One.)
ed out for the farmers not being able
to get the best prices for their pro-
ducts was the continuous change in
prices. He said that often times a
farmer lost much money by selling at
the wrong time. The radio, said the
speaker, would help eliminate this
trouble and stated that every farmer
could install in his home a receiving
station for about $500 and that the
Government was arranging to send
out each morning, about 8 o'clock, the
prices of products and that in this
manner the farmer would know
whether or not he was receiving a
fair price for his products. The
speaker promised to send out the in
formation of how these receiving sta
tions could be installed for this
amount and the Post will publish this
information in short time.

WOOD ALCOHOL
Only Z Per Cent Of Bootleg
Whiskey Drinkable

Perils besetting the imbiber of
bootleg whiskey were forcibly demon
strated by statement of Prohibition
Commissioner Haynes, who said re-
Gently that only 2 per cent of the
liquor analyzed by chemists is found
to be drinkable. The other 90 per
cent is poison.
Horrors of Wood Alcohol
BY DR.. Menas S. Gregory, Director
of Psychopathic and Alcoholic Serv-
ice, Bellevue Hospital, New York, in
an interview with Edward M. Thierry.
81 have seen men die of wood al
cohol poisoning. 1t is frightful death.
even when it is diluted as an in
gredient-mistaken for grain alcohol
in liquids sold as whiskey, wood
alcohol is very terrible poison.
|, "a drink of wood alcohol brings in
ternal hemorrhages, blindness, con-
vulsions, delirium-and usually death.
"Hemorrhages occur in the brain
and in other parts of the body. Wood
alcohol acts on the blood vessels, es-
pecially, the small ones. The capillar-
les burst.
"That is what causes blindness.
The tiny arteries of the retina are
ruptured, destroying the sight.
Every few recover from wood alco-
hol poisoning. 1t does not depend so
much on the amount taken, for one
person may be able to stand more
than another, as it does on whether
the poison acts on blood vessels in
fatal spots.
"Action of the poison, however, de-
pends on the amount taken. Usually
symptoms appear within four or five
, hours.
"When the victim comes out of his
coma and stupor he has violent con-
vulsions. In his delirium he acquires
prodigious strength and to prevent
injury to himself or others he fire.
quently has to be tied down.
"Delirium tremens is an entirely
different thing-a mild thing COM
pared to the convulsions and delirium
of wood alcohol poisoning. The victim
is too sick to have hallucinations.
"A man blinded by wood alcohol
poisoning does not usually recover his
sight even if he, fortunate excep-
ton, does not die. Sometimes the
brain is affected permanently"

A CREED F o X
NEWSPAPER MEN

l believe in the profession OF
journalism.
l believe that the public jour-
nal is a public trust; that all con-
nected with it are, to the full
measure of their responsibility,
trustees for the public; that ac-
ceptance of less service than the
public service is betrayal OF this
trust.
I believe that clear thinking
and clear statement, accuracy,
and fairness are fundamental to
good journalism.
| believe that a journalist
should write only what he holds
in his heart to be true.
l believe that suppression OF
the news, for any consideration
other than the welfare of So
ciety, is indefensible.
I believe that no one should
write as a journalist what he
would not say as gentleman
that bribery by ones own pock-
etbook is as much to be avoided
as bribery by the pocketbook of
another; that individual respon-
sibility may not be escaped by
pleading another's instructions
or another's dividends.
I believe that advertising,
news, editorial columns should
alike serve the best interests of
the readers; that a single stand
ard of helpful truth and clean
ness should prevail for all; that
the supreme test of good jour
nalism is the measure of it's pub
lie service.
l believe that the journalism
which succeeds best-and best
deserves success-fears God and
honors man; is stoutly indepen-
dent, unmoved by pride or opin-
ion or greed of power, construc-
tive, tolerant, but never careless,
self-controlled, but never patient,
always respectful of it's readers
but always unafraid; is quickly
indignant at injustice; is un-
swayed by the appeal of privi-
lege or the clamor of the mob
seeks to give every man a chance,

wage and recognition of human
brotherhood can make it so. an

ADVANCE OF TURK ARMIES HALTED
 BY ORDER OF RENAL PASHA; PLANS
 MEETING TODAY WITH HARRINGTON
.SUSTAINS MANDAMUS IN VACCINATION CASE School Board, Not Town of Milford, Liable in Suit,
 Is Finding

New Haven, Sept. 29.-A motion to squash mandamus proceedings against the Milford school board over man. agement of the schools in that town was denied by Judge Ernest c. simp- son in common pleas court today. At the same time the court allowed a motion to quash in proceedings against the town of Milford. The court decided that as town was without authority regarding the con- duct of its schools, mandamus should not issue against 1t.
 The action was brought by F. L. Wilder of Bridgeport, for Hattie E.. Burr, mother of Kenneth Burr, who is alleged to have been refused admis- sion to a school because he had not been vaccinated Judge o. W. Platt appeared for both the town and the school board. In the motion to quash Judge Platt said that in this state the sending of child to school was a privilege and not a right and that a school board had authority to re- fuse admission at its discretion. The action of the board in this instance Mir Platt said, was for the benefit or the health of the community and 1t simply used its discretionary powers in enforcing an order that was not directed at any individual pupil but at all whose parents refuse to allow their children to be vaccinated.
 MT Wilder asked for a continuance as he wished to file demurrer. Next Friday at noon was set as the time for the hearing.

RULES ARE CHANGED
Democrats Propose Amendments To State Rules Similar to Bylaws of Republican Party.

New Haven, Sept. 29-A change in
 party rules adopted by the state com
 mittee yesterday will conform pro- cedure of organizing in democratic state conventions to the plan which
 the republicans have, Hereafter the
 state chairman will set a date for the
 state wide primaries for choosing delegates to the state convention and between that date and the opening of the state convention districts may eau
 GUS and select members of the con
 vention committees as well as the state committeeman for the district On the opening night of the conven- ton the district caucus chairman can represent the selection of committee members eliminating the need of eau cusing during a convention recess. If has not been unusual in the past to have from 20 to 30 caucuses in ses- sion and about the convention hall with a great deal of confusion sur rounding them.
 The new rules will remove local contests from the convention hall. In case of contest over a state commit teeman it may be fought out at home rather than as a side issue at the con vention. So far as organization of q convention is concerned it will facili- tate the work and make it easier for the clerks to. handle the routine.
