OPERATION FOR THE RENEWING
 OF YOUTH

CHICAGO, June 19.-Considerable mystery surrounds the nature of the operation being performed on Harold Mccormick of this city by Dr. Victor Lespinasie of Paris. News of the oper- ation was received here Saturday, and caused great surprise to the friends and acuuaintances of MT. Mccormick, whose home is in this city. Dr. Les pinasie is a world noted authority on the theory of renewing youth by the transplanting of animal glands to the human body. Press associations in Paris have been unable to secure any information on the matter from either the doctor or the Parisian friends of Mr. Mccormick. Persistent rumors are being circulated that the opera tion was undertaken for the purpose of renewing the youth of the patient by the transplanting of glands. Me Cormick was but recently divorced from a daughter of John D. Rocke- feller and reports have come from Paris that he will wed Madame Ganna Walaska, a Polish grand opera star, as soon as she secures her divorce from Alexander Smith Cochrane of New York.

Sale Of Liquor 0n Vessels
 Creating Great FurOre

WASHINGTON, June 1s,--The con troversy over the sale of liquor on Shipping Board vessels still continues to be agitating the prohibition forces of the country, and the dry advocates are lined up to prevent the continu- ance of the practice.
 Adolphus Busch, the St. Louis brew er, wrote his letter charging the Unit ed States, with being the greatest bootlegger in the world, after return ing from Europe aboard the SS. George Washington, and observing conditions at first hand. The bar on the ship was run wide open according to Busch, and he declared that the government in violating it's own laws was setting an example of hypocrisy unparalleled in the history of the republic.
 In the written reply of Chairman Lasker approving the practice, the shipping board head, feferring to Busch said: "I believe you to be thor oughly selfish and that you are acting in the hope of creating public revolt against prohibition, utterly regardless of how you might hurt the American Merchant Marine, and for the benefit of your breweries. It is not necessary to state that Adolphus Busch, who founded your breweries, was possibly the kaisers closest friend in America and that you for many years have maintained a castle in Germany. Your action in any event will displease your German friends, whose greatest hope rof restored German merchant ma rine is lost in a hurt to Americas newborn merchant marine."
