WOOD ALCOHOL

Every patron of a bootlegger occasionally has g. bad mo-
ment when he wonders if, by any chance, the stuff he has just
swallowed puts him on the list Of wood alcohol victims.
Millions OF people discuss wood alcohol daily. Yet the
average person knows next to nothing about this mysterious
poison, except that it removes varnish, causes blindness and
death, and is used by INSCRIPTIONS b~ootleggers because it is
cheap.
So, Watson:
Methyl alcohol, commonly known as wood alcohol, was
first discovered in 1872 by the research chemist, Taylor.
1t is formed by the destructive distillation of wood. Also,
ally. You observe the possibilities of synthetic hooch made
from alcohol that has been Spiked with formaldehyde or
other poisons, by government order, to make it unfit for bevs
erage purposes. g.
Intoxication from wood alcohol is similar to the effects
of pure bonded liquor-at first. s
It intoxicates slowly and is remarkable for the durations
of its hangover, - as undertakers will testify. {
A teaspoonful of wood alcohol is su. .cient to cause blinds
ness, beginning with double vision, falling Of the body's tenn
perature, loss Of sensation in the nerve centers and rhythmic
commissions. &
A drink of wood alcohol causes blindness 80 times out
of 100, and usually means certain death, though sometimes the
patient fingers for as long as a year.
Here is a sentence which, if written indelibly in every
brain, would save many a life:
at is worthy Of note that in many cases methyl alco-
hol a~mblyopia' beginning of blindness) "has resulted from
the excessive use Of essence OF ginger, or peppermint, or other
aromatics, in the preparation of which the alcohol has been
used as a menstruum" (solvent. So
That is a quotation from the United States Dispensatory,
the official medical guide used by druggists and physicians.
What to do when some one has swallowed wood alcohol
Rush for a doctor. Even he can do little except strive to get
it out of the system, cause free sweating and administer large
doses of sodium b~icarbonate dissolved in water.
Ethyl alcohol-the grain alcohol of socalled pure whisky,
sought by many as the elixir of youth-consists of a combine
ton of two atoms Of carbon, one of oxygen, six of hydrogen.
From that, take two atoms of hydrogen and one Of carbon,
and you have wood alcohol.
Funny, what a difference just a few atoms make.

dustrial code to govern all relations
between coal operators and miners,
and all adjustments of those rela-
| tons, may be the basis of the settle
ment of the controversy that has
! threatened the fuel supply of the
| country since April /. Such a code
is the distinctive feature of the Ken
yon Bill, now pending in the senate.
which was the las contribution OF
the former senator from Iowa to-
| ward the solution of strike prob
lens.
Senator. Kenyon introduced this
| bill in February shortly after the
| committee of which he was CHAIR
man had concluded its Investigation
of the West Virginia coal troubles.
| Senator Borah, of Idaho, succeeded
| the Iowan as the head of the COM
| mittee that considers labor legisla-
| ton, and it is understood that he is
| preparing TO expedite action on the
Kenyon Bill, or on some similar
measure which will embody its es-
sential provisions. 1t is also stated
that President Harding is f~avorably
| disposed toward the bill, but OF
course no one is authorized to speak
| for the White House in such mat
tiers and as yet the President has
| gone no further than to express his
approval. of the general industrial
| code idea in one of his messages to
congress.
The idea back of the proposed
| code is that there are certain funda-
| mental principles or rights which
| should he the basis of all agreements
| between the operators and miners as
ta NE anA xgnFkinQ conditions
| and also to Govern all settlements
of disputes in the coal industry

argued, these basic principles, II ap-
piled will safeguard the interests
of the public which is indirectly but
| vitality concerned in every clash be-
| tween the mine workers and the OPP
| orators.
In fact. a code of this character
may be looked upon as a bill OF
rights for those who participate di-
| rectly in the coal industry and for
| the public which the industry serves.
The rights which it defines may be
fkened Il the constitutional guaran-
tees of freedom of person, freedom
of speech. freedom of assembly, ct
cetera.
Precedent in Railroad Law
Precedent for establishing such a
code in the coal industry is found
in the Transportation Act of 1920
under which the railroads were re-

Of this Kind, and. one roman who

GRACE.
1t does require as much speed and
skill to take rapid, correct typewri.-

given to typists have always been
lower than those of stenographers.
most people have the idea that the
