New York. March 23--Remarkable

II was asserted that several pa
tients who seemed to have little
chance to recover had improved
greatly under this treatment, (which
is called the diathermic treatment.
1t was introduced In Hoboken, 1t
was said, by DR.. ii. v. Brosser, an
x-ray specialist OF st. Mary's hos
pital, after 1t had been tried In 20
cases In the United States Marine

coach and athletic leader and an in
structor In the department Of physio-
therapy at Yale. developed the treat
ment and used 1t on Staten Island.
The method consists Of the appli-
cation of plates to the chest and the
back and the passing Of an electric
current through the lungs. This in
creases the temperatures within the
lungs and Its beneficial effect In pneu-
monia Is said to be in breaking up

ISOLATED Press) with the arrival of
the Uruguayan delegation 1t became
generally known that Uruguay is not
disposed to press upon the Panaman
conference her scheme for league
of American nations.
It is reported the sentiment Of a
majority of the delegations, including
that OF the United States Is opposed
to considering the plan at this con-
ference. The view Is said to have
been informally communicated to
UruguaW
There seems to be general agree
ment that the proposal could not be
discussed without considering the
Monroe Doctrine and 1t Is pointed
out that It's adoption would virtually
mean that the protection afforded by
the Monroe Doctrine would be ex-
banded into mutual agreement
among all American nations for de-
Tense against possible European ag-
erosion.
The opinion that nothing will tran
spire at the conference which Europe
can justly interpret as signifying a
desire on the part of the American
nations to isolate themselves was ex-
pressed to the correspondent today by
Augustin Edwards, president of the
assembly of the league of nations and
head of the Chilean delegation. He
said there was a mistaken belief
among the peoples of Europe that
Panaman conferences were antag-
onistic to everything European.

REQUESTING THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE.

Senator Dill in d speech at Walla Walla the other day declared Of the abolition of the Electoral College and the direct election of the President ana President. This is matter that has been dis oufged from time 10 time for than half a cen tury Perhaps il would be good thing. However, il has been suggested that it would put very high premium on illegal voting in all sections of the country and have tendency States unduy to extend the suffrage Those who have raised this objection have generally favored the plan of having each Congressional district cast one vote-through Presidential eeetor otherwise.
 However, the importance of the matter is mini- mixed by the fact that only three times in the history Of conntry did the candidate for Presi who received the most votes fail to secure the election. General Jackson lead in the polling in 1924 and Jehn Quincy Adams got the office. How ever, Jackson into office fcur years later to
 emain. eight years and weld great power for de- cade after retiring In 1876 samuel J. Tlden received
 plurality Of the popular vote and lost the Presi dency by vote in the Electoral College after it had been doctored by the famous Electoral Commis- sion. In 1888. President Cleveland received a sub stantial plurality of the popular vote and lost the Presidency in the Electoral College
 There have been several times when the will of . plurality of the voters being thwarted through the operation of the Presidential election machinery. The last time in 1916 when Presi- dent Wilson received enormous plurality of the votes, but the change of a few votes in California would have deprived him of the office. similar condition prevailed in the election of 1884 when change of GOO votes in New York State would have defeated Grover Cleveland in the election New York State would have changed the results in 1880 if she had voted for Hancock but the change would have wiped cut the narrow plurality for Garfield
 If Presidents had been elected by the popular vote however, 1t is likely that many elections would have resulted the other way. In the South for instance only a handful of votes the general elec- tion. The real contests are in the Democratic pr- maries Frequently the general election vote there less of the cratic primary vote. IL is easy believe therefore than net only would Tilden have elected instead of Hayes if we had not had the Electoral College but Hancoek would have defeated Garfield in 1SS0 Cleveland would have defeated Harrison in 1888 and Bryan would have defeated Mckinley in 1896

Diplomatic Secrecy.
Gndiananolis NeWsl.

Senator Robinson, of Arkansas, is acting Demo- cratic leader and almost certainly will be chosen
 the partys leader in the Senate the sion of Congress. For him 10 any good in the administration of rival party would be contrary to politics the game is played. The Senator is par ticuarly freful of the actions of Secretary Hughes He says that the Secretary discloses fdentia information newspaper correspondents that he will nct give to a Senatorial committee.
 II is tradition of Washington newspaper work that the correspondents do violate condolences correspondents about the Governments efforts bring about new foreign policy and that if he pledges them to secrecy for the time being, the pedge will be kept The fact that the Secretary State and does talk to the correspondents is evidence that the Government has nothing to conceal and that hon est effort is being made to reach satisfactory in ternational understanding. If the information wero given to Senatorial committee. il would likely be made the subject of speeches and political pro- paganda The Secretary could pledge of secrecy from Congressmen during negotiations, and the result would be endless due to premature announcements.
 Walter Hines Page during his ineumbency Am bassador to Great Britain in the prewar period told oi one embarrassing situation after another due to unwse publication of messages that he hoped would remain confidential He would send highly i'm portant note to the President Secretary of State Secretary of State these usually became public Comment by the press and by public officials was made without any true conception the facts and result Ambassador Page had apologize and explain.

TURN HAIR DARK
 WITH SAGE TEA
If Mixed With Sulphur It Darkens So Naturally Nobody
 Ion Tall


 The old-tlme mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked and faded hair is grand mothers recipe, and folks are again using it to keep their hair a good, even color, which is quite sensible, as we are living in an age when a youthful appearance is of the great est advantage.
 Nowadays though, we don't have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and mussy mixing at home All drug stores sell the ready-to-use product, improved by the addition of other ingredients, called "Wyeth s Sage and Sulphur Compound" It is very popular because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply moisten your comb4or a soft brush with it and draw this through your nair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair dis appears, but what delights the la dies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound, is that, besides beauti- fully darkening the hair after a few applications, it also produces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive.
