SMOKING is HARMLESS
DECLARES PHYSICIAN
Tobacco May Even Be Good For
Health, Scientist Asserts

LONDON, May 5.-CBy Associated
Press) = The danger to smokers
from nicotine poisoning is de-
clared by DIR. E. p. Rogers to be
so small as to be almost negligi-
BILE" This should be tidings of COM
fort and joy to many smokers in
America, where, according to dis
patches received here something like
crusade Is under way against My
Lady Nicotine She is there de-
jade who is responsible. for much
that is injurious to health"
DR.. Rogers opinion is based on
experiments conducted by himself
to determine the action of fire on
the tobacco consumed. He has just
published an account of them with
the conclusions he has reached.
He first took 10 grains of tobacco
stepped in alcohol and water in or
der to extract all the nicotine. He
said the solution was strong enough
to kill a dog weighing four stone.
He then took similar quantity
of the same tobacco and burned it
in a pipe so constructed as to retain
the whole of the smoke produced.
The liquid resulting was found to
have no worse effect on a dog than
to trouble his digestion. The dog
was of the same weight as the dog
on which nicotine had been used with
fatal effect.
DR.. Rogers says he found that
combustion DESTROYS the nicotine, or
rather transforms II into cresols
bhenous and other substances which
if they are rather irritating are
nevertheless excellent antseptles.
The pipe or cigarette holder, he says.
should be kept clean. but with that
danger guarded against there is no
other. I'm these conditions" he
states in conclusion. tobacco may
be even good for the health

NATIONAL DEBT is LOW
Swcden's Per Capita Indebtedness
Only S61 .6O--American,S 226.0O

STOCKHOLM, May 5.-Sweden's
national debt capita is only $67.6O,
while that of the United States per
capita is $4,000. This is one of the
interesting bits of statical Informal
ton reported by the swedish General
Export association in connection with
the new Swedish state loan which
has just been made a still more
significant statement sheds light on
Swedens credit position, which has
been established during the last few
years.
At the end of 1921 the assets of the
national account, including cash on
hand, treasury funds, post and tele-
graphs, state railways, water power
works, domains, shares and loan
funds, exceeded the national debt by
1.546, 900 kronor about $412,000,-
900, as against corresponding ex-
cess in 1913 of about $241, 900, 900.
The new Swedish state loan, which
has just been absorbed by the in
vestors, bears interest at Az per
cent, and was sold at 81. An inno-
walton in placing this loan was that
it was offered to the public directly
by the treasury department instead
of being handled by the banks.
Considerable sums which would
otherwise have been expended for
commissions were thus saved.

FRENCH BIRTH RATE
DROPS HALF MILLION
Germany's Population In
creaSing at Much More
Rapid Rate

PARIS May 5.--A row of three
babies of diminishing sizes, clothed
in white and resting on a black
tention in the windows of the Ma
tiCnal Alliance for the Increase of
French Population.
1t is a show window way of telling
the story of decreasing race. The
largest baby has written underneath,
Year 1S6S-1 .034,000," the second
baby, Year 1913-746,oOo and the
last baby. Year 1926?-5oo,Oo0
The trouble between France and
Germany is one of babies, according
to the spokesman of this organiza-
tion and Germany is boung to win
the next war because of more babies.
According to the latest figures,
Germany now has 100000 extra new
babies, and France but $4,000 above
her death rate.
Frances present population is
placed at 39,200,000, whereof 100000
are foreigners. Her native popula-
tion for the first six months of 1922
increased by 9,045, compared to 15,S49
in 1913, a normal pre-war year.
With the number of marriages in
creasing 192.452 for the first six
months CT 1922 as compared to 16o,-
722 in the corresponding period OF
1879, the birth rate is slightly lower,
as is the death rate.
The National Alliance, however
points out that there is per cent
decrease in the German birthrate due
to postwar poverty and other causes.
France is endeavoring by legisla-
ton to increase the birthrate. Faith
ers of four or more children are given
higher salaries, and other measures
are being adopted, one of which is
to give a father an extra vote for
every child.

MANY BRITISH CLERGY
ENTER LABOR PARTY
500 Ministers Sign Congratulatory
Message To Ramsey Macdonald

LONDON, May 5.-BX Associated
Press. c--More than five hundred
clergymen of the church of Eng
land have formally pledged their sup
port to the labor party. Among them
are many canons. For long time
many in the church have felt keenly
the reproach that the working classes
were being alienated from the
church, that the church showed
plainly that it had no sym
pathy with them and their aims and
aspirations, and never did anything
for them. The leaders of this move
ment within the church are deter
mined, it is said, that hereafter labor
shall have no cause to complain that
it lacks friends among the clergy.
The 500 clergymen signed con-
gratulatohry memorial address to
Ramsay Macdonald and other labor
members of parliament in which they
say: We shall support actively in
whatever ways are open to us the
efforts you will assuredly make for
the spiritual and economic enamel
patton of the people"
Canon Donaldson, in presenting the
memorial, said: 1T is quite clear that
a great change of outlook has taken
place. not to say landslide of the
clergy in regard to their opinion
and attitude toward the labor move
ment."
