Representatives Say

Geneva, Sept. 20. by the A. PD
Two members Of the Japanese
delegation declared to press repre-
sentatives today that if Japan did
not obtain satisfaction of her de-
mands for an amendment to the
proposed protocol of arbitration and
security, she probably. much to
their regret, would be obliged to

If this happens the protocol in

its sub committee, will fail Of adop-
ton and consequently the interna-
tlrnal disarmament conference pro-
vided for in the protocol and plann-

NEW LYRIC BILL.
 OPENS THURSDAY

Woman is pleasing in her infinite variety and so is vaudeville, So the bill at the Lyric the last half of the week, starting this afternoon, should be ex- ceptionally diverting, because it is so varied. Mirth, melody, singing, danc- ing and novelty will be found in. the five acts of big-time Keith vaudeville. which, make up the program to be pre- sented1 through Saturday night.
 The headliner is an unusual number, Charles Althoff, ''The Yankee Fiddler" " Charles Alth0ff is indeed a relic of the farm: He is not character actor but a genuine character. His type may be found in most every rural district. He belongs to the soil and has come un along with the corn and potatoes and when he came to the stage he brought along with him good wholesome comedy and. characterizations of the character he depicts.
 The big added attraction is varied enough in itself to be a whole show. It is presented by La Varre Brothers and Miss Pingree, who call 1t "A Patched Vaudeville Quilt" There is said to be something of everything in it, and everything done well, because the trio is known as one of the most versatile in vaudeville.
 The special feature brings Lewis and Norton ilI fast moving skit. chockied full of rich comedy and specialties. with special scenery, which is entitled. Touring from Coast to Coast 1t comes heralded as an act that has been meeting with a spontaneous reception in each city on its route.
 Rounding out the bill are Helene Heller and George Riley in, Sunshine and Pep" and Peggy Bremen and Com pany in "The Imp's Playground" a gymnastic novelty.

than 70 per cent, died. The severity of the attacks seems to be increasing. The mortality in late outbreaks would reach more than 90 per cent. In the last two outbreaks reported here there were 19 cases with r deaths.
 News reports are, unfortunately, likely to call all sorts of conditions food poisoning" or "ptomain poison ing" and even ''botulism."- When the scientific investigators run these re- ports to their sources they find many instances of error. In 40 post-mortem examinations made in a total of 259 reported cases of ''ptomain poisoning the reports in every instance showed death due to such other causes as men ingitis, kidney disease, pneumonia and wood alcohol poisoning.
 Home Packed Food Chief Cause
 It is necessary, if we are to prevent outbreaks of botulism, to know the par ticular food products that have carried death. In g instances the food in criminated was home-canned string beans; in 15 cases, home-canned corn {; in instances, the food was commer- cially packed spinach in 8 cases, home-canned asparagus was proved to be the cause; and so on with various foods, including in the com plete list almost every vegetable or meat that is put up at home or in the fac. tory.
 It is important, too, that we recog- nize the relative proportion of botulism definitely related to food packed in the home as compared with that packed in the commercial packing plant. Of the total number of outbreaks, the number caused by hOme-packed as compared with factory packed foods is about ten to one. This does not mean that home packing is to be avoided. It merely means that the home packer must exer. csie the same scientific control that commercial packers are learning to exer cise as the result of scientific investi. gation of packing dangers and packing methods.
 Strangely, of the thirty-one out breaks occurring during 1922 and 1923. all were in western states. All the data assembled show only three outbreaks in southern states, and in one of these the incriminated cause was food packed in the west. It should be Remembered in this connection that by far the larger amount of food packed in this country is packed in the west.
 Outbreaks of botulism have occurred in practically every state, and the bacillus that causes botulsm has been found in. the soil of practically every state. Recent studies indicate that the soil of certain portions of Alaska is singuiarly free from botulism spores, and this soil is acid in reaction. Further, the spores were found in greatest numbers in soils of mountain regions which had never been cultivat. ed, and to the least extent in soils that had been intensively cultivated.
 The bacillus botulinus is not, more. over. the only hacterium that may at- tack food. Such bacteria as the para typhoid group of organisms gain en- trance into foods. and If in sufficient concentration, produce attacks of illness which are not botulism. The type of ill., ness which they produce is that com mOnly called 'ptomain poisoning" which yet has nothing to do with ptomains. It is important that the reader bear these distinctions in mind.

few jars of some favorite fruit or veg etable. The string beans were so much admired that on the occasion of this family reunion one of the mothers fed nursing baby with teaspoonful of the juice, and another started off her nursling with string bean on which to chew as pacifier.
 Sixteen hours after the dinner two of the children at the dinner, aged G and 9 years, became severely nauseated. Then one after another of the other members of the Gerbjg family began to fall i'll, so that 40 hours after the meal every one present was seriously at tackled. The first death occurred 27 hours after the dinner. Then one by one, two or three hours apart at first and finally at longer intervals, the suf- fering bodies were overcome by the poison until every member of the Ger big family had passed away.
 Enough To Kill A Town
 What did the special investigator of the United States public health service find when he came to study the out break? On the shelves in Grand mother Gerbig's pantry there remained five jars of string beans from the same pack. Each contained enough of the poison developed by the bacillus botuli- nus to do away with an entire com munity. The slightest taste of it was sufficient to cause death. Furthermore. the food in one of the jars examined was, so far as any ordinary observa- tion could show. normal in appearance and in odor, The soil in which the string beans had grown was found sat urated with the spores of the bacillus botolinus.
 On February 9, 1924, seven Italian residents of Sterling. Col. celebrated the termination of hog killing bee by a special luncheon which included fresh salami sausage. This sausage was blamed, but;it was not the conveyor of the botulinus.
 The seven persons who fell ill with in 24 hours also partook of a combina- tion salad built largely on string beans. The cook had put them up during the past summer. Indeed, she admitted that on opening the jar impulse had moved her to dispose of the upper DOT tion of the ; material, which she had

tossed into convenient receptable. Although 13 days had elapsed, the dis carded string beans were found. Tests showed they contained a powerful toxin elaborated by the bacillus ~botulinus. They had been grown on the soil of the family ranch and the soil also con- tained the spores of bacillus botulinus.
 In this outbreak seven persons fell i'll, including one little girl only years old, and five died, including the little girl, who should have been protected by intelligent adults. The mother also vol unteered the information that one-half of the pack of string beans made dur ing the summer had been thrown away because of spoilage. And yet, when the cases of botulism began to appear, the doctor who was called in. the doe tors wife, and practically every one in the community blamed the sausage.
 This is especially interesting because the word 'botulism" means sausage poisoning" Accounts of botulisIh 20 back to 1735. The disease was origi- nally thought to be caused by sausage.
 Symptoms Of Botulism
 The writer on medicine for the public hesitates to describe the symptoms of disease, for the timorous reader is like ly to cOnjure up these symptoms in himself on the first opportunity.
 The symptoms usually appear in from IS to 36 hours, although sometimes earlier and sometimes as long as IA hours afterward.
 The, first symptom is usually a sort of nausea the patient may complain of headache or of feeling very tired. Ere quently the nausea may progress to an actual ejecting of food.
 Among the first symptoms which are particularly striking are those af- fecting the eyesight. The person af. fected sees double, his eyelids tend to droou, and as the condition progresses he is disturbed by the light. Finally the nerve leading to the eye becomes so completely involved as to lead to com plete loss of the power to accommodate the vision to various distances and ob- jects. Almost at the same time the persons poisoned begin to complain of difficulty in swallowing and in talking. The throat feels dry and contracted. The patient coughs and attempts to clear away the mucus that accumu- lates. Paralysis affects the. intestinal tract. Muscular weakness is so great that it may actually resemble a com. plete, paralysis. The condition pro. gresses in many instances to death.
 One hundred and thirty-one out breaks of botulism have occurred in the Uplted States since 1899. Four hun. dred and fifty-four persons have been affected, and of these, 307, or more

Those lives were sacrificed to ignorance of some fun damental facts about the canning or hacking of food.
 The deaths occurring each year make it certain that our gradually ac- cumulating knowledge of the cause, the prevention and the cure of botulism must become common property if this terrible poison is to be eliminated from possibility of danger to man.
