SMITHS MANAGER N0T
 DISPOSED TO DROP OUT
National Committee Drops Proposal to Ask Leaders
 to Quit Race

Madison Square Garden, New York, July 3.-Several members of the democratic national committee were discussing on the floor of the con- Nention today a suggestion that the committee seek to end the deadlock by pressing for the simultaneous pub lie withdrawal of both Smith and McAdoo.
 There still is some question whether the time is ripe for such @ move" said Josephus Daniels. former secretary of navy, when asked about 1t. eordell Hull, chairman of the committee, thought the suggestion had herit. Some members of the committee received the suggestion favorably and leaders outside of the committee expressed a willingness to confer on the question.
 Apparently something developed to blast the idea after it got under dis cussion, for after casting about on it Chairman Hull said it seemed un- reasonable and Franklin D. Roose- welt, manager for Governor Smith said pooh pooh"

New York, July Civilian G. McAdoo, in personal letters ad- dressed today to the chairmen of state delegations supporting his candidacy for the democratic presidential nomination declared "the strength we have manifest ed entities us to victory"
 "Your fine delegation fought a splendid battle yesterday, and I want you and them to know again how deeply l appreciate their continued support and how warmly admire their courageous stand" Mr. McAdoo told the dele gation chairmen.
 We can win this fight if the progressive lines hold firm. The tactics of our opponents are, of course, to try to wear us out but this is just as impossible as to change the signifcances of July Fourth. The opposition cannot maintain a merely obstructive position. The strength we have manifested entities us to victory and this fact will Impress itself upon all fair minded delegates in the convention with the progress of events.
 Tt is not reasonable to expect The progressive forces, which so largely control the convention, to capitulate to the minority. That would not be democracy.

UPSON DISPLEASED WITH
 VERDICT IN FALLS CASE
Safety Lcaguer Says Drunken Drivers Should Be Fined From
 $500 to SI,OO0

Attorney Arthur W. Upson, presi- dent of the Civic Safety league, was a spectator at the proceedings in TO- lice court this morning, and expressed himself as being dissatisfied with the disposition of at least one of the cases before the court. He said that total fines of S160 in the case of Mrs. Julia M. Falls were not sufficient deterrent to drunken drivers. A fine of between $500 and. sl ,00O should be imposed, according to his statement. He said that the fact that there con- tinues to be large number of people arrested for driving under the infu- ence sof liquor is an indication that fines of s10o are not sufficient.
 His attention was called 10 the fact that second offenders on that charge are a rarity. but he answered that first offender could cause just as much damage as a second offender and should be punished severely when ar raigned before the court.

 AID TO THERAPEUTICS
Rapid Strides Being Made in Devel- oping Injection of Drugs Into Veins
 --Old System Being Abolished.


 Rapid strides in the development of intravenous therapy may soon rele- gate the old-fashioned bottle and spoon, former indispensable elements of the sick room to the oblivion of the air-tight sick chamber.
 Tn view of the progress made by this branch of medical science with in the last 10 years, l believe it will rcvolutionize thop ractise of medicine from a therapeutic standpoint" Dr. w. Forest Dutton, medical director of the hospitals of the University of Pennsylvania Graduate School of Medicine, declared. T have been ex- perimenting with intravenous therapy for 20 years. It is now known to be safe, efficient, accurate, and speedy in obtaining results. For merly the treatment was used in two or three diseases only and limited to four or five drugs.
 Now it may be applied in about l30 diseases About 140 drugs are used. When injection is made in the veins with the needle the medicine reaches every portion of the body in less than 60 seconds. The medicine in the ampouie does not come in con- tact with the air before being in jected."
 Dr. Dutton cited some recent cases to Illustrate the speed with which re- suits were obtained through the vein treatment as compared with giving through the stomach Tn diphtheria and other in- fcctious cases medicine injected in the veins brought results in one hour. while in the stomach the same medi- cine required three to four hours.
