DISEASES IN FAR FACT
 WILL BE ANALYZED AT MEDICAL CONFERENCE

TOXIC, Sept 4 (P)-The sixth
 congress of the Far Eastern Associa
 tion of Tropical Medicine, which cor
 responds in the Orient to the Inter national Medical Congress of Europe, and which was organized in 1910 to promote the science of art and medi- cine in general in tn Far East, will be held in Tokio from October II to 31 under the auspices of the Impe- rial Government.
 Problems that affect every foreign CT living in this part of the world will be discussed, and the results of years of research by numbers of scientists will be brought forward for elaboration and approval Among the more important items, which the present and the practical results of which have been observed, are the prevention and extermination of malaria, the diagnosis of amoebic dysentery, the control of beri-beri and the compilation of statistics concerning tuberculosis.
 Since the majority of the members have been health officers they have urged the various governments to put into practice to a considerable ex- tent the results of the society's sci-1 entific research and discussion. Tn 1923 at the last Congress in Singa- pore, the council of the society rec commended that each of the govern ments interested be invited to nom- mate a representa- tive on a beriberi.I committee, the report of which is to. be heard at tn coming session, in conformance with the policy of the't association to have government rep-I resentatives discuss particular prob. lens at the general meetings. l

 The same respect for law prevails as Jackson's men had for his orders which saved the Civil War heroine from being riddled with bullets af- ter her historic speech:
 Shoot, if you must, this old gray head, but spare your country's flag"
 However, some of the younger gen. eration have raised the question of whether Frederick should have pun ished the wifebeater by invoking the whipping post law. It is pointed out that Shroyer, if guilty, might better have been sentenced to six months at hard labor and the proceeds from his toiling turned over to- the unfor- tunate wife
 Others contend there could have been no fairer punishment, standing by the doctrine of "an eye for an eye"
 Whether an organized movement against the law impends is doubt full. But the subject has furnished a lively topic for cornerstone discus sions, and in the evenings many of the populace carry their rocking chairs to the sidewalks to thresh out the problem with their neighbors.
 Frederick is located just east of the mountains, where the national highway broadens to accommodate leavy traffic to Washington, D. C., and Baltimore, both only few miles dis ant.

 Recently Magistrate Guy K. Motter sentenced Robert Shroyer, twenty eight, alleged wife-beater, to be lash ed ten times at the post. Sheriff l. W. Albaugh, using a regulation black snake whip, executed the sentence.
 The young husband took the whip ping without protest, for the sen- tence was in strict accordance with state law. After shaking hands with the sheriff who inflicted the punishment, Shroyer departed for home and the wife he is accused of beating

Ancient City Under

LONDON, May ia Phoe-
nician city beneath the sea-one
of the most important archaeo-
logical discoveries of modern
times-has been discovered by
an Arab fisherman, about 300
yards off the coast of Jerab,
according to Sir Edward Deni-
son Ross, director of the School
of Oriental Studies, who has
just returned from Tunis.
No one had any idea that such
a city, which is supposed to be
Phoenician, ever existed at that
point" Sir Edward said. "Ex-
uerts are photographing the
ruins and investigating the find.
at is a curious fact that
while this city has apparently
been buried owing to the sub
sidence and the incursions of
the sea, the former Punic coast
al city of Utique, which is al
ready an important center of
archaeological interest, is now
ten miles inland from the wa
ter's edge"

F ANIME STILL
STALKS IN
IRELAND
Although Situation Somewhat
AIIeviated, Distress Con-
finues in Sections
BY DANIEL O'CONHELL
international News Service.

DUBLIN, May 19.-Famine, which
stalked in the West of Ireland dur
ing the winter, has been somewhat
alleviated by the coming Of the
milder spring weather, but there is
still great distress.
Charles H. Fahey, medical officer,
reports from Ardhara, Donegal, that
distress there is very acute and
that actual starvation is not far
distant
The miIder weather, although on
many parts of the West Irish coast
the summer does not bring hot
weather, has alleviated sufferings
from cold, due to the peet shortage.
The food shortage still continues
and will continue probably until the
first potato crops are in. Potatoes
are the chief food of these people
and, as last years crop was almost
an entire failure, there Is a great
shortage of food.
Fishing along the Galway coast
Increases with better weather and
source of foodstuff is re-
opened, but the competition with
steam trawlers, some of them
roachers, makes It almost impos-
sible for the small fisherman to
exc out a living from the waters
Of the Atlantic.
Relief work is still going on in
the districts where the distress has
been most acute. With sufficient
aid. in the shape of seed potatoes
and opportunity for work, the stu
alton by autumn should be much
While all winters are
lean winters for many people in
West Ireland, it Is TO be hoped
that there will be no repetition of
