sociation.
Dr. Fishbein said that five alleged
cures for tuberculosis and as many
for cancer have been announced In
the public press during the last year
and that there was not the slightest
scientific evidence that any one Of
them is a specific treatment or cure
of the disease concerned in anything
even remotely resembling the degree
to which diphtheria antitoXin is Spe-
cific for diphtheria.
"Of the five cures for tuberculosis,
one was carbon dioxide gas such as
used in soda water, said DR.. Fish
bein, "one was the inhaling OF cer-
tain amount of mixed SCOT and lime.
one was a vaccine designed by a
Swiss one a vaccine designed by an
Englishmau, and then. there was
Moeligaard's gold cure of only a few
days ago. II was a noble year for the
poor consumptive, but there he lies
just about as bad as before"
DIR. Fishbein cited numerous in
stances of inaccuracies in the use by
the press of scientific terms and
phrases. Military tuberculosis. fre-
quently appears as military tubercu-
Iosis." he said. -"oocci appears as
cockeye, angina pectoris as Angora
pectoris pieura is used as plural and
the astonishing statement is often
made OF some one dying from plural
pneumonia when pleura is meant"
DIR. Fishbein stated IT is his belief
that these errors are due in part to
the speed of modern newspaper publ
cation and in part to the fact that
newspapers have not available COM
petent men to pass on medical ma
terial.

0rthodontia Practitioners Work
Limited Pending Decision on
Injunction Appeal.

Justice Hoehling of the District Su-
preme Court has refused the request
of DR.. B. Edwin Erickson, practi-
toner Of orthodontia. or teeth
Strengthening, to be permitted to con-
tinue his practice pending action by
the District Court of Appeals, to
which he has applied to set aside an
injunction granted to DR.. Charles A.
Hawley by which DR.. Erickson is pre-
vented from Strengthening teeth in
the District of Columbia until May
10. 1894. Erickson was a student un-
der DR.. Hawley and learned the meth
DDS of correcting teeth malforma-
tions, under a contract by which he
agreed not to enter the profession in
Washington until 10 years after leav-
ing DR.. Hawley's employment.
The court made an exception of 20
cases in which DR.. Erickson is now
engaged, and by giving a bond of
$4,000 he is allowed to continue the
treatment of those patients. This
exception is made, the court explains,
to protect the welfare and interest of
the patients
Attorneys Walter c. Balderston and
w. E. Lester appeared for DR.. Haw-
ley, while Attorney d. z. Pine repre-
sented DR.. Erickson.

MINE BLAST KILLS

Are Found.

PROVIDENCE. KY, January 10
Twenty children were made
fatheriess late yesterday, when an
explosion in the Diamond Coal Com
pany's mine No. l cost the lives Of
six miners who composed the powder
gang. One miner escaped. All bodies
have been recovered.
Gooch Gardner 80, and Herman
Murphy. 35, shot firers. were working
together when the blast occurred and
their bodies were scorched and
bruised, supporting the theory of
mine officers that q windy shot was
responsible for the disaster. The four
other victims, Goldie Merritt, So;
Hugh league, Sc; James Holt, rs, and
Joseph Troyer. 27, suffocated from
poison gases before they could es-
cape, 1t Is believed. Merritt leaves
widow and 10 children.
The others were fathers of from
two to six children.
The only miner who escaped was
Finis Loston, who was driving a
mule car near the entrance. Loston
was knocked down, but he groped
his way out and gave the alarm.
Eighty-five miners left the mine an
hour before the explosion.

The proposal to increase postal

to the publisher which does not fall
within the province Of the editors or

Opposes Zoning System.
eff 1t is true" he said, that the
right of freedom of the press is based
upon the necessity for dissemination
of information and opinion as the
foundational element of popular gov
ernment, 1t should be self evident
that the distribution should be un-
trammeled by arbitrary geographical
limita ations."
He added that he thought the ed
itors' organization might properly go
on record as opposed to the zoning
system as applied to second-class
postal rates. whether high or low, for
the reason that whatever the rate the
system is antagonistic to the prin-
ciples which underlie the freedom of
the press, the preservation of which
is essential to the national welfare.
Turning to cooperation between
press and the legal profession in
crime prevention work, Mr.. Yost said
there is no more occasion for CO.
operation. between the press and the
bar than there is for regulation of
the practices Of the bar There are
abuses in both professions"
For Certain Co-Operation.
He added, however, that there are
possibilities Of cooperation between
the press and the bar in calling at
tention to the "deplorable prevalence
Of crime and the even more deplor-
able failure Of the agencies of justice
to cope with it."

PRESTON GIBSON
TO MARRY AGAIN
Engagement of Evelyn {,
SpauIding to Former D. c.
Man Announced.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
HAVERHILII, Mass, January 16.-
Mr.. and Mrs. Harris w. Spaulding of
this city announce the engagement
of their daughter. Evelyn H. Spauld-
ing, to William Preston Johnson
Gibson, son of the late Senator James
Randall Lee Gibson of Louisiana and
nephew of the late Chief Justice
White of the United States Supreme
Court.
Mr.. Gibson, a Yale graduate and
member of many social and athletic
clubs, has been divorced three times.
His first wife was Minna Field, niece
of Marshall Field Of Chicago and
a stepdaughter of Thomas Nelson
Page. He later married Grace Nc
MILAN Jarvis, granddaughter of the
late Senator Mcmillan of Michigan,
who obtained a divorce in 1917. Mrs.
Beatrice Benjamin Pratt. divorced
wife of Alexander Dallas Bache Pratt
of New York, whom he married in
1919, was his third wife.
Mr.. Gibson was popular during his
residence in Washington and wrote
several plays on society in general
and that of Washington especially,
which were produced by members of
the circles in which he moved, for the
benefit of charity. He has spent little
time here since his divorce from Sena-
tor McMillan's granddaughter, making
short visits while he was a private
in the Marine Corps. Just before the
separation of Mr.. Gibson from his
second wife, he maintained an office
here for the reading and placing of
plays.

Precaution Needed in
Vanishing in Winter

The drying Of varnish is retarded
by cold weather, extremely hot wealth
er and damp, muggy weather. Conse-
quently, it should be applied, for best
results, at an average temperature, If
possible, Of approximately 70 degrees
Fahrenheit.
In reality varnish dries by oxida-
tion, and consequently plenty Of cool,
dry air Is necessary to make a varnish
dry properly. Therefore, after doing
inside work open the windows an inch
or two top and bottom SO as to give
the room plenty Of ventilation. It's
q mistake to close room tight after
10 has been vanished.
If vanishing Is done in cold weather
1t is advisable to heat the building
properly during the work. 1t is also
important that the varnish itself
should be near TO degrees Fahrenheit.
Chilled varnish should never be
used Watch this point carefully, as
1t Is liable to become chilled In a cold
shop, or room, or even in carrying it
outdoors for a distance in cold wealth
er In this case, it should be warmed
up before used

leads from the dining room to the up
per floor.
Here are found two more bedrooms,
of a larger size than those on the
lower floor, and both provided with
ample closets; here also is a sewing
room and a second bathroom. This
addition Of a second bathroom is be-
coming most popular as an addition
to the convenience Of modern homes,
and is almost essential where the
home is occupied by a large family.
Even In the smaller city apartments
II Is not uncommon to find more than
one bathroom.
This house is particularly well
suited to the shallow lot for, while
the width of the building Is 81 feet,
the depth Is only 80 feet. In pro-
porulon 10 the amount or space oc-
cupied and the cost Of construction
this house affords an unusually large
amount of room. In selecting a house
Of this type the lot on which 1t is TO
be placed should be carefully con
sidered One must keep in mind the
width Of the building, and the eleva-
tion Is Of great Importance. With
its low lines and low foundation it
would not be at all suited to any but
rather high situation, but for site
1t is ideal.

Architects throughout the country
are working toward the development
of an American style Of architecture
which will be distinctive ard will com
bine utility and hauuty in harnNni
Gus whole. This is not simple I'M
dertaking for a country OF such wide
extent and including such diverse con-
ditions of climate and natural en-
virOnment. There are houses, how
ever, which it would be difficult to
picture in any but a native American
setting though they may incorporate
features Of architecture which are
characteristic of the older countries.
Such q house is the one shown
here, it is typical of the American
home builders art A story-and-a-
half house but with the low lines Of
a bungalow, it is well adapted to its
location on a terraced corner lot And
1t affords ample room for the average
American family.
This is a frame house with lap
siding but brick is used for the porch
to good effect The beams above
the first floor and under the caves
are suggestive Of the English, though
handled in a somewhat different man
ner from the typical English style.
The overhanging caves help to
emphasize the low effect of the build
ing as whole.
From the comfortable porch the en-
trance leads directly into the living
room, off which is a sun parlor,
a feature which is rapidly becoming
an accepted part Of dwellings of all
kinds. The opening between living
room and dining room Is practically
the entire width Of the wall, and
desired with the effect Of one large
room. A second outside door opens
from the porch into the dining room.
beyond the dining room is the small,
well-equipped kitchen with built-in
cupboards, a pantry and doors leading
to the outside and to the basement.
At the side of the dining room door an
other door opens onto a small hall
off Of which are two bedrooms and a
bathroom. Both bedrooms, as well
as the living room. are equipped with

EXTENSIVE BUILDING PLANS

There is to be no slump in build
ing activities this year, but in
stead a recent federal survey
shows that building plans over
the entire country equal or ex-
coed the 1924 report.
This is good news for the lumber
industry, as lumber is the chief
building material employed in
Our Country.
If properly constructed, a frame
building is nearly as fire-resist-
ing as any other. The loss is not
so great in remodeling as with
other materials, for the lumber
may be reused.
Also, winter construction is pos
sible where lumber is used, afford.

NEWSPAPERS AND
THE PUBLIC

Roy W. Howard, head of the
Scripps-Howard newspapers, dis
cussing what newspapers owe to
the public, says first of all a news
paper must be a good citizen and
a decent neighhor.
He says they should encourage
tolerance and never forget that
a smile has an asset value even in
the midst of fight. He would
not print story that puts Grim
inal brand on a young person.
He thinks no story should be
printed that raises a question on
the part of a clean-minded boy
or girl that cannot be answered
or explained by any parent famil-
lar with the normal realities Of
life.
This is a fine stand by an execll
tive of a group of papers that go tc
working people in hundreds Of
thousands of homes, registering a
tendency toward cleaner journa
lism.
This new order is bound tc
minimize crimes, scandals, details
of social and moral delinquencies
and substitute more space for in.
dustries and enterprises by (which
nine-tenths of the people make &
living.
