Diseases of Dogs
And Their Cures
Told in Circular
agriculture Department
Issues NetU Bulletin
On Infections.

What the Department of Agricul-
ture knows about parasites and para
site diseases of dogs Is afforded dog
fanciers in concise form in Depart
ment Circular 33S, just issued, it was
announced today.
Next to distemper and mango, said
the announcement, worm infestations,
especially roundworm and hookworm,
are the most prevalent disorders
among dogs. OF the large number
of worm parasites, and of external
parasites. such as fleas, lice and
ticks, only a few of the more impor-
tant ones are discussed.
The Importance of knowledge of
these parasites, the department con-
tinued, is heightened by the fact that
a number of them are transmissible
in some form to men and to live
stock.
Prevention is the business of the
dog owner" the announcement con-
cluded. 'It is largely a matter of
sanitation and careful supervision of
the dogs habits, especially his food.
A dog becomes infested in one of
two ways: by being in contact with
infested premises or infested animals
or by eating raw or insufficiently
cooked meat. neglected carcasses, dis
carded viscera or raw fish containing
the larvae of worms"
Copies of the circular may be had
by writing to the department here.

ing of evolution.
In an address last night to New
York sympathizers Scopes told of his
pleasure over being the goat" in a
fight for freedom of thought.
Dudley Field Malone. New York
lawyer, who had been relegated to as
sist with research work, announced
that he would not be a goat" that he
would assist actively in the case or
not at all. So he was accepted as one
Of active counsel.
Scopes, who leaves for home today,
was a guest at a dinner of the Civic
Club last night. He said he was em-
barrassed in addressing the distin-
guished group of liberals and radicals,
first because he was young and mex
perienced, and, secondly, because while
an automobile had been sent to get
Clarence Darrow, one of his counsel,
he had to walk to the club and got

piled, II won't come unless you let
me make a speech" And speech he
did make, bristling with references to

LONDON. May 27.-Foreign Min
lister Chamberlain, answering ques-
tions today in the House of Commons,
declared the British Government had
no intention of resuning negotia tons
with Soviet Russia.
Mr.. Chamberlain said: Il should, of
course, consider any proposals made to
me, but 1 have no intention of initial
ing them
Under the premiership of Ramsay
Macdonald the Labor government of
Great Britain extended diplomatic
recognition to the Soviet government
of Russia. Later a Russian delega-
ton representing the Moscow govern
ment came to London to discuss the
settlement of all outstanding questions
between Great Britain and Russia.
These negotiations ended without
the reaching of an agreement when
the Macdonald government fell. Pub
lication of the so-ealled Zinevieff let
ter, the authenticity of which was
denied by Russia, contributed to the
termination of the negotiations. This
letter was reported as an attempt to
stimulate a Communist uprising in
England.
The negotia tions with Russia, initi-
ated by the Macdonald government,
have not been resumed by the sue
ceeding Baldwin administra ton and
no announcement has been made of a

PAYMENT is FOUGHT.
Paper Says Italy Cannot Settle
With L. S.

ROME, May 81 CFD.-Protests that
Italy is at present nable to pay her
war debts to the United States were
made today by the newpaper Messag-
gero. Intense general interest in the
question of settlement of war debts
continues.
The MeSSaggero argued that Italy's
present financial condition would not
permit her to pay even the interest
on her debt without dangerous con-
sequences to her domestic financial
structure. The newspaper declared
that even payments stretched over a
period of three generations would be
a tremendous strain upon Italy's re-
sources.
1t declared that Italy's budget now
is balanced, but that the country's
financial status still is precarious be-
ca use of the ABSOLUTE necessity of
spending much money for public
works and other domestic needs. The
continued presence of the difficult
problem of current defiation adds to
the complications OF an attempt to
settle the war debts, the Mesa ggero
said. 1t declared that the payment of
Italy's debts to the United States, or
even the payment of. interest, would
have devastating effect upon the
value of the Ira. Payments, even on
the gentlest terms. can begin only
when Italy's internal productive pos
sibilties are realized and she is able
to dispose of her surplus population
as emigrants.

1,600TH ANNIVERSARY
OF CREED OBSERVED
Nicene Convention in A. D. 325
Is Commemorated at Catholic
University Here.

Three hundred years after the cru
cifixion a man named Arian, a Pres
byter of the Christian Church at Alex
andria publicly denied the doctrine
of the Trinity and propounded a gos-
pei which somewhat resembled mod
ern Unitarianism.
The doctrine spread SO rapidly that
an inclusive council of the Christian
bishops was convened at Nicaea, an
ancient city in Asia Minor, 1000 years
ago, to determine whether it was in
conflict with the accepted creed of
Christianity.
Out of that council in 325 A. d.
came the Nicene creed, with supple
mentary denunciations of Arianism,
which has remained the corner stone
of the Roman Catholic and some
evangelical Protestant churches ever
since.
The 1,600th anniversary of that
ancient council was 'commernorated at
Catholic University last night. Rev.
P. Fumasoni Biodini, apostolic dele
gate to the United States. presided
and gave an address on the relations
between Rome and Nicaea. Rev. Pat
rick J. Healy and Rev. Edwin Ryan
of the university faculty spoke on the
work of the council and the lessons in
Christian unity to be derived from it.
Bishop Thomas J. Shahan, rector of
the university, made Introductory re-
marks.

.TAX|METER TESTS
TO BRING ACCURACY
Bureau of Standards Devises
Three Guides to Provide
Proper Recording.

Bureau of Standards experts, after
two years study, have devised three
standard tests for taximeters calcu-
lated to eliminate the diversity in re-
cording which now exists, it was an
nounced at the National Weights and
Measures Conference this morning.
The conclusion followed a study of
seven types of taXimeters represent
ing practically all now used in this
country The proposed methods were
presented by Ralph w. Smith of the
Bureau of Standards, who recon-
mended that the test be applied to all
taXicabs at least once every six
months, since the recording mechan-
ism may vary with such small factors
as the wearing down of tire.
The object in testing the taXimeter
is to determine that the changing in

revolutions of. the cab wheels, SO that
when the meter indicates a change
for given distance that distance will
actually have been traversed.
Tests Are Made.
An actual test of the taximeter on
the road was proposed as the most
practical. In addition. methods were
laid down for bench test and a sep
arate test of the time-recording aD-
paratus which determines the rate
charged for time elapsed while the car
is waiting for passengers.
Methods of testing taximeters now
vary widely in different States. il was
pointed out, with the result that
meters often record inaccurately.
Following Mr.. Smiths report the
committee on taximeter specifications
named at the last annual meeting re-
ported long list of recommendations
to be followed by local officials and in.
corporated in the State laws.
A proposal that the model law
framed by the national body for adop-
tion by States be amended SO as to

Hoover Sees Progress.
The philosophy of standardization is
making rapid progress in the National
Government, Secretary of Commerce
Hoover told the conference.
1t has heen adopted by the Depart.
ment of Commerce, he said, to bring
about unit understanding in respect
toi every article manufactured and
sold. Once this idea Is reached,
he said. a tremendous waste will have
been eliminated from national life.
Standardization in the lumber in.
dustry alone, Mr.. Hoover said, has
resulted already in a saving of about
S2s0,00o yearly When the work start
ed. he added, Is different thicknesses
existed for 1-ineh thick boards and
some of the differences were honest
on the part of the manufacturers.
Activities of Standardization, Mr.
Hoover said, must increase as civiliza-
ton grows more complex, to protect
the public from fraud and to eliminate
waste.
