NEW YORK, December 17.-Vic-
| tory of Mrs. c. Crittenden Calhoun,
| president of the Women's Universal
| Alliance and the Mothers Memorial,
| in a legal action brought to obtain the
! proceeds of a benefit performance in
| the Metropolitan Opera House october
"a, under patronage of Queen Marie of
Rumania. was learned yesterday.
The proceeds of the entertainment
were impounded on application of the
publicity firm of Leffingwell & Scott,
which claimed breach of contract. Suit
| was then brought for damages in the
| state Supreme Court under the name
of Miss Suzette Steward, SCOTS secre-
tary, to whom rights under the al
legged contract were assigned.
She Blames Propaganda.
The case was transferred to the
United States District Court and. final.
ly, on application of the plaintiff. was
dismissed entirely. There was no
| money settlement made. The dismissal
was made by the court under stipula-
tion between counsel that the defend
ant be given written release from all
the alleged charges, thus freeing the
| impounded proceeds.
In a statement issued in connection
with her court victory, Mrs. Calhoun
| asserted that the opera house per-
Torrance failed to result in a "hand-
| some benefit" for charity. due to an
attack of propaganda launched by
forces inimical to Loie Fuller, friend
| of the Queen.
1.-THE whole plan," said Mrs. Cal
houn, referring 10 anonymous letters
| she said were sent to the press and
the Queen, and TO news articles erro-
| neously reporting withdrawal of sup
port by prominent persons, was evil
IDENTIFY a part of the propaganda to
discredit the performance of Miss Full
Ter, who was the real target Of the
attack.
Planned i'm Advance.
"The Woman's Universal Alliance
| and the Mothers Memorial are organi.
cations dedicated to the betterment of
conditions for women and to child
welfare. Mrs. Calhoun said that the
| entertainment had been planned as a
benefit for those institutions long be-
fore it was known that Queen Marie
was coming to America.
The decision to have the entertain
| ment given by Miss Fuller, and under
patronage Of the Queen, was reached
only after all plans had been COM
pleted for different program. and at
Miss Fuller's suggestion.
Among statements in the press which
Mrs. Calhoun classified as being part
of the propaganda inimical forces"
were assertions that support had been
withdrawn by Gov. Smith, Mayor
Walker and several prominent society
women.

this fact. this ice was fast breaking

FIRST ENZYME FOUND.

THE isolation and capitalization OF
the first enzyme has been achieved
by DIR. James B. Sumner, assistant
professor of biological chemistry at
| the Cornell Medical College. Success
came only after period of research
covering nearly nine years.
Chemists have been attempting to
purify engines for nearly a century,
but up to the time of DIR. Summers
discovery no engine had ever been
prepared in pure condition and the
! chemical nature of engines was en-
tirely unknown. Indeed, prominent
worker in this field. DR.. Richard Will
statter of Germany. recently stated
that the engines belong to no known
group of chemical substances.
An engine, the word mea ming "in
yeast" is a substance elaborated by
plants, animals or micro-organisms
that accelerates chemical reactions
without itself being used up in the
process. In other words, an engine
Is catalyst. But the engine is a
cata1yst of a special sort. 1t is ex-
tremely unstable and of colloidal ma
ture. These are the chief reasons why
the isolation of an engine has been
considered an almost impossible task
Engines are sometimes called fer
ments because they cause fermenta-
tions. OF the great number of en-
zyfnes found in living cells, a few ex-
amples are: Zymase, which is present
in yeast and which is responsible for
the alcoholic fermentation of saccha-
rine liquids; rennin, which is obtained
from the stomachs of calves and which
is used in the manufacture of cheese;
pepsin, which Is present in the gas
trio juice and which digests meat, and
thrombin, which is necessary for the
coagulation of blood.
The engine isolated by DR.. Sumner
is known as urease and occurs in the
