MEXICO CITY, December Fed
eral health authorities are attempting
to convince Mexican mothers that pull
que, a native intoxicating drink,
strong black coffee and fiery chilli pep
pers are far from fitting food for
young children. They hope thus to
reduce the Mexican infant mortality
rate, said to be the highest in the
world.
Among the Mexican masses there Is
a tradition that unless a baby Is given
pulque when two months old the child
will never be able to talk. Pulque is
fermented juice of the maguey plant
carrying a heavy alcoholic kick. The
custom of feeding it to infants is wide
spread among the ignorant masses.
1t also is usual for babies. as soon
as they are weaned, to be given the
ordinary diet of Mexican adults. The
child is switched abruptly from moth.

RUBBER PIONEER
i TO Be REWARDED
American Wins Aid for Henry
Wickham, Who Rushed
Seeds to England.
BY the Associated Press.

ny the Associated Press.
BOSTON, December 7.-Pecuniary
reward for deed that gave inception
to the present rubber industry is vir-
tually complete after Is years OF effort
by a Boston ship broker.
Fifty years ago Henry Alex
ander Wickham, an Englishman, gave
the world the seeds from which now
comes "a per cent of it's rubber sup
ply Quincy Tucker, the American
who has been soliciting private and
official gifts for Wickham, announces
that his campaign is near it's close.
Gave Seeds to England.
Wickham in 1876 was small plant
er 500 miles up the Amazon River
when he was asked by the India Office
of london to obtain 10000 "Hevea"
rubber tree seeds which then were
guarded as Brazilian monopoly.
The terminating life of the seeds was
only three weeks, SO he chartered q
small tramp steamer, obtained lmme-
tiiate clearance by telling shipping au-
thoritieS he was carrying rare and
perishable botanical specimens to the
Queen and raced to England.
The seeds were rushed to Kew Gar
dens, London. Only a fraction of the
seeds germinated, but they gave
Malacca, Java, Ceylon and Sumatra.
When so years old, Wickham had
little to show for his life. Tucker
visited the Amazon in 1904 and car
ried away a dream of a rubber en-
pire for American industry. He be-
came acquainted with Wickham and
in 1908 began his campaign to obtain
financial recognition for the English
man.
Now Being Rewarded.
AS a result, the Rubber Growers
Association of London in 1911 gave
Wickham SIC, 1000 and a gold medal.
In 1920. the aged man was knighted
by the British government. The
Dutch rubber growers have since con-
tributed $500 and the Rubber Asso-
citation of America voted a Semi-an-
nual gift of $3.50. This Summer, in
response to letters to American
planters, Edgar 3. Davis of Brock
ton, Mass, gave $4,000 The Malayan
government in October donated $40,-
600. Tucker has sent final appeal
suggesting a Dutch government re-
ward of $25,000.
1.-The reason L have plugged away
at this project for 18 years is that
bound up in my hopes for American
participation in the industry has
been the haunting remembrance that
Goodyear, one of our pioneers. died in
debt" said Tucker. This other pio-
neer should have something more
than q post -mortem monument"
