WASTE COLLECTION ID PAY FOR SELF:
H. A. Smith Has Plan to End
 Cost Of Garbage System

Leasing of dumpino ground control to raise revenue as an offset against the cost of collecting garbage and refuse is suggested by Henry A. Smith in letter sent to Mayor Weld today dealing with the difficulty in garbage collection.
 MT. Smith Is of the belief, he writes, that such proposition would be money maker for all concerned. His letter follows:
 My dear Mir. Mayor:-
 T see by the papers that bids will be opened on Saturday, February 29, 1927. for city removal of garbage and not having seen a copy of the specifications I would suggest the following: That a contract be made for period of three years instead of one and oh years bid be made separate or stated amount for the full three years, the garbage to be removed once a week from all hotels, restaurants and private houses, ex. cepting during the months of July and August when the garbage shall be removed at least twice week. I would also suggest that contract be made for a period of three years for the removal of all rubbish and ashes from private houses only at least once a week. The rubbish and ashes to be kept separate and all such rubbish and ashes to be taken to some dump or dumps to be desig- mated and to be under the absolute control of the city government. In the city of New York the revenue received for the privilege of picking on the scows is from S350.000 to S500,000 per year and in the borough of Brooklyn I think. not less than S100,000 per year. I therefore be- lieve there ought to be some one here in this city if given absolute control of the dumps, would pay at least s10,0oO to s20,000 per year for this privilege and I believe they would make money at that. That the rev. enue received by the city for that privilege would go long way toward the expense of this rubbish and ash removal
 Very respectfully,
 HENRY A. SMITH"

MANY FAKE PRESCRIPTIONS
go Out of Every 100 IS Bootleggers, According to One Drug Store Official.

Chicago. Feb. 14 P1More than "9s out of 100 prescriptions written for a pint of whiskey are bootleg ging prescriptions and are disgrace to the great medical profession" said Dr. Arthur Dean Bevan. chair man of the American Medical Asso- ciation which is meeting here to- day.
 From the standpoint of personal hygiene and public health. legisla- ton has never been passed that has such possibilities for good as the prohibition amendment" he said, adding that the governments pro- vision which permits a physician to write 100 pint whiskey prescriptions quarter, and to obtain 12 points of whiskey and five gallons of alcohol year for office use was too liberal.
 Previous to the time of the Vol stead act. honest physicians in gen eral practice never prescribed 100 pints of whiskey in three months. have practiced medicine for many years and I have never prescribed whiskey except to a patient with delirium tremens in my work since prohibition has been in force"
 Dr. Bevan also attacked division of fees and some expert witnesses who give partisan testimony for pay"

Delaney Spends Morning
 on the Rifle Range

Bridgeport. Feb. 14-GPl- If ability to draw bead" on a pistol target can be taken as a criterion of a mans ability to do some sharp shooting with his fists, using another mans jaw as target, Jack Delaney, light heavyweight champion of the world, will have no difficulty in placing his punches Friday night on Jim Maloney's vulnerable spots.
 Delaney spent most of this morn- ing at the target range in the base ment of police headquarters amaz- ing the officers who happened to be there with his ability to hit the bull's-eye.
 Delaney comes honestly by this ability to shoot straight. Days spent in the north woods during his wa cations" between fights, q keen eye and steady nerves combine to make him as handy with a gun as he is with his fists.
 Those who were watching the champion in his target practice this morning saw him make seventeen consecutive bull's-eye without miss.

BUTLER'S STATEMENT
President of Columbia University Denies He Is Seeking Nomination as President.

New York, Feb. 14 P - pr. Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia University, has declared that he is not candidate for the republican nomination for president of the United States in 1928.
 Claiming his recent remark that President Coolidge would not be a candidate for reelection had been interpreted as an indication that he was seeking the office, Dr. Butler said that a private citizen discussing public questions often is erroneous ly charged with being actuated by political ambitions.
 In statement issued last night Dr. Butler emphaticaliy denied that he is a presidential aspirant.
 For more than generation we have fallen into the habit of leav- ing public discussion of political principles and policies almost exclu- sively to office holders and candi- dates for office" Dr. Butler said. "The result is that when 0 private citizen discusses public questions he is almost certain to excite suspicion that he does so because of desire for political preferment"
