NEW ORLEANS, July 12.-Out-
standing feminine successes of

brother toilers in every field of
human endeavor here today at the

bic as men; l prefer to have them.
Miss Alice Englehardt of Detroit
whose income is between $4,000 anC
5000 annually, said.
Three things have built my sue
cess: A firm determination to gel
ahead; an utter lack of fear of worF
and an unmitigated conviction that
women are as well and sometime,
better able to direct big things a,
men. -
Starting as a shoe clerk at s. I
week when she was II years old and
with two years in high school, Mis-,
Englehardt has risen to the place o.
secretary treasurer of the Potter
Shoe Company.

FOR BRAND NEW "FISH STORY

slight poison in the hatcheries.
Col. Coupal's remedy was
simple. He sprinkled few
drops of iodine in the watts
where the small fish were kept.
Hatchery attendants collapsed
into each other S arms when
they, witnessed the result. In
less than 10 minutes the trout
were leaping about the vat in
a holiday mood.
Similar treatment was accord
ed the larger fish with the
same miraculous response.
In five days The goitre-like
growth had disappeared. The
solution prescribed by Col.
Coupal relieved the thyroid
glands of the fish from tho
labor of producing abnormal
amounts of iodine, which o
turn caused the glands to re-
turn to their normal size.

Newspaper Sued
By Dry Leader
BY United Press Leased Wire

SAN FRANCISCO, July 12.-Rev.
Edwin C. Dinwiddie, nationally
known prohibition leader, today
filed suit in federal court here for
100000 damages against the San
Francisco Examiner for alleged
libel.
The suit was based on a series of
articles published nearly year ago
by the Examiner attacking the
anti-saloon league.
Rev. Dinwiddie asserted in the
suit that the Examiner accused him
of embezzling $4,000, appropriated
by Congress for an international
congress against alcohol.
The suit set forth that he was
named by the secretary of state in
1911 to arrange for the internation-
al meeting and that the fund was
placed at his disposal by Congress.
Rev. Dinwiddie contended that the
Examiner $ charge was false and
subjected him to ridicule. The gov
crnment never questioned his hand
ling of the fund, the suit declared.

/
NEW YORK, July 12.-Prohibi-
tion in the east and agriculture in
the west is the political formula by
which John j. Raskob, new chair
man of the Democratic national
committee, hopes to win the presi-
dency for Gov. Alfred f. Smith.
| RaskOb today began a series of
conferences with Democratic leaders
looking to perfection of the organ
ization which was started yesterday
with election of Raskokb and ap-
pointment of his aides.
Raskob believes the Smith Robin
son ticket can carry the entire east
with the possible exception of Penn
sylvania by emphasizing prohibition
which he and Smith hold should be
| modified in the interest of sound
economy and general respect for
law.
Smiths promise that if elected
president he will call a conference
of farm leaders to work out solu-
ton of their problems and the fav-
orable farm plank in the Democratic
! platform will be the keynote of the
campaign in the agriculture states.
In an attempt to start the ma.
chinery of his organization ahead
of the Republicans, Raskob hopes to
have national headquarters estab-
llshed and functioning in New York
before Saturday.
Mrs. Nellie Tayloe Ross, former
governor of Wyoming, was named
by Raskob today as chairman of the
women s division of the national
organization. She succeeds Emily
Newell Blair, whose term expired
Mrs. Florence G.. Farley of Kansas
was named vice chairman.
Both women were named vice
chairmen of the Democratic nation
al committee at yesterdays organ
iZation meeting.

headquarters have been set up that
Raskob was having difficulty con

should be directed from a central

The Westerners were said to be
holding out for an elaborate sys
tenn of regional directors and it was
said compromise agreement prob
ably would be reached whereby q
second headquarters would be estab
lished in the mid west or the far
west
About 90 women went into session

THIRD FOUND DEAD

MOSCOW, July 12.-The giant
Russian ice breaker Krassin today
rescued Captain Adalberto Mariana
and Captain Filippo Zappi of the
dirigible Italia.
The third man of the group of
three who left the dirigible Italia
ice camp Is days ago-Finn Malm-
gren, Swedish meteorologist, was
found dead. He died month ago.
News of the rescue, effected after
nearly a month of almost foot by
foot struggle of the big Krassin
through jammed ice since she left
Leningrad, Russia, June Is, was
wirelessed from the Krassin short-
ly before l p. III. today.
Zappi and Mariana were half
frozen, and exhausted from starva-
tion.
One of Mariana s legs was hopes
lessly frost bitten.
With Malmgren's body, the two
Italian naval officers were taken
aboard the Krassin, which resumed
at once her fight through the ice
to effect other rescues.
Zappi and Mariana said they had
abandoned hope until the plane of
tho Russian aviator Chukhnovsky
roared through the air toward them
through the fog, sighted them as
| they waved with excitement and
circled over them five times to in.
dicate that it had seen them.
Keep Long Vigil
Physicians attended the two ex-
plorers as the Krassin S complement
crowded around them, trying to
piece together the bits of the grue-
some, heroic story they told of their
fight to reach land and how they
kept month long vigil beside the
dead, frozen body of their leader.
1t was impossible for the dazed
men to say how far they had walk
ed over the ice. 1t had drifted, ap-
parently aimlessly in cross currents,
one way and another.
With Malmgren they had left the
Italia ice floe camp May 80. Early
this week they were given up de-
finitely for lost, though it was
conceded that they might conceiva-
bly, live, on the 40 pounds of rations
they carried, until next Monday.
Malmgren was an expert in the
Arctic. The veteran of other fights
for life, he knew the ice and how
to get over it. That he should have
died and that his two companions

PROHIBITION TO
BE MAIN ISSUE
DURING CAMPAIGN
BY CARL D. GROAT
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, July 12-Sea,
soncd politicians foresaw today that
prohibition-despite all efforts to
class it as political-is to be
one of the raging issues in the presi
dental campaign.
Their view was accentuated by
two important political develop
ments in the past "A hours. namely;
l-F. Scott Mcbride general sup
erintendent of the Anti Saloon
League, opened that body's anti
Smith campaign with statement
that Smith, 5 election "would ma
terially aid the liquor criminals of
the country
Almost simultaneously, John
j. Raskob, finance wizard of the
General Motors corporation and an
-prohibtionist, was named chair
man of the Democratic national
committee, in which position he
will direct the campaign of Gov.
Alfred f.. Smith, acknowledged
modificationist.
The Mcbride statement, headed
lTpHlpllloH Hol Il par tISdH lSSuV,
declared the "Amcriean people
have settled prohibition as a politi-
cal issue by writing it into the
constitution of the nation.
The statement predicted that
''any man or group of men that rely
upon appeals to the baser passions
or appetitcs,' cannot expect vie
tory.
To Emphasize Prohibition
Meantime many politicians saw in
appointment of Raskob the anti
prohibitionist, further evidence that
Smith intends, as he Indicated re,
Gently, to emphasize the modifica-
tion issue more strongly.
Raskob declared recently that he
does not regard the 18th amend
mcnt and the Nolstead law as po-
litical questions. Instead, he con
tended in a statement that prohibi-
tion is economic and that 1t breeds
intolerance and disrespect for laws
in general.
While the Democrats selection of
Raskob probably was based chiefly
upon his organizing and financing
ability, many voters, it is held here,
will interpret his position against
prohibition as probably influencing
Smith 5 support of him for the post.
