STAND RAPED
Corn Belt Committee
Approves Aid Plan
Of Dem Party

DIES MONIES. July 17.-CP-Con.
demnation Of President Coolidge's
veto Of the McNary-Haugen bill, the
republican farm relief plank and the
candidacy Of Herbert Hoover today
were eontrasted with the approval Of
agricultural plank OF the democratic
party as the results Of a meeting
of the corn belt committee.
Members Of the committee, made
up Of mid-western farm leaders, as
sembled yesterday to discuss the po-
litical situation as il affected the
farmer in the Forthcoming election.
Organized agriculture speaking
through the corn belt committee
hereby expresses its determination
20 carry on the fight for the princi-
pie Of the McNary-Haugen bill,
which Is the only plan that has been
suggested 70 make the protective
tariff effective on these agricul-
tural products Of which we produce
a surplus, without government sub
sidy, which We have consistently op-
posed" said the resolution.
The Houston agricultural plank
was commended on the ground that
IL includes a definite endorsement
Of the principles for which organ
lied agriculture has long been fight
ing" The republican stand on the
farm question was pictured as "a
renewal, in less definite form. OF the
pledges adopted in 1924 at Cleve-
land
With every ounce Of our strength
we oppose the Hoover-Coolidge pol
icy Of the industrialization of Amer
lea at the expense of agriculture"
said another resolution.

DOCTORS JOIN
In BATTLET TO
SAVE BABIES
~Infantile Paralysis
Still Battles All Con-
troll; Serum Is Help
In Attack

NEW YORK, July l7.-(P1-Be-
lieving that on the basis Of the his
tory Of the disease they cannot look
forward with an ydegFee Of assurance
to an absence of outbreaks of in
fantile paralysis during this summer
and fall, doctors and research men
throughout the country are organ
izing for y concerted attack on any
epidemic that ma develop.
Every possible precaution is now
being taken TO protect the public
from the ravages Of the disease and
doctors believe the advances which
medicine has made in the knowl-
edge of infantile paralysis during re-
cent years should diminish the anxi-
ETY. which its presence always oc-
c~asions.
Have Serum
No satisfactory method of i'm
muniEation from the disease has
been developed but there is now a
eoHvaleseent serum, taken from the
blood of recovered patients, which
acts TO nullify the virus il injected
in the early stages Of sickness. Funds
have already been established in San
Francisco, Boston and New York, 20
defray the expense of collecting and
distributing this serum, which will
be placed in the care of committees
of physicians especially informed and
qualified to direct its use.
When the above facts and those
that follow were made known to the
Associated Press they were presented
70 officials OF the Rockefeller lnsti-
ute OF Medical Research and the
institute gave its official approval.
Germ Divisible
The main eenters of experimental
investigation of the disease have been
at the Rockefeller Institute here and
At the PasteuF Institute in Paris, al
though laboratories in Germany
Austria and Sweden have added their
contributions 20 the rapidly growing
knowledge Of the disease. lnfantile
paralysis is caused by an invisible
germ and is communicated from one
person to another only through the
mouth and nose. Cleanliness and
forbearance from contacts such as
kissing children, who are the chief
victims, are the only known preven-
tives.
"It is necessary that parents keep
a sharp lookout as 70 the health OF
their children" one internationally
famous physician told the Associated
Press. Symptoms Of the disease are
readily apparent TO the layman. The
children run a fever, become nau-
seated perhaps. and complain of a
headache. These are also symptoms
OF many other diseases. In a little
while the neck may s%tiffen, or an arm
or a leg become flaeeid. IL only the
child can be placed in the hands Of
a competent physician before this
the results would be bene-
These facts are stated not
for the purpose Of alarming the gem
eral public. but merely 10 point out
the necessity for great care.

The present rates, while not SAL

better than those which aroused the
protests OF all southwestern fruit
growers, shippers state. The present
rates give the Valley the advantage
