300 Oklahoma Victims Paralyzed
 From Drinking Bad Jamaica Ginger

Oklahoma City, Okla, March s (uP)-More than 800 persons were treated today from effects of drink ing Jake" popular low-price intoxi- cant which paralyzed the victims.
 Many were stricken at their homes yesterday. Physicians could promise them no relief. At least 50 were in hospitals and physicians said some cases might result fatally.
 No deaths occurred although phy- sicians reported many victims, who had noted only slight muscular witches early in the day, were worse.
 All victims told authorities the illness followed drinking of jamaica gingeC distributed by bootleggcrs and blind pig" drug stores.
 Ban On Jamaica Ginger
 A federal ban was placed on the shipments of Jamaica ginger from Kansas City and St. Louis ware houses yesterday and authorities said it would exist until specialists arc able to determine the cause of the afflicton.
 Most of the victims live in the part Of the city where oil field men and laborers live. Many were youths.
 William Hartigan. chief of the United States food and drug station at Kansas City, has placed an agent Iii charge of the situation hero and announced that unless the malady lis halted within A hours I shall send nationally known specialists to Oklahoma City"
 "The wholesale paralysis is the worst thing our department has ever experienced" one of the agents de- clared.
 Sells For Little Money
 Jake is an abbreviated name for jamaica ginger" a drink sold at blind pigs and some drug stores. It is easily procurable here in eight ounce bottles for 50 cents and some places it is sold at 25 cents drink The liquor is highly intoxicating.
 Federal and city officials have started raids on places selling jake" and tests are being made of the contraband in an attempt to learn what poison is attacking the drinkers.

BRAND ATTITUDE
 EAGERLY WAITED
Key Figure in Further Negotia- tionS Of Naval Conference

London, March s R)-Aristidc Briand, French foreign minister and Frances naval delegation head, was the key figure today in the further negotiations of the five naval pow CTS 10 limit, and possibly reduce, naval armaments.
 The United States and Great Brit ain have reached virtual under standing on limitation arrange ment permitting parity" between them, and while Japan still is hold ing out for a higher cruiser ratio than the United States has been willing to grant, few doubt that a compromise arrangement also is within reach with the Tokyo dele gates.
 Briand's Problem Differs
 But M. Briand. who has just re- turned with a French representa- tion after an absence of three weeks, presents problem of another color; a demand for a naval tonnage con- siderod excessive by Great Britain. with an alternative of political pacts or arrangements guaranteeing French security as the price of linn itation at lower figure.
 Ramsay Macdonald British min ister and chairman of the naval conference, who profcsses optimism as to the outcome of the ncgotia- tions, will confer with NJ. Briand on the general status of the conference and on the AnGlo-Frcnch relation ship Sunday afternoon, prior 10 radio address to America at $50 ). m. G2:GO D. m. l.. s. ID
 Some quarters believed the con- vcrsation between the two men might go a long way toward eradi eating the impasse brought on by the tonnage demands of Andre Tar dieu, French premier, which M. Brand is now repeating. In any event. it was considered probable that the meeting would permit once for all clear understanding be- tween the two on at least two points.
 Two Problems Remain
 The first of these was that If France insists upon a total naval tonnage of 724,O00 within five years British fleetS will have to be h. creased accordingly. The second was the exact nature of the political pacts or arrangements which the French delegation has inferred-but never actually uggested-would be alternative to the projected naval increases.
 While Mir Macdonald and NJ. Bri- and are conferring with regard to the Anglo-French relationship, the Americans and Japanese are en- gagged in discussions to determine how large Japans navy shall be with regard to that of the United States, both representations recog- nizing that aIy figures agreed upon may be subjected to revision up ward if the French figures arc not brought down.

COMMENT
IMMIGRATION IN
NEXT CONGRESS

In a brief interview while in
Phoenix the other day Chairman
Albert johnson of the house COM
mittee on immigration and natural
ization predicted the elevation of
Representative Samuel Dickstein of
New York to the Craftsmanship in
the event of democratic organiza-
ton of the house by the congress
elected a week ago. That contingen-
cy is by no means remote, however
doubtful it may be at this time.
Mr. johnson is the author Of the
present immigration law and favors
still further restrictions. He made no
comment on the course immigration
legislation would likely take in the
event of democratic organization,
but in the two years of the con-
greSs' existence it would have no
opportunity to become revolution
ary. Mr.. L.oover could be counted

Proposal For Dam At Nogales Will
Raise An International Problem

The proposal of Governor Phillips of Arizona
and Governor Elias of Sonora for joint flood control
dam at Nogales will meet with the approval OF the
residents on both sides of the international boundary
at that point The proposition however, raises some
very complicated international problems but ones
that be settled.
The need of some sort of protection to the Sla-
mese twin cities of Nogaes from repetition OF the
floods which have deluged them at intervals in the
past is apparent The two towns, separated only Dy
the boundary line of the two nations, rapidly be-
coming one of the most important ports OF entry along
the international line During the past few years there
has been steady increase in the volume OF tra1tlc
passing both ways through this port.
The plans of those backing the projected highway
from the Canadian border on the north through the
United States to Mexico City in Mexico contemplate
the use Of Nogales as the point where the road will
enter Old Mexico The successful elimination OF those
plans will increase the traffic through the port.
The last flood to visit the two cities and the most
disastrous Of the series since three lives were lost IN
it, came last summer Previous to that the twin cities
had been subjected to floods of lesser volume and We
locity but which collected their toll in property dam
age In the past few years several hundreds OF hous
ands of dollars have been lost through the food sour
ces in the two cities.
The added factor to the losses sustained from
floods is the inability to devise sewer and water sys
tenn which will withstand the fury OF the flood water
On several occasions in the past, both systems nave
been severely damaged on the American side OF the
lne requiring emergency tax leves for their recon-
structiOn
The complication lies in the fact that the flood
control dam, if built, will be erected on Mexican SOIL
some five miles below the boundary line in Old Mex
ico There is question whether public funds of the
United States could be used in constructing any pro-
ect of this kind in foreign nation since it would be
removed from the jurisdiction Of this nation and
thereby beyond the point where adequate government
tai protection for public works could be given The
legality of the plan would be matter for the attorn
ey general of the nation to determine.
But the need of the project, the cost Of which
would be far less than the damage sustained in the
last flood and which will be much smaller than the
damages that will in the FUTURE is something
about which there is no complication It is vital mat
ter with the residents Of the two cities and as the
twins increase in Importance international ports
of entry, the necessity will grow proportionately.
Every effort should be made to carry into reali-
zaton the proposed plan of the two governors. (Ar

Things Are Looking Up

From what we hear from different parts of the
United States, it is New York City that deepest in
the slough Of despond right now, while in almost
cry other section the sunshine is beginning to shine
1t has been tough year; there is no denying
that What with the financial slump that began more
than year ago, and this years widespread drought
and the tumble in the price of wheat and cotton and
the shutting down Of factories, we haven't been
through such 'hard times year since 1921. But it
has its compensations, by comparison with previous
similar situations. Commodity prices have not gone
up but have down. Most Of those thrown out of
work had something ahead to tide them over.
The main thing the matter with the country right
now is timidty The head of big bank said the other
day: "Our bank has more money in it right than
it ever had but where is it? It is mostly in time de-
poss, drawing interest," or in savings accounts Peo-
pie are boarding instead of spending. If everybody
would spend ten percent of what they have saw
ed up it would start the wheels of industry going
gain speedily"
And we hear that the "Buy Now" movement
which started few weeks ago. has spread around the
country and that people everywhere beginning to
take the dimes out of the savings banks and the dol
lars ont of the checking accounts and buy the
des which are for sale everywhere at bargain prices
This is going to be useful Christmas, from all

west and the south against throw
ing down the bars.
The influence of Mr.. Dickstein as
chairman, of course, would be in
favor of generally liberalNing our
immigration laws. He is himself Of
alien birth and represents a dis
trict which is largely alien. For that
matter, any New York district is
composed in great measure of al
lens or sons and daughters of aliens.
MIR. Dickstein for years has been
active in welfare work among them.
There is greater or less resent
ment throughout the east against
the rigidity of the present law. 1t
is upheld generally not only of its
tendency to hold unemployment in
check, but also because Of the ef-
feet an unrestricted immigration
would have upon the country gen.
orally. The bulk OF 1t would settle
in the large cities Of the Atlantic
seaboard and eastern part of the
middle west, accentuating the grow
ing conflicts of interest between
that section and the rest of the
country, west of the Mississippi.
Some have feared that this con-
flict may become so sharp that at
some future time, perhaps, in a dis
tant future, separation of the west
and southwest from the east may
be brought about, not necessarily
by violence but in the natural course
of events, in the growing difference
in the manners and customs of the
two sections. (Arizona Republic)
