LISTED At 10

NEW YORK. April 29.-A total
Of 10 lynchings, in five States,
occurred in 1929, according to
tabulations made public by the
commission on race relations of
the Federal Council Of Churches

OF last years lynchings, four
were in Florida, three in Texas
and one each in Kentucky, Ten
neSSee and Mississippi. Seven of
the victims were negroes, three
whites. In addition to the actual
lynchingS, there were 81 instances
in which, according to DR.. Mon
roe N. Work, of TuSkeegee In
stitute, Officers of the law pre-
vented lynchingS." In this cate
CORY were listed cases where
prisoners were removed or prison
guards augmented.
The commission made public its
honor roll" of States with re.
spect to lynchings. beginning
with the States where there has
never been a lynching, and bring
ing the list on down according
to the recentness of the last
lynching in the State. It shows
that four States in which lynch
ingS occurred in 1928 had clean

But fish can hear sounds much
lower than the ones we can. DR..
Won Frisch could not find a lower

higher ones so far as bringing

What fishes can hear, how well
they can hear. and whether they
can tell sounds apart, have long
been disputed questions.
A German scientist, DR.. Karl
Won Frisch, of the University Of
Munich, has lately found out a
good deal about it, and at the
meeting Of the National Academy
o. Sciences in Washington yes
terday he told his American col,
leagues about his experiments.
He blew whistle or sounded a
tuning fork or made some other
musical sound whenever he fed
a certain tankful Of minnows.
Before long the little fish learned
to associate the sound with the
fact that they were going to be
fed, and they would come up

MEASLES TIME

Measles is an epidemic disease which appears in different commu mites with a constant regularity every two or three years. The denscr the population the shorter the period between cpidemics.
 The onset of the epidemic corrc- spends roughly with the beginning Of winter weather. The cause of measles still remains in question. Some years ago Dr. Tunnicliff an nounCed the discovery of the germ of measles, This claim has, how ever, no: been substantially Nali- dated by others,
 While measles ordinarily tends 10 be mild disease. it is, on the other hand. liable to become complicated by bronchial pneumonia, in which instances the affection is serious Recent experiences have shown that measlcs can be controlled by the use Of convalescent serum and by par cntal blood
 Convalescent measles serum the liquid part of the blood) is taken from individuals who are conva- lescins - that is. recovering from measles. When this serum is in jected into an individual who has never before had measles, but who has been exposed. or is suffering from the disease it tends to protect them.
 Convalescent measles serum is difficult 10 procure. and hence it's use is limited to those cases where the emergency is acute that is. where the children are severely ill, or where there are other complica- tions.
 For general immunization the use of parental blood is recommended. This is the blood taken from the parents, presumably nor nal adults who have had measles This blood. while not as strongly (protecting) as conva- lescent serum. has the capacity to render a case of measles milder than usual.
 It is now being generally advised that young infants, or ailing chill dren who have been or are liable to be exposed 10 measles infection, should be protected by receiving an injection Of parental whole blood.
