Business Confidence Due to Facts

Julius H. Barnes, head Of the industrial advisory COM
mission Of 400 business leaders who are to cooperate with
President Hoover in keeping the business Of the country
on a stabilized keel, makes the inspiriting prediction
that normal conditions will prevail by March l..
Already, according to Mr.. Barnes, business is on the
upgrade. Taking the savings account figures of New
York as a barometer, he points out the fact that these
increased ~$l8000,Ooo in December. Another straw. in
the opinion of Mr.. Barnes, is the fact that insurance
borrowings have declined to normal after running as
high as $780, 0o, 900 in October.
Palpably these conditions are owing to the course taken
by President Hoover in calling in the business and in.
dustrial leaders Of the country for the facts as to condi-
tons following the recent stock market slump. These
facts, showing industry sound and only speculation in
trouble, as they became known to the public in general.
had a good deal to do with laying the economic scare the
market debacle had started.
OF still greater affirmative encouragement were the
announcement Of figures by the utility companies, show
ing contemplated expenditures Of more than >4,7O0,0o0 900
in improvements 5000 right here in the Bismarck
district by the North Dakota Power and Light company.
Lauding President Herbert Hoover for his leadership
in organizing American business in fact finding groups,
Mr.. Barnes declares that as q result Of the recent con-
fercnces and surveys. most Of the adverse psychological
reactions to the market decline have been averted.
Rumors that became general after the decline. stories of
unemployment and Of huge Withdrawals Of saving funds.
have been found to be false. As q result, business and
industrial leaders. knowing the true facts, have been able
to proceed with constructive plans, he says.

A Mysterious Disease Appears

1t seems a far-fetclcd precaution, yet the U. S. Public
Health Service. of which DR.. J. d. Jungman is a rep
r~csentative in this statc-haying been sent here rs
cpidemiologist in the state health departments keep
ing watch all over the country against any outbreaks
Of parrot fever. one of the rarest, most mysterious and
most fatal Of infectious diseases known to medical
science.
The watchfulness is the result of the recent appearance
OF the disease in Annapolis, Md, where a couple have
been fighting for their lives against the dread and
mysterious infection. The fever is known medically as
psttacosis.
The disease is so rare that it has been many years
since it last appeared in this country. The first out
break this time was reported from Buenos Aires, in Ar
gentina. last October. a sailors pet parrot communicate
ing the infection to a company Of actors which had used
the bird in q play. Several Of the actors died, including
one Of the foremost comedians of South America. An
other outbreak in one of the Argentine provinces was
next reported, then the Annapolis cases.
The disease seems to be contracted originally from
parrots and has a notable tendency to become epidemic
in households. All the members of a family may be
stricken, presumably from handling or cleaning out the
cage, OF tho same sick parrot. without the disease spread
ing any further.
There arc cases on record. however, which indicate
that one person has contracted it from another. which
would make possible a widespread epidemic. The fever
has the very high mortality rate Of from IS to 40 per
cent. but the figures do not tell the whole story. for the
ccath rate is much higher among older people than
among children. II Is not even known whether the
~nlortahty is due to tbs disease itself Or to pneumonia
TO- WHICH It seems to be contributing factor.
The actual dssase, according to the Public Health
Scrytcc references, may be Erore prevalent than Is gen.
erauy supposed. due to the likelihood Of diagnosing II
~ p1ettnonia1 Of influenza. Up to the present there fae
been only one serious American outbreak, which caused
considerable mortality in Boston carly in the century
and which was traced to some sick parrots in q depart
ment store which were petted by shoppers.
The disease first appeared in Germany in 1879. but
case reports are lacking. The first great outbreak oc-

Shearer Must STAY AWAY

Dispatches from Washington indicate that william b.
Shearer will be barred from Great Britain il he attempts
to horn his way into the forthcoming naval disarmament
conference at London.
This is very good news. There seems to be a good deal
OF haziness about the exact nature of Shearer's activities
at the last conference. but there is little reason to doubt
that he was sent there to toss q monkey wrench into the
proceedings if he could. and he did his blatant best to
fulfill his mission.
How much influence the man may have had is another
question. However, there is no use In taking any chances.
His sole role at such an affair seems to be that of trouble
maker. Both the United States and Great Britain will
be much better off If siearer Is kept at least 1000 miles
away from London while the conference is in session.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Dirthmafts

Question: Mrs. J. M. 8. writes: my
baby has q birthrnark on the side of
her face. I have been asked several
times II I could not account for 1t.
Well, I can't. 30 I would be glad IL
you could tell me how these marks
are caused"
Answer: The exact cause Of birth
marks is not known. They are usual
ly an impairment or dilatation Of the
capillaries Of the skin. The best
treatment is to have them removed
by carbon dioxid snow or some cleo
trical treatment. It Is better TO have
this done before the child grows up.
as there is less chance OF the scar
being prominent.
Sugar and Fruit
Question: Mrs. w. B. writes: "IAl
one Of your breakfasts in your week.
ly menus you recommend Z dish Of
berries, canned without sugar. Can
sugar be added when eaten. and does
this rule cover oil fruits? 6houlC all
fruits be canned without sugar? II
So can sugar be added when sservcd?"
Answer: II fruit Is cannsd when
ripe, It IS never necessary to Anprove
the taste by adding sugar. You can
now purchase many canned fruits
which are put up without sugar. You
IAN also can the same fruits at home
without using any more sugar than
that contained in the fruit. It is
never advisable to add sugar to any
kind Of fruit. whether fresh or
canned.
Eating Moth Balls
Question: w. ]. K. writes: what
are moth balls made Of? I know a
woman who eats them. Will they
harm her? She has stomach trouble
and says they relieve her?
Answer: Moth balls are composed
principally Of camphor which Is a
powerful irritant ana stimulat1t and
which is poisonous in overdoses, but
having a sedative' effect in small
quantities . I would not advise its
use internally.

Boston, April 16 (UP)-Johnny Farr, rugged little Cleveland light weight, nipped Dick Honeyboy Fin negan's comeback attempt in the bud, easily outclassing the local fighter in a 10 round bout at Me chanic's building here last night.
 Finnegan was not in it after the first round. The aggressive Farr swarmed all over his opponent. lodged under jabs and pounded away with both hands at close quarters. Though there were no knockdowns, several times during the bout 1t appeared that Farr's wild swings had Finnegan in a bad way and only holding tactics saved him from more serious consequences.
