Takes Tens OF Thousands OF
human Lives Yearly

WASHINGTON, D. C-"Both
the sporadic and epidemic -preva-
lence Of (infantile paralysis) quite
constantly reaches its maximum
during the late summer and autumn
months. This seasonable prevalence
is one Of the most constant chArac-
teristics Of the disease. In this re-
spect it closely resembles tho intes-
final infections and the in~sect-borne
diseases" So reads . recent report
of the United States Public Health
Service.
This Is really q stern warning
against Flies, Mosquitoes, Reaches,
Bed Bugs, Fleas, Ants and Moths.
Deaths attributed to Flies alone
are over 10000 q year. Autos kill but
$4,000 according to 1880 statistics.
FLY-TOX is the surest, quickest
killing household spray made. Be-
cause it IL far moro powerful, it is
far more economical. "A little goes q
much longer way. It il pleasantly
fragrant and will not stain.
The many limitations Of FLY-TOX
should be avoided, as the extermina-
ton Of disease-carrying pests is too
important for useless experimental
ton, FLY-TOX by test is best. At
all good drug and grocery stores.

American Federal Reserve system. the

It is understood that the Federal
Reserve bank and the Bank Of France

Of the Bank OF England, must talk

DR.. Luther made an impromptu
speech to the press In the lobby OF
the bank at the end Of the confer
ence.
His eyes blazed and his teeth bit
off words as he said:
"The greatest mistake OF modern
times is the failure to understand
that the German crisis Is q world
problem and affects humanity as q
whole. Germany is getting poorer
every day. One Of the most impor-
tant economic factors in the world Is
getting more helpless daily.
Germany Big Buyer
I'm the present crisis the world can
not afford to lose Germany as q
buyer Of raw materials and manufac-
tured goods. Germany's plight Is hui
manfty's plight which happens to be
conferred in Germany. Foreign courl-
tries alone can save Germany at the
present juncture. They must do sc
in their own we'll understood interest
and regardless Of any irrelevant con-
siderations."
Clement Moret. governor Of the
Bank Of France, spent the morning
with Pierre Flandin, minister OF fl
nance, reporting on Mondays meet
ing of the World bank directors.
There was no official announce.
ment, but it is understood M. Flandin
is in accord with the bank head re-
specting French participation In the
extension Of the 1000, 900 credit
granted Germany last month and due

went into effect on the day Of the

ling force.
John Boles plays Prince Dimitrl

etic; his speaking voice rings with SIN

DANGER MONTHS
ON HIGHWAYS
Highway Chief Engineer Urges Ex-
ira Caution At This Time

From August to December are the
critical months period of the year
for safety on the highways, w. w.
Mack, chief engineer of the State
Highway Department said in an ad-
dress over a Wilmington radio sta
tion. He said accidents and fatalt-
ties increase during these months
and extra caution must be taken.
Careful observation, Mr.. Mack
said, has shown that driving speeds
increase and with increased speed
traffic accidents mount high.
The killing of IS persons a year,
Mr.. Mack continued on the Della
ware highways by automobiles
should be sufficient cause for all to
pause and consider the causes and
remedies. Among the principal acci-
dent causes listed by Mr.. Mack are
speed maniacs, jay walkers, drunken
drivers, drivers with poor vision
sleepy drivers, and motorists who
drive past signals.

STILLWELL SLAIN
BY UNKNOWN. IS
VERDICT OF JURY
COrOner's Inquest Decides
Mans Death Was Due
To SuffOcatiOn
MAN SHOT TESTIFIES
Walter Johnson Relates
How He Was Shot While
On Ride To Milford

Murder by suffOcatiOn was the de-
cision handed down by coroner's
jury at l o'clock here Tuesday NOR
ming in the death of Earl Stillwell,
near here several weeks ago.
The jury was unable to come to
a conclusion until it had been clos
eted for nearly two hours after
hearing testimony in which a ride
on the night of Stillwell's death and
the shooting of Walter Johnson by
Stillwell were related.
The theory that Stillwell had been
poisoned was dispelled when a ply
sician reported that an analysis Of
his stomach showed that IL contain
ed no poison.
The official verdict was that Still
well "came to his death by suffo
cation at the hands of party or par
ties unknown" His bo0y was found
in a field the morning after Walter
Johnson was treated at a Milford
hospital for a gun wound in the
back of his head which he itated
was inflicted by Stillwell.
Johnson, whose home IS i'll Middle
town, but who had been managing
a grocery store in Georgetown,
where he met Stillwell, told of rid
ing to Milford at Stillwell's invita-
tion and a series of strange incl
dents that eliminated in the shoot
ing of himself and the mysterious
death of Stillwell.
