SUGAR LOAF JOB
 NOT so SWEET

Longmont, Col-UP)-The job of being mayor of Sugar Loaf is not so sweet as 1t sounds.
 Take it from Sam Craig, opera tor of the Good Friday Mine, one of the regions champion fid- dlers," and chief executive of Su- gar Loaf, the troubles of a small community may not be so multi tudinous as they are in larger ones, but they are as important and as delicate.
 Sugar Loaf, for your informal tion, Is a community of 80 persons, in central Boulder county.
 Most of the citizens are miners. The Good Friday shut down for an occasional rest period, Craig told Sheriff Robert Blum, of Boul- der county. in a confidential talk. and during that time he catches up on his Adding.
 'I'm sort of a community shoulder for folks to weep on,' Craig remarked. When they get too much for me. I send them to the sheriff for advice"
 Craig is full to the brim with good stories of the peculiarities of his fellow citizens. One of the best is about hermit, who owns one of the best tungsten mines in the re- zion. Rich with ore, the hermit will not allow the mine to be op- erated or won't work 1t himself.
 And it's the gospel truth, T Craig said, "the fellow buys pail of shoes, and wears one new shoe and one old one.

NORWICH MAN HEADS POULTRY ASSOCIATION
NEW METHOD
 TO DIAGNOSE
 CANCER FOUND
Expert Finds Blood Test Reveals Presence of
 Disease

Berlin--A new method of diag- nosIng cancer. which, 1t is expect ed, will be of great assistance in checking the disease in it's early stages, is claimed by Dr J. H. Fuchs, blood expert.
 The Fuchs method makes it possible to detect the presence of pernicious swelling, or tumor, in the patients body, through analysis of a small quantity of the blood. It is also possible to de- termine whether a condition of tumor alone is present, and result of the infectious condition. Thus, 1t is claimed that one of the most difficult problems of cancer. the diagnosis in it's early stages, and especially with intes- tinal cancer, is near solution.
 The Fuchs Method
 The Fuchs method. which Is the result of years of experimentation, lies in the discovery that the blood of person suffering from cancer, remains unchanged under this an- alysis, while that of healthy per- son is partially destroyed.
 The blood is divisible into three parts: cells, serum, and fiber. Dr Fuchs found that the blood fiber of cancer sufferer maintained its form when mixed again with it's own blood serum. On the other hand it slowly disintegrated when mixed with the blood serum of a healthy person, or even of one suffering from disease other than cancer. This disintegration process can be measured exactly by the Fuchs method, through an- alysis of the nitrate which is re- leased in the process.
 Years of Research
 The last step required years of research before it could be brought to the point where measurements minute enough for practical diag- nosis could be made by a process simple enough to be useful in an ordinary laboratory.
 Dr Fuchs made tests with more than 2,S00 cases, comparing his finding with clinical diagnosis. The results were completely suc- cessful in more than 90 per cent of the cases. Results were inex- act only with cancer of the larynx and oesophagus. These form a special field in cancer, but are somewhat easier of treatment.

|SEAl-TARIFF
 ACT OF BRITAIN
 TO AID COTTON
One of Conntry's Most Depressed Industries
 Assisted

London-CUP)-Britain's third application of her semi-tariff-the abnormal importations act-has been directed to assist one of the most depressed industries in the country, the Lancashire cotton manufacturers.
 Just as the first order applied duties of 50 per cent on a number of woolen imports, thereby assist ing the Yorkshire wooden industry. so the most recent order. applied December IT, puts a 50 per cent duty on manufacturers wholly or partly of cotton.
 The value of imports of all these articles was about t912,000 in both October and November, as com pared with a monthly evarage of f6S4,000 in 1890.
 Strike Threatened
 It is hoped that the cotton indus try will settle the internal wage and hour dispute. which still threatens strike.
 The abnormal importations or- der No did not, however. meet with general approval. There still had been a faint hope that iron and steel would be included, de- spite the indication given by Pres ident of the Board of Trade Walter Runciman that they would not.
 At the same time, certain sec- tions of the Lancashire cotton in- dustry are pointing out anomalies in the order, which has omitted cartain kinds of cotton ma1ufac-. lures, equally in need of assistance.
 Other Duties
 Competent observers are of the opinion that the next order on class III articles may contain du- ties on iron and steel. and other cotton goods.
 The articles which come under the heading of class III. and which have not yet had an abnormal duty put on them are by no means ex- hausted. The third order has af- fected United States imports much more than either of the first two orders, and 1t is foreseen that they still will be more affected as fur ther orders are applied.

None are known to have occurred along the immedi- ate coasts of the United States.

FAMED CHARIOT
 PLANS RETURN

London (UP) - In a small, cheap room near the fine theater which once blazoned his name in electric lights, Andre Chariot is planning his comeback. Chariot. until a few years ago, was the Flo iZegfeld of Europe. He had spent 25 years building up the reputation that enabled him to pack houses on both sides of the Atlantic with "Charlot's Revue"
 Ten years ago he pledged his per- sonal assets to syndicate with which he was connected. It ran into difficulties, but no sooner was this trouble overcome than Char. lot suffered other financial losses. He put himself into the hands of his creditors and worked for them. Finally, all he had left was the lease on a valuable theater, and the theater robbed that of most of it's value. Chariot became a bank rupt.
 Now I hope to be free man in another three months," he said after his discharge from bank ruptcy, subject to the usual term of suspension. "I mean to come back. After all, 49 is not very old. And have a few ideas"

All Smith Will
 Give Decision
(Continued from Page 1.)
He may announce his candidacy. HA may annniInoa ha mill s,af.x,a If

He may announce his candidacy.
 He may announce he will permit his friends to use his name in state primaries but renounce any intention to obtain delegates or the nomination unless there is a "de- mand" for him to do SO.
 He may outline what he believes should be the party's platform in the next campaign, it's plans on prohibition probably, and declare he will support any candidate who supports that platform or plank.
 Neither of the second two courses would involve Smith in an active campaign fight with other possible candidates-his protege Roosevelt, Newton D. Baker, Albert c. Ritchie, Speaker Garner and numerous oth- CT favorite sons.
 Neither course would deprive him of his convention power, his veto power over the candidacy of any man whose platform or per- sonal political beliefs were not to Smiths liking.
 There have been repeated de- mands from Smiths ardent fol- lowers that he permit use of his name in at least three state pri- maries-New Hampshire, Massa- chusetts, and Pennsylvania.
 Roosevelt's name already has been entered in New Hampshire and Pennsylvania. The democratic organization in New Hampshire purportedly is for Roosevelt, but Smith is conceded a good chance there. It Is the first primary in which a test of the strength of the two men may develop.
 New England news dispatches Thursday indicated Smith already had told friends there they might use his name in the primary. Smiths office did not deny the dis patches, but said:
 No decision has been made about anything"
 Mayor James F.. Curley, ardent Roosevelt supporter in Boston. de- clared before leaving New York aboard the Lapland Thursday that seventy out of every hundred on the streets in Boston think Roose- welt is the logical candidate. Mir Smith," he added, Ifs too intelli- gent a man to harbor such de- fusion as running for the presi- dency again.
 Curley claimed that Roosevelt had assured him he believed in a "prohibition referendum" Smith and Roosevelt have been considered personal and political allies until plans for the 1882 presidential campaign were gener- ally discussed, and since then there have been reports of "break." Roosevelt spoke for Smith in 1920 at San Francisco, nominated him at Madison Square garden in 1924 against William c. McAdoo. and nominated him again in 1928 at Houston. Smith practically dic- tated Roosevelt's nomination as governor in 1928, when Roosevelt won the state and Smith lost 1t. | Roosevelt then rolled up an un- precedented plurality in the 1930 | election.
