ST. VINCENT GROUP
CELEBRATESFEAST
Charity Society Holds Ses.
sion Yesterday, With %
Churches Represented.

Twenty-three parish churches were
represented at a general meeting of the
st. Vincent de Paul Society Of Wash
ington, held yesterday morning at st.
Patrick's Church, in honor Of the feast
of st. Vincent de Paul, the patron saint
OF organized charity. About $50 mem
bers of the society received holy COM
munion.
Rev. Dr. Maurice Sheehy. assistant to
the rector Of Catholic University, who
preached the sermon, called attention to
a recent survey of non-sectarian insti-
tutions which disclosed the fact that
American youth is receiving little or no
instruction in religion. The business
meeting which followed was presided
over by George F. Cleary. who is pres
ident Of the Particular c. neil of the
society. Reports from t. % parish
conferences Indicated that during the
past quarter more than $1l,500 was ex-
pended by the society In relieving more
than 800 persons in distress.
John c. Bowen of Georgetown Uni
versity, reported for the Special Works
Committee and showed that several
hundred confessions had been heard at
the penal institutions visited by the
committee. He also pointed out that
the Special Works Committee offers a
means for the layman to do the bid
ding of Christ, who urged men to
visit the prisoner"
AS the guest speaker, Col. Claude
Jones, superintendent of the National
Training School for Boys, urged the
members of the society to continue their
interest In this institution. The moral
value of work done by organizations like
the st. Vincent de Paul Society, he
said, was of great assistance in making
good citizens out of the deficient boys
he receives at the school.
Rev. Ralph M. Burke, o. p, prior OF
st. Dominic's Church, who discussed So
cial conditions, said his parish Is over
loaded with relief cases due to the
pressure of high rents. DR.. John
O'Grady, director of the Catholic Char
tiles of the District, predicted that the
next few years would mark the st. Vim
cent de Paul Society as a strong arm IN
restoring social and economic tram

FARM BOARD IS HIT
AT BUSINESS PROBE
Completes With Private Enterprise
in Vast Speculative Ventures,
Theis Holds.
Nv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated FfeSS.
KANSAS CITY, July 25.-The Fed
eral Farm Board was the object of an
attack by the grain trade today before
the House committee investigating Gov
ernment competition with private ousl-
ness.
More than 20 accusations of unfair
competition were contained in brie1
read by Frank A. Theis, former pres1-
dent Of the Kansas City Board of Trade
and first witness in the three days
allotted to the testimony OF grain men:
"The United States Government Tor
several years has been engaged in busi-
ness en- a gigantic scale In direct COM
petition with its citizens and taxpayers
through the agricultural marketing act
and the Federal Farm Board" Mr..
Theis said.
& He charged the Government was
competing with private individuals and
CORPORATIONS In every branch Of the
grain business. He claimed 1t had
bought and sold grain in large volume
and had supplied its subsidiaries with
Treasury funds at lower than CONNER
cial rates.
"a group of corporations was created
which the Government falsely calls CO.
operatives, but which are neither farm
crowned nor farmer controlled" he
said. The witness described these
groups as mere subterfuges, through
which the Farm Board conducts its
tremedous speculative ventures.
"The Federal Farm Board" he de-
clared, has wasted vast sums of public
money in futile and ill-advised stabili-
zation and other ccstlya'and socialistic
schemes"

CHICAGO, July 25.-The health OF
mice and men, like their beSt-laid plans,
often fails-and In the same manner.
DR.. Maude Slye, cancer research
worker at the University of Chicago,
discovered this common fraility % years
ago Upon it she has based expert
mentation which has won her recog-
milton as one of Americas foremost au-
thorities on cancer, and enthroned her
as magistrate over metropolis of 10000
mice.

as well as workshop. Today, she look
ed back over her achievements, dis
cussed her work and plans, and per-
formed her Ill ,001th autopsy.
DR.. Slye's observations have been
generally accepted as indicating that
susceptibility to cancer is inherited, and
that IL persons from cancerous families
were mated to offspring Of cancer-im-
mune families, the disease could be
stamped out.
In mice so in men.
"Young doctors just beginning the
practice of their profession will treat
three generations" she said. "If cancer
natients viii cooperate with them in
srInpIying data on the history of the
disease Il, their families, scientific mat
ing would produce race free from the

R0BBERIES INVESTIGATED
Armed Bandit Duet Obtain $751;
SO From Manager of Motor
Company.

Three reports of robberies of gasoline
stations and taxi drivers over the week
end were being investigated today by
the police.
Judson r. Edwards, manager Of the
Logan Motor Co., 1900 block Of e street,
said he was bound and gagged last night
by two armed bandits who stole $131.62
from the cash register in the filling sta
tion he operates.
At O'Clock yesterday morning two
armed men forced William Pratt into
rest room at his gasoline station,
Massachusetts, avenue and Second street
northeast, bound and gagged him and
escaped with S12.
Robert M. Floodas of the 1900 block
of r street, was robbed of 80 cents and
his taxicab by lone bandit who en-
gagged his cab at Sixteenth and S streets
last night. The robbery occurred at
Ninth and Perry streets, where the rob-
ber bound Fqoodas hand and foot with

MANAGER OF 10000 MICE
FINDS WAY TO END CANCER
Rodent Researches Lead Her to Theory
That Scientific Mating Would Stamp
Out Disease In Humans.

However" she added, romance
among mice In a laboratory is more
easily arranged than among humans" !"
DR.. Slye chose mice, she said, for
two reasons-because she likes them
and because she learned that cancer
affects them and humans in nearly the
same manner One exception, which
she is now studying, is that most hu-
man cancers occur in the intestinal
tract, while mice develop skin tumors
chiefly. This difference, she theorized,
is due to human diet. She is expert
menting with diets for selected mice.
She also is concentrating in an at
tempt to prove a common factor con-
trolls the various types of cancerous
growths
DR.. Slye has found that cancer sus-
ceptibility follows the Mendelian law
of the inheritance of acquired charac-
teristics-that the disease Is transmit
ted according to definite ratio. This
discovery has meant segregation, selec-
tive mating, recording the medical
genealogies Of mice, whose pedigrees
extend back to 1908-hundreds Of years,
rodential1y speaking
During this period, her interest in
mice as mice, DR.. Slye said, has per-
sisted. To her, they are not mere sub
jects for detached scientific study, but
beautiful, intelligent creatures, with
definite personalities-like humans. but
easier to manage"

SHIN BONE OF BABY CHICK
USED TO HELP SCIENCE
Vitamin d Content of Cod Liver
Oils Ascertained Through
Unusual Experiment.

ST. PAUL R.-Shin bones of baby
chicks have been added to the list of
aids to science at the University of
Minnesota Farm School.
The vitamin D content of cod liver
oils now can be ascertained, say H. A.
Halyorson and L. L. Lachat, chemists,
through examination of the chicks shin
bones, or tibiae.
Groups of day-old chicks are fed
mixed diets, including the cod liver oil
In varying amounts, for five days. The
birds then are killed and the lower left
leg bone of each is removed, dried. and
crushed.
After being treated with alcohol and
ether, the crushed bone is "ashed" in an
electric furnace. The percentage Of
ash in the bone indicates the amount
of calcium or lime deposited. Vitamin
D assists in the depositfng of this sub
stance.
A large percentage of ash indicates
a strong shin bone and an oil rich in
vitamin D content.

NEW YORK, July 25.-When the
steamer Luis I entered the port of Al
meria, Spain, towing the fishing smack
San Antonio, which had been found
with all sails set, but without crew,
miles off the coast, similarity was
noted to the greatest of ell sea mysteries
that of the Marie Celeste.
Spanish port authorities explained
that the San Antonio probably" had
been swept from its moorings during a
storm last week, but as in most sea
mysteries, the obvious ordinarily gets
little attention when in competition
with the fantastic.
Ever since men have gone down to
the sea in ships there have been ocean
mysteries, but none so weird as the tale
of the Marie Celeste. For 60 years
this phantom ship has kept her secret.
Ship Moved Curiously.
It was on December S, 1872, that the
British barque Del Gratia came upon
the brigantine Marie Celeste headed for
the Strait of Gibraltar under full sail.
The curious movements OF the ship led
to the belief that no one was in charge,
SO Capt. Boyce of the Del Gratia
boarded her.
The ship was deserted. The cargo
was intact, the boat was sound. there
was no water in the hold, and the spars,
ropes and sails were aloft and undam-
aged. No small boats were missing
The mystery deepened when the
boarding party entered the cabin. On
the table was half-eaten meal, at
which four, including child, evidently
had sat not long since. The child had
almost finished plate of porridge. BY
the captains plate lay two halves of a
hard-boiled egg, both in the shell.
Close by was an upright and uncorked
bottle of cough medicine, indicating the
topple it over.
Under the needle of sewing ma
chine was a child's pinafore. Whoever

NEW YORK, July 25.-Two women
Of Akron, Ohio, mother and daughter,
who married San Bias Indians in the
hope that they would reside in Central
American palaces. returned today on
the steamer Ancon, destitute, disillu-
stoned and determined to go back
never"
The women, Mrs. Charles Williams
65, and Mrs. Gladys White Eagle, 80,
were rescued from the isolated jungle
on the San Bias reservation, 800 miles
from the Canal Zone, by a Red Cross
plane Their fare on the steamer was
paid by public subscription in Cristobal.
The San Bias Indians, husbands of
the women, appeared in a circus in
Akron some months ago. They said
they were mobiles of civilized tribe and
they spoke of palaces. Instead the
women found a jungle that was not so
kind to them.

ped stitching in the middle of sleeve.
The captains cabin was shipshape and
the cash box was untouched
Explanations of the mystery have
been offered yearly since, but none
holds the ring of truth.
Another weird sea mystery Is pre-
sented by the British steamer Waratah,
which put to sea from Durham, Natal,
South Africa on July 26, 1909, bound
for Cape Town; with 90 passengers. At
6 am. on the 81 she was sighted by
the Clan MacIntyre. The two boats ex-
changed the usual signaled pleasantries
and the Waratah passed on into the
unknown. She was never heard of
again.
French Ship Mystery.
A similar tale is told more than a
century earlier of two French frigates.
the BouSsole and the Astrolabe, which
were dispatched in 1875 on an expe-
dition of discovery in the South Seas.
The schips had many adventures and
eventually sailed into the blue from
Botany Bay, Australia, in 1888. Many
years later supposed relics of the ex-
pSulIlUu Welt lOuIlO OIl all lSldllu.
On April 6, 1901, the ship Commodore
put into Tebo Yacht Basin, in Brook
1yn, under sail, but without a crew. The
ships registry was never traced. Two
years ago a note was found In a bottle
off Florida reading Send help at once.
Our ship, the Commodore, was wrecked
two weeks ago." 1t was assumed to
refer to the same boat.
A Greek steamer which stopped at
Galveston last May told of sighting a
sailing vessel, the John and Mary, of
Bermuda, her sails furled, but without
soul on board.
The greatest ocean mystery Of legend
is the Flying Dutchman, doomed to
sail the seas endlessly. Some mariners
say the Flying Dutchman is not all
mythology.
