kept from the newspapers and police.
The friends of the victims were ter
rified with threats and menaced with
retaliation if they talked.
In old times, persons taken in war
were regarded as slaves. but they
could usually buy back their liberty.
But these were those taken in open
war. Modern kidnapping is far worse
than that. The kidnaper takes big
risks for money. He does not care,
however. He would rather be in a
prison than at liberty without money.

FINAL JAKWAY
TALK TODAY

Beauty and harmony in the
home is not achieved by money,
but in taste and care, Bernard
]. Jakway, interior decorator,
and author told an audience
yesterday at the National Mu-
scum, Tenth st. and Constitu-
ton Ave, where the Home Fur.
nishings Institute is being held
under the auspices of The Wash
ington Times.
Mr.. Jakway, spoke on THE
Secret Harmony in Home Fur
nishings.' The final lecture viii
be delivered at the museum at
1880 o'clock this afternoon. The
subject will be Spending Money
Wisely for Home Furnishings"
He said in part yesterday:
ITO be harmonious, and at
the same time interesting and
beautiful, q room must reveal
many elements Of likeness and
many elements Of unlikeneSS,
or contrast; but the Ekenesses
must be more common and
more important than the diff
ferenceS."
Mr.. Jakway emphasized that
a beautiful home may be
achieved with the inexpensive,
simple materials.
Using furniture, rugs, drapery
fabrics and accessories, Mr.. Jak-
way illustrated how harmonious
groups are built up. He illus
trated how certain effects are
produced by the use Of heavy,
severe furniture and dark fab.
RIGS. He built up about a dozen
groups, to illustrate harmony in
line, color and texture.

'Q.NS9 AS part Of a general

tempt to eliminate three episcopal
areas, it was learned as the tenth
day of the general conference be-
gan.
Upon the need for saving money
there is little difference of opinion,
but the question is-which areas
shall go?
1t was commonly believed when
the conference opened that Hel.

Paris. France. were the most in.
active ones, but the committee on
episcopacy, after days Of discus
sion, has decided on Buffalo.
N. Y: Indianapolis, Ind, and
Helena, Mont.
When the Rev. DR.. Orien w.
Fifer. of Indiana. chairman of
the committee, makes his report
to the convention today. lively op
position is anticipated.
One of the reasons for aban.
doning the idea Of dropping Gov.
tngton, it is believed. is that the
bishop of that district is the Rev.
Matthew w. Clair, for whom,
since he is negro, there would
be difficulty in selecting another
area.
There was talk of sending him
to Atlanta, to take charge Of work
among negroes, but the conference
since has gone on record against
all racial distinctions, and this
would not be in line with that
policy.

Olympic" in which it was advertised
that some $4,000 persons would play
l6 hands of bridge. The first bit of
baloney in this enterprise was the
announcement that the hands, which
were supposed to have been given
only to trusted captains and to have
been kept secret until play started,
had become public. One man report
ed he had received three documents
outlining the whole business day or
two before the olympic" was to start.
The upshot was a great to 90 by the
newspapers and more publicity for
Culbertson.
With so much said about it before
hand, it was necessary for the news
papers to tell how the thing came
out and to tell about CulbertsonS par
for the layout. That meant more
publicity. Altogether it was as nea.
package of baloney as has been
handed to the American press since
Culbertson first worked his ingenu-
ity in the battle of the century.
The Tribune has not mentioned the
matter in it's news columns and this
may be accepted as its explanation
If the public is interested in GILBERT
son it need only to say SO and this
newspaper will give him due atten-
ton But until then it shall accept
the verdict which seemed to be gen.
eral after the battle of the century,"
The judgment then seemed to be that
much ado had been created about
nothing and that neither Culbertson,
his partners or their opponents had
any real license to hold themselves
out as experts.
The judgment may be sound enough
with regard to bridge but in one thing
Culbcrtson is undeniably a master
That is the art of getting his name
on the front pages and of cashing in
this publicity at SO much per lesson.

After the Democratic stampede on

gloomy about the Democratic party.
Many felt it had kicked away as

party had few days ago of winning

won their point
If they should submit in the

they would betray again the mandate

will do that.

Decay Of Teeth
Still. Puzzle
Doctors
BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN
Editor. Journal Of the American
Medical Association

Editor, Journal Of the American
Medical Association
So much work has been done IN
recent years on the causes Of dental
decay that physicians and dentists
are beginning to have a real insight
into the subject.
Dental decay is no respecter of per-
sons; it affects the rich and the
poor, the young and the old. 1t may
be found in those who are other
wise healthy and those who are SUI
ferers from chronic disease. Between
80 and IS per cent of children be-
tween 10 and 20 years OF age have
dental carries.
In survey of the subject, DR..
Martha Koehne has reviewed the
most prominent opinions of leading
Investigators. There is, OF course,
first Of all the idea that good or bad
teeth are inherited. However, mar
riages are not made from health
points of view and though heredity
may play some part, 1t is not pos
'sible to determine that part exactly.
A Clean Tooth Does Decay
For a while the slOgan-"A clean
tooth never decays was believed to
express the truth, but serious STU
dents of dental disease have long
since discarded this conception. Peo-
pie who keep their mouths Scrupul-
ously clean may have cavities, while
others with visibly dirty mouths have
none.
A survey of the subject made by a
group of Wisconsin investigators in
dictated that mouth washes are not
dependable protection against dental
decay.
For while it was thought that the
chewing of hard food was a valu-
able measure, but today it is believed
that such chewing is helpful only to
the gum tissue and has little, if any
thing to do with the permanence of
the teeth.
There are many theories that con-
Germ the general chemistry of the
body SO far as acid or alkaline diets
may be involved. Some of these
theories place most of the emphasis
on vitamins A, G and D, and other
theories put most of the emphasis on
the calcium and phosphorus in the
diet in association with the vitamirs.
X X X
Vtamins Puzzling
1t is difficult to correlate the body
chemistry as the basis of dental de-
cay with the fact that certain teeth,
for instance the molars, decay more
rapidly and more frequently than the
incisors. If the matter is one of
blood supply and nutrition primarily.
why are not all of the teeth equally
susceptible?
There are parts of the world where
ricketts,, due to deficiency of vita
min D, does not occur. and yet many
people in these areas suffer with the
condition called carries or general
dental decay.
There is also, of course, the infec-
