TOURISTS CAMP
HERE LAUDED /.

The official publication Of
United States military surgeons
in its May issue, released today,
cites as one of the best conducted,
most sanitary tourist camps in
the country the Municipal Tour
iSt Camp here.
Major w. o. Wetmore, sanitary
officer for public buildings and
parks, is the author Of the arti-
Gle on tourist camp sanitation
in which the local camp is de-
scrihed.
Thorough cleansing of cabins
and tents with the aid Of modern
equipment daily, sterilization of
sheets, blankets and floors, and
other sanitary precautions are
held by Major Wetmore to make
the washington camp an example
of camp cleanliness. In single
day the camp has accommodated
as many as 1888 persons, but
since it was authorized by Con-
greSs in 1921 no epidemic has
ever broken out there, he said.

SOBR|ETY WINS,
\
/ ARE TOLD

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., May 3
lO.N.S9.-The tables are turned
On the anti-prohibitionists in to-
days serious crisis in the fight
for a sober world" declared
Bishop william F. Anderson, OF
Boston, in an address before the
general superintendents OF the
Methodist Episcopal Church IN
uuadrennial conference here.
While repealists may feel their
opinions are not being respected
in certain States, they must not
forget that the situation was
precisely the other way round
before the national prohibition
law was passed, he pointed out.
And that law, the Eighteenth
Amendment, still is the proper
method for reducing the con-
sumption Of alcohol, the Meth
odist bishops believe.
AS a possible substitute for ma
tional prohibition. nothing has
been suggested but local option,
the bishop stated. His report was
the considered judgment of the
whole board of 38 bishops. He
continued:
Leave it to the communities
that want the traffic back to
solve the problem for all Of
! MS? Leave it to the sidewalks
Of New York and the slums Of
: ChicagO! A form of State con-
! troll is now proposed which is
said to be different. II is rep
resented to possess all sorts of
political magic. 1t shall never
be-"
The bishop reminded his large
Audience-850 men and women
from all States and 10 foreign
fields-that alcohol. poverty,
crime, i'll children, disease and
corrupt politics were "all of a
piece" and that the passage of
the prohibition law made the
connection LESS obvious"
Enthusiastic applause greeted
the bishops announcement that
the modern machine" had been
wrongly used to benefit the few
instead of the many. Industry
has given labor a grudging INSULT
cient wage, he charged. He said:
"We know now that the
Kingdom of God cannot be
built upon the poverty of the
many and the absurd and cruel
wealth of the few"

Five-Year Plan of economy and
naturalization in the German
Army has been adopted by the
Minister of Defense and will be
carried out ruthlessly to get

theater he learned something
about physics that is written in
no textbook, something of funda-
mental scientific Importance. No
one knows.
DR.. Quinby smiles, says Moth
ing, and continues his pursuit of
magic wherever he finds it. His
proposed trip to Chicago to view
engineer Joseph Freud's Roulette
illusion (Which is somewhat SINH
lar to DR.. Hooker's) is typical Of
him.
Professor Quimby's interest in
magic dates back to day a num-
Der of years ago when tall
young Horace Mann instructor
asked if he could not use
Quimby's physics laboratory to
make a table.
The tall young teacher was
John Mulholland, then an anna
teur giving magic shows in his
spare time. What he was trying
to make in the Columbia physics
laboratory was new "gimmick."
Quimby got interested and
helped him make it; show him
how it could be improved. Quinn
by has been making "gimmicks'
ever since and inventing scientific
illusions.

U, S, HOLDS ALOOF
IN ORIENT STRIFE
Japan'S Invasion of JehoI
to Be Ignored.

By UHtted RresS
WASHINGTON, July %. - The
state department plans for the
present to ignore officially Japan's
invasion of Jehol province, China's
storehouse of coal, oil, and timber.
This tentative policy is believed
by high officials to be the wisest
course just now AS far as can be
seen today, there will be no imme-
date protest to Toxic.
The League of Nations investi-
eating commission, including an
American member, is now in China
1t is believed here that this body
can make any necessary recommen-
dations to the league.
The departments policy does not
mean that the United States has
lost interest in defending the open
door" doctrine and the nine-poWer
treaty, it merely indicates that no
advantage is seen in further dis
cussions with Toxic just now, even
though officials are concerned seri-
ously about Jehol.
The Japanese consul general in
Mukden is known to have assured
western observers that the bomb
ing of Chaoyang by Japanese
airplane recently did not portend
the capture Of Jehol.

Promotion of trade among
the units of the empire natur-
ally came first.
Chief delegates of Great Britain
and some of the greatest dominions
Thursday outlined concrete aims
and offers upon which it was posi-
BILE to begin the weeks of negotia-
tions that may eliminate in series
of trade agreements that will have
worldwide repercussions.
Closed Shop Held Impossible
Delegations met this morning to
discuss the exact proposals they will
make before the committees, and
the leading delegates assembled to
pick out the personnel of the five
major committees.
Though most of the opening
speeches were optimistic, a majority
of the spokesman for the ten units
represented here brought out the
Importance of world trade to them,
and the impossibility of trying to
make closed shop of the empire.
1t was Stanley Baldwin, prom
ising that Great Britain could grant
wider preferences to dominions I'M
der the mother country's new high
tariff system, who pointed out that
70 per cent of the empires trade
was with foreign nations.

World Economic Conference Is
Set as Goal of British Empire

/ blight of prohibitive tariffs, the in
ternational monetary chaos, and
disturbing effects of reparations and
war debts.
On the authority Of former Pre-
mier Stanley Baldwin of Great Bril-
tain, Premier Richard Bennett of
Canada, and other British leaders
here, it now may be stated that the
imperial conference has a signih-
canoe far vaSter even than the
British empire.
Economic Order Changing
In addition to that stated IN the
opening paragraph of this dispatch,
the following points may be sad
to have been set up to guide the
conference during the weeks TO
come.
First, that the world is moving
inexorably toward a new economic
order of things.
Second, the new plan of economic
cooperation between the members
of the British commonwealth of ma
tons merely is in keeping with that
trend.
Third, international trade is so
hampered by barriers of all kinds
that the trend is toward groupments
of nations, not necessarily political
in character, but Offering to mem
bers economic advantage in the
mutual opening of markets.
PrOhibitive Tariff Means Doom
Fourth, as trade is the life-blood
of nations. prohibitive tariffs spell
doom. Not even the British empire.
with one-fourth of the human race,
proftably can shut itself off from
contact with the rest of the world.
Fifth, whatever trade agreements
the several dominions may enter
into here the way must be left open
to mutually profitable trade with
other nations or groups of nations.
1t is the expressed hope of Bald
win and others that ottawa will
blaze the trail for a world con-
ference.
Baldwin, therefore, will battle here
for lower preferential tariffs as he
tween the dominions, rather than
higher, and what, in effect, would be
prohibitive duties against outside
products.

clans had grown up in America
during the years of his "Impossi-
bilities" were gathering dust.
TIE summoned to his Remsen
L Il street home DR.. Shirley M.
Quimby, the Columbia professor in
physics, and John Mulholland,
young professor. He said to them,
in effect, that he was getting
older Che was now So and that the
time had come to pass his knowl-
edge of magic on to other hands.
He pledged them they would
reveal to no one else what he re-
vealed to them until the time
came when they were old, too, and
must pass the knowledge on. At
such time they must exact
similar pledge.
So the tin theater came to life
again, in June, 1929, during the
New York national convention Of
the Society of American Magicians.
John Mulholland took the stage in
place of DR.. Hooker. Profess

DAYTON, o., July 22.-She is

dog and answers to the name of
Myra v. Stolzenvoss.
Descendant of a long line of
show winners, she had been
groomed as a show dog by her
owner, Louis Brennan, but never

well, however, as the playmate for
Brennan's 3-year-old son Gene.
And today she was the toast Of
the town. AS she lay in dog
hospital, receiving every attention,
townsfolk showered her with
choice bits calculated to cheer
the heart of a dog, and even with
flowers. She had done more for
her owner than all the blue rib
bons in dog shows ever could have
done.

courage late Thursday, she Of
