Hare We Reached the Point
Where We Can Be Us Kind
to Human Sufferer as the
Mayor Was to the st.
Charles Snake?
NEW YORK, Sept. Like
IN many other folks, I was in
terested in that snake-spider bat
tie which ragged at st. Charles. ILL.,,
for twenty-five days, and which
might have lasted week or two
longer had not the mayor inter
fered.
AS 1 understand it, his honor was
not disposed to interfere, but took
scissors in hand and performed his
duty when convinced that there was
no other way of preventing a grand
commotion and, possibly, law suit.
The publicity given this combat
seems to have made it an issue with
the cruelty to dumb animals
crowd, and they proceeded to in
form the mayor of st. Charles that
its continuance would be in viola
ton of the law.
What an unfortunate thing it is
fer garter snakes that the law re-
ferred to does not cover the big out
doors? Or, to state the proposition
another way, is it not lucky for
spiders?

SCIENCE
D epression Has Squared
Chemical Research, in the
Belief of Editor.
BY DAVID DIETZ-

CHEMICAL research has escaped
~ the depression, according to
Prof. E. J. Crane of Ohio State uni
versity, editor of Chemical Ab-
stracts. one of the official publica-
tons Of the American Chemical So
ciety.
In fact, chemical research is on
the increase throughout the world
and Professor Crane thinks that the
depression is the reason for it.
Recently the National Research
Council showed that American in
dustry was spending wisely a great
er proportion of its income on re-
search than it did in the era of
prosperity.
Professor Crane now shows that
other countries are doing the same.
Professor Crane is in a position
to know what the world is doing
in the day of research in chemistry.
For chemistry Abstracts is really
sort of international information
agency in the field of chemistry.
1t undertakes to publish brief
summaries or abstracts" of every
article on chemistry published in
the semitic journals of the world.
A staff of forty-five assistants,
working under direction of Profess
sor Crane, superyises the activities
of more than five hundred chemists
who read and abstract a total OF
some 1000 journals published in
English, French, German, Italian,
Russian, japanese. etc.

Why Not Garry Through?

why mol OdIfy llOugll {
DUT human souls, with their I'M
ID intelligent refinement and con-
fused ideas of cruelty, could not
stand the thought of that poor little
snake being done to death by the
strands of silk around it's head.
1t seemed to them unbearably
brutal when translated in the light
of human understanding, and I'M
necessary when considered in the
light of man-made law. So they
threatened to take legal steps if the
mayor failed to perform his duty,
and the mayor, with great common
sense, yielded to their wishes.
The snake goes free, after having
been revived with milk, and the
spider sees a long and successful
effort wasted, without knowing why.
You can't quarrel with such
solution of the problem. 1t beSpeaks
tenderness of heart which the
caveman never knew and which we
like to imagine as representing
progress. But why not carry it to
logical conclusion?

HapDenS Every Minute

TT was just little ten-inch garter
i snake that should have stayed
with it's mother and that most peo-
pie would beat to death with stick,
or a stone, without giving the mat
ter a second thought.
It was just little black spider OF
the masculine gender, but belonging
to a species which the female rules
with unquestioned finality. The
poor little chap was foredoomed to
be slain and eaten by his sweet
heart at. some future date if he
survived the vagaries of his struggle
for existence.
1t was just life and death strug-
gle between two very inferior ami
mails, such as takes place every
minute in the day somewhere, and
such as has taken place every min
ute in the day ever since life began
on earth.
1t IVES in strict accordance with
natural law, and the fate 1t held
in store for the vanquished snake
was no different and no harder than
the little snake probably was pre-
destined to meet.

Eight teams played 30 games each last night in St Francis Xavier parish hall in the opening round of the "45" tournament. The feature of the evening was the hard fought contest between the teams of Captain John Fitzmaurice and Captain Thomas Byrnes. These teams are the acknowledged peers. if not the superiors, of any "45 players in the city, and when 1t was announced that the Fitz- maurice team had won 19 games, the sadness in the Byrnes camp was plainly noticeable, somebody remarking that Byrnes and his men reminded him of Mudville the day Casey struck out. But Byrnes and his men are game and hope to do better next time.
 The high scores were announced for the Fitzmaurice team and the John Bowey and John Dalton teams were tied for second place. In all future contests the teams will play AZ games each. Thomas Byrnes is chairman of the com mittee of arrangements and made a good start last night.
 The tournament will be continued every Monday evening for several weeks.
 The teams and their captains are as follows: Thomas Byrnes captain; 1;

LOSE FAT
 This Right Way

Modern science has found that excess fat islargely due to scanty gland secretion. Too much food which should supply fuel and energy goes to piled-up fat.
 Since this discovery, doctors the world over are feeding this lacking factor. The results are seen in every circle. Excess fat has been disappearing fast. Millions have gained slender figures, new youth and vigor, in this right way. They have done it without starvation, by combating the cause.
 s,,Marmola prescription tablets present this modern method in form convenient and cheap. They are prepared by a medi- cal laboratory, famous the world over. People have used them for A years millions of boxes of them. Now multi tndes of people show and tell the results. Some of your friends are among them.
 If your figure is abnormal, your vigor below par, do what these people have done. Take Marmola tablets-four day until conditions are corrected. Don't starve yourself. Don't use methods which are futile. Do the right thing now.
 AM druggists supply Marmola. A book in each box gives the formula and explains the amazing results. Go start now. You do yourself vast injustice by remaining oves-fat.

SALVADOR SAID TO HAVE LICKED
 UPRISINCS
Officials Lay It All to COm= munists and President Says It Is D0wn-Many Warships Are There

San Salvador, Jan 26-(UP)- "Communist" outbreaks in which there were reports of heavy cas- ualties and many buildings bombed were described to-day in official announcements as "completeiy suppressed" except for a few rebel bands closely pursued by troops.
 The situation. however. still was considered serious with martial law in effect in of IA provinces and warships of the United States. Canada and Great Britain either anchored off the coast or steamlns here. The warships will remove foreigners If necessary.
 President Maximiliano Martinez issued a manifesto calling upon the country's 1,500,000 inhabitants tu support the government in the crisis.
 Actual fighting in the uprising appeared to have been brief, but heavy casualties were believed 1n- volved. No official statement re- garding casualties had been made to-day.
 According to private advices received in New York, thousand or more persons were killed in heavy fighting over the week end and public buildings were bombed).
 The government attributed the uprising to communists and other dissatisfied clements who took ad- vantage of the economic situation revolution. The attempt appar- and resulting unrest to attempt a entity was encouraged by the fact that the United States and the four governments of Central America refused to recognize the Martinez

 Mrs Charles K. Sabin will speak on various phases of the 18th amendment.
 Ex-Senator Wadsworth will speak on prohibition with special emphasis on its connection with government.
 Mrs Lucius Robinson Jr, state chairman of the Women's organ ization for National Prohibition Reform said, Prohibition is logic ally a woman's cause because of its effect on social conditions which directly threaten youth and the home.'
 Mrs Robinson said. We are un- dertaking to organize women, by the belief that there are hundreds of women throughout the state who, through various activities. are aware of the breakdown in our whole social fabric and who wish to voice their ,disapproval.
 "That the 18th amendment must be repealed as first step toward stemming the tide of lawlessness and crime, is the growing convic- tion of the people of this country. Under prohibition we have lost

Reports Read Showing Work of the Organize {.
 ton During 193l
FINANCIAL SITUATION

Reports submitted at the board meeting last night showed the Y M. c. A. with the biggest program of activities in its history. The attendance at the three Y. M. C. A. branches is much greater than ever before because of the large number of young men and older boys out of work. The Y. M. c. A. considers the group of 3,000 young men and older boys out of work as it's particular responsibil- ity.
 The receipts, however, from the regular activities have fallen off $71,379 or 44c6. The Y. M. c. A. has been able to cut its expendi- lures $64,389 or 33%. The Y. M. e. A. with greatly increased pro- gram of service, is turning out more production, but it is not being paid for the goods it is producing.
 Central Y. M. c. A. has always been nearer self-supporting than other Y. M. C. As in the district. So, even in the midst of this de- pression, Central Y. M. c. A. is showing today. surplus of &C., PAP. The Brooklyn and North End branches, however, show com- bined deficit over the former level of. $14,072. The saving in ex- 5penditurgss of s$64,389' is almost en- tirely at the Central Y. M. c. A , The month of December re- ports showed while the Central Y. M. c. A.. peeded only 139o in subscriptions, Brooklyn branch needed 73% and North branch 77&.r The average amount needed in subscriptions in normal times for a Central Y. M. c. A. is 28% The Waterbury Central is there fore 15b nearer self-supportine for the month of December than is the average Y. M.' c. A. of the United States when times are good.
 The program might best be described by the word Crowds. The reports show that crowds day and night throng the Centra building and the branches. There are 6,216 members, and the over 5000 young men and older boys out of work. The Y. M. c. A. is running seven forums per week on economic, health, world peace disarmament, and Christian char acter topics. There are five nov. ing picture shows weekly, eigh dances per week and, variety o1 other social affairs. In addition tt the regular educational work. there are seven free educational classes for unemployed young men. Al three gymnasiums and other phy sical equipment are used to tho limit.
 The Christian education repor1 showed 96 clubs of boys and young men. Seventy of these are boy: and 26 young mems. These 9f clubs are all self-governing, frat ernal clubs with a four-fold pro gram, and with the Christian edu cation emphasis. The Waterbury Y. M. c. A. is outstanding in this department of its work. In addi' tion to ethese, so called Christian education clubs, the Y. M. c. A has large numbers of athletic ant social and aquatic clubs or groups

 Early yesterday morning Pat rolman Frank Magro encountered the accused on Jefferson street. He was crouched under the window of a house and plainly under the in- fiuence of drink. There was no one in the building at the time Fusco was discovered. What aroused the officers suspicion was the fact that Fusco's pockets bulged with hidden objects. When searched the young man was relieved of q hammer, a brace and a bit.

 "The Women's Organiza ton for National Prohibition Reform feels that liquor traffic can be brought under control by permitting the people to decide what form of coll trol and regulation they desire and it becomes evident that only by returning to each state the right to control the liquor traffic within its own borders, can laws be framed which will meet the wishes of the people"

They were repulsed after fighting which resulted in the death of at least four persons, off cial reports said, including the mayor and municipal secretary of Colon, department of La Libertad.
