SMALLEST BABY
EVER BORN MAY
WIN LIFE FIGHT
0ne-Pound Boy, Perfectly
Formed, Is Less Than
ID Inches Long.
By United Press

/ bU tWfttN HFcsS
KANSAS CITY, Mo, April s.
perfectly formed, a one-pound ba-
by boy, believed to be the smallest
child ever born alive, carried for
ward a stout fight for life here to-
day.
Doctors gave the tiny boy-leSs
than fourteen inches long and his
doubled fists about as large as his
6-foot fathers thumbnail-an ex-
cellent chance to win.
The baby, the physicians said, is
only premature and undernour-
ished. He fully is developed.
Mr.. and Mrs. William st. John,
the parents, had not expected che
arrival for two and one-half months
more.
The father is 10, the mother II.
They have been married about a
year.
Monday night, soon after the
baby's birth, reporters found three
strapping uncleS and the grand
father, a large man, sitting in the
front room Of the couples home,
gazing wonderingly at the card
board box and its tiny occupant.
How much does he weigh?" the
grandfather was asked.
II don't know. Not much 1 guess"
lone pound, to be exact" said a
six-foot uncle, sheepishly.
IL. -. -
said grandfather.
Say, he's going to give them
battle, all right, said an uncle.
He'll probably live to lick any
OF us"

A H, this great old game of poll
IA tics When it isn't one thing,
it's another. And it's all bad.
AS a case in point, look at the sit
uation in the Democratic party re-
garding the county treasurer nomi-
nation.
The setup is for William Clauer,
one time city chairman, to beat the
incumbent, Timothy P. Sexton. The
city hall boys hope by that to obtain
the circuit judge nomination for
James E. Deery.
Now Sexton is supposed to have
sufficient pulling power among
members Of the Catholic faith to
give him winning chance.
To split this vote, the Clauer men
are said to have sponsored the en-
trance into the treasurer race OF
John E. Flaherty.
The last named filed a couple of
weeks ago and the Sexton adherents
finally got wise to what was in the
wind.
At three minutes to midnight
Saturday-the deadline for filing
and withdrawing Curtis Patton.
one of Sections deputies, came into
the clerks Office with a withdrawal
blank signed by Flaherty.
AS soon as this was handed in,

THEY TELL NE

Bob Cunningham, who plays close
to Clauer and Hendricks Ken
worthy, the Ninth ward chairman,
rushed out to the courthouse cor
ridor and told Tom Kenwortf1y.
From some mysterious place out
popped another entry blank signed
by Flaherty and he was fled again
before midnight stopped the show.
And, peculiarly, although Flah-
erty was not seen around, all the
signatures are said to be authentic.
Just as an outsider, the column
perhaps would suggest that the
Clauer forces we're just trif1e too
smart for Sexton and Flaherty and
when they got the latter to file, they
had him sign two entry blanks.
So they we're all set for emery
encies.

FATAL AND UNUSUAL MALADY |S THINNING
 DOG RANKS INTERIOR

MCKINLEY PARK, Mar. 21. (Spe- cial to The Gateway)- Some un- usual malady has affected the dog population of the Interior the past winter.
 The dogs seem to become para lyzed in their hind parts and hind legs. Some cases the attack comes on gradual; in others during one night they are hardly able to stand on their hind legs. Many appear to finger on for months, others fall dead.
 Travellers from the Yukon River report over 200 dogs there are af- flicted.
 So many pooches have been at tackled that any sort of pooch with hair on and more than three legs has price on his head.
 No remedy for the trouble is now known, nor has any one offered guess as to what the trouble may be.
 It is said the disease is similar to that which ragged in Nome some 25 years ago, and that several hun dred dogs either died or were killed because of it. No name or remedy was known for it there either.

will put it on basis of equality in
taxation and regulation with COM
peting forms of transportation. We
find the freight truck, passenger bus
and government subsidized water
ways in operation, in competition with
the railroads.
Is it fair competition? Who pays
for the building of roads and water
ways? Did the freight trucks, pas
senger buses, barge and steamship
lines build them? How much taxes do
they pay toward building and main
tanning them? What share do the
property owners pay? What share do
the railroad companies pay? Should
the railroads cease to operate, and
they must unless we throw our loyal
support to them, what will become of
many of the various industries?
Which will it affect most? What will
happen to the farmer; the merchant;

various others? Should they fail, ev-

"A Welcome Loss

A little over year ago a young
Philadelphia stock broker bet some
friends $4,000 that within IL months
he could dine with President Hoover,
play golf with John D. Rockefeller,
either golf or motor with the Prince
Of Wales and play golf with Bobby
Jones.
His year has expired, and according
to current newspaper dispatches he
succeeded in only the first of these
four jobs-and that only by dint of
scraping up an invitation to a ban
quet at which President Hoover was
a guest. Unless he has concealed his
triumph, then, he is out $4,000.
One hesitates to rejoice at another
mans loss, of course; but 1t is hard to
keep from being glad that the young
man lost out. The unmitigated gall
which would be necessary to induce a
man even to try to win that kind Of
. bet Is dismal thing to think about.

A New ''ObScenity" Bill

The New York legislature is consid-
ering a new "obscenity statute" which
looks as if it would make an excellent
law 1t would put the responsibility
for the sale of an obscene book on the
publisher instead of on the retailer,
as is the case now; and it would not
only free booksellers from the
harrassings of official and unofficial
shoppers, but would probably prove a
more effective weapon against i'm
proper publications than the present
law.
The bookseller has to take many
of his books on faith. There are TO-
900 or more printed annually; how
can he go through them all? In many
cases he decides to play safe when
ever any small group protests the sale
of a book-and thus makes possible
an unofficial but highly effective CEN
sorship
The new law would put it entirely
up to the publisher, and would COM
pei him to stand back of every book
he issued The arrangement would
be more logical and more effective.

However, of "a players injured

Obviously this is a very low per-
centage of danger as associated with
any sport; certainly far less than &C.
ours in football, In which among 49,
600 players there would quite surely
have been deaths and many serious
injuries.
BY comparison with football it is
interesting to realize that the greatest
danger comes from collision with 9TH
er players, which is the most prom
inent type of injury in football.
All sports carry with them an ele-
ment of hazard. Considering the good
that is to be derived from hockey, it
would seem to hold high place for
its contribution to muscular move
ment, grace and speed, without con-
tributing anything like so large an
element of danger as is involved in
other sports.
