IODINE BLOCKS
SCHOOL TEST

A few dabs of iodine prevented
test case of the Districts vac
cination. laws today in District
Supreme Court.
Justice Jesse C. Atkins dis
missed a petition for a writ of
mandamus filed by H. H. Entz
against Superintendent Of Schools
Frank w. Ballou. Entz's children,
Barbara, 8, and David, 6, have
been barred from the Thompson
School by school officials on the
ground they had not been vacci-
mated.
Testimony revealed that Entz
took his children to a private
physician for vaccination last Sep
tember. A few moments after the
incubation, Entz applied iodine
to the wound.
Physicians testified the iodine
destroyed all effects of the vac
cination, and Justice, Atkins held
that, on a question Of fact, the
children had never been vac
cinated.
The facts in the case prevented
a weighing of the vaccination law
which was disputed between the
District and Entz in papers filed
in the case.
Entz's attorney, Daniel S. Ring,
informed the court that had the
iodine not been applied. he was
confident it could be shown that
one vaccination, whether success
full or not, be sufficient to COM
ply with the law.

RUSH FOR BEER
PERM LAGS;
1928 ISSUED
These Are Temporary Licenses
and Board Will Now Begin
Weeding-out Process

With the rush for beer permits
definitely over, the Beverage Per.
NIT Board today prepared to
settle down to work preparing
permanent licenses for establish
ments which are now selling beer
under temporary permits.
While it was uncertain just
when the first permanent license
would be granted, it is expected
that issuance of these formal
documents will begin within a few
days.
To date 1923 permits have been
issued here, while 201 have been
denied. The board is holding %
applications for further investiga-
tion. A total of $115,000 had been
collected up to last night in
license fees, according to the Col.
lector of Taxes.
Outside BrewerieS Eyed
Some of the. dealers who have
been selling beer under temporary
permits may be denied licenses,
it was pointed out, as the issuance
of the licenses is contingent upon
investigation Of the applicants.
The temporary permits were
granted in all cases where there
was no reason apparent on the
face of the application indicat-
ing that the applicant was unfit
to sell beer.
District authorities were still
uncertain as to action in the
case of breweries shipping beer
into Washington without a Ger.

At hearings by the subcom-

Pleas for Larger Sum
Senator Thomas made his pro-

Kansas City

Chicago, Aug. 22.-(P)-A govern
ment prosecutor disclosed Tuesday he
had evidence that Louis Stacci, sub
urban resort owner. had promised the
wife of Frank Nash, slain bank rob-
Der, he would rescue Nash from fed
eral officers when they reached Kan

Tertiary.
The attempted delivery resulted in

MINNEAPOLIS MARKET
Is QUIET AND EASY

grain market was quiet and easy for
quite period Tuesday and found re-
siStence good on minor declines be-
cause Of mill buying of wheat and
rye futures. Wheat closed q to lc
higher.
After early orders were attended
to, the market slowed to the point of
dullness but finally came to life when
rye futures began to bulge. Rye ran
up AZ and wheat sympathized to a
minor degree. Barley also had a
sharp run up and with prices strong
the general grain list strengthened
but eventually oats and flax dropped
out of line and lost ground.
Sept. wheat closed "a higher and
Dec. 1c higher. Sept. rye closed az
higher and Dec. 2& higher. Sept
and Dec. barley closed rs higher
Sept. oats closed unchanged and Dec
% higher, Sept. flax closed y lower
as did Dec.
Undertone OF the cash wheat mar
ket was firm and demand was fair
to good. Winter wheat was in slight
ly better demand. Durum Of choice
amber quality was wanted for mixing
and was very strong.
Cash corn offerings were too light
to make market. Oats demand was
quiet to fair. Rye was in stronger de-
mand. Barley was up l to again
and mailing demand was very good
Feed grades moved readily. Flax de-
mand was very good and buyers COM

RYE IN SPOTLIGHT
ASPRICE ADVANCES
FIVE CENTS BUSHEL
All Other Grains Carried Higher
in Sympathy At Close Of
Quiet Day

Chicago, Aug. 22-(P-Rye earned
the spotlight in the grain markets
Tuesday with an advance of five cents
bushel, the maximum permitted in
one day.
All other grains were carried little
higher In sympathy after spending
most OF the day in the doldrums.
Erratic fluctuations, such as char
acterized Mondays trading, were alb
sent and traders said the markets
were beginning to reflect the laws of
supply and demand. Crop comments
were generally unfavorable and trad
ing was small.
Wheat closed firmer and q to IL
cent higher than Mondays finish,
Sept. 88S-h; Dec. 81a4-7s; May
95&-A.
Corn was easy, q to Is lower, Sept.
52&; Dec. 5l-57b; May 62ss.
Oats IN higher, rye AZ to AZ up,
and provisions steady to is cents
advanced.
The market fiddled around most of
the morning in an aimless manner,
apparently waiting a new incentive
or restoration of confidence in out
side buyers. Wheat was easily in
fluenced by light transactions. The
trading range was exceptionally mar
row. averaging less than cent a
bushel.
Corn was quiet, despite the fact that
the crop is in critical situation.
Many unofficial crop experts said that
rains now would be too late to bene-
tit corn with the frost hazard daily
looming larger.
Oats were fluctuating in a range
OF only n cent bushel. Provisions
were quiet and little easier with
grains.
