porting the administration plan have
come forth with a denial of Professor
Sprague's charges, and say that the
plan being followed by the President
is the only one which can prevent the

Congress will force drastic initiation

PRECAUTIONS URGED FOR
THOSE HANDLING RABBITS
Hunters Are Warned To Bring
In Only Healthy Looking Ones

When you go cunning for rabbits, be
sure you bag only healthy specimens.
Avoid the animal that moves slowly
that seems stupid or dazed. That is
the kind that is likely to be infected
with tularemia.
Use rubber gloves when skinning
rabbits or when preparing the meat
for the market or the table; then cook
thoroughly.
Because of the danger of contract
ing tularemia-rabbit fever-from
infected rabbits, DR.. R. H. Riley, di-
rector of the State Department of
Health, advises hunters, market men,
food handlers and housewives-all
who have any occasion to handle wild
rabbits or other animals of that class
to take the foregoing precautions.
''Tularemia," he continued, "is the
medical name for a fever that has
been known to hunters and market
people for a long time, but that was
not definitely found to be due to handl-
ing diseased game until recently. 1t
is an infectious disease to which rab-
bits and other small animals are sus-
ceptible. 1t is spread from animal to
animal through the bite of infected
ticks and also through the bite of a
certain kind of fly. The disease at
tacks the liver and other parts of the
animal and its presence can be recog-
nized by tiny white, or yellowish spots
scattered through the organs.
''The disease is contracted by human
beings in handling or skinning in
fected game; through the bite of in
fected ticks, or even through crushing
infected ticks. The infectious mater
ial may be absorbed through scratch
or a mere break in the skin, or in
rubbing the face or hands while handl-
ing the animals. The disease usually
starts with a severe cold and other
symptoms that resemble grippe or in
fiuenza. In most cases an ulcer de-
veiops at the site of the infection. 1t
has also been mistaken for typhoid
fever, and it is often characterized
by typhoid-like fever of several
weeks duration. 1t is accompanied by
great prostration and long, slow con-
valescence.
1.-THE family physician should be
sent for at once, for any who develop
symptoms that suggest rabbit fever
The doctors diagnosis may be con-
firmed by blood tests which the State
laboratories will make at the request
of the attending physician or the
county health officer.
rabbit fever was made reportable
in Maryland in 1928. Since then 101
cases have been reported: 46 in Bal
timore City and SIS in the counties,
with Is deaths-6 in Baltimore City
and Z in the counties.
~Talaremia occurs principally in
wild rabbits. 1t has not been found
in domestic rabbits raised in rabbit
ries. Thorough cooking destroys the
germ. Thoroughly cooked rabbit meat
is harmless.

NATIONAL AFFAIRS
By FRANK P. LITSCHERT

The resignation OF Prof. o. M. w.
Sprague from the Treasury depart
ment at Washington recently with the
warning issued by him that the nation
is in danger of drifting into "unre-
strained initiation" and a complete
breakdown of the credit of the gov
eminent" if the present monetary
policy is persisted in, may be taken
as an indication that the battle be-
tween the inflationists and the anti
infiationists is now on in dead earnest.
1t may be finished in the coming ses-
sion of Congress which promises to be
one of the most interesting which the
country has had in generation. The
resignation of Professor Sprague
comes as no surprise, as it had been
generally known in Washington for
some time that he was out of
sympathy with the administrators
so-called gold policy. The most signi-
ficant features of the resignation was
that it proves the determination of
the anti-infationists to wage battle
to win public support, and to do it in
no uncertain terms.
Professor Sprague is an economist
of world wide reputation. He was
formerly an adviser to the Bank of
England, and resigned that post to
come back to America to assist in the
formulation of President Roosevelt's
financial policy. When he found HIM
self in disagreement with the policy
there was nothing left for him to do
but to resign. The resignation brings
into the llmelight the division which,
according to rumor, has been present
in the Treasury for some time, a
division which led some time ago to
the resignation of Dean Acheson as
Undersecretary of the Treasury, and
to place in that position Henry Nor
ganthau, who is virtually Secretary of
the Treasury during the enforced alb
sence of Secretary Wooden due to
illness.
One of the most surprising parts of
Professor Sprague's statement is the
one to the effect that since his return
from London following the world eco
nomic conference there, he has had no
opportunity to discuss policies with
the President. This is especially sur
prising in view of the fact that Pro-
fessor Sprague was supposedly
brought into the picture to be one of
the advisers of the President. This
leads to the belief that perhaps all of
the story has not yet "come out" 1t
will be remembered that during the
London conference Professor Sprague
was one of the American experts who
stood staunchly for some sort of in
ternational sterilization. The stabili
cation plan was vetoed by President
Roosevelt who did not believe that it
was at that time a good thing for
American recovery, as the recovery
program had been mapped out by the
administration. 1t is barely possible
that a rift developed at that time be-
tween Professor Sprague and the
other advisers of the President with
the result that the former was from
that time on, more or less out of the
picture.
The statement of Professor Sprague
to the effect that the country is con-
fronted with uncomfortable imitation
and all it's evils unless the monetary
policy of the administration is
changed, sounds the battle cry for the
ti-infationists and we will doubt
less hear more from them in the
future. Many of the economists sup

DY 4 o'clock nearly normal con-
~ ditions had been restored in
the vicinity Of the postoffice. The
injured who were unable to 90
home had been removed to hos
pitfalls, and most of the debris had
been cleared from the street.
Bob and Ava, returning from a
canvass of the institutions, found
Mr.. Breen In the corridor of the
building, little Dolly clutching his
hand. There was a relieved re-
union.
I'VE went out for a walk" Mr..
Breen explained, land after the ex-
plosion we couldn't get within a
mile Of here"
at isn't safe here even now" Bob
interjected. Il am not at all sure
that there will be no more explo-
sionS."
II must get Dolly awayI" ex-
claimed Ava.
Mr.. Breen and Bob signified
agreement.
IF there is no message for me-"
Bob said, Il am going with you. I
don't want you and the child to
run any unnecessary risk-and
don't forget, you have been seen in
my company lot today"
Why not get them a police es-
cort?" Mr.. Breen asked.
"THAT would be all right. Chief
n Morrissey is a very competent
policeman, and would do everything
he could. In this instance, however,
would feel better if I went my
self"
A few minutes later they we're
speeding up Meridian street, en-
route to Crows Nest Bob noticed
groups clustered on the sidewalks,
reading latest editions of the papers.
Dolly, tired by the afternoons
excitement, slept most of the way,
and Bob and Ava did little talk
ing. It was dark when they passed
near Broad Ripple on the way back.
Bob insisted on stopping for din
ner.
Lets go over to the Showboat,"
he suggested.
Aren't you needed DOWNTOWN"
Ava asked. II thought your new
work was so very important"
1T is. But I can't do anything
until they dig my Office out of the
wreckage. And I need time to do
some thinking"
After dinner Bob insisted on driv-
ing around Fall Creek boulevard to
view the winding creek and later
White river. 1t was a pleasure to
know that he and Lionel St. George
were in different states. and Ava
was with him.
You know, Ava" Bob said softly,
you probably saved my life today"
Ava looked at him steadily, her
dark eyes luminous. They sat mo-
tionlesS for a while. A curtain of
mist, cold. threatening, arose men
acingly from Fall Creek. Black
clouds moved across the moon,
obscured it from view.
Ava stiffened and drew away.
1t was as if an unseen Specter had
touched her shoulder.
