There followed . quick series Of
questions and answers during which
Cameron apparently was talking about

while the crowd In the courtroom
snickered.
It was clarified when, by question,
Cameron developed that It might have
been . call on police business, made
on MartinesonS own initiative and
that Martineeon was under no obli-
cation to tell other members Of the
force when he made q call Just what
he was going to do and whether Il

KANSAS CITY, April 28.-Voicing
determination to carry on the fight
against machine rule" despite the
defeat Of the fusion ticket in Kansas
Citys bloody municipal election, the
national youth movement, spearhead
of the fusion organization, has named
a committee Of Is to keep watch
over the City Council and city depart
ments.
Young men and young women. all
workers in the recent campaign, make
up the committee, which began its
announced four-year vigil by attending
the first regular Council meeting fol-
lowing the election. The fusion group
succeeded in electing two Of eight
councilmen.
Members Of the committee will at
tend a weekly class, said Joseph
Fennelly. IN. Y. M" president, at
which they will be schooled in what
to look for in their continuous check
up and where to look for 1t.
Each committee member will have
a personal assignment, Fennelly said.
and every bit of public business will
be scrutinized. Should anything de-
velop which watchers believe irregu-
lar full publicity will be given in
statements from IN. Y. M" head
quarters, he asserted.
Veteran political observers ex-
pressed the opinion the committee
might be hampered by the practice
of the six Democratic councilmen and
the mayor meeting in caucus before
each open Council session to agree
upon business to be transacted. It
was conceded, however, that activi-
ties of the group, together with the
presence of opposition members on the
Council for the first time in eight
years, might easily result in addi-
tional publicity on the conduct Of
municipal affairs.
Charges of graft, favoritism and in
efficiency, leveled at the incumbent
Democratic administration during the
campaign, led to unprecedented activ-
ity in both camps and brought out q
record breaking vote.

GOLDSBORO, N. c., April 28.-
State chemists will seek to solve the
mystery Of mottled enamel found on
the teeth Of 1,484 school children in
the Golsdboro district during q public
health survey.
Doctors believe It is caused by
huorine in the water and have ordered
samples from the water supply Of
each school in Wayne County sent to
the government laboratory in Raleigh
for analysis.
Dentists aiding In the health survey
were curious and then concerned as
child after child was examined with
the same findings.
Their teeth were coated heavily.
They appeared to suffer no immediate
i'll effects, aside from appearance.
But the dentists feared the coating
would cause their teeth to decay
quickly and eventually bring Ill
health.

to Rule in Interim.

been nominated for the mayoralty
last Fall, Tammany would not have
lost the city's key political position
to the Fusionists, headed by Forello
La Guardia.
Ahearn Prominent.
One man generally held fairly Ger
tain to be a member Of any steering
committee that may be formed is
Edward j. Ahearn. He led the re-
volt against Curry and five years ago
was a candidate against him for the
leadership Of the hall. Ahearn is also
regarded as q candidate to succeed
Curry.
The latest step in the several-year-
old battle within the Democratic
ranks here finds Tammany without
power either locally or nationally
almost, many hold, political
skeleton because of the lack Of
patronage.
Tammany began as a benevolent
society over $50 years ago, but it
was soon turned into a political ma
chine. With the exception Of short
intervals Of reform administrations"
it has had municipal affairs in abso-
lutte control ever since, waxing fat
at the we'll filled troughs of city jobs
and patronage.
The leader Of Tammany gets no
salary. His, supposedly, is merely
the honor Of heading a private So
ciety. Curry is in the insurance
business.
The duties Of Tammany leader,
while extensive, are easy to explain.
He keeps the leaders Of the several
districts In line, and in return sees
that each gets his fair share Of
patronage.
Frustration on this patronage duty
was the ultimate blow that sent Curry
into exile. Having guessed wrong on
national, State and city candidates,
Curry found himself In the position
Of Old Mother Hubbard. He had no
bones to throw out to his followers.

CHICAGO SPEEDS
CLUES|NMURDERS
Scientists Cut Time for
Human Blood Tests to
| Hour,

CHICAGO, April ga modified
process has been evolved to speed up
and simplify the criminologist's task
Of detecting human bloodstains.
Instead Of taking several days to
identify bloodstains, which may prove
a valuable clue in the solution Of q
crime, DR.. William H. Welker of the
University Of Illinois and DR.. Ledvig
Hektoen Of the John Mccormick In
stitute for Infectious Diseases can do
1t now In an hour.
Heretofore, the method Of deter
mining bloodstain has required up
ward of two weeks, and the process
has had to be repeated for each test.
Aluminium Is Key.
The difficulty always has been in
preserving the anti-serum that must
be extracted from an animal, but
DR.. Welker and DR.. Hektoen claim
to have surmounted it by using
aluminium cream in the introduction
of the proteins into the animal.
AS a result, they say samples of
the anti-serum obtained in that man
ner have maintained maximum deli
cacy for at least two years, the period
Of their experiments.
Using the anti-serum as a base,
they place a quantity of it In a test
tube with layer of the extract from
the bloodstain over it. If sort of
white ring forms where the two
liquids contact, it Is evident, they
say, the stain contains human blood.
Higher Efficiency.
The necessity Of obtaining the anti
serum each time test was to be
made In the past was made tedious
by waits Of three or four days between
each of series of injections, and a
final delay Of ten days after the
final injection.
In the matter Of testing for blood
stains under this process, the doctors
say it Is possible to detect as little as
one part in one million, and oc-
casionally one part in ten million.
