POLICE HANDLING
OF WATCH PR0BED
Inquiry Seeks to Fix Blame for
Sending Seized Timepiece
to Wrong Person.

Police Supt. Ernest w. Brown today
began an investigation in the depart
ment's property room to determine
whether carelessness was responsible
for a watch, seized by the police, be-
ing turned over to the wrong person.
The inquiry resulted from a COM
plant by a Washington jeWeler that
a new wrist watch, which had been
in possession of a salesman, and seized
in a gambling raid. had been returned
to him showing evidence of having
been used.
Maj Brown said preliminary in
ouiry showed three watches had been
turned into the department at the
same time. One of them apparently
had been placed in the wrong enve-
lope and turned over to a lawyer who
claimed the property of man who
died from a heart attack. Two of the
watches were of the same make, he
said, and since no record is kept of
the case numbers, a mistake may have
occurred in asserting and classifying
the property.

business under the name of Penn
Bros, named as defendants Seldom
r. Glenn, United States collector OF

ford, United States district attorney
for the Eastern Kentucky district.
The petition alleged violations OF
the Constitution for the following
reasons:
The act was not enacted to raise
revenue, but was enacted to control
acreage and the quantity OF tobacco
raised
1t constitutes an effort by Congress
to regulate beyond its power under the
Constitution.
In violation of the fifth amendment,
it deprives citizens of property with
out due process OF law.
1t is an arbitrary penalty and Is
unreasonable
Because of certain exemptions allowed

ton, which provides uniform duties

NEW YORK, July 25. = For a
club scheduled to crack wide open
a month ago, the Detroit Tigers are
holding up very well. They lead the
American loop by two games.
Baseball dopesters, who go into a
huddle with a ream of paper and
come out with pennant winner,
figured out before the start of the
current invasion of the west by east
ern clubs. that Detroit couldn't last
the month out. Detroit couldn't
stand the pace, they said.
Yankee spokesmen announced
Washington was the club they fear
ed. 1t appears they forgot to show
these calculations to Mr.. Mickey
Cochrane, foreman of the Tigers.
Anyway, Detroit managed to win
nine games while losing four since
the forecast was made, while Wash
ington has lost 10 and won only
one. The Yankees have only broken
even, winning seven and losing Sc
ven on their western raid.

New York suffered a double loss
in st. Louis, losing both the ball
game and the services of Left Field

Combs raced back for Harlan

went for a triple, scoring the win

the field with fractured skull, a

BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN =

THE old mans legs are weak and he spares them.
Il His heart gradually loses its force and he is
likely TO spare this organ by resting and by
playing nine holes OF golf when he used to play
eighteen.
Even his mental powers are diminished and he is
likely to do One-half much mental work as he
did previously.
Unfortunately. or perhaps fortunately according
70 how YOU view the matter the dentist provides him
with good sound teeth in place of the weakened
teeth that used 10 be the lot Of aged persons There
fore, he is likely TO avoid sparing his stomach and
TO overload 1t with vast amounts of food.
II there is any one piece Of important advice that
should be given the aged to lengthen their lives it
IS that their diets should be sparse.
INVESTIGATORS have long since established the
Il fact that a tendency to overweight is not only
burden to the aged. but dangerous to their
lives
While the dentists have provided the aged with
good strong teeth physicians have not been able to
put new Innings into their stOmachs.
Il is therefore we'll to bear in mind that the food
Of the aged should be soft and easy to chew. This
means that excessive amounts Of roughage must be
avoided
In fact. there are two periods in life when soft
hOod-So that the minced and stewed vegetables
which are made. especially for children may
also be considered particularly satisfactory for the
diet OF the aged.
IT is serious matter if food taken by the aged is
i allowed to overburden the stomach. The amount
Of food should be small but it may be taken rather
frequently so that hunger Will not occur.
This also gives the stomach opportunity to take
care Of the food and 10 move it onward. 1t is es
specially important also that the food of the aged
be not such as 10 produce large amounts of gas.
An accumulation OF gas in the bowels or in the
stomach at night will cause pressure on other organs
particularly the heart. with some danger to life.
