EXAN|NAT|ONO Of
PETR|F|ED BOY
DEN|EDMED|C

Wu.KES-BARRE, Pa, April
1NS0.-A noted New York or
thopedic physician who sought to
diagnose the strange malady
which is causing the body of seven.
year-old Benjamin Hendricks to
turn into bone was denied permis.
sion today to examine the boy.
DR.. H. Alexander Smith, head of
the orthopedic ward at the Wilkes.
Barre General Hospital, where
little Benny is fighting for life
against great odds, said he would
not permit the examination.
Although the boys plight has
baff1ed outstanding physicians
from all sections of Pennsylvania,
DR.. Smith said he would permit
an examination by medical men
only under the usual circum-
stances.
DR.. George B. Dorff, New York
physician sent here by a New York
newspaper to try his skill in the
case, would not say what he would
do in the face of DR.. Smiths re-
lection Of his offer to assist.
Meanwhile, Benny displayed de-
light over the avalanche of Easter
gifts Showered upon him.
For the first time in months he
displayed an interest in life. Be-
cause of the attention his case has
caused, DR.. Smith threatened to
clamp down rigid instructions
against visitors to the institution.

The United States is the only nation today that
permits sugar refined in the tropics to enter in
competition with its home refiners. All other
countries protect their refining industries and
safeguard their home market from duplication of
refneries even in their own colonies. It is uni
versal policy.
The United States provides the worlds greatest
market for sugar For 200 years it has developed
the manufacturing industry of refining sugar to meet
the needs of an expanding country, serving it in
every emergency.
No country surpass the United States in mod
ernness efficiency and sanitary cleanliness of its
sugar refneries
Since N. r. A., the refining costs of United States
refners have increased greatly N. r. A. does not
apply to Cuban re6ners, who also escape certain
processing taxes and also benefit from tropical labor
and also enjoy subsidy in addtionl
A very small group of tropical raw sugar pro-
ducers now demand United States quotas for their
refined sugar to make permanent the unfair position
they have secured recently in the United States
ket-thus permanently displacing American work
ers and the refneries in which of thousands Of
Americans have invested.
We cannot believe it fair to America for Con.
gress to permit this. 1t is certainly in the .MnA
public interest to keep this great industry W.

THE food of refined sugar being dumped into the
United States today from the Philippines, Puerto
Rico, Cuba, tells its own story of a commercial
invasion throwing Americans out of work in ever
widening circles.
In 1888 alone, this increasing food of refined cane
sugar prevented the refners of the United States
from supplying the needs of 100000 Americans.
This has already resulted in loss to Americans of
market within their own country equivalent to the
annual consumption of sugar in the following 81
states: Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode
Island Delaware, West Virginia, South Carolina,
Mississippi, Florida, Arkansas, New Mexico,
Arizona, Utah, Idaho, Nevada Wyoming, North
Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, Colorado, Oregon.
What this represents in loss of employment to
American workers may be judged by the fact that
10 u. S. re6neries between 1922 and 1881 spent
1921 in salaries and wages They pay out for
materials and supplies including coal, oil and power,
approximately billion dollars in a normal ten
year PERIOD furnishing business for many industries
and employment for many thousands of our people.
This condition is the result of Government
policy that inadvertently encourages the construc-
ton and operation of refnerieS in the Philippines
Puerto Rico and Cuba which are tropical producers
of sugar The policy assumed that these tropical
islands would not duplicate United States refneries
The assumption has proved to be wrong.
