NEW YORK, Dec. 11.-Dr. Theo- bald Smith, aged 75 years, Presi- dent of the Rockefeller Institute of Medical Research, who opened the way to the conquest of typhoid fever, cholera, malaria and yellow fever, died late yesterday as the result of an attack of the heart. He had just been admitted to a hospital to undergo treatment for malignant growth of the intes- tines.
 Wars on Diseases
 pr. Smith, working in the qulet of his pathological laboratories at Princeton University, stamped out the scourge which decimated cat tie on the western plains-and in so doing made discoveries which vastly advanced the war against the diseases of man.
 His experiments during the 'Tex- as fever" plague which visited the herds in 1893, enabled him to prove the principle, since widely adapted to the treatment of human disease, of insect-born transmission of in- lection.
 His earlier work in the inocula- ton of pigeons against hog choi- era, rationalized the subject of vaccination and led directly to the invention of diphtheria antitoxin.
 It was he who, in 1884, proposed the then revolutionary idea of cre- ating immunity against disease with products of the bacteria which produced the disease.
 Given Many HOnors
 Many honors came to him at the house overlooking Carnegie Lake in Princeton, known as Theo- bald Smith House where for Is years he led his staff of Rocke- feller Institute scientists from one important discovery to another He was given the Mary Kingsley. Ko- Der, Flattery and German medals and in 1883 was awarded the Cop ley medal, presented by the Royal Society, Great Britain's oldest sci- entific organization. He was a mem Der of nearly all the important ,ci- entific societies of the world and held honorary degrees from many universities.
 Cornell Graduate
 Dr. Smith was born July 31, 1859, at Albany, N Y. He was graduated from Cornell University in 1881 with the degree of Ph. B., and in

 After Geneva Action

GENEVA, Dec. 11.--War threats in Central Europe were dissipated last night when Yugoslavia and Hungary bowed to the League of Nations whose Council unanimously adopted a resolution "deploring" the crimes at Marseille.
 The action of the two opposing nations in accepting the resolu- ton is viewed as a great victory for the League of Nations in the interest of peace.
 Central Europe has been threat ened by war as the direct result of the assassination on October 9 of Yugoslavia's King Alexander, and incidentally of the killing of French Foreign Minister Barthou.

The law of 1891 was the first

But the postmaster general in

that the government entered into
