of being nailed to the Lindbergh
crime, but of being sent to jail for
the comparatively minor crime of
boarding gold certificates.
Bruno Calm on Stand
When Hauptmann finished his
direct examination, there was con-
siderable praise for his steady nerve
under fire. There were persons who
watched his hands, in the crowded
courtroom. They saw that those
hands, which the state claims fash
Toned the kidnap ladder, never once
quivered.
They compared Hauptmann's
hands to those of an honest lumber
man, one j. j. Doran of South Caro-
lima, which shook with a pitiful
palsy when he was testifying against
Hauptmann. All Mr.. Doran had to
testify about was the matter of a
simple bill of sale and the ship
ment of some lumber.
What Hauptmann has to testify
to is the evidence that will save him
from the electric chair or send
him to it. Yet Mr.. Doran's hands
trembled and .iauptmann'S hands
were those of supremely confident
auditor, going over another mans
books.
The defense has taken Haupt-
mann over every one of the more
than 200 exhibits produced by the
state of New Jersey, and asked him
in each case whether he was ever
aSSC ciated with it.
Reilly Uses All Tricks
AS though he had been drilled in
a class room, the German has an
swered with a loud NO" to each
question. And he is steady enough
to turn to the jury at the most eff
fective point, and shout his denial
point-blank into their upturned
faces.
Mr.. Wilentz has more than the
little red book" with the word
"boad" in it, with which to confront
the witness. He has saved some of
his most pertinent evidence, await
ing the time until Hauptmann has
completed his explanation of the
strange circumstances by which he
fell into possession of part of the
Lindbergh ransom money.
His chief counsel, Edward j
Reilly, popularity known as the
Bull of Brooklyn" has done every
thing possible to save Hauptmann
from the pounding he is going to get

HEALTH OF
TOURISTS CAMPS
IMPORTANT
u

In. 1915 fewer than three million
tourists visited the national parks of
the United States. This year the
number will be anywhere from Is to
20 million, because America in the
summer season is a nation on wheels.
AS people travel about, many find
it much more convenient and much
cheaper to live in tourist camps than
in city hotels or rooming houses. For
this reason, it is well to bear in mind
that certain factors of safety are nee
essary, if you wish to be sure, that a
tourist camp is healthful.
The most important item is water.
All licensed camps, that is, those
which have been inspected by state
health departments, are suitably GER
titled, and it is likely that these will
have a plentiful supply of pure water.
If the tourist camp is not licensed, it
is safer to boil the water.
In many places water is obtained
from springs or shallow wells. Such
water is liable to be contaminated by
the ground flow following rains.
Next, of course, is the question OF
proper disposal of sewage. Before
hating for the night, the tourist will
do we'll to find what provisions have
been made, for this purpose.
Flies and mosquitoes are easily
controlled by mosquito netting and
screening. Those who use the tourist
camp will aid in keeping down the
number Of flies and mosquitoes by
placing all garbage and trash in con-
tainers and by disposing of waste
paper in some manner so that it will
not form pools on the ground.
Food that is prepared in the camp
should be served under clean con-
ditions, and proper places for disposal
of garbage should always be avail
able.
Most important also is the question
of bedding. The tourist has a right
to know that clean sheets and clean
towels have been provided for each
guest.
Emphatically, travellers should not
sleep in rooms in which cooking is
done.
Not infrequently a motorist becomes
ill while en- route and requires the
attention of physician. Sometimes
the person in charge Of the tourist
camp is able to advise him suitably,
but in many cases the physician he
suggests is chosen because Of friend
ship rather than because Of his special
competence.
The safest procedure is to get in
touch with the medical society in the
nearest large community and ask the
officers of the society to recommend
suitable doctor.

Pocomoke City. Md.
Sir:
Cutting of cotton, corn, tobacco and
peanut acreage in the South has re-
leased this land for the production Of
truck crops, bringing them into COM
petition with those produced further
north, causing ruinous prices all along
the line. The production and distri-
button Of the Nations food supply is
a vastly complex machine, which must
not be tempered with, unless done so
by mechanics who know what they
are doing, and who will make proper
allowance for all adjustments, thus
timing up the whole.
Turning screw here and there only
throws the agricultural machine out
of balance, as evidenced by the ruin
Gus prices received by farmers for
snap beans, potatoes, tomatoes, etc.
Seventy five. per cent of the snap
beans produced in Somerset county
were plowed under. Another truck
crop was hurriedly planted, which will
compete with that of Delaware, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, etc., thus bring
ing ruin upon all. This scene is re-
enacted many times from Florida to
New England.
Remedy: Allot each section season
to market each product. If a farmer
knows he will be unable to market a
crop he will not plant it. A North
Carolina farmer does not profit by
shipping late crops at loss, but he
does glut the market, thereby bank
rupting the Eastern Shore farmer.
Further adjustments could be made
to compensate for abnormal seasons.
I would suggest that a survey be made
at once and that immediate action be
made in accordance with it's findings.

ITALY MAY GAIN
RICH OIL FIELDS
IN EAST AFRICA

Italy, which in the event of Ethiop-
ian conquest may gain control OF re-
putedly rich oil resources in Halle
Selassie's empire, supplies less than
3 per cent of it's own gasoline re-
quirements.
Although a pioneer in motor car
production, Italy has Jagged behind
in domestic distribution of automo-
biles, due to the high price of cars,
high annual taxes on vehicles and
above all, the excessive price Of gaso-
line. For several years the country
has sought less expensive motor
fuel.
Italian chemists and other scien-
lists are reported to have agreed that
alcohol is the best domestic product
available in large quantities for ad-
mixture in blended motor fuels and
that the sugar beet, which thrives
in Italy, is an excellent raw material
for it's production.
The beet and sugar corporation has
submitted a plan to the government
to increase the production of alcohol
suitabale for use in motors to &c.
100000 gallons within four years.
Producers and importers of motor fuel
would be compelled to use sufficient
alcohol mixed with production. It is
estimated that the plan will result in
a so per cent increase in present sugar
beet acreage.
Italian investigators say the con-
tention that use Of alcohol damages
cylinders and valves was refuted dur
ing the World War when the Italian
army obtained excellent service from
cars using a mixture Of gasoline, al
cohol and ether.
The novel suggestion that American
trucks equipped with Diesel engines
and employing soya bean oil for fuel
could be successfully marketed in the
Far East has been advanced to the
American trade commissioner at Sing
apore. The sponsor of the plan rep
resents German Diesel engine COM
pany located in the Orient.
