heard Of Mr.. Parker. In AZ years Of
work on this problem he has handled
800 cases, for most part cases of
violence. He has caught-and seen
convicted-all but II Of his criminals.
He therefore has a record something
better than that of Scotland Yard
and, says the publisher Of this volume,
is placed in the position Of being one
Of the best detectives in the world.
Twelve Of his cases are told in the
present work, told in the first person,
as Mr.. Parker related them to the
author. It would be hard to find
any mystery thriller that beats them
in interest, or any fiction detective
who showed more ingenuity in picking
up clues than does the plain little
county officer. The book is heartily
recommended.

Mr.. Peattie, rejecting on what might

turn, says sadly: Against the English

that is the country into which We did

too-distant metaled highway, the pride
of the country, the repeated battle

roads of New France were the heron

lakes"
The heron haunted rivers. the silent
shining lakeS-it is beautiful phrase
ology, the more poignant because it
is so irrevocably of the past. Today
the herons. where they exist at all,
are in refugees word. And
the shining lakes in all too many
cases have been drained to puddles,
or have become preserves for sports

The spirit of these paragraphs over

writing. It is well above the average
book of that sort. For, while it has
a strictly formula plot, predictable
from the first page to the last, and
while it has no literary distinction, it
has a certain lveliness about it which
carries one along. Its obviousneSs
somehow does not become obvious.
Perhaps its virtues can be best
summed up by saying that its author
understands the telling of a story.
When a writer has that capacity, the
fact that his story Is third-rate Is
not particularly detrimental.
Mr. Cronin's story in itself is the
stereotyped struggle of the idealist
against the materialist, the capitalist
against the worker. For both groups
he has equally stereotyped protag-
onists. There is Barras. the mine
owner, who is the type Of cold-hearted
villain that Hollywood adores. There
is the young David, who burns for
Justice; when the story is cast he
will probably be played by Sidney
Howard. And there is Jenny, the
selfish wife. She is a Bette Davis role
all ready to the last detail. And so on.
In addition to the story of these
characters - good arrayed against
bad-there is very lively lot of scene
shifting. We have disasters in the
mines, mobs in the streets and other
diverting spectacleS. We have much
realistic detail about miners lives and
the actual work in the mines. These
passages seem to have been written
from first-hand knowledge, and their
authenticity no doubt has been the
reason for the great outcry Of ap-
proval of the book. For If writer

FRANCE owes many Of its hu-
il name institutions to the leader
ship of one of its greatest finan-
ciers Jules Paul Benjamin Deles-
Sert.
To this man goes the distinction
of having founded the first savings
bank in France and while in the
Chamber of Deputies of having adj
vocated many humane projects,
such as suppression of the death
penalty and improvement of
Frances penal system.
Delessert, who lived from 1773 to
1847 in turn owed his success to his
father, Etienne, founder of the first
insurance company and the first dis
count bank in France,
The younger Delessert also estab-
lished many learned and philan-
thropic societies, founded the first
cotton factory at Passy in 1901, be-
came regent of the Bank of France
in 1902, and founded a sugar fac
tory in the same year, for which
he was knighted as baron of the

Relief, Taxes the Issues
Many persons say Davey is a big
issue in Ohio. But for top issue 1
put my money on relief and taxes.
Business has improved tremendous
ly since 1888 At hotel listening
posts the report is freer spending
for luXurieS.
Ohio farmers are making consid-
erably more money than in recent
years-on the word of John c. Haaf
who travels throughout the state
for the Grange-and they're fairly
content-likely, in fact, to vote for
Roosevelt next year. But relief
hurts in town and country.
Of every 500 of Federal funds
spent for relief since the New Deals
FERA, was inaugurated, approx
mately Sc has been spent in Ohio.
Relief headquarters reported the
state never had contributed more
than 10 per cent a month and often
put up less. Last january there
were 1,267,957 relief clients. That
awesome number had shrunk by
early autumn to about 100000.
Some reduction is attributed to the
PWA program but relief officials
said it was due largely to improved
industrial conditions" Even so, the
cost still is more than $5,000000 a
month.
On Dec l a load will shift to Ohio
and Davey does not appear to be
ready. The Federal government will
continue about 225,000 on works re-
lief pay rolls. 1t is estimated that
the unemployable relief cases shifted
to the state after the end of the New
Deal dole will cost $25,000,000 for
the year 1886 How to raise the
money is problem for Ohioans in
politics and out.

Contemplate Further Trials
Further trials of this vaccine are
contemplated by Drs. Park and Bro
die. Although some scientists hold
that dead virus vaccine can not pro-
duce immunity or resistance to in
fantile paralysis, Drs. Park and Bro
die reported they had found anti
bodies" substances they believe in
dicative of immunity, in the blood
of children vaccinated by their
method.
Another kind of vaccine, made OF
living virus weakened by chemical
and other treatment, has been given
to over 10000 children, DR.. John A.
Kolmer, Research Institute of Gu
taneous Medicine, Philadelphia, re-
ported. Ten of these children sub
sequently contracted the disease,
five Of them dying of it. DR., Kol-
mer believes this was because they
were already infected before they
received the vaccine. and that it
was given too late to prevent the
onset of the disease. None of these
10 children received the full doses
which he considers necessary for full
protection,
Other scientists, skeptical of the
safety of injecting living virus, see
in these 10 cases confirmation of
their doubts and consider DR.. Kol-
mer'S vaccine unsafe.
Hope that satisfactory vaccines
will eventually be developed for pro-
lection against virus diseases, such
as infantile paralysis, was expressed
by DR.. Thomas H. Rivers, Rookie
Teller Institute for Medical Research,
New York. Dr. Rivers pointed out
the many difficulties in the way of
developing such vaccines, difficulties
due to the different behavior Of vi
ruseS and to insufficient understand
ing Of them at present.
There has been no use of vaccine

Morgan, city health board secretary.

From discussions of its use hearc!
at public health association and
medicinal groups meetings and
from what I have read in medical
literature, it appears the treatment
has not yet emerged from the re-
search, experimental stage. DR.. Nor

He pointed out that indianapolis
has been strikingly free of infantile

bound and about a third of the way
across the continent, met joseph
R. Jones who told me the New Deal
was slipping among the middle and
wealthy classes of Ohio, but was
strong among working men and.
women. Jones is a local American
Federation of Labor official and
member of the Columbus City Coun-
Gil.
Fred Lazarus, who runs a big de-
partment store on Highest, said he
thought President Roosevelt could
carry the state next year but that
unemployment was bad and admin
iStration of relief worse.
Gov, Martin L. Davey, a Demo-
crat upon whom the New Deal
thumb seems to be down, reported
that cooperation would keep Ohio
safe for the national ticket.
You slog up and down Highest,
in and out Of the hotels and through
some of the back thoroughfaras try
ing to discover whether this part of
the country likes the New Deal for
which it voted in 1882 or prefers a
change You hear a lot of interest
ing reports, but the net result is
inconclusive.
States on the Fence
Ohio is on the fence. Half the
persons from whom you borrow a
match and ask questions will tell
you Mr.. Roosevelt will lose Ohio in
1886. The other half thinks not.
Some labOring men to whom I
talked said they had voted for Mr.
Hoover in 1892 but would vote in
1886 for Mr.. Roosevelt or for Sen
ator William E. Borah if he ran.
There is scant interest here in an
Eastern Republican nominee for
President There is activity and
various support for Frank Knox of
Chicago, Gov AT Landon of Kan
sas and Senator William E. Borah
Mr.. Borah would slice deeply into
Mr.. Roosevelt's labor vote. There
is talk that he may permit his name
to go before the May II nominating
primary in Ohio.
Step into the Governors office
you see medium height, Sticky gray
haired, youngiSh tree surgeon who
is having his political troubles. The
newspapers are riding him. The
Legislature is balky.
He made a lot of people angry,
too, when he said publicly what
every one interested already knew
that score or more of Ohio State
Universitys football players were on
the state pay roll as legislative pages
and such.
He's a Smart Campaigner
Roosevelt leaders in Ohio evident
ly are planning to sidetrack Gov.
Davey. That means a dirty intra-
party row if Davey puts up the fight
think he will I promised not to
quote the Governor and he talked
frankly.
The rug on which you scuff your
feet in Davey's office is proof that
he is a smart campaigner with a
sense of crowd psychology. 1t is a
new rug When Davey took over
the Office the rug was worn and
shabby. He asked the Legislature
for $1,000 for new rugs. Newspapers
howled and Legislators baked.
They might have made a sucker
of Davey on that issue if he had
decided to get along with the old
rug. But he ordered out motor
cycle escort, folded his rug ano

Ell Hclcrce Scrl-icc

I'm Science Scrrice
ST. LOUIS, Nav. Scientific
opinion on the value and safety OF
Vaccines for infantile paralysis IS
sharply divided, it appears from dis
cussions at the meeting here of the
American Public Health Association,
Southern branch.
Is it safe to inject some OF the &C
tive, living virus Of the disease into
a child's body, even if the virus has
been weakened so that a larger dose
Of it does not produce paralysis in
monkeys? Does it do any good to
inject doses Of dead virus?
Parents and physicians ell over
the country are anxious to know the
answers to these questions. SO far,
scientists have not agreed and from
the discussions here it appears that
the question can not be settled with
out much more extensive researches.
Disappointing results we're OBJ
tanned with the trial of the dead
virus vaccine in last summers cpl
