 NEW YORK'S HOUSE OF DEAD.

There are 500 stone slabs in the morgue at Bellevue hospital, New York City, and most of these are occupied continuously with human bodies brought in from all parts of the city. They are mostly part vic- tins of murders, accidents, suicides, even starvation. It seems incredible there could be so many violent deaths in ore city. Sometimes addi- tionai resting places for corpses must be Inprovised as in the case of a disaster such as the recent hlorro Castle ,tradegy, whose victims were brought to Bellevue. "A con- tinuous stream of sorrowful, dejected hun1an beings pass along the aisles between rows of bodies trying o recognize relatives or friends. The sight of these hundreds of unburied aeae laid row upon row is 7an ex- perlence no one can ever forget. It $ convincing proof of the frailty of human life.

War Thru Ages.

World history tells us that during the last 4,321 years, war has beer. going on continuously on some part of the globe except for 270 years. During this period, 5000 peaca treaties have been written and sign l that lasted an average of two years each. During the same period, 25 combinations of nations of one kind or another have formed and contin- ued for a time, comparable to the present League of Nations. "Peace on earth" is still an unrealized dream.

AIRPORT OPPOSED
BYBENN|NC GROUP
Citizens Body FroWns on
Site as Dangerous and
Impractical.

The proposal to acquire the old Ben
ming race track for municipal airport
in the District of Columbia was vigor-
ously opposed by the Benning Citi-
zens' Association last night at the
Odd Fellows Hall, Minnesota avenue
and Benning road northeast
Frank James, introducing his mo-
ton of opposition, said that not only
would it be diSadvantagous to the
community but the existing condi-
tions there, such as heavy fog banks
arising from the river. the tall
smoke stacks of the Potomac Electric
Power Co.. the sandy soil and the
high tension wires recently placed on
the Pennsylvania railroad tracks,
made the site impractical. James also
said he felt that legaiized racing in
the District was not far off.
The association favored the reten-
ton of Capt. Sidney j. Marks in the
eleventh precinct. 1t was reported
to the association that Capt. Marks
has made a very good record in that
area since his rank as private on
the police force.
Copies of the resolution will be
sent to the superintendent of police
and the Police Commissioner.

Tests show Kellogg's ALL-BRAN
provides "bulk" to aid elimination.
ALL-BRAN is also rich in vitamin
B and iron.
The "bulk" in ALL-BRAN is
gentle. It resists digestion better
than the fiber in fruits and vege-
tables, so it is often more effective.
Isn't this food safe than risking
patent medicines? Two tablespoon
fuls of ALL-BRAN daily are usually
sufficient. If seriously constipated,
