Cruelty to Animals.


7 ATELY a dog was tried before
IL a judge for biting boy. And
another Judge was appealed to, that
he save an elephant condemned to
die. So some one proves that,
through many centuries, animals
were accused of high crimes-dogs,
rats, pigs, oxen, ROSTERS, storks,
also ants, spiders, snakes, grass
hoppers, dolphins, locusts, gadf1ies,
cells, and, being convicted, were
burned, flayed, hanged, destroyed
by slow torture.
But think of the charges on which
the so-called brutes might condemn
mankind-offenses of which they
rarely or never have been guilty
malice; slaughter of weaker things
for love of slaughter; deliberate
wastefulness of natural resources;
wanton destruction of natural beau
ties; wars without rational cause;
unnecessary greed; bearing false
witness; neglect of our own young;

intolerance. ~ -'~ s-'a' - @

Newspapers VS.. Spellbinders.

IN MY reportorial youth nearly
every newspaper, big or little,
was bitterly partisan. We distorted
facts and editorialized in news Stor-
les when dealing with the accused
opposition. Otherwise we'd have
been traitors to a sacred cause.
These times the average paper.
big or little, prints honest accounts
concerning both sides-their rela-
tive chances as revealed by polls,
their waning or gaining hopes. The
political views of a columnist or a
special contributor may differ from
the publishers policy-still he gives
them space.
But the spellbinders 60 right on
spouting fiction which everybody
knows is fiction. And the volun-
teer debaters clamor with prejudice
and misinformation for their am
munition.
By the way, will all those who
ever heard of anybody being con-
verted by one of these barber-shop
arguments kindly raise their right
hands?
Currency Juggling.
u ENG frightfully smart to begin
- with, know as much regarding
currency juggling as the next fellow
which is precisely nothing at all.
Up to, say, $18.75, most of us know
what money is-or used to be. But
when they talk in terms of billions
or trillions or jillions, they've got
us going down for the third time
with low gurgling cry.
And the more a financial techni-
clan, with both his pants pockets
full of figures, tries to explain these
governmental manipulations, the
more convinced l am that, like the
average specialist, he has concen-y
trated on being expertly ignorant
upon one involved subject rather
than remaining, as most of us do,
broadly and comprehensively ignor-
ant upon practically all subjects.

Concerning Mr.. Earl Browder.
IT AVING been discouraged by a
perhaps overzealous police
force from speaking in Indiana,
Earl Browder, one of the almost
countless candidates for President,
now threatens suits for false arrest.
AS AL Smith says, let's look at
the facts. Mr.. Browder stands for
communism-stand for all commu-
nism stands for. Therefore he must
look on the Russian government as
the one ideal government, it being
the very flower and perfection Of
applied communism.
Now, in Russia any man publicly
advocating doing away with the ex-
listing national system and substitute
ing some other system therefor
would find himself in jail-or even
in a worse fix-before he could say
Jackovitz Robertsonoffski.
So what say is that Mr.. Browder
shouldn't crave to sue anybody. If
he believes in the practice of what
he breaches, which, of course, he
does, he ought to 60 around kissing
everybody on both cheeks.

Cruickshank says again: 1.-THE

evidence to show that a change from
putrefactive to Preventative types OF
fora has led, per Sc, without the
influence Of other concomitant fac

in arthritis or any other diseases"

place in medicine, but they should be

QUESTIONS FROM READERS
A. p: "Please tell me whether it
is unsafe for a girl Of IS years to

Answer: This depends on how we'll
trained the people with tuberculosis
are. If they have been trained in
hygenic habits, to respect the rights
Of others, and take proper precau-
tions, they are Of little danger to a
person Of the age Of IS. These pre-
cautions consist in cXpectoration in
a sputum cup or paper napkin. which
can be burned; holding a handker-
chief or piece Of gauZe before the
mouth while coughing; the use Of in
dviduaI drinking cups etc. The tele-
phone receiver should certainly be
wiped off with a damp cloth before
being used by others. 1t is gener-
ally thought today that tuberculosis
cannot be contracted by person il
years Of age. In fact, that it is con-
tracted in most cases in early in
fancy and only develops into the
adult form in later life. believe,
however, that it would be wise for
anybody to see that the precautions
mentioned above are taken, because
whether or not the theory of infec-
ton in Infancy Is always true has
not been fully established.

think that it is valuable in toXemia,
the following comment by we'll
known physician Of Philadelphia is
pertinent:
For many years the question of
intestinal putrefaction' has occupied
a large place in the lay mind. . .
Cruickshank makes the pertinent OBJ
servation that the intestinal contents
should be considered in one sense of
the word, as outside the body. The
mucous membrane protects the body
under normal circumstances, and an
intact mucosa presents an almost i'm
passable barrier to the products of
bacterial growth"
May Help in Arthritis
On the other hand, in cases Of
arthritis, it is sometimes found that
even after days or weeks of irriga-
tons have been instituted, that there
may be seen a sudden evacuation Of
evil material which has evidently
been held in some loop Of the bowel.

Men and equipment will be fur
nished the District by the United
States Public Health Service to make
tests of air conditions in buses now in
service in Washington, it was an
nounced today.
Use Of the men and equipment is the
result Of a request from DR.. George
C. Ruhland, health officer, who had
been asked to make the tests for the
Public Utilities Commission. Because
the District did not own proper equip
ment, William A. Roberts, peoples
counsel, suggested the Federal agency
be called upon.
DR.. James G. Cumming, chief Of the
division of communicable diseases in
the Health Department, headed q
group Of District officials who called
at the Public Health laboratories today
to have the equipment explained.
The tests will be made to determine
the airs content Of carbon monoxide,
carbon dioxide, disease germs and
proper air circulation inside the busses.
The Utilities Commission plans to
issue an order standardizing the ven
tilation Of all buses, but it will be
held in abeyance pending completion
Of the current tests and reports from

NEW TRIAL SOUGHT.
BY COL. M'MU[[EN
Errors in Conduct of Case
Are Charged as Motion
Is Filed.

Motions for a new trial and arrest
of judgment were filed today by Col.
Joseph I. McMullen. former chief Of
the patents section in the Office of the
judge advocate general, who was con-
victed last week by District Supreme
Court jury of accepting $500 from a
firm lobbying against a tax bill pend
ing in Congress.
Charging that numerous errors were
made by Justice Daniel w. O'Don-
oghue in conduct of the trial, the de-
fendant also argued that his indict-
ment and evidence introduced against
him were barred by the statute Of
limitations.
In the motion for arrest of judg-
ment, his attorneys, William E. Leahy
and William j. Hughes, jr.. pointed
out that the legislation in question was
passed June 6, 1892. while the date
on which Col. McMullen is alleged to
have accepted the fee was not until
July 6, 1888 They argued further
that the indictment was returned more
than three years after the bill was
passed and hence was barred by the
limitations statute.
Other points made were that the
verdict was contrary to the evidence
and that the trial judge erred in hold
ing that McMullen received the COM
pensation in the District, in refusing
to direct a verdict for the defendant
and in his instructions to the jury.
Col. McMullen was convicted Of re-
ceiving a fee from the Cuban-Amer-
ican Manganese Corp. for opposing
suggested excise tax on Cuban man.
ganese ore. The tax was to be in
cluded in the 1892 revenue bill.
The statute under which the officer
was tried makes it criminal offense
for an officer of the Government to
accept payment for services before
any branch of the Federal establish
ment in respect to matters in which
the Government is interested.

GUFFEY PREPARES
SHIP SUBSIDY BILL
To Introduce Substitute Measure.
Will Outline Plan on
Air Tonight. .

Ey the Associated Press.
Senator Guffey, Democrat, of Penn
sylvania prepared today to introduce
a new ship subsidy measure in an
announced attempt to break dead
lock on proposals to aid the merchant
marine.
Guffey said his new bill, q sub
stitute for an earlier one he intro
duced, eliminated a number of con-
troversial points.
Both the original Guffey measure
and one by Chairman Copeland of
the Commerce Committee would grant
direct subsidies in place of ocean mail
contracts.
The Copeland bill limits construc-
ton subsidies to so per cent of the
cost. The Guffey measure would
provide a 331a per cent maximum.
Neither limits the operating subsidy.
The Copeland measure also would
cancel ocean mail contracts within
year Of enactment of new legisla-
tion, while the Guffey measure would
set the date at March 81, 1887.
Controversial sections of pending
measures have brought threats Of
filibuster.
Tonight Senator Guffey will dis
cuss his proposal in the National
Radio Forum, arranged by The Star.
and broadcast over a Nation wide
network of the National Broadcastins
Co. His address will be heard here
