RECOMMEND SALT
 AS HEAT ANTIDOTE
Department of Health Gives Advice on COmbat=
 ting Heat Sickness

The effects of heat cramps - sometimes called heat sickness-in industry can be largely prevented among laborers engaged in hot work by replacement of the salt lost from the body through precipitation, &C., cording to the July bulletin of the State Department of Health. This can be done conveniently by adding two teaspoonfuls of salt to each ten quarts of drinking water, or by sup plying salt tablets so that such workers may take one or two when drinking from fountain.
 Workers most liable to develop heat sickness are those doing man. ual labor in the hot summer sun or working in the heat of foundries, boiler rooms. bakeries. laundries. metal heat- treating and other in- dustries where the heat produced by various operations adds appreclably to the summer heat. These indus tries have given serious considera- ton to the prevention of heat cramps and to the minor effects res sulting from working in hot atmo- spheres. Casting shops. foundries. forge plants and other hot indus tries report that the use of salt has practically eliminated eases Of heat sickness. according to the bulletin.
 Plant employees not engaged in hot work were cautioned against taking salt tablets too frequently CT with insufficient water. Tlle infudl- elous use og salt aometlmae caslsell aasiro intestinal disturbances among ssdenlasy weFkafs.

CIVIL LIBERTIES. GROUP PROTESTS
National Defense Program Will Interfere With All
 Citizens of Nation

New York, July 15-(UP)-The American Civil Liberties Union pre- dicted today that the liberties not only of miriorities but.of all citizens vii be irnperiled by the national defense program and the adoption of conscription.
 The union, in it's annual survey of the status of civil liberties in the nation, said:
 "No such critical situation has confronted Democratic liberties in the United States since the World War as that which has developed with the Nazi success abroad and the fear of American involvement" ;"
 The survey, entitled "I11 the Shadow of War" said the propagan- da against fifth columnists" had resulted in a wave of intolerance against aliens, German American bundists, Communists and the re- ligious sect, Jehovah's Witnesses.
 It sai dthe action of, "stlf- -styled patriotic organizations" continued with diminishing effect last year, with the American Legion the most active agency of interference with civil rights"
 "While there is no formal connec- ton between the legion and native Fascist organizations of the char acter of the bund, the Silver Shirts and the Klan, a community of in- terest brings them together in at- tacks on radicals and militant la- bor," the survey asserted.

Judge Cornell Remits the Fines for Manslaughter
 Case Principals

Joseph Gatling, of SO Abbott ave nue and Garfield Bostic, 2l, both coolred, of the same street, will be released from the New Haven county jail on next Friday upon the com pletion of a jail sentence for man. slughter. The youths pleaded guilty to the charge on last Seternber 19, when arraigned before Judge John A. Cornell in the local superior court. Judge Cornell Saturday remit ted fines amounting to $l52.02 in the cases.
 The manslaughter charge arose out of the death of white man on Bishop street on July IA, 1889. The affair took place late at night and was surrounded by seevral mysteri- ous circumstances.
 Gatling had costs amounting to $76. 20 and Bostic costs of $75.82. h. asmuch as they did not have the money to pay each would have had to have had to worked his fine out at the rate of a dollar day hao not Judge Cornell remitted the fines. ?

Youths Resist Arrest in Morris; Hubert Monroe
 Has Jaw Fractured

Morris July 15-Constable Hubert R.

BELGIAN EMBASSY
 EXPLAINS DEFEAT
Result of Being Attacked By Superior Forces and
 Units Better Equipped

Washington, July 15--(UP)-The Belgian embassy issued a sketch of operations of the Belgian army" to- day in which 1t said its defeat was a result of being attacked by su- perior forces and better equipped units.
 "There is no need to try and find sensational explanations such as betrayals and treason, which are not supported by facts" the embassy said.
 Like the French ana the British armies, the Belgian army was de- feated because 1t was attacked by superior forces and better equipped units and because the enemy made use of tactical schemes which none of the Allied armies were ready to meet"
 The statement described move ments of the Belgias narmy from the day the German blitzkrieg be- gan. May 10, until King Leopold, l8 days later, ordered his men to cease firing.
