But want you to go round the

Well, we may as well start out

I've ordered breakfast when we

II was impossible, of course, to
travel over more than a small
portion of the plantation, but the
primitive huts OF the workers
appalled, Sandra. She decided she
would have TO do something

was odd, but her zeal for reform

Doctor Punished
For Working Cure

NEW YORK, Aug. 81 (UP)-A
strange case in which a physician
according to the appellate division
of the state supreme court-cured
cancer with a salve given to him
by another patient, went before the
court of appeals today
The cure became matter Of
court determination because the
board of regents suspended the
physicians license for year in
August, 1910, on the ground he had
treated disease with a secret for
mula in violation of the education
law.
The appellate division ruled, how
ever, that it had failed to find that
DR.. Emanuel l.. Stammer had been
guilty of fraud or deceit" as
charged and that, in fact:
This doctor effected a cure when
the so-called orthodox methods OF
treatment hid failed and now he
has been punished for it :"

Elliott Roosevelt
Says U.S.. to Fight

We'll Defend Ships
Says Presidents
Son in London

LONDON, Aug. 21 (UP)-
The United States will enter
the war if attacked, Captain
Elliott Roosevelt, son of
President Roosevelt, said to-
day.
Answering a correspondent who
asked when he thought the United
States would go to war, young
Roosevelt said:
TO a certain extent our entry
into the war might be caused py
some other power For instance,
we might have one of our ship
fired on
I'VE will surely be in the war if
we are attacked We are going to
defend our ships and men against
attack, either from the air or from
ships"
He was reminded that Japan has
attacked the U. S. gunboats Panay
and Tuitlia.
They said that was a mistake.
he said.
Roosevelt said that since he ar
rived two days ago he had found
in Britain a general feeling that
U. S. production had eased since
Russia entered the war
He said complacency existed in
both the United States and Brit
ain but not to such an extent in
Britain as in the United States.

world order would be an invitation
to Nazism to extend control over
the American hemisphere itself.
In special message which had
been requested by his legislative
leaders, Mr.. Roosevelt declared that
any peace which did not incorpor-
ate the eight points agreed upon
by him and the prime minister
would be a gift to Nazism to take
breath-armed breath-for a second
war to extend the control over Eur
ope and Asia to the American hem
isphere itself"
The president said the eight-point
declaration is so clear cut that it
is difficult to oppose it in any major
particular without automatically ad-
mitting a willingness to accept COM
promise with Nazism."
In effect, the special message also
added two new po;nts to the eight
objectives for a postwar world or
der-freedom OF religion and free
dom Of information. Neither of these
points was mentioned in the orig
inal declaration.
ut is unnecessary for me to point
out that the declaration of princi-

need for freedom of religion and

lied under the announced princi-
pies could survive without these
freedoms which are a part of the
whole freedom for which we strive"

able for what it did not include as
for what it actually embodied. The
