Unborn Babies
Able to Stand
Some Nicotine
BY HOWARD w. BLAKESLEE

ATLANTIC CITY, June IL
pa report that unborn ba-
bles develop a tolerance for nico-
tine was given to the American
Medical Association today.
Tolerance is the ability 10
stand a certain amount without
bad effects, in fact with virtual
~ no effects. What this amount
may be is not we'll fixed. 1t is
likely to differ from person to
person, and is developed by
smoking.
Warning that this tolerance
factor must be taken into ac-
count before the effect of tobac-
co on humans and animals can
be judged properly was made by
n, Harris Perlman, M. D., Phil
adelphia.
He studied the nicotine toler-
ance in newborn babies, through
SIS mothers who smoked ciga-
rettes. Some took one TO four
day, other five to ten; the rest
eleven to twenty, and sometimes
more.
They smoked each cigarette
down to the last inch or closer
and were instructed to inhale
and also to blow out the smoke
through their nostrils TO insure
absorbing more nicotine.
The nursed their babies. Nico-
tine was founo in the milk of
every mother. The babies got it,
but in not one instance was there
a sign of bad effects on the baby.
The explanation, DR.. Harris
said, is tolerance. The nicotine
getting into mothers milk was
in all cases less than the poison
Gus threshold Exac ly how
much nicotine the newborn can
stand, DR.. Harris said, is not
known.
But, he said, the infants prob
ably developed their tolerance
before birth. They absorbed the
nicotine from their mothers
blood.

WASHINGTON, June 11-(PO
The House approached show
down today on the question of
wartime continuance Of the long
embattled WPA which, at its
peak in 1889 had 100000 Of the
nations iobless on its rolls at
cost of S2,230,000,000.
Rep. Taber (R-NY), ranking
minority member of the House
Appropriations Committee, serv-
ed notice that he would move TO
knock out a S280,000,000 allot-
ment designed to provide WPA
employment for an average Of
100000 persons monthly during
the fiscal year beginning July l.
In the opening skirmish on the
floor yesterday, WPA critics de-
nounced the organization as inef-
ficient, unnecessary and waste
full, with Taber declaring that
the request for funds came at a
time when any man or woman
willing TO work can find en-
ployment."
He contended that approval of
the appropriation would serve
but on purpose X X X so that
the misfits who have made a
mess Of the WPA over the years
may continue on the public pay
roll"
Rep. Cannon (D-Mo), commit
tee chairman, argued, however
that the greater part of the
money would be devoted to pro-
jects lin connection with the
war program"
He said there were many sec
tons of the country where the
problem Of unemployment had
not been eliminated by war in
dustry.
From Rep. Rich (R-Pa) came
the contention that the allotment
contained funds for recreation,
sewing, and vocational pro-
grams. Goodness gracious" he
exclaimed, let them get out and
earn an honest dollar"

In today's hand, spades are
opened and declsrer holds up
the ace until the third round,
discarding a diamond from dunn

king of clubs, which East takes
with the ace. East leads a dia-

Now South leads low heart.
West must jump up with the

will run four hearts, which
ought to- be enough 10 give him

BY playing the queen, West
forces dummy to play an honor,
or West will run his spades.
That kills the heart suit if South
had only two hearts originally.
If South had three hearts, the
contract probably cannot be de-
featcd.

In the course of some 40 NOV

and has done-in lots of worthy

full of dark deeds. He played
everything on the stage and was
a comedy detective in 1.-THE
Dark Tower" when Producer
Hunt Stromberg saw and sum-
moned him to Hollywood to be-
come the ruthless killer in the
first Thin Man" picture.
Porter Hall came by his re-
ligious convictions through his
own thinking and counter to his
boyhood environment. Through
a couple of dramatic circum-
stances both his grandfather and
father had become embittered
against ministers and churches,
and he went through college
and business in Cincinna / with
no liking for preachers or for
malized worship. 1t was his wife,
he says, who led him around to
religious thinking.
