Hastings Thinks
BY HASTINGS BAKER

Seasickness is misery. Some
people never get their sea legs.
The great British naval comman-
der, Lord Nelson, spent lifetime
on sailing ships and still got sea-
sick in rough weather. Honey
mooners are often warned not to
take a cruise because if there is
one thing sadder than sea-sick
bride, it's sea-sick bridegroom.
Science always seemed help
less to combat sea-sickness. Moth
ing worked except to remain on
dry land. But now they appar-
emily have the perfect remedy.
It all happened purely by ac-
cident. A woman who always got
sea-sick on street cars noticed
that when she took medicine for
her case of hives, she didn't get
sea-sick on the streetcar. She told
her doctors and they started tests
which looked so promising that
the Army tested whole ship
load of soldiers. One half the sol
diers were issued sugar pills. The
other half were issued the sea-
sick pills. The results were dra-
matte. One fourth of those with
the false pills were sick. None of
those with the real pills were
sick. Then they gave the real pills
to 418 of the men who were al
ready sick, and 407 of them felt
fine in a few hours. There were
no bad effects. In the words of
one of the research doctors, it is
amazingly successful"
The pill has a chemical name
which is enough to make sailor
sea-sick - beta-diaminothyl ben
hydryl ether acknowledgements
nate. The trade name is Drama
mine. It is now in commercial
production and will be available
this month.
The American crocodile, while
more vicious than the alligator,
exhibits no hostility to man. It
was first discovered in the United
States in 1876, but was known
before that in Mexico. the West
Indies and as far south as Ecua-
dor.

By the Assoeiofed Press

LONDON, Aug. 8.-Home Sec
rotary James Chuter EIDE ruled
today that John George Haigh,
confessed vampire killer of nine
persons, must hang Wednesday as
scheduled.
Mr.. EIDE made the decision after
hearing from panel OF experts
on mental diseases, who examined
the 40-year-old murderer at Lon
don's Wandsworth Prison.
High was convicted July 10 of
the murder of Mrs. Olivia Durand-
Deacon. 69-year-old widow who
lived at the same hotel.
A confession introduced at the
trial said Haigh. drank glass OF
her blood and dissolved her body
in a vat of sulphuric acid. II
said he had done the same with
eight other persons in a murder
orgy which began in 1915.
His lawyers made an unsuc.
cessful plea of insanity.
The verdict was not appealed
Mr.. EIDE was Haigh's last hope Of
escaping the moose.
If mental experts had advised
that Haigh was insane, Mr.. EIDE
could have recommended that

should never in any measure be
curtailed."
