SAYS ETHYL IS CAUSE OF DEATH Camden, X. J.. March 25— (VP) Ethyl alcohol, the “kick" in all liquor, rather than methyl (wood) i alcohol or other poisons, is the cause of alcoholic fatalities, ac cording to Dr. H. X. Harger, associate professor of biochcm stry and toxicology in the Indiana Univers ty school of medicine Its concentration in the body usually is responsible for deaths and post-prohibition liquor ordinarily s no more poisonous than Imported or pre-war liquor. Dr. Har ger asserted in an article "What Is the Poison in ‘Poison Liquor’?” in a recent issue of the Indiana State Medical Assocation Journal His allegations, attacking reports of fatal doses of fusal and acetal dehyde in liquor and denaturants n diverted industrical alcohol, par allel findings of contemporary toxicologists, he said. In the past veer, alcohol caused 4,700 deaths in the United States, almost one third of fatalities from ail poisons. Ethyl alcohol itself Is a poison if takfn in sufficient quantity. Pharmacologists for years have classified alcohol with chloroform and ether as a cause of death,’ Dr. Harger wrote. . “A fatal dose of ethyl alcohol ta c quantity only a little in excess of what is needed to make a pet son dead drunk.” F'usel oil, found in new liquor, is four times as toxic as ethyl alcohol, but never is in sufficient quart tity to act fatally before the sub ject has absorbed a lethal dose of ethyl alcohol, he said. Wood alcohol only rarely appears in bootleg liquor, according to Dr. Harger. Most chemicals used by the government in denaturing industrial alcohol are removed easily, but ordiginally are not present in sufficient quantity to cause death be tore ethyl alcohol kills the subject, he said. Deaths from alcohol have de creased since passage of the eight eenth amendment, he asserted, offering statistics to qualify the statement. oDerby Prizes Cut Loudon, — (UP) — The 100,000 tickets at one pound sterling each to be sold in the famous Stock Exchange Derby Sweepstake are expected to be only sufficient tor members of the Excange and their friends, and the amount available tor prizes will be less than 90,000 pounds compared with 125,000 distributed after the Derby last year.

ANNUAL CHERRY BLOSSOM FETE POSTPONED Next Year’s Celebration Expected to be Brilliant Affair By R. H. Stewart (United Press Staff Correspondent) Washington, March 25 IBP) The Jupanesge cherry trees along the banks of the Potomac here, which were presented to the United States by the city of Tokyo, will bloom this spring without the an nual <berry blossom festival being held about them. This year's fete was postponed until 1931, partly because the committee in charge of the event could not make final preparations in time and partly because of the serious illness of the late former president, William H. Taft. The trees were presented to this government by the mayor of Tokyo a* the time “f Taft's presidency, through the ITesident and Mrs. Taf . it had been planned to hold special honors for them during thi« spring's festival, but his serious illness prevented this program as it was originally planned. In announcing the postponement. Major Genera) Ant o n Stephan, -hairmun of the festival commit e..tated that those in charge will immediately begin laying the foundation for the 1931 fete, when it is Sloped to hold a larger and more •qiec u< ular celebration than ever before. Parades, tabeaux and other fealties of the extensive program for next year will be planned on a gigantic scale, the preliminary plans indicating that the festival will rival the famous Mardi Gras of Net. Orleans. It is an'lcipated here that Japan will be. unofficially represented at lie festival in some manner, in honjr of this particular thing which Tokyo and Washington have in common —their cherry blossoms. Some months ago when plans were being discussed for this year’s -xpe' ted fete it was suggested that a number of Japanese girls be brought here for the occasion. This resulted in an immediate flood of protests from American missionaries in Japan who claimed that 'Japanese geissha girls" should not be brought to this country. The uproar against the ‘geisha girls’ was so great that the plan was ■anceiled before it materialized . Later on, a Tokyo newspaper announced that four young women of represen ative Japanese families were sent to the United States tinier its supervision as envoys of gratitude tot the ass stance rendered ■fter the 1922 earthquake in Japan. .Vhen this announcement was made it was hoped here that the partv could arrive in time for the blossom -'estival, which lias sin- e been postponed. According to word received here, the young women selected to convey to lie American people the grail tude of the Japanese people for the earthquake relief are the Misses imiko A hiuo, Yoshiko Matsudair Yoshiko Sato and Sumiko Takuda. They were expected to visit San Francisco, 1-os Angeles. Seattle Portland, Chit ago, New York Washington. Philadelphia and Boston. — —o Lyndhurst Mayor Is Forced To Quit Post Indianapolis. March 25. — (U.R) — Residents of Lyndhurst, a small community on the western edge of ndianapol's, held a jubilee in the corridors of the Marlon county courthouse yesterday because Ernest E. Kellogg, self -tyled may>r, preferred to resign rather than ace a cha:ge of contempt of court. The contempt charges grew out >t an attempt by Kellogg and his attorney to file a record with county officials discrediting a circuit court order which disannexed 2 000 acres of farm land lying adjacent to Lyndhurst. Kellogg had the territory annexed several months ago and the court fight to disannex followed. Kellogg promised to r-s gn as president of the Lyndhurst town board and the court continued the cawe, pending fulfillment of his promise. Kellogg attracted the attention of Indianapolis to the little town 'ying on its outskirst when the mayor prevented fellow town board members from ousting him by threatening them with a revolver. He was convicted on a charge of drawing a deadly weapon. o “Shaker” Described By Former Local Resident An interesting letter has been received by Decatur friends from Miss Edna Crawford, former local resident and for the past several years living in Los Angeles, in which she says in part: "And now, of all thd unusual things, we’ve had a real "tornado”, a wmall one, they called It, but just the same it shows.

Mich., March 25--(U.R) — The Federal Radio Commission today was accused by Gov. Fred VV. Green of Michigan, of placing •iaxz music” above the protection of Michigan citizens. -Nothing will be permitted to i stand in the way of the state’s construction of a state police radio station, Governor Green said, and added that a “fight to the last ditch" will result if the radio board “persists in blocking Michigan’s path.” The radio board yesterday asked Attorney General Mitchell to "arrest the proper person” in event Michigan goes ahead w'ith its station despite the board’s orders. A hearing for a low wave radio liand for Michigan's state tation has been set for May 15, but Governor Green said this was too long to wait in view of the fact •he board looks with disfavor on the state’s request. "The State of Michigan is not engaging in a controversy with tlie radio commission," the governor said. “It is simply asserting a fundamental principle of American government and if the radio commission gets in the way’ It is the commission’s fault, not ours. "The police power has been reserved to the several states. ft is not subject to any limitation but is a sovereign power." The legislature provided funds ‘ for the state* station. Governor ! Green said, and “in the interest of j comity,” the federal board was asked for a wave length. Reports that the Michigan delegation in congress might be asked to intervene in the case were substantiated hy Green’s statement when he said to wait until the board hears the plea for a wave length and renders a decision ; would mean waiting until after, congress was adjourned. “If congressional action were desired, it would then be many months before it could be secured” he said. — Green left no doubt that the state will proceed with its plans. “We have secured bids and are about to contract for our radio station,” he said. “When it is built we will use it. We should have preferred to operate on some wave length satisfactory to the commission but we Insist upon our right to operate it for the protection of Michigan citizens and their property. “If the radio commission believes it’s more important that the ether be filled with jaZz music and advertisements than that criminals be apprehended and punished. that la the commission's privilege. We do not think that way.” Hopes For American Race Victory Fades T ondon. Mar. 25.— (U.R) —The chance of an American victory in the historic grand national steeplechase at Liverpool on Friday—a feat accomplished only twice in nearly a century of the grand national's history— appeared sadly diminished today by the withdrawal of Easter Hero. John Hay Whitney’s high-class jumper looked an outstanding choice until he went lame after the running of the Cheltenham gold cup two weeks ago. After a rapid recovery, he went lame again and yesterday all his engagements were cancelled. The popular young American sportman still has a chance, however, with Sir Lindsay, a good jumper if not a top-noteber. o— .... Get the Habit—l rede at Home,

WOMEN SOLONS APPEAR LIKELY TO KEEP POSTS Six of Eight Up for Reelection and Four Are Without Opposition By Martha Strayer By Unted Press Correspondent Washington. March 25 -(UP) - Th* igen|lewom*n of the Hfiuse seem to have their political situation well In hand. Six of the eight women members of Congress ate running for re-elec-tion, and four of the s x are so far without opposition These are Mrs. Rutn Bryan Owen, tl). Fla), Mrs. Katherine Langley, (R. Ky.) Mrs. Mary T. Norton (D. N. J ), and Mrs. Edi h Nourse Rogers (R. Mass.) Mrs. Ruth Hanna McCormick ii mak ng a strenuous campaign for the Senate in Illinois, and Mrs. Pearl Oldfield, widow of former Ren. Oldfield of Oklahoma, will not run again. Mrs. Owen isn't sure that she will have ho opposition, though none has been announced so far. Florida primaries are in June, so If Mrs. Owen has to campaign she w 11 miss much of the latter part ot he session. Her district is the lour est in the United States; 5)»0 miles long by 100 miles w.de in some sections, utul with a population of hair' a million. She will make an intensive .-ainpaign if she has to make one at all. in order to < onset ve her lime for her work in Washington. Mrs. Kalhriite Langley also has no annotiqced oppoei ion as yet, but tlie Kentucky primaries are not until Align 4. Mrs. Langley is serving her second term in the House, and in her first campaign she was victorious over three masculine opponents, while the second time she was opposed hy only one. Her district is inoun ainotis, with many coal mine and oil-camp communities, so that campaigning there is ardurous. airs. Alary Norton stands so well with her constituents and with her state organization that she really fears no competition. Site is vice chairman of the New Jersey state democratic organization and has been run by her party without opposit. on. She didn't make a speecti in her own behalf during her last campaign, though ,she made many tor the Democratic presidential candidates, Al Smith. Mrs. Florence Kahn of California has Align, t primaries and will begin iier campaign shortly after July 4 She bel eves in short and intensive efforts, rather than long ones more tiresome to the voters. Her district takes In half of San Francisco, and she make- as many speeches as possible during a cam)>aign; usually at meetings ot luncheon clubs and various other gatherings. Mrs. Ruth Baker Prat', rich and handsome congresswoman from New York City, Is the only one of the six who expects to do any house to house canvassing. Het district takes in part of East Side and West S de New Yoik. and includes const!.uents of practically all national! • les. This i- hv uo means a sure Republican district, and she says it took hard campaigning on her part when she was elected in 1928. During that campaign she made a point of doing house to house canvassing in part of each voting area, and she experts o do the same thing this year. Mrs. Edith Nourse Rogers (R. Mass.) will run for her fourth term and likewise has no opposition at yet, nor did she have in her last campaign. She canvasses her districts each two years, however, and she is proud of the fart that though she succeeded her husband, former
