DRUNKENNESS MORE PREVALENT, PHYSICIAN m Medical Association Asks Liberal Liquor Provisions for Doctors, By United Press CHICAGO, June 11. —Drunkenness is more prevalent rfdw than before .prohibition, Dr. Charles Chalmers, Forrest Hills, X. Y., told the United Press today. Dr. Chalmers is author of resolution calling for a liberalization of the Volstead act, so far as it affects physicians, adopted by the house of delegates of the American Medical Association in convention here. “From my observation in hospitals I am convinced there are more cases of drunkenness today than before prohibition,” Dr. Chalmers declared “Immediately after prohibition went into effect I noticed a change for the better, but the pendulum has now swung the other way.” Says Lio.uor Necessary Dr. Chalmers, however, does not advocate repeal nor changes in the dry law permitting the return of liquor, tut he does demand more freedom for physicians. Liquor is absolutely necessary in the treatment of many diseases, he said. “In some cases it determines between life and death,” he said. “I believe the majority of physicians in America realize its value and stand back of the resolution. “The eighteenth amendment works an injustice on the medical profession, both practical and in spirit, It hampers us in caring for the sick; it comes between us and our patients. Not for Beverage “I neither ask nor desire, however. that any exception whatever be made for the physician or his patient in the use of liquor as a beverage.” Dr. Oscar Dowling Shreveport, La., who led the opposition to the resolution, declared in an interview: “Whisky has no rightful place in the treatment of disease. Many claims are made for it. but in my practice I have found that cases in which alcoholic liquor was suggested as ,a remedy could be treated just as wed, if not better, by other means.” TWO ARE FOUND DEAD Womam Stabbed; Man Shot Through Head. By Cnit:\d Press EDW.I RDSVILLE, 111., June 11.— Bodies oA a woman slashed from ear to ear ar,,d a man shot through the head weni found today on the Alton road, two miles from here.

Both lived in Alton. Diamond rings on the woman's hands an<l jewelry and money on the man’s tx*dy precluded a theory of robbery.

You re Dead at 96 By Times Special LOGAXo.-'ORT, Ind., June 11. —Francis A. Markey of Lucerne, despite his 96 years, is very much alive. He cultivates gardens and reads without glasses. His insurance company, however, has declared him legally dead, and as such he has received payment on a policy which specified that benefici aries were to be paid the principal and accrued dividends at his death.

SIX GOOD REASONS now at the start of the season for no more than you would have to pay later.

ALL GO AT SEA TO AT SAND AN YE WEST RAW

The jumble of words shown above apparently is nonsensical. But if the gaps between the words are changed; that is, if the letters are all pushed together, and then broken apart in different places, an intelligible sentence may be formed. The only word that remains as shown is the introductory word “all” at the top. Can you form the new sentence? Yesterday’s answer: If a pint of water weighed a pound and a pint of sand also weighed a pound, water would be heavier than sand For water is measured by liquid measure, which contains 28.875 cubic inches to the pint, while sand is measured by dry measure, with 33.60 cubic inches to the pint. Thus it would require only 28.875 cubic inches of water to balance 33.60 cubic inches of sand, and water would, obviously, be the heavier!

LADY LUCK TELLS WILLIAM GOO’ BYE Jailhouse, Loss of Pianny, Punctured Ear and Stove, Mean Wife, That’s All.

Juvenile court trials often develop a style and technique all their own. Judge Frank J. Lahr does much of the questioning himself, and when time is not pressing, the defendant is given a chance to explain everything in his own style. Then the judge draws his own conclusions. For the sake of the story the defendant's name is William. “Well, William, what are you here for this time?” inquired Judge Lahr. “Don’t know, your honor,” replied William, a small colored man with a dirty bandage around his head. “Her (pointing at a policewoman) and my wife got somepin’ up their sleeve. Plenty Court and No Maybe “Less git this over with, Jedge. I been settin’ ’round courts all day. This vere’s the third court I been in today. Settin’ ’round courts don’t git a man nothin’, '’specially if he’3 on trial. I gotta go to work at 10 tonight, and here I has been in a justice of peace court bout the furniture bein’ took back, down to the police court, ’bout the constable shootin’ me through the ear, and j now they got me here. Let’s go.” “What’s he charged with?” asked Judge Lahr, smiling. “Neglect of child,” replied the policewoman. "His little boy graduates from grade school and can’t attend the exercises because William won’t buy him a suit." Knows His Arithmetic “How can I buy that child a suit?” demanded William. “Have to pay a lawyer sl4 today to go to police court ’count that old constable, and have to pay on pianny." ’Piano! You don’t mean to say you harp a piano?" a?Jked the judge. “Yes, suh! Fine player-pianny,” returned William. “Cost $640, and I got it half paid for. I was payin’ on anew S7O stove, but that constable come out and wanted to take it back.” “Was that when you got shot?" asked the judge. "Yes, suh. I resisted and he outs with his weapon and. boom! —right through the old ear. Tried to hit me in the haul. Then old bullet went right on through that heatin’ stove, and made a hole big as a half dollah. Don’t mind the ear so much, it’ll grow back, jedge, but that new meatin’ stove is mint. A person’s goin’ a need that stove to keep warm by comes winter.” Has Talking Machine, Too “Well, now, about this piano and graduation suit, do you think you need a player piano?” pked Judge Lahr. "Yes. jedge, he bought a great big talkin' machine, $165. and says he goin’ buy a automobile,” screeched the wife.

“Just how much do you earn a week?” 'asked the judge. “He gits $22 a week,” said the wife. “He makes good money!” “Musical instruments in the house worth SBOS and no money for the children’s clothes!” commented Judge Lahr. “What do you suggest?” he asked the wife. “I want him to pay me sl2 a week and stay away from me and them kids. He’s mean.” “What! Take all my money and leave all my furniture, especially that pianny?” demanded the outraged William. t Let’s Go to Jail Now “Well, you pay her sl2 a week and live somewhere else awhile,” ordered the judge. “You can begin Saturday. You can take your piano.” William disconsolately retired to the waiting room of the court. “Come on, boy, take me down to jail,” he told Bailiff William Fahey. “They knows I done have to pay that lawyer sl4 Saturday. Well, sl2 and sl4 is $26, and I draws $22.50. It can’t be did. Figure it up yourself.” Engineers Plan Demonstrations Indianapolis stationary engineers are planning a series of practical demonstrations to be given in Chamber of Commerce rooms next Monday at 8 p. m. The experiments have been arranged by the State boiler inspection department. Prof. H. D. Keller will speak on “Heat Treatment, Warpage and Cracking of Metal.”
