Mayo, of Rochester, Minn, declared in an address be- fore the 76th meeting of the Am- erican Ohemical Society here. "It is assumed," Dr, Mayo sald, "that the drinking of spiritous and fermented liquors is due to an evil inborn longing, to be stamped out only by the exercise of individual self-control, Is this true? "In France and Italy the drink- ing of billions of gallons of wine saved the people from extinction; they could not have lived had they drunk their polluted water. The Teutonic countries turned to heer to secure a sterile drink; England had ale and wine, and temperance countries, such as Turkey, had tea and coffee, "Simultaneously with Vienna's introduction of a pure water sup- ply from the mountains, her per capita consumption of spiritous and fermented liquor was reduced spon- taneously 40 per cent, The intro duction of a pure water supply in the various states in our country has been followed by a temperance movement, and finally by prohibi- tion. "Uncontrolled combustion of food material 1s the most important feature of the growth of cancer," Dr. Mayo said. "Only 10 per cent of the general population suffer from cancer," he continued, "We may assume that this incidence is not accidental, but that 90 per cent of the people are more or less immune to the cause or causes of the disease." Discussing the advances in med!. cine, Dr. Mayo told students at Washington University that "in the 16th century the average life- time of a man was but 20 years." 'The microscope," he said, "has given us knowledge of the cause, cure and prevention of disease, thereby increasing the average lifes 2 vo ye:irs.

N.Y, DEMOCRATS SUPPORT SHITH Back Governor as Candidate For Nomination as President New York, April 19.--The New York State Democratic Committee announced its support of Govermor Alfred E. Smith as the Democratic candidate for nomination as Presi- dent of the United States. Shortly after the convening of delegates, former Lieutenant Gov- ernor George R. Lunn, Schenec- tady, offered a resolution saying Smith's name would be represented to the convention at Houston and asked for the support of the dele- gates. He followed with 2 summary of the activities of Smith and a critic- ism of the Republican regime. He said after the election of President Harding "a regime of corruption followed which did not hesitate to lay unclean hands even on menr bers of the President's Cabinet" and that the Republicans were wic- torious in 1924 because the people could mot believe the oil scandal charges. His resolution was adopted un- animously after a seconding speech by Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt. The following. delegates-at-large to the Democratic National Con- vention at Houston were selected: John W. Davis, Frapkiin D. Roosevelt, Mayor James J. Walk- er, Norman KE. , Elizabeth Marbury, Mrs. Caroline O'Day, Mrs. William H. Goode and Mrs. Henry Morgenthau. SO THAT'S WHY .

MAYOR LAYS CORNERSTONE FOR FRENCH HOSPITAL = u- Ceremony Attended by Dip- Officials New York, April 19.--With rows of grimy steel and cement workers grinning down at him from the skeleton structure above and lead- ing members of the French colony grouped smilingly about, Mayor Walker grasped a shiny new trowel and laid the cornerstone for the new 12-storey French hospital un- der construction at 324-340 West Thirtieth Street. 'Representatives of, the French ambassador, French consul-general in New York, and he various reli- glous denominations of the eity and leaders in civic life attended the ceremony, The building will be completed next December at a eost of $2,000,000 and occupied early in 1929, The mayor's business-like mani- pulation of the trowel brought chuckles of amusement from the workmen overhead, A previous sally from "His Honor" following his introduction to spectators by Lucien Jouvaud, president of the hospital, had put them in good humor, A wag perched several stories up on the hospital building shouted "Hello, Jimmie. Come on in," as the mayor stepped forward to speak, "I'll be in," he replied, "but not a8 soon as you think." Congratulating the members of the French colony upon the new hospital, Mr. Walker went on to say that it represented but one of their many contributions toward the welfare of the eity, Open to all Creeds "You have the gratitude of the coty of New York, for this insti- tution where the doors will always be open to the afflicted of all classes and creeds," he sald, "It is a monument to the good feeling of the French people towards Amer- fea and to the sympathy of this great city for all the aficted. "And now," he broke off, "where do 1 go to work?" Introducing the mayor, Mr. Jou- vaud said that the French, Benevo- lent Society, which is sponsoring the hospital, is one of the oldest charitable institutions in the city, having been founded in 1808. The present French hospital at 450-458 West Thirty-Fourth street was built in 1902 and has a capacity | of 106 beds. the patients are French, new building 176 beds will he available, including 60 private rooms which will rent at $30 . week, Only 10 per cent of In the Ward for Actors The hospital will also include two four-bed wards, to be main- tained in perpetuity by the National Vaudeville Artists' Association for members of the theatrical profes- sion, : The congratulations and best wishes of the French Government were presented by M. Gerreau- Dombasle, commercial attache in New York, on behalf of the French Ambassador, The common effort of Frenchmen and Americans in the construction and operation of such a hospital] is an {illustration of the sympathetic bonds which unite the two natious, he said, call- ing attenion to the extent of Am- erica's contribution towards the restoration of the devastated re- gions of France, Consul-General Maxime Mongen- dre was represented by Andre Brouzet, French consul {in New York." The {invocation was pro- nounced by Rabbi Nathan Krass, the benediction by the Rev. Dr. John Maynard, Rector of the Epis- copal Church of the Holy Spirit (French-Huguenot), representing Bishop William T. Manning, and the blessings by Monsignor M. J.
