The alcohol consumred by a mod- erate drinker, he explained; in- creases the resistance of the body to disease, despite the general im- pression to the contrary and in one after the age of 30 experi- ments have shown it has no effect whatever on legnth of life, Ex- cessive consumption of aleohol, the professor said, was admittedly injurious. The impression that the con- sumption of alcohol in any quan- tity was injurious to health and shortened human life, he said, ean partly be traced to the insurance companies statistics on drinkers and abstalners, in which heavy, moderate and occasional drinkers are all lumped together. The heavy drinkers, he sald, drag down the average of the others, so that the total effect seems to indicate that absainers have a bet. ter chance of life and health than drinkers. Dr. Stockard has conducted ex- periments with alcohol upon gui- nea pigs for the last 17 years, us- ing more than 65,000 guinea pigs in his experiments. The general conclusion to be drawn from his exhaustive resources, he said, was that alcohol did noc only not harm the guinea pigs to which it was fed regularly, but that it actually benefitted their health and in- creased their life span. The ex- periments of other scientists bear him out, Dr. Stockard said. Jsut as Healthy Dr. Stockard showed lantern slides of two guinea pigs which he used for comparison in a series of tests lasting four years and two months. One pig was allowed no ateokol; the other was intoxicated m% times a week for four years. Both pigs lived approximately the same time and the health of the alco- holic pig was never worse and frequently better than the other. In all his experimentation, Dr. Stockard remarked, he had found only one harmful result of alco- hol. The percentage of deaths of the embryo of guinea pigs is great er in the case of the pigs fed with alcohol than the non-alcoholic ani- mals. Dr. Stockard also eited tests made by other scientists upon health of children of drinkers, which showed that such children were just as tall and just as healthy on the average as the children of abstainers. Alcohol has positive benefits as a food and a drug. Dr. Stockard insisted, citing technical uses of alcohol as a drug, and declaring that a good alcohol may help and stimulate growth and bodily deve- lopment. Dr. Stockard closed his paper with a plea for regulation of a cohol, so that the excess of the heavy drinkers should not deprive the moderate drinker of alcohol. Other Addresses Dr. Stockard's paper was one of three presented. The others were Dr. Samuel W, Lambert's on "The medicinal use of aleohol in the acute infectious diseases," and Dr Harlow Brooks on "The medicinal use of alcohol in the diseases of the aged." v . Dr. Lambert, who is president of the New York Academy of Medicine, described alcohol as "a food of high caloric value." As a 1rug, he said, it is a necessity in the treatment of acute infectious 'evers, In certain exceptional cases of pneumonia, he sald, a pa- tient might require a pint of whis. ky a day, diluted and administer- ed in small doses. Mr. Brooks declared alcohol to Ye especially valuable in the treat. ment of the aged. Aged patients suffering from angima pectoris, he said, are often benefitted by wine or a '"highball" with their meals and bed time. suffering from general debility, will find beer "soothing, nourish- ing and euphoric," he said. He referred to wine as "the milk of old age." Dr. Alexander Lambert, former president of the American Medical Association, dissented from his brother, Dr. Samuel Lambert, as to the use of alcohol in pneumonia cages, but said he considered it sometimes beneficial in exhaustion convalescence after the acute f-»- brile stages have passed. He al- 80 recommends fits use for the aged. Several of the speakers deplor- ed the low quality of medicinal liquor dispensed by 'the drug stores. Dr. Wolff Freudenthal said "The hootleggers sell better stuff than these licensed vendors of our Government dispense." Y. Medical Association |! the i v Norman H.

Oshawa nl CAPTAIN KOLBE TO RESUME COMMAND German Naval Officer Gave Reception to Former Kaiser's Brother Berlin, Dec. 23.--Captain Hans Kolbe, commander of the German cruiser Berlin, will be allowed fo resume command of his ship after submitting to an. examination re- garding the reception he recently accorded to Price Henry of Prus- sla, the former Kaiser's brother, the Lokal Anzeiger sald Tuesday. Following the Prince Henry epi- sode which the Republican press considered as an unpermissable royalist demonstration, Minister of- Defense Otto Gessler hastily sum- moned Kolbe from Spain, where his cruiser was ai anchor. He was to have made a round-the-world trip. The Lokal Anzeiger reports that President Hindenburg interceded when Gessler and Zenker, chief of the naval staff, disagreed concrn- ing the disciplining of Captain Kolbe. Gessler was said to have con- demned the reason, while Admiral Zenker was understood to have in- sisted it was harmless. From the settlemnt, it appears to the Lokal Anzeiger that- Hindenburg agrees with the Admiral.

GALLOP AGAIN GIVES EVIDENCE Fourth Trial on Charge of Murdering Husband Nears End BOUGHT POISON .|Says Husband Put Stry- chnine Into Epsom Salts Box Quebec, Dec. 23.--Mrs. Abraham i | Gallop, who is undergoing her 4th trial for murder, took the stand {lin her own defence Tuesday, and was questioned at length by Alleyn Taschereau, K.C., her counsel, Her movements during the im- } mediate period preceding Gallop's death and the days following, formed the basis of her evidence, while she also told of purchasing the strychnine which is alleged to have caused her husband's death, Mrs. Gallop stated during the i| course of her evidence that her husband had used strychnine at Napadogan, N.B,, in fox hunting expeditions in the trapping terri- tory of Pete :Budeau, who, they had known for 12 years. She ex- plained how poison was inserted into fox bait. Mrs. Gallop describ- ed receiving two letters on the day she had got the bottle of poi- son from Dr. Bouille, one of which was from Mrs. Simpson. stating that Jack Simpson hat gone into the woods for 17 days, which had caused her husband to say "That knocks the trip in the head." The witness testified that on the day she secured the bottle of strychnine her husband had open- ed the bottle, transferring some of its contents into a small box. which was labelled "Epsom Salts." He had told her to ship the bottle to Pete Budeau but did not know what he had done with the box. Mrs. Gallop also testified that her husband suffered from inci. gestion and heart trouble when she first met him. At times he drank heavily and then the trou- bles would become J become acute, AWARD OF BOARD FILED WITH COURT Western U. S.

Y. Maritime Exchange Urges Measures to Safe- guard Interests New York, Dec. 23.--Charges that United States shipping is be- ing discriminated against by Great Britain, Canada and Australia are contained in a resolution recently forwarded to President Coolidge and heads of government depart- ments by the New York Maritime Exchange, which urges that the United States adopt retaliatory measures to safeguard its interest The Exchange cites Canadian regulations, which require that cargoes destined for Canada mrust be routed through Canadian port and not through United Stafes ports in order to obtain prefer. ential duties and also sets forth the understanding that cattle ship- ped from the United States vis Canada may remain in England for fatening before being slaughtered whereas if the cattle are sent from the United States they must be slaughtered' {immediately on ar- rival in England. Receiving Attention The State Department has al- ready advised the Exchange that the nations referred to in the reso- lution are receiving the careful attention of the department, but that the information in the hands of the department with respect to the shipment of cattle does not coincide precisely with that con- tained in the resolution. The de- partment's information that Cana- dian cattle are admitted to the United Kingdom for feeding pur- poses, while American cattle must be slaughtered in quarantine with- in 10 days after arrival, The Canadian cattle must be shipped from a Canadian port ap parently for the reasom that they must be inspected by veterinary officers of the Canadian Govern- ment before shipment, and it is the view of the State Department that the loss of such traffic to American ports appears to be incidental rather than the primary object of the regulations in question. tions of the Australian Govern- ment applying to Pacifie ports. the State Department states that representations have been made to the Government of Australia in regard to the preferential treat- ment accorded merchandise ecom- ing from Canadian Pacifie ports as compared with that imported from American Pacific ports, but that the Australian Government has indicated an unwillingness to remove the regulations, Difference Made The regulations provide that in the case of trafic moving through Vancouver, as compared with the United States Pacific ports, the amount of freight charges up to the United States Pacific coast is added to the value for duty pur- poses when entering Australia, but the freight charges accruing in Canada up to the port of Vancou- ver are not so added. It is under stood that further representations are being considered by the Uni- ted States Government. In the resolution adopted by the Maritime Exchange it was sug- gested that if the respective Gov- ernments decline to entertain suit- StoBIE- ForLonG ¢@ BONDS go Office: Reford Bu BAY AND WELLINGTON STS.

RAYON'S POPULARITY DEMANDS MORE SPACE Ontario Silknit, Limited Takes Over Former Cana- dian Kodak Building Ontario Silknit, Limited of Can- ada, have purchased the former Canadian Kodak Building, Toron- to, which will be remodeled and put into thoroughly up-to.date condition to house the growing group of industries which the firm have developed. Ontario Silknit, Limited was or- ganized in 1922 to manufacture lockstitch rayon, the new fabric which is largely replacing silk and cotton for women's wearing appar- el. It has become the popular fabric for lingerie, and Is being used more and more for women's dresses. When, in 1922, the company first commenced manufacturing in Tor- onto, they confined their opera- tions to fabrics. In 1924, they ex- tended operations to include the manufacture of lingerie, scarfs. and men's neckwear. Later, they produced women's knitted rayon dresses, and one year ago. they introduced the now famous "May Belle" brand of lingerie. All Ontario Silknit are dyed and finished in the company's own dyeing plant. They have added different plants to their group from %ime to time, and these will now a!l be gathered under. one roof. The outlook for the com ing year is guch that the full ca pacity of thy new building, which provides double the old space, will ha ont ta usa.
