DORAX, chief chemist In the prohibition forces, declares that it is necessary to put into Industrial alcohol, poisons that the bootleggers cannot get rid of when they redistill denatured alcohol to make bootleg whiskey. Senator Reed, of Missouri says that for the government to put poison in alcohol, knowing that citizens will drink the alcohol, is a near approach to murder. However, those foolish enough to drink bootleg whiskey habitually would probably not. live long anyhow; a little longer or shorter life makes little difference. If whiskey ALWAYS killed, instantly, the country would drop its whiskey habit.

Scientists gathered at Williams- town possess the blessed gift of hope. They say chemistry will end all our orries, including food problems. Power locked up in the revolving electrons will run all our machinery; no need of coal, oil or water power. Artificial rubber, better than the genuine, will be made from petroleum. Artificial stone for buildings will take the place of brick shells on buildings.

The best of it is that all this, and much more, is TRUE. The real wealth of the human race is not in oceans, in fertile soil or even in sun-; light. It is principally in the brain of man. Many gentlemen, young and old, not interested in the proceedings of the scientific gathering at Oxford University, are intensely interested in the coming prize fight between Jack Dempsey and Gene Tunney. Some preparing to bet their money on Mr.

Dempsey, may be interested in the advice of one who knows- about fighters and their mental calibre. He says: "Be careful how you bet on a man that is worried, when he has a limited intellect, not calculated to endure worry." Dempsey la worried. He quarreled with his "manager, who threatens to tie up the receipts of his next fight. He hasn't fought for three years and can only guess whether he is as good as ever. Be careful how you bet on him that is -worried.

News from Mexico tells of five Catholic priests executed by a firing squad on the charge of inciting parishioners to revolution they denied the charge before they were killed. News comes also that the Mexican Government proposes to conflscute property of the church.

Hundreds of large tracts worked by Mexicans, and owned by the church, are to be given or sold to the men that worked the land. This is along the lines of Russia's example. William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, says the Federation will not intervene, in Mexico in behalf of the Catholic Church, the matter being a Mexican domestic question. Mr. Green emphasizes the importance of religious freedom.

In addition to the story of five Catholic priests executed in Mexico, Archbishop Leopoldo Ruiz Flores announces thirty other executions Mexicans put to death for leading rebellion against the Government.
