MERE. RUG CRAZE IS SWEEPING LONDON WITH LUST TO KILL; VICTIMS BUY IT CHEAP, SAID By LYLE ©. WILSON (United Press Staff Correspondent.) LONDON, Nov. 19.—{United Press.)—Poverty-stricken slaves of the English slums have discovered an inexpensive substitute for. co- caine, morphine and hashish. This ghastly stimulant can be obtained without prescription and for a few pennies. It 1s methylated spirit, the hydro- carbon radical of methyl, or wood alcohol. Its effect 1s devastating. An English physician with a large working-class clientele in Liverpool has declared that the practice of drinking methylated spirit is defl- nitely increasing. Especially among the wives of !Il-paid working men has the new evil gained a strong- hold. In every case, this physician de- clared, of extreme nervous disorder which had come to his attention within the last five years, there was evidence of the effect of the drug. In each of these cases it was finally proved that the person treated was addicted to methylated spirit. A recent murder in Glasgow which shocked all Britain was finally established as the deed of a poor woman crazed by the lack of her drug. Killed Newsboy. Her victim was a little newsboy whose few pennies, taken from his butchered body, were sufficient to provide several hours of madly de bauched intoxication for his mur- deress. Already the term “methylated madness” is finding its way into police courts, aslyum records and coroners’ reports. Policemen constantly detafled to handle drug cases have: developed marvelous intuition in deducing the drug employed by the various per- sons who come into their hands. It 1s notorious that drug takers will deny their enslavement to nar- cotics. Even when yellowed skin, trem bling hands and violent fits of temper and insanity plainly tell the tale of drug-crazed minds and muscles, the victims will resolutely refuse to admit their shame. Symptoms of addiction to the drinking of methylated spirit are similar to tho#e of a cocaine fiend. Causes Lust to Kill. Im both cases the drug induces tremendous nervous energy, satis- faction in mind and body, warped thoughts, a false kense of ease and, worst of all, a mad lust to kill, to butcher. Murder committed by a cocaine or methylated-spirit fiend is easily dis tinguished from murder committed during ordinary anger or at the bid- ding of other drugs. The drinker of methylated spirit can and will commit almost tncon ceivable brutality dn the object o its mistaken wrath. Bestlal is no proper name for these excesses. None but a human mind, warped clear away from all human decenc: but retaining the subtle invention « t partly reasoned thought, could con | trive and complete the crimes which have been committed by persons ad dicted to these two drugs. Morphine and hashish-takers are less inclined to acts of violence Murder to obtain possession of the drug they crave is quite within their capabilities, but the pure lust of blood engendered. in the minds of the drinker of methylated spirit is foreign to them. The extent to which this evil has grown in England can be under- stood when it is known that there 1s good authority for the statement that in one particularly congested district in Liverpool no less than two women out of every ten are be. Meved to be habitual drinkers of methylated spirit. Drives Women Insane. “Nine women of every ten certi- fied insane are in that state be- cause of the habit," a Liverpool physician declared. It is even stated by reputable doctors that children now being born in English slum areas show signs of mental and physical taint derived from this vice of their mothers. Strangely enough, the craze seems to be chiefly confined to women. Men have so far been content with alcohol as a stimulant. Though purely monetary consider- ations are foremost in gaining ce- cruits to the new drug, it is a fact that the insidious practice {s gain. ing slightly in the middle and upper class stratas. English physicians are urging the government to immediately enact laws placing the sale of methylated spirit under strict governmental control. eee CONTRAGTS WITH ALIENS ILLEGAL COURT DECIDES WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.—“Crop- ping contracts” with «tleng ineli- gible to own or lease land under the alien lanc, laws of California and Washington were heid by the su- preme court today to be invalid.

LAs WHAT MAN WILL BE LIKE IN 500 YEARS LONDON, Nov. 19.—({United Press.}—Prof. A. M. Low, a British scientist of note has contributed to The London Daily Express an in- teresting forecast of what man will be like in 500 years. Professor Low says: “The past 500 years have seen a gradual change in man. His physt- cal powers have become weaker, his senses are less keen, his teeth are worse, and he would be unable to stand for any length of time the hardships of his forebears. This weakening process will not stop to- day, Therefore, in considering the average man of 500 years hence we} must obviously expect him to be a far weaker creature than he is today owing to the use of many artificial aids. “We cannot expect any striking physical changes in the man of 2423, , for it takes thousands of years to, alter our structure, but he will in a'l probability seek to improve his| body by grafting and electrical treat-| ment and by permanently fixed me- chanical appliances, such as sight correctors—a great improvement on the present clumsy glasses. “He will dress in sensible and! comfortable one-piece clothing in place of the absurd cong'omeration of clothes worn at present and, owing to the increase in baldness, wif wear a hat of some description practically all the time. Eat Less Food “Just as our modern meals are of less importance to us than the ‘spreads’ of olden times, so will the future man pay even less attention to food; one meal a day will possibly suffice, assisted if necessary by ‘snacks’ in concentrated: form, and compared with today, his standard of living will be extremely luxurious. His lower limbs will become atro- of travel on moving sidewalks and communicating by radio will render} any strenuous travel unnecessary. “His educational standard will be very high, without any exception;| thought will be an Infinitely quicker | process, and all amusements will] be of an intellectual variety. Games| of brute strength will die out, box ing will be regarded much as we regard the brutal prize fights of by. gone days, and in every way it will be an age of brains and not brawn.

By 2423 women will have educated and advanced themselves more rapidly than at present seems pos. sible, and will thus be in a position to compete with man in every way. However, as he will scientifical!y understand ‘love,’ he will treat it with far greater respect, “His lUfe will be, relatively speak- ing, far more complex than ours, and by 2423 the study of wave mo: tion will have led to the habitual use of wireless sight, and many other developments of that period. The mental transference of thought —at present claimed by many trick- sters, but not a scientific fact—will be thoroughly understood, and that point alone will increase efficiency and speed up his mode of life gen- eral'y. He will most certainly use a shorter phonetic system of spell- ing.” Painful Accident TORRINGTON.—Frank Smith, an old resident of this locality, while coming to Torrington Saturday eve- ning had the misfortune to drive his car into a ditch two miles this side of Yoder.

The statement adds that decision concerning the Ruhr would be dependent upon agreement with. Belgium. “Certain newspapers svem not to have understood the exact sense of marks.
