But no longer with the connivance and ald of the United States mails— it Solicitor-General Donnelly of the Post Office Department knows any- thing about it. Gradually but surely they are being eliminated from the mail order business—for those who prey upon the sick in fear of death are considered among the most con- temptible types of criminals by the department. The record of fraud orders issued during the past few months by Post- master General Harry 8. New after Investigations by Donnelly forms in- teresting reading, and reveals what absurd means sick propls will resort to when they are slow to respond to the treatment of the family physiclan. Often Harmless Compounds. In most cases the “fraud” medicines are harmless in themselves. Some of them may have slight curative prop- erties. But they arouse false hope: They lead invallds to distrust repu- table doctors and to delay proper treat- ment until, in many cases, it can do no_good. Take, for instance, a group of young business men with an itch for easy money who operated from a. Midwest. ern city. First they started with an advertising agency and solicited pat- ent medicine accounts. They buljt up a good business, but the profits didn’t come in fast enough. and grad- ually some of the clients began to drop off in their payments. Investi- gation showed that they were not successful. So the advertising men took over the enterprizes. They had 27 dif- ferent remedies on thelr list when the Fost Office Department stepped in, and cut short thelr activities with a, fraud order, which effectively bars them trom using the malls. None of the group had any medical experfence. They didn't know the commonest chemical ingredients of medicines, substances famillar to every pharmacist's clerk. One of them did profess to have studied chemistry at the University of Mis- =sourl. But on investigation it was found that he never had been regis- tered in a chemistry class there. Had Course-in Botany. The records showed, however, that he had taken a course in “general botany.” He claimed that this con- tained enough chemistry to fit him as a preparer of patent medicines to be ordered in treatment of symp- tons described by mail. Among the choice preparations of this company in which they did a rushing business was ‘“rattlesnake 0il,” described as an infallible cure for deafness of any degree. It was to be rubbed on the palms of the hands, which then were to be placed over the ears, so that the vapors could penetrate. This might have had some little value as a famlly remedy for ear- ache and probably originated in this way. Magazine readers were assured that total deafness of long standing could be cured almost instantly by his remedy—“the only truly scientific cure on the market. “Obstinate ses cured in a day,” read the ads. A post office inspector wrote ask- ing for a sample if it was guaranteed to cure a case such as his own—bhoth ear drums completely gone for sev- eral years. He was sold the preparation with the guarantee of an absolute cure. Form Letter to Complainants. Quite often the company ‘got kick- backs, it was learned. When some petient demanded to know why the advertised cure had not taken effect a stenographer would send him a form letter saying that his was one of the most desperate cases which ever had come to the attention of the doctors, but that a cure was cere tain if he would continue to use the medicine. The constituents of this ‘‘rattle- snake oil” (the name afterward was were as follows: Methy) salicylate, ofl eucalyptus, oil camphor, neatsfoot ofl, mustard ofl and zenzol. | The same “doctors” had some mar- velous tablets guaranteed asthma attacks as if by magic. They were a mixture of potassium and iodide, possibly of some very slight value as an asthma palliative. Another remedy was advertised as “killing the germs that cause pimples. Within a week or 10 days it makes the The ingredients of this marvelous preparation were wintergreen oil, cor- rosive sublimate, boric acid, salicylic actd, aleohol, witch hazel and some purple coloring matter, It might have some slight cleansing Ieff?(". | Build Up Scrawny Figures. Vitamin tablets which contained very small amounts of vitamins were advertised as sure buildersup of scrawny flgures and as a means to take on weight without exercise. The “doctors” had a ready answer for anybody who complained of their nostrums. They simply hadn't taken | enough. they had showed illfaith with such' distinguished men of scfence by | consulting their own “ignorant, graft- | ing family doctor: | The investigation showed that this concern received 1,600 bits of mail | daily, most of them containing money | orders. | But these men probably did no great harm. The messes they sold were for the most part harmless, and we:’eg about as good as anybody could offer | o # long-distance diagnosis of general | symptoms. There was not a real phy- | ician in the organization. An uneducated woman in the Middle | West was stopped recently from sell- ing a sure cure for tuberculosis. It | consisted of beechwood creosote, rock candy sirup, wild cherry sirup, glyc-| erine and red coloring matter. It was | | stmply a homemade cough remcdy. It would have absolutely no effect on | tuberculosis.

In cases where | there has been operation there is not a good chance for a healing as where thera has not been operation.” All their letters warned against the advice of reputable physiclans. Their prices were atiff—ran, to $100, with the latter popderant. And in th figure pre rs, 1t to stop | 1|l Weathers ging_from $35 || MAKERS HIT SNAG IN USE OF U. S.

It was sure to take off some fat in this way. If tho process wasn't fast enough the user was chided for his impatience, warned to keep away from the doctors and urged to buy more soap.. It was a mixture of jodide- potassium, sassafras and cocoanut ofl--a very ordinary soap. The latest case acted upon with a fraud order is that of psycosulphene, advertised as a sure cure for various diseases. The application method was to place a pinch In the toes of both shoes—or in the stockings if the patient was bedridden and didn’t wear shoes. This was supposed to cure in a few weeks asthma, failing eyesight, high blood pressure and bladder trou: ble. Analysis by the Bureau of Chem- istry of the Department of Agricul- ture, which does this work for the Post Office Department, showed that it was worthless, despite the protests of the maker that it was according to the formula of ““German chemists.” DRIVER LOSES PERMIT RECENTLY RESTORED Harold W. Dill Jailed Pending Trial on Charge of Driving While Drunk. Harold W, Dill, 31 vears old, a chauffeur, of 1126 Tenth street, who but a few days ago was granted res- toration of his automobile operator's permit. vesterday in Traffic Court was served with a second revocation of the permit, and was remanded to jail in $1.000 bond, pending trial on a charge of_driving while drunk. Dill was arrested Friday night by Traffic Policeman A. E. Brown at Tenth and K streets after he is al- leged to have collided with three ma- chines and damaged two front lawns. He was charged with driving while intoxicated. The defendant pleaded mnot guilty when arraigned before Judge Isaac R. Hitt in Traffic Court and demanded jury trial. He was unable to raise §1,000 bond and was sent to Jail. Complainants named are John Thomas, 1549 Columbia street, whose motor cycle was damaged, and Mary Laber of tho Alabama Apartments. Eleventh and N streets, the lawn of which was torn up. The lawn of the Chastleton Apartments, Sixteenth and R streets, also suffered during the serfes of accldents. Police could not give the names of other witnesses, No testimony was taken during the arraignment at court and exact infor- mation regarding the affair was lack- ing. Officials of the first, second and third police precincts, where the acci dents occurred, said no report had been made of the case, and at the Traffic Bureau it was said only a statement of the disposition of the charges would he made at a later date. Officer Brown said he gave chase and arrested the man when fnformed of the accidents. He found him in- toxicated, he said, and charged him at the first precinct station with driv- ing while drunk., He sald he knew nothing further about the case. A trail of property damage, how- ever, found in the wake of Dill's car will be used as evidence against him. 32 WOUNDED IN RIOT. Prisoners in Jamaica Penitentiary Attempt to Escape.

By Radio to The Star. end of the coal strike seems In sight. ‘The House of Commons reassembled Monday for the purpose of reinforcing emergency measurez. The meeting was notable for the coneiliatory speech of Chancellor of the Exchequer Win- ston Churchill. Thursday the miners’ delegates assembled in London and by 332,000 votes gave their executives a free hand to negotiate a settlement, the only conditions being that the set- tlement {8 to be national. This con- dition is designed to preserve the solidarity of the Miners’ Federation, which is in imminent peril of dissolu- tion. A remarkable fact was that the South Wales miners, who were rg- garded as the most belligerent ele- ment, voted heavily in favor of a set- tlement. The fact is that the miners are utterly weary of the struggle and their wives are weary of having their husbands on their hands. 1f an end to the strike is not reach- ed by agreement, obviousiy it will he reached by disintegration of the min- ers’ movement. The drift back to work in the midlands has assumed real magnitude, and in the absence of a national settlement, district settle- ments are {nevitable. The miners" executives are now confronted with the task of getting the miners out of the morass into which they led them. A. 1. Cook has entirely dropped his slogan and is advocating moderation, avhile Herbert §mith now represents the more irreconcilable attitude. It is clear that the question.of both hours and wages will be discuseed and that the miners, after a strike of nearly flve months, will return to work on terms certainly not better than those they could have had in April. In the meantime all the union’: funds have been dissipated and indi- vidual savings are gone. The fact is that when the general strike collapsed ignominfously in May, the miners’ struggle was doomed. Tts failure was confirmed by two other facts. The expectation that forelgn miners would refuse to work on coal for export to England and that the transport workers would r~fuse to handle the foreign coal = , 'ntirely disappointed. The forc ininers reaped a harvest providui..i:ily flung to them and contented themselves with meager contributions to the givers of the harvest. The only sub- stantial contributions came from Rus- sia and were entirely political in their motive. A second fact is the unsuspected ca- pacity of the country to survive a pro- lohged stoppage of the coal industry. The leaders assumed that paralysis of trade in the country would be more immediate and severe than events have proved to be the case. The in- crease in general unemployment has been considerable and the injury to business has been great, but the con- sequences have been much less dis- astrous than anticipated. (Covyrixht. 1926.) ..

The advantages and attractiveness of a boulevard along the route of the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal, between Washington and Cumberland, as pro- mmis- { posed recently by Engineer Com fis | sioner Bell, were enthusiastic: | tured in @ letter from Fred G. Coldren. secretary of the National Capital Park and Planning Commission, made public at the District Bullding vester- day. s Mr. Coldren said the proposition de- serves the most serious consideration and suggested a carefu! study of the legal questions involved. g Col. Bell has not had an opportunity to take up the plan with the planning commission itself. The letter from Mr. Coldren was merely in reply to one addressed to him by Maj. W. I. | Covell, assistant Dngineer Commis- sioner, who is gathering information on the proposal for Col. Bell. Mr. Coldren expressed the personal bellef that a highway along the bluffs overlocking t‘ha rmer e attractive an e coute of the canal, aithough it probably would be more expensive Ind would sacrifice the advantage of the uniform grade established by the one following by’ soon will take with the Park ssion, of which Cat up the plan officially and Planning Commi; he is a member.

Mr. Coldren's letter to Maj. Covell says art: e P know that eme of the prominent reasons that caused (Gieorgo Washington to prefer the Po- tomac for the location of the Na- tional Capital was not only that it was substantially midway between the North and South geographicall and at that time both as to popula- tion and wealth, but also because this was the river tributary to the At- lantic which arose furthest to the West, and, therefore, constituted the best grade opening throush the most. of the Allegheny Mountain system, foward the center of the Western country. The other rivers, like the Hudson, Delaware and Susquehanna, ran much more nearly from north to South, and the rivers south of the Potomac, such as the Rappahannock, James, etc., did not rise nearly so far s the Potomac. Ve Al 'that for this very reason Washington strongly advocated and worked to bring about water trans- portation connection between the Ohio River and the Potomac, and the old ‘Potomac Co.’ of which Washington was (he first president, was organized -arry out that object. o Yine same reason the valley of the Potomac furnishes a grade of easy and gradual elevation from the tidewater level at Washington City through the firt and gecond main ranges of the Allegheny system, and reaches so far west as to approach within a comparatively short distance of the large waterw: flowing to the Ohio on the west side of the Ap- palachian divide. “To be sure, this plan for connected waterway was never carried out be- yond Cumberland, but as far as that point there was constructed and main- tained until recently the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, following the natural course and banks of the Potomac River. This canal bed and banks stand now as by all means the easies grade from Cumberland to tidewater of the Potomac at Georgetown. “Besides this matter of grade. any kind of highway following either the actual canal bed or the banks pos sesses a_ very exceptional scenic beauty. To a remarkable extent and alimost continuously. the banks of the Potomac River on both sides present today an unbroken forest view, and this forest containsa very exceptional variety of trees, both hardwoods and cone-bearing. “As the elements that add most to the beauties of a highw#¥ are (A) a route not straight, lqut of long sweep- ing curves, (B) a location which over- looks water, (C) & background of forest (2277700777 127/ 22 771722220 1117112700012 2T AL 112001111 2217 L I IS A L1 AL L AL L7 partments for Rent TERRACE 1601 Argonne Place Just North of olumbia Road at 16th PORCH APARTMENTS ARE NOW AVAILABLE FOR TMMEDIATE OCCUPANCY. bath with shower to 5 rooms, and PORCH. 1432 K Street of the most urged! ultra-exclusive building. rice is but $10.800 for living room, ed chamber, dining alcove, recep- tion hall, kitchen and bath—all thoroughly modern and in an en- vironment of the utmost refine- ment.

The popularity of the National Capital as an object of visit has In- creased enormously and there is every reason to expect that the increase will continue and will grow. “A properly constructed automobile hway along the route of the Chesa- peake and Ohio Canal from Cumber- 1and to this city would form the natu- ‘al course for private vehicles for a large part of the central and western portions of the Union and thls route would be more appealing. I would think, than any other, from the standpoints of beauty, historic in- terest, grade and distance. Many Factors Involved. “The acquisition of the bed of this canal for such a _highway invelves the righta of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Co., as affected by the original charter to the Potomac Co., sund acts of Congress, early purchase of nal company stock by United States, ownership of honds by the Raltimore and Ohio Railroad, etc. “T understand that a point has heen raised by the canal company that as a portion of its route has once heen acquired hy condemnation proceedings for & public purpose such land is not again subject to condemmation for another public purpose. “On the other hand, I am told that it is believed that the rights of the canal company have been forfeited by abandonment of the use of the property for transportation purposes. the acquisition having been for that purpose only. “The subject covers a multitude of questions, solutions of which, in my judgment, might best be hastened by provisiol for employment, presum- ably by the Department of Justice, of the best legal talent to be had, at least one controlling attorney and an assistant, who should devote their entire and exclusive time to the solu- tion of the various legal questions involved, as a basis for any further legislation or executive action. “I regard the acquisition of this route for an automobile approach to Washington, of the dignity and im- co of a leading national scenic highway, as deserving of the most serious consideration,” FOUR DIE OF BOTULISM.
