Buenos Alres, June 26.—The Ros- ario branch of the Argentine Anti-Al- coholic league has made notable pro- gress, according to Dr. Benito Velaz- co, the prosident of the institution, who told his hearers at a crowded meeting in Rosario recently that the wave of alcoholism, so noticeable all over the world since the close of the war in Europe, had threatened Ar- gentina, but that thanks to the ef- forts of the league it was being suc- cesafully combated in the great cities of the republic. He cited statistics to show that drunkanness was on the decrease and urged his hearers to continue the work of propaganda which Thad proved so heneficial in this respect.

As an ald in catching smug- glers, and a help to coast defense in war time, the invention is regarded as distinctly valuable. The device consists of & search light sending a ray no bigger than a pencll across the space to be controlled, and a receiving apparatus at the other end containing a light- sensitive selenium cell. Whenever a passing vessel interrupts the rays of the search light, the selenium cell closes a relay which starts a bell alarm, or operates a recording device. The instrument in question was tested recently between two points three and one-half miles apart, in the outskirts of Vienna, and the passage of every object, as well as every per- son, was duly recorded. These tests were made in broad daylight, with a 50 candle power incandescent lamp @as the source of light. Why not deposit and $5,000.
