"Don't drink beer, malt or other alco
holics" was Dr. J. M. Alkln's advice to
nursing mother given at tha baby health

of drinking beer and malt Is due to an
erroneous assumption that It Increases

Alkln. "It I ths man who drinks, but
never gets drunk, the moderate drinker,
whose nervous system Is deteriorated and
who la physically unable to resist any Ill
ness. Not only is he a prey to all Ill
nesses, but alcoholism Is a handicap to
wards his recovery. Physicians dislike
to treat such a patient because he has
no resistance. If it is lung trouble, the
physician Is ready to write the death
certificate."
'If there was no alcoholism, tha whit
plague would be wiped out -in four genera
tion," said Dr. Alkln. Th evil of clgaret
smoking were also enlarged upon by the
speaker. "The effect of clgaret smoking
ar more quickly apparent than alcohol.
It la worse than the hypodermic."
Oreat geniuses are high-class degener
ate, according to Dr. Alkln, who I a
specialist for nervous and mental dis
eases. "In musical or literary geniuses
this on phase is developed at the expense
of every othr aid of their make-up," h
said.

10USE YOTES FOR
TARIFF SUGAR
lepublicans Attack Underwood
Simmons Law in Reply to
Kitchin. "
CANNON LAUDS ALDRICH ACT
WASHINGTON, March IT. With
thirteen democrat and the one so
cialist member opposing th house
today by a rote of 346 to 14 passed
the administration bill to retain the
present tariff of 1 cent a pound on
sugar instead of permitting the free
clause of the Underwood-Simmons
tariff act to go into effect May 1
next. The measure now goes to the
senate.
Voting against the bill were Rep
reeentatlves Bailey of Pennsylvania;
Buchanan. Sabath. McAndrews a
Tavenner of Illinois, Callaway
Tavaa Crnancr and Gordon, of Ohio
Iiiniarrl r,f Colorado. Howard or
Georgia, Johnson of Kentucky,
Thompson of Oklahoma and Vandyke
of Minnesota, democrats, and London
of New York, socialist.
Majority Leader Kltchln took th floor
to close tho argument. It was on of th
few times Mr. Kltchln ha appeared for
an administration measure during tha
session. A rapid exchange resolved itself
into a aeneral assault upon and defense
of th entlr UnderwooqSimmong tariff
act. Opening with th declaration that
th republican party wa th original
free sugar organisation In tha United
States and quoting from congressional
reoords and campaign books of tha early
90 to prove hi assertions, the majority
loader drew attack from former Speaker
Cannon and other republican.
Th sole cause for th proposed repel
of th free sugar clause, Mr. Kltchln
said, waa that Import had fallen off.
du to th European war. making the
sugar taxe necessary to meet the ex
pense of tha government. Incidentally h
declared the democratic party never had
committed Itself to a free sugar act for
all time.
"I have heard a great many people de
nounoo the Underwood act, but I have
not heard a solitary, single republican de
fend tha Payne-Aldrlch law," he added.
"Th Payne-Aldrlch tax I approved of
then," Interrupted Mr. Cannon, "and I
hav never apologised for It alnc, and i
would to God It wer on th atatut bosVs
now."
"Then you are repudiating th platform
of th republican party In 1912." Mr.
Kltchln replied, "a you promised to re
vise th tariff after a commission had
acted and specifically declared th Payne
tariff act waa too high and ought to be
cut down."
