POISON CASES
NOT ALL DUE TO
RIPE OLIVES
SACRAMENTO, Cal., March 19 (by
Associated Press).—Since reports
have come to California from the East
■of poison cases due to eating olives,
an intensive study of the bacillus botu
linus has been undertaken by medical
and zymology experts of the Univer
sity of California and Leland Stanford,
Jr., University,
Professor W. V. Cruess, head of the
aymology laboratory of the University
of California, in a recent statement
here said:
“Professor Bioletti has made a cal
culation based upon the ripe olive out
put of California and the known num
ber of cases of botulinus poisoning
from olives, and finds that one would
have to eat one quart of olives daily
for 3,000 .years to even have slight
chance of being poisoned.
“In other words, commercially
canned or bottled ripe olives are as
safe as any canned food, and safer
than some home-canned foods.
“Cheese has been responsible for a
number of fatal cases of botulinus poi
soning, and sausage is a frequent car
rier of this poison. If we are to con
tinue eating at all we shall have to
fake a slight risk of an unexpected
and painless journey to the Great Be
yond through eating food containing
the botulinus toxine.
“I feel that the present fear of
canned foods existing in certain locali
ties is entirely unfounded, and believe
further that the use of canned olives
or other canned fruits is no more dan
gerous than riding on a street car.
Nevertheless, this fact should not pre
vent our taking every precaution to
prevent poisoning from botulinus
toxin.”

DEVELOPMENT IN OIL
MEXICO CITY, March 19 (by Asso

in the state of Chiapas, marking the
site of a city whose origin and inhab

ste of petroleum development, Gen
site of petroleum development, Gen
eral Norberto Rochin having been
given a concession by the department
of commerce and labor to exploit the
region.

dense forest and were discovered in

istence of a large and prosperous
city. There is no history of what
people built there or where they have
gone. For years the ruins have been
