HUNDREDS ILL
FROM STRANGE
MALADY IN IOWA
SIOUX CITY, la., Feb. 20— Follow- !
ing hundreds of cases of sickness 1
among residents of Leeds, a suburb,
and several cases reported in Sioux j
City proper in the last week, Health j
Commissioner W. I). Hayes has an- j
nounced that the water supply of
Leeds is contaminated and unfit for i
use. Just how serious the situation
may develop cannot be stated for sev
eral days, according to health author
ities. Many of those ill are children,
physicians report.
The strange malady first was brot
to the attention of health officials
when physicians in Leeds and several
in Sioux City, reported that several,
hundred persons had been attacked
with the disease, which according to
physicians, manifests itself in acute
stomach disorders, accompanied by
sharp pains and vomiting. It usually
lasts from 24 to 36 hours.
The water supply at Leeds and at
Sioux City has been treated with chlo
rides, and Dr. Hayes has urged that
all persons be vaccinated against ty
phoid fever. The period of inocula
tion for typhoid fever is about 14 days
it is said.
AMERICANS BUY 95 PER CENT
OF LIQUOR SOLD AT BANFF
CALGARY, Alta., Feb. 20.—Ninety
five per cent of the “hard” liquor sold
at the Albert government liquor ven
dor’s in Banff, famous Rocky moun
tain resort last summer, was purchas
ed by Americans, the year end check
of liquor permits reveals.
A permit to buy liquor is rapidly
becoming as prominent a part of the
equipment of a touring motorist in
Alberta as a tent or a frying pan, ac
cording to Banff officials.
A similar condition prevails at all
the central points on the scenic trails
through the mountains of Alberta and
British Columbia. While it is not even
remotely suggested that open sale of
booze is the chief attraction to tour
ists in Western Canada, it is an un
doubted fadt that many motor sched
ules are laid out so that the end of
each tourist day brings the motor par
ty to a town where a government li
quor store it situated. And they are
placed at strategic intervals along the
route that bring them within easy au
tomobile distance of one another.
MOVIES GET THIRD
PLACE ON LIST OF
'‘EVIL INFLUENCES”
HOLLYWOOD, Cal., Feb. 19—The
movies stand third in a list of in
fluences menacing character build
ing in the youth of today, compiled
from a vote of 141 boys and girls,
in the Hollywood high school, right
here where the films are ground out.
The students place automobiles and
lurid newspaper stories ahead of mo
tion pictures as evil influences. Pet
ting parties, clubs and the lack of
religion also are included.
Read The Gateway “Ads.”
MEDIEVAL STATUE’S VALUE
REALIZE AFTER 600 YEARS
LINCOLN, Eng., Feb. 19.—For
long regarded as of very little value,
the statue of Queen Margaret on the
side of the south porch of the cathe
dral here, has now been acclaimed
by an authority on architecture as
“possibly the finest and most per
fect example of merieval portrait
sculpture left in Europe.”
Search is now being made for
the name of the sculptor. After 600
years of expose only the hands and
the lower parts of the draperies are
appreciably damaged.
Proponents of Goading
Bill Offer Rebuttal
WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.—Rebuttal
testimony by proponents of the Good
ing bill was offered today before the
House Commerce committee.
James A. Ford, secretary of the In
termediate Rate association, declared
the system the railroads are trying j
to put in is causing congestion of J
population under unfavorable condi
tions, and is driving small industries '
out of business.
The wool growers in Idaho and ad- j
joining states, he contended, were un
til recently, forced to ship their wool
west to the Pacific coast and then
eastward to the Atlantic seaboard to
reach the market, to take advantage
of what he called “discriminatory
rates.”
Various agencies of government,
Ford contended, have drawn, attention
to the point that railroad rates are
detrimental to navigation.
“The development of water trans
portation and discrimination against
communities,” Mr. Ford said, in urg
ing the adoption of the Gooding bill,
are the main elements involved. He
introduced into the record communi
cations from farm organizations in
inter-mountain territory favorable to
the bill which declares its purpose
would aid diversification of crops by
putting up industries which would
form a market. Ford denied this was
a jobber’s fight and declared that the
adoption of the bill would not ad
versely affect commerce, but would
make for economy on railroads.

Its opponents, he said, were trying
to magnify minor points in the meas
ure, which the committee could change
if desired, without affecting the prin
ciple of the bill.
BABE RUTH MUST TAKE OFF
THIRTY POUNDS OF FAT
HOT SPRINGS, Ark., Feb. 20.—The
weight of George Herman Ruth is an
all important topic this year in base
ball training cams. It was reluctantly
admitted that the star sticker weighed
245 pounds and he is playing thirty-six
holes of golf by which he hopes to
get down to fighting trim.
Ruth says he faces a tremendous
task in reducing 35 to 40 pounds.
