HAWAII CALLS
f FOR MILK FOR
ITS BABIES
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 3
(I.N.S). —The alarming problem
of getting emergency food sup
plies to the Hawaiian Islands
occupied the attention today of
Federal conciliators, endeavoring
to settle the West Coast maritime
strike of 37,000 workers.
Word came from Governor Jo
seph Plndexter canned milk Is
badly needed for infants.
The Territorial Medication As
sociation warned Poindexter the
infant mortality rate will rise
when the canned milk supply is
exhausted Monday, as it is the
main ingredient of food for 90
per cent of the children under
the age of 2.
The next shipment of food sup
plies from the Atlantic Coast is
not due in Honolulu until Janu-’
'ary 2.
Poindexter wired the Federal
Territories Division in Washing
ton. D. C., and Assistant Secre
tary of Labor Edward F. Mc-
Grady on the Pacific Coast, urg
ing immediate action. ■
Meanwhile, all peace negotia
tions were at a standstill.

Lewis A. Carlin Recalls Days When Police
Enforced 18-Mile Speed Law With Bi
cycle Patrol; Had Fine Record
Born in Southwest Washington,'
Lewis A. Carlin thinks that sec
tion is Just about the best place in
the world to live, and now at 63
he still lives there.
He became a bricklayer as a
youth, but when trade slacked off
he joined the Metropolitan Police
Department in 1896 and gave
many years meritorious service.
A few nights after he had joined
the force and was put on patrol in
the old Fourth Precinct, he had a
terrific battle with the neighbor
hood gang leader who felt it his
duty to beat up every new officer.
But the gangster met his match,
and the young officer gave him a
sound beating and then locked
him up. He had no further trouble
with the gang.
When the bicycle squad was first
organized Mr. Carlin was made a
member, and enforced the 18-mile
speed limit.
Later he was transferred to the
Trtaffic Bureau, and boasts that
W\
in the 13 years he served there he
never once “fixed” a ticket.
Mr. and Mrs. Carlin reside at
800 Seventh St. S. W., where they
SPANISH COMIC STRIPS
Blondie is called Pepita. It
means Josephine. In Sweden
she’s Mitzi och hennes man.
And the Finns gave her the
name, Helmi ja Kickki.

SERUM RUSHED
FROM FRANCE
LITTLE ROCK. Ark., Dec. 3
(1.N.5.)/—A race against death
all the way from Paris, France, to
Little Rock—was terminated to
day, but whether the grim reaper
was defeated remains to be seen.
The British liner, Queen Mary,
and an airplane participated in
the race as a special shipment of
Vincent’s serum was rushed to the
aid of Miss Jaypee Easley, 26, who
is critically ill of streptococcus
veridans.
A previous supply of the serum
had been obtained from Montreal,
Canada, but when it was exhaust
ed medical authorities had to send
to Paris for a new supply.

Nature Effects Cure
Os Wagging Tongue
MEMPHIS. Tenn., Dep. 3 (1.N.5.).
Nature today apparently had af
fected a cure that all the special
ists in Memphis had been unable
to bring about.
Little Emmie Wilson, who had
been chattering almost incessantly
for more than two weeks because
of a strange ailment, stopped talk-I
ing. The 4-year-old child was so
happy over his apparent cure that
he was reluctant to answer nurses
when they spoke to him.
When a doctor asked him if he
didn’t w’ant to talk any more he I
smiled and replied:
“I’d rather just He here and
wait for my mama.”
The child, the son of Mrs. May
Wilson, of Munford, Tenn., was
brought to a hospital here nearly
three weeks ago after he had
started talking and was unable to
stop.
Since then, Memphis specialists
pad vainly tried every known
remedy to bring him relief.
Today his condition was diag
-1 nosed as a rare form of encephali
tis.
