DRIFTING T0A-" GOLDEN RULE IS WAR. IS CLlj HELD PANACEA l-iilmr party stands unfettered, more encouraged than any timo since 1!'0 and is ready to start its mission. Louisiana Judge Deplores 'Testimony' of Bloodhound (By Associated Press) NEW ORLEANS, July 7. "Blood hound testimony" savors of supersti tition, according to Charles A. ()Neil, Chief Justice of the Louisiana Su preme Court dissenting from a ma jority opinion upholding a conviction for murder, ''and is as barbarous as witchcraft itself.'' The court affirm ed the conviction of Mitchell Davis, of Franklin parish, found eruilty be cause it was testified a dog followed a trail from the scene of the murder and brought up at Davis' home a quarter mile away, but the dissenting opinion of the Chief Justice has won for the defendant a rehearing of his petition tor a new trial. Mavis was sentenced to life imprisonment. "The ruling that such evidence is admissible is contrary to the weight of authority ami is violative of the lunuamental right of an accused per son to be faced by and to cross exam ine the witness against him," said the Chief Justice. "In a sense, of course, it may be said that the bloodhound does not testify, that his conduct is the subject of the testi mony merely as the circumstance showing guilt of the person trailed by the hound. But this statement,, that the bloodhound does not testify, is only skin deep. The bloodhound,: in such case, is a supposed expert, witness, who cannot give any reason lor his expert opinion of the guilt of the person whom he trails. j io admit such testimony is the same as to sav that testimony of lookers-on would be admissible to! prove that a human 'being with an abnormal sense of smell trailed the person on trial ami pointed him out as the guilty party even if the hu man being eouhl not give any reason for his expert opinion. The adminis tration of iustice is a practical af-! fair. 'Some men put more credence in weird, uncanny, unexplainaible cir cumstances than they accord to sim-i pie facts, and some have more faith even in mediumistic messages from planchettes and ouija boards. , The so-called bloodhound testimony be ing unexplainable, savors of super stition, and is as barbarous and dreadful as witchcraft itself."

Home economics teachers must acquaint themselves with the forward econom ic movements, for their success de pends largely on the co-operation of the consumer, whose ignorance ami opposition will defer the day when better economic and ethical standards nrevail in the industrial world. Mary S. Woolmnn, specialist in vocational education, lloston, Mass., told the American Home Economics Associa tion, National Education Association, at the annual convention here today. She said: "About ninety-six per cent of the dry goods m America arre bought by women. On account of the high costs and difficulties brought about by reconstruction of industries after tiie war, a is now especially neces sary that women buy wisely. They sway the market and unintelligent selection is reflected in output. "Federal legislation for (branding cloth with its content is pending. The ignorant consumer is attracted, for she is assured that by this means she can judge the kind of clotK to buy. This species of legislation has long been opposed by tne American Home Economics Association as it not only sees the futility of the argu ment advanced but knows that the enforcement of the bill, if passed will raise prices of cloth with no cor responding advantages. "The financial world has awaken ed to the need of eliminating wastes in industry and distribution. The red crated American Engineers surveyed six industries, textiles and clothing being included. They have made a report of their findings with sugges tions for improvements. The Depart ment of Commerce and the United States Chamber of Commerce have been working on simplifications by the elimination of unnecessary styles sizes and cartons. "The Bureau of Standards has been called upon for advice by manu facturers' associations who are con sidering reorganizing their method.-, to eliminate waste. Codes of ethic.-; are being drawn betwen interrelated industries to overcome methods ad verse to success. The 'better business commissions are working to remove misleading terms and improve adver tising methods. The opportunity and responsibility for increasing in tex tile matters lies with the teacher of home economics." IVcsa) I5LUE - MOUNTAIN COMPANY MJYS TIMJiER fcANP ( liy tlio Associated DKS MOINKS.
