Case Is Postponed Because of Baby Attorney for Defendant Has Hew Ar rival In His Family and Judge Puts Trial Over. A newborn baby caused the post ponement of the case of Mrs. Frances McCandless. charged with practicing medicine without a license, scheduled to come before District Judge Jones yesterday afternoon. At the request of T. A. Norton, at torney for Mrs. McCandless, who be came a father yesterday, the trial was indefinitely continued. It is expected that It will come up this week, how ever. The case had previously been continued several times. Mrs. McCandless is charged with practicing medicine without a license and with Illegally using the designa tion "M. D." after her name. The complaint against her was signed by Dr. Harry F. McKay of the state board of medical examiners after she had signed a death certificate for Mrs. Mary Obermeier of 328 Main street, who died July IS. Mrs. McCandless lays no claim to being a physician, it is understood, but is a drugless healer. The fact that "M. D." appeared after her name on the death certificate was due to the fact that this designation is printed on all the blanks. She is also aid to have signed the certificate against her will. Bethlehem Steel Hearty Oot By With Their Anti-Armor Plate Plant Propaganda. Washington Aug. 5. (U. P.) That dearly loved institution, "the leave to print," under which congressmen an nually send, postage free, to their con stituents tons of imaginary speeches they never made liberally sprinkled with mythical "laughter" and psy chological "applause" Is to be cur tailed if a bill considered favorably by both houses, passes. A bi-partisan report from the Joint printing committee urges these facts In favor of the bill: million volumes a year, many printed on fine paper and bound In leather, have to be sold as waste paper because no one takes the trou ble to frank them out. Janitors and building superintend ents complain that whole basements are literally tilled with virtual waste paper, so that the government has to rent additional space to store coal and wood. Private manufacturing firms, acting In collusion with senators and mem bers, nave had printed and franked at public expense "puffs" virtual ads though described as "expositions" of their plants,' factories and Industries. Anything Goes Sow. The present rules of both houses are: A member or senator may obtain the printing of anything as a "public document." Sixteen hundred are au tomatically struck off; thereafter the senator or the man he is aiding may have the government printing office strike off as many more as are wished at cost. The senator's frank will send any number. On a "leave to print" in the record, i campaign text books, works on vari ' ous religions, medical theories, etc., i inserted as parts of speeches, tech nically. Then they, or any excerpts of them, are frankable. It took an unusual storm in the senate to prevent Sena tor Penrose from having thus printed the Bethlehem Steel company's anti government armor plate plant propa ganda. A member may say "Mr. President, I ask leave to extend my remarks in the Rscord," and then write at any length or anything. Annual Waste $1,000,000. The new bill provides tor cutting down of departmental documents, all of which are by law required to be printed now, and provides that senate and house committees must examine every document which it is proposed to print. To prevent possible suppres sion of reports which the senate may wioh printed it is prcvided the houses may overrule committee action, or In action. This bill has passed the house at previous sessions and the senate In previous sessions, but if both bodies ever passed It In the same session, it was invariably found the two measures differed slightly, and a compromise never has been reached. The annual waste is estimated at 11, 000. 000, for printing; that for franking cost to the postal depart ment cannot be measured, but it is said to be much more than that.

High Price of Meat Means Few Divorces Washington Physician Advances The ory That Meat Is Stimulating' and Xeats Blood, Causing1 Irritableness. Washington, Aug. 6. Some folks manage to see a silver lining in every thing and one of them Is Dr. D. H. Kress, a physician of Washington, who declares he welcomes the con stant increases in the price of meat, because it means there will be fewer divorces. U1rh0r nrlrea frT- mt mana Vi a t less will be consumed as food by hus bands and wives. Dr. Kress explains. Meat is a stimulating diet and heats the blood.
