WASHINGTON.—The more you!

Norris began the fight for hls|
woposal alone. Both the Repub- !
can and Demoeratic organizations |
ought him to the end. The powerl
wup and all other interests ac-l
ustomed to lobbying successfullyl
n the existing two-house legisla-|
are - threw their full strength
gainst him. None of the major!
andidates for office supported the !
oform and nearly all members oti
b» candidates for the legislature
pposed it violently. Most news
apers objected.
vet Norris, with an unfamiliar
e, picked up 80 much supportl
nat the one-house legislature won
w about 3 to 2, with a majority’
of 93,000
At the age of 78, paying his own
wenses, Norris flivvered around

found that the politiclans have
she checks and the special inter
ists have the balance.”
Most types of hypoerisy and |
fkullduggery Norris has observed
during 30 years in Congress ar6l
brovided against in the Nebraska |
measure. And in Washington Nor-i
bis is looking forward to the first
on-lame-duck Congress under hls‘

WASHINGTON —(®)— A “good

for peace.
Since the neutral supervisory
commission “will be composed of

Dr. W. W. Brown Says
Disease More Prevalent
Than in Past Decade ‘
In appealing to the people of‘
this community for more care in
prevention of diphtheria, Dr. Wed=
ford W. Brown, local health com
missioner, esent out the following
letter today, which the Banner-
Herald {s pleased to print. in
full:
_ “Athens, Ga, December 7, 1934.
‘Dear Citizens:
“It ig not practicable to write a
personal letter to each parent in
Clarke vourity and yet it is hoped
that all parents will consider as a
personal appeal the request con
tained in the following statement:
“Very definitely diphtheria is to
take its toll in the lives of the
children of Clarke county within
ithe next sixty days,> unless un
usual precautions are observed by
l our people, both old and young.
. “Diphtheria is more prevalent in
the United States at this time
than it has been in the past de
cade. The strain of infection lis
most . easily contracted and in
many instances death follows
within a few days unless heroic
measures, are employed to save
the child.
“A community visited this week
in another county -in the state has
had three deaths from diphtheria
in the immediate past.
“rphere is no need. to be alarmed
but there is urgent need for every
parent to be ‘on the alert for the
first symptoms of @ sore throat
among the ' children of « Clarke
county.
“yf your child is cross and un
well, call your family phisycian.
